I really love this sound!! What are some of these 'Shrapnel' artists that play in this style? I'd like to pick up a few CD's.
- Gabriel Leopardi16th October 2007
It's a recod label that has edited many neoclassical guitar players like Vinnie Moore, Tony Mcalpine, Ritchie Kotzen, Jason Becker, Paul Gilbert, Greg Howe, Marty Friedman, etc) in the end of 80's and the begining of 90's. They are still editing music so you can check their homepage:

I was a fan of this style of playing when I was 15. (Ten years ago). In that time I learnt lots of neoclassical solos.

Hello GMC! Welcome to my new neoclassical lesson. This one is a great alternate picking exercise to improve your picking precision and to increase your speed.
The lesson has been inspired by the music of guitar players like Vinnie Moore, Tony Macalpine and many other Shrapnel Records shred guitar players. The continuous use of sixteenth notes makes this one an interesting speed lesson and the apparition of sextuplets after playing some eight and quarter notes makes this tune a good choice to practice stamina.
You’ll find that this lesson’s tonality modulates three times. It first starts in G minor, and then it modulates to A# using the F# dim chord as a dominant connector between the two keys. Finally the G# works as a secondary dominant to modulate to C# major key.
Tempo: 120 bpm
Gabriel.-
