20 Power Ballad Licks

Claudio has 20 Power Ballad licks here to blow you away (no seriously, check out the promo video he's absolutely incredible!). In this pack you will find a very strong emphasis on melody and the perfect combination of slow melodic phrases with faster more technical challenges that will help to build tension and interest in your own licks. Not only will you be learning how to use great techniques such as string skipping, longer legato phrases and hybrid picking, but you'll also be learning (through example) how to craft and construct great guitar solos by the use of melodic development and embellishment.

The guitar lines in this pack make good use of the major pentatonic and diatonic scales, skilfully manipulated to outline and express the underlying harmony. Claudio has a real skill for picking out the perfect colour notes at the perfect moments and playing them with some of the most expressive touch and feel that we've ever seen!

if you learn to master these licks as accurately as Pietronik himself, you will acquire some of the most essential skills not only for playing over power ballad tracks but also for playing high-quality guitar solos in general.

As ever, we have included everything you need to practise and perfect the material in this package. There are video and audio tracks for you to watch/listen and study, accurately transcribed TAB/notation for you to analyse and master as well as backing tracks for you to practise every lick to, and jam out your own solos! We've even included some text notes to help you really get these parts down!
