Two years after passing Grade 6 with distinction, I spent about a year preparing for Grade 7. Since I’m now outside the UK, I sat a mock examination via Skype with my guitar tutor Nicolas.
Nicolas scored me at 88 out of 100 — a strong pass, just below distinction. Unofficial, but a definite pass. I’ve uploaded the three exam pieces to YouTube.
Jeff Beck – Cause We’ve Ended as Lovers
Lettuce – Reunion
Simon Troup – Soma
Next goal: Grade 8 (the final level) within the next couple of years.
