Don't Tell Me You Love Me Solo Lesson

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 ส.ค. 2012
- This is for educational purposes to demonstrate how to play Night Ranger's "Don't tell Me You love Me" guitar solo. Please purchase Night Ranger music from iTunes and other retailers.
Please note that I am playing the Watson arpeggios WRONG. I should be alternating the riff between the 1st and 2nd string with the first finger on each phrase. The last arpeggio the A# on the B string should be a B (12th fret). Thanks Bakerman for pointing this out :)

Holy cow- you NAILED the feeling to each solo.
That is so awesome. One of my most favorite tunes. Excellent solo.
Miss these videos. You're a natural Mark. So glad you're still rocking!
Mark in Ohio
Appreciate you always finding time for lessons Mark...Cheers
Killer lesson, I had to learn quick for a gig. Just awesome to get me through it quickly, thanks so much!!!
Daaamn why am I only seeing this now?? Great job, killer solo 🤘
Great solo to play. Technical, fun and quick fingers are needed. You nailed it
Awesome tutorial on one of the best leads EVER!
Ok so a few comments: 1) You are insane for even attempting this solo, 2) You are ridiculously talented to be able to play this solo so well, 3) You make everything look SO EASY, 4) Your lessons are very good and easy to follow, gives me hope that some day I might be able to play even a part of this solo (I would be happy to get through just the first part) 5) been following you here for a couple of years now, and you are hands-down one of the best out there (on here?) and always fun to watch!
That was absolutely AWESOME!
Absolutely Awesome playing and instruction! Kudos!
Great job .. You nail those solos, which are the parts I struggle with most .. Rock On dude.. \m/
Super performance, super tome & super instruction!
Thanks Mark, Wanted to see this for a while!!
Damn you Mark Day! That was awesome. I’ll be here all week trying to do that.. lol.
I know, right?
Except it's gonna take me months, I suspect. Don't complain about a week. LOL
NICE playing, dude. Thanks for the lesson. Night Ranger rules.
a great solo to learn. thanks for your time and effort
Excellent Mark - Thank you for sharing !
Mark, I just saw this video for the first time. I didn't realize you did a lesson on this. One quick thing. Jeff is actually alternating strings on the first finger position every time, except the scale lick at the end of the first two patterns. He is going, E9 B7 E5 then E9 B7 B5 repeat twice then the scale pattern on E7 B9 B7 B5 (string/fret number). As he goes through each pattern, he continues the alternating his first finger on whichever fret it is on. 1st time on E string, 2nd time on B string, 3rd time on E string, 4th time on B string, etc. Thanks again for helping me with my AX8 not connecting to my computer. It was my old computer that was the issue, not my AX8.
Incredible maestro. Thank you
Thanks for the lesson. I've been wanting to play that right for years (longer than I'd like to admit). Especially thanks for moving it along. Nothing annoys me more than someone breaking down a really difficult solo at a speed for people who learned how to play yesterday. I had it down after 2 or 3 times each section.
Outstanding! Where was TH-cam when I was learning to play?
you always choose GREAT songs!!! thumb up!
u nailed it Mark, as usual
What a great lesson! Thank you so much!
Excellent job.
Jesus Christ that was flawless
Awesome thanks I was just messing around with this song and it tripped me out to see this.
awesome. great playing
well. You sir are BADASS!!!!! I'm trying to get in a cover band and want to do this song........ but that solo was intimidating as hell. great job! It's never a good sign when learning a cover song and hearing/seeing the part your first reaction is Oh F NO! You explained it very well. I think I can do it with some practice.
Thanks for the kind words, much appreciated!!
Dude you are amazing.
Excellent!!!
Nailed it ! Thanks Mark for all the clips and lessons !
Oh godddammmit that is so fucking badass !!!!!! One of the greatest all time solos...i thought i play it good but Mark takes the cake
Great teaching video 5 stars !
yes that sounds great thanks again
Yo dude.Awesome these last few years watching(learning,spending money afterwards LOL)your vids bro!I don't know if you've answered this question 1 or 1000 times but I am stunned at the lifespan and vibrance of these new Cobalt strings.I have never kept any strings on for as long as these.I loved Rotosounds,now these Cobalts.Just wondering...if you have time.Truly love your stuff mark,really.P.S.I still love my Ultra too,that you made me buy!!!Peace and God Bless us and John Suhr ha ha
Really good
Most people call the 1st string the "top" string, not the bottom string. You probably knew that already but for an instructional vid let's all be on the same page. :)
Thanks for the lesson. Good job.
