I absolutely love the guys from Steel Panther, they're just having fun with what they do and you know what? That's what heavy metal is about. Enjoying the music and just having a blast while doing it.
I love satchel sm but James Is my guy so seeing this made me very happy, Satchel has very amazing taste and is actually a very humble kind dude, he actually just loves music and musicians around him aswell, people forget even tho they are never serious there still people!
haha.. came for the riffs.. stayed for the douchiness. Big Steel Panther fan, I like a lot the guitar sound in the albums and how good it is emulated here too, I'd like to know what the rig to that would be. "Death to all but metal (and internet, don't forget internet)"
My favorite line : "It' gone triple platnum, in parts of the Philipeans, not so much in the U.S." GOD, what a killer line! Kind of Spinal Tapish in it's own way. LOVE this band. In high school in '86 they would have fit right in.
This guy is a very tight guitar player when it comes to playin live shows. he is actually very good and has a great attitude bout rock n roll. support this guy
i am a bit jealous. as they just seem to be having the best time!! i think their appeal is based on the fact they really don't seem to take themselves seriously. at all. ever.
This riff is so easy when you play it slow, that this lesson is actually sarcastic. Love it. (Not saying if you can't play this riff you suck, but try playing it slow for a goddamn second lol)
"It's like a classic metal, song and riff AND solo in parts of the Philippines..." So funny. Steel Panther is what the music industry has needed. Here are four very talented musicians, putting out great music and not taking themselves too seriously. They are having fun and many are having fun with them. I can't wait to see them in Vegas next month!!!
I love this guy! He is, without a doubt, the last 80's Glam Metal holdout. His attitude and look are pure 80's. A good guitarist as well. Not great, but good. The lyrics to Panthers songs are pure fun. Long live Steel Panther!
for those who dont know, this guy was the guitarist of ROB HALFORD's band FIGHT, so he is as metal as it gets, he can play Metal, Glam, it dont matter he is great at all of it
@frtknokr the closer your fingers are, the less they have to move to hit other notes, it helps with speed and stuff. It also helps mute the other strings so they don't ring out unintentionally. It relates to what he says about playing the riff on 1 string vs 2, just faster, but yeah, it doesn't really help see what they're playing.
people making fun of him for the way he dresses haha.. Hes actually playing a character, because when hes not on stage or doing interviews hes not wearing that wig/make up or acting like a "rock star." its all an act, thats why i love it. and hes an awesome guitar player. Just listen to their last cd. Its hilarious, great sounding and all that good stuff.
This guy is a completely legit guitar player. Look up some f his old stuff, his real name is Russ Parrish, he was even in a band with Paul Gilbert at one point in time and they covered a bunch of different tunes, pretty killer!
@ChrisHaspeck No! The eighties are never over as long as we keep it alive with guys like Satchel and bands like Steel Panther. Long live big hair! Long live ripped fishnet shirts! Long live...well, you get the picture!
@09phillt you cant buy the same one cos his is an original 80's pacer but you can buy a re-issue for about £250 so thats probably $450ish if your across the pond Kramer Pacer Classic
I don't know about the tag "mock-rocker". He's entertaining with a quick wit (who also knows it's parody), plus he gives some valid advice. I guess people who don't like him or his band just don't get that kind of humor.
They are NOT a glam metal band Geesh... They are a Parody Metalband much like spinal tap but with better musicianship/ Steel Panthers guitarist (Russ Parish ) played in Rob Halfords band 'FIGHT' btw
@never2loud2008 different metal and rock bands such as Judas Priest, Europe, Overkill, Heart, Destruction, Dokken, Ozzy had big haur, which bands r u talking about? Tina Turner also had big hair, would u call her hair metal?
"I almost get fired from Steel Panther one time, and then I reminded the guys that I started the band, so they can't fire me, it's pretty cool." LOL
Me: *laughs in School Of Rock*
This has to be Lars-reference
I absolutely love the guys from Steel Panther, they're just having fun with what they do and you know what? That's what heavy metal is about. Enjoying the music and just having a blast while doing it.
I love how he's funny while still being able to teach the riffs and give advice.
