This lesson covers both rhythm and lead parts for a small phrygian dominan-driven composition that is nicely suited for metal. Check out the riff and the lead ideas that you can use with your metal chops easily.

This is pretty technical despite the absence of very fast licks. This lesson is not meant to include differents techniques such as sweep/tapp/legato, it has more the intention to do something colorful.

This lesson is a solo in the style of power metal bands like Angra, Gamma Ray, Stratovarius, and others. It begins with a nice minor scale melody and then you have a very speed alternate picking part that includes some licks in the style of Yngwie Malmsteen.

This is the second part the solo continued in the lesson below. But it isn't necessary to study the first lesson to begin this one. This one is a bit more advanced, and also sounds like Vinnie Moore's compositions. The technique that you should use in this solo is alternate picking.

This is a great opportunity to explore how much feeling we have in our playing. Suitable for intermediate guitar players, this lesson shows that we can combine slow and fast melodies to express different emotions and cover different aspects of the playing.
