Click here for ALL parts to this song in my Whitesnake playlist! • Whitesnake
"Still Of The Night" was released in 1987 on Whitesnake's hugely successful self-titled album and quickly became THE signature hard rock song for Whitesnake.
Co-written by lead singer David Coverdale and guitarist John Sykes, it is a classic example of 80's hard rock at it's peak.
"Still Of The Night" is quite unusual in how it is laid out. There are many different guitar rhythms and sections to learn. Besides the HUGE main riff that is instantly recognizable, you will also learn the complete solo, rhythms and interlude section.
I have even arranged the string section part for guitar just to make sure you don't get any break at all. 🙂 .
I hope you enjoy this one. It is a lot of fun to play and is a great study in 80's rock guitar techniques. Good luck!!

this is amazing!!! Kids today have absolutely no excuse to not know how to play guitar. (old man voice)BACK IN MY DAY YOU JUST HAD TO GUESS WHAT THE GEETARRR PLAYER WAS DOING!!!
Jeff Roth It’s like that with anything music related today. Remember having to get your “music news” from magazines like Hit Parader and Circus magazine? There is something to be said for learning a song by constantly hitting rewind on a cassette tape or back on a CD, it taught you how to play by ear. Once you did it a hundred times you could tell by listening to a new song where they where on the fretboard or what chord they where playing. You had to actually work for it to get better. I’m not saying it’s any easier to learn a guitar today then it was a few decades ago but it’s easier to find tabs or instructional videos thanks to RUclips and apps like Songsterr and Ultimate Guitar.
But that 'guessing things' create many guitar gods own style.
I had to buy the official TAB books (££££) and save up for REH or StaLicks vids. Ha!
Are you kidding me Jeff Roth. I’ve been trying to do this for a week. This song is intermediate to advanced. Of course this guy can play it he’s a guitar teacher and obviously been playing for many years. Not so easy for some of us.
You say this like someone can just casually watch cliffs of dover and play it perfectly after one watch
Man these lessons would cost thousands of dollars in the real world...I'M subscribed for life .
Thanks a million.............................................
Chris Nichols This is the real world....
looool
These lesson DO cost thousands of dollars. Carl just hasn't gotten around to billing you yet.
John Welch lol
I don't have any idea about how to play a guitar but I love the sound. I think guitar players have some kind of special powers to do all that crazy noizes. God bless you all!
Its just practice
I’m 59 yrs old LoL 😂 it’s so much fun,best pastime ever buy one,best$ever spent !
The guitar makes the noises, we just along for the ride.
11 years old was still refining your craft and still sounds amazing , great song , thanks for all your years of helping us
In the still of the night
I hear the wolf howl, honey
Sniffing around your door
In the still of the night
I feel my heart beating heavy
Telling me I gotta have more🔥
It's amazing to see just how simple the main riff actually is. Once you get it right at a slow speed, all you have to do is play it at the right speed. Well, that's the way I usually learn riffs and stuff.
I’ve been playing guitar since 12. I only dropped out because my teacher was teaching me in Spanish. Now as adult I realize how naïve it was on my part. I lost the opportunity of learning from a great teacher.
Back in the day there was no RUclips and the Internet was slow thanks to net zero. Technology has changed a game. Kids within two years are mastering Bohemian Rhapsody. Still the older generation earned their stripes through trials and tribulations. Nothing but passion sweat and tears. Fantastic video.
Fantastic lesson! John Sykes is very underrated! Thanks for the lesson and your gear sounds amazing! Love the dual rails 😎🎸
I love the sound of your pick ups
Seymour Duncan pickups.
Nice tutorial. Thanks. It cleared up a few nuances for me. But for those wanting to really nail that main blues riff, there is one thing Carl missed: when the B-C-C# chromatic precedes it, the usual first note (B on the 5th string, 2nd fret) is not used. Instead strike the middle E first (4th string, 2nd fret). Then do as Carl said for the other times (starting on the 5th string B). It's a small thing, and easy to miss for sure (I did it wrong forever myself). But when you do it this way and get used to it, then it becomes easy to hear on the recording -- and it's even cooler imo.
Have not played in years.. Got my guitar from the attic today thought this was a good song to begin with. Never played it all new.
Thank You for this lesson. It is the most spot on lesson on RUclips. You play it very well, the tuning and tone are perfect, and you really show us "wannabe's" how it is done. I have always liked this song. IN DEPTH!!!
Thanks!
great lesson....nice sound with those hotrails.......sweet
Thanks for your awesome lessons! For those of us still trying to dial in on tone, it would be helpful if the description listed settings (i.e. used distortion at X, with a slight delay). Keep 'em coming - very helpful.
Your Dimarzios sound crazy rad !!!! 💥
I know! I've been using DiMarzios since the 80s and want to get another strat jus to pop in some ProTracks. I've got a double bucker strat now with a Super 3/Super 2 set that positively crush Duncans.
@@angusorvid8840 Getting guitars b/c you love so many pickups is my problem to -
I love Duncan's (Distortions) BUT Dimarzio's are my #1!!!
