Hello friends of GMC! In this lesson we will study a song in A minor scale. This lesson contains some new licks, and some licks very known, used by great guitarists as J.Petrucci, S.Vai and others. The idea of this lesson is experimenting with a scale very known (A minor). This lesson focuses wisely on Alternate picking, string skipping, and tapping!
It is very important to learn a new way of playing Riffs and creating different atmospheres. The solos are not complicated, but they sound cool so beginners... this is for you!!
I believe that it is very important to study these compositions; with them you will develop techniques, speed and the aptitude to create your own songs!
The tuning is: Guitar Standard Tuning
1) E 4) D
2) B 5) A
3) G 6) E
Audio Settings: to record this lesson I have used the POD X3 live.
Analog Chorus: Depth 66% Mix: 35%
Analog Delay with modulation: 375ms Mix: 29%
Amp: 2002 Criminal Cab: 4x12
Mic: 57 on axis
Nothing is impossible! Feel the music and God bless you!
