In this Hit Me With Your Best Shot guitar lesson video, I will show you how to play all of this Pat Benatar classic note-for-note.
The tuning is standard tuning.
Guitarist Neil Geraldo wrote many great guitar parts for Pat Benatar and other artists. Some of these can be pretty challenging to play including his solo for "Hit Me With Your Best Shot".
The main chord progressions are pretty simple to play for both the verse and chorus sections.
Within the second verse there is a quick little guitar lick that is easy to miss if you don't pay attention.
However, the real star of the show is the guitar solo. Neil Geraldo starts the solo with probably the most difficult lick of the song. It can be hard to perform that lick accurately jumping straight from a rhythm guitar part to alternate picking an arpeggio across the top three strings.
After that lick, he jumps down into a lower register then starts to work his way back up with a really cool legato lick.
Geraldo has a knack for creating guitar licks that are probably a little bit different than what you would commonly see from a rock guitarist. These licks always fit the song perfectly though and become an integral part of the whole track.
After the solo, there is a arpeggiated version of the verse which moves around pretty quickly as well. This is a great exercise in controlling the sound of the notes with pick hand muting.
After that verse we reach the final chorus which is altered eventually to bring the song to a close.
The very end has a free-time section with some half-steps bends and an E7 chord.
I hope you guys enjoy taking a crack at all of Neil Geraldo's really cool guitar parts for this classic song! #hitmewithyourbestshotguitarlesson #patbenatar #guitarcovers

Guitar Hero 3 memories
Waiting for Slow Ride
Yo Boy Andersonn Omg I loved that game! That's what got me so into Metallica and Slayer!!
Guitar hero 3 saved my life, moving me away from the fucking fashion of regaeton in my childhood
7:59 for the solo. Thanks!
Thankyouuu
Thanks for another fantastic lesson! I especially appreciate the clear description of the picking pattern part immediately after the guitar solo - I've been wondering how he played that for years!
me too lol
Great job - I toured with them in the 90:s and that's how he does it
was the only one that I saw teaching this song correctly including the little lick that has in the middle of the verse!!!!
I always appreciate you noting and showing the little characterful nuance parts/fills. I feel I’m not giving a proper representation if they’re left out. So highlighting them is a big help!! Thanks!
Been checking out your lessons here and there for a while... You'r an outstanding guitarists and a excellent teacher... Keep it up mate.... 🤜👍👏
merry Christmas carl, thank`s for all the work you put into these vids.
jeff dubuque Merry Christmas, 2 years later lol
Cant believe nobody is talking about the tone!! Guitar sounds unreal
Neil is such an underrated guitar player! Awesome player! Covering his songs, like Journeys and The Cars, requires, for the most part, note for note solos! Major ingredient to songs, just like on Beatle songs! Improvise on Nowhere Man? I think not! Cheers my man👍

Hey Carl. I think you have, hands down, the Best how to play channel on RUclips! Thank you so much for all these Gems! Happy New Year. I looked at your vast list of songs but could not find Wild Night by Van Morrison, the great song with Ronnie Montrose on guitar. Do you think you might be able to do a video on that song. If not, it's OK, you have done just about every other song. I just hope you don't run out! Thankz

Another great lesson. Thanks.
Any chance of Jamie’s Got a Gun?Especially that solo. Nobody has a lesson on it because I suppose it’s a pretty unusual song to play. The solo is one of my all time favourites. Played on a thin bodied Chet Atkins acoustic.
Can you do Until it Sleeps by Metallica. I really want to learn that song and you’re the only person who can actually teach guitar online.
Hay Carl you should do straight through the heart of course by Dio, literally there are only two videos of how to play it on RUclips.Hope you do it thanks man love what you do God bless
Do a lesson for All Fired Up by Pat Benatar! Awesome tune!
Hey Carl, congratulations on your work, I'm your fan, I'd like to ask you for a BLUE Murder band tutorial, thank you!
Awesome videos! everytime i wanna learn a new song I look at your channel if you already made a video on that song because you provide such a detailed version of the song with tips and tricks keep it up!
Also i wanna ask if you could do a lesson on Let them Burn by Santa Cruz since i'm kind stuck on figuring it out by my self.
Can you a lesson on Any Colour You Like by Pink Floyd? There are very few videos out there that teach the song and I find your videos the most effective when Im learning new stuff.
Merry Xmas, Carl. 🎄
I noticed you don't have many lessons by The Who. I'd love to see Won't Get Fooled Again, The Seeker or A Quick One, While He's Away!
You are the best person ever honestly I love your channel so so much, would you care to do soma by smashing pumpkins and metallica my apocalypse please shout outs to you man honestly your one of my heroes keep it up✊✊
