I have tons of great lessons at Master Guitar Academy. Join me there - it's where you can learn with me every week. That's also where all my DVDs and Premium Downloads are.

Here is a 4 bar long rock guitar solo lesson. This lesson is short, and I didn't include any verbal instruction on this one (I was in a hurry), but the solo is repeated at a slower tempo, in two different angles.
This rock guitar solo is inspired by players such as Angus Young and Gary Moore.The last 7 notes in this lick is a line I have heard Angus Young do often, so it kind of stuck to me!
Here is the 4 Bars Rock backing track
I highly recommend you buy Guitar Pro - it's the best software I have found for learning guitar. Many of my lessons come with Guitar Pro files. You can download a trial version on the Guitar Pro website to see if you like it (I think you will).
I want to tell you about the guitar lesson web site JamPlay. They have kindly offered a special 7 Day Free trial to visitors of Dolphinstreet.com. I have reviewed their site, and I have to say it is VERY impressive.
There are lots of teachers and many different areas to learn from. It is well organized, and you can learn songs, techniques, etc - very complete website for learning. After 7 days, you will pay a monthly subscription continue. For the 7 trial, you don't have to give out your credit card number.
Go check it out and see what you think. Since it is completely free for 7 days, you really should test it out. You have nothing to lose. If you are interested in learning guitar online, you would be silly not to take advantage of this. If you do decide to sign up, I receive a little bonus, so this way you help support dolphinstreet as well!

I have lots of gear demos too on this site. Go and take a look at some of my Guitar Videos for some examples of gear I use or have used.

Comment added on October 24, 2009Almost forgot.I play a 55 LP special through a supro thunderbolt and with just a touch of delay and fully cranked it nails that tone almost perfectly. For those of you who have often wondered what a thunderbolt sounds like... Roberts got it down.
Comment added on October 22, 2009I like aggresive rock with just a touch of sweetness such as this.Good job Robert !!!! keep up the good work.
Comment added on October 22, 2009Lenny, check under the video on this page, where it says "Rock Guitar Solo "4 Bars" in PDF tabs/notation".
Comment added on October 19, 2009where i can find the tabs??
Comment added on October 19, 2009I used the Line 6 POD Farm for this, but you don't have to use that kind of gear if you have a good amp. First of all, use a humbucker guitar. Then use a high gain amp, or a pedal that can give you that tone. The "Metal" pedals by Boss or Danelectro, for example, would get you a similar tone. I also use a bit of delay on solos like these, to make the tone sound "larger". Set the delay to 400 milliseconds or so, and adjust the delay volume level to taste.
Comment added on October 17, 2009Hi Robert
Please advise on what gears and pickups on so on ... you've used to create this rock solo sound in the video "Rock Guitar Solo Lesson". Should I jump from analogic to logical sound effects like line 6 etc ... please advise ... Thank You very much ... Regards ... Pierrick from Bordeaux (wine :-), France
