I’ve been following Anthony from StevieSnacks.com for a while on YouTube (gr8bluesgtr) and I wanted to share the great lessons that are available. Not only does Anthony teach guitar licks lessons but he also goes into detail about concepts behind licks too such as the example above.

Ola demonstrates high gain amps as he is in a couple of very heavy metal bands, Feared and Scarpoint. I saw on his recent demo video above which is a track called

“Maybe it was inspired by YouTube, the way you can spend an hour on there and see clips of every amazing guitar player under the sun ... it just occured to me how great it would be to be able to hear a whole bunch of today’s greatest guitarists doing their thing on one album.” - Lee Ritenour on the making of 6 String Theory ... I expect most people aren’t that impressed to hear that B.B. King, Joe Bonamassa and Guthrie Govan all guested on an album because these days that process can be

Sometimes my wife and I go out and watch some of the local talent playing around town. If the band asks for requests or perhaps someone has a request, and maybe a few requests are suggested, what happens if the band does not know those songs? I don’t know really, I’ve never been in a [ ... ] ...

Today is the first in what I hope will be a series of many guitar lessons that focus on techniques of various influential guitar players.
