What riff made you fall in love with guitar? Did you marry it?
Into solo of Paradise city for me!
Don’t even like aerosmith all that much but as a beginner the little intro lick to walk this way was so fun to me
Stevie Ray Vaughan's voodoo chile slight return, Chuck Berry "johnny B goode ' ....
Icky Thump
@Music is Win Out of topic but what's your thought about Polyphia's Ego Death with Steve Vai 🤙
Welcome to the Music is Win drinking game. Every time Tyler mentions or promotes PRS you gotta take a shot of tequila. ☠️☠️☠️
Nah ill end up in a hospital
@@user-pm2gz5gt8m 😂😂😂
Nah vodka go further
Mate, we’d be absolutely wrecked.
Fair play though, PRS have thoroughly impressed me
This is sooooo obviously a sales pitch for PRS effects pedals. We’re not stupid!
One of my brother's friends was super into guitar while growing up and my initial inspiration to even start/try. He lent me an extra strat-body guitar he had when I was younger with a folder of his handwritten tabs. Stay Together for the Kids - Blink 182 was the first thing I pulled out of that folder and I thought it was so fun learning to play it.
Some years after, he let me borrow his 7 string for an 8th grade middle school project which friends and I basically just got to play guitar all day at school. I had broke a string and thought I'd really done it and I'd never be able to borrow a guitar again. Instead he was super stoked that I had given it a proper thrashing and that shaped my idea of playing guitar for the rest of my life.
RIP Thomas.
It's the little things that shape us
Rest in peace Thomas!
Is Thomas that friend you were talking about?
Hello! Here’s some PRS pedals I just happened to have. Fancy that. Let me tell you all about them!
i'm 13 and for me it was "don't let me down" on the top of the abby road roof concert, I have been playing for about 10 months, before I got a guitar and started playing, I watched your "stages of a guitar player." and LOVED GUITAR. After, I got a guitar for Christmas and I loved it. thanks for helping inspire me, maybe you will inspire the next huge guitar player......
For me it was
Under A Glass Moon solo- Dream Theater
Cemetery Gates- Pantera
Beat it solo- EVH
These aren’t really riffs but they made me want to play guitar.
hey i’m 14, i started around 10 months ago as well, and i wanted to learn guitar because of the sweet child o mine opening riff and now i’m proud to say i can play it, albeit a bit slowly
And people look at me weird whenever I tell them The Beatles are an ageless band
Can't Stop - RCHP was the one that made me push through in guitar. I made alotta progress and completely renewed my interest in guitar.
Same!
Learning how to play “I don’t need no doctor” was a memorable point in my playing because I finally felt like I had unlocked the coordination between both hands, and from that point on I felt like I progressed way more. Its not terribly hard to play, but executing the groove is what I found to be a challenge. It’s basically become an exercise for me to get my hands warmed up before playing. Great song, great groove, funny faces 😁
I enjoyed learning it so much as well ! Wasn’t used to this kind of playing, and it really felt like I unlocked something new in my hand technique
Layla was perhaps THE riff that made me pursue guitar, amongst my other instruments. Not to mention the solo by the iconic Duane Allman. The whole song screams emotion but groovy.
*Hmmm. I NEVER knew that Duane Allman played that riff! I ALWAYS just assumed it was Clapton himself.*
Hell ya. Great choice
@@andyroid5028 Both played that riff actually, Eric normally, and duane with a slide. Eric created that riff and duane added that bend(slide) in higher octave
The solo is the most boring part of the song. The whole second partactually if im honest. And there is no bigger fan of huge musical interludes, be it progressive rock, jazz or whatever. Layla just bores me to death
such an amazing song, and it can teach you two totally different styles depending on which version you learn
Wake Up by RATM was in the first Matrix. It starts with Neo flying off, playing during credits. Badass scene.
Not to mention that it actually came out over a decade prior to "The Matrix 2" , literally on their debut album 😅😬
Was gonna point that out too
Yes sir, Calm Like A Bomb was on Reloaded
Can confirm.
I know you're out there. I can feel you now. I know that you're afraid. You're afraid of us. You're afraid of change. I don't know the future. I didn't come here to tell you how this is going to end. I came here to tell you how it's going to begin. I'm going to hang up this phone and then I'm going to show these people what you don't want them to see. I'm going to show them a world without you, a world without rules and controls, without borders or boundaries, a world where anything is possible. Where we go from there is a choice I leave to you.
