Learn To Play: Breakneck

Roaring out the gates at mach 2, Igor Paspalj’s mind melting tune “Breakneck”, feeds high octane fuel into a turbocharged banger of a track. Featuring string screaming arpeggios, lightning fast legato, and three full courses of alternate picking chops, this is a chance at learning something truly unhinged.

A top shelf track demands a multitude of world class skills and Igor has provided lesson overview videos for each of the 27 licks that paint the bigger picture. If you want to jump straight in, there’s also each lick played at 50% speed so you can get to grips at your own pace before shifting up to the top gear.

As you progress through each lick, you’ll encounter a swathe of turbo sweeps, screaming dive bombs, and an upstoppable conveyer belt of alternate picking. There’s no stone left unturned as you’ll also focus on melodic playing with a central theme enveloped by shred.

At last comes the chance to stitch every lick together in the full playthrough. At a blindingly fast 210bpm, step into the racecar and try your best to keep up. To help you nail every breakneck note, there’s a study guide PDF with handy lick notes detailing each technique at hand.

This release includes: “Breakneck” playthrough, 2 “Breakneck” backings, 27 lick overview videos, 27 slow licks, study guide PDF, full tab/notation and GP files.

A track built for top speed shredding, Breakneck is everything you need to step up your high velocity techniques.
