IDK I think it was more stylish the old way, like a wet guitar track Now its dry When is it going to be available? I personally like the red line. I think it is kind of badass. IDK... lol This is why I'm asking for you guy's help on this. I really appreciate all the help!!! You guys rule! If everything goes right, the book should be available next week. It is a lot of work writing a book. ;D Been working on it for 3 years.

DONE..... ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I know I said I was almost done weeks ago, but I had to proof read it a million times. 50,000 words is a lot to proof read. I keep finding really small typos and stuff. I would make minor corrections and then reread the whole thing. Got to love it. I know there inevitably will be some small errors, but I am trying my best to minimize anything like accidentally writing "form" instead of "from." I think I only did that like 30 times. haha
I'm working out the details on the digital delivery part. The book needs a small bit of formatting to make her look sexy and I need to add all the pics, convert her... and then... drum roll...... release. I just finished the audio and proofing. She is about ready to go. soooooooooooo close.

Badass, I can't wait. You have anything about remaining relaxed and avoiding tension? And since when are you married, Joel? (Congrats, by the way).

there is was a thread about Joel getting married in announcements i think \m/ I have preordered alexi laihos book, and soon it will be possible to acquire joels book as well! I guess Ill have shitload to do this summer Recently I felt like I lack motivation, I havent practiced to a metronome much (like 10 mins a week) in a month or two, and it almost feels like I have reached my level of technique and I wont be improving much after today. All of the licks that I have learnt in last months I have just kept hammer-practicing without a metronome and just tried to make them clean with fast playing. I really need some kick in the ass hehe

thanks mate! I have heard some of these but that neoclassical sweep guy is on my favourites list now. I promised myself that the second I finish my last test I shalt resume metronomed sweepage practicage. For some reason my alt pickage improved and cleaned up without metronomed practice.

Alt pickage will do that, Torkin.
My kick in the ass is twofold: my wrist is better now, and I'm going to be taking lessons with Mike Campese now. *flex!*

Yes, there is a ton about avoiding tension and being relaxed while playing.
I've also got a 36 minute audio thing for those who need a kick in the ass to get motivated.
I cover 29 different main topics and well over over 100 sub topics. This is not your typical guitar book.
I'm just putting all the book pics together today, getting my server set up and getting e delivery software ready to go..... she will be ready shortly.....
