  • Hi there! And welcome to a new lesson. I was searching for a Motorhead lesson on our data base and I couldn't find one, first I thought: how is it possible!! XD and after that, I knew what I had to do.

    So, to introduce you to this band (if there's someone who doesn't know them) Motorhead started its road on 1975 by the well-known bass player and singer Lemmy Kilmister. They got 20 albums released and so many super-popular songs!
    I focused this lesson in one of their popular songs: Ace of Spades. So I think many of you know this awesome and powerful song.

    I combined some techniques as octaves, pinched harmonics, alternate picking, palm muting and something more... but I think there's nothing too complex. So think this lesson should be easy even for a beginner.
    So, let the force guide you ;)


    I hope you like this lesson!
