Thank you

I actually think this is a great tutorial. I don't need a BS introduction and commentary. Just show me how to play the damn song. Great job.

fosdyke71 thanks :)

So... I came here because I was watching a video about Final Fantasy 14, the video game. And in the comments someone said:
_"The only thing missing from this insane, constantly interrupted clip, is the Benny Hill Show theme. That phone call and the "shit show" mumbling. Comedy gold."_ Since I've been playing guitar and a fan of Benny Hill since I was a child in the 70's, I decided I had to learn this little ditty finally. But the best part is you sound like you could be his younger cousin. ^-^

I would like a tab notation of this song, it still hard to follow on the video.

[@AmericanBulliesClaytonandLakai]

Very nice!

[@JaimeCerrada]

It is hard to follow if you do a vibrato in each note and if you take off the hand from the fingerboard each time. Anyway, thank you for the tutorial.

[@lone-wolf-1]

It's very hard to follow you. You could make it a bit more challenging by playing and talking faster, explaining in depth the historic musical correlation of the fretted notes, and hiding your fingers after fretting notes instantly and constantly . Otherwise, a nice lesson :-)

Don't be a byotch, at least he can play it

[@dionermen842]

One its called yakety axe on guitar. 2 its not actually right note wise. You nust ttanscribed it from sax. Watch, chet atkins play it.

[@aylbdrmadison1051]

Found another lesson that plays it like Chet, but it's nowhere near as charming as this guy if you're a Benny Hill fan.
In fact, the awkward (I find it) way of playing this just adds to the comedic effect of the tune.
As a side note, he does mention Yakety Axe as well as Yakey Sax at the beginning of the video. 0:18

[@epickillerboy200]

bit to fast mate

[@hahaheyitsmeagain1416]

49 to 1:00 was real sloppy. Hard to follow.

[@mrdfk9410]

Lmao

[@wrestlenewsnetwork5564]

This is like an octave too low.

[@chrisb8075]

Would help if you actually had the right notes ffs

[@MCNickchannel]

This tutorial, very hard for starting guitarists, and old players, but the riff is easy. Why you explain so very bad?
