That was when their drummer had both arms. They went soft after his car wreck. But Def Leppard holds their place in the metal world. They were good and no matter what, I won't let go 🤣

I remember seeing Def Leppard opening for Ted Nugent when they were barely 18. Funny story: My band got a late call once in the 1990's to play the local city sponsored Oktoberfest. As we took the stage the Oktoberfest talent director pulled me to the side saying: "You guys aren't going to play three solid hours of Def Leppard are you?".....I assured him not to worry. "We play everything from ZZ Top to well, ZZ Top!" I said. When it was all over that Saturday night they invited us back for next year.
I haven't played my guitars for over a month. Dealing with some headache and ear issues, as well as general work burnout. But, i found your AC/DC video yesterday, and now this one-these will be what i will be working with as i get my **** back together during the holiday time off. Thank you-great choices of songs/artists, and the perfect way to demo/teach the riffs.

Good stuff. After Mutt Lange produced "High and Dry" (A great album), he really leaned into their AC/DC-esque sound but did with them what I think he wanted to do with AC/DC after "For Those About to Rock" (another great album). I'm sure Angus and Malcolm fought tooth and nail and was why Mutt found more time on this hands and creative control with Def Leppard. Mutt is quite an accomplished musician, songwriter, arranger, and producer, and that wasn't lost in these albums. "High and Dry" is an epic album in its own right with songs like "High and Dry (Saturday Night)", "On Through the Night", and "Bringing on the Heartbreak". But it's no coincidence that their sound was very close to the raw, untamed offerings of AC/DC. Sticking with Joe Elliott's strong tenor voice, Mutt knew the keys of A and E were going to be the staple of Leppard's set list. Heck, even the iconic "Pour Some Sugar On Me" is in C#m, borrowing heavily from both A and E. They knew how to craft great tunes and their concerts are still pretty epic. Joe had the appeal to bring the ladies and when they added Collen, all bets were off. The stadiums were packed with rockers of all kinds, and whether people love or don't Def Leppard, they brought rock to the masses in a time when people had declared rock a dead genre.
Hey Marty thanks for the reply… I WILL Be CHECKING Out your other videos..btw I probably missed it but are you in a special tuning for these lessons??.. thanks..e
@@eddiesaenz9291 thanks Eddie. For this one I believe I was standard. Typically I am standard but the old Van Halen is close to e flat. I tune to the records pitch sometime they records are flat. I believe all the Leppard stuff is standard 440. 🤟🏻
Steve Clark always had some cool chord voicings and I really enjoyed learning clean intros like Foolin and Bringing on the Heartbreak their use of the different triads and splitting the parts between two different players was completely different than the clean parts in all the thrash stuff I started out on. I’m sure it’s not completely unique to Def Leppard but their parts seemed more methodical and planned out to set a mood . I always played that bridge riff in too late for love different than that

So just a couple of helpful bits... on the first one: use your first and second fingers to play the first two cords, then use your ring or pinky to add the C on the 5th fret. An alternate way to play photograph which I think adds a little more umph because it's based on an E power chord on the 5th string 7th fret. With your first finger bar the two middle strings at the 7th fret... think of this as your anchor. Later in the song, you can slide it down to play an open A with it. With the anchor in place let's play the riff... bar the same two middle strings on the 9th with your ring finger. This is the lower half of the E power chord I was talking about. As a matter of fact, if you want a more bassier sound, you can have the anchor finger include the E (5th string on 7th fret) and/or the open E 6th string. The second chord requires that you rock that ring finger up to just hold the 4th string on the 9th and add the middle finger to the 3rd string 8th fret. The third chord is made by just moving that ring finger down to the 3rd string on the 9th fret. The fourth chord is to just play that anchor (bared 3rd and 4th strings on the 7th) . I also like to add 2nd string 10th fret with my pinky. Now as we get into the song I tend to let the tip of my first finger in that anchor position touch the 5th string to mute it and on occasion chug a bit on that open 6th E string. Enjoy!
That was pretty awesome man! Sick tone. Very crunchy and airy. Are you going into and amp & mic cab or Sims? I dig the Custom also. Is it a ‘70s? Cheers. 🤘🏼
Thanks John! I use a fractal ax8 for RUclips. With a Freidman be setting and Friedman impulse responses. I put my delay and verb in through protools. 🤟🏻
Hey Marty! I watched your buddies documentary yesterday. The 1st 30 years of Steve Vai. I must say it was rather good. He is a very smart man, that Stevie is.
It's a good documentary. That guy that made it actually got to work with Steve on getting all that old Info together. He did a really nice job. I thought the story about eating cat food was hilarious. 😂😂

