Introduction

Hello, I'm Charlie Griffiths, and I'm a guitar player for the band Haken. I also wrote some of the rock score syllabus, including some pieces you might be learning from my compositions. Additionally, I have been a contributor to the guitar magazines Total Guitar and Guitar Techniques for many years, since the time of the dinosaurs, it seems!

Lesson Overview

Today, I will be:

• Playing through the metal pieces from grades two to eight
• Breaking them down
• Offering tips on how to approach learning the songs
• Looking at techniques to improve your playing:
  • Left and right hand coordination
  • Alternate picking
  • Fretting

So dive in! Join me, along with the other guitar teachers, and bathe yourself in Rock School.

Goodness, it'll be fun, I promise. Come on, let's do it!
