   Hey GMC! This is my new rocker riff lesson. This time we have an amazing Led Zeppelin style rock riff that combines E pentatonic minor scale notes with some power chords. I composed this one exclusively for this lesson but maybe it will become a nice rock song in the future. Then we have an easy solo over pentatonic minor that combines some Jimmy Page licks with Slash’s licks and warm sound.

In this lesson we’ll talk about legato, single and double string bending, vibrato, changing the pick up in the middle of a solo and using the b5 as a right note and not as a passing note.

Tempo: 105 BPM
Key: E minor

Let’s rock!

Yeah awesome lesson.... As always!

This is a real rock lesson.

sb81, speaking of Guitar Hero, this song looks like it popped out of the Guitar Hero 2 game. It just proves this song is real rock material and that Gabriel knows how to create real rock songs (unlike me).

Good Job Gabriel!!!!

Hey! I'm very glad that you liked this lesson! Thanks.

Reiner: I use Gibson Les Paul Studio and Marshall Valvestate mod.8080. I record the audio with a Shure Sm57 mic to the Mackie console and I use Nuendo software. The backings tracks are recorded with Nuendo and Reason used by rewire. Finally I use Soundforge + plugins waves and Izotope to make the mastering process.

Great crushing riff, its true rock!!
I would say its really in the style of Led Zeppelin or Velvet Revolver.
If Jimmy Page would have composed it, it would become a superhit, but you are an Underground Hero!!
