Excellent - the solo builds up dynamically and the backing chords provide an perfect basis for strong harmonies. Thanks Marcus - it's awesome to have you here!

Very good lesson! I think it's very suitable for practicing the pentatonic scale and have a lot of hard rock-fun at the same time.

Great one Marcus, I have to admit that at first I was sceptical when you joined the crew, as I don't ussually expect from musicians that made it big to be good teachers, but this is a very helpful lesson from many aspects and also sounds great, so thanks for spending you'r time on this site man

@ Iluha: The fact that I play in a successful band of course does not make me a good teacher automatically, actually it does not even make me a good guitar player by default, but I will try my best to come up with more interesting and helpful lessons, and I am happy that you liked this one :-)

Holy crap Marcus that is some AMAZING tone that you have. What is your setup? The only thing I see is the Gibson LP, but is it a Std. or Studio?

Nope, it is a wine red Les Paul with Gibson Burstbuckers  The EMG's are in some other Les Pauls

About the setup that I used here, the guitar is a Les Paul Standard Premium Plus, as I said the pickups are Gibson Burstbuckers (the guitar comes with those pickups, so this is the normal setting). I recorded with Pro Tools, I am using this M-Box Mini version here at home, and the "amp" is Guitar Rig 3, an amazing software plugin that sounds great in my opinion. The amp that I have been using in that plugin is based on the Bogner Uberschall, I used it for rhythm and lead sounds, just that I added some reverb and delay for the leads. (and the eq is different for rhythm and lead of course  )

Question? when you do the legato bit in part four do you count 8 times or do you just feel it? Does it just become 2nd nature sort of thing?
