Of course I paid attention though not to hit the 7th string. I was relaxed though Hope you like it! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

This is a tough one for a 7 string as all these big strummy chords are gonna temp you to hit that big low B and cause a LOT of string noise. if you hit that bit low B one time you would hear it big time. The good news is, you managed to keep it muted and and still kill it with the big chords. Nicely done!!! Good timing, big chords, all round well done! Solid 7 from me.

I've tried to detect relevant issues on this one and the only things that I've noted are that sometimes the chord changes can be smoother (mostly when the distance between chords is bigger) and there are some moments when the rhythm can be tighter, but all these are VERY small details that will be fixed soon. Your playing is consitent in most of the take, so you have an 8 from me. Keep rocking! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

To fix the glitches between the chords (as Gab mentioned) I would recommend practicing those chord changes alone - to make sure you can do them without having to think. Remember to practice the changes at a tempo that is way below your comfort speed. You get an 8 from me, well done! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I really dig the path you choose, not just because these ae my lessons, but because you decided to recheck all the basic mechanics of both hands before going to something harder. I see no big issues here. Only tiny timing problems - usually in fornt of the beat and some chords changes could be even tighter. All these are nothing serious.
