  • Hi Guys,

    Welcome to my lesson No. 95 called "6 Power Rock Ballad Licks"

    When it comes to Power Rock ballads (or Hard rock ballads) it's time for you to shine! ;-)
    Timing, Emotion, Feeling and different phrasing techniques are a most here.
    Guitars solos in ballads of Bands like Journey, Europe, Whitesnake etc. are perfect examples.

    So I made 6 Power Rock Ballad Licks that will help you to improve your phrasing!

    Enjoy!


    The structure of the Jam track:

    Lick 1-6 0:00-1:18
    ||: C#m F#m | Bsus4 B | C#m :||6x



    Have fun! ;-)

    Final words
