Granite12th April 2007amazing!!! Keep up the good work!
Granite12th April 2007last note in the tab text is on the wrong string, Its in a minor and he does indeed end on A, but its marked as a D...just letting ya know.
Pavel12th April 2007Ooops - will be fixed! hehe It's funny how you check all the tabs 10 times and you still have some mistakes. Will be fixed in the afternoon.
Anyway i hope you'll like the lesson! ![]()
fkalich12th April 2007I like the parts where you show your fingers moving very slowly and clearly. That makes things easier to learn. The lessons on this site are unsurpassed in the known universe, IMHO. I still think that hole in the body of your guitar is a bottle opener.
Pavel12th April 2007That thing is a "finger accelerator"
hahahaha
Rockwouldbe12th April 2007God bless Pavel
stratman3312th April 2007sweet lesson, although i cant play it.i will practice my speedpicking so i can try and learn this one.
jake the snake12th April 2007man you are such an awsome guitarist
browq12th April 2007incredible lesson!
question
when you do a tril, it looks like your doing a verry fast hammer-on pullof. is this correct? cause i don't know that a trill is
Pavel13th April 2007Thanks a lot guys!
@jolke19 - you're right man! A trill IS a fast hammer-on and pull-off!
The Uncreator13th April 2007Wow pavel, another great job, and thanks for putting GP Tabs in, saveing me alot o time! i love your sound and style, keep up the grade a work!
Elson13th April 2007AWESOME !!!!! NOTHING MORE I CAN SAY
guitargod13th April 2007Pavel u are really super good,i am so glad to be learning from u
guitargod13th April 2007what does the bracket( ) means ?
Pavel13th April 2007It means you play a trill, ex:
13(14) - it means you play a trill from 13th to 14th fret, you pick 13th, hammer-on 14th and pull-off from 14th to 13th fret.
Gabriel Leopardi15th April 2007Great solo & technique Pavel!!
ibanez-freak16th April 2007man that was awesome, especially the harmony part with the 2nd guitar... cool!
The Uncreator16th April 2007i dont know why, but i see quite an iced earth influence in there, or atleast some cool stuff like IE Solo's
Pavel17th April 2007Honestly - i never listened to Iced Earth before!
allchavsrgay18th April 2007In the riff from video 5 what harmony do you use?
Pavel19th April 2007It's not strictly defined - it changes through the lick. Part of it is played in the interval of 6th.
shredmandan19th April 2007Great lesson ,I love how you and william are coming out with more lessons.So far you have been my favorite to learn from.This one will take me some time.Thanks for another great lesson.Also maybe you could make a lesson on how to mute the other strings when playing solo's to keep it nice and clean sounding.I have a bit of trouble when trying to play some solo's without it sounding sloopy.A lesson where you are explaining how to play smooth with no extra noise would benifit a lot of us here i think.Hope you understand what im talking about.Thanks Shredmandan
Holy F&*% Pavel,
Are you interested in adopting anyone because if you are pick me!!!!Dude that is some crazy S&*^ youre playing,as i said before man youre the greatest F^&*%$# guitar player I've ever seen KEEP IT COMING!!!!!!!!!!!YOU ROCK
Pavel19th April 2007Man thank you so much! That's a huge inspiration for me to read posts like that! Thanks!
And btw. i am not interested in adopting hahahaha
shredmandan21st April 2007Pavel,
i had a question about the tabs.What does it mean when ---6---- is wrote above the tabs?Just wanted to make sure i know what that means.Thanks keep up the awesome guitar playing
Pavel21st April 2007It means you play 6 notes per beat. So if you have 6 notes and the ----6---- above them it means you have to play all 6 notes on one metronome click (beat).
The Uncreator21st April 2007Well, i just finished learning this solo in full, and i must say once more, this is a great F**KING Solo, keep up the superb work and great inspiration!
Overkiller21st April 2007Amazing, dude!
But why can't anyone come up with some Dimebag Darrell-lessons?
But that was some great material, man!
Pavel21st April 2007Thanks a lot guys!
Well, i will speak for myself - i am not a fan of Dimebag and that's why i don't think i would be able to create a good "in style of" lesson.
BubbaJ28th April 2007Hey Pavel how fast are you playing the pattern in video 6. Thanks for the awesome videos!
Pavel28th April 2007You're welcome m8!
