Hi from Yorkshire, England!
I must say that I’m finding this vibrato technique a lot easier than yesterday’s. -
This is a great exercise. Are we going to learn a song that has this in it ?
-
Don’t know if I am really doing it correctly but I am doing it by flexing my finger. Bracing at the heal of my index finger.

Howdy from Seattle, Washington! My fretting finger tips are getting a workout but finding joy in the process of becoming tougher together.

Hello from southern Illinois. I really enjoy reading the other TAC member comments. Lets me know other members struggle on many of the same things I do. Also get good ideas from other members on the forum. This week has been pretty doable so far. I like it. Have fun. 🙂

Virbrato does make the sound more interesting. Creating some musical phrases.

I know it wasn’t intentional, but I found myself playing part of Chop Sticks… lol. I found yesterday’s vibrato technique easier than today’s, but will keep working at it. It’s nice to have options.

Hello from Inverurie, Aberdeenshire, Scotland in the UK. Started in January and sticking with the program. In almost every lesson here Tony says to go and listen to the artist he’s emulating and then gives you the technique, so you can recognise it and know the mechanics and, with practice, be able to go and play it yourself.
These lessons are a starting point to becoming a player and it is called a program rather than a song by song site.
For me, it’s coming back every day to do a bit and then re-playing or expanding on what I’ve been taught when I have more time. Breakdown 10,000 hours into 10 minutes a day and you’ll be an expert in 164 years.
Wise up, make the best of what you are being taught and go find the joy in playing whether it’s just for you, for your family or with a bunch of like-minded amateurs. -
I´m from Hamburg, Germany.

A little shaky!
-
I’m in Phoenix. This is the best part of my day!
When do we get to learn a riff from Hendrix or Ray Vaughan! -
good way to build up callouses!courtesy of the G string, thanks…

Chiming in from Indy. Indianapolis, Indiana that is. This vibrato stuff is pretty fun! That doesn’t mean I think I’m good at it, but it’s cool to try and make the guitar generate these different sounds.
Congratulations, !
Challenge complete
Come back tomorrow for your next challenge
