Often when you first begin playing an instrument such as the guitar you will become frustrated at how little you can actually play. Okay you want to be able to play the kinds of songs that your favorite guitarists do, but don’t expect to be able to do so overnight. What you will find instead that it is going to take many hours of practice to be able to play even half as good as some of the professional guitarists. It would be far better when you are just starting to play the guitar that you spend time learning a few easy lead guitar riffs instead of the whole song.

Just about anyone could be taught how to play shred guitar in the same way as musicians like Paul Gilbert, Joe Satriani or Rusty Cooley do. But it also needs a large amount of dedication on the guitarist’s part in order for them to be able to play the instrument like these musicians can, plus plenty of patience as well. However, you can learn how to play a shred guitar better through using a metronome.
