  • Hi guys! Welcome to lesson 69 of Learn That Solo! Today we look at how to play the solo from 'Under A Glass Moon' by Dream Theater.
    Holy moley. This was the most epic lesson yet! It has a gentleman's 8 sections. If you take it slowly and work through the sections at a sensible pace you should be able to get this one in time. It is an advanced solo so if you're below an intermediate level... TURN BACK NOW!
    If you wish to request a tab/guitar pro file for this song, please send an email to learnthatsolo@gmail.com and we can discuss further.
    Take care guys! Happy shredding!

    When I listen to Chris all my talent is elevated to the six degree. Some player are so good you never want to play again. But you are so talented teacher you plant the possibility of the impossible. Your so incredibly important for my guitar growth. All love to your wonderful family and friends.

    Unbelievable video for an unbelievable solo, you actually make it seem achievable which you can only get from good teaching. Like how much you break it down, and I appreciate the effort that went into making this

    "...not cool enough..."
    Actually, I think the fact that you can fake a vibrato bar flutter on a fixed bridge guitar and still have it sound fucking great is pretty damn cool. AWESOME work, man.

    High five man, one of the best renditions I've ever seen (tried myself too but still not clean and perfectly articulated as yours), considering you've done it also on a fixed bridge guitar. Love in particular the infamous sweep-megasweep-tapping section, flawless.

  • @ryancola69
    @ryancola69 11 лет назад +17

    Really really helpful, man! I have the Jam With Dream Theater DVD from Lick Library, and your lesson is much better than Andy James' for this song. His tutorial skipped notes in a few licks, and sometimes he'd get a note completely wrong. Yours is dead-on. That big sweep is a monster to get clean.

  • @rabbyp1200
    @rabbyp1200 11 лет назад +2

    You got the same dynamics without a a pick and without a floating tremolo. Fantastic job

  • @petesorensenguitar
    @petesorensenguitar 3 года назад +1

    The part you are talking about at 20:00 isn't a blues style bend. It's a minor third hammer on and pull off at the 11th and 14th frets on the b string. He's also fluttering with the tremolo on every 11th fret note, but obviously that aspect of it isn't applicable to your demonstration for lack of a tremolo system. Still, I appreciate that you're making do.

  • @gavindalton2238
    @gavindalton2238 3 года назад +4

    19:15 you actually have to re hammer onto all those notes. Honestly playing how it is on the recording is so much harder and hardly sounds different so I just play it how Chris does

  • @spyroschristoulakis6296
    @spyroschristoulakis6296 9 лет назад +4

    Great lesson! I'd like to point out 2 minor details, though. In the first section, at 0:18 in the video, I clearly hear Petrucci going to that D# on the 6th fret of the 5th string after a C# (4th fret, 5th string) and not after an E (7th fret, 5th string), like you said. I've listened and slowed down various versions, including the studio version and the one that he plays the solo all alone on RUclips. So, to conclude, after the little bend of the C# on the 6th fret of the 3rd string, he goes: B (4th fret, 3rd string), then 6th and 4th frets on the D string (G#, F#), then 6 and 4 on the 5th string (D#, C#) and concludes on the D#. All the notes I mentioned are 16th notes, except for the last D#. Also, in that video, right after that D#, he goes to the D# two octaves above, at 0:19 in the video, (16th fret, 2nd string) and starts the analyzed Emaj7 section (G#, E, D#, B) repeated in the 3 octaves. Whereas, I saw you using an E major chord starting with the G# on the 13th fret of the 3rd string. From what I hear, it's just a D# to start the "analysis" of the Emaj7 chord. I hope I made sense and have a nice day!

I also know almost the entire tornado of souls solo, I do it perfectly just missing one out of i think 6 arpeggios and the closing shred
