Been working on it some more for the last couple of weeks off and on and am not getting anywhere. Tempted to skip the lesson but don't think that's the answer. Felt like breaking the damn thing and figured I'd better give you guys a try again. Is it normal to have problems at this stage? It doesn't seem like I can physically move any faster. I started off relaxed but tend to hold the pick tighter and tighter. Start cramping and get frustrated.

I was reading the "Take Lessons vs. Teach Yourself" thread. I'm intrigued by the idea of using the metronome to learn speed. I traded my Korg for a BOSS TU-80 to get the metronome feature. The instructions were pretty vague and I find the click click sound to be pretty irritating. Basically, I don't know how to use the damn thing except for tuning.

Any tips for learning to play faster or if someone can give a rundown of how these electronic metronomes works would be helpful. Thanks guys.
