    Man, when I watch these old videos from the early days it makes me realise how much Carl has improved his lessons over the years. Even back then they’re still better than most of the ones today. 😉

    how do you get that tone i am having a hard time on my amp

    • @karankyal694
      @karankyal694 4 роки тому +2

      for the intro tone use chorus effect and the correct amt of gain and reverb

    • @red.domino
      @red.domino 4 роки тому +3

      Try practising stretch scales and stretch chords and consider on buying a small scale guitar (i.e. a Les Paul or a SG which have 24,5 inches neck lenght) with a speedy neck (C shape 20mm thicknes and small nut width). Regarding the note you should note that Slash usually uses a medium-high distortion level (even though he cranks that poor Marshall to its maximum) and he pushes a lot mids through the EQ, while cutting treble and high. The the chourus fx is very subtle (low rate and tight width). Said that it also depends on the type of magnets your guitar has and your amp type (valve or transistor or digital).

    • @MrGunwitch
      @MrGunwitch 3 роки тому +4

      No that's incorrect. Slash said in interviews that he wrote the intro. It's got his signature sound all over it, and he plays the part live so there's little doubt there.

  • @rockandmetaljunkie
    @rockandmetaljunkie 4 роки тому +2

    Great lesson. All these years of listening to the intro of that studio version, have revealed something to me. I'm 100% sure the second time Slash plays that sequence (when the snare drum kicks in), he plays the F chord (standard tuning) slightly different. Maybe he's not arpeggiating, but playing the full chords, I'm not entirely sure. But if you listen very closely, you will notice a difference to the sound. Maybe Slash messed it up a little bit, who knows, all sorts of mishaps could happen when you play in the studio.

    I just listened to the original recording and Slash uses the other G chord that you play at 9:26 all through the intro. It sounds better and is easier to play. The D note on the B string should be in all 3 chords... G, C, and F. Your solo licks are great.
