    I only see people asking to new lessons... So i'll say something different.
    Thank you man! Very much. You don't how you helped me as a guitarrist. Serious. I have learned many solos that i wanted to play here in your channel and I learned this solo 2 years ago in this video to play with my friends, now, in 2018 i came back here to learn this again because i forgot the notes. Still good as always my friend. It's good to see that your channel has grown, you deserve that.
    Thank you very much for everything.

    Love this lesson. Very much.
    I have a request, I'm not sure if you've seen my other comments or my emails, but I'd really love a solo lesson on Nightmare by Avenged Sevenfold.
    You're very talented and I've been able to learn quite a few solos from your videos. They're very helpful and the best tutorials around. On any song.
    Thanks,
    C.E.

  • @Neishy4AGTE
    @Neishy4AGTE 4 года назад

    This a great tutorial, but the start the start of section 6, I'm 99 percent sure it starts with a picked 12 or slide up to 12, rather than a 13 12 10 pull off. Its really crisp if you listen to the song, It is hard to hear though so i could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure I'm not.
    edit- figured it out- in all eighth notes, its slide up to 12 before the measure starts than 13 12 10 all on the E string, then 10 on the B string, skipping G string its then 12 on the D, back to 10 on the B, an eighth note rest and then a slide up to 13 on the B string. Be sure to give those slide ups that "Syn attitude" its what makes it.

    • @Rock5Chalk
      @Rock5Chalk 9 лет назад

      Really? I thinks it's rather uninspired, as with Avenged Sevenfold as a whole. They have potential (aside from Shadows) but stay somewhat simple and predictable. My own favorite solo has to be Painkiller's (the Judas Priest song, not the Breakupcore band Three Days Grace's song). It's the kind of technical brilliance that seems to be lost on many bands nowadays.

    • @GetScaredGaming
      @GetScaredGaming 9 лет назад +1

      Rock5Chalk
      Tbh nothing really struck me when i listened to painkiller. Ive never really enjoyed Priest. Weird cause I love Iron Maiden actually.
      But how is MIA uninspired? It has a fuckton of emotion and just some cool shreddy licks.

    • @Rock5Chalk
      @Rock5Chalk 9 лет назад

      It just strikes me as rather generic. If you want some emotional songs, I've got two suggestions.
      1916 by Motörhead
      Embrace of the Endless Ocean by Amon Amarth

    • @Rock5Chalk
      @Rock5Chalk 9 лет назад

      Also, Priest decimates Maiden and defiles the remains. Where Priest released their last good, in fact, great album in 2014, Maiden hasn't even had a hint of a good album for many years now.

    • @GetScaredGaming
      @GetScaredGaming 9 лет назад

      Rock5Chalk
      I know both of those songs actually, both great. It kind of blows my mind that so many metal fans call metalcore bands generic when amon amarth has a ver very very similiar riffing style.
      But anyway, I think Maiden's newest album is very good. My favorite song by them will probably always be hallowed tho
