In The Style of GEORGE LYNCH | How To Play Lynch Mob's 'Street Fighting Man'

[@mack7235]

I think a “in the style of Reb Beach” would be awesome

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Yes 😎🤟.

[@1970borntorun]

Yes! And Randy Rhoads, or Michael Schenker too ! ♫

[@MercutioUK2006]

George really does tick every single box as a guitarist - can shred, play slower/more melodically, writes great riffs, employs unusual tonalities and always has a killer tone.
Nice lesson :)

[@robertcrockett4104]

Steve Stevens doesn't?

[@MercutioUK2006]

@@robertcrockett4104 I didn't make any comments about Steve - as the video is about George and opinions are always subjective.

[@EugeValovirta230V]

🤟👌 Thanks!

[@ingve77]

Amazing. The thing about George is even he only plays "in the style of" George Lynch. Never heard him replicate any solo that was recorded on an album, he just seems to go for broke every time, and see where he lands.

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Thanks! Indeed 😎.

[@eduardosci1909]

Exactly!

[@VaiSolo]

F yeah! Nailed it as always, Euge! I’ve been waiting for this one for a while. From his killer tone to his Gothic Octave, flat fifths and the attitude he brought to every note he played, 80s and 90s Lynch was a legend!

[@torr8590]

The great Steve Vai once referred to George’s playing as “Pure sex!” High praise indeed!

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Thanks!

[@tyrone9839]

Gothic octave. th-cam.com/video/1Fkr3D6O-ss/w-d-xo.html

[@badmacbassandbass8118]

TH-cam needs to add a fuck yeah button for this video! Well done!!!!!

[@EugeValovirta230V]

😊🤟. Thanks!

[@rickfennell7849]

Hell yeah brother. That was smokin' !!!!! 🤟🤟🤟🍻🍻

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Glad to hear! Thanks!

[@jayteesgear]

Tech’d for George one weekend in 2009 he DOES play songs different every nite. You rocked this song Euge 🤟🏻😎

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Cool! Thanks!

[@B2Rockin]

That tone though … 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@EugeValovirta230V]

😎🤟

[@michaelcook8306]

My favorite guitar player since I was 16. Yes, im an 80s metal head. Great job really kick ass. Been a drummer and I can kill this song by wild Mick Brown.

[@EugeValovirta230V]

One of your best sounds Euge!

[@EugeValovirta230V]

[@johnpierson8398]

The Sound you are getting in this video is really, really good! Bass, Drums & Guitar sound great! Artist, producer, engineer, mixer, video editor, etc. Your guitar playing here is mind-blowing!

[@EugeValovirta230V]

[@philzouris]

Nice job Euge. You definitely nail the Lynch style of playing.

Thanks!

[@kazabubu10]

Nice vid Euge!! 80s...nice times with bad hairs...:P...a very interesting guitarist to make an "in the style of" is Larry LaLonde of Primus....very unique style...:)

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Thanks! Yes he is 😎

[@johnnyromero3336]

Yes! George Lynch ,One of my Absolute Favorite Guitar Players! Nice tone and Excellent playing as usual! Good job and choice of songs my friend!

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Thanks man!

[@Joey.Darkwoods-Studio]

Damn man... is there any style you cannot play and kill it each time!! lol Great Job Euge! You're an inspiartion man... Part of my top two youtubers, Jason Franhouser being the other!

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Thanks man! Glad to hear! Yeah he is really good 🤟.

[@jeffallen3382]

What I like the best about Wicked Sensation is that the songs still hold themselves to today's music.
George really knocked it out of the park with this one.

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Indeed 👌.

[@seanwynkoop474]

I would say THIS IS A BETTER than the track on the album. You have passed what George did at the time... AWESOME just AWESOME PLAYING

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Oh I don’t know about that but thanks man! I’ll take it 🙏😎.

