Tom plays Guitar

[@TheBcoolGuy]

Wow! I don't have all the solo down yet, and I'm proud to say I had the main part of the song down already, but you taught me to play a guitar solo! I've never been able to play those despite me, what, 15-ish years of playing guitar.

[@TomDimanso]

Thanks for the comment, glad to help out! Rock on!

[@transformer889]

Tom, you are a great player, you are unpretentious making playing guitar so much fun and look easy, thanks

[@muskykingjoe]

A great classic and a great job of teaching it. I will be working on this one. Thanks.

[@markbjornholm5555]

Great job I haven’t got a chance yet but I will use this one the others I watched were so slow I was like crap but you did it at the right speed I should pick it up really quick thanks to you after 45 years of playing I finally decided time to learn it instead of improving it cause it is so distinct for the song so Thank you and great job!

[@TomDimanso]

Thanks for the comment

[@joes5150]

Awesome great tone and phrasing!

[@Doughandsuger]

Wow tom you are amazing. Thank you for posting.

[@TomDimanso]

There are a few places on the neck to play an E chord. You are correct there is one on the 1st & 2nd fret. The one I am playing my first finger is on E on the 7th fret/ 5th string. MY 3rd finger is barring the 9th fret/ 4,3,2 string. This is an E chord following the root of the chord E on the 5th string. All you need to play on this part of the song is the 5th & 4th strings of the chord to get that sound. Hope that helps.

[@k.t.robinson6339]

great video, i'm sorta a beginner, so what effects, & what's you're amp set at? thanks.

[@shoppersplace]

at :04 some don't hear that 9th fret d string played twice. Just one hit after the 7th A then down to the 10-9 b string.

[@TomDimanso]

Thanks, no plans on putting up the rest of the solo. Theres not much left to it. Just rock it out, it plays out some of the same riffs again. Rock on !

During the chorus, Jeff Carlisi explained that there is more of a loose chord playing different than the verse. Check his videos out.

[@TomDimanso]

Thanks for the compliment

[@justatool]

Great job, but help me out on something at 2:35 you say e chord, I thought e chord was played on the 1-3 fret, looks like your on the 8&9 th fret, also e chord is 3rd,5th and 4th string. are you omiting the 1st finger? wouldn't it be called somthing different? e minor or???
You do rock! I gotta give you that!

[@nancyfaubel239]
