GL and Dokken are my favorite guitar player and hair band from the 80s. No ??. I graduated in 87 and started playing in 85 and still play to this day. Im definitely impressed. You nailed the shit outta this like you do all of his solos. Killer playing. Love it.

AWESOME as ALWAYS JAY/Mr. SCARY/PARMAR. One of my favorite Lynch leads. Thanks Jay!!!

[@jayguitar]

You're very very kind my friend! Very much appreciate it. It was really fun playing this one! :)

[@theguitarvirtuosoforgod1152]

Learning one of George’s solos is definitely not easy but it’s so worth it. I believe studying his solos will improve my skill exponentially. I’m sure it will take some time to master this one. Better pack a lunch 😂

[@jayguitar]

You're absolutely right Kirk. Thats where I learnt a lot of my solo skills because the solos our favourite players create have already been composed, and by studying how they piece them together, which licks they pick, where they pause, where they speed up, etc, gives us a lot of info and lessons :) Glad you enjoyed it man! Have an amazing day!

[@theguitarvirtuosoforgod1152]

Jay Parmar Thanks for the helpful advice. I pray that you be well and blessed in Jesus name 😊

[@discokillers8674]

[@rhettcutshaver3741]

I've been a Lynch fan since I first heard Dokken around '85. Your channel is awesome and I've picked up quite a few tricks from watching these tutorials. You do a really great job on nailing his nuances. How do you not have more subs?

[@jayguitar]

Thanks so much dude! Much much appreciated - and I'm really glad that the videos have been of help!!! Much more to come :) Subs are going up every day so just a matter of time my friend - I'm grateful for everybody who is watching and enjoying :) Enjoy and have an amazing day :)

[@jayguitar]

Hey Barry, thank you so so much my friend! That means a lot to me and I very much appreciate it. Love doing the videos and really glad that I'm able to bring them to you :) Enjoy and have and excellent week buddy!!! :)

[@Sam07989]

Eddie Van Halen also played a very similar ascending lick and it’s just hard as hell.

[@armoredmetalhead1257]

Hey Jay when you are going to do the outro solo of this song? Imo is just as awesome as the solo.👍👍

[@jayguitar]

Hey dude, I'm afraid I stopped doing Lynch Lycks a little over 3 years ago now and won't be doing any more 😊 🙏 Enjoy the others that are on my channel 🙏 Have an amazing day!

[@angels77100]

I agree. When I bought Tooth n' Nail and listened to this track it wasn't until Lynch played the outro solo that I was blown away and had to keep playing it back on repeat. The outro solo was what got me hooked on Lynch.

[@warpfac101]

Take me back where I came from!

[@jayguitar]

Yay!!!! Gerat lyrics! It was one of the most fun clips to do for the GL35 video - loved how those videos turned out!!! :) Have an excellent day Dennis :)

You're welcome 😊 Glad you enjoyed it and it helped Colin. Have an amazing day man!

[@TylerGuitar5617]

Great lesson. Anywhere I can find the backtrack??? Can't find it on KZbin.

[@faustoa.g2824]

hey jay , awesome!!! backing track pls!? :)

[@jayguitar]

Thanks so much Fabiano! Much appreciated 🙏 I'm afraid I don't have a distribution license for the backing track - I created it myself. This is how I did it 😊 kzbin.info/www/bejne/oKXIf5uchsuDbpI - Hope that helps 😊 Have an amazing day man!

[@Boombergtastic]

Very cool, I love the delay. Anyway you can tell me the settings? And which delay model you used, etc...

[@jayguitar]

Thanks dude! So for recording I use the Soundtoys Echoboy delay - default Echoplex setting from the presets, then I just mix until it sounds right (usually around 25% to 30% mix). On the explanation part I think I was still using the POD HD at that time. I was using the analog delay with modulation - modulation switched off - 470ms delay, 25%-30% mix and feedback. Hope that helps! Have an amazing day!!!

[@SuperSaifal]

Can you please upload a backing track for this.. One with vocals.

