Hello from Seattle!!!!!

[scorch15]

Hey everyone, I'm a 14 year old named Zach who plays the almighty schecter hellraiser C7FR, with a black paint job, I am currently playing heavy metal and other types of metal lately such as cannibal corpse, trivium, metallica, nevermore, and darkest grace. I am currently recieving instruction from the lead guitarist of darkest grace, Nick Woodward. I have beeen playing for about three years, and playing 7s since Christmas. I'm am currently constructing a band called affliction, and will keep you posted once we record some material.
My biggest influences are kirk hammet, synster gates, jeff loomis, Kerry king, and nick Woodward. My style uses plenty of fast chugging, alternating strings, spider fingering, and 4,5,6,7 string arpeggios. Great to be part of this site and I hope to get to know you guys well.

Fly Free And Rock On!

whats spider fingering?

Spider fingering is an alternate way of playing chords in a fast way without barring multiple strings, dave munstaine is the only guy I can think of that uses them right now. But anyway, for example; start with a power chord on the 4th fret of 'A' then a chord on the the 3rd fret of 'E' and then a chord on the forth fret of 'E' and the you keep doing this up the neck. It can be a strain at first if you don't power chord too often, but try it out, it's pretty cool. Ask if you have any more questions

whats spider fingering?

Spider fingering is an alternate way of rapidly playing chords than the average guitar playing, dave munstaine is the only guitarist that I can think of that does this. Anyway a practice that you can do to get used to it is starting with a powerchord on the 4th fret on the 'A' string, then right after that play a power chord on the 3rd fret of the 'E' string then strike a powerchord on the 4th fret of 'E' then repeat the process starting on 'A' again one fret up, just repeat this process up the fret, then you can just kinda throw this into riffs as you please.
If ya have any more questions just ask

Of I forgot, try to link all the chords in the practice I showed you together and fluedly.
