This solo is on the list of top 5 things make me wanna play. Blows me away I could play this along with the record once upon a time. The speed of that ending is just no joke.
I've been playing like 25 years, and usually I can play just about anything I want to - aside you know from crazy Yngwie and Petrucci stuff ofc. But that pentatonic shredding part you're talking about at the end I literally had to develop that technique for several months before I could sound anything like that at the same speed! Totally worth it!
god bless you for being such a patient man. if you have children, they will love their dad. we are your kids and we appreciate what your doing for us. this will probably take me months to learn, but its worth it. god bless you, and thank you from canada!
wanted to learn this solo ever since i started playing guitar and after two whole years i finally learnt this solo and also found out about you in the process will definetly be back here to learn more solos from you, much love friend.
Wow! First time I’ve seen one of your videos, but within the first couple minutes I realized your method of instruction is exactly what I’ve been looking for. I like how things move along quickly. I think when other folks teach songs and solos they may forget that we have the ability to pause, skip back, and do slow-motion, so they spend so much time explaining minor details that I lose interest quickly. I realize we can skip forward also, but that gets to be a pain since you don’t know how long they’ll be talking about what you’re trying to skip, and you end up just going back and forth. In my opinion, if you are up to the challenge of learning solos like this one, you probably don’t need extended explanations on things like how to tune the guitar and basic chord shapes. The camera angle is perfect to see exactly what you’re doing, and the clear and concise explanations of what is happening makes it easy to follow. Plus I knew when you said “slidey phrase” that you were speaking in terms I can relate to. I feel like it does nothing to encourage the kids trying to use TH-cam to learn how to play an instrument when some of these guys just use their “instructional” videos as a platform to show off and talk in all the super-technical music theory terms they know. Keep up the great work! Can’t wait to check out more of your videos!
As always AMAZING playing amd spot on tone as well Chris! Along with Carl Brown , Ben Eller , Marty Shwartz your channel is one of the best for most accuracy for how to play technical passages
Great vids! Love your teaching style. A lot of guys will show how to play, but not talk through the bends, positioning and such. Very super helpful to talk through the stuff. I don't have to go back, rewind, and put my face an inch from the screen trying to see exactly what is being fretted.
+Wooblidoo It would also be awesome if you put a difficulty scale on some of these. You make Megadeth solos look easy and sometimes it's hard to tell if trying to learn the solo is worth the effort. Cheers
YOU are no doubt the best soloist instructor on YT. Something I have noticed my friend. That GNR banner behind you can make it appear that you have giant ears. If you watch, you should see what I mean. LOL Love your work !!
Just discovered your channel Chris! Fierce playing, great instruction and the chance to re-live my teens learning my favourite solos! Cheers man! Keep up the good work!!
@@chriszoupa7898 yes your lessons are 👍 . One question, on those bend and release licks, especially on the g and b strings, how do you keep the string below your bend quiet on the release/ pull off? I know people say you gotta work on using both hands for muting the string below but on fast licks, its super difficult and that advice is too generic. Can you give some specific advice on how to work on that?
Chris you are the man! Phenomenal playing! Love these video and love how you break down all the classic solos section by section and make them so easy to learn. One suggestion, if possible, might be to break up the video where the tablature sections start and mark those with a timestamp underneath the video! Either way I'm definitely a huge fan and will support you and your future projects as much as possible!
Thanks for this, very clear lesson and very well explained. That transition to the last two legato positions gets me, but I'm going to practice it until I bleed !
You are amazing, Chris. I started playing a month ago and I learned the solo to You Shook Me All Night Long with your video. It was extremely gratifying, thank you, you're a great teacher! (Also you did an *amazing* job on the Painkiller solo and I was wondering if you could do Freewheel Burning! No worries if you've got other stuff on your mind, cheers!)
I love this guitar! I do not know if you remember, but I asked you about it and your opinion helped me buy her decision. Today I have one and also recommend!
I like the hair cut man. I appreciate your videos. Even if it's songs I don't care to learn I stop to watch anyway. Also I would love to hear your input on positive grids bias.
I can play the bit at 9m21s exactly along at slow speeds, and also play it a lot faster, but I'll be *damned* if I can do it along with the full-speed play in the intro at 0m57s. Even at 50% I can't match the notes and I'm legitimately wondering if the two plays are the same. Oh well. Setting it down for a bit. The video definitely got me through everything but that!
Chris Zoupa I don’t have a band mate I’m just a novice bedroom player at best but hopefully one day I’ll be good enough to atleast play in a cover band 🤘
Once again Chris, AWESOME. I started playing last year and I've come along way so far. I really enjoy your attitude and knowledge you display in your tutorials. Give me some insight on your artillery (PRS Guitars). I've collected both a couple electric guitars and a couple acoustics. I have a Blackstar amp but no guitar effect equipment, what do you suggest as far as effects. Thanks and solo on...
Hi Chris i have a little different question. I' m playing with an s540 ibanez with a really comfortable neck, BUT I'm looking from a quite different style of guitar. I'm looking for a PRS SE custom 24. How could you describe instrument's neck profile, I'm talking about the wide thin version. Is it a little bit thinner than modern C. And finally what about instrument's frets (jumbo-medium jumbo) and fretboard radius (is it at least 12) ? Thank you and keep up the good work Cheers Panagiotis (greek - difficult - name)

But that pentatonic shredding part you're talking about at the end I literally had to develop that technique for several months before I could sound anything like that at the same speed!
Totally worth it!
Never before had I ever had to think about pick slanting and actually learning the pentatonic shape lol
@@8KilgoreTrout4Did you pick all the 13-10 bits or use pull offs? Been obsessed with that for several years!
MOST UNDERRATED GUITAR TEACHER AND PLAYER ON TH-cam, PERFECT TONE AND LESSONS EVERY VIDEO!
You ain't lying. The way it's broken down, it's like going over to your buddy's house and learning it. SOLD! I'm subscribing.
His teachings are so great ! Specially solos his floods breakdown video is the greatest lesson on YT in my opinion!
He does not compare, Chris is THE guitar teacher man. So damn good
Yes! My favourite Zakk Wylde Zolo!
One of my favorite solos and this is definitely the best lesson I’ve seen for it!
Damn, this guy is not even trying to be fast. It's like he still has some room for doing it faster. Insane!!! Keep on rocking Sir!
god bless you for being such a patient man. if you have children, they will love their dad. we are your kids and we appreciate what your doing for us. this will probably take me months to learn, but its worth it. god bless you, and thank you from canada!

Thank you for all you do. There’s you and a few others that made me a much better player . Been chasing this solo for a long time. Got it finally
Ive been giving guitar lesson for 20 years and let me tell you...you're great ...nice learning speed ...you show the solo in the way tha we can learn
You have a video for every solo I've wanted to learn.

that "crazy bit" at 9:20 is killing meeeee!!!
As always AMAZING playing amd spot on tone as well Chris! Along with Carl Brown , Ben Eller , Marty Shwartz your channel is one of the best for most accuracy for how to play technical passages
Uncle Ben will always be the best, in my opinion
Hey Chris thanks for this lesson and thinking of you and yours on this father's day. Much love.
Phrasing is everything in that solo, you nailed it Cheers
Great vids! Love your teaching style. A lot of guys will show how to play, but not talk through the bends, positioning and such. Very super helpful to talk through the stuff. I don't have to go back, rewind, and put my face an inch from the screen trying to see exactly what is being fretted.
Favorite solo of all time. Thanks Chris!
+Wooblidoo It would also be awesome if you put a difficulty scale on some of these. You make Megadeth solos look easy and sometimes it's hard to tell if trying to learn the solo is worth the effort. Cheers
Even with my laptop's speakers, your tone sounds amazing man! Great playing.
Onur Alakus cuz it's a prs lol

YOU are no doubt the best soloist instructor on YT. Something I have noticed my friend. That GNR banner behind you can make it appear that you have giant ears. If you watch, you should see what I mean. LOL Love your work !!
Thank you so much for taking the time to break this down. This is incredible. THANK YOU CHRIS!
That was helpful! This is a tough one.. the last bit
Have been meaning to learn this for ages- no more excuses! Thanks for the work you put in on these lessons, they're excellent.
@cfh media nice playing, you got the final phrase down better than I ever did!

This sounds just like the recording amazing playing 🔥🤘🏾
Chris , please, make a Savatage - "Hall of the mountain king" video lesson.

+Michael Ershov I'll second that and really anything up to Edge of Thorns. Criss Oliva kicks serious ass!
+Shane M ok, guys. I think that we must together beg Chris for make some Savatage video lesson
+Michael Ershov The Damien guitar solo is also awesome. Savatage is a wicked band!
I would watch this! Savatage was one he'll of a band. The solo off of Legions is on of my favorites too.
Really great Chris! I’ve been learning from you for a while. You break things down wonderfully.
Wow nailed the tone man!
I like the speed of your tutorials.

I love this guitar! I do not know if you remember, but I asked you about it and your opinion helped me buy her decision. Today I have one and also recommend!
I like the hair cut man. I appreciate your videos. Even if it's songs I don't care to learn I stop to watch anyway. Also I would love to hear your input on positive grids bias.
Great lesson! thank you. It helped that you repeated the sections alot. Subscribed.

Thank you man! One of my fav solos
it took me a minute to realize you were playing with no guitar pick ...great job!
I know you already know.. But Chris, your awesome on guitar
Awesome work Chris - one of my all time fave solo's
I can play the bit at 9m21s exactly along at slow speeds, and also play it a lot faster, but I'll be *damned* if I can do it along with the full-speed play in the intro at 0m57s.

You are brilliant! Love your videos!!!
Chris you are a fkn legend mate thank you so much . This will take me awhile to get down but this lesson will make it so much easier
You rock dude. Can you link me any vids of sound cloud or Spotify of your band or music?
Chris Zoupa I don’t have a band mate I’m just a novice bedroom player at best but hopefully one day I’ll be good enough to atleast play in a cover band 🤘

I never allow myself to become fully excited before the tunning has been disclosed. Been burnt before.
Thanks for helping me learn this Chris!

Fear of the dark by Iron Maiden plz!!!
This was awesome :) ! Keep it up

Dope. Subbed - I love your Maiden solos too.
Thank's Excelent Lesson !
Thanks a lot for this lesson !
Nice job Man !!! Thanks
great tone
Hi Chris i have a little different question. I' m playing with an s540 ibanez with a really comfortable neck, BUT I'm looking from a quite different style of guitar. I'm looking for a PRS SE custom 24. How could you describe instrument's neck profile, I'm talking about the wide thin version. Is it a little bit thinner than modern C. And finally what about instrument's frets (jumbo-medium jumbo) and fretboard radius (is it at least 12) ?
Thank you and keep up the good work
Cheers Panagiotis (greek - difficult - name)
Can't tell what's better, the beard or the guitar
Do "shot in the dark"!!!!
that song is the bane of my existence
Thankyouthankyouthankyou, favourite solo of all time (after comfortably numb) just need you to do Gary Moore out in the fields next... Please
5:07 tabs 1
11:00 tabs 2
16:28 tabs 3
This is great. Thank you!!!
TY man! Love this lesson!

5:06 11:00 16:27
"No more hair"
+Silas Sell hahaaha

What is the point of this comment? You’re a loser.
Thanks for another great lesson, Chris! I'd like to request a lesson on the final solo from the 5:12 AM by Novelists.
your vids are very useful and helpful
Great! learned it right away.
Could you consider making a solo lesson o n the Corporal Jigsore Quandary solo's of carcass?
Love your PRS.. 🤘
Great lesson chris but can you please do a surfing with the alien lesson?
you are incredible!!
You are an awesome guitarist. How long have you been playing and is that all you do?
Very cool 😎
