So many people say Slash is overrated, but he's one of my favorite guitarists ever. Few people can make their instrument sing the way Slash does. There's a goosebumps inducing moment at least once in every Slash solo. The guy simply knows how to get the most musical sounding playing out of his guitar.
Yea I hear ya. He doesn't over play or shred a million notes for the sake of it. He simply 'serves the song'. And serves it well. He is a master of vibrato and choosing the right notes to hold.
Not disagreeing with ya at all. Slash is incredible. But If you love a singing les Paul. Listen to Gary Moore. He’s my all time favourite. Definitely check him out if you haven’t heard of him already man :)
Because he’s not a shred machine and theory buff guitar elitists like to put him down. But fact is without shredding and having a great deal of theory behind him, he evokes more emotion then all of these guitar elitists combined. Which makes him one fo the best to ever do it. He is a freak.
Habits of slash: 1) Wear leather boots, leather pants, a top hat and aviators. 2) Let guitar hang at crotch level or lower 3) Lift guitar perpendicular to the ground for solos 4) Generally be badass
My first gig was a slash gig. People don't like him cause he doesn't do insanely fast shred licks but he's an amazing guitarist ! Apocalyptic Love is an amazing album
Crysis Music he plays with some great soul and feeling and although he doesn't always do it he can play quite fast as well. Absolutely great guitarist, can do quite it all
Remember guys, Slash also adds notes to a bend. So for example you bend on the 15th fret on the B string, then add the note below that too the bend (in this case the 15th fret of the e) Especially in november rain, don't cry sweet child and more
Also, in November rain, he does this thing where he hits a chord on the e and then right after playing that note he plays that same note on the b string.
u can always just listnin to his records and learn by ear ?... like he and many other probably did and develop ur own style. Could be wrong might be me.
You're absolutely right! In fact I've always been searching for my own "voice", which is way more important than learning other people's stuff. But I really love Randy Rhoads, and I'm actually studying his style, just to have some kind of musical information and ideas at my disposal, but, you know, as a self-taught guitarist, I really can't do more than the "obvious", so I would really appreciate a video about his playing. But anyways, you're right, I have to find my own style and my own "habits", so, yeah, peace! Thanks for reminding me what is the actual most important thing for a musician!
Tj Si the problem with slash why people think he shit is cuz they want him to play his most popular stuff like wtf. He’ve been playing it for so long like at this point it doesn’t even matter to him. See him playing actual jazz bluess and even doing alot more soloing in a more technical and musical sense and he def wouldn’t be shit now.
Make sure to check out Modern Rock Guitar Techniques (bit.ly/MODROCKae) for a full breakdown of some of the techniques I used in this lesson. Also, comment and let me know which guitarist I should break down the habits of next!
No wah-wah way! Lol Regardless, he has carved his mark on stone as being one of the most influential guitarists of all time. I love all of his work (sounds biased but it's all good) and his style of playing inspires my own playing.
Sanchay Wadhwa I have a very unpopular opinion - I don't really enjoy listening to Jimmy Page that much except for Immigrant Song. At the moment he doesn't seem to stand out to me that much except for being sloppy vide in Whole Lotta Love
+Jakub Turlinski, might I suggest listening to some of his wonderful acoustic work? Give a listen to Rain Song, Bron yr-Aur Stomp and Going to California. Or In My Time of Dying if you're more into some electric blues.
In sweet child Slash uses a E minor harmonic scale for the first part, and a E Aeolian for the second part. Night train : A Aeolian. outa get me : G Dorian ect.. There is no Slash scale. You can't even say that Slash uses the scale shown in this video more than others. Slash uses Aeolian very often, Dorian often, Minor Harmonic sometimes, Pentatonic minor and major very often, and the blues note of course, and the major third too. The most evident thing that defines Slash guitar playing is the uses of the minor Pentatonic scale with the blues note and the major third. This makes his guitar playing sounds very chromatic and that's what defines Slash guitar playing, he sounds chromatic.
