Influences of the neo-classical guitar players like Vinnie Moore, Yngwie Malmsteen, Tony MacAlpine, Michael Angelo Batio. We'll use different techniques like alternate picking, sweep picking, legato and vibrato.

We'll talk about the Mixolydian mode. This mode is the 5th mode extracted from the Major scale.

Stretching, a combination of a 3 string sweep picking arpeggio with alternate picking in between. Alternate picking and chromatics a la John Petrucci.

Metal with some groove. A shuffle which allows to create interesting phrasing ideas. Combines alternate picking, legato, and sweep picking.

The Lydian mode is one of my favorites. It brings a mysterious kind of feel to a major 7th chord and is often used to "open up" a musical piece.

A fast shred solo at 220 bpm, combines alternate picking, wide finger stretching, economy picking (sweep picking), alternate picking and legato.

A solo based on Lydian mode using advanced modern techniques such as legato, sweep picking and alternate picking!

The secret to making the most of your chops is to balance them and use them in a smart way. To do that, we'll try to alternate between nice melodic ideas with faster technical passages.

Crazy country style solo!