Awesome man, glad to hear! Well... it's an 81 Custom. Has 498t And a 490r in it. Ive had it for about 6 years now. A friend of mine in Nashville collects Les Pauls and only likes flame tops. He had this one and didn't want it....so I swapped a 2012 Lp flame top for it. It's my heaviest guitar. Weighs almost 11 pounds. I do believe there is a video on my channel on it from maybe a year ago? She's a great guitar. 😎🤟🏻

Hey Kevin. Thanks man. I am running a Fractal Ax8. I have it on a Friedman BE100 amp setting with a stereo Friedman IR (I think is from ML labs??). The IR's are great in the fractal too. I run stereo into pro tools. For FX I could use the fractal FX but instead I add them in pro tools in case I want to take them out later or add more. I basically just use a stereo chorus, delay and reverb. Sometimes I don't use a chorus depending on the song. It makes things easy and sonically nice for RUclips.

Holy shit dude are you wearing a hoovies garage shirt? Tyler's a great guy fun channel for years. Amazing what he's able to acquire and of course bring it over to the car wizard to fix LOL.
Yep. I love Hoovie's content. It's fun to watch, and I agree ... he seems to be a great guy and is surrounded by some fun friends too. The car wizard! Love that guy too. Ever check out car trek with Tavarish, Tyler and Ed? I'm sure you have. It's a fun series.
@@Ranch5150SkinWalker car trek couple of times. I'm on the road 3 weeks at a time 33 years rolling these 18 so I try to catch up on things that interest me and I subscribe to as time allows. Although I can't always watch everything from everybody as much as I would like.
@@Ranch5150SkinWalker well of course 33 years of doing this that's all I run into anymore. shame on the mess.

Phil is an amazing writer & player, he contributed to all songs on pyromania & wrote the iconic solos on Rock Rock, Stagefright, Photograph, Foolin & Rock of Ages, unbelievably good solos, Phil is awesome
Hello, fan! Thanks for reaching out congratulation 🎁🎊🎉You Won a (Flying guitar )it’s for your Christmas Cheerful send a message above to acknowledge your prize🎁❤!!
I used to play it different. But the unison B sound more accurate. I once saw Phil play this kick in person and he moved up and it weirddd me out. I never forgot that so I relearned it and it took me a while to get this fingering down. Sometimes I play it A sus.2 and standard f major 7 positions.
@@Ranch5150SkinWalker interesting... I only ask, because here ruclips.net/video/fxrEZ_MvDyg/видео.html , at 6:47 he appears to cross pick the last 3 notes of the intro... (Which is how I also believe Steve played it, from the videos I've been able to find) e -0 B------0 G---5 Could be wrong on that, but the only slide I see is when he moves up from 4 to 5 on G with his pinky, right before those last 3 notes.