This is pure gold , I am a huge slash fan and am always looking for info on how to play in his style whatever song you play , this has got some great pointers , I know what make up the elements of his style like you said but showing us how to adapt it to whatever whenever we play is so valuable, , I will be studying this and writing notes to myself . I like the breaking down of a style to show how you can adapt it to different progressions and how it fits in with theory. Thanks so much for this post
Great video my friend! im an old slash fan and i do all of the things you taught here, just didnt break it down like that, i need to work on the bending vibrato though, thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much for all these habit videos. They aren't made to make us play EXACTLY like them, but more so what they do in the writing and solos that make the player. Love the videos Tyler, keep going strong! P.S. I've wanted a slash habits video for so long now lol.
Another habit that is less technique but more observation is that Slash makes the first note count in his solos. Sometimes precluded by a chromatic run (you got no right) or bluesy fill (jungle)
I've also noticed Slash to be an avid pre-bender. He'll have a note already bent, then slowly bring it back to pitch in the middle of a solo. Great stuff!
Slash have some what Satriani-ish style going on in his phrasing and his scales mixed with blues. Love everything he does. When Slash plays, you'll know its him 🤘👌
fantastic green guitar, great observations, also one of his techniques I noticed as he goes higher up the frets he points the neck more straight up toward the sky to get his power or source of finger strength and speed closer to the body, thus pushing sideways across his body rather from underneath.
People saying he's overrated yet he was the lead guitarist and helped record the best selling debut Album of all time on a Chibson and now Gibson makes replicas of a replica
tyler i know i am going to ask something which is beyond human btu with the way you explain things only you can nail it. With that said could you do "habits of ALLAN HOLDSWORTH?" once more i am asking far too much but the way you put across things is so simple and easy to grasp which in itself is a great gift. Once more thanks for everything you share, mad respect and love. take care buddie,
Rudraksh & Nishil's there would be a fair bit of stuff to talk about, like how he bends up to a note but doesn't play the bend or the release, also in a few of his solos he always does this little lick on the e string that's a bit of a habit
+Music is Win Thanks for posting. I really dig your videos. They reinforce a lot of things I have learned and teach me so much that I haven't. Your videos teach complex lessons but are great for everyone. In my opinion they are at just the right pace no matter where you are in your study. You also have a great set up that sounds awesome. Thanks my friend, see you next time.
I get all that, have done for nearly 20 years but, no way could I explain it like you!!Obviously you can play, you have a skill in breaking down habits and conveying them. I can't get my head round how you did that. I can do Slash, Hendrix, Gilmour, knofler e.t.c. I can pick their habits up but not explain them like you. good on you dude, you'll go far
Wish I had this when I was just learning guitar when I was a huge Slash fan(still am a little)! Lol! Tyler, when ya comin' back to Island for another clinic?! Take care! 😉👍
You are a ridiculously good player. I’m hopefully going to start learning to play guitar after my first year of high school, and I’m going to come back to this video (and many of your other ones) for good advice.
What? Habits of Slash? NICE! You took my suggestion, apparently! (I'm sure a lot of other people suggested it too, but I'm just sayin'...) I haven't even watched it yet, but I had to say THANKS!!! Now, on to the video!
Been watching for a long ass time Tyler. Love the videos. The thing you mentioned about using your thumb when applying vibrato to bends finally made it click for me. Mine has always sounded sketchy as hell but it's already way better after 30 mins practising with the anchor thumb!
Strap-locks, one of the crucial things that people don't teach beginner guitarists. I've had the displeasure of watching my first guitar arc through the air in front of my face because the strap came off the knob opposite of the neck and swung around to the front right before it bounced on hard flooring...
for me slash was the reason i picked up a guitar and why i gravitated to the les paul, (other then i think it lookest the coolest, but flying vs look sick to) but that Appetite les paul the flamed maple top , the colour, the trapezoid inlays, where the pickup selector is the covered pickups) all things i think make the les paul my favourite looks wise and tone? oh my the sounds n tones slash makes are almost metal/rock and blues my 3 favourite generes in one .. and just his vibratos and solos are so complex they are hard for me to play , im a inntermidiate player only but still i can get down clapton layla, symphony of destruction, whom the bells toll, puppets but the november rain solo is hard as fck for me lol anyways i love my les paul cause of slash, and the #2 guy is clapton when i dial in that woman tone i could stay there for hours man i own 3 guitars my first one i got when i was 8 it is a Strat chinese knockoff (not even squire) that ive brought back to life new pickups,strings polish, the 2nd one was my first "real guitar " a epiphone Slash les paul special ii Afd, which is a hot sounding guitar and my newest and most expensive is a Epiphone Les Paul 50s standard gold top (that ones my baby lol)
Seth B I'm guessing you are only thinking about November rain and Sweet Child O Mine, there are tons more than that, including some of his solos in his Appetite, World on Fire etc
Check out Ain't life Grand (the album) by Slash's snakepit if you haven't before. Such a great post-GnR album. Velvet Revolver was awesome too. Slash is more than his solo's imo, just a great guitar player, his sound just really works for me.
