  • Hi all!

    This lesson is inspired by the two guitar gods: Eric Clapton & Mark Knopfler.
    Of course I don't need to introduce them. They are absolutely amazing - love them both!

    I wrote this solo to show you how to combine two guitar styles,
    the fact that I was trying to avoid common licks - I hope that I suceeded.

    We are going to use:

    -vibrato,
    -bends,
    -picking&finger style,

    Key: E major
    Scales: E major, C#blues scale

    I used Guitar
    Rig 4 for solo and rythm

    The lesson is available in the guitar pro 5 file, backing tracks included.

    Enjoy,
    Piotr
