Hi Everyone,

Join me this Friday (tomorrow) for the 70th weekly live Q&A.

Here's how it works: bring your questions to the comments below, the community forum, or save them for the live chat.* Questions can be about anything you want - guitar technique, music theory, gear, songwriting - your choice! Also, feel free to link a video of you playing if you have a technique question!

I'll do my best to answer your questions and give examples of how you can practice developing skills related to your question.

Keep in mind, you can always watch later if you can't make it live! Check back a few hours after the stream for a numbered list of each question and a timestamped link to each answer.

*Please note: you may need a youtube/gmail account to ask questions in the live stream, but you can watch without one.

Taco had a question about how to improve creative abilities. I'll talk about that

Hey Scott! Wondering if you have any suggestions or practice or technique tips for improving speed and accuracy when playing palm-muted downpicking. For example songs like Basket Case by Green Day. I usually don't practice or play that style, but recently tried to play along with some punk songs and was comically slow & clumsy. Any suggestions for practice/technique? Maybe it's just a weakness I should accept and focus more on the style I play, but I would like to be a bit more versatile guitarist. Thanks!
