Hi, I am in my late sixties and have played guitar for many years. I played in a few bands in my late teens - mostly teen clubs and church teen groups. I continued to play as an individual for fun - and as a stress reducer. I always felt that I needed to increase my speed - thus far with guitar tricks I am attempting to keep better timing and slow the metronome until I feel comfortable increasing the speed. I am interested in techniques/exercises for increasing speed. Guitartricks is a great help so far.
