  • Hi guys! Welcome to lesson 92 of Learn That Solo! Today we look at how to play the solo from 'Play With Me!' by Extreme off their self titled album.
    Dumb, awful and silly are words I'd use to describe this kind of song and music, however the solo is bitchin' and heaps of fun. I think it sounds harder then it is. As soon as you get your head around the string skipped arpeggios it all gets easier and the ideas and themes stay pretty consistent throughout the duration of the solo.
    Take care guys! Happy shredding!
    If you wish to request a tab/guitar pro file for this song, please send an email to learnthatsolo@gmail.com and we can discuss further.

    Took me 12 hours and about 20 espressos but I nailed it. May I have my guitar god certificate now?

      ***** Not yet, now you need to master the song playing only with your feet.

    I never know Del Piero could play funk very well after decided to retired in Juventus and continued his career as metal guitarist. its cool man!

    Cemetery gates is fine... I have a rule about Slayer solos though... I just find them awful.

    • @TristanJCumpole
      @TristanJCumpole 3 года назад

      They can be, definitely. What I love about the solos of many of these big thrash bands is how the rhythm often plays modified versions of the main riffs, and sometimes these are just as hook-y as the main riffs we associate with these tracks. Slayer and Metallica did this so well.

    Thank you! This was brilliant. Just the right pace. No hand-holding and no baby talk.

    Every time I need help with some part of a solo I can't quite figure out, I always search for Chris' lessons because I find his teaching methodology super comprehensive and most effective. It's comforting knowing that he is out there, helping us all guitar players from the world. Thank you very much!

    @tmeo9712 4 года назад +2

    It is more incredible than Bettencourt even came up with this insane solo idea, during an actual song. Maybe the most underrated solo of the 1990s. Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure made the band.

  • @edsweitzer9553
    @edsweitzer9553 5 лет назад +2

    That last scale (22 notes or so) can be played down the the same way you worked up to it in the beginning of this last set.
    The guys got mad skills.
    I find this easier
    And to replace the picking with a lot more hammers and pulls will help speed this up.
    Check out guitarlickz for same lesson.
    He doesn't show the ending though so I am grateful of this guy.

  • @chriszoupa7898
    @chriszoupa7898  11 лет назад +4

    Hey Wes. Have you checked out Scarified pt 1? It was a good suggestion dude!

  • @stormyandcold
    @stormyandcold 10 лет назад +2

    Excellent lesson, a really nice solo incorporating string skipping. This makes more sense than looking at tabs. Thanks a lot!

  • @supernintendochalmers6628
    @supernintendochalmers6628 9 лет назад +2

    and, fuckin, subscribe. i love how you taught it just quick enough for people who are capable of actually playing it. solid video bruh.

  • @ak47dragunov
    @ak47dragunov 10 лет назад +11

    That "vivaldi section" is done palm muted with pull offs, not straight tremolo picking

    • @mellowb1rd
      @mellowb1rd 9 лет назад +5

      How can you pull him up on that and yet miss the fact that he's not playing 16th notes?

    • @edsweitzer9553
      @edsweitzer9553 5 лет назад +1

      Guitarlickz does a great job.
      But doesn't show the ending.
      I think it takes mad skills to be able to slow things down enough to show others, and not get lost in the process.
      This piece is not perfect but very impressive.

    Hey, first off i wanna say your videos have helped me so much, your a great teacher, i was wondering if you have ever done a video on alternate picking, as your alternate picking technique is amazing, and I'm in a bit of a rut with it at the moment,

  • @GuitarLickzEthanLee
    @GuitarLickzEthanLee 11 лет назад +3

    You are a great teacher but the 1st phrase is in 16th notes - you have to play 3 open high E string after each note

    • @Carocade

  • @JoaoCosta-xw9uq
    @JoaoCosta-xw9uq 7 лет назад

    who else has problems at 5:18 ?
    because of the arpeggio position I can only play it by palm muting the g string, otherwise when I lift the pinky of the 12th fret G string the harmonic sounds
    (on the other arpeggios I can mute it just by lifting the finger cause there's no harmonic)

  • @mrsteve8341
    @mrsteve8341 6 лет назад

    I think thr in-between notes are a pull-off followed by 2 picked notes, like 5p0 0 0 7p0 0 0 8p0 0 0 etc

    • @mrsteve8341
      @mrsteve8341 6 лет назад

      Also I believe in section 4, he slides up to the 3rd and back to the root at the top of the Eb major arpeggio.

I'd love to know and try to play because I'm not the greatest guitarist been playing about 2 years and I'd love to tackle difficult stuff and just learn the patterns and speed, thanks bro and you're so awesome down to earth guy, I hope if I get ad good as you I can be that modest! You've taught me so many solos :)