Best youtube guitar comment ever by a player..."that sounds like an easy riff because I'm playing it killer."
Pretty much sums it up.
"If I were James Hetfield...but I'm not that good"
Awesome.
This guy's the fucking man.
I love satchel sm but James Is my guy so seeing this made me very happy, Satchel has very amazing taste and is actually a very humble kind dude, he actually just loves music and musicians around him aswell, people forget even tho they are never serious there still people!
This is really clean footage and looks brand new especially for an mid eighties guitar lesson
Steel panther is one of the worlds best heavy metal bands ever
Almost
This man is a legend. "thats sounds like an easy riff coz i'm playing it killer" LOL.
haha.. came for the riffs.. stayed for the douchiness.
Big Steel Panther fan, I like a lot the guitar sound in the albums and how good it is emulated here too, I'd like to know what the rig to that would be.
"Death to all but metal (and internet, don't forget internet)"
Russ great advice "start your own band then you won't get fired" A+
love the sound of his guitar.....room filling !
Satchel is my new favourite guitar guru. The down- up technique has just transformed my playing! Awesome!
"If I was James Hetfield it would all be downpicked" I laughed so goddamn hard.
Your awesome Satchel when I saw you & Rest of Steel Panther at The big top In Sydney Australia back in June it was amazing
My favorite line : "It' gone triple platnum, in parts of the Philipeans, not so much in the U.S." GOD, what a killer line! Kind of Spinal Tapish in it's own way. LOVE this band. In high school in '86 they would have fit right in.
"Triple Platinum in the Philippines, for illegal downloads." Hahaha, I'm from the Philippines and its funny. 😂😂😂
This guy is a very tight guitar player when it comes to playin live shows. he is actually very good and has a great attitude bout rock n roll. support this guy
Wow Satchel you feel that down picking only is harder than alternate? I find it's usually the opposite with me...
playing a fast riff with only downpicks is alot harder than just going up down up down imo. (assuming you can alternate pick to begin with)
He's mocking Jame's playing, its a known Metallica mock. Each person usually has a different thing difficult too
@@timothycirylhuntingtoniii3898 But you have to Down pick only to get that kind of Chug.
@@ThunderPantz01 Freaky brah!! I'm actually watching Steel Panther right now on here haha!!!
"I've seen some kids doing it on one string and it's possible but it sounds cooler if you play it on 2 strings" LMFAO :D
Lmao i love when he says hes going to play it slow, then just completely takes the piss with it
His tone and teaching is great!
i am a bit jealous. as they just seem to be having the best time!! i think their appeal is based on the fact they really don't seem to take themselves seriously. at all. ever.
by far the most entertaining interview
I like this guy's sense of humor. Thanks Satchel!
A+ for humor and attitude. Rock on good sir!!!
Satchel was a G.I.T. instructor that is why he is so engaging with this lesson.
I was learning the song so hard atm my D string broke!
MY FORESKIN BROKE
haha This was the best guitar vid I have watched in years.
Great tone
This riff is so easy when you play it slow, that this lesson is actually sarcastic. Love it. (Not saying if you can't play this riff you suck, but try playing it slow for a goddamn second lol)
I'VE LEARNED SO MUCH AS A DRUMMER, THANKS SATCH'
Satchel is an AMAZING guitarist! he has the chops kids.
"This is it real slow, Check this out." *Plays each note like, a second long.* "Yeah you get the picture."
man, do more of these! this guy is awesome!
i wish i had the idea to start a band like steel panther earlier! lol, freakin love these guys!
Mock Rocker???? DUDE seriously, Satchel can tear it up!! he isn't mock, he's the real deal
I love it. That is the best guitar lesson ever.
"It's like a classic metal, song and riff AND solo in parts of the Philippines..." So funny. Steel Panther is what the music industry has needed. Here are four very talented musicians, putting out great music and not taking themselves too seriously. They are having fun and many are having fun with them. I can't wait to see them in Vegas next month!!!
Man, Satchel is awesome, he's funny and like to joke around and he's also pretty damn good at the guitar.
Love this sound!
"Get Drunk...Slop it up" LOL.
^Words to live by.
