Feedback
caustin25th March 2012Thank you. This website contines to amaze me. I have been on every lesson site known to man and this one is by far the best to learn new things in a musical way. The navigation is also the best with downloadable backing tracks and guitar pro tabs.
Plus the basic over music style is right up my alley.

NoSkill6th May 2010I love the way you added the phrase from your Melodic Rock Solo lesson. Again, the tone is great. I really like your vibrato on those big bends. The lesson is great. I'll learn this one.

Ivan Milenkovic5th May 2010Awesome 80ties licks, very cool sounding!
- Jonathan Burgos4th May 2010Awesome use of the previous melody in a different context Jonathan!! Very nice!
Kaznie, my friend! you're right. That's what I wanted to show. I'm so glad you find paid attention to that. The little things are the big differences that mark, do not forget
Jonathan,
Great lesson series the 80's hard rock.
Both are lessons are great.
Love the sound of your guitar and also the backing are very cool.
What setup do you use for the solo guitar?
Hey Buddy! Thanks for the comment, I'm really glad.
It is very difficult to show you my sound without us having the same equipment. What I can say is that the delay and reverb, is essential in this type of sounds, Do not hesitate to put a good amount of reverb and delay. Many times you think you have much, but when you start playing with the band or the backing track, so you lose a little and is very good. I tend to use sounds good mid frequencies, such as Messa Boogie, Peavy, Tube screamer, etc.
Hope that helps, mate. See you!Hi Jonathan..

Hi, friends! Again we are to continue studying the guitar and its secrets. We're studying the style of hard rock along with the saga created by me in "Hard Rock 80's". Since this lesson is the continuation of the former, I suggest you to review or see my first lesson of "Hard Rock 80's". Basically, what I want to show you, and give you the skill to write with the same chords and in the same style, something different, either by the sound of the guitar, arrangements, effects, etc.. It is very difficult for the composer, create new songs that do not resemble old compositions, especially when discussing the same style.
Well, folks, hope you enjoy this new lesson.
