I love how this video tells you witch fingers go on what string and on what fret unlike most videos where it just says like chords because I’m a beginner and this is a good video
Little known fact: Slash uses this intro as a warmup exercise. Axel thought it was pretty cool sounding and wanted it in the song itself.
Very known fact that literally everyone knows
@@democracydaily9149 I mean i didnt but whatever
@@democracydaily9149 I ain’t know that either
@@democracydaily9149 I didn’t know it so how about you stop being a dick
@@democracydaily9149 I did not know that either.
Watch guitar tutorials upside down. It becomes easier to view finger positioning since the view would be the way you would normally look down at a guitar👍👌
Peter Scalise I'm a lefty so doesn't really work for me :(
Ambarie you can play guitar and fret with your left hand even if you're a lefty. Just practice
+Zack 2.0 Yeah, a friend of mine does that. He has no problem playing that way. Also, didn't Mark Knopfler do that?
Zack 2.0 I actually have a left handed guitar ;)
No need for me. I'm a leftie player. Technically, this video is already mirrored for me! ;)
Justin. Brian from Sydney here. Your teaching style is amazing and you've brought from never having picked up a guitar in April this year to being able to play 10-12 songs end-to-end. Thank you so much. I've spent so much time watching your videos I feel like I know you so well. Thanks again and keep them coming.
Thx dude :) you been putting the hours in obviously. Congrats.
When I'm in the mood to learn something new, you're the first channel I go to. You give the most detailed, accurate, and easiest to understand instruction I've found.
Glad you enjoyed it. There are now 700+ song lessons plus a song request board here: www.justinguitar.com/songs

I give you a ton of credit for admitting that your earlier effort wasn't quite right, and then taking the time to do a very accurate version. The attention to detail is greatly appreciated!

Justin is known for his honesty. That's why we like him.
Wow the tone is identical to the recording!
Yeah scary close I think :)
I can't find the place on the website that shows the tone settings. Can you help please?
Matt x69x Yep the Les Paul obviously helps, just saying the tone is identical to the recording.
+JustinGuitar Songs what kinda pedal did you use man sounds great !!!
Yea, slash uses a gibson and justin also uses one.
Justin really knows how to teach... love how he breaks everything down so it's easy to learn
*Learn how to play Sweet Child O Mine in detail!* www.justinguitar.com/songs/guns-n-roses-sweet-child-o-mine-intro-chords-tabs-guitar-lesson-st-376
The tone of that guitar sounds amazing😍😰
you taught me everything i know justin , from my first chord to sweet child o mine- thats pretty epic ,thanks :)
i just got the justin guitar 4chords app for a bit of fun aswell - i was broke when i started out so youre honour system was a lifeline
Can't wait for the next parts. I will have achieved a life long goal when I can play this (including solos) from start to finish. Thank you and come do a workshop in Wellington NZ sometime! :)
Thanks for teaching me play the guitar!
Youre the best Justin!
Greets from Europe
Cheers!
Justin!! Perfect tone and playing mate.
I don't even play the guitar and I enjoyed this. You seem to have a really great tutorial style.
I use to play long ago, I watched your video today and you brought me back up to speed and some thanks brother!
How coincidental, I was listening to Appetite for Destruction on my way home just then and was thinking "I should really learn the right way to play this song" .. Thanks!
I greatly appreciate this learning experience. I love guns n roses and being able to play this song will make my family cry
Yaaaaayyy! Finally in way better quality. : )
Thanks Justin!
There are hundreds of Lesson videos and I certified Justin is the only that explained super clearly and now i can play this song! 😎 thanks !
Thanks for doing a HD version.
Hi Justin! I just want you to know that I have learned so much from your videos! MY brother gave me his old guitar a month or 2 ago and thanks to you I'm already doing really well on the beginner stage. Thank you so much!
By far my fav GnR song. The only one I really wanna get.
Thanks for the tutorial, Justin. Great, as per usual! I've never been a fan of GnR or Slash, although I guess it's much better to just play it if someone asks if I know how to play it rather than look like a goose when I say that I don't have a clue! For me, it's actually easier to stick to the alternate picking because that's the way I'm used to playing. However, it's very nice of you to study it closely enough to break it into up and down strokes based on what Slash does. Excellent job!!
Thanks Justin. How you can play and talk at the same time is awesome.Great tutorial and playing as usual.
