Wasted Years Acoustic Cover Tutorial (Ian Zumback version)

A tutorial on my acoustic cover of Iron Maiden's, Wasted Years (Ian Zumback's version) seen here: • Iron Maiden Wasted Yea...
Ian's original cover here: • "Wasted Years" by Ian ...
I first came across Ian's cover in the Fall of 2023, while going through some tough days. His take on this classic Maiden song touched my heart on a deep level, and inspired me to try my hand at it myself. After posting the song, I've have several people comment, asking for a tutorial on how I tried to play the cover. This is my first attempt at a guitar tutorial, and I'm sure has much room for improvement going forward. :-)

Ian’s cover is incredible, and so is yours. Very inspiring. Thanks for doing this. Incredibly beautiful tone on your guitar too.
