Too true
this should be called: how to piss of people who work at guitar center
ash palmer explain please
The "May I help you?" Riff
Nah. That's only if you play Stairway to Heaven.
I'm honestly more pissed off by this joke cause it's probably more overused than these riffs themselves! 😐😂
Fear of the Dark - Iron Maiden
Run To The Hills - Iron Maiden
Master of Puppets - Metallica

Hard as a rock

Love your message
Queen?
@@franklinjimenez6886 yeah absoulately deficiency
Si no esta satisfaccion esta mal
To all of the people moaning and groaning that “the fact that _____ is not on here is unacceptable” or “I can’t believe he didn’t include _____” In here, I would like to point out that he made this video, he put a lot of effort in it, and just because you think these aren’t all the best riffs, doesn’t mean he has to. He put a lot of great effort into it, and not everyone has the same taste. If you disagree with him, it won’t do anyone any good for you to comment it here. He did a great job.
He sucks
Norma Snow matter of personal opinion, no one’s forced you to watch the video.
Preach buddy. I hate it when people hate on the youtubers for not including what they wanted. If you really want to see it do it yourself like seriously
Liddy :P exactly!! Finally someone with common sense and humanity!
I got confused because I haven't seen this video yet and I thought it was my comment because of the profile photo 😂🌹
This man has never heard of Dire Straits
Money for nothingm
yessss
...
Turns out there are much more than just 20 classic guitar riffs. It's not possible to include all the best ones in such a short list.
@@commanddept should've been at least 2 dire straits ones
50% of comments: complaining that those weren’t the best riffs
20% of comments: saying he played Smells Like Teens Spirit wring, which he didn’t, he played it differently
30% of comments: saying how amazing the video was and that you could see the effort. This should be 100% of comments in my opinion
Different is wrong when you’re going for the same feel of the riffs (plus it didn’t seem intentional)
Kyan Smetana it doesnt matter it sounds the same😂😂 u can do the same thing on bass😂
bapaknya calon istri Maybe you can do us a favor and trade places with him.
trump would call this an alternative riff
Random Spectator he played teen spirit with bar chords which is a big no no
This video may be old but those guitar riffs will live forever and you sir did them right
Kevin Trevizo Not smells like teen spirit tho
Or enter sandman
Smells like teen spirit is relatively easy and he played that one wrongly
@@deandabean0649 Old comment but what's wrong with the way he played it??
Sounds like every trip to guitar center. Ever.
But he plays in tune and on time.
@@TomPark1986 So does everyone at guitar center? They're uncreative, not completely untalented. Most of them at least.
@@TomPark1986 and so does everyone else at guitar center.
Except no stairway to heaven
0:00 that moment when you already know what's coming🤘🏻
dude just blew through 20 amazing riffs clean asf. Nice playing even nailed the drop D first try on ratm
so basically all the stuff you shouldnt play in guitar centre
Jordan Thijssen pretty much lol
i don't understand
Ángel Damián guitar player joke
Ángel Damián they are over play.
guy sensei Yeah but what is guitar centre?
Finally, someone else who likes Layla lol
who doesn't
@@dawid6886 my mom hates it
yessssssssss :D
Laylaaaa, you got on ma knees. LAYLAAAA
Who's Layla?
Why is Layla?
I don't think that's how Teen Spirits supposed to be played
We shall not except the fact that SLTS is very popular, so anyway it should be in top list. Even if you overheard it..
he is just using the same power chords but in differents places of the neck
@@cardo909 that's not the biggest issue. He's not playing power chords but minor/major ones.
@@arbazann?
@@arbazann power chords don't have 3rd sound, so they're not minor/major. He's clearly adding 3rds, that's why it sounds odd.
Damn I need an electric guitar, riffs like these just don't sound the same on Accoustic
No you need 15 of them! :-)
Also need an amp and a pedal for the sweet tones.
Ma'iq the liar just get an electric acoustic
It’s funny you say that cause I’m after an acoustic 😂 fancy a trade?
Look at epiphone's sg's their cheep and sound good
Where's Crazy Train????
Yes I will like my own comment.....
agree
Yes
Edit: Holy Crud! Thanks for all the likes!!!
Not to mention Sunshine of Your Love and Day Tripper...
