Hi, I'm Phil Broder, I've been playing guitar for nearly 30 years now - starting in the early 70s trying to emulate the great rock bands of the time.  My early inspirations were Queen, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Rush, UFO, Thin Lizzy, Van Halen - all of which I saw live in their hey day...

Today I play in my band RIFF, still hammering out my favourites from all those years.  I still love those songs, and now my tastes include the likes of Eric Johnson, Joe Satriani, Stevie Ray Vaughan, ZZ Top, and others from the great Austin music scene - including my good friend Van Wilks.

I've had a great time playing these riffs and want you to learn them too....
