I need help getting out of my scalar rut. I do need ear training actually. I have a voice teacher that lives next door to me and I would be dumb not to take advantage of that. I can usually sing a melody or solo, but I can never translate it to guitar, and If I try it gets so discombobulated it doesn't sound anything like what imagined and I don't remember what the original was supposed to sound like. ADD for ya! |

How can I overcome the fear of performing in front of an audience? Close your eyes and pretend you're playing for yourself and no one is there. I usually get more nervous playing to a smaller crowd of people then I do for a much larger one. It's all in your head anyway, I've seen guys play that were HORRIBLE and they weren't nervous at all, just enjoying themselves, others who play beautifully were super nervous. it's all a matter of confidence. |

Glossary of Guitar Effects could we also make tags fro these that have this info? maybe effects-compression, or more hierarchicallike: effects-modulation-chorus. |

What kind of effects make this Korn sound? what does "dimed" mean? I've been playing a long time and have never heard that term before. Is it when all the levels are jacked up to 11? |
