Jimmy Page Lead Guitar Studies

This lesson is focused on some of Jimmy's most common 
lead guitar pattern's that will give you a good idea
of how he added his guitar techniques to many of his
guitar solo's. These licks are taught in the key of
E, and are derived from E minor pentatonic and E blues
scale and run. 


Jimmy Page Guitar Trick

To perform this guitar trick, pick only the first note
(12th fret B string/fretted by the frethand index finger)
and then hammer-on and pull-off in a continous motion
using the frethand ring finger, as you pull upward
on the 8th fret B string using the pickhand index finger.
This will produce the sound of a whammy bar being pulled
sharp.
