And how would you descripe tremolo picking?

It's just fast picking, when the notes blur together?

No, tremolo picking just means picking the same note over and over again as fast and smoothly as possible. It comes from mandolin technique, where the player has to pick in that way to create the illusion of sustain, as a mandolin possesses virtually none.

:agreed: Man o man, it was the bomb diggity. It was penultiumate heavy.

I loved how we arranged it for 2 guitars with me playing the higher parts with distortion, flanger, delay, and chorus and you playing the lower parts with just crazy heavy distortion. Indeed, it was penultimate heavy. :cool:

So... It means that, REALY fast and smooth and possibly? So it doesn't matter how much time I pluck the string, just the lenght of time I do it, or...? I can find the right words :wallbash:

Definitely. The night you, me, and Nate hung out was the coolest time during my 2 week stay. We shoulda hung out more.

Besides, I still remember how to play about 70% of Kashmir.

The other thing... there is a simple metal riff, how sould I find out the key of the riff? Hope you understand...

Thanks un advance!!!

This one, you just kinda analyze the notes and see what sharps and flats there are. Also, if you had a certain chord in mind with it, you could go by that too.

:ugh: ... sorry but I don't understand this... here's an example..., the riff contains these notes: E,G,C, and A#... in which key is it in?

Well I sould rename this thread to "quastions from Brett"... but I don't want to open a new one for this... so...

Is it fully legal to play other bands songs on a concert? I mean, you know I would play some songs from my band and some from other, bigger bands (Morbid Angel offcores :)

IIRC it's fine provided you don't record and release it.

It's so disturbing that when I've got the right mod for guitarplaying, I turn on my combo, and turn the overdrive on (becouse I think I hear my mistakes better) I get a headache from it! :( And it happens very often, but why? Is my tone so bad or what? :D Sould I change something or it's not a big deal? You never had any problem like this?

Thanks in advance!

Do you have too much 'Presence' or 'Treble' on your amp? Do you play extremely loud without using ear protection (musician's ear plugs?)
I can't think of any other reasons you might be getting a headache from playing.

My amp hasn't got a Presemce, in the EQ, everything is in the middle, I tried that I cut the highs but It didn't help. Well, I have a 15W amp and I don't turn the volume more then 5... so I don't know :scratch:

My dumb brother :)taunt: ) and his band practice soo loud that after a song, I don't hear 100%-ly... they say it's not a problem for them... :ugh:
