    Hi everyone! I promise the next solo lesson will be much easier, but also coming from the '80s. Rock on! :)

    Modern music just doesn't not have this tasty solos.... The palm muting, pinch harmonics, the feel and the melody. It's all there.
    It's like a perfect circle drawn by hand.

    Freak!! You always pick such great songs and I love it. The only think I dont like is the fact that I THOUGHT I had this solo down pat until I saw this. You broke one off right here dude - sick. And thank u!

  • @elliottnunez1057
    @elliottnunez1057 ปีที่แล้ว

    Just found this!! This is definitely one of the best guitar teachers on the TH-cam. A lot of guitar teachers play the same licks over and over as if they are practicing while they attempt to teach. Pretty much all of them do this. This is an easier way to learn for an above average player and beginners alike. Definitely good teacher and fornat!!

    Mate - much respect. One of my fav solo's to listen to and play.
    I envy the strength of your pinky finger with those bends and wide vibratos. It makes your playing so fluid!
    I'm much more reliant on the other three fingers!

    • @PDXguitarfreak
      @PDXguitarfreak  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks! I forced myself to use my pinky from early on. That said, I find that do the three finger approach more and more these days when playing blues based stuff :)

    What i love about this solo is that is super legato friendly. Vivian is a great picker, but those that aren't great pickers ( like me); this is a good one to show off some skill if you can do legato and string skipping and arpeggios w some competence. Troy Stenina taught the legato versions of these fast parts, which u also included. Did vivian pick it all? Anyways, Excellent instruction vid...

There's stuff that human hands can learn naturally that leaves a lot to be desired to the ear, and then there's stuff that takes infinitely more effort and skill bc it's what sounds the best...and that's where Vivian was living already when he was 21.. just an unbelievable thing to me...
