Visit ProfileDo.com to customize your MySpace profile!hi, My name is Matt Hale and I am a guitar instructor... I currently have 5, that's right, 5 free columns at Shred Academy and a future instructional dvd that is near complete. This dvd shall attempt to focus upon the two of the most essential techniques that are employed within the shred guitar displines, sweep/ economy picking & legato. Each technique is developed via various exercises and patterns, only to be applied within a musical context moments later. This dvd should increase both your general understanding of each respective technique as a core component to the art of shred guitar, as well as develop your personal ownership of each technique as a tool. Just over an 1 hour and 20 minutes of footage, 30 licks/ exercises- shot at two camera angles, as well as two speeds, and finally each lick contains a verbal walktrough guiding you note by note how to play each lick. And as if that weren't enough things to list within a single sentence, each core concept will be accompanied with a written synopsis expressing the fundamental principles behind each example.Nuff, said.So hi shred heads, tele-pickers, slaping fools, and the like and welcome to my page. Be sure to check out the videos for each of the free columns exclusive to Shredacademy.com... where you can find a written breakdown of each lick and a very handy section of accompanying tabs... width="425" height="350" .... width="425" height="350" .... width="425" height="350" .... width="425" height="350" ..
