Under Construction -- Fran

Introduction

Been a little while since I uploaded a lesson onto the boards, as you may know I`ve been working with a great group of guys on the Mentor Training Program, it struck me early on that I could try and do a lesson that incorporated aspects and exercises of Instructor lessons that we`d been looking at and compile it into one compact lesson for the guys to include as part of their practice routines to save a little time allowing them to concentrate on other lessons as well

Hopefully I`ve managed to achieve what I started out to do, this is a perfect place to upload the lesson as hopefully it will benefit anyone else on GMC as well

I`ve tried to cut the lesson down into small sections so that you can work easier on each section at a time

The Lesson

Main Video:

Main Video

The exercise consists of elements of lessons from Instructors, Gabriel Leopardi's Judas Priest style lesson, Marcus Siepen's Metal rhythm, Muris Varajic's alternate thirds and Joe Kataldo's tapping lesson, I have changed bits and transposed parts to fit in with what I was doing (E minor btw)

A slight variation on the Judas Priest Style lesson, a simple intro, but concentrate on timing and vibrato.

A straight repeat of the first pattern with a slightly different ending.

Part 3: Part_3.mpg ( 9.54MB )

This pattern above is repeated twice.

Into a variation (although ver similar) to Marcus Siepens Metal rhythm lesson, palm muting and some pull offs in the middle of the riff are the things to watch out for in this section

Part 4: Part_4.mpg ( 9.55MB )

This part is played a lot easier if you just down pick only, downpicking will also give more attack on the notes.

Part 5: Part_5.mpg ( 10.53MB )

Using an idea from Muris`s lesson that we looked at, I just made a longer slightly more repetetive pattern out of it, palm muting on the first notes gives this pattern more feel, not too tricky more about timing here.
