Thank you Kim! Credit is also due to @Filip Tomiša and @Ids Schiere , who have been working really hard alongside me to make this happen.

It is totally fine if you just do the chorus. We want people to do the part they feel most comfortable with.
Also thanks to Filip and Ids :)

Im practising chorus part. Two questions. I dont have anything to record it in good quality. I only have my mac microphone (build in). Im trying to get a cable for guitar to usb, but cant really find it online (yet). Is it ok if i record it in a video with in build microphone? Im afraid the sound is really bad, cause it always is when i record myself like that.
Does someone have tips for fast strumming part? When i hold the pick not in good position it sounds weird, having a difficulty with playing that fast palm muted, but its a nice practise for me :) Playing palm muted on my les Paul, i found it more difficult than my old guitar (Ibanez Gio), but i dont have the old guitar anymore. Especially palm muted this fast, so if anyone has advice, im open to it

    I find it more difficult to palm mute on my les paul too...try to move the muting hand up a bit, closer to the pick up and not so much on top op the bridge, it works better to me.
    I think that theres no problem to record with the mic now, just for the final video I think youll need more quality.

    If you are looking for a cheap way to go direct to pc using USB and cables I suggest getting the interface. It'll probably be the same price as that adapter you're looking for. All you'll need it the cable into the interface and the printer usb cable for the pc. Only issue is you'll need the correct cable for the amp. Some are mix cables others are the guitar cables etc. Mine can do either. It was only 130 dollars or so.
