Play and sound like the hard rock masters! This book explores the works of 8 guitar czars: Ace Frehley (Kiss), Angus Young (AC/DC), Eddie Van Halen, Jerry Cantrell (Alice in Chains), Dave Grohl (Foo Fighters), Kim Thayil (Soundgarden), Dave Navarro, and Dean Deleo (Stone Temple Pilots). You'll discover their stylistic secrets, learn how they played their most famous riffs, and find out how each created his unique sound. The accompanying CD walks you note-by-note through licks that characterize their styles, played with their signature tones. Just as these guitar greats have inspired one another, The Hard Rock Masters will inspire your own playing and deepen your knowledge of the music and its history.
