Hi All! I've had to cut out part of the practice track at the end of the video to make sure this video passes KZbin's copyright checks. If you'd like the FULL guitar lesson, it is available on Patreon: www.patreon.com/smellytele. Rather than disputing the copyright claims and risk my channel being shut down, I decided it's more important to keep these videos available for YOU, even if it means lowering the quality on KZbin.

This is an excellent piece of instruction. Taking apart the solo, lick by lick, is so manageable and each time I complete a lick it gives me a great sense of achievement 😊 Thanks Smelly 🙏

listening carefully to that first bar, the 2nd F note you have (10th fr G string) is actually an Eb. I.e., he's outlining a C min arpeggio, G - Eb - C.

your not playing the rhythm in C right . Its not sliding bar chords , your hand is fixed and there is a little riff there in the rhythm. . Also in the intro at 2:24, you need to bend the string up as you pull off

The tab is bad...compare to the recording first of all, and then to other tabs to find what parts sound best. A very hard solo... especially the second pinch harmonic solo. Every tab I have seen has it really wrong.. Wish I could find the isolated guitar track for this song, but no luck yet. I will just keep woodshedding this one, because it is a legendary song.
