    Here you find some exercises to work on your rock guitar timing with discipline. Learn all the timing figures which are available starting from the whole, half, quarter, 8th, 16th and sextole note and try to work with them in your soloing. The backing track is only 65 bpm so it should be possible to work out all figures with discipline and in one row.

    Here you find 2 types of cinematic rock guitar riffs which work in a classical style. The first riff is played best with sweep picking but also works with regular alternate picking. The 2nd part are powerchords which have a modern and cinematic touch. The backing track is a own production out of my cinematic production tools : http://www.music-pictures.com

    If you are a beginner on guitar and you love to play rock and you still can not play the basics chords :
    then these tabs are for you. Here you can start with the most easy ways of playing rock guitar power chords and you can already start to play your first rock guitar riffs even if you still are struggling with guitar chords. There are 3 keys + available. The keys of Em and Am work well because you can work with easy open string power chords and any other key works with the power chord inversions which are very easy to grab. The focus here is on your learning process of the basic rhythm figures with full, half, quarter and 8th notes. In rock guitar the rhythm is very important so get to know those basic rhythm figures, also the pauses and start to practice them with the beginners power chords to be ready for the basic power chords with more complex rhythms :

    Here you find 3 really cool pro long meter rock guitar licks in the key of Em. They allow you to play over the entire fretboard, look and sound cool and they are a great add to your regular rock lead guitar licks. Make sure that you know all pentatonic positions of the E minor pentatonic. The backing track is at 92 bpm so that those 16th notes you need to play are not such a challenge and it's still fast enough to sound great.
