So, I know I said last night that today was feeling like it might be an electric sort of day. That idea was all well and good, except for the simple fact that, when I got into the studio tonight, I headed straight for the acoustic so that I could keep going on the couple of lessons I had been working on last night.
I finished up the lesson on adding bass lines pretty quickly. There are still going to be a few things to sort out in that regard, recurring things to focus on and so forth. One of those has to do with always making sure to find the easiest ways to fret the bass notes within the overall context of the chord progression.
After that, I moved on to the lesson on "sus" chords that I touched on last night. I'm feeling better about that one tonight than I was yesterday, but there are still a few spots that need touching up. Mostly, it comes down to finger strength on acoustic with the barre chords up the neck. Knowing what they are, and where to play them has never been an issue, however.
I know I've said it before, but it strikes me every night, that this acoustic focus does a brilliant job of highlighting all of the little things that need improvement. Still, at the end of the day, I'm definitely able to say that I'm seeing improvement in my playing on a regular basis. And that's all I'm really looking for.
Good day today. And a mostly free weekend coming up. Can't wait to see where that takes me.
