yarrrrr welcome aboard.

lets see, well all i really have to say is that you should get a metronome.

start playing this riff, and slowly increase the speed of the metronome, and likewise your playing speed.

keep doing that, and you'll get faster and faster, as well as more and more accurate.


good luck :cool:

Welcome to the boards. Speed comes with accuracy, and accuracy comes with practice.
Blues is easy to play, but hard to feel.
