Metal Guitar Arpeggio Solo

Check out this metal guitar arpeggio solo tutorial.  Arpeggios played with distortion and reverb/delay effects can make a song sound epic if played cleanly.  Make sure to learn the arpeggio slowly and don't just rush it to play it fast.  If you rush it, then it will sound brutal.  So, go slow with it and gradually speed it up.