Steve Clark and Pete Willis were a great duo in layering their parts. After this album your lessons are on, obviously it wasn't the same band and I lost interest. But great lessons. Honorable mentions Rock Brigade, Wasted, Sorrow is a Woman.
Thanks for the comment man, I appreciate it. Yeh they changed a lot after Pyromania. I think hysteria is amazing. But it sure is polished. The Mutt Lange grip got em. Which commercially was the best thing that could have happened for them. But it was a different sound than the beginning. After Hysteria, adrenaline was so so. I didn't mind it so much... but it was kinda weak. After that... well... Just odd. 😎🥂
Hello, fan! Thanks for reaching out congratulation 🎁🎊🎉You Won a (Flying guitar )it’s for your Christmas Cheerful send a message above to acknowledge your prize🎁❤....
Def Leppard's best work was when Steve Clark was alive & in the band. Not a huge fan of Phil Collen, especially after I saw DL in 2007 and Vivian Campbell took a back seat to Phil during any shredding parts. Meanwhile, anyone who's ever played Dio knows that Vivian can run circles around Phil. I get that Vivian was there to play like Steve, who wasn't a big shredder. But it was still a bummer to see Vivian let Phil play the guitar hero.
I agree. Big Steve Clark fan here. Steve was a songwriter and a riff master. His style defined the band and laid the foundation. Not disputing what you say at all here... but Interestingly enough, I have heard some interviews with Vivian in the recent past where he tries to shed himself from the "shred" image and has said he is really not a shredder as more of a blues guy. He has referred to his Dio solos as tricks. He's probably being humble. He seems like a really down to earth dude. I've met Phil before. He's a great guy too. We chatted about our love for the guitar work of Andy Summers and the Police. Phil is just cut from another piece of the carpet than Steve. Steve Clark was the bomb man. 😎🤟🏻
@@Ranch5150SkinWalker Thanks for sharing all of that Marty. I was not aware of Vivian's views about shredding. It seems hard to believe. My favorite solo of his is Don't Talk To Strangers as it has the perfect shred/blues mix. Plus you get a wonderful "Protect Your Soul" scream by RJD at the climax. That said, I won't be so hard on Phil going forward. It was largely due to my expectations of Dio-VC, instead of DL-VC at that 07 show. Keep up the good work Marty. And there's no shame in branching out with some Warren DiMartini, Jake E Lee & John Sykes - 3 of my favorites behind EVH.
The songs notes are not correct, nor are they being fretted properly. But if this is what you want to teach people more power to you. The songs don’t have to be played just like Steve and Phil. It’s your version, not the correct version.
Yeh. There's a few ways to do it. I change my mind a lot. Lol. 😂😂. Please share your video so I can learn a new way. I would love to see others for sure!
too late for love was my favorite song on the album,besides billies got a gun.i literally wore out 2 cassettes and got this album at launch before the radio murdered it with overkill. the second part in A sounds completely different than you are playing it.check this out for reference..... ruclips.net/video/L8glC-FB6Pw/видео.html at the 2 minute mark,sounds dead on,this is how ive always played it as well. ...that les paul is pure unadulterated sexy and makes me miss my 72 lpc and jcm 800 100 watt stack..................your tone,phrasing all perfect
Marty could you include the patch or fractal 8 settings for your tones when making your videos? Just a quick screen shot would do, half the battle is getting the right tone and you seem to hit the nail on the head every time.m with the tone, it would be so helpful.
@@Ranch5150SkinWalker wow two flying guitars in one week, maybe I should put the lottery on, I seem to be in a winning streak🤣🤣🤣 you building these in your garage Marty?🤣🤣
Go back one album to 1981, High N Dry is easily their best and hardest rockin album. A masterpiece of raw rock.

