I'm happy enough to play it at 4/4, but damn do I want to figure this out. I come from a Hetfield as my guitar hero background, so it's particularly challenging for me
I always argue with people that Gilmour is one of the best guitarists to do it. He was never super technical or fast, but the emotion that his solos project is unreal
@@Nero-Forte99 thank God, he is not one of those super technical shredding jerks who are annoying af. he is an artist. one of the very best ever on the planet.
Great job. If I had to choose one, I think this is my favorite solo of all time. The tone is perhaps the greatest sound ever produced by an electric guitar in my opinion.
I love the format, Im so tired of those teachers that want to tell me which finger goes on which string on which fret. that they feel they have to teach at the lowest level . how are the newbies gonna learn the neck if you just spoon feed them! Your format makes it so simple to see and hear it done correctly. Watching it being played is how I have always learned to play, with friends, at shows and now watching you play. Your fingers have a way of enunciating each cord or note exactly! I only wish I could have learned in this way back when this was first released, I got my first guitar shortly thereafter. Thank you so much!
Thankyou! Really appreciate the comments. My approach has always been to produce videos that I think would help ME. I cannot watch videos that tell me note by note what to play. I don't have the patience for it... and it just isn't what I need. Most intermediate guitarists like me can read a bit of tab... and even without the tab they have played enough that watching someone is often enough to show them the chord or the pattern of the riff, the timing, the basic neck location etc. TH-cam also allows you to slow it down and rewind so that's all I (and many others) need. Ive got nothing against the channels that show note by note - I'm sure it must work for some people - but it doesn't work for me so I'd feel like a fraud if I did it that way. And - oh, how I'd have loved TH-cam when I was a kid learning!!! Anyhow... all the best Jeff!
Tough solo to play well, but you nailed it. Gilmour's style is so difficult to replicate with all of signature techniques he throws in with the bends, slides, etc.. The guy is just so ridiculously talented and creative.
Glad you enjoyed it! Everyone focuses on Gilmour's solos... but his rhythm playing is first class. Check out my "Dogs" video - there's some really interesting rhythm parts in that one!
@@SparkyGuitar Over Thanksgiving a musician asked me who my favorite electric guitarist is, himself somewhat of a player, no hesitation 'David Gilmore'. He was literally stunned for a few seconds. Well then OK who's next? 'Billy Gibbons, for different reasons'. His brain was cooked at that point and just sat smoking his cigar staring at me, probably wondering what universe I was from.
thanks you lots for this one. before learning the solo, i wasn't really used to the bending technique. i feel like the solo in this song being full of bending and me practicing it for months now has given me more control over the guitar and improved my skills in general. who would've thought.
The great thing about this is the fact that the rhythm guitar part was played separately from the lead/solo part which is how it was originally recorded. Pure talent!
@@carlosmanuelgonzalez310 lol respectfully disagree. EC named an album Slowhand, doesn't crown him though. 95 percent of DG's repertoire and style is slowhand. EC released an album called Slowhand. Huge difference
I was eating a bowl of cereal when I scrolled down 4 a peak at the comments, when suddenly, thanks to you, milk came shooting out of my nose. Thank you.
I need to be able to click 'like' more than once. :-) (so I paid to download the tabs, etc, from patreon.) so very well done, thanks much, sparky mcsparkerson.
All on the bridge pickup, I have a Tobacco Burst Starcaster with a HSS tortoiseshell pickguard and Maple Neck, looks identical to yours, Magnum Opus Brother.
Excellent tutorial! You clearly put in a lot of effort on this, so thanks for that. You should try a UniVibe type pedal for that Breathe Reprise section at the end. Keep up the great work!🙏
That is a nice lookin fender, I had a squire and didn’t really love it that looked just like it, But it didn’t have the poplar neck, I’m guessing that ones made in corona California? Gorgeous
Thanks! It's a mid 90's USA one... I've just had to strip all of the lacquer off the neck as it was chipping (Fender used some cheap lacquer around then!)... gave it a new oil/wax finish. Gave it a full fret level/crown/polish... now it's ready for a new song to cover!
@@SparkyGuitar I got a Deluxe Plus from 93 with a maple fingerboard. And the finish is chipping off in the coolest way. As a kid growing up, I remember seeing so many old 50's Strats with worn out necks looking like animals were chewing on it. Loved the look so I do chip away at various spots to give it the "relic look". But it's a slow process relicing your own guitar a yr at a time. So far only been at it 24 yrs and still at it every week. Easiest way, play every day at least 1 he. L O L
And you run, and you run to catch up with the sun, but it's sinking Racing around to come up behind you again The sun is the same in a relative way, but you're older Shorter of breath, and one day closer to death
My mates older brother bought this album when it came out ..... I stuck the free stickers on my bedroom door (since gone over 40 years ago). The lyrics hit me like a sledgehammer back them (as I'm sure they did a lot of people) yet here I am, 48 years later? So, Time? -- what does it really mean - we worry and fret as much about life/death and infinity when we are are 12 as we do when we are 60? ... is that what life is all about ?
I hate to split hairs over such a well done video and guitar playing....But, the guitarist really needed to put the pickup switch in the middle position for the intro and solo. 🤘🏻🙂👍🏻 It just sounds a little smoother!
Hi Colin. No problem! Maybe.. and maybe not. The pickups on that strat aren’t good - so with better pickups the bridge might be fine. I’m looking to replace them - but not sure what to go for! So - with the current pickups I’d agree with you … but once they’re replaced I think the bridge would be ok.
@@SparkyGuitar That’s certainly not meant as an attack on your playing! Well done! I’ve always flicked the switch over when I play that solo. Great job man! 🤘🏻😎
Finally a tutorial covering the rythm parts. I find them harder to get down than the solo itself. Thank you!
Completely agree! The rhythm part was the real reason I wanted to learn this one... takes a lot of feel to get it right.
@@SparkyGuitar thank you for that work, even with the tab the rhythm is so hard to learn
honestly if youre trying to get better at rhythm guitar, give funk a try. it teaches you a bunch of ways to spice of your rhythm
I'm happy enough to play it at 4/4, but damn do I want to figure this out. I come from a Hetfield as my guitar hero background, so it's particularly challenging for me
Yes everyone always has the lead part when I’m just trying to play the rhythm it’s much fun imo
This guitar solo always takes me to a trance.
Me too
Me too
Me too
All Pink Floyd songs 🥳🥳
It triggers my inner pedo
With all the famous 100 mph solos out there, this is one of my all time favorites
I always argue with people that Gilmour is one of the best guitarists to do it. He was never super technical or fast, but the emotion that his solos project is unreal
Gilmour is a master of quality > quantity
100 Meh's per hour.
This guy Gilmour is the real deal, he knows how to use notes brilliantly.
Gilmour is the true Slowhand Man
@@Nero-Forte99 thank God, he is not one of those super technical shredding jerks who are annoying af. he is an artist. one of the very best ever on the planet.
Great job. If I had to choose one, I think this is my favorite solo of all time. The tone is perhaps the greatest sound ever produced by an electric guitar in my opinion.
I think it 's the best solo cover ever all over internet. The sound and the note detail is perfect. Keep on.
Wow, thank you!
This was transcendental absolutely... but I would also venture you have a watch of "Ask" by Daniel Earwicker and come back and reply.

