    It's crazy how fast you progressed!
    When I was 3 or 4 months in, I was still at the "okay listen to this...no wait, start over...crap...let me try that again" stage.

    You, Lexi Rose, have progressed so much during these few years... Looking back, you can see just how smooth, cool and so much better your guitar playing abilities have become. This feels not only fun to watch, looking at how well you pulled off some of those crazy shreds, which I love, but it must also have made you feel truly satisfied and proud of your improvement. This journey looks really inspiring... How you did justice and nailed many of the crazy hard songs we know and love - real cool.

    I have been playing guitar for almost 25 years (still learning, still progressing, still refining my techniques), so, I've about forget the feeling of being "fresh" . I still have some recordings from like 2007 and then some from 2018-2019 ( I haven't recorded much in the last few years, life has been something else lately...) and it's always good to go back and check them out. I have a few tracks, that I still play, and I like to go back and listen to the first time, I ever played it - I often will get maybe 1 bar of a riff and then will hit record and sort of improvise a whole song idea, out of it. I have a few of those from back in the day and it's fun to see the progress and to see the original idea. Always make a habit of documenting your song progress, if possible, because it's a good way of gauging progress and documenting the idea before it get's too convoluted.
    I'm rambling but great progress, Lexi, keep it up!

    Hi Lexi, new sub here! I just saw ur progress clips as well as several other videos of you playing and I’m very impressed! I’ve been playing for over 40 years n I’ve toured for 20 of those years and I can honestly say that you just inspired me to learn some of those solos that I grew up hearing like VHs “ice cream man”, It’s like no matter how much u play there will always be something new (or old) to learn. I like how u go from Pink Floyd to Pantera bc those are also two main influences for me. Great job!

    Hey Lexi! Real cool to see your progress. I definitely agree with you that a guitarist's skill can be measured by their ability to bend strings and vibrato. Oftentimes that's one of the first things I notice when I observe other people's playing. Have to give you props on your trem bar skills! Keep shredding all my favorite tracks! 🤘

The fret spacing and the width of the neck are pretty wide. But hey, thanks for sharing. Love to see stuff like this. Especially since you're so good now. ❤
    And I'm gonna go ahead and boast and say that the first time I actually tried playing guitar I could do the double hammer-ons in Metallica's cover of "Am I Evil." Went from that to being chief songwriter and singer/lead guitar player in two thrash metal bands (the first was like Slayer+Megadeth, and the second was like King Diamond+Death). And I've played around 70 live shows. Anyways, it's been a long time since then. But one day, when I write a few more books, I shall return...

    Well lex... That's why they call it rock and roll.... It's not supposed to be perfect like jazz or anything like classical music to the note to the note it's all depends on where your heart is... And how well you want to play you know some of the greatest songs are just three chords three notes and the right beat. The bright side is at least you started at a young age I didn't pick a guitar up until I was 40 years old... And you will find out how good your hands really are when you get to the certain points in life my advice from somebody that's been sitting on a fence and around it....🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Keep playing keep learning
