ActiveX23rd October 2007Awesome! I'm a huge fan of Alice in Chains and Jerry Cantrell. Cantrell's solo debut "Boggy Depot" is an awesome cd that not many people seem to know about.

DUDE! GABRIEL ISNT WEARING A BLACK T SHIRT! lmao I'm sorry its a great lesson thats just the first thing i noticed :-P haha
but seriously you're amazing gabe. is it okay if i call you gabe? lol - Gabriel Leopardi23rd October 2007
Hey! Thanks for the comments! I'm glad that you liked it.
Understudy: yes, you are the first on that requested this lesson. Here you have it.
Jammer: This lesson isn't inspired in any particular song. I used some of their most used harmonies and type of riff. You can hear their first album if you like this kind of riffs, songs like "Man in a Box". You can also hear to the song "Cut you in" from the first Cantrell solo album.

Hi GMC! Today I created a lesson inspired in Jerry Cantrell. Some GMC students have requested this and I thought that it would be great idea.
Jerry Cantrell is the guitarist and main composer in the band Alice in Chains and also he has some solo albums in a very similar style. His style is a combination of obscure rock riffs, rocker licks and amazing guitar and vocal harmonisations in thirds and fifths. These things have made him one of the most interesting guitar players of the music movement called Grunge.
This lesson has an intro Phrygian riff very influenced in Jerry’s soloist albums and also Alice in Chains first albums. The Phrygian repetitive riffs (the ones with the bII) are Cantrell’s favourite and very used.
In the second part you’ll find a rock solo played in F# minor pentatonic where we’ll use some of Cantrell’s most used rock licks.
Tempo: 130 bpm
Key: F# minor
See you!
Gabriel.-
