Let me know what you guys think of my guitar playing. (Amateur)

Been recording a little lately in a spare bedroom with some cheap equipment. Let me know what you guys think. Feel free to give criticism but please be specific, rather than just saying "you suck".

Sounds great! Scales are tough to get down but ounce you have them you can do just about anything with any style of music.

 

[bigwebb83]

thanks. I'm trying to become more chord oriented so it doesn't sound so much like random playing up and down the scale.

pretty *****in.

what do you use for your drums? ive been trying to use my keyboard but it isnt working so well.

also - you a fan of eric johnson or al dimeola? they do some amazing guitar work.

are you planning on adding words?

 

[broncosi]

yea man YEAH!! i jammed and did my homework for an hour listening to this stuff.

Sounds pretty tight

Btw, I was initially afraid to listen because of your scary avatar.

Man, that's pretty good stuff. The only constructive criticism I can give is this:

Work on your feeling. I only listened to 3 tracks, but I heard and felt the same thing on all three....which is, the phrasing and timing you have feels just a little too forced. Like you have planned out what you want to play regardless of how it "feels". Several times your phrases got off time just a little, and usually only for a note or two or three, nothing bad. It's really just those little things that keep me from hearing a much much much better (read: famous) guitar player playing when I close my eyes and just take it in. If you could get a little more fluid and a little more accurate with your timing, you'd be amazing.