Achilles' Last Stand is the song that really got me into Zeppelin, and I'm happy you featured it here
It was as if a lightning bolt had struck the tip of my peen
One-Metallica got me playing. Not a metal player and don’t listen to it all that much now, but that intro that builds and layers was the motivation I needed after seeing a new friend of mine being able to play songs in 8th grade.
Shame that's such a shit song.
same bro
Same for me. Loved Metallica as a kid and I though Kurt Hammet was a guitar god. Lol.
Not what I was expecting. Welcome to the land of infomercial.
Sultans of Swing by Dire Straits made me an immediate guitar-lover and finally a professional guitar-player.
I love the videos where you're just talking in detail about just something you love about guitar cause like you don't go into this much detail often but when you do it's really interesting to hear
Manhattan by EJ is one of my favorite songs of all time. It's got rock, jazz, soul, elements of blues, perfect blend of everything.
YES. There’s just something about that song. 🙌
Yeah as every song on the Venus Isle album its really about mixing genre, ideas and influences, thats what made it the best album all time for me haha
I was wondering when Tyler would drop the PRS pedal video
Another PRS plug imagine that
Don’t be so cynical.
I love all your videos. And guitars.
I recently had someone break into my car and take my my guitars ( 3 of them ) while moving. My father gave me a explorer before he passed just like the one behind you.
But I really want to say that your channel and content inspires me a lot. Almost the way these songs made you love guitar.
Dauerwerbesendung
I don’t always like to watch infomercials. But when I do I like to know about it.
I knew it wouldn't take long for you to get the new PRS pedals ! I'm sure you had them before release. Paul is on a Roll !!
For me it was "Fear Of The Dark", "Layla", "Money For Nothing", "Ain't Talking About Love" and "Rock You Like A Hurricane"...
Perfect way to promote the new PRS pedals. GENIUS!!!
It was the Creed - Mark Tremonti's "One last breath" for me. Fell in love with guitar and PRS instantly.
Voodoo Child (Slight Return) is THE song that made me want to pick up guitar. Hendrix makes it sound like he’s slapping around an electric chainsaw whip
The intro/main riff to Lenny by Stevie Ray Vaughan was the one for me that truly made me fall in love with guitar. Such a smooth and dreamy riff imo.
Fast Car's intro made me love guitar even more. I had a newfound appreciation for fingerstyle after learning that song.
For me I had already been playing guitar because my dad and older sister took lessons. But after I heard Bon Jovi’s Wanted Dead or Alive, I really wanted to start being dedicated. Richie Sambora’s intro sounded so mystical to me, and smooth as hell. That’s what got me serious about learning
the intro to the live in moscow is what got me into it
@@walkerw5932 yo that performance coincidentally got me interested in learning to play the mandolin
I'm subscribing just for the fact you actually LOVE what you're doing. So many UA-camrs just make guitar videos because they are good at guitar, they do it for the paycheck, and don't really have their heart in it. You rocking out, especially during the Zeppelin song, convinced me you are not one of them. Keep on rocking!
Very cool. Thank you for teaching us a bit about these pedals ! I'm a total noob when it comes to pedals, as I own NONE so far. It's nice to get an idea of what they do.
RUSH. the solo by Alex Lifeson on YYZ
it transported me to another place and I didn’t know guitar could be played like that. All of his Solo’s are great and they contain various intangibles. Creating a “mood” so to speak.
My No 2 would be David Gilmores solo on “Shine on you crazy diamond” 🔥
I'm going home by Ten Years After at Woodstock.53 years later the intro still blows me away, can't play it,the man was blazing!RIP Alvin Lee.
