GMC Forum _ PRACTICE ROOM _ New Instructor - Toni Suominen

Posted by: Kristofer Dahl Dec 7 2007, 12:03 PM

Hello there!

Today I have the honour to present an new instructor from my neighbour country Finland!

Toni will be preparing some metal/deathmetal rhhythm lessons - and we have got and Arch Enemy influenced lesson coming up first! biggrin.gif

Here is a few words he uses to describe himself:

"I would describe myself as a fun-loving, humoristic kind of a guy, who just loves playing the guitar and learning new things every day. I love to play many different styles of music, blues, jazz, rock, metal, neoclassical, and my taste of music is also very wide, from 70's progressive rock to death metal, and everything from between, jazz, blues etc. I have many influences but my main influences would be Guthrie Govan, Steve Vai, Mikael Ã…kerfeldt and my two closest friends who also play guitar."

Check out a sample of his lead playing here:

Well i've wanted Death Metal lessons since i heard Kris' Death Metal recordings, and we finally get an instructor who will do one, and its in the style of one of my Favorite Bands, with one of my favorite guitar duo's?
