I was just sitting practicing strumming patterns, scales and riffs just on the elec no amp and in the the G Maj Pattern 1 taught in Mod 1 I found thisā:scream: and correct or not Iām not sure but familiar ?? 
. (Not that Iām a fan of thier music) (Or the bum note right at the beginningā:astonished:)
Oh so satisfying to stumble over familiar riffs 
A satisfying riff indeed! 
My one piece of advice with an electric guitar is donāt practise without an amp. Itās all too easy to accidentally mute strings or get unwanted string noise that will go unnoticed until you plug in.
Cheers Gordon, hadnāt really considered that aspect. Pretty soon Iāll have a dedicated music room so it will all be setup permanently 
I hadnāt thought of this either but I commonly do play unplugged electric after the rest of the house has gone to bed for the nightā¦ I donāt always want to go through the process of plugging everything in for 5-10 minutes of practiceā¦. Good thought, Gordon!

Iād just like to add a couple of points here if I may;.
An electric is, obviously, designed to plugged in. Plus youāll learn to control noise, volume, attack etc, etc, and youāre learning about your amp etc.
However, donāt be afraid to practice/noodle/experiment unplugged.
For one, it can illuminate technique issues that can be somewhat masked by the many effects that amps etc offer.
Also, logistics often means that playing unplugged is sometimes warranted. And, if its the difference between picking that guitar up or not, play it unplugged.
Some say it can promote a heavy handed attack due to the lack of volume. Iāve found the opposite to be true; promoting a lighter touch and a shallower pick depth.
I always do my 1 hr structured practice plugged in, but often play/experiment noodle/ practice unplugged daily.
Cheers, Shane
Have you tried a headphone amp? Battery operated, can be purchased from under a tenner up to silly money, plug into your guitar, plug headphones in, away you go.
Hey Ian,
No Iāve never tried one, have you? Looks like a great āStocking Stufferā to add to my Christmas 
List for Santa 
to bring!!!
Let me know if you have one & if so, how you like itā¦
Thanks for fueling my 
GAS !!!

I have this one and I love it, you can dial the gain down to achieve a tone thatās clean enough for practicing (i.e. doesnāt cover up your mistakes with distortion) and you can dial it up again and have lots of fun. I donāt think you can beat it for the price, but if you want this particular model I wouldnāt hang around as Nux have brought out a new model thatās much more expensive and the GP-1 looks like it might be in short supply.
