[@faction95]

Thank you so much Matt! I love this song and never knew it was so simple to play.

[@LetsPlayAll]

Happy to help mate!

[@pearljamhead]

Absolutely crunchy sound and accuracy, Cheers Matt!!! You are spreading the thick Jam!!!!!

[@LetsPlayAll]

Cheers Naveed, glad you enjoyed it!

[@willthunderbay7652]

Awesome that you are covering this song. Great instruction, accurate and posittive attitude. Totally made my day. Thanks

[@LetsPlayAll]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@TheRodolfoVideos]

Very sharp guitar tone!

[@LetsPlayAll]

Thanks Rodolfo!

[@janimizer1725]

That intro riff is mesmerising

[@LetsPlayAll]

Totally, works so well behind all those lush harmonies in the chorus too! Stone was on fire back then

[@epicfaceisepic]

I was hoping that you would come out with a lesson for this, thanks so much, I saw that this was uploaded and got SO HYPE lol

[@LetsPlayAll]

The Iris haha glad you enjoyed this one mate! 😀🤘

[@nachoalvarez9814]

Fantastic!!!!pure grunge.

[@LetsPlayAll]

Yes indeed Nacho!

[@liquidusnake93]

Thank you, is the only lesson on YT for reach down. There are three copies on the deluxe album I have (not even counting live versions) and although the basic dna is the same, each one contains unique variations on the verses and solos. Check out the demo version and listen for the two verse riffs with the wah. It’s so nasty and i still havent figured it out or found someone teaching it.

[@GeorgiGeorgiev-mr5dp]

Thank you sir, God bless you !!!

[@mikemerkin1215]

Really nice. No BS and right to it. Great job!

[@LetsPlayAll]

Thanks Mike!

[@kkrsnn5632]

I was listening to this just today and wanted to check out a kesson, guessed who popped out in the search 😎 Very Mad Season riff 😁

[@lapidaris]

Thank you teacher Matt! 😀

[@LetsPlayAll]

My pleasure!

[@nolarocks]

So good!

[@motorologist]

For some reason, I find it hilarious that this video is almost the exact same length as the song it's teaching Anyway, thanks for this, really could not find any good tabs online, this is a big help!

[@LetsPlayAll]

You're welcome mate!

[@eddieharley2235]

Awesome job!! Love that T-Shirt! 🤣

[@LetsPlayAll]

Thanks mate 😀🤘

[@willthunderbay7652]

I thought the would be handy here; Well, I had a dream the other night You were in a bar in the corner on a chair Wearing a long white leather coat Purple glasses and glitter in your hair And you said, "hey, this is where I'm gonna sit And buy you a drink someday Well, you were going to the dog shows But you kinda lost your way Now you said, "now I got all this room And no money to decorate it" So some local customer put me in touch with the man upstairs But he said, "little man, you got no business gettin' frustrated You gotta rest, you gotta rest, you gotta rest" You gotta reach down and pick the crowd up Oh, I wanna reach down and pick the crowd up Carry back in my hand to the promised land To the promised land Ooh, I had an angel shine my wings She said, "nothin' but the best for the golden boy And she made me promise not to tell I had her under a spell Singin' golden words in a broken voice Now I caught a blessing on the wind I'm feelin' lighter than a breath from a dove I got no hands to tie behind my back And I'm sparkin' like a heart attack And I got room to spread my wings And my messages of love, yeah Love was my drug But that's not what I died of So don't ya think of me Cryin' louder than some billion dollar baby Ooh, I wanna rest I wanna rest I wanna rest I wanna reach down and pick the crowd up I wanna reach down and pick the crowd up Carry back in my hand to the promised land To the promised land To the promised land Oh Yeah, ooh, ooh Yeah, I wanna reach down Oh yeah, and pick the crowd up (I wanna reach down) I wanna reach down (And pick the crowd up) and pick the crowd up (Carry back in my hand) hand (To the promised land) to the promised land (To the promised land) ooh, yeah Ah, oh

[@PinetopJackson]

Great lesson! That's a cool old Les Paul too! Did you cover up the Gibson logo out of protest, or is that an unbranded Ibanez?

[@LetsPlayAll]

Thanks man, no protest haha it was like then when i bought it from an auction. It's an Edwards Japanese made LP that use to belong to AC/DCs guitar tech

[@PinetopJackson]

@@LetsPlayAll awesome!

[@pacoarcos8804]

Great tutorial!, how do you should set 1991 pedal?

[@LetsPlayAll]

Tbh just dial the gain to taste. The eq works wherever haha. For this I’d probably go with knob one halfway and knob two full should get you there

[@KowboyUSA]

Temple of the Dog 👍

[@LetsPlayAll]

Yes indeed Kowboy!

[@CaptainBackFat]

Thank you. Great tutorial. Sounds great on my SG Vox VT40X. Not as good as your LP, but close.

[@LetsPlayAll]

You're welcome! I think the tone on this guitar is down to the bare knuckle pickup (Mule i think) - it's a japanese made LP copy haha

[@CaptainBackFat]

@@LetsPlayAll I have to come clean that my "SG" is a Harley Benton SG homage with the Gotoh gold hardware, but damn, it still sounds great. I wish I could post pics because this guitar is so amazing!

[@LetsPlayAll]

@@CaptainBackFat all that matters is if you love to play it 🤘😀

[@CaptainBackFat]

@@LetsPlayAll Here's my exact Harley Benton with a great review... kzbin.info/www/bejne/ep3Xnnh-hNONasU

[@SteveAshby]

Awesome. Now all the solos please ;-)

[@LetsPlayAll]

haha thanks Steve! Stay tuned for a "What would Mike do?" lesson on approach to soloing :-)

[@carlosaguirre1518]

Great! ♥️

[@LetsPlayAll]

Thanks! 😊

[@thisismstre]

Heck Yeah 🔥🤘

[@LetsPlayAll]

cheers Uncle E!

[@MusicalSavior23]

I wanna reach down.....

[@sjuicehockey]

Where did you get that shirt?

[@LetsPlayAll]

Hey John, I can't remember but it's an Ames Bros tee i bought years back, one of my fave tees, not sure if it's still available?

[@royalslack]

I don’t understand what you’re doing at 7:25

[@LetsPlayAll]

just going from an A to a partial G chord but i'm muting the A string when i play the G with a bit of meat from my first finger. essentially tho mate just play an open A to open G and you're good!

[@eli_0213]

There’s no way this is a tutorial for 12 minutes of soloing this song is

[@LetsPlayAll]

Eh?

[@eli_0213]

I’m talking about the huge section from minute 5:00 all the way through 8:30 of the song where it’s all guitar soloing. And even from 9:20 to the end of it

[@thietier7097]

First

[@LetsPlayAll]

Boom!

[@blejavac]

Quite Interesting - your guitar lesson is 7 seconds shorter than the original song!!! LMAO!

[@LetsPlayAll]

blejavac haha dammit I need to improve my editing skills, will try and get it bang on next time! That is one looong solo 😀