That guitar reminds me of the guitar that Chad Kroeger was playing while covering Sharp Dressed Man by ZZ Top with the Nickelback. Amazing guitar and even more amazing cover!
Biggest proof that slash is a Guitar GOD is his Les Paul. No whammy bar,No 5-way switch, Single cut.. and yet he can make you drool like a rabid dog. It takes REAL Talent to create awesome iconic solos that survives time like he does.
People should listen to some Blues jam with Slash. Really really good i must say. That man can truly sing thru his guitar in a way that few can. His melodic solos and great bending/vibrato 👏👏
hey buddy great vid can you do one demonstrating what exactly double stops are and how to play them in their simplest ways for someone who doesn't know what those are
Can you do a habits of Randy Rhodes, Synyster Gates or Prince? btw you are by far the best guitar channel on UA-cam! Your approach is so good it makes it interesting for all levels of guitar players! Could you also speak about your paid course a little more and your time at berkeley? I'm going to music college next year and would love an insight into what it was like. keep up the great work man \m/
Great video, the only thing missing is Slash's black top hat. I wish you had that on your head during the video but that would be the only way to make an improvement. Thanks for the instruction as always.
Slash was the reason I first got interested in rock and electric guitar. When i first heard sweet child of mine 3 years ago, I was like rock is not so bad after all. Till then I had the same impression that all mainstream listeners had for rock and metal - that they're associated with destruction, satanic vibes, and just crazy senseless guitar gimmicks. Now, all that has changed, and I frickin love Rock and Metal. - Best Genre Ever!
So many people say Slash is overrated, but he's one of my favorite guitarists ever. Few people can make their instrument sing the way Slash does. There's a goosebumps inducing moment at least once in every Slash solo. The guy simply knows how to get the most musical sounding playing out of his guitar.
Joe Romano ya especialy when they finaly play sweet child o mine
Yea I hear ya. He doesn't over play or shred a million notes for the sake of it. He simply 'serves the song'. And serves it well. He is a master of vibrato and choosing the right notes to hold.
Slash is better than ever. Check out Apocalyptic Love
Not disagreeing with ya at all. Slash is incredible. But If you love a singing les Paul. Listen to Gary Moore. He’s my all time favourite. Definitely check him out if you haven’t heard of him already man :)
Because he’s not a shred machine and theory buff guitar elitists like to put him down. But fact is without shredding and having a great deal of theory behind him, he evokes more emotion then all of these guitar elitists combined. Which makes him one fo the best to ever do it. He is a freak.
Habits of slash:
1) Wear leather boots, leather pants, a top hat and aviators.
2) Let guitar hang at crotch level or lower
3) Lift guitar perpendicular to the ground for solos
4) Generally be badass
5) Only play a les paul
And be fucking badass a lot
Drink Jack Daniel and smoke Marlboro every now and then
Zoltán Kiss or all of the time
+Gaming Music There's the point, my friend!
Habits Of Slash: posting the porn he watched to his IG
Evil Smile邪惡之笑 wait is that a thing?
@@matthewbehrle4428 look at his IG
haha yeah😂
LMAO LITERALLY
His Instagram is pretty interesting
My first gig was a slash gig. People don't like him cause he doesn't do insanely fast shred licks but he's an amazing guitarist ! Apocalyptic Love is an amazing album
Crysis Music agree!
He is awesome beceause he doesn't play crazy fast shit.
He really knows what he's doing.
