I wanna know if this is fast, and in what level (bpm) do u think is quite fast.

Thank u!!!!!!! :) :D


I dont think so!! (but in saying that if u have a recording of u playing at 300bpm then i will admit im wrong but i gotta hear it first) I have that dvd and even John breaks down at something just over 200bpm :eek: and 200bpm is fast even for John.. and remember ur technique must be clean at ur higest speed.. 16th notes at 300bpm could probably open up a wormhole and suck u in....!!
