Original lesson: Five Finger Death Punch by Gabriel Leopardi
So first Level 3 lessons! I really enjoyed this groovy lesson by Gabriel! The part that sounds funny with the 1-1-0-1-1 is played by me according to the Gabriel's performance, which is different than the backing track's recorded guitars...That is why a sound of gap occurs. Hope you like it! |

More good stuff!! This one is heavy on vibrato and you are developing a very strong vibrato technique. It's very important to be able to do vibrato with a single finger or with two or with three, just depending on what you are trying to play. Your timing is also quite good and with this type of piece, timing is everything as everything is synched to the kick drum. If you drift out of time with the kick drum, the entire thing just sorta falls apart. The good news is you never drift. Solid lock.
The one thing I did notice that threw me a bit was the bending toward the end. It's very very very close but could use just a pinch more as it sounded just a faint bit flat. Nailing bends is part and parcel to playing lead and you will get plenty more chances to work this out. This is the only bit that is keeping me from giving you a higher score but still good enough for a solid 7 from me!

Hi mate!! Great job here!!
I'm checking the lesson, and the problem is that the backing track that you've used is the jamtrack, and not the normal tempo one. I'll send you a message with the right backing. Regarding your playing, this is a very good take. I have to say that your rhythm work here is flawless, there is nothing relevante to mark regarding this. The lead section (the chorus) has some elements to improve. The first thing that I note is that there are timing issues in some of those phrases. Besides that, your vibrato is not as consistent as for the riffs, and there are some pitch issues when you bend. Other than that, this is a cool take. Work on those details and share a new take in aroung one week. Gab.- -------------------- My lessons
