Next tune with staple chords, improv limited to approaches to the third. First steps with hybrid picking.

Here are Etudes 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 and 4.4. Marc mentioned on the lesson that although the etudes were not written with the chords that it could be beneficial to play them in order to correlate them with the approach notes so that's what I did. I recorded these at tempo and they need more work but I was kind getting tired of them and wanted to get them recorded so I could move on to the other etudes and mix it up . When listening back I did notice that when my brain was trying to anticipate the next chord sometimes I got a little ahead of the beat. I also noticed the mix with soundslice was not so good in some of them but I think you can hear the bass hopefully. I can tell that I am going to be in lesson 4 for quite awhile, especially with the complementary material provided by Coach Gabriel Sebrian. https://youtu.be/BS-YrV70G44 https://youtu.be/U1HcYNHli8I https://youtu.be/Z1xnYGRQIRA https://youtu.be/QuyjJYgC8is

After talking with @Mentor Bob Kinney and @Nancy R about hidding the pick i tried to implement it... not so subbtle but it worked. I guess with work i could get better.

https://youtu.be/tvzkBzZvJdM Hello all, here is chord progression #2: II-V-I-VI (in C major) slowed down to 80% speed. In posture news, I tried turning the guitar support pillow on its side to make it taller & so far this feels pretty good. I can keep both feet on the floor instead of having a crossed leg. Mine is the smaller 4 inch, so I've ordered the larger 5.5 inch support to try. I want to say that I really do appreciate those of you who have shown concern and offered advice on my wrist/posture situation.

Just wanted to send these videos for review. There is some room for improvement, esp the transitions to A9 and A13 are not easy. This recording was done with metronome at 70 bpm, you may need to use headphones to hear the guitar sound clear. I could not complete the repeat for last verse for the Etude 2.4 as my phone battery died while recording.
