Warm those fingers up, because this week's channel episode covers shredding in the key of E! Think you can handle the new lick that Neal has for you? Also, he'll show you the contrast between singing notes and shredding notes to create emotional phrasing. By adding a slow bend you get a great contrast to the faster section of the lick.
The tip of the Week is on the importance of collaboration! You'll learn your own strong and weak points and sometimes you can get more done faster with another person's help!
If you like this lesson, then GT has a lot more that cover ideas on how to play rock licks using the pentatonic scale across the guitar!
