Jackson Metal Master Class

JACKSON® BLOODLINE TOUR BRINGS “METAL MASTER CLASSES”
TO JACKSON DEALERS THROUGHOUT THE UNITED STATES

Magnolia Music Center and Jackson Guitars is proud to announce the Jackson Bloodline Tour to be held Thursday, May 7th at 6:30 PM featuring “Metal Master Classes” with Jackson’s own Chris Cannella.

Cannella is not only Jackson’s Product Manager and Artist Relations representative, but also a formidably-talented guitarist, songwriter and vocalist who wields his many Jackson guitar models in his North American metal band Autumn’s End.

Despite his intense and intimidating appearance, Cannella is a soft-spoken walking encyclopedia of metal in general and Jackson in particular.  Musicians and music fans are invited to join Chris as he demonstrates and explains his lightening-fast guitar techniques, not by using his own gear, but rather whatever’s in the store at the time.  Additionally, he’ll provide sound advice and overall guitar setup tips and tricks.

Cannella will also explain Jackson’s dark yet colorful past; explain the brand’s unique Bloodline and genre-defining, groundbreaking firsts—such as the advent of the original Rhoads guitar, insane custom paint jobs, and compound radius fingerboards.  He’ll show how Jackson can find a home in other musical genres, share a little music theory, and discuss soloing styles and speed.  Through all of it, he’ll open the floor to answer any questions attendees might have regarding Jackson and all-things metal.

“I can’t wait to kick-off the Jackson Bloodline Tour,” said Cannella.  “These won’t be your typical ‘run-of-the-mill’ clinics where one person plays, talks, and then answers questions before he or she leaves.  These are interactive ‘Metal Master Classes.’ We’ll focus on how to: get your playing up-to-serious-speed, get your tone dialed-in, write and record in the studio, and survive life on the road.  But most importantly, the Jackson Bloodline Tour is all about LIVING IT!”
