I've been listening to a lot of Guns n' Roses recently and particularly Appetite for Destruction. I've always loved the album but recently I've really come to appreciate Slash's guitar playing. He's probably a lot more technically gifted than most people think and he's got a great combination tone and plenty of feel to his classic blues rock technique. He's also a great guy and always worth listening to.

I've included some online guitar lessons from Slash himself courtesy of Guitar World which give a great insight into his unique style of guitar playing.

I found a really great acoustic guitar video lesson today on arpeggios. This video is part of the launch for Dan Denley's new Acoustic Guitar Secrets course which is due out on December 12, 2007. Dan basically introduces arpeggios and then puts together a really nice arpeggiated chord progression that's both melodic and atmospheric.

I always get asked what arpeggios are so I thought this would be an excellent opportunity to let you know about this video. You can see the full video below.

Dan will be releasing several more videos on acoustic guitar so its well worth you joining the email list to get the rest even if you aren't interested in the Acoustic Guitar Secrets course. Dan's been around for a while now and has produced several guitar courses including Amazing Guitar Secrets and Lead Guitar Secrets. I've been on his email list for ages and have never been spammed so I have no problems recommending him.

Here's the link again and I'll get a review of Acoustic Guitar Secrets on the website as soon as I receive the course.

I posted some Andy McKee guitar tabs on the website a while ago and since then its been one of the most popular entries on the blog. So we are going to feature more artists in the future and I couldn't resist starting with a band that have created a bit of a storm on Guitar Hero recently. They are of course Dragon Force, a power metal group that formed in 1999 in London England and have against the odds gained huge popularity.

You'd be forgiven for thinking that we had suddenly gone back to the eighties but the combination of sheer speed and melody is something quite spectacular and its no wonder they are so popular right now. Metals back alright! The stand out highlight is "Through the fire and flames" which you can see below.



Operation Ground and Pound is equally impressive.

Herman Li and Sam Totman have really embraced their roles as guitar heroes and have posted several instructional videos on youtube. The lesson below is on how to play "Through The Fire and Flames".
