In the Style of
 Difficulty 5 of 10 Eric Johnson Style Lesson 2By David OToole Johnson's style is a mixture of a few select player's influences, which he has blended together over the years to come up with his own unique and instantly recogniseable sound. Some of his influences include Jimi Hendrix, Jeff Beck, Eric Clapton, John McLaughlin, B.B. King, Wes Montgomery (Jazz Legend), Jerry Reed and Chet Atkins.  Difficulty 8 of 10 Alternate Picking Lesson 4In Alternate Picking Lesson number 4 we will work on some really fast stuff using 6ths (6-tuplets) and only a C-Major scale. This lesson also includes a way of breaking out of boring "up-down" scale runs, and some Rusty Cooley style runs.  Difficulty 8 of 10 Power Metal Soloing LessonThis lesson is a solo in the style of power metal bands like Angra, Gamma Ray, Stratovarius, and others. It begins with a nice minor scale melody and then you have a very speed alternate picking part that includes some licks in the style of Yngwie Malmsteen.  Difficulty 6 of 10 John Petrucci Style Melodic SoloProgressive guitar players like John Petrucci and Steve Morse have influenced this solo by Gabriel Leopardi. The solo is in F#m and you will find some interesting slow licks and also speed alternate picking parts. There is a loop of the backing track recorded for you to keep on practicing a long time.  Difficulty 8 of 10 Progressive Metal Rhythm LessonThe exercise is a difficult rhythm part in different meters. The first section is very in the style of Symphony X and the second section reminds me of Dream Theater's first album.  Difficulty 6 of 10 Neoclassical Three-Level-Lesson, IntermediateA solo in the harmonic A-minor scale. It contains mostly regular picking, but also some sweeps". The solo is taught in three levels of difficulty.  Difficulty 9 of 10 Luca Turilli (Rhapsody) LessonListening to Rhapsody and Luca's solo albums really got me into this kind of music and now i am working on heavily incorporating it into my playing style. This solo is written in F# harmonic minor scale, using some flat 5ths in some places and also some phrygian major scale runs. If you need a good excercise for your alternate picking and muting - this is the right one for you. You'll also find some sweep picking here!  Difficulty 4 of 10 Neoclassical Three-Level-Lesson, BeginnerA solo in the harmonic A-minor scale. It contains mostly regular picking, but also some sweeps". The solo is taught in three levels of difficulty.  Difficulty 6 of 10 Bluegrass LessonBy David OToole Welcome to this little bitta Bluegrassy Chet Atkins viberoony thing! This tune is easy enough to play once you get the components in position. Namely the righthand picking pattern (repetitive) and then the simple lefthand partial chords. Basically the same righthand pattern is used throughout, just changing the emphasis (or loud/softness) on certain notes.  Difficulty 4 of 10 Pink Floyd Style LessonBy David OToole ...a soft Bluesy-Rock solo which featured some bends being excruciatingly tortured :). The backing track chords are Amin and D9. It defintely has a bit of a Pink Floyd going on, and loops endlessly well I find. Floyd's guitarist David b is a very blues based player, and perhaps the solo sound is a little heavier than he might dial in, but the basic feel is very Floydian...
