Beautiful job on this, what a killer tune. Vai was on top of the guitar world back then, and still right up there 30 plus years later. Thanks for the breakdown, you played that great! 👌🏼 Very nice twelve string too 👍🏼
I love this record, and this song! I was saying to myself that you could be a sessions player- then you mentioned a session, so maybe you are! Thanks for all that you share man! 🤘
EXCELLENT lesson !!! .. outstanding!! .. thank you so much! .. I love this song. Learned it a while back but has faded. Your lesson is exactly what I need. And your guitar sounds so nice! .. fantastic! .. This is absolutely the BEST instruction I have ever seen for this song. The most accurate, the best sounding, the most logical way to play. AWESOME!
Underrated song underrated composition unknown sad to see such a great song Go by the wayside but I'm here listening to it and that's good enough for me and for you congratulations you're a f****** Legend. End of sentence
im trying to learn this and can't figure out what the video in the right hand corner is for? i can't see what you are strumming AND I can't see where your fingers are on the fret board. maybe next time....but thanks for this!
I can see what you are picking in the main video just fine...no need for the other video unless it's a shot of a close up of your fingers on the fret board. @@mastertheguitar
Figured out this tune in 1991 when I was 21 .. play it to this day. My favourite tune ever. Tbh prob the tune I want played as they lower my sorry ass in the ground.

Amazing video man...the hairs were up on my neck hearing you play it, so many years after I last heard the Skyscraper album 👍
Love when I find ACCURATE transcriptions presented quickly. Now to master that crazy turn-around.
Ooft that's my weekend new song to learn. Cheers from Ardrossan! 🤘
Had a wee go there, blimey adding the C bass note is awkward

Excellent video and tutorial. That guitar sounds brilliant too !
Wow that brings back memories and it's a deep cut from the Vai back catalogue. Lovely job, always loved the wee harmonics in the run at the end
Wow... a great cover of a beautiful tune.. always been one of my favs from that album
PERFECTION Mark ! Thanks so much for sharing your craft

Steve Vai writes some great riffs
Fuck, its perfect. Indistinguishable from the album. 😎👌

Yeah, it's for seeing what the strumming/picking hand is doing but I unfortunately sat forward a bit too far a couple of times. 😬

You have to put the “unburst” in the background of your videos!! 😀
