      That’s the thing about hair band music. To be a guitarist in the genre, you had to have a complete mastery of the instrument. Along comes Cobain with his rudimentary skills, and the “best” lead guitarist of grunge (Pearl Jam) had a modest collection of pentatonic licks that could be copied by anyone in their first year of playing.

The song is in 4/4, but like The Edge made famous in U2, Slash used the trick where the echoes repeat in 3/4 in a sense (triplet delay). This creates a very rhythmic effect where the repeats happen on the "off-beats," and it makes something that is incredibly easy to play and on the beat sound much more rhythmically complex.

  • @JonathanWilder-cg2lx
    @JonathanWilder-cg2lx Год назад +14

    Just about every single guitarist gets this one wrong.
    So in the VERY beginning, there is a delay. You're fretting the 4th fret G string, while alternate picking between the G and B strings a few times, then letting the delay trail off.
    Somewhere, guitarists got it in their head that the pattern which follows this part (G 4th/2nd fret, D 4th/2nd fret, etc etc) is ALSO played with that delay, and the sound you're hearing is that same delay repeating the notes of that pattern.
    This is completely wrong.
    Telltale signs of this was that repeating B drone note in between the notes within that pattern that was never struck in the places it would have had to have been struck in order for the delay to continuously repeat the drone note like that. Also, you can clearly hear in the recording the dithering that's present when the delay is active, then the guitar sound on this part becomes more direct as the delay is switched off.
    Taking the pattern into context, then realizing it was actually that pattern, but with the open B string struck in between each note...that was the secret.
    I've tried to explain this to damn near every guitarist I know, only to get met with push back (no, it's that delay, you don't know what you're talking about). Funny how when I play it, it sounds exactly like the record. Even better now that we have a video coming straight from the horse's mouth confirming what I've known all along.
    It is a difficult picking pattern to master, but once you do, that song becomes so fun to play just for that part alone.

It's gotten a lot better since RUclips made guitar tricks and secrets an open source, free use, available to everyone resource. I understand it's like learning how magicians pull off their tricks and then standing in the back of the venue loudly proclaiming that "Oh, I know exactly how he did that." "It's really quite simple." "Here, I'll show you all how it's done," haha! But, so what if there are 20 million guitar players that can play circles around me, they didn't come up with my hook on the one hit wonder song that's still paying my rent after all these years. It's not all about you, Mr. Guitar God, you know who you are, it's about what sounds good to the folks who buy tickets and support our dwindling venues.

    • @thekidtrey1949
      @thekidtrey1949 Год назад +9

      A delay pedal 😂 yes he uses one on the record but he still alternate picks like he shows here, the delay pedal is only used to give the riff an echo. The alternate picking part is actually a bit tough

    • @Bullet44
      @Bullet44 Год назад +14

      Sure, anyone can play it. If you want to make it sound identical, that's another story. I've been playing for almost 10 years, and in that time, you figure out that there is SO MUCH more to a riff than just being able to play it...

    • @EndlngAnthem
      @EndlngAnthem Год назад +1

      Its not an easy riff. In fact slash himself plays it different from the studio recording. He does the alternate picking part about 6 times in the intro then the last 3 times hes only hitting single strings in the recording. The timing is also difficult because it sounds quicker in the stuido recording than it actually is played, it sounds quicker because they used the delay on an SRV 2000 rack unit.
      When he plays it live, and even here hes playing it faster than the recording.

    • @LewisLivingLife
      @LewisLivingLife Год назад

      Most likely played the riff wrong, and it never sounded like the actual riff, that slash plays

    • @EndlngAnthem
      @EndlngAnthem Год назад

      @@LewisLivingLife its a basic riff as far as notes are concerned, it takes a bit of practice to get down. What makes it difficult is the sliding on the initial note (this makes a difference), speed of the alternate picking, delay gear used (roland srv 2000 was used on the recording), tone (a marshall with a 36 mod was used). All of the above are why its difficult to replicate that intro.