i was born in 93 and have always been deeply touched by music and sounds that resonated with(in) me. i still love the songs i loved back then, genres didn't and still don't matter. some of the earliest tunes that got me hooked on guitar and rock music were bloodhound gang - along comes mary, papa roach - last resort, chumbawamba - tubthumping, wheatus - teenage dirtbag, every breath you take (although it was that cover version by diddy, faith evans and whoever else) and certainly, oh yes, nickelback with how you remind me in the early naughties. i used to go to my grandma's after school and watch mtv after lunch. i also loved it when some shopping channel was advertising once again the 100 best of classic rock or some other massive cd collection. i wasn't even 10 back then but got hooked on classic rock as well. the one song i remember from these adverts is journey - wheel in the sky. i didn't have the easiest childhood, highly sensitive kid with freshly divorced parents etc., so these songs and sounds were kind of easing the pain while at the same time shaping my taste in music. not a lot later i got introduced to metal music, my dad used to listen to msg, metallica, maiden, rammstein etc. in his shabby car, one of the earliest metal tracks i recall is rammstein - sehnsucht. insane sounds for these young and innocent ears. still love it hehe
Wake Up was the song that played at the end of the first Matrix. Still an incredibly underrated riff.
Great PRS advert
wake up came out in 92....like you, i listened to driving to high school...in 96 and 97! ;) great channel.
9:18 damn I thought he was gonna start playing Drop dead legs, same tone :D
The song that made me fall in love with guitar is "Still of the Night" by Whitesnake from the 1987 album. I was 16 when that hit, I own a Delorean (still do) which I cranked hard in high school in that car. Pop the doors up....man high school was awesome, I did very well. The guitar in this song is a masterpiece in my opinion. Also, not a big Eric Johnson fan but my favorite of his is "Manhattan" which nobody really plays. Well done, great tune.
the way you played wake up by ratm gave me chills, most covers ive seen play it closer to the major scale, but you wallked the low e string and it sounds amazing!!!!
dude may i just say i LOVE your green prs soooo much its super sweet
Nice video! I like how you highlighted some bands and artists lesser known riffs and songs ie Achilles last stand by zep and the Mayer and Johnson entries
My first song that got me to buy a guitar was Cut stand peel by days of the new. My ears weren’t trained electrically yet but as a beginner this song made me want to buy a guitar and I did. Sad to say I didn’t learn it right away cause I do believe it was in a drop D and I wasn’t ready to change tunning yet. Now that I do I feel like I should go learn that song.
Crazy Train and Sweet Child…those riffs made me love guitar when I was in my teens and still to this day
hey man i love your videos been wacthing since 2019 bought a guitar and everthing but just now learning little bit but i just bought your plan and cant wait to start
Manhattan was the first guitar track I wanted to learn when I decided to get serious learning guitar. It was my Berklee audition piece. Didn't get in but it was a great experience to learn
You Only Live Once by The Strokes made me fall in love with guitar. The riff is so simple, yet it's just so fun to play!
I absolutely love the sound of black hole sun it's just one of the greatest songs for me
Iron Maiden's Hollowed Be Thy Name was the one that did it for me , There's so much in that song the way it just picks up momentum
for me it was the second solo from One.. i was blown away by the pick tapping
That's actually fingertapping on orginal recording
and some outstanding playing there tyler!!!!!!!
So stoked to hear you play Achilles Last Stand (best deep cut riff ever), and Manhattan (EJ at his best). Keep em coming Tyler!
The first riff that really caught my ear shortly after picking up guitar was Layla. I absolutely love that song and it was one of the first solos that I felt like I really got the hang of
Some riffs that made me love guitar is stop this train, who did you think I was, cold shot, heart of life, and lenny I mean there’s a lot more but just playing music I love is what keeps me going and the satisfying feeling of learning a song that your guitar hero could play just makes it feel more special
I really love your videos man!
My first riff i fell in love with would be Faithless by black veil brides. even though im not a fan of them anymore I still love that riff. the left hand is simple and dark whilst the right hand is going all out, the verses are bluesy. I love it. Nowadays i fucking love devastation by beartooth. i cant explain it, i just love it
Tears In Heaven by Eric Clapton was the first song that made me want to try the guitar out. Many years after that experience im finally taking lessons and loving the whole process!
i agree the kravitz solo is awesome, def one i had to learn as soon as i heard it
Man that semi hollow flat top strat is so dope
I need more Riff Videos with you just rocking out and getting into that shit.. Please!
The song that got me into playing guitar was "Through the Fire and Flames" - I can only play the intro so far 😅
honestly it was the adventure time theme i tried learning on my classical guitar and i realised how much i enjoy playing guitar
Yellow Ledbetter got me into playing electric guitar and really started the journey.
