Here is a cool passage from Sean which has a sound typical to heavy, "drop D" metal.

You will build stamina and practice your picking in this one!

Waow! This is a great lesson! It sounds a little bit like petrucci's style
Sean, your guitar is an ernie ball musicman right? (i m not sure^^)

Looks like an OLP Petrucci signature.

haha Kris, "A Heavy Bumble Bee". You can get some funny imagery if you think of a metalhead bumble bee jammin out.

Gen, the guitar I use is the OLP version of the Petrucci model. It's an excellent value. I used to have the 7-string Petrucci model, not anymore though. Anyway, awesome guitar!

You got a great sound with that guitar, and your amp sounds great, what kind you use?

Sean: Thx for that answer! Btw, the sound is awsome, and your playing too^^ I started this lesson yesterday, its a very good exercise i think! I thougt it was a little bit hard for me with my 8 month playing but i was wrong, with some time(a lot of time:D) you can do it! im still not doing it very good but maybe in a few weeks...^^