As a matter of fact, if you want a more bassier sound, you can have the anchor finger include the E (5th string on 7th fret) and/or the open E 6th string. The second chord requires that you rock that ring finger up to just hold the 4th string on the 9th and add the middle finger to the 3rd string 8th fret. The third chord is made by just moving that ring finger down to the 3rd string on the 9th fret. The fourth chord is to just play that anchor (bared 3rd and 4th strings on the 7th) . I also like to add 2nd string 10th fret with my pinky.
Now as we get into the song I tend to let the tip of my first finger in that anchor position touch the 5th string to mute it and on occasion chug a bit on that open 6th E string.
Enjoy!
Nice tips and suggestions my friend. 😎☮️
That was pretty awesome man! Sick tone. Very crunchy and airy. Are you going into and amp & mic cab or Sims? I dig the Custom also. Is it a ‘70s?
Cheers. 🤘🏼
Thanks John! I use a fractal ax8 for RUclips. With a Freidman be setting and Friedman impulse responses. I put my delay and verb in through protools. 🤟🏻
Hey Marty! I watched your buddies documentary yesterday. The 1st 30 years of Steve Vai. I must say it was rather good. He is a very smart man, that Stevie is.
It's a good documentary. That guy that made it actually got to work with Steve on getting all that old Info together. He did a really nice job. I thought the story about eating cat food was hilarious. 😂😂

Loving these Def Leppard riffs! I learned a couple new things. Thank you! What's the backstory of that gorgeous weathered LP?
Awesome man, glad to hear! Well... it's an 81 Custom. Has 498t And a 490r in it. Ive had it for about 6 years now. A friend of mine in Nashville collects Les Pauls and only likes flame tops. He had this one and didn't want it....so I swapped a 2012 Lp flame top for it. It's my heaviest guitar. Weighs almost 11 pounds.
I do believe there is a video on my channel on it from maybe a year ago? She's a great guitar. 😎🤟🏻
@@Ranch5150SkinWalker Looks super cool and sound amazing. That is a heavy guitar! Wow! I'll have to check out your video about it. Thanks for the info!! Cheers.

Aloha Marty! Braddah, I can say the same thing for every video you do….You have MOJO in da fingahs, great guitar technique, awesome amp tone, excellent note articulation and execution with tasty embellishments. Furthermore, your verbal instruction and phrasing of what you want to say is excellent with the english language….seriously, it’s not broken down and slangy…..a lot of people out there really have lousy speaking skills but your grammar is perfect as an instructor. Brah….You get’em brah….you know how fo’ talk da kine teacher kine stuff! Mahalo nui loa Marty, for sharing your time with us. Aloha….
Thanks my friend! I really appreciate that. It means the world to me 😎🎵🎵🎵🖤
What gear ? That tone is amazing ?
the bridge on too late isnt right well its partial right so you start of it is right then ending isnt right i'll try to get a video of it up if your interested sorry its a song ive just been tunneled on lol
You always have great tone. Do you have a Spark Amp and if so, any links to your presets? Thanks!
Hey Kevin. Thanks man. I am running a Fractal Ax8. I have it on a Friedman BE100 amp setting with a stereo Friedman IR (I think is from ML labs??). The IR's are great in the fractal too. I run stereo into pro tools.
For FX I could use the fractal FX but instead I add them in pro tools in case I want to take them out later or add more.
I basically just use a stereo chorus, delay and reverb. Sometimes I don't use a chorus depending on the song.
It makes things easy and sonically nice for RUclips.

Are you pla1ying thru the Friedman or the AX8 on this vid?
Ax8. I use it exclusively for RUclips. Unless I am doing an amp demo. It's so consistent and also for production purposes it's easier. 👍

I hit the 4 twice than go to the 3 part.
On Foolin': Why would you play 5-4 on the G instead of 5G - 0B? 🤔
I used to play it different. But the unison B sound more accurate. I once saw Phil play this kick in person and he moved up and it weirddd me out. I never forgot that so I relearned it and it took me a while to get this fingering down. Sometimes I play it A sus.2 and standard f major 7 positions.
@@Ranch5150SkinWalker interesting...
I only ask, because here ruclips.net/video/fxrEZ_MvDyg/видео.html , at 6:47 he appears to cross pick the last 3 notes of the intro... (Which is how I also believe Steve played it, from the videos I've been able to find)
e -0
B------0
G---5
Could be wrong on that, but the only slide I see is when he moves up from 4 to 5 on G with his pinky, right before those last 3 notes.
Thanks for the reply!
@@MH3GL interesting! I go by ear mostly. And then try to break bad habits of playing stuff wrong for years. So hard to reprogram. 😩
Pyromania is their best. So much better than Hysteria
Your playing foolin wrong. But over all pretty awesome.
Not sure man. I play it couple different ways and this is the closest to my ears to the record. 🤷

