*oops! looks like I missed a C on the scale diagram up there! Be warned... (it's the 3rd fret of the A string)

Key: E Aeolian - Chords: Em D Am7 //

Based on a live version of Cortez the Killer, this jam track ended up sounding like the love child of Neil Young's version and Pink Floyd's Comfortably Numb. But then... how could THAT be bad? E Minor pentatonic will get you through this fine! But, since there are 2 full measures on the A minor chord, you may want to highlight some notes from the A minor triad. Try a C (b6) you won't be disappointed. Shred ON!

Please comment if you have any questions, suggestions or requests. Thanks for checking out Now YOU Shred!

When shredding: stuff to keep in mind:

Keep it simple, and repeat good ideas and sounds you like.

Try to play what's in your head, not what you're looking at (like those chord grids up there) or what your fingers have "memorized".

Be expressive! Try to add hammer-ons, string rakes, palm mutes, pull-offs, bends, slides, vibrato, or whammy bar to as many notes as you can! Listen to the pros, I guarantee that's what they're doing, unless they're shredding at a million notes a second.

Most importantly: Learn some useful vocabulary! You must either copy some phrases from someone else, or come up with your own phrases to play. Music is a language with MANY dialects - you MUST learn the basics of the language to sound good, AND a the idiosyncrasies of the dialect to sound hip! That, or you're some kind of genius who automatically knows what do do (doubtful) so don't be lazy! Learn some basic blues licks, they will take you far! I learned some Dave Gilmour and Jimi Hendrix licks 20 years ago and I still play 'em all the time!