[@therockstar7443]

hey bro can i make a much needed request for Turn on the action thanks BTW hell of a job on solo

[@jayguitar]

Hey Rocky, I'm afraid I no longer do Lynch Lycks - happy to teach via private lessons 121/skype/facetime though - www.brightonguitarguru.co.uk - enjoy and have a great day :)

[@chrishastings6312]

Thanks Jay, for breaking down this amazing solo piece by piece, yard by yard. This is one of those most loved solos that was ever done. I remember you from back in the Dojo days. Seeing how great you have come as a guitar player. I bought your Strange Days solo album, which is awesome! You and Tony Fuentes, are doing a lot of great work out there. I watched some Gus G interviews with Chris Broderick as well. Also some Ethan Brosh kzbin.info/www/bejne/e2q9pHaVmcyGbrc , material. That whole trading solos was just awesome to watch between him and George. I only heard it on the album, but to see them live playing this was new and awesome. Seeing George's interviews with Chris Broderick from Megadeth trading licks back and forth. I see a lot of great things out there out on youtube. You make things look easy, but it take a lot of practice to keep the chops up to this level. Watch this concert and you will see how much Melodic stuff is out there that makes us even better players. This is Til Tuesday's Concert. Could you imagine George, having Amy playing on Bass and singing in the band? That Keyboard player and drummer are really good to filling in all those key notes. Their guitar player is pretty awesome, with all those chord combinations and the sounds she comes up with out of that guitar. Don't Watch Me Bleed, is just awesome. Their songs or so melodic sounding and how this sound scales up the neck the way she uses the vibrato. Then resolves with this really great run at the end. It is the kind of music that puts me in a trance sort of state. I hear these magical notes that just take me places. Amy, seems like she is about to cry singing the song called "You Know The Rest", but then plays a really great upbeat song to change the mood to make everyone feel better. When songs are personal to the people who have lived through those experiences and they know others have gone through similar things it resonates with the audience. I love how the keyboard player fills in his own vocals in the parts of that song and compliments Amy's singing. You have that same collaboration in some Roxette songs. It is just magical to see two singers in the band feeding off each other to make the song even more magical. The solos in these pieces are just gold. Simple yet effective and make you just love these songs. It isn't how fast you can play but, how you use the notes that is important that makes a great band. That chemistry that makes the band work. It is all about how they make you feel. She saved the best song they are known for for last, Voices Cary. kzbin.info/www/bejne/noG9l5iVeN-SbLc I just found the Return to the East 2016 to 2018 out there so will have to watch it all. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qIS8YYauqNR-obc

[@jayguitar]

Hey Chris, how's it going? Long time man! Glad you enjoy this one 😊 Love this solo - especially the fast run! 😃 Thanks for the links dude! I will check them out! Have an amazing day!

[@chrishastings6312]

@@jayguitar Jay, yea it has been a long time. Seems like yesterday, that we were all involved in taking all those lessons. It was one of the most fun times in my life. I had some work done to my 2 electric guitars. I also own one acoustic. I had locking tuners put on both. There is a block added to the bridge Floyd Rose to give it more sustain. A volume mod was done to make it so when I roll it back it cleans up. That was for both electrics. For the Tiger, I had the kneck fixed, so that it was more playable. I had a Bullet Floyd Rose put on it. The sustain was awful before this one done on the Tiger. Now it plays a lot better. The pickup was changed out to Duncan JB2. My Messa Boogie, broke and was getting worked on. They replaced the tubes that had gone out. Said they can't fix the part that is something to do with a mode it goes in with some of the diodes. Said sometimes it happens and just have to turn the amp off and back on to get it to work as it should. I mainly just play now on the JS-10. Pretty nice unit, that has a speaker as a built in portable unit that can take anywhere very quickly. I don't get to play as much now as I used to. When you live with other people, it isn't easy to play at any time I want. When I lived in a small apartment by myself, I would always be on the guitar and that amp 2 hours a day. Because, I had worked night shift, the other people were gone during the day as to not bother people at that time. But, I still had to play the amp at low volumes. So I had the master all the way up and the gain no more than a little over the 2 setting. It goes all the way to 10. This way the things that make the amp sound good happen, but it isn't so loud that people complain. I come up with some new sounding runs now. Trying out various things. Discovering songs from the past from just jamming along and say to myself. Hey I remember that one and start playing more of it trying to figure out the rest. Using a pedaling technique on the same notes. I guess it would be called trill. I try to practice figer picking, because I'm not that good at it. The acoustic forces me to have to play differently. Going back to playing the electric after the acoustic makes playing seem a lot easier.

