New Tremelo

Hey Tommo, I’m finally back after sorting out that I had two accounts, Duh’ I tried to keep it consistent, forearm pronated, small motion, trying not to hit adjacent strings.

Trying to Polish with Pick - Not yet

Just checking to see if anything is moving in the right direction?

0.70 Pick

Compared to my 2.0mm it feels really weird, but I am see some translation from one to the other.

Pronation take 2b

Pronation Take 2a

Pronation 45 #2

Pronation 45 degree tilt

This seems like there might be something to this.

Phantom then Pick

Yikes!

Phantom Groups 2

Phantom Groups Fast

I tried to be aware of my pulses. When I got going I lost the pulse, but it did feel better, and I believe faster for longer duration. Thanks Tommo. Eager to hear what you have to say.

Phantom 3

Phantom 2

Phantom 1

Holding fingers as if I would have a pick, Polishing the strings, by vid 3 trying to make smaller movements.

Phantom three

Same as one and two, my worst.

Phantom Two

Phantom one

Less pressure fore finger to thumb on all three of these, trying to “Polish” the G string, again, all three.

Phantom pick exercise

Happy New Year. Tommo! Thank you for your time and effort!! I have an issue, I can never find where to send you messages or to reply to each one of your critiques, this is wasting time as you are not being notified when I upload an exercise. Can you give me a link to your mailbox, or better yet tell me how I navigate to where I post a reply, so I am not losing time? Thanks again Tommo, and a Happy New Year to you and yours ??

Thanks for the guidance, Tommo, and Happy New Year!!!

Chunking, Up, take 2

Though I don’t have speed when I play tge Two-note sequence, I believe I am isolating my wrist movements much better, thoughts?

Chunking

I gave it three tries, both directions, either way I felt very uncomfortable and when it came time to perform the two stroke movement it got even worse, Meh!

Single string exercise

It doesn’t look like my last attempt to upload worked, trying again. I tried to follow your instructions, I am not sure I did right, if not let me know where I failed and I will reshoot. I tried using just my wrist as in my last scratch test, but I was too slow, so I reverted back to my normal tremolo technique, there was breaks in my two efforts, let me know what to do next, thank you, Tommo, and have Happy Holidays uf I don’t hear back from you until January. I am very excited to be in this journey with you. It was my D string BTW.

Single String Exercise

I did my best to follow instructions and tried my darndest to use just my wrist but I am too slow, I used my normal Tremelo technique, much faster, though there were breaks in my first and second attempts.

Scratch test 3

Tommo, I have been concentrating on isolating my wrist movement in my daily playing, I believe I am making so progress. I look forward to your critique and you will have me do next.

Scratch Test Redo

Tommo, i have been practicing isolating my wrist movement in my daily playing. I think I am improving a little bit.
