Solos I thought were IMPOSSIBLE are now possible with Ben. I’m not sure if everyone else gets your style teaching as well as I do but damn it really is my speed. Ty I think my speed is probably a lame cousin who has an older brother.

Awesome job. Though there's still a few tiny things that are a bit different in the original. At the start of the last run, it's not E on 12th fret, but F on 13th. And around the end of the run on 2nd string, E is picked 2 times. I dissected & learned this solo a long time ago, and it wasn't easy to hear all the notes properly.
My good sir, if you have an F on the 13th instead of an E on the 12 then you need to intonate your guitar.

@@peterk.rosenthal1417 What? Everybody has F note on 13th fret & E on 12th fret of their 6th string, if the guitar is in standard tuning. I'm just saying that instead of playing the 12th fret E note, 13th fret F is played on the 6th string during the fast run part of the original solo.
The internet is amazing. Just listening to that song on the radio and thought to myself, "What in the hell DOES he do at the end there?" - did a quick RUclips search and there you are. I'll never be able to play it but it's awesome to see that a human with incredible talent can play it :) Thanks man.
Thanks for your help, I was really struggling about the final part. And sometimes I stopped practicing because I was laughing about the "lame cousin" lmfao
great breakdown of a classic solo again, Ben! Though I know it's been done to smithereens by others, I wish you would tackle some more Randy Rhoads. Your explanations are epic.
The little pause in the fast run isn't after the A note, it's after the B, which makes sense for allowing some extra time to move the index finger to the 12th fret.
Hooo i'm late on this one but I needed to learn this and boy was I way off!. The final run is now much closer (I had to truncate some notees but still sounds great (at agre 55, don't think i'll be getting faster so I need some shortcuts!). Thhhhhhousand thanks to you Uncle Ben!
Ben, I'd like to thank you for sharing all of your content with us all!! I know you have played a major role in improving my playing ability by leaps and bounds! I have been working on the solo for the last day and have it up to step-dad speed, hopefully cool uncle speed will be attainable in the future!
Great job and amazing solo, I think with a triple vibrato at the end of the solo instead or just a single vibravo the solo would be even more kickass. 🤘
I like the fact you admitted you were wrong lol and find many times I played something wrong or missed a nuance etc on something. Glad I found this and was not a putting a couple slides in there which adds nuance and love this lesson lol @A Uncle Ben and actually now have a third Uncle younger than me!
Thank you, senor Benito. I use economy picking from G to b string so I can hit the D note on 15 fret with downstroke. It’s the only way that works for me.
That end run is the way ive been playing it for years,i bought a magazine called jam with whitesnake it had tabs in there,and its exactly same way your playing it
Thanks Uncle Ben! I've had the rest of the solo down for years, but that final run was always ok, but I knew it wasn't right. It will be now! (Also thanks to you I've managed to get my 4-piece cover band doing Jump by VH with me playing the whole lot on guitar - love it!)
Thanks, a great lesson! Will have to finally try to learn that last "mystery" part now. Where can I get a copy of that great sounding version of The NeverEnding Story that plays in the background? Giorgio Moroder😎
Thanks for the vid Uncle Ben..Maybe you already know this but on youtube if you click the 3 dots top right, you can change the play back speed wirhout changing pitch.I use it on isolated guitar parts and your vids haha. This was a great lesson. Thanks! I will check that app out
Man I’ve gotta tell u, ur a massive help with advice with playing the guitar I’ve improved so much with my speed shredding thx so much man that app is great 👌🏻👌🏻
Thanks for the breakdown, perfect balance between professional and fun :) You know listening to the original at 0.25x, it seems to me that more of the notes after the initial "pause" are also a bit atemporal. I wonder if it's not just an artefact of the guitarist simply playing the run as fast as he could with target notes at the end and this is what his fingers came up with. The note movements are almost impossible to hear at 0.5x and certainly not at 1x.
Hello Ben, you can put the youtube link from your version of the song "Here I go again" here. I hear with "my" version that I have small differences of "Here I go again" ... Thank you for your work !!
Nice breakdown of the solo! Nice use of 2WPS. I love The Amazing Slow Downer app. I also use Riffstation. Planning on getting the Transcribe! app soon.
Excellent lesson as always Uncle Ben! Any chance we could get an Alex Lifeson lesson? Personally I struggle with wrapping my head around the legato, bending, and pinch harmonics in the Under the Shadow section of The Necromancer; there are no real good covers or lessons anywhere for me to look at to get a better feel for what Alex is doing. Please help, the first solo in that section is one of the most incredible things I've ever heard and it's easily his best solo in my opinion. A look at the solos in the Presentation or Soliloquy sections of 2112 would also be much appreciated. Or even a lesson on La Villa Strangiato if you're up for it. Many thanks my dude
I know I'm 5 years late to the party with this comment; I must have been under a rock? Seen your videos before-but never realized all your other content! Just sub'd. Hilarious: 'weekend wankshop'. Fantastic job, and Thanks for putting this out there. PS: Please post the Kemper Profile and IR you used!!! Sounds great.