[@rockinrobinbuddi2112]

Hey Jay! Where can I find the backing track for "Into the Fire" (guitar)? Please advise. Thanks a million!!

[@jayguitar]

Hi Robin, I created all of my own backing tracks so you could do that - here's how I did it :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/oKXIf5uchsuDbpI - I'm afraid I don't share them as I don't have distribution licenses. Enjoy and have an awesome day :)

[@bill.clifford.59]

How does he get that awesome chorus rhythm sound?

[@jayguitar]

Hey Bill, great Q! I can tell you how I got the sound - I just uploaded a video on the today - here is the link - kzbin.info/www/bejne/eJealZSqhLeUp9U - enjoy and have an awesome week dude!!! :)

[@backtothe80s97]

Hi Jay, so I don’t think anyone mentioned this, but on that fast run going up the neck, there’s a lot of different tabs obviously out there. Some say there all hammer ons, some say there is a slide there, which one is correct ? For example: the first couple hammer ons sounds like 5^6^8 on the B string and then 5^7^8 on the high E string. Some Care but does it really matter ? Everyone has there own way of doing it but as far as playing exactly to the record, the first couple hammer ons sound like those .

[@jayguitar]

Hey dude, great Q and I know a few people have commented on this point - I've watched George play this numerous times and froem what I see, he picks the notes on the B string and then single picks the note on the E string and then hammers on. The slide is added to get to the next position. Anyways, those are my thoughts 🙏 Hope that helps. Have an awesome day!

[@mritorto1]

hey jay do find the best george lynch guitar tab book to acurate

[@jayguitar]

Hey Marc, hows it going? Best tab books - thats a tricky one as I have found that a lot of tab of George's songs are incorrectly done because of the quirks of his playing style - just little things here and there - so I used to just create my own tabs from the knowledge that i have 😊 The Wicked Sensation and Lynch Mob II books are really good though - pretty accurate. Hope that helps! Have an amazing day!

[@mritorto1]

[@troyking694]

Oh man you didn't do the pick tap slide at the end lol

There's a pick tap bit??? Doh!!!!! I missed that completely! Thanks for letting me know buddy! I'll check that out for sure :) Have an awesome week Troy! :)

[@_vixen_4504]

Are there any way that you still have the tabs for the solo somewhere cause the link dosen't work anymore

[@jayguitar]

Yes absolutely - thanks for the heads up about the link. Some of the old links have expired 😊 🙏 Here is the new one - drive.google.com/file/d/0B0f40AfLF4_3aVBGRmI5NjhKajA/view?usp=sharing - enjoy! Have an amazing day!!!

The tabs say something different? Tabs are 16-17-19 on the G string and on the B string 17-18-17-15-17-15 ?

[@thefam9179]

In the last part the tab is A lot different then how you say it’s played. It confused me at first

[@Bigagoo]

It's fun toggling pieces of this solo with parts of Gypsy and Hunter.

[@jayguitar]

Absolutely! Thats how I learnt to solo in GL's style!!!! :) Always fun to mix it up! Have an awesome day John :)

[@Bigagoo]

Also when you combine the Lynch lycks with guitarist in different styles, namely Armik.

[@god6384]

man this is too fast Ive been practicing this for 2 months now

[@jayguitar]

Keep it at dude - sometimes it takes time to reach the speed. Once you do though, that dominoes into everything else that you play 😊 Chip away at it now and then and you'll get there 🤘 Have an awesome day.