All lesson vids should learn from this format. Clear, concise, on point, great presentation. Cheers
David Gilmour- the solo master and the sensei of trancy fills
Yeah he plays slow but complicated.
Agreed. Did you see the little smile? Kinda like Tim Pierce enjoying the moment. Nice.
First person I’ve seen on TH-cam play it correctly. Nice work!
This is the only cover I've found on here that sounds 💯 correct. Nice job!
Good job 👍
Thanks for the tabs!
There's a hell of a lot packed in here. The rhythm part is amazing to see played. Excellent. Thank you for doing this!

@@fly1327 Gilmore is on the top 10 rock guitar players list from Guitar Player mag.... ( or was it rolling stone?)
5:05 eargasm 10/10 my ears are pleased. Thank you 😊
I’m wondering what pedal he kicks on there
thanks you lots for this one. before learning the solo, i wasn't really used to the bending technique. i feel like the solo in this song being full of bending and me practicing it for months now has given me more control over the guitar and improved my skills in general. who would've thought.
How long have ypu been playing guitar before trying to learn it? Im wonderijg if in ready...
@@stanisawsowinski934 longer than I’d like to admit 😂
This will be the first song I learn when I finally get an electric guitar. This is my favorite song ever 😩 it makes me feel
The great thing about this is the fact that the rhythm guitar part was played separately from the lead/solo part which is how it was originally recorded. Pure talent!
thanks for the effort. You've made pink floyd fans really excited to learn this song.
Gilmour is the true Slowhand Man
А Another brick in the wall?
you got that wrong. I love Gilmour's art, but Eric Clapton is Slowhand.
@@carlosmanuelgonzalez310 lol respectfully disagree. EC named an album Slowhand, doesn't crown him though.
95 percent of DG's repertoire and style is slowhand.
EC released an album called Slowhand. Huge difference
@@carlosmanuelgonzalez310 if you can name me 15 songs of EC that shows slowhand style I'll stand corrected.
PFFFTT GILMOUR IS SLOWHAND???
This is very cool! Perfect! Thank you! The tabs and guitar presets are very useful.
I learned this whole song by ear. I’m pretty impressed on how close I was. Nice vid.
That solo is freaking majestic 😍
the rythmic guitar is so cool and dificult, a constant 1/16 like in funk, and the chord sounds on the exact 1/16. great. thank you!!!
I was doing amazing until 1:37
Brilliant!
We have the same patology
lmao, same

Best I’ve seen on here up till now 👌👌👌 bang on 💪
Cheers Peter!
Sparky Guitar credit where credits due 👌👌👌
Dude! I found you for a tutorial but i come back for your tone! Jamming at work!

You knocked this one out of the ball park.....thank you. If I had a third arm, I'd give this 3 thumbs up....
I have the tab book published in 1990 (cost me £15 at the time) this is spot on :-)
Perfection! Thank you very much for this tutorial.
Way to go sparky.
Best cover I have seen. Got a subscriber.

Outstanding lesson and playing…thanks for posting!
Thankyou! You are very welcome!
First song I’m officially learning. I mean c’mon. 🤘👏

How do you obtain this sound? Effects or preset (guitar rig, amplitube, ecc)?
Hi - details and the presets are in the description... Its GuitarRig... recorded in Logic Pro.
Damn impressive dude u make it look ez but it’s not; great work
Thankyou!
PUTZ! Como é complexo isso..O Guilmour era mesmo gênio!!
What is the origin of Dark Side of the Moon? For me it comes from a James Taylor lyric.
Gratulation verry good
