Re: Week 6: Rise of the Maestro

Re: Week 5: The Guitar Awakens

@Eric Phillips Another very nice post. Beautiful tone and musicality. My one humble suggestion is to watch the left hand squeaks. I think once you have it memorized,…

Re: Week 4 - Return of the Finisher 🏆

Re: Week 4 - Return of the Finisher 🏆