Crysis Music he plays with some great soul and feeling and although he doesn't always do it he can play quite fast as well. Absolutely great guitarist, can do quite it all
was literally in tears when i saw him recently with GnR. hes so fuckin good
He does go pretty fast though :D Not Petrucci tier fast but he definitely shreds
Remember guys, Slash also adds notes to a bend. So for example you bend on the 15th fret on the B string, then add the note below that too the bend (in this case the 15th fret of the e) Especially in november rain, don't cry sweet child and more
That's the blues influence that he talks about. The Aeolians
*above. It's the note ABOVE because it's HIGHER in pitch. Due to how he guitar is tuned it's a minor third relative to the bent note (1 step up).
Also, in November rain, he does this thing where he hits a chord on the e and then right after playing that note he plays that same note on the b string.
Habits include Heroin, pot, drinking, get up around 7, and get out of bed around 9.
Get on the bus sip and feel fine 😉

If I ever get a "Habits of Randy Rhoads" video, I swear I'll practice four hours per day, every day, for the rest of my days.

Wow, thanks man!
Johny Quid Why are you so nice xD
Awesome vid, but you keep saying "He was..." Slash is still alive yknow
Tj Si the problem with slash why people think he shit is cuz they want him to play his most popular stuff like wtf. He’ve been playing it for so long like at this point it doesn’t even matter to him. See him playing actual jazz bluess and even doing alot more soloing in a more technical and musical sense and he def wouldn’t be shit now.
@@TjSi well it's your opinion,I think slash is cool.
Slash is like Santa Claus.
@@TjSi Im a big fan of Slash but thats okay if you say that hes crap , its your opinion , I cant say anything about it :D
Lineage he’s an idiot lol gotta say
Make sure to check out Modern Rock Guitar Techniques (bit.ly/MODROCKae) for a full breakdown of some of the techniques I used in this lesson. Also, comment and let me know which guitarist I should break down the habits of next!
Music is Win Marty Friedman
Music is Win Marty Friedman. Please make it happen.
ChaRudatTa MuNdE hell yeah
Music is Win Randy Rhoads!!
Ritchie Blackmore as well please
Habits of Kirk Hammett: Wah wah wha... and wah
Don't forget wah-wah
I just found out that Kirk Hammett uses a wah pedal!
No wah-wah way! Lol Regardless, he has carved his mark on stone as being one of the most influential guitarists of all time. I love all of his work (sounds biased but it's all good) and his style of playing inspires my own playing.
wah did you say?
I said wah-wahzup???
Heroin addiction?? That was definitely a habit.
𝕽ick 𝕮leek HAHAHA
omg so true
𝕽ick 𝕮leek Heroin, cocaine, alcohol... and who knows what
Yeah, look Phil Anselmo for example
it was for most rock musicians in the 80s. get over it.
Please do a "Habits of Angus Young"...
start every song on A
no hate love AC DC
It's fine, there some truth behind that...
Karl Simon
Just sell your soul to the devil bro
Wow, this has to be my most liked comment ever, and it's not even a forced meme comment. Thanks, guys! xD
Karl Simon lol just, just lie and spin around the floor and you will be Angus freaking Young
Habits of Jimmy Page. It needs to be done Tyler.
Sanchay Wadhwa I have a very unpopular opinion - I don't really enjoy listening to Jimmy Page that much except for Immigrant Song.
At the moment he doesn't seem to stand out to me that much except for being sloppy vide in Whole Lotta Love
Jakub Turliński have you listened to since I've been loving you, and especially the solo at around 3:30 in the song
+Jakub Turlinski, might I suggest listening to some of his wonderful acoustic work? Give a listen to Rain Song, Bron yr-Aur Stomp and Going to California. Or In My Time of Dying if you're more into some electric blues.
Sanchay Wadhwa Here let me sum up Page's bends: If youre gunna miss, miss big.
Sanchay Wadhwa
I can see it now..
"Strap super low, use pinky constantly, and duck face."
He also has an insane work ethic, if he isn't playing like right now , he's doing something related to music.
The "Slash Scale" looks like a combination of the Blues Scale and Dorian mode.
I AM Z absolutly , slash use dorian pentatanic for fast lick (outro november rain , solo sweet child ...)
Baptiste Hannecart thanks for confirming. I am a big fan of Slash's playing and am very interested in dissecting his technique :)
I AM Z me too , you'r welcome;)
Exactly what I thought.