I need to get another a strat to do stacked humbuckings -- insanity!! 💖💪😉
This might be a good candidate for re-filming Carl. I’d love to see this with your dialed in production quality. Such a banger of a jam!!!
your vids are very helpful unlike the majority of guitar lessons, you fall in the 5% of Chanel's that help with guitar
love the sound your getting!
I love this easy and automatic for the people
this strat pretty brutal :D
John Sykes was a beast on guitar.
Definitely
Great lesson...please, can you do a tutorial for "The deeper the love"? Really looove that song and there is no guitar lesson for that song anywhere around.
Thank you Master Guitar Teacher, Greetings from Norway
I hope you see this- you got a lot better at being on guitar and camera since then
As ALWAYS your tone is Dead On!! Absolutely Brilliant!
Great lesson!
Tone is spot on!
John Sykes rocks!
Awesome lesson. Somehow I can't get an harmonics on the F# on the E string yet....practice practice...
I can't do it on any 🤣. I'm not bad at guitar really. And I play mainly rock/metal but it's something I just can't do 🤷♂️
How was your practice🤣
Finally i got it
You're always my go to if I want to do a cover or just get a lesson best lessons 💯 on the web. It feels like I'm sitting with my older friends that played when I was learning and learning.
Also I've seen you with a Carolina shirt and I'm an NC native
Cool, Joe Bonamassa gives us Whitesnake Guitar Lessons.🤘🤘
I’d really like to see a video on “Slide It In”
Great lesson such a cool riff n song
At last an excellent exact lesson thanks
Can you do a tutorial for their songs "Bad Boys", "Crying in the Rain", or "Children of the Night"? That'd be awesome!
Horrorfreak106 How about the whole album?
Good deal bean trying to learn this song . Great teaching.
Excellent Lesson
Can you do Ain’t talking bout love by Van Halen???
Hi! Would you please describe how you build your tone in this class? Mainly the equalization parameters in your amp and gears. By the way, fantastic class! Thanks!
Great lesson
Thanks!
Thank you so much!
Awesome lesson 👍🤠
Lecciones de guitarra majistrales

Great tutorial. I wish you would do give me all your love.
Excellent!
great song and lesson!! thanks!!!
nice lessons / teaching methods
EXCELLENT.
What a rff!!!
Great lesson. THANK YOU...
Awesome!
Love the sound, what kind of pick-ups are you using?
You're a great guitarist
great lesson - thanks!
I gotta ask...what rig are you running to get this tone from a Strat? Rack or pedals tuned in? Amp? Educate me. Sounds killer!
One thing bothers me. Ive got the 87 record and the intro at 1:08 AINT the same as on the record and on every concert with Whitesnake.
Solved that. The first three notes are correct, after that it goes to the 2nd fret of the D string instead of the A string, then the rest as described
This is a great lesson for a great song. But does anyone else notice that the octave part of this riff is exactly Zeppelin's Immigrant Song? I'm sure that is intentional.
you can be sure as long as you practice often, friends
Great sound! What effects are you using? Do you run into an amp? Thanks!
Very good
Спасибо тебе братан, ты молодец
thanks, can you please share the complete signal chain and settings?
You going to show us the Cello part?
its an easy riff but a hard one to nail..... wish it came more naturally to my aging fingers
Great tone….what gear are you using?
How do you get your tone what pedals are u usin
nice tone i like it ver marshally :D
Your voice sounds very much like Joe Bonamassa's.
Nice lesson.
Maybe do slow an' easy by whitesnake?
i know he said that they are eric johnson pickups
Nice. Be good if you could actually tell folk what your set up is and effects..because there is many! Many guys just have a guitar and a crappy amp so there's no chance of this sound.
Pleeeeeease dude i need a lesson for "here i go again" please
Thank you. Nice sound, what pickups do you use?
4:52
wow
❤❤❤
One sexy riff
Hi! Please, i didn't understand how you do at the minute 4:51, the "little octave figure", it sounds weird when I'm playing, it's not the same sound you do.
The only things this video is missing is tawny kitean in her prime
Your doing nothing playing the music I love 🤟🤟
Отлично
Someone can tell me the kind of amp or pedal? Thanks!
How do you make a single coil fender sound so powerful.
What amp you using please ?
N effects
They aren't single coil, they are hambuckers withe single slot. Check Seymour Duncan Hot rails pickups.
Or Di Marzio DP 218 in this case.
What gauge are using??
John Sykes doesn't get enough credit... if only he didn't try to kick Coverdale out of Whitesnake
how do u get that sound with your strato?
which pick up you have mounted?
Luigi church he’s using the bridge pickup
omg CARL please REDO this, with your modern style! Please :)
How in the hell did you make that sound at 2:00? I can't 😁
It's a pinch harmonic
Damn I really can’t get that pinch harmonic
They are not EMGs.
nice emg's
haha yes!
Fu....im bad 😤🎸😞
Would you also do a complete on Pat Travers "Crash ab=nd Burn" ruclips.net/video/Lkm2WGTX220/видео.html ?
Would you do a complete lesson on Don Dokken "When Love Finds a Fool" ruclips.net/video/pMaZogMyS48/видео.html ?
Your voice does sound like Joe Bonamassa .... hmmmmm🤔🤔🤔
