The Intermediate Challenge!
So you may have seen that I recently refreshed and retuned the BHGS Roadmap, and after doing so realized that there's a bit of a gap in the curriculum when it comes to purely intermediate-level content. This also seems to be the level which the majority of you here at at (around level 2-3) so I'm gonna be striving to add some extra intermediate lessons and exercises in the coming weeks!
This week we're starting off with this fun lil' workout I created which is aimed at covering lots of bases at a purely intermediate level. Articulation, alternate picking, sweeping, tapping - this exercise has you covered! As usual I've structured the workout more like a mini song rather than a boring, formal drill, to ensure it's as addictive as possible to work on.
Good luck and don't forget to share your progress with everyone in the Discord server!

Very Randy Rhoads-esque, if he swept (I’m sure he’d have picked it up were he around today). Which is apt because Randy definitely seems like the intermediate bridge to Petrucci and company.
What I like about this is that I can look forward to completing it fully in a few months which gives more satisfaction rather than only being able to make it though 2/3rds for another year or two till I reach the advanced stage.
That's great to hear!! Always an awesome feeling when you can complete a project
this is great, Bradley, this makes the roadmap in general clearer too; great addition
That is awesome !