Don Solo True
you look like xavi hernandes :) xD
Lol
Rendy Andifa im also say that lol
Rendy Andifa Visca Barça
Rendy Andifa hahahaha elu bang
Rendy Andifa ada bang rendoy loh :v
This guy looks like Xavi.
who will understand that will understand.
Xavi alonso he really doesnt dont know what ur on hes more on an iniesta
Yeah looks like Xavi Hernandez
No es muy dificil de entender viste, hasta alguien que no lo juna lo puede buscar y ya esta
Porque es el director de orquesta?
Damm god
Absolutely nothing to complain about the list is perfect
Hard to believe that only 60 years ago there was no such thing as a 'guitar riff', yet somehow humans still managed to survive and multiply, lol.

Kenny Keller they’re probs top 20in his opinion
Kenny Keller I’m just a huge fan of The Mars Volta and I’m lurking on the internet for any other fans. But this comment spoke to me
Kenny Keller I wonder why they are popular...
No black Sabbath though :'(
Kenny Keller oh damn thats an opinion
Anyway, here's Wonderwall
Mind Boggle it’s not a riff
Kek Jong un it was a joke
famous last words 3?

6:27 Drop D Tuning Like a Boss!
I missed any Queen, Black Sabbath, Rolling Stones, Billy Idol song
Even Cream with Sunshine of Your Love
Yep, and Cream - Strange Brew
Stone Cold Crazy

80% of comments " you played teen spirit wrong >:("
10% " why isn't 'name of band' in here >:("
9% "should be called most popular rifts"
1% "really good video"
Why do people give this a thumbs down? This guy has nailed it!
I
like your couch... seems comfy....
This is making me want to buy an electric guitar so BAD
Its worth it man
My thoughts exactly 😂
Do it... I just did sooo worth it :)
Buy a Fender
should've bought an elcetric first then an acoustic because it just feels better
These songs never get old. They don't have these today
True
Liked it man. I love how you integrated the different genre styles. Some could have flowed a bit better, but over all really enjoyed it.
those transitions between songs we so smooth not gonna lie
*Молодец. Успехов, удачи, здоровья тебе.*
you have a lot of these 96% correct my friend
10-16: "hoaahhh I'm tired"
17 : "HOOOO MY FAVOURITE"
gaming Seno zzz nobody loves u
So you're tired of Walk This Way, La Grange and else? Smh
RemiZeBoce because they’re light as shit, maiden is where it’s at
@@remizeboss6736 ua-cam.com/video/sOkLdMHX22g/v-deo.html
is he actually playing these because almost all of the riffs sound perfected and like the studio version
he recorded them first in a studio then matched the video with them
brian epstein's biggest fan why would it matter if they sound “perfected”? What if he just practiced them a whole lot and got them down perfectly?
@@passingstranger4182 nah man it just doesn't look like he's playing it in the video... Like it's out of sync ya know.
@@passingstranger4182 I mean the tone is exactly like the studio versions and no way he could play it with different tones on guitar without you even seeing him move the pickups or something
He looks out of sync that's true
It’s nice listening to this videos and being able to hear more than 2 seconds of the song
Thank you so much i lost inspiration then i watched this video and was back on track im 14 years old and i love rock 'n roll i play guitar since 4 years old.
Guitar lover I’m a 15 Y/o idiot who’s about to start to play some Guns N’ Roses
Im almost 13 i live rock🤟🤟🤟
Taylor Green wow same we even have the same last name 😂
Iron Maiden - Fear of the Dark, Metallica - Master of Puppets, One, Dio - Holy Diver, Dire Straits - Money for Nothing, Dire Straits - Sultans of Swing, Black Sabbath - Crazy Train, Paranoid, Iron Man, Ramones- Blitzkrieg Bop
and you can go on forever
Krispoo basically most metal songs
@@dutch_chewie1025 how Dire Straits and ramones sound like metal?
@Xanthus Aldric Holgado you could have just put that all in one comment ya know.
Don't forget Sabbath Bloody Sabbath and Kashmir
how is there no black sabbath
Zack Davis How is there no Beatles?
Here it is! ua-cam.com/video/qXT1NetbfGc/v-deo.html
Zack Davis because it's his video and opinion, not yours
Cláudio Santos
because this is shit list
How can we not love RnR ? This music is so... refreshing and replenishing. Thank you very much. So many masterpieces...
I think Smoke on the Water is the FIRST lick all guitar players learned! CLASSIC...
