Introduction to whammy bar techniques and their implementation in a musical context.

Melodic one-string solo using horizontal moves and long sustained notes

Dive into the pit with this lesson focusing on the riffing style of thrash giants Testament.

In his first GMC lesson Hisham shows us how to solo with the ajosha scale. Dive in to find some fresh sound shred licks and exotic melodies!

This first part will cover all 7 modal pentatonic scales. The goal here is to memorize the positions along with the sound of each ones of these scales. In the next part we will dive into each one of them.

In this lesson we are going to learn a different approach to running scales. We are going to dive in to Picking In Thirds! You can apply this method to any scale, but to keep it simple we will be using it with the Minor Scale in the Key of E.

Exotic scales - let's dive in! This is the solo from the song entitled "Wisdom" that we did with my band Wisdom. It is a short solo, and I've made an attempt to add some things that will catch the listeners ears.

...first solo lesson by Sean. "Haste" solo contains awesome single string melodies � la Vai/Petrucci, effective "double bends" and blistering tapped arpeggio runs. Dive inside!

Let's dive into pull-offs! If you're interested in learning to play with some killer legato, this is the place to start. Pull-offs are the second half of legato (check out my hammer-ons lesson for the first half!). We'll progress from absolute beginner to more advanced beginner through this lesson and learn some fun licks along the way!
