AC/DC - Long Way To The Top Guitar lesson tutorial - Easy 3 chord Rock song

▶ www.andyguitar.co.uk/ ◀ ALL Andy's exclusive videos & courses
This lesson shows you how to play 'It's A Long Way To The Top' by AC/DC. The chorus to this is simple enough, but there's a real trick to get the Malcolm Young ac/dc rhythm sound.
I did my first EVER KZbin video about how to platy like Malcolm as I'm a huge fan. The trick is, Malcolm fills in any gaps (silence) in the guitar playing with 8th strums that are heavily palm muted to the point of it just being string noise. This gives the guitar a greater sense of rhythm, particularity effective when the part is played alone (i.e. without loud drums) A great string to your bow for all budding rhythm guitarists no matter what style you play!

[@Chrisorocks]

Lovely thanks Andy

[@strummerman7174]

Malcolm used an upstroke instead of the downstroke for the second A chord, it' still the same rhythm but just adds a subtle difference in feel. (It's a swing thing :) )

[@licksnkicks1166]

[@SCFCJack14]

And is there any way you could do a quick section on setting the amp up to get the tight sound?

[@glynjames5948]

Hi Andy great beginner lesson but I say this every time a beginner probably hasn’t a clue how to get the tones especially that bag pipe tone surely you guys could just take a few seconds to explain what your using ? Thanks again hope to get a reply .glyn.

[@harrisonollierhobbies3187]

can u do beating around the bush, also by AC/DC, plz?

[@srenasmussen1542]

Yes please!

[@penprop01]

[@xavpil2]

You should count the beats. It’d help a lot for this type of songs. Otherwise great video

[@billhoop281]

[@jcers]

Harry Chapman yea it’s what they’re playing when the credits are rolling

[@darrylt1031]

[@jonathanhou8712]

Around 9:30, I physically cannot strum those three strings at once with that finger placement (index finger on B and e, middle finger on G) without muting one string. Is there any other way to play that?

[@robinsonterang5819]

[@mikebyrnes4299]

How do you set your amp for this sound?

[@andycrowley]

Plug in an SG and it's 99% of the way there

[@bobv5806]

Nice touch with the SG

[@jephwahlretrogames9245]

They actually tune flat and play in B if I'm not mistaken.

[@irishninja19801]

Actually, the recording is a half-step sharp.

[@sampeck6826]
