Technique Breakdown

Legato Runs

Legato, meaning 'smoothly' in Italian, is a technique that allows guitarists to execute fast and fluid lines with minimal picking. In this volume, you'll delve into the intricacies of Satriani's legato technique, learning how to seamlessly connect notes while maintaining clarity and speed. This skill not only improves your ability to play faster but also enhances your overall finger strength and dexterity, crucial for mastering the fretboard.

Tremolo Bar Tips

This volume provides detailed instructions on how to manipulate the tremolo bar to produce signature dive bombs, squeals, and subtle pitch variations. Mastering the tremolo bar opens up a new dimension of expression on the guitar, allowing you to infuse your playing with emotive nuances and sonic experimentation.

Blues/Rock Phrasing

You'll explore how to make use of bends, vibrato, and dynamic picking to convey emotion and intensity. Learning this aspect of playing is not just about copying licks; it’s about absorbing his musical language and applying it to your own improvisations and compositions.

Connecting Patterns

Navigating across the fretboard with ease is a hallmark of this playing style. This product dives into his method of connecting scale patterns and arpeggios to traverse the neck smoothly. Understanding how to link these patterns together not only expands your fretboard knowledge but also aids in creating coherent and melodic solos.

Backing Track: A Practice Essential

Included in this guitar licks course is a backing track, designed to complement the licks and techniques covered in the lessons. Practicing over a backing track is crucial as it helps in developing your sense of timing, rhythm, and dynamics. It also provides a musical context to the licks you’re learning, ensuring that you’re not just playing notes, but creating music.
