If you’re serious about guitar playing, you’ll need to add bends, slides and vibrato to your technique arsenal - and in this video lesson, you can learn a lick that has it all.
In the clip above, pro guitar tutor Marc Seal teaches you a lick in D minor that encompasses all of these essential techniques by breaking down each section into its component parts.
By utilising these classic playing techniques, you can inject more character and feel into your solos.
Licks like these sound and feel great to play with Elixir’s OPTIWEB coated strings, which deliver a crisp tone and a natural playing feel - like uncoated strings - combined with long-lasting tone.
For electric guitarists who want long tone life but don’t want to compromise their sound, OPTIWEB is the answer.
Elixir’s electric strings are available in three coating options - all with the same long-lasting tone.
OPTIWEB (opens in new tab) coating offers a natural feel and crisp tone, while POLYWEB (opens in new tab) features a warm tone and fast feel; NANOWEB (opens in new tab) delivers a bright tone and smooth feel.
