  • Don Felder of The Eagles played the Hotel California opening riff with a capo on 7. If you're playing it live you may want to be able to perform the song capo-free to retain the full freedom of the fretboard. Here's how to handle that opening riff without a capo...
    This video was originally uploaded to my main channel ‪@JamesHargreavesGuitar‬ on the 24th August, 2018. It never went live because it had the Eagles' recording of the song playing in the background, and got copyright-blocked. This has now been fixed...

    The C barre chord is hell for me to learn but thanks for this video it's really helpful.

    Very good, very good indeed. I will be using this. I'm one who has to flip the capo off halfway through the song...

    He played the interverse leads on the 6 string neck. He only used the 12 string neck for the song intro and the 2 verses. ALL other work was on the 6 string neck. Watch the live video from 1977.

      In listening to the multitrack and through countless interviews Felder says he uses a 12-string acoustic throughout the entire recording. He uses a double neck during live shows

    Does anybody know anyone in the world who is playing Hotel California with a capo on the second fret?

    Not to mention, removing and adding a capo tends to detune the guitar.
