    To anyone trying to gain speed playing the upward run: simply split the solo up, and practice the parts separately with a metronome. Thus you can analyze more exactly where you are inaccurate or take too long and can practice those parts distinctively.
    It might sound like a very simple hint, but I see a lot of guitarists only practicing full solo runs.

Tack on that he didn't think the song rocked as hard as the material he liked to play and you've got a couple of his reasons. He's come around on it a little because of how much people love to hear it, but he still doesn't really like it.

It was way better than I expected it to be at the time. This solo was the whole reason for buying it in the first place, and it's still one of the greatest rock solos ever written to this day in my opinion.

    For those who continue struggling with the part at 01:00 . I never got better on that because I was picking wrong. I took a very bad habit years ago and I think this is preventing me to get fast and clean on that part. So, be sure you are picking correctly (when going to the string below, start picking down..). Even now I'm slower, I think that at the end I will get it. I never paid attention on how I was picking, so is going to be hard to change the habit but it will worth it. Thanks for all tutorials, very appreciated.

    Learned this the hard way on my cutaway Martin acoustic with gauge 12s on ( so much easier to get a sound on the couch ^^ ) - it single-handedly destroyed my frets within the 12th fret box scale. I do need a fret job done on this guitar by now, I'm not kidding you guys.
    Amazing solo, thanks for re-recording this - your video from 2012 was what I started with around two years ago, slowly building up the feel and speed for the whole thing. In the acoustic band we play the first part of the solo ( did a Sweet Child O'Mine version without any main solo before ) now because my mates kept hearing it over and over at band practice, so they finally gave in at one point when it sounded 'good enough'. It's become one of my highlights from our set list now.
    Keep them coming, Carl, thank you for everything.

      Took me about a month but I think it’s getting pretty close.

  • @TheGrandmaMoses
    @TheGrandmaMoses 4 роки тому +4

    The most important advice ( to me ) for an intermediate guitarist trying to learn this:
    'Start the fast part ( on the first of the two E notes ) with an an upstroke, everything will fall into place much smoother. If it feels strange to you, just do only one E note there with a downstroke, same thing. Or do two downstrokes on the two E notes - whatever you do, play the last E note you play at the beginning of the fast part with a downstroke and continue from there.'
    Have a nice day.

  • @PBTophie
    @PBTophie 2 роки тому +5

    I hugely appreciate both playing this in standard and original tunings. I'm playing on a Floyd Rose tuned to standard, so anything in standard helps me to play along with the lesson. Since there's no open strings (it looks like, so far, at three minutes in), I can just bring it back a fret to stay in key with you when learning along.
    Teaching in the original tuning helps hear and feel the notes to newer players unaccustomed to playing in a different key; so it doesn't sound "off". Though, skipping learning key changes and going straight to Slash solos certainly is a leap.

    Hell ya man, double high fives!! I've been trying to master that fast part at 10:30 on and off for the last few years. Of all the tabs and lessons this one finally got me there. The only thing I do differently (that I got from a 90's tab book) is at 14:28 is hit the 11th fret on the E string instead of 15th fret on the B string. when I slow down the studio recording it sounds like it's that but who knows. Anyway, very nice job dude, thanks for helping me to finally make sense of it.

    Sweet Child o mine is one of thee, if not the most ingenious song ever written..Think about Guns age when Slash wrote these melodies.Every part in this song sticks in your head including Axls melodies and duffs..The whole frigin album is like this..i can literally hum Appetite for destructon in its entirety..What a master piece that GnR couldnt top themselves.The music,the packaging and the song topics will never be duplicated..Awsome!

      And it all started with Slash playing a finger exercise on the guitar (the intro) as a bit of a joke with Adler. Izzy Stradlin liked it and came up with some chords to go with it. Axl heard it from upstairs and decided to write lyrics, later being teased by the band for writing about his girlfriend. The producer wanted an ending breakdown, but Axl wasn't sure what to sing and said "where do we go now," which ended up being the ending. I love how songs come together from seemingly meaningless interactions.

    How do you figure out the solos, I mean the run with wah is just so hard to figure out by ear (because of wah), how can people develop such ears, is just beyond comprehension! Great lesson, probably the best I have found! Thanks for all the hard work!

    • @brentbryson215
      @brentbryson215 3 роки тому

      I saw GNR 2 weeks ago, and spent most of my time watching Slash very closely. I had good seats but also used binoculars to watch details. He played for 3 hours and it was incredible to watch. Two things I noticed: 1) he is almost always watching his hands / the guitar-very focused. He’s not looking anywhere else, except maybe during his rhythm parts. 2) When he’s using the wah, it’s very customized. Meaning, he’s not just rocking it up and down with the beat. It’s more nuanced than just up and down. He varies the tempo and the amount of wah he’s sending to more specifically synchronize with what his hands are doing and, apparently, what his ears are hearing. It was really interesting to watch what he was physically doing to make such great music. And Carl is right about his vibrato-it’s really fantastic.
