		<description><![CDATA[Want to play better lead guitar? One of the keys to playing better lead guitar is having good solid technique.  The better your guitar playing skills are, the wider your improvisational possibilities become.  And of course, the better your playing is, the faster you’ll learn your favourite songs note-for-note. In today’s tutorial we will look at a guitar arrangement for a violin piece written by Nicolo Paganini (1782-1840) called Perpetual Motion (Moto Perpetuo, Perpetuum Mobile).]]></description>
