Guest Presenter: Shern Wong (1 – 2pm)
Shern Wong grew up listening to ABBA and the Bee Gees and discovered electric guitar and rock music at age 17. His previous experiences include playing with his band in the inaugural SuperBand competition and playing for Rosli Mansor since the latter’s album debut. During his segment, Shern will touch on harmonised chord progression: the basics, types, uses and examples. MySpace.com - Shern Wong - SG - Rock - www.myspace.com/shernwong

Malik (2 – 3pm)
Malik’s name is well-recognised by fans of band MALEX and he is no stranger to many across the Causeway and in Indonesia. Having picked up the electric guitar since he was a teenager and released his first album in the early ‘90s, Malik made a successful comeback with his current band after a hiatus. He will share his journey as a guitarist, from his first album to his reluctant hiatus and the reasons for his return and how he made his comeback.

Addy Rasidi (3.30 - 4.30pm)
He is an endorsee for DiMarzio and Ibanez and has released two albums with his band CRADLE and his solo album during his music career. Addy Rasidi has worked with several veterans in the local music scene such as John Molina, Douglas Oliveiro and the band Jive Talking. His segment will cover in details about the basics and techniques of guitar playing. MySpace.com - Addy Rasidi - SG - Rock / Pop - www.myspace.com/addyrasidi

Rosli Mansor (4.30pm)
Having covered rhythm dynamics and grooving in the first guitar workshop, Rosli continues from where he stopped and will touch on ‘the sauce’ and the important components of music composition: the three Ms. Those who missed the first workshop don’t have to worry being lost as Rosli will briefly reintroduce what he covered earlier. If you are starting on music composition, this is one segment you will not miss. MySpace.com - Rosli Mansor - "NEW BORN" - SG - Rock - www.myspace.com/roslimansor




FRETBOARD FRENZY, the brainchild of instrumentalist Rosli Mansor and produced by terraBox, aims to provide a platform to showcase local experienced and aspiring musicians with a common factor: their unbridled passion for the fretboard.
