-= Building a Guitar from Scratch with Absolutely No Woodworking Experience =-

Hi everyone

 

here I present some little lead exercises for guitar.

The music and tabs are taken from the Jammmz site. This site provides some really nice exercises with mp3 as normal tracks and without the specific instrument as playback.

In this little workshop I make cdlcs with some of them. The tracks are very short and focused on particular techniques.

I'll offer them as 2 piece packs with the example track with all instruments and a playback track without guitar.

 

enjoy and raise your skills!

the first exercise is about bendings

 

easy: Half Step Bends (with release bend)

 

After completing all 12 tracks including the No Guitar versions I summarize them here

you can just visit every single record page and download what you want or just get the whole Song Pack with all exercises and the final challenge with all their No Guitar versions. All cdlcs are available as Pc versions by now. If anyone have some trouble with converting just let me know.

 

The Song Pack

 

Lead Techniques 1 by Jammmz
are taken from the Jammz site, all tracks are for free. Short exercise tracks with 15-30 seconds running time, very clear and qick memorizable.
Every track also has a No Guitar version where you can should play along and listen to that.
the tracks are:

01 - Single String - a single note line only on E string, focused on fret hand shifting
02 - Pentatonic Scale - very easy, basic handshape up and down, focused on memorizing the Penta scale
03 - Slides Up easy - also a pentatonic melody with slides as shape change.
04 - Slides Up medium - pentatonic melody again with slides as shape change, but faster.
05 - Slides Down harder - focused on slides down, make sure to play it clean.
06 - Pull Offs
07 - Hammer Ons
08 - Half Step Bends
09 - Whole Step Bends (also with unisono and release bends) this is the hardest exercise of them
10 - Vibrato slow - Easy one, but since RS doesn't care about some techniques scorewise it's up to you and your ears to let those vibratos vibrate
11 - Vibrato fast - same as in 10
12 - Final Challenge - All (or the most) techniques together in a final track, with about 30 seconds the longest.

 

enjoy and raise your skills with that. Have an ear to your playing when running the No Guitar versions.

Play them untill it sounds really good, that's the goal!!!

Just updated the 2nd post with all tracks and the song pack with all in one, all No Guitar versions are included.

Maybe we can continue here with a next pack Lead Techniques 2 if wanted.

Tip: I highly recommend using Riff Repeater for those (and similar short) exercises.

Mark all phrases and start practice section. That way you can play it a few 100 times in a few minutes and litteraly watch your progress.

 

 

@@fripponomic who would have thought that my real problem are downslides (!).

Thx for pointing that out

:lol: ok, let's say int with some beginner tracks and one adv (09)

Now I decided to go on with a continuation of that little workshop. Actually working on the first of 5 exercises plus a final challenge.

The following exercises are focused on bendings, alternate picking, legato and staccato (as palm mutes). The levels are harder than in LT1, and again I'll do the example tracks and playback tracks without guitar (multitracks).

I'll add them piece by piece here and finally, when all work is done, they all will be added to the 2nd post.

Okay, the first one of the LTII pack is complete.

No.1 - Double Bends Alternate Picking

Double bends here means bend up and release bend

Lead Techniques II

here comes No. 2 - Legato and Slides

like the name advertises, this exercise is focused on legato playing using slides combined with hammer ons and pull offs.

nice training, and don't forget to play the no guitar track  ;)

It's about time for the next exercise number 3 for the LTII series.

This one is focused on bendings, not a very hard one but excellent for practise those technique.

Again this is a mini song pack with full audio and a no guitar multitrack version.

No.3 - Bending workout

enjoy and raise your bending skills
