This site is a great resource for me. Been visiting GuitarTricks for a week or two and I like it. Both content and design-wise. Easy to use the site.

I've been playing on and off for a few years and frankly I suck. Seeing people contribute their skills to a site like this is good enough motivation for me to read and hopefully pratice it too. I've been taking up some speed-picking lessons (face it, lots of us want to play fast to impress ourselves and others =) and it's been going great. I've tried to study and trained on the accuracy aswell as the speed now. I'm trying to pick in differente ways, scales etc. to improve strenght, speed and accuracy. I have actually become much better at this within days!

Today I've been practicing since 5am to 8pm as much as my body managed and I'm feeling more confident and I know it's given me a better result.

This sounds like some ****ing advert but you people and your lessons/exercises have defintely helped me and my playing. I wish only there were these great articles about sex!

Nice to have audio examples to listen to aswell.

Peace out and thanks everyone. Hopefully I can put together some Tricks to guide newbies aswell. Peace out.
