My Skid Row Playlist! • Skid Row
In this Monkey Business guitar lesson video, I will show you how to play this absolutely crushing track from Skid Row off of their Slave To The Grind album note-for-note.
The tuning is standard tuning, E A D G B E.
There are plenty of challenges when playing "Monkey Business". It seems that all of the heavy riff riffs require you to not only be able to lock into a tight groove, but also play lots of fills thrown in around that groove that can be difficult to jump in and out of.
For the opening clean guitar section, guitarist Dave "Snake" Sabo uses hybrid picking to make the double-stops have sort of a spank to them. If you have never attempted hybrid picking before, this riff is a great place to start. He is then joined for all the heavy riffs by guitarist Scotti Hill.
Probably the most challenging rhythm guitar section of the entire song is the clean bridge section. Everything seems to be moving at a million miles an hour and it can be a big challenge to get all of the notes under your fingers at tempo.
I will also cover Snake's guitar solo note-for-note. Once again, there are some big challenges here. I will take you through the entire solo phrase-by-phrase!
Have fun learning this one and try not to hold your breath for the entire song. Haha!! Carl...

Great lesson as always Carl! I don’t think you’ve ever done a lesson on a Styx song? 🤔
Yeah you should do a lesson on The Grand Illusion, particularly the solo.
This was my favorite band for a decade. Sebastian Bach pulled me on stage, after stage diving the song before! I got to meet the band on stage and do the into vocally with Bach. He pointed to the crowd right before distortion and I jumped when it kicked in!! The palladium in las Vegas early 90’s! I wish we could get a reunion tour but unfortunately Rachel and Bas won’t ever get along! Thank you for years of awesome lessons!!
That must have been crazy!
I absolutely love Skid Row! Did not expect to see them here, but I am very glad!
I was not expecting this either I’m glad he did this one!
Carl is hands-down the best instructor on RUclips, the angles he captures and the way he breaks each song into sections is absolutely perfect for my learning style. And I have to say... I never thought I would see him wield a guitar with a double-locking trem system!! I love it!!!
Yes sir!!! Please do more Skid Row lessons!!!
What makes Skid Row stands out from other hard rock bands is having 2 killer guitar players, Snake and Scotti are 50/50 on guitar duties rhythm and lead. This lesson is way overdue but I'm glad it's finally here. 😁
I'd worked a lot with both Scotti Hill's and Snake's pretty excellent separate videos on Gibson TV, but I gotta say Carl just got me a lot further down the road with this awesome song. Much appreciated, man, you're really killing it!
Slave to the grind if you are looking for another Skid Row lesson, All Your lessons are awesome 😎 🎸
Such a badass song. I’m a total beginner, but I spend crazy amounts time time watching your videos and can actually play a little thanks to you. Outstanding
It’s always a treat whenever you teach a Hair Metal song. Love this.
This song kicks ass. Great riffs and some massive cowbell in it. It's the perfect combo. Thanks Carl.
Best guitar cover channel on You Tube
Absolute favorite Skid Row tune.
Carl having a blast with this one, and he's right if you're not groovin with this tune you're dead...🤘🤘
Such a great opening riff. One of my all time favs. So glad your video came up in my feed while it’s still fresh!!! Great play through 💰
I never would have thought you’d have done this lesson but I’m so glad you did!! I’m absolutely shocked this is in standard it’s so heavy
I actually expected it to be thr 1st entry I saw when I searched it, and boom, it was. Carl always delivers the rock.
I always love it when Carl gets extra enthusiastic!! Good stuff! I also share the sentiment on the snubbing of standard tuning, people should know you can actually write great songs in standard tuning!
Yes! This song has such a great groove! Underrated band for sure.
Ps - love the finish on the new axe!
Carl on fire here..calls out anyone who doesn't rock to this as dysfunctional, and mocks the absence of hard rock in standard tuning currently. Carl for the win!
no way. ive been waiting for this since the i remember you lesson, and i randomly checked today and here it is. LETS GOO
Thank you Carl- this is one of the songs I have been waiting on someone to teach. Fantastic!
Awesome lesson Carl...!!!👍✌️🤘
My new singer tells me he can sing this perfectly, so I just had to learn this.!!!

Brother. You read my mind LOL. I just started this one yesterday. Thank God for 365

I just finished your youth gone wild lesson:) This is the cherry on top
I love the intro the best. They played this at the Wembley gig that you can find on yt
Im only here for that piece of art guitar. What a gem!
Fancy doing this lesson with a guitar with that fancy inlay on the fretboard, makes it a pain in the ass to follow without clear fret markers
what a kickass tune here Carl....killer!!!!!!
Carl you definitely are not an idiot, I want to join your academy but I had a few questions to ask you I have to go to work now but I will text you back again soon thank you and I appreciate everything you do
I know this is a long shot, but PLEASE do an Anthrax song. You have not done any yet, but have done all of the other three "big four" metal bands. Please! Prepare for me to comment this on every video you put out moving forward :) Also, thanks for what you do, you have been a big help to me and I appreciate you!
hello good morning.I live in Brazil .I don't speak english .I've been studying guitar for a few years.I learned many more things with you.I am grateful for that.More now this guitar you are using is very difficult to see the notes.it is full of drawings on the arm.if I have a contract with Ibanez, I understand. if you don't go back to your fender or the other black one you have. from your aloof student… thanks for everything. a hug!!!!
Love that song! One of their best! And love that ibanez your jamming on!!!🤘
