Every developing guitarist wants to know how to produce those amazing sounds familiar to us all - the awesome solos and guitar virtuosity, the signature riffs of the most memorable songs. This is the ideal book for anyone who can't get enough of those classic styles. Split into genres - blues, heavy metal, punk and indie, and even country and jazz - each section has an introduction which captures the main artists and their styles. Then try your hand at any of the notation or TAB examples of riffs in the style of everyone from Ritchie Blackmore and Jimmy Page to Slash and Kurt Cobain. Classic Riffs is part of our highly successful series of practical ring-bound guides to playing music.
