Slash Guitar Lesson--Scales And Improvization Oh My!

One of the masters of hard rock and blues gives beginning and veteran players some insight into practice. Slash gives some advice on where your playing really should be going, and to just take the scales away and improvise like a bastard to really get your playing to a new level.

The audio is a little sketchy and off but still good none the less.


Slash has a great website for those who want to know what he's doing currently, and has a great store on line for albums and merch.

Jimmy Page Day Here On Canadian Guitar Player

Picture of a Practice Amp you can win today on Jimmy Page Day

Today is JP's birthday and I thought I would celebrate it by hoisting a few english beers, and smoke a few nice fat joints.

Well, I gave up Mary-Jane because it's too expensive when you pay 200 green-backs for an ounce. I thought I'll just have a few Canadian beers and celebrate Jimmy's gift of great music to all who love what he does spiritually and texturally on his Gibson.

I'm going to offer for free to the first blues artist that emails me, to give me the best reason why they should appear in the pages of Canadian Guitar Player and to have regular articles published for their band.

As well, I will give away for free a practice amp as well to the first musician not blues band that can tell me why they think using a small practice amp is better than using a big honkin' Marshall stack.



It doesn't have to be a perfect answer, just something you feel strongly about.


Note: This contest is only open to Musicians in Canada and the United States

Please have a regular mailing address and be able to prove that you are a working musician. If not, I cannot send the practice amp to you, nor can I write regular articles for your band.


Just email me here at:mdgrove@rock.com

Thanks Lads,

Peace to all Players on Jimmy Page Day