In sweet child Slash uses a E minor harmonic scale for the first part, and a E Aeolian for the second part.
Night train : A Aeolian.
outa get me : G Dorian
ect..
There is no Slash scale. You can't even say that Slash uses the scale shown in this video more than others.
Slash uses Aeolian very often, Dorian often, Minor Harmonic sometimes, Pentatonic minor and major very often, and the blues note of course, and the major third too.
The most evident thing that defines Slash guitar playing is the uses of the minor Pentatonic scale with the blues note and the major third. This makes his guitar playing sounds very chromatic and that's what defines Slash guitar playing, he sounds chromatic.
I beg thee for a habits of lil wayne please I promise to practise 25 hours a day plsplspls
open bibles on his night stands, broken bottles in his bars, and thinks more than he forgets
Abishai Choragudi You said THEE
There’s only 24 hours a day. lil Wayne isn’t that good either.
Roy Droll it's a joke and you probably didn't get it
MrMitchell2002 just got it, damn I feel like an idiot.
I have been a fan of his for the past decade. But this was the best slash lesson that I have ever seen! Nothing on UA-cam comes close to this!
This is pure gold , I am a huge slash fan and am always looking for info on how to play in his style whatever song you play , this has got some great pointers , I know what make up the elements of his style like you said but showing us how to adapt it to whatever whenever we play is so valuable, , I will be studying this and writing notes to myself .

Could you do Habits of Clapton please ? Thanks a lot for your helpfull videos :)
He likes to leave his windows unlocked
Do Habits of John Frusciante
Humuhumunukunukuapua'a That's an interesting suggestion. He has a very unique style of playing.
You, I like
Humuhumunukunukuapua'a yesssss
OP is a smart dude
YESSSSSSSSSS
Great video my friend! im an old slash fan and i do all of the things you taught here, just didnt break it down like that, i need to work on the bending vibrato though, thanks for sharing!
You keep saying “He Was” he’s still alive and he’s still thriving making some of the best albums, “World in Fire” and “Apocalyptic Love”
could you please do dimebag next?
0:30 at this moment I thought you were going to the riff of Slither
Thanks so much for all these habit videos. They aren't made to make us play EXACTLY like them, but more so what they do in the writing and solos that make the player. Love the videos Tyler, keep going strong!
P.S. I've wanted a slash habits video for so long now lol.
Slash scale is a blues dorian scale if you want to "Identify" it...
Alexandros Vavatzanidis hey dude is there a fingering pic you can find me for that scale?
I love these lessons! I tend to have insufficient patience for learning explicit licks, but I love thinking about what makes up a certain style.
Another habit that is less technique but more observation is that Slash makes the first note count in his solos. Sometimes precluded by a chromatic run (you got no right) or bluesy fill (jungle)
I've also noticed Slash to be an avid pre-bender. He'll have a note already bent, then slowly bring it back to pitch in the middle of a solo. Great stuff!

This is spot on! One of my all time favorite guitarists! great job.
Habits of Gary Moore please :)
Tarık Ayyıldız yes!
One term: Circle of fifths progressions ;)
All the vibrato and all the feels!!!
Gain on 11, Reverb on 11, Vibrato on 11, and Feel on 11.
Feel 11+10000000
MiW - you lost me for a while - but your Slash vid brought me back. More Slash vids please man - i likey likey.
Habits of UA-cam guitariists:
Wear a t-shirt of the band I'm playing
Slash is the reason why I started playing, and he's the reason I've had no desire to stop. I'm so excited to see G n' R in concert this summer.
Habits of Buckethead please or Hendrix
Yes Buckethead! Would be fucking amazing!
I don't think he's prepared to play Buckethead...
Max Savage there are just a few if any at all! Buckethead is really out of this world
Buckethead: Just have a killswitch and get creative.
Hendrix: Just generally be amazing
This my good Sir, is one of my favorite videos by you yet
has everyone forgotten about one of the original guitar gods Mr Jimmy Page?! do him please
That's what most of these videos are. The legends. And I highly doubt anyone has forgotten him.
He was in the culture club wasnt he ???
Only teen groupies “do him.”
fantastic green guitar,
great observations, also one of his techniques I noticed as he goes higher up the frets he points the neck more straight up toward the sky to get his power or source of finger strength and speed closer to the body, thus pushing sideways across his body rather from underneath.
