Hey all,

I play for one month now, i can do parts of high bells and orion.
I tried eyes of the tigers, the first on songsterr, well, I’m not ready yet. Total fail 🫠.

Im now going on game of throne’s main thème.

After the introduce, here my asking.
What do you have in your bag, who can be “ez” and btw learn technics, chords (for fingers, brain will come later for me) ? 🤔

PS : almost forgot brother Jacob 😂.
Ps2 : I’m playing on an electric, if that’s important 🤘

Ty all,
I need inspiration I guess 🙂

    Im pretty sure my first one was Rape Me by Nirvana. Not the classic SLTS because the string changes were too much for me while learning power chords at the same time 😄

      I feel u, 😅

      I’m learning in same time power chords with palm mute, and not down stroke but the one when u go back and forth.

      There is a lot of work omg ^^

      Why do I like metal/rock etc XD.

        Sounds great! I’d suggest to go for one thing at a time though. Doing muted power chords with alternate picking is tough to get right, even more advanced players don’t do it very often (and I’d say I’m unable to do it very well neither). Most times, doing downstrokes only on palm mutes sounds way better as you’ll always hear the pick direction, and you sacrifice a lot of punch when the power chords alternate in their quality.

        That said, keep going! \m/

          Yeah clearly.
          I’m not going hard on the alternate, just few minutes then an then during my sessions.

          No frustration bc I’m really bad at it.
          I’m doing that BC of the pulp fiction’s opening theme.

            Ah alright! If you’re aiming for the main melody though, those notes are not power chords. I’m sure you know this, but from your posting I drew the impression you were practicing alternate picking on palm muted power chords. ;)

              Yeah exactly.

              Sorry I’m not clear.

              I started alternate picking because of pulp fiction. I can’t do it obviously.
              So I train it (Ap), not in power chords though.

              For example, I do AP on the first “E” then power chord in palm mute.
