    One of, if not the best, rock guitar solos of all time.

  • @MetalRob81

    The phrasing in this song is brilliant. Chris, killer job my man.
    Would love to see Fortress in the future.

    Mark Tremonti is a very underrated guitarist

    • @TheCharudatta
      @TheCharudatta 8 лет назад +1

      Yes.

    • @dcxcaliberz
      @dcxcaliberz 8 лет назад +28

      I agree, him and myles are both amazing and while mark shreds with more skill myles has just as much if not more feel

    • @TheJwwinter
      @TheJwwinter 7 лет назад +21

      and Chris Zoupa is also a very underrated guitarist.
      He deserves a million subscribers.

      I have always been perplexed of how tremonti got a hell of a lot better since creed.

      Mark is getting more and more recognition but it is a bit odd why he is not a household name, he is one of the best at his craft.
      It is a travesty because AB is an amazingly crazy good talented band. Myles brings scary good vocals/guitar playing/song writing and overall presence..to an already established and amazing band. Mark Tremonti is one of the top guitar playing/song writing talents of this day. He and Myles are the perfect combo, Myles has such a bluesy soulful touch with a killer vibrato and Mark can shred effortlessly to go along with monster riffs.
      If you enjoy the music and haven't seen them live, treat yourself, you wont forget it.
      Hands down one of the best live bands out there.

    Thanks so much for taking my request on this solo Chris. Really appreciate it. You killed it as usual. It is nice to see this as there are no lessons for Blackbird on RUclips. Myles and Mark are truly amazing and underrated artists. I hope they continue to provide us with the awesome music that they always do. I know it isnt my place to request yet another song but I was hoping you could do Fortress in near future. That would be really awesome.

Keep up the great content! By the way I would appreciate it greatly, if you could tell me what pedals and amp settings you are using as my tone for this is a bit off, thanks.

    Absolutely fantastic lesson Chris. However, there's no lessons for Soothsayer by Buckethead. An absolutely incredible solo, albeit much longer and technically complex. If you ever can make a lesson for that, I'll be forever grateful.

    • @cesarsimon3143
      @cesarsimon3143 3 года назад

      hey dude, since it's been 4 years, thought i'd share my opinion. playing a prs is like playing on easy mode. the necks are amazing, the tone is the same, the scale is a bit shorter so you can use a thicker gauge and do the bends easier, and they just feel great. yes, they are expensive but they are worth it and you can always get a used one. way, way better than a gibson les paul, and if you go to guitar center you can find a used one even at another location. oh, btw, almost everybody treats prs very well, so they will likely be in great condition, mint.
