Rock Guitar Lessons
 Difficulty 6 of 10 Blues Saraceno Style Lesson 2You will find great rock licks that are very helpful to practice alternate picking, legato and bending techniques. This solo is the 2nd part of the first Saraceno lesson's solo so it would be very interesting to play both of them over the extended backing that I recorded for you.  Difficulty 6 of 10 Blues Saraceno Style Rock LicksHi Gmc! In this lesson we will study some great rock licks in the style of Blues Saraceno uses Pentatonic scales, Aeolian and Lydian (like Satriani, his teacher) modes in his composition. In this exercise we will use Gm pentatonic minor scale with some chromatic notes that are added as passing notes. You will find this lesson great to practice bending, legato and sweeping.  Difficulty 6 of 10 Neoclassical Sweeping & LegatoToday we have an interesting neoclassical solo. This is a great exercise where we will combine 2 & 3 strings sweeps and legato. The chord progression is in Am key and I used the different arpeggios to create the solo. In the end of the solo I used A harmonic minor scale.  Difficulty 6 of 10 Hand Control LessonPlaying linear runs using scales may become boring - so let's change the atmoshpere and move onto a bigger challenge! You'll be challenged by string skipping over 1, 2 and 3 strings, stretching and linear runs at the same time! You will also feel huge advance in your control of string switching but most important thing is to play it CLEAN. Ready? GO!!  Difficulty 5 of 10 Rock Rhythm 'n Solo Lesson 6...you will meet some cool bending licks, playing octaves as part of the riff and hopefully, you'll get another view on composing and writing riffs using rythmical patterns.  Difficulty 6 of 10 Clean/Acoustic LessonWe have already spoken about Clean Strumming- let's continue with a "semi-acoustic" serie - as this lesson can be played on both electric and acoustic guitar. In this Rythm 'n Solo lesson we will cover some new chord shapes and learn how to use open strings. The lesson is based on chords so if you want to learn more chord shapes - check this one out!  Difficulty 6 of 10 Clean Strumming LessonLet's work on some clean strumming and some slow licks, as well as new chord shapes. The lesson can be played on acoustic guitar, but you'll have to skip a little vibrato stuff at the end (not that important). Take a look at this one and you will get some highly useful approaches down!  Difficulty 7 of 10 Collection of Sins Guitar SoloThis rock 'n roll solo is a scary mix of artificial harmonics, two-note-per-srting speed picking and double stops. You will often find that over an A5 powerchord it is common to play the note A (also called the root note) or the note E (called the "fifth" - when played over A). This could be described as an arpeggio approach - which simply mean playing the same note as in the backing chord.  Difficulty 4 of 10 Fingerpicking LessonThere are a lot of different techniques out there to learn and master - most are based on using the pick. Well - there is a highly useful technique played without the pick, called fingerpicking. Here is a great lesson for all those of you who... - haven't got into fingerpicking yet - would like their fingerpicking to sound cooler  Difficulty 5 of 10 Kristofer Dahl Collection of SinsThis explicit song is going to show you one or two tricks..! Parts of it will be suitable for the absolute beginner - while the solo and the intro riff are a little trickier. If one were to categorise it in a specific genre, rock/punk-rock would be the appropriate one. Also, this lesson includes a true backing track paradise: You get the whole song without guitars, without lyrics, different speeds and whatnot. So if you feel like putting the guitar down and start yelling (like I did when recording it!) - you have the option to do so.
