Shredding

I am new to guitar shredding. Does anyone have any tips or licks that they used or helped them when they where first starting to shred . Thank you!

Practice with a metronome.

Practice playing without any gain or distortion.  If you can't play a passage precisely and defined on a clean channel, you can't really play the passage.

I use a metronome for speed passages, jazz III picks to help fly through the strings, do finger exercises on the neck. Search through YouTube to find different exercises. Don't feel discouraged when parts get difficult. Practice practice practice.

Horse hockey.  Use reverb, delay, flange,  delay,  more phaser, and 2 metal zones to hide any lack of skill.

 

MetronomesMetronome, only teach you how to play with a drummer. 

 

Drummers suck, and will steal your drugs, makeup and girlfriend. 

 

Then, they will lie to the label about who came up with the band name.

Good to know
