Atreyu's '80s-inspired guitarist Dan Jacobs, one of Metalcore's most popular guitarists, is featured in this jam-packed set of guitar lessons.

DVD 1: If you have basic knowledge of guitar playing this DVD will take you to the next level. Dan teaches you the key components of lead playing, single note runs, strumming progressions, syncopated rhythms, blues scales, double stops and palm muting. Learn how he uses octaves as a rhythm and lead technique, picks out a chord progression to create dynamics within a song and the Metal chords and voicings he uses to create rhythms and complete song progressions. You'll learn Dan's personal workout routines and all about his live and studio gear.

DVD 2: Dan builds on the techniques learned in Level 1. Dan guides you step-by step through more advanced lead techniques like tapping, hammer-ons, pull-offs, palm muting, scales, arpeggios and speed picking. He uses examples from Atreyu's hit songs to shows you complete leads, guitar harmony sections, melodic metal rhythm and lead patterns and much more.
