First lesson of Eyal Ganel, This is a solo that i wrote for my band Options

[Rockwouldbe]

Hey to you all my name is Eyal Ganel





I am 23 I live in Israel; I have been playing for 12 years. Usually I play grunge style and little bit Arabic influences.
Right now I am working on a project of grunge with people in my area.
I live in Sderot which is a city in Israel known for rockets and good music that is influenced by Arabic scales.
Nice to meet you guys. And I hope you are going to like my lessons.

Now just recently i joined a Band in the style of Grunge
i had to pick up a different sound of what i am using usually
i think this a very typical grunge solo. There is the Blues inside. We all know where this entire grunge comes from originally.
And there are the elements of Metal.

I like using a lot of stretches in my solos, at beginning and after shredding if I may call it a shredding (sorry all you crazy fast guitar players).
It helps to cool it down and especially to bring more sensitivity into your playing after you finish the "shredding" part . there people who understand me that usally it is hard for them to play clean notes straight after they finished shredding .

I hope you like my solo it is a song that we are working at the moment .

Rock on

Now let's work

The First bend you see that is going until it is B it is the fifth of E so it is a nice way of entering a solo

ok this part is the harder one. now this i would recommend on starting really slow.
for example start with a bpm of 50 and do one on each click.

i don't know an easy way of study stuff like this except working with a metronome and slowly
do faster and faster.


E panta
e|---------------------------------------------12--15--------------14-15-17--------|
B|-------------------------------------12--15---------------------------------------|
G|------------------------------12--14----------------------------------------------|
D|----------------------12--14-----------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------12--14------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------12--15------------------------------------------------------------------|

I would look on the last part as taken from minor, this way it is easy to understand what is going on

I don't know if you noticed but the chords for this solo

it is only Em Am so once again i am giving the feel with the fifth of

Em (E G
1 3 5





well that is for now. i really hope you enjoyed it . i think it is very easy to play.
always remmber. speed will never be more immportant then what you actualy say, with the guitar.
so don't forget to do nice things not only fast and complicated .
steve vai is great and is one of my favorite . but also Gilmor when he touch the guitar it is like heaven.

here is the backing for the tracks
