Classic Metal Licks – Only $19.95

Guitar Licks are the Building Blocks of Lead Guitar
When the Metal Method program was first created, the heart of the course was Metal Licks recorded on audio cassette. That tradition has continued through this DVD version of this classic program. The title remains Metal Licks but today the phrases sound more Classic Rock than Metal. The original Licks Lesson was created in 1982 – what was metal then is Classic Rock today. These are classic Hendrix, Clapton, Trower, Page, and Jeff Beck. You can use this program as the basis of any lead guitar solo from blues to metal.

A System for Memorizing and Recalling Licks
This lesson teaches a technique for memorizing licks, and even more important, recalling them while improvising. It doesn’t matter how many licks you know, it only matters how many licks you can recall when you need them. In the early 80’s Metal Method instructor Doug Marks was giving private guitar lessons and taught more than sixty songs. He deconstructed the lead guitar solos from these songs into 109 licks. These phrases are transposed to the key of A minor. So, if the lead is in G, which is two frets lower than A, all 109 licks can be moved back two frets.

Next, the licks were organized according to their first note. The secret for recalling these licks is to memorize and practice all licks with the first note in mind. For example you’ll learn nine licks that begin on the first string fifth fret in A minor. Next time you’re improvising a lead and you end up on the first string, fifth fret you’ll have nine licks to choose from that start on that note. This grouping of licks makes memorizing them a breeze.

This is ninety minutes long and includes on-screen and on-disk tab. Each section and exercise can be located through the menu system. Find licks instantly, and repeat them at the touch of a button. Printable tab is located on-disk in a PDF file.

This lesson includes on-disk animated tab so you can use your computer to play along at any speed. A computer is helpful to learn this stuff but not necessary.

25 Jazz Progressions by Michael Angelo Batio (MAB) – Only $14.95

The jazz influence on Michael Angelo  Batio’s playing style will come as a complete surprise to many of his fans. I think of this program as "Michael, after midnight" in some smoke filled dark jazz club. You may have wondered where his understanding of complex rhythm guitar structure originated. It’s all here kids. To learn how to play Michael Angelo’s guitar style, you can’t just copy his music. You must also understand and learn the music that he studied on his journey to guitar mastery. This guitar lesson dvd teaches 25 classic jazz progressions.

The multi-media presentation features on-screen tab and on disk Scorch files. This allows you to see the animated tab and play along at any tempo. Trust me, you’ll need to start on the slow speed. It also includes the 25 Jazz Progressions booklet in PDF format so you can easily print the tab from your computer. We strongly recommend that you print the booklet before attempting the progressions. You will find this booklet invaluable as you can see the chord charts and familiarize yourself with the advanced, sonic textures and concepts of Jazz. Michael does not appear in this DVD so you don’t actually see him play the progressions but the guitar master performed all of the audio tracks. These progressions are great exercises for several reasons. First, they are extremely hard to master and will give your fretboard hand a great workout. Secondly, the Jazz Progressions will impact your own musical expression.

M.A.C.E. Music and Metal Method Productions produced the 25 Jazz Progressions program. Sarah Spisak notated the tab, assisted in the editing, and was in charge of overseeing the entire project. Doug Marks, owner of Metal Method, directed and assisted in the editing.

Songwriting for Guitarists
4 dvd Guitar Lessons - $29.95

You want to hear your music on the radio – that’s a realistic goal. Somebody’s doing it, why not you? For your song to receive radio airplay you must make sure that your music fits with an existing radio format. You must be creative but not so unusual that your music doesn’t fit the play list.

The most financially successful guitarists are songwriters. The reason is simple; they own copyrights and publishing for their original music. It takes a combination of craftsmanship, skill and talent to become a successful songwriter. Unless you attempt to write original music you’ll never know if you’re one of the lucky ones. If you don’t purchase a ticket you won’t win the lottery.

Songwriting for Guitarists – 4 dvd Guitar Lessons - $29.95

Songwriting for Guitarists – 4 dvd Guitar Lessons - $29.95

Why so cheap? The course was created in 1995. The rules of songwriting haven’t changed so the program is still as relevant now as it was then. Still, technology has changed so some of the hardware and software explained in the second and fourth dvds has changed. We’re including these two guitar dvds with the course at no charge to you. The process taught in these two lessons hasn’t changed – midi sequencers and drum machines still perform the same functions now as they did then. You’re still going to learn the process even if the technology is a bit dated. If you’re new to midi programming and recording these will still give you a great overview of the process and they’re absolutely free.

The other two guitar dvds teach the basics of songwriting and lead composition. They’re every bit as relevant now as they were in 1995. Plus, DVD technology makes them very easy to use. Moving through the DVD chapters is as easy as pressing the next or previous buttons on your player’s remote.

Guitar Licks are the Building Blocks of Guitar Solos and Lead Guitar Playing:
When the Metal Method program was first created over 20 years ago, Metal Licks was the heart of the course. Although the title remains Metal Licks, the phrases sound more Classic Rock than Metal. The original licks lesson was created in 1982 – what was Metal then is Classic Rock today. These are classic Hendrix, Clapton, Trower, Page, and Jeff Beck. You can use this program as the basis of any lead guitar solo from blues to metal.

Complete Basic Guitar Lessons Course with Metal Licks
Metal Method DVD Guitar Lessons -$74.95 

A System for Memorizing and Recalling Guitar Licks:
This included lesson teaches a technique for memorizing licks, and even more important, recalling them while improvising. It doesn’t matter how many licks you know, it only matters how many licks you can recall when you need them. In the early 80’s Metal Method instructor Doug Marks was giving private guitar lessons and taught more than sixty songs. He deconstructed the lead guitar solos from these songs into 109 licks. These phrases are transposed to the key of A minor. So, if the lead is in G, which is two frets lower than A, all 109 licks can be moved back two frets. Next, the licks were organized according to their first note. The secret for recalling these licks is to memorize and practice all licks with the first note in mind. For example you’ll learn nine licks that begin on the first string fifth fret in A minor. Next time you’re improvising a lead and you end up on the first string, fifth fret you’ll have nine licks to choose from that start on that note. This grouping of licks makes memorizing them a breeze. This is ninety minutes long and includes on-screen and on-disk tab. Each section and exercise can be located through the menu system. Find guitar licks instantly and repeat them at the touch of a button. Printable guitar tab is located on disk in a PDF file. These dvd guitar lessons includes on disk animated tab so you can use your computer to play along at any speed. A computer is helpful to learn this stuff but not necessary.
