Hi!

Here's challenging palm mute picking etude in quintuplets. If you try this remember to practice it in small portions to prevent any strain injuries.

I love using this down-down-up picking pattern. It reminds little bit like some fast delay effect. You can take simply just 5 chord (power chord) and use circle of fifths to make this kind of...

I think I was doing those things here. Also when we have this kind of continous picking pattern one can practice different positions and dynamics how they affect the sound.

Hi!

Do you lean your fingers on the top of guitar's body? Most of the times I do but when recording I try to keep them away like in this video. That because they causes a noise when touching the...

Controlling dynamics of the picking is essential in interpreting guitar melodies and harmonies. Here's good etude for concentrating on that.

"Jos vielä oot vapaa" might be Finland's most beautiful popular song made in 1970. It is orginally sung by Markus and here's my guitar arrangement for it.

I wanted to try something new to me and that is Travis picking-kind-of-technique. I made guitar version of old song I really love. It's called Eva from 1959 composed by Benedict Silbermann. It was...

Here is nice etude that improved my right hand technique. It has hybrid picking pattern for arpeggiated chords.

Classic Italian song "Guarda che luna" beloved earworm of my chilhood. Though sung by Olavi Virta and the Finnish title was "Hopeinen kuu". Now the time was ready for guitar arrangement. I hope you...

Hi!

Third part from F#m7 lick"saga" uses descending triads from Jazz minor scale and 4th mode of C# harmonic minor scale.

Hi!

Simple way to make minor pentatonic scale more jazzy is add 9th note, in this case g#. Whole scale is f#, g#, a, b, c#, e

Hi!

Jamming over one chord vamp is great way to explore tonal options. Here's used descending major triads to put on something "different" to the table. There'll be set of 5 licks. So if you are...

Hi!

Hi!

This Finnish folk tune has interesting history but many of us might remember it best from older Nokia mobile phones. I've always wanted to make a solo arrangement of it and here it is now. I...

That's nice to hear, thank you!
