    the amount of Protest songs you cover is nuts. I feel like ive been struggling with all these riffs for over a decade

      This is my 3rd time learning Fortress, so I'm pretty comfortable with these song already. But just follow the time tested method of 1) using a metronome 2) don't bump up the BPM unless you are nailing every note every time at the current speed. I'm considering doing a video on how to set a click track to any track with Reaper when I'm done with this. Also, record yourself playing. I can't even explain the gains I've made doing these videos and watching myself ham-fist hard sections.

      Can't stress adding a click track enough. If you want to try to figure it out on your own. Here's a quick guide for the easy method. 1. Export MIDI from GP tabs. 2. Drag them into Reaper (or DAW of choice). It will automatically build the time signature markers and you'll have a click track. 3. Line up the song with the click track and you're all set.
      I then like to set up regions around each song part for making things easy to find. Now you can easily loop any part, slow it down, pan to get just Luke or Tim, do whatever. This was the single most important thing to improving my playing when I started doing these videos.
      There's some catches and things that can go wrong with the import that have to be fixed. I recommend Scurrilous or later albums to do this easy. They all seem to have been recorded to a click. Some of Fortress was but not all of it.

    man that was so tightly played. the beginning sounds tighter than the album. I cant wait for your own stuff after you are done with pth. on the other hand I kinda hope the new album drops before that and I can learn some new songs by watching your videos

      I wish I could play as clean as those guys. My hands still don't always agree on what speed they wanna go so I end up with lots of clicky/twangy sounding notes.

    Did you arrange the synth solo yourself? That was incredible

      Yeah, I transposed it to guitar, then tweaked what I ended up with to be playable at that speed. The tabs for those are in the video description if you are interested.

      Oh, no. I absolutely make a franken-song out of my recordings. I just make sure I get a take where my fingers are in the right spot for every note so people can learn from them properly. It would probably take an extra month on each song and that would suck the fun out of it for me. That and trying to hit all the right pinch harmonics would probably make me rip my hair out. Missing a pinch harmonic at the end of one of the longer songs would probably make me chuck my guitar through a window lol.

    You crushed this one dude. Love the synth guitar solo's, 4:16 sounds perfect with those pinched harmonics, and your tapping has gotten just godlike, so clean and crisp. Might even like that solo more the original synth tone.
