[@gmanorginal420]

Most people on youtube show off and dont actually teach, this guy is definitely not one of them. Thank you for the great lesson

[@CastlesMadeOf...]

This solo never fails to bring a smile to my face - awesome!

[@dykeneuk]

After 30 yrs of trying to learn to play that amazing solo, I feel I'm finally making some headway. A few more weeks should do it. I've got all the techniques down and can nearly do it. I love the way you've broken it down into chunks to make it easier. Thank the Lord for KZbin and for your tutorial. This kind of playing is far more musical sounding than modern stuff. Thanks very much!

[@micha1119]

Raymond Donaldson So did you learn it?

[@ramelak]

Fantastic, thank you sir! I could never have figured our those nuances without your lesson! There's nothing better than the feeling you get when you can play that solo you've always wanted to play - thanks again!

[@donsachindramanuelge9152]

thank you "Guitarreference". Your idea of breaking down the lick into small parts made this solo an easy one to learn!

[@brianmenke]

Thank you so so much for this. I have been working on it almost every day for four months. Got all the notes down now and just trying to get it dialed in just right. I'll be rocking this at the next family reunion thanks to you! I just can't thank you enough!!

[@mihailjst]

Awesome! One of the few lessons that teaches what people are actually interested to play! Great job Sir. We need more tutorials like this!

[@treetooone]

Awesome tutorial! I made it to 8:21 before my E-string snapped... I'll be back tomorrow ;)

[@Lanuitdec]

Stony Road XD

[@Blairiamm]

damn that sucks. learning it now since my lessons are every 2 weeks

[@Professionalpatternrecognizer]

I beat you! 17:47! Haha!

[@Blairiamm]

lol slowly learning...getting there :P

[@leondgtv4769]

Lol same for me!

[@terryo1532]

Sir, you are amazing - not only do you have it all down you explain it without getting boring - great job! I'll have to listen and mimic for hours but I'll get it thanks to you. Thank You!!!

[@michaeltitus7821]

Thanks Guitarreference. I have been playing this solo for about forty years and of course play it with my own inflections. As a heavily influenced Gilmore and Clapton strat player I get some of there intonation and styling in everything I play. However I been looking at Felder for years and how he does things with his chops. You captured some of these on point and I have been adding them into my arsenal. Thanks so much for this great solo break down.

[@ThatOldMan2112]

I almost stopped paying attention just looking at that guitar. What a beauty. Thank you for the lesson....I'm sure I'll get it eventually.

[@timhadzisavas6573]

Hi sean. just caught your tutorial on hotel california. I have only 1 thing to say. You are the king!!! ive seen a hell of a lot of lessons on this one but yours is definitely the best. thx for sharing your talent with all of us.

[@chanchris4303]

This is the best lesson for Hotel California......great job......

[@Guitarreference]

Thank you Chan

[@osirissalgado6689]

when u break it down like that it just shows how awsome this solo is.Thanks.

[@bjmccoyacousticsacoustics724]

great video man. I'm reminded by this video that the pentatonic scale saves my life when I don't know where to solo

[@ahmedmoussa5866]

great tutorial! being able to play this solo (even with loads of mistakes) is a dream come true! thanks a lot for this tutorial.

[@TheCampnFool]

Well done!! Awesome lesson - thank you for equating each lick with the corresponding chord. Just a very well done lesson!

[@kozeey]

Thank you so fricking much man! I’d been tryna learn that solo for a while, and you’re the only one who explained well and fast enough to keep me from getting discouraged

[@Guitarreference]

Thank you Kozeey!

[@kelseyhansenn]

Hey Guitarreference dude! THANK YOU so much for taking the time and posting this lesson. This is one classic solo that I always wanted to learn and thanks to you, I've finally done it! The way you broke down and explained each lick makes it much less intimidating to tackle. Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge and help those of us who absolutely appreciate what you do for us!