[@Serpent54321]

Great vid Euge! Absolutely! It’s probably already in the comments, but, along with George, my other 2 shredder faves are Zakk & Warren. Could not get enough how-to’s from those top 80’s-90’s guys!🎉🎸🤘🏻

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Thanks!

[@btu45nh]

Great vid Euge I always liked George's playing and yours as well. Geroge always had these amazing hooks and chops very differant and personal kinda trade mark. Thanks agian Euge stay healthy and safe bro!😎🎸♨️👍

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Thanks man and likewise!

[@damonsdeliberatedetour492]

The tone is off the hook!! Great job on covering George

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Thanks!

[@craigcox1309]

At first I thought you were using that "Mr Scary Arcane" pickup, your tone was very close to George’s. Great playing

[@genelynch3235]

Nice!!! Like a Boss!!! How about Vivian Campbell or Mick Mars?

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Thanks! Who knows. Maybe some day 😎👌.

[@verruckterwissenschaftler]

Oh Yeah baby, love your hat too!

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Thanks! 🕺😎

[@steveo4253]

Have been a Lynch fan since 87 ! Also the year I started playing guitar, still playing everyday ! I've recently become a Euge fan since discovering this channel ! Lol I have that magazine.

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Thanks man! Really glad to hear!

[@prosatanos1991]

Euge, out of all the youtubers I've seen in my life, you are the only one I have my notifications enabled for, and I discovered you a month ago.
I greatly appreciate your genuine will to help people sound and play better.
After years of procrastinating, watching your content has finally helped me pull through the difficulties of learning some essential things I missed, like scales.
Thank you for the support I never had when learning to play the guitar.
Never stop playing!

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Oh thanks man! I’m really glad to hear that! Much appreciated 🙏.

[@guitarobot]

Awesome Interpretation . Loved your version.

[@EugeValovirta230V]

You have the best rock sound on youtube. No matter what you are playing your sound is just killer. And your playing is fricking killer also!!

Damn that was clean! Excellent job as always.

Glad to hear! Thanks!

[@OgamiItto70]

Right on. I've been wondering if and when we might see a video on George Lynch-style stuff from you.
To me this song is a reworking of _Mr. Scary._ Like the song _Wicked Sensation_ sounds like a reworking of _(Never) Unchain The Night._
When I (try to) improvise something "in the style of" George Lynch, I throw in notes that would be played in blues solos over a dominant 7th-style progression. The Maj3rd, the Maj7th, the "Dorian" Maj6th. These are all notes that you would play over a standard 12-bar blues progression with those dominant 7th chords that have a major 3rd in them and a minor 7th, sliding back and forth between major and minor pentatonic (plus the "blue note" flatted 5th) but when you play them over a straight minor progression they sound "outside." For extra "Georgeness," put a pinch harmonic and a big, wide vibrato on those "outside" notes. Use the whammy bar, if necessary. That 300 to 450 millisecond delay that George uses really helps those notes to hang in the air even after you've moved on. (Using those major/minor blues notes over minor chords also seems to be a favorite tactic of Warren De Martini. I think he and George might've stolen it from Tony Iommi.)
Some of this stuff is the kind of thing where if you do it once it sounds like you made a mistake; if you do it more than once, with attitude, it sounds like you just might be some kind of genius.
Anyway, great playing and you did really good with the tone, too. Which is not that easy and a big part of the Lynch style.

[@EugeValovirta230V]

👌🤟. Thanks man!

[@satchrules101]

Gold! Thanks bro , love ur channel . more song break downs!

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Thanks!

Ridiculously awesome Euge🤘🤘🤘 Think l remember him saying in an interview that he doesn't know any theory - blows my mind how that's possible!

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Thanks! Maybe he was exaggerating a bit but who knows 😎.

[@rhkendall]

outstanding

[@EugeValovirta230V]

You got the tone and the chops.. like always.

Chuffing excellent Euge. Some phenomenal phrases you threw in there too .Cool guitar - is that a Mr Scary p'up in it .?

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Thanks! It’s EMG 81; a classic that always works 😎.

