Metal Method Instructor Sarah Spisak teaches you the fundamental elements of writing and playing catchy rock and metal riffs! In addition to metal guitar riffs, you’ll learn about palm and fret-hand
muting, artificial harmonics, and more. Riffs are arranged
with bass and drum backing tracks. Theory is discussed and explained.
Still, if you just want to skip it for now and play the riffs you can
always come back for it later! This material is appropriate for advanced
beginners and intermediate level players.
Your Instructor
Sarah Spisak is the music editor and an instructor for Metal Method guitar lessons. She is a graduate of the original Metal Method course and has a Bachelor of Arts degree in music from Mills College.
Her fascination with guitar began as early as first grade, when she made a “guitar” from construction paper. Her next instruments were cigar boxes with rubber bands. She started playing real guitars in the sixth grade and in high school bought the new Metal Method course (1983). Playing guitar never came easy to her. As a devoted student, she grew to be a teacher.
When she first went online she went straight to MetalMethod.com and worked as a volunteer, basically being an intern without a formal invitation. She now has her dream job with the company she loved since 1983.
