Ask Instructor David Barrett

Hi, David

 I am coming to the end of my 1 month of lessons Hohner. I want to study them more. What do I do? Thank you Jesse Britton. Brittonjesse5@gmail.com

Working through these lessons, I realize I'm not moving my jaw at all.  I'm using a combination of hands and head motion.  At first attempt, the jaw motion seems very uncomfortable and unnatural to me.  Is this something I should spend time on to correct?

I am working on chorus 6, Temperature, Level 2. The 5 draw slap, and draw slaps in general, sound weak to me. Can you offer any suggestions for improving draw slaps?

Hi Dave,

In your Level 4 video in Accompaniment study 4 "Chording under vocals", you mention that there are some V-IV-I licks I can use in 'Improvising study 4', but I cannot find Improvising study 4. I have searched the lessons and it shows Improv study three and then the next seems to be study seven. Could you please point me in the right direction.

Many thanks

sorry dave , I think I may have asked this already but could not find it?? On the scales you have 10 blow written then 10+ is this an overblow ?? if so where do you teach how to do ?? 

David - I purchased a 15 watt Monoprice Stage Right amp with the same tube configuration as the Fender Blues Jr. I am new to tube amps and wanted to make a tube change out from one of the AX-7 tubes to an AY-7 tube (same as you did in Blues Jr. review). My assumption is the amp I bought is modeled after the Blue's Jr or a knock-off of it. continue reading...

hello David I have a little question for you which must surely have already been asked on a level how long do you think we should spend there after I guess it is in relation to our own progress imagine I said one thing how long a month a week 15 days? if you don't get there properly, it is better to move on to another exercise or level and come back to it afterwards ?? thank you David for your answer !!

hello David houa sacred piece has learned that this one has a job and a lot of technique at the same time I love thank you !!