[@timmytasmania1]

Thank you so much for this lesson I've tried so hard to learn this solo by ear and could never get it now I can play it thanks to this lesson! Thank u!

[@arnabsengupta19]

May I say that was amazing and you were so patient to explain each steps

[@yfridihome]

thank you so much for this lesson, it's realy perfect !!!! step for step and slowly - so its wonderful to learn.... greatings from Germany from Fritz near Munich...

[@jdbroome8125]

Fantastic Tutorial! Thank you for the Informative, precise, & accurate Lesson

[@vishaltupper]

Cant thank you enough for this... I am still half way through but enjoying learning so much.

[@autocrow]

The harmony part starting at 20:00 gets me every time. It's fast and weird. I'd be happy to simply fill in the empty spot in my solo with something that sounded OK. Everyone teaches that part different and I can't get it to sound right to me. Thanks for the lesson. Awesome solo. One of the best guitar solos ever. IMO

[@rentic888]

This song is really really difficult, it appears that they combined several pieces of music which they could have used to create at least 10 songs, its difficult to imagine how they managed to make such a song, hats off to all those who managed to play this effortlessly, you guys are incredibly talented, i can and would rather play this piece of music on the keyboard definately not on a guitar, but that will not produce those kind of vibrations and sound effects...

[@jimwynne6376]

Finally nailed it! BIG THANKS Sean!!!!!

[@garybowker7517]

[@jeorgesegismundo181]

[@rafaelvelasco2734]

Excelente explicación amigo, muchas gracias

[@puppylove17ful]

Excellent Tutorial I ever seen !!

[@edgrve]

Awesome lesson! I will get this down one of these days...

[@chrisjames1924]

This is one of those songs that’s easy and very quick to learn in a superficial level but, and it’s a big BUT, to play it properly, with style and panache, it’s pretty difficult to nail. If you can’t bend accurately, you may as well not bother. One by of the best ever, for sure.

[@Guitarreference]

Thank you Chris!

[@cheveulubleu1396]

thx for this ... your lesson is just perfect, nice sharing.

[@martinjungbauer9984]

Thanks! Best tutorial for this solo on KZbin! ;)

[@artvillarino2878]

Nice video! very clear and easy to understand even to beginner players

[@hendrixius]

Yeah - at the end of the intro that was just painful to listen to - he consistently did over-bends, pushing the note sharper than it is supposed to be...but still he teaches it well.

[@11chivasrock]

Very beautiful solo work

[@BazmAfarin]

Great work. Thank you very much.

[@BuskerK]

You are so great, master!!!

[@knockout3135]

[@vansonha6869]

[@Professionalpatternrecognizer]

I drew blood practicing this solo. So I duck taped my fingers and kept playing. I WILL NAIL THIS!

[@dylannoonan260]

Nioce

[@mattb9528]

how long have you been playing ?

[@Professionalpatternrecognizer]

+Knawledge & Bookshelves Seriously, for about a year. I had just picked up the axe again when I decided to learn this one, so my calluses weren't super thick yet.

[@Professionalpatternrecognizer]

+Knawledge & Bookshelves it's all the full step bends that killed me. Lol

[@mattb9528]

Jason Stroppa me too haha I remember I started November of last year, and I'm actually nailing the bends it's just I keep hitting the wrong notes & its screwing me up haha it's hard to play perfectly

[@Libra-it2kb]

Thank you!..this is very big help for me!🙏🏻🙏🏻😇😇💘💘💘

[@manoskf]

You r awesome dude! Thnx for the lesson

[@thetkhine4489]

Perfect, thanks

[@tomaaron6187]

Top notch, and thanks. I like the pace and clear explanation. I really like the chord being shown before notes.Just a tip to beginners. No need to copy note per note. I only like about 2/3rds of the original solo. I improvise..ldo the same if playing on your own as it flows better. I also strum a quick chord during the now and then.

[@TheKRALJTOMISLAV]

Bravo Hvala-Danke-Thanks

[@surajsinghharariya4230]
