Guitar One's Newsroom
Shredder Extraordinaire Rusty Cooley Releases 2 New CD-ROMS
Straight from guitar instructor Rusty
Cooley's bedroom to your computer screen comes some of the sickest
guitar playing on the planet in two new instructional CD-ROMS—The
Art of Picking, and Extreme Pentatonics. Watch in disbelief as Rusty's
freakish fingers play each lick at human and then otherworldly speeds,
and then take a stab at the licks yourself. Don't get frustrated—we're
pretty sure Mr. Cooley has been doing this for a while.
Recently released at Chops From Hell's website,
The Art of Picking is your ticket for a private lesson revealing
Rusty's staggering alternate picking technique. Included are three-
and four-note per string concepts employing single-, double-, and |
 |
multiple-string licks, string skipping, and more.The
CD-ROM houses the 40-minute Digital video, 70 video examples (all
with Tab and standard notation), and two of Rusty's original compositions
showing how he applies his mind-bending chops. Watch the video,
print the lesson, or open the disc through your web browser for
instant access to any lick.
Also, check out the insane Extreme Pentatonics
for a warped take on the familiar scale. You'll never see your favorite
five-note scale the same way again once you finish viewing 30 digit-wrenching
patterns. The video covers legato techniques, alternate and sweep
picking, pick-hand tapping, string skipping, and more tricks sure
to impress your friends. Included are 88 six-string and 41 seven-string
patterns. This method blows the “box” off the typical pentatonic
approach, and is guaranteed to wrap your fingers into a knot. Even
if you truly believe shred is dead, we dare you to keep your jaw
off the floor when Rusty goes to town. For more info, visit www.chopsfromhell.com.
