    Thanks dude- I always thought it was tapping in the first part!

      Yw. A lot of people think that but it's not tapping \m/

      @@StephLeGratteux Well if you think about it, doing hammer-ons is essentially like tapping with extra steps.

    The hard part is playing these at the rapid fire speed accurately. I notice a pattern in tons of metal songs like this with hammerons and palm mutes mixed in and then hammerons then pulloffs and normal notes mixed in.

  • @MrBuzzzzz
    @MrBuzzzzz 6 років тому +1

    Very nice work dude. Adrian Smith is a genius and you captured the essence of his playing well here. I think his vibrato is slightly more pronounced than what you are doing but I have to say, that sounded fucking awesome.

    • @StephLeGratteux
      @StephLeGratteux  6 років тому +1

      Thanks. I agree about his vibrato

    • @MrBuzzzzz
      @MrBuzzzzz 6 років тому

      Don't think that is any insult to you. It certainly is not. I am still trying ta nail down Gilmour's vibrato and after 20 years of trying, I still can not make it sound exactly like his. I think vibrato is the hardest thing to copy. Every person has their own vibrato and to steal another's is very difficult. Try the solo in "All Right Now" by The Free and try to get that damn vibrato. It's almost impossible.

    • @StephLeGratteux
      @StephLeGratteux  6 років тому

      No problem, I know it's not any kind of insult ;)

      @jesusguerra1093 6 років тому

      Dont worry about it mate, even jhonn petrucci said in a interview that he cant still nail or copy adrian smith's vibrato and it is said by a man who covered the whole number of the beast album.

    Great job Steph you really help me a lot ,im working on somewhere in time solo , i play 2,5 years the guitar and im self taught and im currently learning the somewhere in time solo.Pls correct me if im wrong but from what i saw in Smiths playing he does many repetitive licks and there are great exercises.Your tabs and videos especialy your 50 half speed helps a lot to see the picking things :) . But can you tell me what scales usually Smith uses to study? Thank you and again you help a lot

    • @StephLeGratteux
      @StephLeGratteux  7 років тому +2

      Thanks. That's true about repetitive licks, there is one lick like that most of the time in his solos, and sometimes you can find the smae lck in 2 different solos. About the scales, he usually mixes in minor pentatonic scale, blues sclae and aeolian mode. And sometimes he also likes the dominant phrygian mode

    one of my favorite maiden solos and ive tried many times to nail this one but when he starts alternating between the 11th and 12th fret my fingers just start giving out.

    • @StephLeGratteux
      @StephLeGratteux  6 років тому +1

      Stretching problem? I'm asking because I used the Les Paul which has a shorter scale length than my Charvel for instance, and it makes it a bit easier

    • @obrix66
      @obrix66 6 років тому +1

      @@StephLeGratteux now that I think about it I was using a carvin when I first tried it. Now I have an Ibanez and a strat which is longer scale length I believe. I have short fingers to which don't help. Lol

    • @caseyjohnson9390
      @caseyjohnson9390 5 років тому

      May I ask if you're releasing the 9th fret on the D before doing the 7-12 hammer? That helps make the stretch easier.
