Paul says "A metronome is your best friend," and he proves it on this hands-on DVD lesson. By spending 10 - 15 minutes a day with this mechanical time-keeper, players will improve their practice sessions, gain a better understanding of rhythm, build speed, and develop a stronger sense of time. Paul leads you through a series of basic rhythm exercises and games, clapping to various metronomic beats then transferring them to an instrument (guitar and mandolin, in this case), and he shows you how to subdivide beats using word associations to build confidence in your rhythmic control. 40 min.