That final run has been a mistery for a looong time. Thanks uncle Ben! You should do the Still of the Night solo too!
Awesome Uncle Ben, I have been asking him to do Still Of The Night guitar solo too. That run at the end is the hardest part.
“Still of the night” solo is a guitar mystery that should never be solved
Timeless!
Your extra attention to detail is appreciated. Phrasing is everything especially in a signature solo such as this.
Thanks!
My favorite solo of the 80's hair-band era.
Amen!
“Is this Love” is right up there too👍

So much better explained than any other video I've seen about this solo ever in the history of instruction. Period. Exclamation point. Ampersand.
We need more of these "feely" solos in the todays rock music... Thats an esseintial part of Rock music that has been missing since the mid 90s..
The internet is amazing. Just listening to that song on the radio and thought to myself, "What in the hell DOES he do at the end there?" - did a quick RUclips search and there you are.

Nice work Ben! Your approach to teaching solos is stellar!
Excellent man - 80's Whitesnake, White Lion, Def Leppard ... More Hair Bands bro! You've got killer tone and many thanks for teaching these
one of my favorites so far. The slow down at the end is pretty amazing as far as helping work through that run
How about a Andy LaRoque type solo? NO ONE has vids on his stuff, but his guitar playing is SO underrated!!
good call! suggestions, please
Ben Eller the family ghost! I know you can slay the intro solo! There's a great intro descending run , please please do this one!!!
@@BenEller Sleepless nights! Or Michael Denner's final solo from Black Horsemen. Great guitar solo
@@BenEller welcome home ( Andy and Pete Blakk ) king Diamond
Loved the "Never Ending Story" solo.
The little pause in the solo is fucking with me. I'm finishing too early.
(Story of my life)
Hahaha, good one
Uncle Ben, thanks for the awesome lesson, how about "Still Of The Night" as well? :-)
Thanks for your help, I was really struggling about the final part. And sometimes I stopped practicing because I was laughing about the "lame cousin" lmfao
You're amazing teacher, always.
Thanks

That was flawlessly executed and your attention to detail is awesome… but my favourite part was “juicy vibrots”. 😂🤘🏻
I thoroughly enjoyed the never ending story riff in the intro.
I’m getting a wig and making a parody of this song. Thank you Ben. Your channel is awesome. I’m a fan👍🏼
Well uncle Ben,I must say I surely enjoy the way you teach and really dig your self portrait on the wall behind ya! Keep um coming !
Awesome. Awesome. Slowly I'm getting the shredding part in my system.
The best tutorial for this one, definitely, by far
Awesome style of teaching.Learning.Thank you.
great vandenberg solo, best guitar player of whitesnake!
Thank you.
Thank you, brother, very well explained. I'm going to do my homework
Uncle Ben your step dad shred is amazing !!! thx for this one, takes me back, i gotta practice this one
Thanks man🙌!..gonna try it👍
The little pause in the fast run isn't after the A note, it's after the B, which makes sense for allowing some extra time to move the index finger to the 12th fret.
Talking of Whitesnake super shred, how about some John Sykes shred on 'Cryin' in the Rain' or 'Bad Boys'?
Bad boys !!!! Yeah
Thank you for your hard work Ben. Awesome lesson.You made me go and finally make it right.
Hooo i'm late on this one but I needed to learn this and boy was I way off!. The final run is now much closer (I had to truncate some notees but still sounds great (at agre 55, don't think i'll be getting faster so I need some shortcuts!). Thhhhhhousand thanks to you Uncle Ben!

Yooooo! Limahl for the intro win! Very tasty, Uncle Ben!

great lesson! thanks for sharing. I would love to see you tackle Europe's Superstitious solo. kee Marcello super melodic solo!
Childhood dream come true!

nicely done Uncle Ben. Never noticed the Ax2 in the background until now. Had that same killer amp. Do you still use it? Peace!
Thanks! That II was being borrowed, I got the III years ago and have used it sooooo much. Amazing gear.
Great lesson . I’m pretty sure I caught that “ Never-ending Story “ thing in your intro and ending 🤔
thank you teaching！
Thank you I finally got the solo.
@benellerguitars Please do Still Of The Night
Yay! You got the run correct. Almost everyone plays that wrong and makes it harder than it actually is.
neverending story!!
from France : great video
Never ending story riffs i love it..
Ben Rocks🤘

great lesson Ben!
that was a great lesson
EXCELENT! Thank you!
estuve esperando este vídeo con ansias!!!!
Nice run through
thanks bro very helpful!!
The 'D majeur arpeggio' can easily be played in the 10th position. Just use the b string for the first high a note. Same bend, though.
I believe the run on the D run is incorrect but other than that, very well done sir
Thanks, this is very helpful :-)
Awesome! ALso- where can I get a backing track for that Never Ending Story into??
