| umm Bit Comet is your friend. The instructional vids that have helped me out the most (going from easiest/beginner to hardest/advanced but also most rewarding) Petrucci- Rock Discipline Yngwie Malmsteen - REH Master series presents Paul Gilbert (forget the name) Michael Angelo Batio- Speed Kills Rusty Cooley (The Art of Picking) Start off with the Batio for basics... the other vids are easier but the Batio video teaches all of the essential techniques... if you practice that stuff you will shred by the end of it. I would say the most bang for your buck you get as far as exercises etc in these is definitely The Art of Picking, or any Rusty Cooley video for that matter (Shred Guitar Manifesto, Extreme Pentatonics, Basic Training)... however these are somewhat advanced... it depends where you are scalar and theory wise right now... My recommendation to intermediate shredders reading this is get a Rusty Cooley instructional... no bullshit... no leading you by the hand... just tabs... and exercises... and licks... and speed... |

  | Make sure you learn your arpeggio shapes as well, and how they relate to the scales, as it's really important to be able to start and finish your runs on appropriate chord tones rather than just playing fast, but completely arbitrary, groups of notes.