She sells sanctuary by the cult has recently made me fall in love with guitar again. I’ve played for a few years but that riff just makes me switch on bias and pick up my guitar so much more now
Great video as always!
Great video, thank you!! Greetings from Barcelona.
That Say It Ain't So chorus crunch, intro and bend
@MusicIsWin Heads up about this scammer.
Over the Mountain, Master of Puppets, SATO, and Steal away the night. All of these made me NEED to play guitar. can play them all now and I still get goosebumps from time to time when I get the tone just right.
Nice picks! My go to riff is of course Revelation (Mother Earth) for what made me pick up my 6 string metal machine for the 1st time! Still play it every day almost and have so for the last 40 years! Love it because Randy put a little bit of everything into the track so it gives me what I need without having to go looking for the right song to get there. As a musician yourself, I'm sure you know exactly about what I am speaking of. Keep the great content coming!
No way. You don't look a day over 27.
Are you gonna go my way??
You nailed it !!!!
14 years old and heard Rainbow’s Since You Been Gone. That made me want an electric guitar.
Had never heard that Mayer tune. Was a must learn!
The come as you are main riff. I just loved the D tuning and the chorus and reverb
That blue shur guitar sure is tasty, gotta get my hands on one soon and try one out
DUDE. Achilles Last Stand has been my favorite Led Zeppelin song since I was in high school. I'm so glad that someone else appreciates it as much as me.
All your videos are great I love them all
Very nice presentation, the tone is stellar.
U got some crazy good guitars man.
Yo Bro! You’re right on the money with my song choices as well, we definitely have a lot of similarities- extra glad that you put this one together for us! 😎 thanks
There’s a 1.5 second riff in Weezer’s Buddy Holly that made me fall in love with guitar before I even knew what a guitar was.
Ooweeooweeoo...
@@Tempo1337 Thats the one!
@@TylerJohnstonGuitar Of course it was 🎸
I never realised how much Manhattan sounded like Tender Surrender by Steve Vai. Without looking as I write this, I don’t know which came out 1st, but just caught my ear when you started playing.
Got to try the three new PRS pedals about a month and a half before they were released and man they’re coming in hot to the pedal game
Great playing here.
Great video, Tyler!
Thanks for showing how to do that harmonic!!
I’m sorry, but I AM NOT putting a pedal on my board called Horsemeat.
you can’t open the video with one of my favorite guitar riffs ever like i wouldn’t notice
as soon as i heard manhattan i picked up my guitar and started learning it what a great song
greetings from germany :D
Legendary riffs that are arpeggios !! Pls I’m dying for an arpeggio vid
I love those riffs too
Bro. Those PRS pedals! I absolutely have to get some.
Dude SoundGarden was the band that got me into guitar also awesome thank you.
the fact that you opened with black hole sun just made my day.
man oh man what a video!
Whole Lotta Love!
GOD YES!!! WOAH!!! LOVED THIS!!!
I have a couple riffs that made me fall in love with guitar and I'm not exactly certain which one is THE one for me: My dad says that the first riff I heard that made me bang my head was "Madhouse" by Anthrax, when I was probably 4 or 5 years old, but the first one I remember that actually made want to pick up a guitar to properly learn how to play the instrument was "Bark at the moon" by Ozzy in the first Guitar Hero game, when I was around 10, so I consider both of these THE riffs that changed me. Honorable mention goes to "The number of the beast" by Iron Maiden, because I got "The Best of the Beast" album as a birthday gift a long time ago and that intro riff was probably quite responsible for my metal love.
Oh man, Are you gonna go my way is so bad ass. The main riff, the solo, that bad ass “Ba-dum-ba-dum-dum” lead from the solo back into the main riff. It always makes me want to grab a guitar.
Wasn't RATM's "Wake Up" in the first Matrix film? I haven't seen it in a while, but I seem to remember that being the song at the very end when Neo is making the phone call to the machines and then the camera zooms up and the bending lick plays just as Neo comes flying at the camera.
Led Zepplin's "whole lot of love" and whole II album, that sealed the deal for me. Pink Floyd, Dire Straits, Iron Maiden, Metallica, RATM, all the grunge scene, did the rest, before and after.
