Distributor: Hal Leonard HL00324310
Format: VHS
Running Time: 52 Minutes

In this video, Tony presents the techniques he uses to achieve the versatility and dynamic range that dominates his style. Tony covers the ins and outs of how to improve and hone your guitar skills through live performaces and step-by-step demonstrations, as well as how he achieves the melodic and expressive sounds he attains on guitar as a lead rock instrument.

The video also demonstrates how Tony approaches speed picking using his “economy of motion” technique to create powerful speed riffs and how he utilizes slapping, hammer-ons and pull-offs to create intense new sounds. He shows you how to utilize arpeggios, pentatonics and chord suspensions to improvise and create your own solos using bending and sliding to add dimension and color.

Tony's style lends itself to getting more freedom of motion for maximum reach and a full sound that is one of the most outstanding in the class of instrumental rock today.