David gilmour habits!
Seth B use the fuzz for sustain and throw the 6 and 9 in the scale like he just showed the slash scale but more bends and precision on notes
You are aware they are off the same concept album, right? Explored themes and all that?
People saying he's overrated yet he was the lead guitarist and helped record the best selling debut Album of all time on a Chibson and now Gibson makes replicas of a replica
liked before watched
tyler i know i am going to ask something which is beyond human btu with the way you explain things only you can nail it.

Hey Tyler! You're in an article made by "Guitar World"! Congrats man! Keep up the good work! :)
habits of david gilmour.please.

Rudraksh & Nishil's there would be a fair bit of stuff to talk about, like how he bends up to a note but doesn't play the bend or the release, also in a few of his solos he always does this little lick on the e string that's a bit of a habit

Surely the "slash custom scale" should start on Eb
Slash will be remembered for rock like BB king is remembered for blues. Legends..
Saul huddson is my favorite gutairst
Lot of people think he's overrated, but he's still my favorite guitar player.
Thanks for making this one!
He is kinda overrated has like 2 good solos that's it.
Seth B I'm guessing you are only thinking about November rain and Sweet Child O Mine, there are tons more than that, including some of his solos in his Appetite, World on Fire etc
Check out Ain't life Grand (the album) by Slash's snakepit if you haven't before. Such a great post-GnR album.
Velvet Revolver was awesome too. Slash is more than his solo's imo, just a great guitar player, his sound just really works for me.
probably Seth B doesn't even know how to play guitar or he is just wanna be
Habits of Jimi Hendrix please !!!
Great videos - I'd love to see Habits of Billy Gibbons, Hendrix, Buckethead, Satriani and David Gilmour
Habits of lil Wayne
Guy Crawshaw just hit the strings open and yell the n word

Tyler this was a really great one really like your Slash Scale :) keep up the great vids brother man
The best sounding guitar player ever.
That guitar reminds me of the guitar that Chad Kroeger was playing while covering Sharp Dressed Man by ZZ Top with the Nickelback. Amazing guitar and even more amazing cover!
Habits of John Petrucci!
Is that the PRS Super Eagle in the background starting at 8:57?
John Frusciante pls!
Péter Szalóki yes yes yes
Biggest proof that slash is a Guitar GOD is his Les Paul. No whammy bar,No 5-way switch, Single cut.. and yet he can make you drool like a rabid dog. It takes REAL Talent to create awesome iconic solos that survives time like he does.
habits of Kerry King - play random notes really fast
I laughed. Hard.
Seth Hubbard me too when I first heard that 7 years ago.
1) Being bald
and then dive bomb them all
The best time of the video from 8:30 to the end, almost to tears of classic rock goodness))))
PLINI!
People should listen to some Blues jam with Slash. Really really good i must say. That man can truly sing thru his guitar in a way that few can. His melodic solos and great bending/vibrato 👏👏
Habits of Jimi Hendrix?
Dime BagBarrells
Lol that would be alot of habits. Want to see him playing with his teeth hahahaha
hey buddy great vid can you do one demonstrating what exactly double stops are and how to play them in their simplest ways for someone who doesn't know what those are
god I just read "rabbits of slash"
Victor Lucas I read hobbits of slash
Can you do a habits of Randy Rhodes, Synyster Gates or Prince? btw you are by far the best guitar channel on UA-cam! Your approach is so good it makes it interesting for all levels of guitar players! Could you also speak about your paid course a little more and your time at berkeley? I'm going to music college next year and would love an insight into what it was like. keep up the great work man \m/
Habits of Jeff Healey. I dare youuu!
Great video, the only thing missing is Slash's black top hat. I wish you had that on your head during the video but that would be the only way to make an improvement. Thanks for the instruction as always.
habbits of david gilmour
Slash was the reason I first got interested in rock and electric guitar. When i first heard sweet child of mine 3 years ago, I was like rock is not so bad after all. Till then I had the same impression that all mainstream listeners had for rock and metal - that they're associated with destruction, satanic vibes, and just crazy senseless guitar gimmicks. Now, all that has changed, and I frickin love Rock and Metal. - Best Genre Ever!