You never want to be doing too much wonky bending
MJ Music you'll be ok if your knob is on 10 😁
Thank you for the tutorial. I was struggling quite a bit.
I have just bought a Stratocaster and haven’t really known where to start. This video has helped a lot. Thanks Justin🤘
Thanks so much for this amazing tutorial.
Wonderful piece of playing and very well explained, all salutes to Slash as well, thanks guys.
I remember your original video of this tutorial. Very first one I ever tried learning, even if it was on an acoustic guitar back in '08. In fact, I think the original video of this is the first video I ever watched of yours along with Stairway. My how time flies. Thank you for the tutorials through all these years!
thank u from Siberia:D
You're awesome guitar teacher. Positive atmosphere and good lessons. All is simple and clear.
I learnt to play this from the first lessons you did but always used the same fingering as you show in this new version as I personally found it more comfortable. I always thought I was doing it wrong but it was the only way I could play it!! Great lesson and now looking forward to the rest as I've since forgotten exactly how to play some of the other riffs. Cheers :)
Justin you're the best teacher out there. Period. Thank you so much for all the great and FUN lessons.
Down up down down up down up down works for me Justin.
Out of all the UA-cam guitar teachers you are one of the best I learned how to play house of the rising sun. Animals version you slow it down perfectly and don’t overload the learners mind. 👍
A beginner and been on this a few months. Getting the notes ringing into each other and hitting 125 BPM (i play it at 100 atm) is the hard bit for me.
yep
I love sweet child of mine ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
The Doors Robbie Krieger intro on Light my Fire is the best
Learned it and it only took 5 minutes🔥
My dad used to be able to do just the intro as a kid on electric guitar. As a 15 year old girl with some sort of guitar knowledge from school, I just wanna learn the intro to impress him lol
Oh my! I was doing alternate picking! Thank you for this 🤘🏼
Hey Justin! Gotta be "that guy " and point out you change the picking when you play it your way. You throw in one downstroke, rather than the ups that you say slash uses. That said, really looking forward to the videos! There's that one run he does, crazy ascending run that everyone gets wrong! Great channel, best of it's kind!!!
I just throw mistakes in sometime to test y'all ;) you won a banana! - and yes - Ihave figured the crazy ascending run!! :)
Hey Justin would you consider making a DVD for the training for this song. I'm a subscriber and have been watching and trying to learn this song but my internet is so crappy that it's buffering so much it's hard to learn with so many interruptions. Thanks John
The Les Paul really is the only guitar you can use for this song if you really wanna nail that neck pickup tone
why so?
Thanks...
Justin, I learned this song from you, like, 15 years ago. :-)
Great attention to detail..as always...nothing more beautiful than the sight & sound of a goldtop les paul
That gold top 😍😍😍😍
Excellent video. Worth noting the picking combination is different on the last 2 bars!
Oh Justin Thx so much for going out of your way to re do this one. I did master it the way you showed us the first time you posted it and yes I did find it very difficult alternating the strings. Thx also for letting us know the settings on the guitar. I also think this is if not the best guitar intro I've ever heard. cheer cobbler.😎
top lesson, looking forward to the rest. ...
Awesome lesson Justin...thank you so very much. Also, your tone was spot on. Excellent!
This is the song that made me want to play guitar !
Little wing for me :)
Jakob Björklund Also a great one !
By the way I never actually played Sweet Child of Mine . So I'll certainly be following this series.
In my case it started my singing lessons :)
Thanks Justin. Been trying to sort out that last little riff for a week. Logged on here and had an "oh yeah" moment. I love your lessons and your songbooks. Thank you for putting them all up here.
Thanks Justin, the outro part at the end is a little tricky to follow but I slowed the video play speed to 0.25 and managed to jot it down.
Thank you for your channel ✌️
now to practice
Amazing tutorial! I slow down Slash’s picking and I see it’s is down up up up up down up up not down up up up up down up down. Idk, if I am wrong or not. However, it works both!❤
FYI to play this in proper tuning without tuning the guitar, play a fret lower. So instead of first note being at fret 12, have it at fret 11, do the same with all the other notes. Second set can be played with the ring finger for first note instead of pointer. :p
Is it important to do the fingering exactly this way? I've learned the intro but using all four fingers (mainly cause when I first learned it I was even more of a guitar noob than I am now so my reach with my left hand fingers was rubbish 😅)
Bad ass!! Don't talk just let the guitar speak for u
Im 68 years of age and have just learned this riff for the first time - Thnx Justin. Now where can I get me some leather trousers?
