Thanks for posting this Bill! I missed a few days checking the forum so I am just seeing this today. I think you are making fantastic progress! That’s not an easy lead to execute and I can hear the melody clearly. You are definitely on the right track and the speed will come as they say from the repetition moving from muscle memory to the subconscious.
I am on vacation with my wife right now but when we return and I get a little more practice in I will attempt to post an update on how I am doing with the AC/DC lead.
Thanks again Bill. I do appreciate you sharing…it just another way to support each other in this journey.
Best, Mike
Thanks Mike and I am with you 100% on the community supporting each other. For many of us, sadly, this will be our last attempt to try and learn guitar. If my video helps other students see that this is difficult but doable - at least to the point that a listener can identify the tune - that is cool to me.
And yes, for me, this is a complicated piece of music. I do get mind blocks on stuff like this. Back in '24 I taught myself the bass lines for Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon" album. I remember the song "Time" in particular. It was really tough to wrap my head around. Timing is all over the map and I felt like I was chasing the bass line most of the time.
When you are comfortable with posting, I would enjoy seeing how you are making out.
Hope you guys are having a nice vacation!
Bill
This year the diet is definitely gonna stick!
