  • Hi gunners! Today I’ll be showing you a lesson inspired by the most gunner and melodic side of Slash.
    This lesson has a power full riff, very long and expressive notes at the intro and, a rocker solo in the middle with depurated techniques and a lot of Slash´s melodies at the end.
    I use the C# minor scale and sometimes the harmonic or pentatonic scales too.
    Try to play the melodic parts with vibratos that make the solo more expressive.
    The middle part is mainly in the minor pentatonic scale of C# with blue notes. Be careful with the legatos and the sweep picking.
    Try to feel every note at the end it has to sound very cantabile.
    Enjoy!!!
