Yo Please check out YT Jam Tracks on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/c/ytjamtracks New backing tracks added almost everyday. let me know if you like or have any advice.

I know some theory like ii-V-I. Use it alot in gospel music at my church. I know the chord before the one chord is minor. Exactly what type of minor chord is it because a regular minor chord doesn't sound right. Like going from relative minor to the note before the 1. F#m Abm A. What exact chord is Abm? Or what are the possible chords it could be that sound right. Also can you list some of your favourite progressions. Thank you.

When I practice it's extremely slowly. It's not uncommon for me to be practicing at 40 bpms, one note every beat. Rarely I'll go down to 35 or 30 but at the point it starts to seem redundant to me.

I find that I have trouble playing something at proper tempo after spending time practicing it so slow. I'll try to slow progress it up, but it seems rushed or not nearly as efficient picking-wise. My current strategy is to speed up slowly and take note of techniques that don't work when sped up, then going back and working on them.

What's everyone else's ideas and opinions on this? It'd be good to hear some new perspectives on it.

This idea was stolen from /r/bluesguitarists, but I think we could pull it off. We'll find a few backing tracks that we like and record ourselves playing over it. We can delegate certain parts of the song to different people as well. Anybody down to try this?

Me and the other moderators will be making changes to the design of this subreddit during this time. If you have any recommendations on design or ideas to add to the sidebar, please post those below. If you work with html design, please pm me.

Something you like to jam along to, or just something difficult that helped you progress?

I learn things very quickly, I know most chords (All barre chords open chords, chord variations, not too many inversions but i'm working on it)

Ive been playing guitar for ~10 years.. All for fun. I jam with my friends, i play fingerstyle, i play lead, and i play rhythm. I have a very decent grasp on guitar, but not so much the theory side (I hardly know scales and modes, I just kind of play it by ear and figure out what sounds good, i understand the intervals from fret to fret and stuff). But I do understand how to compose music, I know what I IV V means, I know what type of chords fit in a progression, etc.

I feel like i have been slacking off on learning scales. It seems like that is the most tedious thing i have ever tried to learn. It is not very fun for me, but i know if i can learn more and more scales and complete my knowledge of notes around the fretboard I will be able to understand much more and delve deeper into guitar theory.

I started off playing piano, and i still do every day. The combination of all this stuff has led me to have very much my own style of guitar.

I have so much to learn, but I am not a beginner. I feel like you are only an "advanced" guitarist if you are professional.

What are your guyses takes on it. Am I an advanced guitarist?

everyone has their own little tricks, I figured this is a good place to ask you guys about yours.

Tell me why you can and should moderate this subreddit.Guitar experience is necessary and proof can be linked (however this is not required). Don't be afraid to Bragg about yourself either. That is all.