Mine was ace of spades by motörhead
Or seven nation army
Heartbreaker
I love rock and roll
@@ivanokriletic2428 me to
Honestly didn't expect Beat It to be here but I am glad it was. That is my shit!
I'm glad you put Song 2 in here. Its riff is pretty underrated
Why'd you have to kill that unicorn maaan
Glad you included "Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love," the best Van Halen intro ever.
YOU CAN'T JUST TEASE ME WITH KILLING IN THE NAME OF LIKE THAT
I felt the same dude
Whhyyyyy I got so hyped then my dreams were crushed
Haha Same here
Same
That was pretty much every song on the list, just started getting into them, then it stopped
All riffs are sick but i really enjoyed at 0:24 , 0:55 , 01:36 , 02:15 , 02:35 , 02:57 , 03:18 , 04:11 and off course at 06:11 im waiting for few more from Metallica; Sad But True, Wherever i may roam and Nothing Else Matters. 🤟🏻😝
NickJerryco MoP
Fade to black
That is one sexy guitar my friend! good playing man :)
Chimforce what kind is it? Cuz its not a Les Paul
InVision Entertainment its a vintage V100. Very affordable and a thousand times better than epiphone
really thanks I finally find the song name
It's a very good video😃😃👌, but where is Sultans of Swing of the Dire Straits?
I loved how he puts crown in the middle of MJ's name
i’m pretty sure that’s his logo.
@@alezsides great then i didn't know
It's the logo
Excellent. The best I've seen on UA-cam.
+philip Brailey Thank you very much!
So I guess he just hasn’t ever heard Money for Nothing, Master of Puppets, Crazy Train, or VOODOO CHILE
Sultans if swing should have been in there
Dale cerra el orto
There's too many amazing riffs to put on a list of 20
That's why there is vol.2
So i guess your opinion is everyone else’s?
Very nice tone coming from that guitar. Especially Whole Lotta Love.
Can't beat a Gibson Les Paul, especially pre 1975 made.
Awesome selection . GREAT JOB MAN!
Guys he said in the description that those are HIS favorites without order
All of these are masterpieces. I personally love #12 the most. I can listen to it for the eternity
all these haters, but I loved it
Great choices and great playing. Just a few glaring omissions: money for nothing (dire straits), fat bottomed girls & tie your mother down (queen), life in the fast lane (eagles), crazy train (ozzy ozbourne), money (pink floyd), and the criminally underrated: ma-ma-ma belle (elo).
Oh, and iron man (black sabbath).
Thanks! You can check my second version of the video that includes three of your suggestions ;) ua-cam.com/video/qXT1NetbfGc/v-deo.html
I checked it out, again quality playing and choices! It's hard to choose when there are so many good ones out there ;)
Amit B.E.
Thanks for watching ;) Cheers
Damn ray William Johnson got old
Mike Hunt i know
Mike Hunt nice name
My top 20 pt.
Some of them are not your safe, predictable choices. Have a listen! Guess such a list always depends on ones mood there and then. so, in my case it would probably be totally different tomorrow -riffs below are fantastic nonetheless! first 5 will never be omitted though....
1. Love is a rodeo - Golden Earring
2. Career of evil - Blue Öyster cult
3. Son and daughter - Queen
4. The Ocean - Led Zeppelin
5. Ain't talkin bout love - Van Halen
6. Into the Void - Black Sabbath
7. Homicidal suicidal - Budgie
8. To cry you a Song - Jethro Tull
9. Changin' times - Nazareth
10. Kvelertak - Kvelertak
11. Burn - Deep Purple
12. Prince of the Rodeo - Turbonegro
13. Stargazer - Rainbow
14. The King Will Come - Wishbone Ash
15. I've got a feeling - The Beatles
16. Bad Penny - Rory Gallagher
17. All through the Night - Gentle Giant
18. Give me the Good Earth - Manfred Mann's Earth Band
19. Stone Cold Fever - Humble Pie
20. Back in the Saddle - Aerosmith
Brian May: one of the best guitarists of all time, maybe the most iconic tone of them all, multible big hits under his name, best paid guitarist alive - yet never mentioned in any video about iconic riffs/guitarists...
