This channel is for beginner and intermediate guitarists who are tired of the old-fashioned way of learning — the stale, uninspiring approach that makes most players quit.
Here, you’ll explore modern techniques like alternate picking, legato, sweep picking, muting, and melodic phrasing — all explained in a way that’s simple, practical, and fun.
Guitar isn’t about following rules. It’s about creating your own flavor, developing your unique style, and making music that feels alive.
My goal is to help you write memorable solos, craft expressive licks, and rediscover the joy of playing — breaking free from the pentatonic rut and the outdated “one right way” mindset.
I’m Tyson Vanzie, and I’ve been writing and teaching guitar for over 20 years in the modern metal and fusion style. I’m excited to share everything I’ve learned and help you make guitar your own. Thank you for checking out the channel!