I got the left hand part, but the right hand technique is what Im trying to figure out on Jeff's solo.. It looks like at the beginning of the solo, during the 5, 7 and 9th fret on the high E and B string, you alternate which direction you pick the high E string. Sometimes from the bottom outer edge of the E string, others times from the B string side.
awesome video!!
Thanks 4 the lesson :-)
Thank you so much..What do you use a branded guitar strings-effect ?
The part on 7:11 is not correct. There are 2 notes it goes to in each pattern that you’re not playing. You’ve almost got it. You’re correct that it’s not tapped but you’re missing those 2 notes each time
Daaaaayyyyyyyaaaaaammmmm
Rock out, brutha!
Nice 👍
なかなかやりますなー！！
素晴らしい！！
This isn't the licks Jeff plays in the opening of his solo. There is video of Jeff and Joel showing the actual patterns used. This is the pattern in the tab book but it isn't accurate.
Yes, he alternates between the A on the first and the E on the second string. Also, I don't think that he changes positions on the second part. It can all be reached from the F#m box.
You are very skilled no doubt! Your speed in incredible. Thank you. I was able to figure everything out from YOUR video, though. Keep Rockin'!

I have always had this buzz. It seems to come from my computer. Way worse if my HP printer is on, even if it is OFF I have to pull the power cord from the back of the HP printer
Good job Mark
I resonantly bought some AX8 patches from Moke I also got your EVH one .
Do you have the one available for this song?
Thanks
Frank
Great tutorial as this was awesome. Nice tone too. What are you playing through as see your Suhr guitar. Thx
AxeFx
What amp model? Great tone
Is that the buzzing I've heard people complaining about from v7? or is that something else entirely? It's subtle and didn't distract from the video-- i just couldn't help but ask. Great tutorial Mark.
Great lesson! Always loved the solos in this song. How do you get your tone?
Thanks, the Jeff Watson part is wrong :) AxeFx is the tone :)
Nailed it
So he's letting his trem bar bounce back? I can't get that sound at all not even close
just have a question, how do you record ur sound in your music videos? its very crisp.like me, wen i do cover songs i just use the camera to record both audio and video.wats the best way to do it? thanks. i want that "mic-the-amp" thing but i dont know how to do it...
Stan Laurel is alive and kicking ass.
Lol
Lol

HAHAHAHA.
...but yes...yes he is
Nice video a d nice playing. It's a very difficult solo, especially Jeff's part. I only watched the part that covers the first half of Jeff's solo. Good stuff, but you didn't quite get it. You are correct that he picks it, not tap, but Jeff plays it as a sweep picking lick that starts on an up stroke. Jeff has this very unique right hand technique where he starts all of his runs with an up stroke instead of a down stroke, and holds the pick with rotated with the opposite edge hitting the strings than is typical. You can play the lick with a normal pick angle, but you have to sweep it with up strokes if you want it to sound like Jeff. Also you got some notes wrong. The lick cycles between two 3 note forms: the one you show, C# F# A, and then C# F# E over the F#m chord. The first two notes are played with an upstroke sweep, the third note played withe a down stroke. As you say, it ends with a 4 note, alternate picked, descending B G# F# E though again the first note, the B, is played with an upstroke. Note how the lick adds up to 16 total notes, with 4 sets of sweep triplets and the 4 note run. Also note that Joel H., an incredible guitar player who played in Night Ranger for a number of years doing Watson's parts, played the right notes but played the whole thing with alternate picking starting with a down stroke. Insanely difficult, but didn't sound right. Too staccato.
Thanks. I hope it will be marketed soon. For now I enjoy with my Hell Baby. You know it. 'It's a bit' old and out of production.
I congratulate you because 'a good craft pick up is always better than a standard even if it was a Suhr D.A.
Hm, que belo solo.
Niiiiiiiiiiiiice Jøb Dude ! ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
At the beginning, you kinda look like Eric Clapton while your playing with the song. Looking for your attempt at the Watson 10 finger hammer on thing. That on here?
I was excited till I found out you are tuned down a half of step.... why???? The recording is standard...
Last 2 pos. For Watson arp are incorrect.
Very cool. You nailed it.
May I ask if your Suhr is using the gotoh floyd? Love those things.
