  • Tá fáilte romhat. That means "a thousand welcomes" in Gaeilge or Irish :). Why are we in Irish mode I hear you ask? Well this lesson is based on an Irish mega-band U2, featuring none other than "The Edge" on guitar.

    A truly innovative player of guitar world.

    His stuff is easy to play and learn in no time, and it sounds great. I gigged a lot of U2 stuff over the years and it's always a great buzz to play it live - exhuberent is the word I believe.

    The main thing you need to suss is to get your delay pedal set right and approach the picking technique to suit. This technique opens up countless doors in sound possibilities. From searing delay-driven riffs to atmospheric musical landscapes.
