Course Overview



Welcome to the 'Introduction to Metal Guitar' course. This is a progressive metal guitar course that contains all you need to know to start learning to be a great metal guitar player. Suitable for all ages and all types of electric guitar. Although some knowledge of how to read music and to play the guitar is recommended, it is not required at all, as backing tracks will be used. Once students complete this course, they will be able to perform basic metal music riffs (the most popular chords) and impress their friends with metal solos. If you are into metal guitar but you are feeling stuck, or you are not sure how to get started, this is the ideal course for you! A strong emphasis is placed on getting used to the instrument in the early stages of this course, so students should be ready to play hard from the word go.
