Awareness, focus, intention, musicality. These are the hard parts of practice, but the payoff is HUGE. I think I will watch this video on a regular basis to help me cement these critical practice qualities. Thanks for this type of video. Rarely covered on RUclips.
I started learning guitar 4 years ago, I’ve practice every day for an hour or two but I recently recognised that my ‘technique’ needs more time and attention. I’ve amassed 40 tunes that I play and continue to practice in the expectation that I’ll get better but what I find is that I’m just too sloppy. You’d recognise the tunes no problem from my playing but they’d be riddled with various mistakes, inaccurate finger fret placement leading to buzzing or muting, slowing to get difficult chord transitions completed, lacking musicality because I’m concentrating on finger movements rather than the sound I’m making. I’m now spending my time focussing on each of these issues, slowing down the tempo of each song, they’re still very recognisable and pleasing to hear even at 50% speed. And for the most difficult chord transitions I’m spending lots of time just moving between them so my fingers get the transition naturally locked in. It’s also much more enjoyable playing with less mistakes and I know the speed will come.
Rhythmic syncopation is one thing I'm working on, expanding what I listen to and how I listen in hopes of a more articulated chacing of passing thoughts and emotions..... thanks I always appreciate how you teach.... 😊

At 7'41".... do I hear the delay going descending? What's going on with that?
