Many years ago I created some guitar lessons... They are now presented to you as a little tribute to the memory of my once fine guitar playing. Everything below the line is from the past; I am not responsible for it. The first three are particularly rubbish. Beginner's Metal - Warming Up Important for everyone to read, I reckon. If you aren't warming up before you play, you're in danger of hurting your hands. If you still want to be able to open jam jars when you're fifty, and you want to play consistently at your best: read this! Beginner's Metal II - Rhythm Basics To play clean, fast, metal-style rhythms and riffs, it's essential to develop good palm-muting and picking technique. Beginner's Metal III - Some Boring Stuff Identifying notes on your fretboard, and creating and understanding two scales: the major scale and the minor. Diadic Park [Well... it's an interesting idea at least, isn't it?!] This one's all about diads: two-note chords that can add life and harmonic content to your playing. Honest! Terrifying Technique - legato one This is the first lesson to cover legato playing . . . (which is...?) Which is: hammering-on, pulling-off, slides and tapping. In other words, guitar techniques that produce a smooth flow and require little picking. It's pretty tough, tho'. You've been warned. Terrifying Technique II - legato two The second part of legato techniques this covers slides. [And it's much easier than the previous one]. Chord Lord This is an interlude in the legato techniques' 'course', basically because I was getting bored with all that smooth flow business! Anyway this is all about chords. [I think I must have been on drugs at the time, cos' it's rather complicated and odd, but it'll have to do 'til I get around to updating it (never gonna happen)]. Good luck!
