"Man, that is such a cool lick..."
For years, you might have listened to players like Zakk Wylde, Randy Rhoads, George Lynch, or Jake E. Lee and thought: "I wish I could throw that into my playing."
Well, now you can. And the best part? It’s easier than you think.
The "Get-Your-Hands-Dirty" Toolkit
This is the practical, "get-your-hands-dirty" toolkit designed for one thing: To give you 20 distinct, high-energy licks you can drop straight into your solos immediately.
These licks are inspired by the absolute giants of the '80s. They are the "cycle" licks—the ones that build tension and excitement.
These are probably the easiest licks to just take and put straight into your playing right away.
They sound good fast.
They sound good slow.
They sound good everywhere.
