   Hey GMC!

Well this is the first lesson. Its very compact, short and straight forward. It covers a lot of different techniques that will help you be creative (Bends, Tapping, Slides, String Skipping, Alternate Picking, Open strings, and a little raking).

The whole idea is to get creative and make it your own. One main thing to focus on is is adding tapping to the bends. Make sure that you bend to the correct pitch or the tapping wont be in key.

Hope you enjoy the tab and remember to make it your own! I have provided three different tempo backing tracks, i think you might enjoy them. Keep up the good work and keep practicing "Perfect"! If the tab isn't exactly perfect just let me know and ill correct it!

I liked this lesson. biggrin.gif Great job. I learned a few things from this shorty.

Some of the licks are SLIGHTLY different from the first video/ wrong notes on tab[only like 2 or 3?] It's easy to figure out/improvise those parts :]
