The Mechanics of Acoustic Guitar - Lick Library - Lee Hodgson

The Mechanics of Acoustic Guitar is an excellent double DVD, ideal for either the complete beginner or someone who has bashed around with acoustic guitar for a while and wants to get serious.


The DVD presented by Lee Hodgson has a good really thorough approach without being too dry or academic.


Lee manages to explain scales and such things not just as an academic exercise, but provides the examples and context to make the knowledge really sink in.


More than once you'll find yourself saying things "oh yeah I can see that now" or "so that's why people bother learning scales then" etc. etc.

Extreme Guitar Metal Edge - Metal Rhythm Techniques by Andy James- Lick Library


Noise! That's what this DVD is all about...


Serious chugging metal rhythm guitar kind of noise. The kind of noise that slams you in the stomach and makes the hairs on the back of your neck stand up!


Andy James is our teacher and begins by arming us with the basic skills required for some serious metal rhythm carnage - including palm muting, accented chords, hammer ons, pull offs, left hand mutings, strumming techniques etc. etc.


But - the techniques training isn't limited to the introductory section. Throughout the DVD Andy throws in a lot more ideas on how to play and perform, plus some handy ideas for achieving a more polished sound.
