Epiphone Goth Les Paul Studio Electric Guitar Black

For a budget of about $300.00, I was fortunate to see this Epiphone Goth Les Paul Studio Electric Guitar at my local guitar store. I'm always looking for a good guitar for beginner to intermediate guitar players. I'm always asked by friends what they should get their relative, nephew, niece, brother, sister etc. I always ask how far along are they with their playing. If they've been playing a short while and want to upgrade, this would be a good buy.

This guitar has a great deep tone to it which makes it great for all styles of rock or Punk. I really dig the fast neck and Scorchingly Hot pick-ups make it ideal for shredding guitar work, and it's a versatile axe too! What I like best is the very warm resonant tone. Its the next best thing to a real Les Paul Standard. And the matte finish ALWAYS gets the compliments after a gig.

Just because its a "goth" guitar doesn't mean you have to be goth to own it.

Playing Rhythm Like The Masters: James Hetfield
by Andrew Szucs of GuitarTricks.com

Instructor: Andrew Szucs
Speciality: Rock, Metal
Website: GuitarTricks.com
This lesson teaches you how to play rhythm guitar in a style similar to James Hetfield of Metallica.Hetfield's style incorporates a lot of downstroke picking, palm mutes, simple chord voices and single note riffs.

The chords used here are simple "power chords" that you might hear in a lot of songs. What makes them Hetfield-ish is the ornamentationin between chords. A lot of the ornamental notes and chords are "outside" the scale. This gives the riff that dark metal sound.

Even so, this progression doesn't really sound like Metallica in the slow version that starts the lesson, where we explain the fingerings. For that, you'll need to wait for the full speed demonstration. When the synchronization of the distorted guitar and the drums come together to give that classicmetal sound, you can see how note choice alone is not the whole style.

This lesson is part of a series that includes profiles of Tony Iommi, Ritchie Blackmore, and others.
