warmup drill / do every day
Use metronome and record myself while practicing. Recording myself helps me look and listen to myself from a different perspective and get rid of some of the anxiety that comes from recording.
- araƱa
- escala cromatica, 4 por cuerda. y tambien lo mismo pero skipping strings
- two notes per string variation: this aligns with what I was last practicing, since I noticed playing notes before finger 1 (index) were not so precise and fast and made my pink or anular separate too much from the fretboard.
para mantener la muƱeca derecha cuando se esta tocando en cuerda 5 y 6, recuerda soltar y bajar el hombro. Puedo jugar con la posicion del hombro para mantener la muƱeca derecha.
when learning a piece play a section at least 5 times without errors to move on to the next one.
techniques
improvising
learning scales https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eWRNfUBRM-U
- practice scales randomly, instead of going up and down the scale position, play the notes in a random order and see what comes up.
- next lvl is to choose 2 scale positions and play notes from both positions. Eventually, the goal is to use the entire fret board

Matteo Mancuso technique
Matteo Mancuso has a 3 finger picado technique I practiced for a little while.
bending
I'm having troubles with constantly breaking my high e string.
I should be able to bend from 10 to 12
lock in tuners too tight?
is gauge 9 too thick?
excessive down pressure on the frets when bending?
