Description:

Play rhythm guitar like a pro in this comprehensive course by Troy Stetina--the guy who literally wrote the book on mastering metal and rock guitar! Chording, riffs, progressions, rhythm & timing, tips & advice and much, much more.

It's not so much what you play, it's how you play it. Get the inside scoop to fully master the art of rhythm guitar playing, by the master himself.

This course is ideal for beginners and intermediate players who are tired of remaining stuck, and want to level up. Dozens of video performance and walk-thrus of the core materials of both "Metal Rhythm Guitar vol 1" and "Total Rock Guitar" book/audio methods by Troy Stetina. (You'll need to also purchase the book materials for this online course, as the books contain tab and audio performance backing tracks.)

And at the end of every STEP in this course you'll be challenged to learn 10 well-known songs of the rock/alternative/metal repertoire. Embedded official video/audio of the tracks are presented together with Troy's transcription of its key portions. A video walk-thru by Troy also alerts you to the best ways to approach learning each song as well as to point out important musical concepts that occur.