THEkullerpuller you're crazy. Brian may is a mediocre guitarist. Also pretty much no queen songs have a solid guitar riff, and the ones that do aren't that memorable at all
Jacob Barrett One Vision is the answer to that and Brian May is certainly not a mediocre guitarist
Jacob Barrett you haven't heard Ogre Battle, Great King Rat, Liar... and all the other stuff from the first five Queen Albums.
Jacob Barrett don't say that, ok queen's riffs are not the most famous but brian's solos are always magnificent
Jacob Barrett if you think that then go listen to more Queen than just the stuff they play on the radio. Brian May is a criminally underrated guitarist and one one of the best and most brilliant guitarists of all time.
I've gotta pick up the guitar again. Been on a 2 and a half year hiatus and my fingers are itching to play some music.
Elegance Gaming quiet
Yeah me too, planning to buy a Fender Strat and a Marshall/Fender Amp
Get to it, man.
You can play whatever you want in a guitar store...
Great play!
I could listen to this everyday also anyone else in October 2019.
Thanks for likes
Yess
hello, november 2019 right here!!!
I discovered my now favorite song through this video. Thank you for introducing me to Layla 😍
Black Hammer Productions good choice. It’s sooooooooo amazing 😂
Oh my God I love those riffs!! I have a guitar that I'm going to get restrung.
Esta seleção musical não desilude. Preferia só poder ouvir estas 20 músicas para o resto da vida do que ter que aturar a porcaria que anda por aí a ser chamada de música indevidamente :) Excelente trabalho Cláudio, quero ver mais disto.
Thanks!
Why so Many dislikes? The guy is great!!💯 you are envious AF !
this video makes me so happy
These are iconic, not the best.
Don’t blame me, I’m a Beatles and Elvis fan.
I was thinking the same about his picks of guitar riffs.
Throughout the whole video i was thinking “the beatles and stones better be on here
IKR
AC/DC will always be one of the best
Stairway to heaven?
*DENIED*
Interesting list. 😁 Wouldn’t think to see Clapton w/my beloved Iron Maiden on a list, but I see the argument. 😬 You’re EXTREMELY talented! Keep on rockin’! 🤘
This vid reminds me of why I took up playing guitar, all I wanted to play was wicked riffs like these. Fantastic clip
Thanks for watching!
Cool. I like the way your segway into each riff and use the same guitar.
Also your backing tracks are quite good.
Vintage!!! Great, high quality guitars! Have the same one(and a red one) and it’s the best, if not the best, one I own and I play it out everywhere!!
5:19 thank God the trooper is in there, you can play guitar so good! :D
yeah ! your right
2019 still top riffs
Amazing Talent !!!
Sub + Like !
Keep up the good work!
Thanks man!
Best first 39 seconds of my life in youtube
Great top I really liked it just one thing you missed "rock you like a hurricane" of Scorpions but a great top buddy 👍👍🤟🤟🤟
I thought the same
Thank you very much!
For me, the riffs are almost the best part of the song... so I'm gonna listen to this for a while instead of listening to the actual songs :P
You're an awesome player!
ed771 He's not playing the guitar..
Bliss yeah he is...
Não conhecia. Obrigado Ainanas por me dares a conhecer este SENHOR.Ouvi dizer que "fez uns riffs" a uma rapariga quando era jovem....(ja sabem o resto)Parabéns e venham mais videos. ;)
the bends looked so satisfyingly perfect
Tristan Van Dam I LOVE YOUR PROFILE PICTURE
Wait people don’t do that
Ups no green day in here
Loved it! Thanks
he seriously cut it off when the actual riff was gonna start in rage against the machine.
Daniel Lerma I was expecting that either
ikr
This guy's the music teacher everyone had when they started playing guitar lol
2:40 the harmony makes it even better
Awesome job, what a great video mate 🤟🤟
Thanks man!
I Love this Video! ^_^ The Music and Guitar Riffs are amazing! ^_^
My favourite riff will always be the “Boys don’t cry” one from the Cure 😜
All with one Guitar - this is awesome.^^
Great compilation. Congrats.
Now make 20 videos showing us how to play all off them 😂😂😂 ( honestly would actually rlly want to play these)
" En la música todos los sentimientos vuelven a su estado puro y el mundo no es sino música hecha realidad " Excelente video. Muy buen trabajo!
Gracias!
I would have liked to see For Whom The Bell Tolls and Money For Nothing but great job man.
There's Money for nothing on my second version of this video. Go check it out. Cheers
Cool stuff! Sounds great
