Southern Metal Solo

Hi GMC! In this lesson we will continue working on the Southern Metal style of bands like Black Stone Cherry, Black Label Society and Pride &Glory but this time we combine it with other rocker bands with a Stoner Influence like Corrosion of Conformity, Spiritual Beggars and Down.
I noted that many of you really enjoyed my Black Stone Cherry style lesson but I haven’t found the lesson in the REC program!  I decided to do an easier lesson because I’m interested in seeing how you learn and incorporate my lessons.
The lesson starts with a rocker riff composed with D Pentatonic minor scale and then a solo played over the riff where I combine D pentatonic minor with D blues scale.

Techniques:
Alternate Picking
Legato
Bending
Chicken picking
Vibrato
Pinched harmonics

Scales:
D Pentatonic minor
D blues scale

Tuning:
Dropped D (D-A-D-G-B-E)

Ok guys! Let’s start working!
