Rock Star Reveals Virtuoso Methods To All Electric Guitarists

Feb. 16, 2015 - PRLog -- Rock star and virtuoso guitar teacher, Tom Hess, has revealed his guitar playing methods to all electric guitarists in his new online resource about playing exotic guitar licks (http://tomhess.net/HowToPlayExoticGuitarLicks.aspx).

Guitar players are frequently looking for new ways to play creative guitar licks, guitar solos and techniques. Tom Hess (online guitar teacher since 2005) has determined the precise actions guitarists need to take in order to accomplish this.

Hess begins by stating: “Playing pentatonic licks is commonplace among electric guitar players. However, the majority of guitarists never seek to learn any additional scales or guitar phrasing techniques to improve their soloing methods. As a result, they struggle to play creatively whenever they have to think of new licks, solo or improvise.”

He continues: “To become a highly creative guitar player, you not only need to improve your vocabulary when it comes to scales, but you must also learn how to play with excellent guitar phrasing. Fact is, guitarists often stagnate in their playing by never effectively combining the technique and scales they have learned together with knowledge of how to phrase in an expressive manner. Once you can do this, you’ll be able to make your guitar “sing”. This is essentially the goal of any lead guitar player.”

Among the ideas Hess lists in his resource he lists the following approaches for guitarists to improve their lead guitar creativity:

·Observing how singers create vocal melodies and immolating this on guitar.

·Bending notes from outside of the key to create an exotic sound.

·Using unconventional guitar licks and scales.

·Playing slides in a unique and uncommon manner by sliding to undetermined notes.

·Utilizing many types of vibrato to enhance specific notes.
