Re: What do you think about the tonebase Practice Plans? Hi everyone, I am a bit stuck with the Practice Plan, as one of the videos (about Rasgueado) seems not to be accessible any more. So, I cannot finish the plan. Any thoughts?

Re: Week 1: Improve your Recording Skills @Neil Macmillan I was thinking the same. Even in my case, using a simple smartphone and not treating the output at all. Now I wish my training room was bigger !

Re: Week 1: Improve your Recording Skills @martin Thank you for the comments and for leading us through this experiment. Yes, indeed, playing in the corner felt good. I wish I could use more than one mic and balance the sounds in that…

Re: Experience with Alaska Picks Listening to your playing during the Carcassi challenge makes me think they are doing a good job in terms of tone. I wonder if the difficulty with the thumb is due to the fact that, with this finger,…
