Nice and you can hit the high note on "dream".
I call for a full version with only the foot tap for backing!

You've certainly jumped your practice up a level by the sounds and, like all your benchmarks, that never goes backwards!

Superb stuff!
D to D at 140 is a major breakthrough!
Might sound crazy but it's not unusual when I meet a long-time casual player, I find that they have been carrying baggage forever that means, when put to the lab-condition test, their D to D is actually "XXX"!
Hopefully the biggest breakthrough of all is the realisation that you got all that improvement by yourself!
Nice one "Johnny Guitar"!

Not been in here for a while myself! You snuck this one in under the radar I see just before this morning's session!
It's all running nicely (chord changes in fine order) and should make a interesting one for a redo too when the extras we saw today are bedded in.

NIce one John - eminently listenable! Strayed a little from the beat at about the 3 minute mark but pulled back in by the end.
Keep 'em coming!

Good to see you hard at work in the guitar gym!
I reckon the magnifying glass (listening to the sound each string makes individually while keeping the whole chord moving) would highlight a couple of issues in each of those clips.
See if you can spot them and we'll dig a little tomorrow!

A world of difference! Strays a little after a few reps but starts off right on the money! It's worth thinking about aiming finger 1 back to the first note of the pattern while the bend is still held, to eliminate the need to jump hand position.
Keep 'em coming! 😊

A bit of foot tapping inspiration in a style you may appreciate!

That will do nicely for a first marker! Tightening the timing looks to be top of the list but won't take long and the catalyst will of course be the foot tap in tandem with an out-loud count!
Listening back at 50% or even 25% speed while tapping along ought to highlight the problem.
We can take a look tomorrow and it should be ready for a rock-solid retake very soon!

Nice one Seb! For the reader's benefit that's up from 100bpm on Wednesday evening.
My prescription for the fastest run to 200bpm would be to limit all movement in the body to the foot or maybe even just the toes! That should allow you to keep everything more robotic which will etch the pattern clearer and deeper.
Will look forward to the next update!

Notes are all there for sure! What can you spot if you listen back and tap your foot throughout in rock-solid time with the metronome click?
