    He has achieved it. Ultra instinct. That solo during one of everyone's favorite tracks, while singing was very nice. Been a fan since I was 17. I'm 35 now.

      Start out slow, playing guitar and simply spelling out the lyrics in time, to figure out any syncopations or rhythmic patterns. It will gradually get easier after that. What he is doing tho... Whole different story lol. Still wanking around in the simple minor and pentatonic scale

    He still got it, love the little solo while singing show off lol. Had it lined up to see Trivium twice live, but once they had to back out last minute and the 2nd time Covid 19 struck. Hoping to get out and see em soon.