Yes it had a Gotoh.
@@samhillband Did you change it? May I ask?
@@hoosierdaddy2308 I stupidly sold the guitar
@@samhillband Oh. I've had that happen to me more than once. I feel your pain.
@Eric Tasaico They are great.
Amazing!!!! (Y)
Jebus Mark, you almost make that look easy. I think I could learn to play the licks, my problem will be remembering all those details.
Thanks so much for doing this. This is my favorite song of the era precisely because of these solos. I gotta wonder though, how the hell do people sit around and figure out that kind of complexity against the chords. I can barely keep track of my blues scale. LOL
Hey I'm in So Cal, too. You give lessons? I could use a couple, I think, even though I'm an old man who's been playing forever. I think I developed some bad playing habits along the way. This could be my last chance to break them.
Two last things. You are a freaking' awesome player, so I can't believe there are only 102 comments here.
Lastly, a small technical thing. When you were playing up high the sound quality went to crap, and it sounds like your pic was hitting the pick up or something. Very weird. It's a shame it mars your great video, but I can still hear the notes so I guess it doesn't matter much.
Be well. Hope youvre staying healthy and doing well, as I noticed this was was 2012, esp. in the craziness of 2020, eh? (Keepvid's dead, btw. There are other down-loaders that work.) Hope you see this. LOL If you respond, I should get a notification.- Jstn
I'm actually living back in Canada. I'm not giving Skype lessons at the moment. Still putting out new videos and playing in a Journey tribute and working for Fractal Audio. Btw I have a better version of this and more recent that I actually play it correctly lol.
i know this is old, but you've got a GREAT rock face bro!! I live in Ventura, where abouts are you? Could use a good jam partner!!!
Grundman, I'm in Ventura. Marshall, flying V Schenker fanatic
Currently there isn't info about your new pick up in MCP site's.
So now I try to guess and tell me if I'm wrong.
I think It's an Alnico 2 , with about 14 k/ohm.that is the same of EVH Frankstein which is very similar.
whats string gauge used?
I had no idea Eric Clapton can shred!
dude you are awesome but how baked are you?! haha! just ordered the axe fx2 today can't wait!
Axe-Fx on this video?
he's baked, I am baked...please repeat the question.
you should check out Mark Pobanz doing this song, he has a backtrack cover.... check it out!!
oh that Suhr ... drool ...
I can only do this on my air guitar.
please play NR four in the mouring vid
Gramps has still got it
Ha, wanna race? Lol.
You’re way better than me I’ve only been playing a year
nice cat
うまい！
Why are you tuned down 1/2 step when the original recording is in standard?
Because I have Parkinson's and 1/2 step down is a little easier to play.
Has anyone ever told you that you look exactly like Brad Gillis?
Lol, a few times.
Mark Day Guitar Hopefully you can do “A Man I’ll Never Be” or “Peace of Mind”, would love to see you nail those!
Im sorry to say but, this lesson is close but not all together correct. Take the lesso from Joel Hoekstra. He actually plays for Night Ranger. Good attempt though.
This was put in the description a long long time ago: Please note that I am playing the Watson arpeggios WRONG. I should be alternating the riff between the 1st and 2nd string with the first finger on each phrase. The last arpeggio the A# on the B string should be a B (12th fret). Thanks Bakerman for pointing this out :)
Jeff's part, I'm wrong.
why are you tuned down????
I have Parkinson's and it makes the strings a little slinkier and easier to play.
Jeff Watson pattern is wrong and too easy. Correct way is top string (high E): 9th, B string 7th , E string 5th-9th, B string 7th-5th. Thats the repeated pattern (you have the last 4 notes correct). Playing it the correct way is harder than triplets
I already posted this in my description a few years ago.
Mark Day Guitar my bad. Just goes to show people don’t read descriptions. By now I am sure you can play the Watson part? Why not re make the vid? Anyways my bad!
th-cam.com/video/VeiaOQEaLIs/w-d-xo.html
Should have asked if you have ever even tried them first,da!
You resemble Brad somewhat.
I hope you realize that youknow more about the structure of these songs than the people that wrote them!! Alot of times the STUDIO is a (1) shot deal and these solos were written from the heart, not as structured as would like to think. My hat is off you !!
30 jealous guitar players
WTF why you going to give a lesson requiring 90+% of people to retune their guitars...smh
why are u in the wrong tuning dude smh make this so much harder and annoying
