CHRIS POLAND GUITAR CLINC
MARCH 20th, 2010

The RMA is happy to welcome Chris Poland at 2:00 pm on March 20th in clinic. During this clinic, students will have the opportunity to hear Chris play with a live band and answer any questions about his music, industry experience, gear etc. In a class like this, you can gain all kinds of new ideas and perspective by learning Chris' approach to guitar performance. It's an opportunity that is intimate, rare and valuable to those able to participate. There will also be special giveaways during this clinic from Chris' sponsors including a pair of speakers from Eminence. We are flying Chris out from LA just for this special event, so don't miss this opportunity!

Chris Poland is probably best known for his phenomenal guitar work with several major label bands including MEGADETH (Capitol Records) and his progressive metal band, DAMN THE MACHINE (A&M Records). He also released a highly acclaimed instrumental guitar record in 1990 entitled, RETURN TO METALOPOLIS (Enigma Records), that thoroughly impressed critics and garnered much interest from the music-buying public, even now, over 15 years since its original release. Poland's current group, OHM:, solidifies his reputation as a true original voice on the guitar, who continues to evolve and take the instrument to new previously unattained levels both technically and inspirationally. There is no doubt in many peoples’ minds that Chris Poland deserves to be placed among the greats of the instrument. Poland is the real deal and more when it comes to the guitar. Gliding from unusually flowing chordings to technical oddities and inspiring leads, his incredible use of legato and tremolo bar combined with his bizarre scaling create an exotic flow of notes which somehow create order from chaos.
