  • Hi guys! Welcome to lesson 56 of Learn That Solo! Today we look at how to play the solo from 'Open Your Eyes' by Alter Bridge which is off the 'One Day Remains' album.
    This solo isn't to bad but the weird tuning does change the string tension in some weird ways. The 2nd and 3rd string just felt really strange in the DADADD tuning. Anyway enjoy it guys as it's quite win.
    Take care guys! Happy shredding!

    i've wanted to learn this solo for probably 5 years and couldn't do it. your video made it 10000x easier to learn thank you!

  • @chriszoupa7898
    @chriszoupa7898  12 років тому +2

    Thanks for all the requests dude. I've got between 30-50 solos I've got to learn but I'll get there eventually.

    My secret's out! Nah man no pick. It's a terrible habit I developed as a child. I file my middle finger nail a certain way. I get really close to the strings. It helps my speed.
