    Picking technique (holding the pick and anchoring)

    Awesome job dude i really struggle to make instrumentals. you did a good job here, you seem to have payed close attention to melody here, utilising that motif at the start and end. Not just a mindless shred either so well done!

    Difficult rhythm guitar songs

    I’d say most things by tremonti he has an evil right hand. If you YouTube ahavo rabo taco salad that’s a difficult riff to get down. I’d also say Metallica. Especially for down strokes.

    Andrew & I collaborated on his song

    Following Andrew’s challenge to improvise over his track, i sent Andrew a message to see if he wanted to collaborate on his idea for a song. Here it it. If there is any singers out there that want to sing on it let either one of us know, that would be awesome to finish it off. Hope you enjoy it!

    What does the future hold for a7x

    I’m sitting here listening to guns n roses and got to thinking about their recent come back and just how huge it has been. It got me thinking about avenged and their future. Will they be a band that keeps on going like Metallica or rolling stones, or will they achieve everything they set out for...
