Want to learn about the physical effects of recreational music making on the human body?

Music is one of those great studies that is simultaneously an art form of human expression and a technical field of expertise. Music has been part of my life since 7th grade, when I started playing the flute in concert band. I went on to become a self-identified band geek through high school. These were truly transformative years in my life. Now I’m at Clarkson University in Potsdam, NY where I’m studying Engineering and Management, but I can never forget the music that has been a part of my life since then.
We are thrilled to have Steve Stine's Three Steps to Shred in Guitar World today! This master teacher knows how to get students to be really effective with their time, in three simple exercises a day. Lessonface co-founder Ashford Tucker worked closely with Steve in putting this piece together, and I can testify that he was immediately hooked on these techniques.
