Guitar concept taught by Symrun
Salon No Mind taught Melody Duxfield about electric guitar components, amp settings, and techniques for playing a John Mayer solo. Melody practiced sliding, hammer-ons, and alternate picking. The tutor assigned the solo as homework and shared a video of Ibanez guitarist Mario Kamarena for inspiration.