Steve Clark and Pete Willis were a great duo in layering their parts. After this album your lessons are on, obviously it wasn't the same band and I lost interest.
But great lessons. Honorable mentions Rock Brigade, Wasted, Sorrow is a Woman.
Thanks for the comment man, I appreciate it. Yeh they changed a lot after Pyromania. I think hysteria is amazing. But it sure is polished. The Mutt Lange grip got em. Which commercially was the best thing that could have happened for them. But it was a different sound than the beginning. After Hysteria, adrenaline was so so. I didn't mind it so much... but it was kinda weak. After that... well... Just odd. 😎🥂

Def Leppard's best work was when Steve Clark was alive & in the band. Not a huge fan of Phil Collen, especially after I saw DL in 2007 and Vivian Campbell took a back seat to Phil during any shredding parts. Meanwhile, anyone who's ever played Dio knows that Vivian can run circles around Phil. I get that Vivian was there to play like Steve, who wasn't a big shredder. But it was still a bummer to see Vivian let Phil play the guitar hero.
I agree. Big Steve Clark fan here. Steve was a songwriter and a riff master. His style defined the band and laid the foundation. Not disputing what you say at all here... but Interestingly enough, I have heard some interviews with Vivian in the recent past where he tries to shed himself from the "shred" image and has said he is really not a shredder as more of a blues guy. He has referred to his Dio solos as tricks. He's probably being humble. He seems like a really down to earth dude. I've met Phil before. He's a great guy too. We chatted about our love for the guitar work of Andy Summers and the Police. Phil is just cut from another piece of the carpet than Steve. Steve Clark was the bomb man. 😎🤟🏻
@@Ranch5150SkinWalker Thanks for sharing all of that Marty. I was not aware of Vivian's views about shredding. It seems hard to believe. My favorite solo of his is Don't Talk To Strangers as it has the perfect shred/blues mix. Plus you get a wonderful "Protect Your Soul" scream by RJD at the climax. That said, I won't be so hard on Phil going forward. It was largely due to my expectations of Dio-VC, instead of DL-VC at that 07 show. Keep up the good work Marty. And there's no shame in branching out with some Warren DiMartini, Jake E Lee & John Sykes - 3 of my favorites behind EVH.
Cool. Subbed. LP man myself.
Awesome. Thanks so much man! 😎
The songs notes are not correct, nor are they being fretted properly. But if this is what you want to teach people more power to you. The songs don’t have to be played just like Steve and Phil. It’s your version, not the correct version.
Thanks for watching! 😎🎵🎵
You are playing the intro to Foolin wrong.
Yeh. There's a few ways to do it. I change my mind a lot. Lol. 😂😂. Please share your video so I can learn a new way. I would love to see others for sure!
Let it go is fun
too late for love was my favorite song on the album,besides billies got a gun.i literally wore out 2 cassettes and got this album at launch before the radio murdered it with overkill.
the second part in A sounds completely different than you are playing it.check this out for reference.....
ruclips.net/video/L8glC-FB6Pw/видео.html at the 2 minute mark,sounds dead on,this is how ive always played it as well.
...that les paul is pure unadulterated sexy and makes me miss my 72 lpc and jcm 800 100 watt stack..................your tone,phrasing all perfect
Thanks man!! Oh yes. Billy's got a gun! Great tune. 🤟🏻
Marty could you include the patch or fractal 8 settings for your tones when making your videos? Just a quick screen shot would do, half the battle is getting the right tone and you seem to hit the nail on the head every time.m with the tone, it would be so helpful.
Yeh I can start including that!
