I think slow breeds both control and speed. � Slow is before all. The slower
you can play a piece the faster you will be able to play it latter with

The slower you approach a piece, �the faster you will learn it. �I believe
that if the first time you play a piece you play it so slowly that you make
no mistake, put your guitar away and come back after 5 hours, you will have
pretty much mastered that piece, other things considered, such as is the

This is true of learning the left hand and learning pieces, but
learning the right hand is a different matter. With the right hand
you must start with speed before you add control. It weird, but I
believe it to be true. The right hand on must be able do a few things
very well or you won't be able to play at all. You must find the
freedom of the im alternation and the arpeggio movements before you
begin serious work. im should be able to alternate on one string at
around 150mm before you begin pounding through scales. The tremolo
should also be fluent and not fatigue before you slow it down to learn
control. If you don't get that very subtle feeling in the right hand,
it won't work no matter how much you practice slowly.
