Learn To Play: Balance

Crank your gain and drop that 'Low E' way down to a C, because this hard-hitting head-banger of a track will make you instantly want to riff along with Olly.

As far as JTC debuts go, Olly smashes it out of the park, and we couldn't be happier with him joining our prestigious ranks. Gnarly twists and turns combined with plenty of chugging; we can't get through this track without reaching for a guitar to jam along!

As you likely know, we focus heavily on lead guitar and soloing, because that's where the most fun is right? This song definitely has an epic solo to learn but it's also filled to the rafters with incredible prog-metal rhythm guitar. Do you know how 'Neo' from 'The Matrix' sees the world as streams of code? We suspect that Olly sees the world as an endless collection of killer riffs - and now you can learn them with TAB!

This package is your chance to learn 'Balance' direct from its creator. Not only has Olly brought you detailed slow versions of each section so you can learn at your own pace, but he's also included the official backings (both with and without rhythm guitars) so you can take the hot-seat and jam out with the band! Of course, to give you all you'll need to study the track, everything comes complete with video, audio, TAB and Notation.

For those of you looking to really get inside this phenomenal track, Olly takes you for the deep dive with over an hour of note by note breakdowns of each section, including that screaming solo!

These comprehensive breakdowns will not only teach you exactly how Olly rips it across the neck, but also divulge key tricks and tips to help you nail every nuance and articulation correctly!

So if you're in the market for learning headbanging hits from prog-metal players at the forefront of modern guitar playing, Olly's got your back.

N.B - This track is in Drop C tuning. That's D standard tuning, with the low D dropped down to C, giving you CGCFAD (low to high).
