  • I would like to start but i just can't memorize the pattern ????
    GUYS I GOT IT but my brain hurts
    Day 1: 50bpm, almost 60 but nit very good
    Day 2: working on 80, going well
    Day 3: can handle 80 now, sometimes gets sloppy, 90 seems beatable pretty easily

  • 1/8/25 Tbh, I'm probably not going to comment every day, but I am committing to start today. I'm also committing to at least follow up here on day 30 and not let my procrastination get in the way of… OH LOOK A SQUIRREL!

  • Just started today October 29th 2024 problem I'm having is the 1010 with the strumming hand tap.. can't get it clean yet. I play upsidedown (not sure if that matters) but every time I pull of to descend I brush the other strings with my finger.. I'm wondering if this is why you are using ring and Middle instead of middle and index

  • Day 1- .75 playback speed at 30bpm never tried tapping before this, and took me forever to follow along all the way through????

  • Thanks so much for the exercise. What are the chords that could be used as a backing rhythm for this?

  • goddamit, fuck this, it's like I have to have every part memorized, I just don't have the answer yet how to master this. Maybe I just don't like it somewhere internally, but, no I do. Keep trying. Mar. 6, 2024 still getting hung up on 50 bpm. Different fingers hammer on in spots from before weeks, so there is that evolution.

    Great exercise. It's funny because I don't really like how it sounds, but you're right, I do love playing it! I'm about 300% better at tapping over the span of 5 days, thanks!
