Tune inspired by ZZ Tops Sharp Dressed Man

Rythm and lead in the style of Dead Letter Circus.

Rasgueo is basically a rythm applied to one or more chords, so the essence of this lesson is rhythm.

In this lesson we will show you how to create a clean rythm and play a little melody over it at the same time. Covered here are the basics of two handed tapping.

Here comes the 5th lesson from my Rock Rythm 'n Solo serie. This one is a bit different than the previous rock lessons but it also has some cool stuff to learn - especially some useful alternate picking licks.

I'll explain how I build intricate rhythm tracks over modern prog tracks. To achieve that, we'll use a combination of power chords with scales. Mixing these two elements are the key to creating interesting rythm parts.

In this lesson David Wallimann combines several things to create a fusion lead on a minor blues in C. A very important aspect of this lesson is the rythm spacing. Some tension is added with the use of the blue note.

Imagine you are the only guitarist in the band and your drummer comes up with a cool rythm. You know the chords, and you know 3 scales: minor, major and phrygian. You have 5 minutes straight to create a guitar part and to make it interesting.

Let's continue working on rock rythm guitar mixed with small solo/lead sections. In the last lesson we mostly used double-stops to create rhythm guitar patterns. Well, now we will concentrate mostly on full chord shapes. Ready for some rhythm guitar? Hop in!