That's why i loev 6-tuplets. You can play the song in a medium tempo but than hit some 6-tuplet runs in and it sounds very fast (actually it IS fast) ![]()
Sam783rd May 2007Hi,
I'm practicing this bit, but I was wondering how most of you guys do the fast hammer-on/pull-off part.
The way I do it now is making a downward motion during the righthand pull-offs and and upward motion during the lefthand pull-offs.
Is that the way it should be done? To me it seems the easiest way to do it.
Jeffrey5th May 2007I have no idea what tr is or how do to it=P anyone help?
Pavel5th May 2007It's fast hammer-on and pull-off.
13(14) - you pick the 13th fret and then do fast hammer-on to 14th fret and than pull-off back to 13th. ![]()
ibanez rocker29th May 2007nice riff pavel
hey pavel, great lesson, im currently practicing the Sweep + Tapping lick in Video 2. I can play the lick pretty good, muting is great, but i cant play it at speed. So i decided to try with a metronome, but idk what metronome settings to use to start. Can you help me. Thanks in advance.
GuitarDude7th July 2007Exactly what i needed thanks!! ![]()
sillyman16th July 2007i think this myt be related to fret dancers question except that im busy on the first video. hw would u practise that piece to a metronome cuz it has alot of different notes (sixteenth , eight, eight and a half) any tips?
Pavel16th July 2007@FretDancer: i am so sorry - i didn't notice your question a month ago ![]()
This is the part:
|--------------------13h-17-18p-17-13----------------|
|--15-------------15------------------15-------------|
|--------------14------------------------14----------|
|-----------15------------------------------15-------|
|--------17------------------------------------17----|
|----------------------------------------------------|
This is all one bar - first note is a quarter so it takes 1 beat, the whole sweep lick is 2 beats - because the notes are 6-tuplets - 12 notes mean 2 beats, and the last note is a quarter. Set the metronome pretty slowly and than speed it up gradually! Please ask if you need some more info! Sorry again for such a late answer!
@sillyman: the whole first part is one bar. So jsut listen to how i play it and try to fit it into one bar - 4 clicks! ![]()
If you use a Guitar Pro it would be much easier for you to read it! Maybe you could get it?
sillyman18th July 2007ok lookin at da guita pro tab nw tanx. its a great soundin lick by da way
sillyman25th July 2007by da way in this video i notice u keep ur thumb on the top of the fretboard. wen r u sposed to put it at the top and wen r u suposed to keep in centre of the neck?
Pavel25th July 2007By feeling! No rule for this! Depends on what you play and how it is comfortable for you!
Victafor26th July 2007holy.... that was incredible! when im good enuf im learning that!
megadeth11178th August 2007this lesson is awesome,the first lick is so cool
just a quick question, how many notes per beat are 32nd notes?
Pavel8th August 20071/4 -> 2x1/8 -> 4x1/16 -> 8x1/32
So, it's 8 32nd notes in 1 beat -> 32 notes per bar!
megadeth11179th August 2007oh, i get it
thanks ![]()
Victafor13th August 2007dang so hard to get up to speed
Gustavo27th September 2007im here 4 moths later

PacmanProductions3rd October 2007is that last part possible??? really is it??? ![]()
Pavel3rd October 2007I guess it is! ![]()
Victafor19th October 2007damn i cant get that last speed picking lick! just sounds horrible when i play it
john from dubai28th November 2007Is that real fingers or some mechanized version covered with flesh to resemble fingers ....... ??????????????
man u rock ........... thanks
but i dont think I will ever be able to play 10% like you
Pavel28th November 2007Thanks a bunch man! Don't worry, you'll be able to play like that - it's nothing special! ![]()
Paul Coutts16th January 2008hahaha, I love it...to me, it sounds like The Offsrpring on speed
Great licks....it has that wierd tonality that songs like Pay the Man and Come Out and Play have ![]()
xiphos23rd February 2008hey great lesson i love the sweep taps you did in here they sound great
Pavel23rd February 2008Thanks man! That's one of my favorite tricks to do with sweeping ![]()
Carlos Carrillo9th March 2008cool solo Pavel!!!!!!!
thanks
Tenma18th April 2008For the last bit with the Speed picking lick, when I see you playing it up to speed it looks to me like 1 continuous upward motion, like economy picking, I just needed a little clarification becuase i've noticed this alot with other guitarists and was wonding if it is straight-up Alternet picking motion.
Magnificent Lesson!
