  • Hi!
    Welcome to my first lesson here on GMC! This is a solo for the track King of Death, by my band called Wisdom, from the EP entitled Wisdom.

    I use some bluesy licks, some sweeps, hammers-pulls and staccato. The interesting part is the lick involving the so-called "Hirajoshi" scale, used a lot by Marty Friedman and Jason Becker, beginning with a Bmin7 arpeggio. I also use a sweep before it, which involves some challenging wide stretches with your right hand.

    N.B. The lesson is tuned down a whole step.

    So have fun with it, hope you like it!
    Cheers
    -Zsolt
