| Neoclassical Rock Ideas |
|
enigmatic_minstrel writes "Given our recent Yngwie-bashing, I thought it would be good
to look at some interesting neo-classical ideas that made Yngwie
Popular in the first place- because even though he can be slightly
over-the-top, he is still a fantastic and popular player. Even if
this style of music isnt your thing, a lot can be learned, and applied to other styles." |

| Frank Zappa Guitar Style |
|
| Hi, This is my first post trying to use tabs so please forgive me if it’s a bit patchy! The following few examples are some Frank Zappa ideas, that aim to demonstrate some different melodies. With all of these pieces I'd strongly recommend that you take the time to search these tracks out, due to odd time signatures etc. They only really make sense if you can hear them! |

| Blues Rhythm (Shuffle) |
|
| In this lesson, we'll look at the basic blues shuffle. The first step in learning the shuffle is getting familiar with the "swing" type of feel that is inherent to what they call the shuffle feel. Instead of playing straight 8th notes on an even pattern, every second 8th note is delayed, giving it more of a triplet feel. Straight eights are widely used in Rock music but rarely in the blues........... |

| Rock/Metal Starter Tips (Part 2) |
|
| slong writes "This short and sweet lesson will cover a technique called palm muting. This is what gives you that fat chunking sound, as heard in most if not all rock and metal tunes. It is simple and only takes one hand to learn. First you want to get tuned up and you can so so from the main menu! Now kick on the distortion pedal and here we go." |

| slong writes " Before we get started make sure your tuned up. If your not you can do so from the main menu or buy a tuner from here dirt cheap. Second grab your distortion pedal, doesn't matter what kind just a long as it growls back at you. This is what gives you that cool heavy sound. Ok lets roll on................ " Thanks for the lesson Ron.......... |
