A few of you may have noticed the new link at the top of the forum, but we now have a www.sevenstring.org lessons page. I've got a number written, but have only coded out the first one. It's still pretty ghetto as my html skills are on par with those of a medium rare steak, but as they improve so will the appearance.

I'll have a few more up by tomorrow afternoon, I hope - feedback welcome. Have fun!

Looks good!

simple is good.

good idea on the power tab file too! however, as much as i like them, i can't get them to run in my windows emulator (Wine) on my Fedora3 machine

Hmm.

Well, I'll just have to practice my ass off and try to get a clean mp3 recording done as close to tempo as I can hit it

- if anyone else wants to take a shot, feel free, because my fingerstyle technique is crap.

It'd also be quite sexy if you could attach a .ptb file for each lesson.

i think that by the time Fedora4 comes out, i'll have the issues with my 80gig drive resolved, and i'll have my 13gig bootable to windows (for winmx and powertabs), and the 80gig bootable to FC4 (everything else, down with Gates! lol). i think that would work nicely.

...and, by the time all of that falls into place, the semester will be over, and i get even BEGIN to have time to hit up this Lesson section

(i've never taken/studied any lessons, might be a good time to start :p )

Not for every lesson, there's a number where it wouldn't really add anything, but if you'll notce, the PTB is linked for the first one...

if you wanted to, you could probably write a .ptb yourself. once you get the hang of it, creating a powertab file isn't too hard.

you basically want to chose your time signature. to add a note, click on the note time value (quarter, half, eighth, etc) from the toolbar, then to add the note just click on a tab line, and press the fret number on your keyboard.

there are other things you can add, like slides, vibrato, stacato, and so on, but that's about it!

also, writing up the lesson into a powertab file yourself could help you to familiarize yourself with the lesson.

EDIT: to add a link.

Great idea, the internet needs more good 7-string resources
