gounaro -> Tremolo (Aug. 16 2011 13:26:22)

I intend practicing at tremolo... Anyone has simple exercises for a beginner like me? [8D]

es a little thing that may be useful to get your hand into position .
It's basically a B7 kind of shape that you just move up and down the fret board...play each bit twice , or just mess around with it .

I'd strongly recommend practicing tremolo on all six strings. The reason why is that it's easy to develop a decent tremolo technique for the 1st (high E) string which does not transfer to the other strings. When playing tremolo on the 1st string, there's no other strings to hit. That changes as soon as you try to play tremolo on anyone of the remaining five strings.

A friend of mine is a recent student of Manuel Barrueco. To develop consistency of volume and tone in one's tremolo, he recommended doing p-a-m-i on one string. I'd recommend doing that on each of the six strings.

i think we all know that but the question was

Therefore as a beginner you would start on the E and move to the B and G as you develop, depending on the player .. However I'm not sure how much of a beginner gounaro is., He's probably better than me .
I have many tremolo excercises as I struggle with it myself ,( trying to get that flamenco sound) but I think the first thing is getting comfortable with the sound you get , as it is a real pain to re-learn something you have been doing wrong for a while , that is the best advice I can give is to try and get it right first time , then the only thing wrong is that it will be too slow ... thats OK ......[;)]
