Possibly the best ac/dc tutorial ever. Helluva good job brother?
Wow, thanks!
not possibly - definately !😄
about 6:10 I paused the video and scrolled down to make basically the same comment!
Josh has that rare combo of being both a passionate teacher and incredible player!
This is such a clear and concise breakdown. Josh is an awesome teacher!🎸
The precision is the thing. I would normally never play without some reverb. But trying this exercise I have to turn it off completely. Love it!
This has got to be one of the best-presented and best-thought-out guitar lessons on TH-cam. It's definitely the most fun. The jam session is the perfect way to put the material to immediate use.
Wow, thanks! We appreciate that a lot
Oh man - this video just appeared on my "you should watch this" list that was effen awesome - Malcolm Young, bless him, the undisputed engine room of AC/DC - that was the best AC/DC tutorial I have seen - subscribed
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
Great lesson, especially for dudes (like me) obsessed with soloing. Thank you!
Best ACDC tutorial for an intermediate guitar player I've ever seen.... Excellent!
Thanks so much! 🤘🎸
Been playing acdc for years but this is just what i've been missing. Thank you. I'll get right onto it.
Heck yeah! Thanks for watching! 🤘

Thanks for watching, rock on 🤘

AC/DC played at my high school in 1974...
So cool! nearly 50 years ago 😮
Lucky 🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻⚡⚡⚡⚡🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Sweet! Jailbreak!
So envious.
We salute you
Really good tutorial. A lot of people seem to miss Malcolm's contribution to the sound and are focused in Angus.
The key to their sound is the combination of both brother's respective sounds.
Thanks for watching!
Nice job on this. Your clean technique, timing and nice tone make it easy to really hear that AC/DC thing!
Thanks a lot!
AC/DC always sounds easy but when I get to it I always realize that man, that groove is hard to capture.
Then you come a long and do it effortlessly god damn it.
All kidding aside, it’s the first time I watched a video of yours and it was amazing. You have ease and it helps. Great video indeed.
Really helpful for me going into AC/DC songs.
Thanks.

man im 62 and jamed this and learned the hard way but this guys is on he got good rhythm and lead !
Thanks for watching! 🤘⚡️
Get yourself some fat stings, like 11s or even higher and sting them up nice n tight. Think: acoustic. Now dont use too much distortion. Natural boost with volume is best. Basically it should be hard to use vibrato. Lol.
Best way to practice Malcolm's precision and tightness and groove; play Mal's parts on Jailbreak or High voltage live. He sits on one chord to let Angus do his magic. Sometimes only 2 strings but brings up the tension with his brother so naturally.
Theyll do this for like 5 minutes or more depending on Angus's shredding.
And remember Mal will usually play low on the neck with open chords while Angus may play a bar/power chord or variant thereof. Together they sound massive!
My favorite band of all time. i consider Malcolm young my guitar teacher. AC/DC LIVE video is my Holy Grail of guitar. The famous Donnington show. And Angus has the most beautiful black SG.
great vid my dude.🤘
Upon winning some rock mag best rock player Angus said "I‘m not even the best guitar player in the band."
Best writer.. Most overlooked!!
super good old school soloing!
🤘🎸
"Roots and 5ths" would be an excellent band name.
You're on to something....
Excellent work ty much appreciated. AC/DC nailed top to bottom. 😊
Rock on!
You had me searching for your lesson with this video!
Learning “Malcolm’s rhythm techniques”
I’m so in! Went to your site, not one thing about this topic at all.
Am I missing something?
There's a Rock Learning Pathway. I presume that's what you're looking for.
I recommend using AC/DC as a learning tool for any new player interested in Rock n Roll.
🤘
🤘🎸
❤
After watching this I feel like getting rid of my neck pickup for good.
Made Rock history playing 3 chords....
R.I.P. Malcolm.
😇
Like the Ramones, their sound is iconic.
Agreed!
Which AC/DC song is that? The only part I can kind of recognize is SHOOT TO THRILL, but that's not the whole thing.
Is that an AC/DC song? If so which one? Or is that just a jam for the video?
🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟
😁
@@Pickupjazz 👌🎼🎵🎶🎶
What's the name of that song? I don't recognize it
This is an ACDC inspired jam from our Rock Learning Pathway 🤘
@@Pickupjazz Wow it actually sounds like an ACDC song! I thought it was weird that I didn't recognized it immediately since I'm a huge fan of ACDC. Thank you for the lesson 👌
I don't understand taking out the other pickups. Can't you just turn them off? Isn't it the same?
i think he's reffering to the second coil of the humbucker
@@petchai4814 oh, I see. Thanks.
Malcolm dug in and hit the strings hard. I’m guessing the extra pickups simply got in his way.
There's a train of thought that each pickup affects how the strings vibrate, each will dampen the vibrations so by taking the neck pickup out he's trying to maximise the tone of each string. That ties in with removing the lacquer from the guitar body. Or maybe he kept hitting his pick on it?
Not sure why people say one of the greats of Rhythm. It's all guitar. We should say one of the guitar greats full stop.
When did Bill Steer lose his British accent?
Jerry Cantrell
what's the difference between turning off a pickup and turning it off... absolutely nothing.
Myślę że tajemnica tkwi w umiejętności wykorzystania brzmienia gitary a nie w technice gitarzysty. W prostocie siła ! AC/DC
Rick Parfitt i afraid was a better rythmn guitarist song writer and singer from the mighty Status Quo.
Don't understand that D ...
Malcolm was a force of @#$%G Nature. He is proof that simple stuff can kill.
absolute facts!
Such a true comment. Long Live Malcolm
It’s Brian Young
Miss Malcolm, he was the engine.
I can’t take this dude seriously looking that
Jr. Rock! They only wrote one song changed it up & made millions. 🥱🥱💤💤💤 proving that u don't have to make art to make money!!
A woefully inane comment.
Stupid comment