This is it easiest song to learn how did you learn it after so many years 😂
@@dimitriosmalatches5522 Because there are other great songs aswell??
u can play the intro and most of the song in standsrd tuning its just different frets but nice job 👍
This helped thx 👍
T and j Games his lesson on the outro wasn’t.
Justin, you are a great teacher. Learn a lot from your tutorials. GOOD JOB MAN & KEEP IT UP !
My friend .really im learn hello from Monterrey México
DUDE this was beyond the most helpful lesson !!! thank you !!!!!
Great video Justin
I always start this on an up-pick. Whatever suits I guess.
Untuk kami , yg belajar music ini sangat membantu, kami trimakasih.
Thanks men, your explanation helped me a lot to play this riff. Cheers from Montreal, Canada.
I think it's awesome that Slash could play this *perfectly* when he was only 19 or whatever.
But then I think he didn't just play it at that age, he *wrote* it. How is that possible? It's not just how difficult it is, it's the musicality of it. At 19?!
My honest opinion is that he must be a genius. Or he had lessons.
He had lessons :) he was more around 21-22 tho at that time - and he said he was playing 12 hours a day (and his parents were around super famous musicians like Bowie or Harrison)
Justin, I think it makes much more sense to pick DUUD UDUD. Or even more efficient DUUD UDUU. Please try and let me know your thoughts
Fantastic! Hoping for a tutorial on the Stone Roses' 'Beautiful Thing' in the coming weeks. Cheers from Seoul
I like before I even see the video because I already know its gonna be great
Wow thanks a lot.long time ago I’m just waiting of this video.Very very nice tutorial.
Brilliant thanks once again Justin.
I was alternate picking this- the slash way is so much easier
great teaching and clear instructions...
Thanks for clarifying the intro! 💪😎🤘
thank you so much fo this lesson!!! cheers!!!
ahh Man, so nice ... thank you very much, I have been learning so much with your videos, they are really awesome!
Lovely !! You made me cover this intro
thank you!! really good tutorial
I always have a fun time with your videos,keep it up,brilliant.
Hey Justin, could you do a lesson of The Strange Song from the great Leonard Cohen. I really love the song, but the fingerpicking is something else :)
Thank you so much! I hope you do November rain one day
Playing bass made me really start to favor upstrokes in my picking. No idea why
Man… Every single video I’ve watched on this beginning riff, EVERYONE speeds right through the most complicated part! “12 14 15second string back 12 to 14(…)! My mom says I’m special and I need to have it slower! Not just a sentence of numbers! 😂 pleeeze! …Still get a thumbs up from me for being out there, doing what you do and not wearing a fedora. ;)
Lol
@@urabura8896 are you laughing at my retched “special” needs?! …My REEport trigger finger has been itching for some time… I’m not only special, I’m sensitive! ;)
XD
great lesson and great tone thank you justin!!! kemper !!!!!!!!!!! i wish i could have this tone with something on budget lol!
i learned how to play dont fear the reaper on guitar from watching you many moons ago
Just analysed my picking and its DDUD DUDU.
same for me.
my picking is always DUDUDUDUDUDUDUDU is this bad
No, not bad mate, I would say whatever is most comfortable and flows best for you
ok then haha
Ian Woolley that is how I pick it too. Basically move in the direction of the string change.
Finally...thanx!
Yesssssss!Thanks,Just!
Hi Justin are you going to do all the parts to this song?
yep, well, almost all, not every layer of rhythm parts.
I just started guitar
Don't apologize, there are many ways to always play a tune. Many artists play their own tunes different every time. You get it right way more than most
Justin, Is it wierd that 90% of the time when I practice, I only Downpick in the hopes I can someday beat James Hetfield as the king ofdownpicking.
GREAT job, Justin! =)
picking pattern: DUUUUDUD
might be worth mentioning that it is a Db-Powerchord played in the D-Shape out of CAGED. The Chord then shifts to Dsus4 and then Dsus4 turns to Gb. my2cts.
Thank you so much mate regulars acting proper
Tysm Texters
Thank ya so much dude Southerners
