Introducing: This is a Riff

For the past month, videos have unfortunately had to take a bit of a back seat to day-to-day shop business - shooting and editing take a lot longer than probably most people realize!

But we're back today introducing a new series: This is a Riff. Each video covers a single personal favorite riff (that's not always well-known) back to front from an instructional perspective. The first episode, which you will see embedded at the bottom of this post, covers the intro to Dancers to a Discordant System by Meshuggah. While this one does have some limitations due to strings, you might still be able to learn something! For links to the original song, the Ultimate Guitar tab used in the video, and recommended tab software, see the video description for more info.

As always, we appreciate you checking it out. Subscribe if you haven't - we are still a little ways off for the 100 sub minimum for an actually useful channel URL, so each one actually does help.

Also - this is in addition to Average Guitar for Average People, so if you've been enjoying those, there's still more on the way.

So without further ado... this is a riff: 

 

PSA: Reverb Sale

Starting today, Reverb is facilitating a 15% off site sale on seller selected items under the Long Weekend Sale heading. We will be offering several items on this sale, including but not limited to:

 

Early 80s MXR Phase 45 

----

 

 

Zildjian 20" A Custom Projection Ride - 

a leftover from before our name change and transition to near-exclusively fretted stringed instruments

----

 

 

Antelope Audio Zen Tour Interface 

 

----

We expect there to be less "retail seller" participation during this and future site sale events- this could be attributed to the fee increase taking place on August 4th of this year (see this post for more info) among other situational concerns. In our case, we are only able to include items with a little extra price flexibility, but we will continue to participate in whatever capacity we are able to.

 

 The sale concludes on September 8th at 11am CDT (noon our time), so check it out before it's gone!
