This lesson includes some Pentatonic minor and Chromatic note licks in the style of John Petrucci, Zakk Wylde and Steve Morse.

A few licks using the Dorian and minor pentatonic scale. The following licks are very usable in most musical situations.

Heavy guitar riffs played at shred speed. Combines 16th note triplets and 16th notes at 144 bpm.

Metal with some groove. A shuffle which allows to create interesting phrasing ideas. Combines alternate picking, legato, and sweep picking.

How to approach 2 note per string patterns starting on upstrokes.

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.

We'll talk about the Mixolydian mode. This mode is the 5th mode extracted from the Major scale.

Use of Bm pentatonic scale with a bit higher technical level.

How to acquire a shred technique usable for improvisation.
