There isn't a riff technique.. it's just inspiration and maybe hours and hours listening and learning songs with great links of bands like Led Zeppelin, AC/DC, Gun's and Roses, Aerosmith, Metallica, Slayer, etc... gabriel.- You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Do you ever come up with riffs like that? You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

Cheers, Tony Thanks for letting me know as I'm new to the forums. I love Gabriel's Muse and Alice in Chains lessons also. Matt Bellamy is one of the greatest current guitarists but he is even better on organ. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Also if you come up with something you really like but dont really know how to continue it you can try just taking a break or working on something else for a while and you'll find when you come back to it you might have an idea of how to continue hope that helps You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

LEARN MUSIC BY EAR, it's been a huge help to me Go for walks and listen to what's in your head...you'll come up with stuff that will be a collection of all the music you listen to...you get out what you put in (what you listen to will show up in your playing). Intervals and such will help you get your ideas out...ear train now and it will save you so much time of frustration and guesswork. Cheers!
