4 Notes per String Legato on a Melodic-Minor Mode.

The Lydian mode is one of my favorites. It brings a mysterious kind of feel to a major 7th chord and is often used to "open up" a musical piece.

A solo lesson with some influences of John Petrucci. We'll work aspects like rhythm, scale uses, and different techniques such as legato, alternate picking, Vibrato, Slides harmonics and arpeggios.

Inspired by bands like Extreme, GN'R, Jane's addiction and Aerosmith. The solo is a funky rock solo which includes lick in the style of Nuno Bettencourt, Dave Navarro and Slash.

The key of F is not used as often for guitar because it has a lot of barre chords and not a lot of ringing open string ones. It can be a difficult key for beginners uncomfortable with barre chords.
