    *BEFORE YOU START!*
    TUNING: Eb - I forgot to mention it in the video, but this lesson is in Eb tuning! Please retune your guitar before getting started.

    • @kkepdawg1
      @kkepdawg1 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I was playing in standard tuning and I was like he didn't say drop D! No wonder it was off. Playing in standard wasn't to bad until play along time. I can't get the 3rd string hammer on clean on the C chord like at the 11 minute mark. Thanks for this!

    • @siriusb_k
      @siriusb_k ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Slash actually recorded these solos with his flying V. When you hit that 22nd fret you know why. Les Paul not built for that!

    • @dominicep0a875

      How do I get my guitar tone to sound like this? I'm not too familiar with adding effects to my guitar.

    • @bgabriel28
      @bgabriel28 ปีที่แล้ว

      That makes sense. Thanks for the tip. The opening G chord sounded wrong in regular tuning, and I thought the F# barre chord sounded better.

    What a flashback learning this song like 30 years ago. I agree that Slash melodic solos are good but don´t forget Izzy Stradlin always very underrated. Nice goldtop by the way.

    • @ChristianCMC
      @ChristianCMC 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Agree 💯. Izzy was really the guy that allowed Slash to do his thing out front. I'm sure Slash would agree.

  • @sillyskeleton
    @sillyskeleton ปีที่แล้ว +2

    This is one of the first songs I learned on guitar, long before I learned the chords it's built around. Was truly an eye opener years later when I found out all these iconic riffs I had learned came from the same small handful of chords I hadn't taken the time to study. That's all it took for me to go from avoiding music theory like the plague, to being absolutely fascinated by it.

  • @tommyhardin2546
    @tommyhardin2546 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Slash is one of my top five guitarists of all time. Like you said, he has great melodic solo's. This was a great lesson. This showed how well you can play. You are a very good teacher Justin. Your teaching style is very effective.

    One of my favourite songs ever. Learned to play the Bob Dylan version when I was younger. Started strumming again during lockdown after a 30 year break and taught myself to play it again. It’s now time time to put my shiny new Gibson to good use. Thanks for breaking down this epic cover Justin. You have just made my day 🤘

    But the first solo is a good one for learners. As sounds more difficult than it is and at an accessible speed I.e. not too silly fast.

    Great lesson, however, I find it extremely difficult to play the part involving the 22nd fret… close to impossible on my LP, a bit easier on the Strat. But still no way yet to play it clean with correct bends. Any tipps for me would be welcome.

  • @thephantom39
    @thephantom39 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    It seems to me, you may have spent a little time figuring out the pedals. A lot of this sound/song sound is off of the pedals. I know this is not Justin's Pedal page, but a quick blurb like I am using a chorus, delay, and reverb .. if that is what you used might help the rest of us get the correct tone.

    One thing is missing from these otherwise wonderful free lessons is a metrononome timed playing. But i guess this is for proper students along with the tablature. And a fun fact, i remember a few years back when Justin uploaded Patience by that very band and they obliged him to erase it. So take advantage people as long as it is still up.

    Hi there. It sounds (and looks) to me as if you hit some strings of that G chord in a seccond downstroke, right before hitting the thinnest string on the 3rd Fret in an upstroke. It's not in the tabs however and you only do it when playing it a bit faster during the demonstrations of the video. It sounds really cool but it's not on the record. In the tabs it would probably represented as a grace note or grace chord (if there is such a thing). I noticed though, that my brain adds this downstroke when I hear the intro in my head though. I Just wanted to point that out. I might try to actually add this to to how I play it. Should I? Does Anybody else notice that?
