Man I truly miss the 80's. There were so many great bands and just about all of them had a guitar virtuoso. It is that era that made me want to play guitar in the first place so it would make sense that some of those bands still resonate with me. Of all of them, I would say Def Leppard is my favorite.
In this Photograph guitar lesson video, I will show you how to play all of this Def Leppard classic note-for-note. "Photograph" is many Def Leppard fan's favorite song because of the driving guitar riffs, melodic soloing and unbelievable vocal harmonies.
In the first video lesson I will tackle all of the riffs and chords played by guitarists Steve Clark and Phil Collen. The opening riff is one of the most identifiable of the era so you will want to make sure to get it right! :) There is actually a slight rhythm variation in this riff that differs between the intro and verse. I think a lot of guitar players that I see play "Photograph" miss this variation. In any case, I will show you how to easily play both versions of this riff.
The pre-chorus uses a lot of open power chords in a very tight AC/DC rhythm style. The chord changes happen fast and the rhythm has to be very precise.
The chorus has a very unique riff that requires special attention to a couple of different elements. First, you will want to make sure your fingers are properly arched so the open G string can always ring out. Second, you will need to slightly mute some of these arpeggiated notes in order for them to pop-out over the mix. It only requires a very very slight mute though.
In the second video lesson I will demonstrate both the main guitar solo and outro solo as played by Phil Collen. The main solo is full of some really nice melodic playing with a few flashy guitar licks thrown in for good measure. This is a great solo to analyze if you want to know how to write a great guitar solo. There is a definitive beginning, middle and end which makes for a very complete musical statement and not just a bunch of random guitar licks thrown together.
The outro solo is similar in that is contains mostly melodic content with a few fast licks. You will still need to make sure you get those bends in tune though!
So have fun learning this incredible song from the legendary Def Leppard!
Carl...
its more than just a guitar lesson, its a chill hang with the technically sound and emotionally constrained Downtown Carl Brown.
You seriously are a great teacher. Thank you so much for these videos, they have re-sparked my love for playing the guitar and I can't thank you enough
Takes me back to the glory days of the zany 80s! Thank you so much for sharing this, and all of your amazingly accurate and thorough lessons! Cheers!
Do the solo Steve Clark did after the “I wanna touch you” part. Full of heart.
Starts at 4:54. Agree, full of heart.
His outro solo on the Hysteria tour was some of my favorite guitar playing ever. I'm sure the video is on here somewhere. It just took it to another level.
Greattt!!! How about Armageddon it? PLEASE??
Such a great teacher and video. This is my new favorite solo.
Thanks Carl!
An iconic rock song of the early 1980's. Great lesson!
I noticed that are no guitar lessons with any songs by The Doors on your channel...People Are Strange would be a good choice if you decided to go that route in the future. Robby almost always played in a Flamenco style of picking...so that would add a different element to the lesson. Much appreciation!
Good job Carl Brown!
Now, get some sleep.
:)
My favourite song
Why doesn't this video have a million likes?
badass....another great job.......1/4 step down.....not quite a 1/2.... a lot of Def stuff is that way....waiting for you to throw me under the bus on this one too Carl....lol.....
Hey, this is a great lesson! Can you please do Def Leppard's 2012 Acoustic Medley?
Would love for you to do hysteria. Thank you for all the videos!
Hey could you do through the fire and flames? the whole song please?
I need to learn how to play fast for those "double time" parts in the solo. That takes real skill and precision. What type of guitar and gauge strings are you using?
The tuning in this video is off from the recorded version of Photograph, the fretwork is great and accurate though. Just for people trying to learn this and can't quite figure out why it's sounding off - this is why.
Hey Carl..how bout' Zakk's Farewell Ballad?give it a shot man..Haha
Hey, could you please do a lesson on dirty deeds done dirt cheap by AC/DC
GuitarLessons365Song What pedals are you using here?
thanks so damn much m8,btw what kind of effects do you use?
i think you do a geat job but I am not hearing that last lick right before the fade. Its sounds different from what you are playing with the pull offs.
is the alternate picking right for the last lick in the first solo????
C'mon if u can do patience u can do the ending solo of november rain pleasee :(
Great lesson! I used your tips from GL365 academy: Guitar technique: Mastering Difficult Licks to learn those fast licks. What's the tuning on this song? I sounds like 1/2 step down but most of the Def Leppard stuff I've played has been standard tuning. Thanks, and I love the GL365 academy.
Thanks Rohan, I am glad you like that new lesson series in the academy. I plan on adding a more to it as well. The thing for this is Eb tuning on the original recording I believe :)
I can't do the part at 2:28 for the life of me. Whenever I run into this pattern on any song I'm pretty much stuck
ajmataj I feel you man...I can do every single other note of the solo except thay lick right there😤
There's gotta be a technique I'm stuck there as well lol