LOL!!! Loving this! Also, wish I knew what his rig was in this video... incredible sound.
You´re the man, Satchel!
I love this guy! He is, without a doubt, the last 80's Glam Metal holdout. His attitude and look are pure 80's. A good guitarist as well. Not great, but good. The lyrics to Panthers songs are pure fun. Long live Steel Panther!
Not great, but good??? Tha fuck??
These dudes can’t take anything seriously... and that’s effing awesome!
I think my head just exploded from the awesomeness
He use to be a guitar instructor.
he may be just messing but this is nearly the best lesson ever!
for those who dont know, this guy was the guitarist of ROB HALFORD's band FIGHT, so he is as metal as it gets, he can play Metal, Glam, it dont matter he is great at all of it
best guitar lesson EVER!!!
This mans talent is soooooooooo underrated !!!!
@frtknokr the closer your fingers are, the less they have to move to hit other notes, it helps with speed and stuff. It also helps mute the other strings so they don't ring out unintentionally. It relates to what he says about playing the riff on 1 string vs 2, just faster, but yeah, it doesn't really help see what they're playing.
So many great riffs in this song love it! Sounds similar to Metallica Seek and Destroy and GnR Sweet Child then My Michelle to name a few!
people making fun of him for the way he dresses haha.. Hes actually playing a character, because when hes not on stage or doing interviews hes not wearing that wig/make up or acting like a "rock star." its all an act, thats why i love it. and hes an awesome guitar player. Just listen to their last cd. Its hilarious, great sounding and all that good stuff.
it's the most fantastic distortion that i've ever heard...
To each is own..been a Jackson fan for years..great guitars. Thanks anyways.
Intro Sounds like sped up Live Wire by Mötley Crüe and I love it!
your guitaring career, lol i love these guys
Yeah Satchel you are awesome!
This guy is a completely legit guitar player. Look up some f his old stuff, his real name is Russ Parrish, he was even in a band with Paul Gilbert at one point in time and they covered a bunch of different tunes, pretty killer!
really a great guitar riff!!!
@ChrisHaspeck No! The eighties are never over as long as we keep it alive with guys like Satchel and bands like Steel Panther. Long live big hair! Long live ripped fishnet shirts! Long live...well, you get the picture!
"Bitchin' riff, right?" crack up everytime

Slowed down i sounds like an awesome stoner metal riff.
MarvelDcImage same thing I was thinking lol.
Or black sabbath
i reaally dig the sound! does anybody know something more about his gear?
Hahaha, Guam and Philippines mentioned in two consecutive videos of this dude's lesson.
He'll have fans here (and there) for fucking sure.
Yes! He does have fans here in the philippines and i'm one of them hahaha
I love this guy
This guy is not a douchebag, he just stays in character and his kinda a killer guitarist, lol.
this is hilarious. but you can't deny his guitar tone is killer
@09phillt you cant buy the same one cos his is an original 80's pacer but you can buy a re-issue for about £250 so thats probably $450ish if your across the pond
Kramer Pacer Classic

SATCHEL IS THE MAN! killer riff and solo!
They are NOT a glam metal band Geesh... They are a Parody Metalband much like spinal tap but with better musicianship/
Steel Panthers guitarist (Russ Parish ) played in Rob Halfords band 'FIGHT' btw
verse riff just like into the void
Fucking Google gave me the tab where the main riff is played on the E string instead of 2 strings lol, love this mini lesson tho
Man i love these guys..this is hilarious!
thats a killer ass tone!!
SATCHEL RULES!!! These guys are funny as all hell.
YOU'RE MY HERO!
Such an easy riff and he feels so cool about it :) hilarious guy
awesome. just awesome.
"I nearly got fired from steel panther once, but then i reminded the guys that i started the band..." XD awsome!
the opening riff sounds a lot like live wire
Logan Priest it's live wire played backwards lmao
It does. Just the muting is switched.
Dudes a legend
@jswan1321 Yes, thats the idea, he isn't serious. They're a 'Mock' band.
This is funny awesome! And whats funnier is many people take this funny vid seriously as I read comments, haha!
SATCHEL IS THE MAN!
