    Playing an AC/DC song correctly is a lot harder than people think. Timing and feel is everything with them.

      One things I have found with AC/DC stuff even though I am a beginner is it has huge sound but I am surprised at how often you actually need quite a light touch when picking to get the correct sound.

    • @SDReelsOnline
      @SDReelsOnline 3 роки тому +1

      I noticed another video of someone trying to teach the introduction, but the timing was off. This one is a bit better.

      I always laugh when people say AC/DC is 3 chord easy.
      When you really break down -For Those about to Rock, Highway to hell, or You Shook Me......you find out that Malcom is a genius and he isn't doing it the easy way. He plays intricate rhythm parts and never misses. The muting you have to do on Highway to Hell to stop the chords ringing is challenging not to mention the D/F# that quick changes to a G power chord. I have heard very few bands that can actually play it as recorded.

    Justin, nobody pays more attention to detail than you do, AND you make me laugh! Like when you were getting into Malcolm's intro to this song and said "I feel like I'm dirtying Malcolm's part!" hilarious... You always give us a great lesson with both you're teaching and playing ability... And of course in each video something to smile or laugh about. God Bless and keep them coming.

      I was watching the music video from Big Country and the song by the same name. Bruce Watson looks to be playing a similar style gretch? maybe other type never fully seen the headstock. Sorry to distract from ACDC. I always struggled with the intro to For Those About To Rock! I salute you buddy.

    I'm almost certain that for the intro you keep the middle string of the three open to give the 'harmonics' but I am playing on acoustic.
    I'd be very interested to know what all you electric players think.
    Fantastic song and brilliant lesson as usual!