An extended ‘in the style of Euge Valovirta’ would be fun. 👍🏼

[@EugeValovirta230V]

😎🤟. That’s someone else to do 😊.

Great job Euge, George has always been a Marshall player just like you, no matter what amp he "endorsed "

Great deep dive Euge, super sick playing. Think it would have been a bit better without the emg. a passive pickup addition. but great video Sir

Great playing! I'd love to see you break down Billy Duffy's tones from The Cult. In my opinion, he's vastly overlooked as an influencial guitarist.

You remind me of Johan Segeborn. You Swedes are excellent at explaining and demoing too😄

[@EugeValovirta230V]

I’m Finnish but Swede’s are pretty good too 😎.

[@LorenzoBindoni]

hello Euge, as always great video! could you make a video about Warren DeMartini, the iconic RATT guitarist of the 1980s. 🤟

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Thanks! On my to do - list 👌🤟.

[@donlynch8285]

Great video. Can you do one for the Under Lock and Key tone as well?? That's my favorite tone of all time along with Ratt's invasion tone

[@TomekGrzyb82]

Great vid. Thank you so much!!!!

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Thanks man!

That was great! Thanks!! Have you done an, "In the style of" Jake E Lee?

[@HiredGoonage]

remember that time in 1998 when George choked out Don Dokken. LOL. After House of Blues gig in Myrtle Beach, Donny went to the fridge to get some orange juice. George came up behind him and choked him. George's son had to pull him off. True story.

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Damn 😎.

[@zlutz814]

Great pick! If only George’s tone was like that..

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Thanks!

[@tomigp]

Man, I just watched the original several times.
Of course, George is a superb guitar player and a living legend, but I like your version of street fighting man more than the original.
Spec. your sound is cooler ;-). 🤠💪

Oh wow! Thanks! 🙏☺️

In the style of Michael Schenker 🙏🏼

[@EugeValovirta230V]

[@altag1]

Great content & tone.! you mentioned mic'ing your cab with a 57.. What is that black square on lower left bottom of cab? does it somehow hold the 57?

[@jamesryder9158]

Please do a lynchmob wicked sensation Kemper pack, you really nailed the tone!

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Thanks! I have no idea about those 😎.

[@jbusk6298]

Can you do a in the style of mick mars? He is so underrated and has such a great sound

[@phillamoore157]

Whatever you've done to your tone, it's the best I've heard it, Euge. It's more biting, and articulate...like you dialed back the gain a bit?? *DON'T CHANGE A THING!*...LOL 👌

[@EugeValovirta230V]

😎🤟

[@jesseparrish9198]

Funny how George had a signature Randall amp and he never used them. Every time I've seen George when he was with Randall those amps were never on. He had a marshall stack behind them.

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Hard to beat the good old workhorses 😎💪.

[@craigcampbell6690]

Great Video...You Rock...The Tone was Perfect 😎 Criss Oliva from Savatage played some Awesome Guitar., Like You...Sux he was killed by a Drunk Driver, only 30 years old😪Hall of the Mountain King, Kix Butt 😎 Maybe you could do something in the Style of Criss Oliva..The Price you Pay , is Kewl ,Aswell... Savatage 1987 🙂

Killer vid! Do you have a Backing track you can share?

Thanks! I made that for myself and already got a copyright claim but I was able to settle that out so I keep it to myself to respect the immaterial rights of the songwriters. Hope you understand 🙏.

[@markhopper8037]

No worries!!!

[@honigdachs.]

Euge, you still haven't put a pickup in that cavity. I would understand it if you were using it as an ash tray, but it doesn't look like it.

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Nope 😎. It works just fine with one 👌.

[@lemmy8ob]

GL is the sh*t & responsible for the inception of ESP as an instrument company....prior to the video of: "in My Dreams," they were just a parts company & the prez Matt Masciandaro was his guitar tech...awesome video, thanks...gotta go shred on my kamikaze 1 now....
