Sergio Dorado30th January 2009Love your lessons, Trond. Great feeling and sound, and modern chops
fkalich10th April 2009Nice, working on it now, sounds nice, and teaches something of importance, who could ask for more. Your lessons are always very clear I think, I never have gotten confused in any of them. And you don't push speed beyond the point where as an economist would say, the added cost is not worth the added benefit, which I consider an admirable trait.
fkalich11th April 2009I should have said "where the added benefit is not worth the added cost". What I said before is what an economist might say, if he was drunk.
Alexiaden931st May 2009This is definitely something I need to learn. Many Iron Maiden songs change their rhythm to 7/8 and such, so this could come in handy ! Evil lesson ![]()
thefireball20th March 2010Another odd time...nice! I need to work on alternate picking as well. Nice ibanez!



Hi guys! :) With this lesson we will take a look at one of the most vital skills you will need to practice to advance on the guitar; Alternate picking.
But to make matters more interesting, how about we mix inn some odd time-signatures into it all?
This lesson is for the most part in 7/8, but there's a few 9/8 bars too in it.
Techniques you will encounter in this lesson; Alternate picking (as the title implies), stringskipping and small traces of downstrokes and sliding.
Hopefully this lesson will be of use for those looking to expand their time-signature vocabulary, and also for those who want need more alternate picking exercises :)
Tempo: 120 BPM
