Glad I found your demonstration and history regarding the method to play that riff so fast. There's many different ways people play it. I evolved into the method you show and was gratified to see it's what became the standard method for Andy. I'm almost up to speed. Great classic guitar riff the 80's.
Hiya..agree with you re Andy Summers. Really interesting guitar player. Always loved his unique sound. He really created that Police sound. Of course, with the Copeland's un rocky drumming..John F
Thank you I Love your approach to teaching a song. Very straight forward and no BS. You play it and give the necessary comments and tips and show the tab. I am glad I found your channel.
✅ Love your channel Howard , I remember you from your solo albums back in the day . I think we might have been in some of the same Guitar mags together in those Spotlight and Resume Columns . Good Times ! Glad to see you doing some ANDY SUMMERS ! Would love to see you break down and play EVERY LITTLE THING SHE DOES IS MAGIC …. And …. DONT STAND SO CLOSE TO ME ….. All the best to you ! Cheers 🎸
How come I only came across your channel now?!?! Subscribed and a lot of backlog to check! And what abou a lesson on those harmonics? Brilliant stuff ;)
Wait, what? The lesson's over? I need to rewind and pay attention next time around. I too play this catchy tune in our lineup and judging from the lesser amount of tomatoes thrown during our set I think I'm improving. I came here from your excellent Sun King lesson but I better be careful I don't bite bigger than I can chew or spit more than I can launch or however the saying goes........!

When you break the songs down I really like them better. It could be you? Or the separation from other instruments, I’m voting for you. Thanks 👍
You are awsome budy
Very nice, you are a natural
Great mate cheers.
Great lesson. How about "Invisible Sun"? Thanks for always posting interesting song lessons.
More Police is definitely on the way :-)
Seems like Andy S likes this version as seen on Rick Beato recent interview with him
Great Howard. Can you do solo for nobody’s fault but mine?
Yeah... I've gotta get to that one!
thanks
I always wanted to play this , but it's such a stretch.
Will use your version. Is it the same notes as the first version ?
Yes - it's all the same notes. Thanx for watching
EXceLLEnT
god job!! you use string 0.10?
??
Hi - I use .09 thru .42 Ernie Ball
pas facile j ai longtemps chercher ces accords de message in the bottle .Andy na pas fait dans le simple . the police forever
For those who cannot stretch, will single strums work? Asking for a friend.
I'm all for whatever works. There is always more than one way :-)
Yeah I have small hand syndrome and this song is not for players like me
Impossible... I have large hands but cannot get my pinky to reach the third notes or slide.. Kills my wrist too.
What guitar is that?
Hi - it's an American Fender Telecaster
