Learn To Play: She Is Pisces

Kit Tang’s “She is Pisces” is an intense track that requires a full armoury of guitar techniques. This is a ballad that will test and tease you with switch ups between major and minor, and blurred lines between rhythm and lead.

From the ocean inspired intro to the crash landing surprise end, and with drums from Marco Minnemann providing a solid backbone, this track features a tidal wave of ideas to learn and improve with.

As you cover all areas of the fretboard, you’ll see how articulations are front and centre of this track, with special touches in the way of slides, double stop bends and chunky vibrato all on display. Nail the main melody using palm muting and hammer ons, and switch it up with legato and tapping. Drawing influences from great modern Asian guitarists as well as progressive influences, “She Is Pisces” brings together two pillars of playing and helps you venture into new territory.

To help you nail the nuances of the most challenging sections, Kit has included 15 slow licks. The in-depth theory guide also not only breaks down these licks, but gives you guidance on how the song was created and how you can take those ideas and craft a ballad epic of your own.

The release includes the full playthrough, 15 slow licks, backing track, lick note with bonus theory guide and full tab/notation in PDF and GP format.

Learn how to marry the potential of the ionian and aeolian modes and how hard rock influences can be merged with melody in this mighty ballad that demands you to make more and more of your guitar.
