  wow man, you really are into that guitar, i would love to play one some day, and specially OWN one...
  
  they look just amazing to me!
- ZreD18th June 2010
  Im glad you like it ! The Stanley Guitar is quite tight on the strings, but that only gives you that extra strenght and stamina in your fingers, especialy if you are used to play on it like me.. It's funny how easy I had it when I tried another guitar after a long time, I suddenly felt like superman on a guitar.. Having said that the guitar can be a little tricky In the solo part because of the tightness, but according to what amplifier you are using it have a fantastic treble control...! So it is quite good with riffs if the guitarist just know how to play (Of course..)
  It's hard to explain it in words.. You have to feel the guitar and its technique to understand what i mean..

  He Adrian congratulate with this lesson. Kiss is really rock n roll. And this lesson is really all about it. I was a huge KISS fan long before the "I was made for loving' period. Saw them once in Holland with Iron Maiden as a warming up for KISS. A great show that was. Listening to this lesson I am waiting for Paul to start singing so well done man!!!
  
  Thanks man, this means a lot to me, coming from a true rock n roll fan!, vintage KISS is amazing!!

  You nailed it, Adrian. I spent a lot of years listening to KISS. I first saw them in concert in 1979 with my uncle. I saw them 4 more times in the 80's and then three shows on the reunion tour in '95. I've always loved their music. This is exactly in their style. Cheers!
  
  MAN you saw kiss in '79?!?!, WOW dude, that is amazing. the '95 reunion was great too, got a couple of dvd's, still ace on the guitar!
  thanks man, will make a collab around this track, you gotta be on!!

  Awesome lesson once again Adrian! I dont know why but the backing track and a little of your playing reminds me of Know Your Enemy
  
  thanks brother, well, i notice that overall the last Green Day album is heavily inspired by hard rock-glam rock, and i LOVE it.

Hey GMC'ers! This lesson is heavily influenced by the band, KISS.

Lately I've just been in the mood for Plexi sounds, and the other day i was blown away by the sound of vintage KISS, two amazing guitar players, super nice tones, and great songwriting.

If you don't like the costumes and masks, please, listen to Ace Frehley. He is an incredible guitar player, one of my strongest influences when I was learning.

Scales:

A pentatonic scale
