    In this Wish You Were Here guitar lesson we are gonna break down all of the classic guitar parts performed by David Gilmour on this classic Pink Floyd song.
    Wish You Were Here is widely considered one of the greatest acoustic classic rock songs of all time and with good reason. It starts off with an instantly identifiable guitar riff originally played on a 12-string acoustic guitar recorded to sound like it is being played through a cheap car stereo.
    From there Wish You Were Here develops into a song containing arpeggiated picking, chord strums, and a bunch of acoustic guitar soloing.
    In this Wish You Were Here guitar lesson I will show you not only the intro solo, but also the pedal steel guitar solo heard later in the tune. However, I will arrange this solo so you can play it just fine on a standard tuned acoustic guitar.
    I will also tackle all the soloing David Gilmour does towards the end of the song while he is scat singing.
    Overall, I think learning this classic Pink Floyd song will really help develop those acoustic soloing chops. It will certainly gets those calluses in shape.
    Have fun guys! Carl..

    Finally, someone who demonstrates what we are going to learn *before* the actual lesson. How often do I end up watching a few minutes of a video that teaches me stuff I never actually wanted to play (alternative/bad arrangements, simplified versions, the wrong song... you name it). Nice lesson!

    This is great stuff - I have played this tune for 20+ years and had always missed those base notes in the verse part. The moment I heard you play it, I heard right away what I had been missing all this time.
    Great Work!

  • @renskevanengelen600
    @renskevanengelen600 6 лет назад

    Thanks for this movie, you explain really well :) Maybe it's just me, but I think that in the intro, when you 'walk' the little bass line back down on your guitar, it actually starts with the G string played open. So G (open), D (2nd fret), D (open). The second time around I hear it as D (2nd fret), G (open), D (2nd fret), D (open).
