Here’s a great guitar secret which I call “ The Power of 3 “. What is that ? If you want to have great guitar parts which are memorizable there is one concept which comes from marketing strategies. It’s called “ The Power of 3 “ and it works in that way that if you want to have information which stays in the minds of other people you can have to either repeat it 3 times or have something which comes in 3 rounds to prepare for a highlight. It’s a very rare concept in guitar soloing and maybe you might already do it without even knowing it - but it is a very useful concept which you can work out. It’s easy and fun and it works. This tutorial is from the " Must Have " series - so check it out ! Guitar Secrets - The Power of 3.pdf Guitar Secrets - The Power of 3.gp blues_2006.mp3

Do you wanna show off with some really wild lead guitar in a heavy blues rock situation ? Then these 3 Pro guitar licks are for you. They are advanced guitar licks and they are challenging but still in the ballpark of challenging bluesrock guitar licks they are somehow playable. So don't hesitate to give it a try. On the parts which are legato playing and age played in stretching finger position please be careful to not push it too hard since there is a danger of getting an injury. Take your time and just enjoy the licks - the speed will come by itself. 3 Wild Pro Blues Rock Guitar Licks.pdf 3 Wild Pro Blues Rock Guitar Licks.gp blues rock finest.mp3
