[@MDmathews]

Damn, dude. Amazing. I've been playing for 42 yrs. No lessons, just wanted to play guitar. I play a wide variety of music. I'm now going to explore the (Ben Gallagher) stuff. Love it. Got to do it. I'm sorry I think I've missed the deadline for the tailor. Lost a Martin. Lesson learned. Thanks for Sharing your story. # inspired.

[@mikewallace1270]

Been working on it for 2 days! There's an amazing amount of nuance and detail in this riff from both your right and your left hand. I really developed a great appreciation for your playing, Ben. You kick ass!!

[@BenGallaherMusic]

Thank ya sir! I really appreciate it!

[@thomaswigfield7623]

Thanks for this Ben, especially for slowing it down. I’ve been trying to suss it out since the first time I heard it. I’m an old guy from Scotland and I’ve still got the Strat I bought in 1962.

[@BenGallaherMusic]

Love that! Thanks for the support!

[@CraigersL57]

Great song. We need me of this in life. Sending love from Boise, Idaho

When you play it slow it sounds like its straight out of the punisher tv series

[@schizophrenicpsycho3439]

Fuckin legend 💪💪💪

[@fiveronthedowns1001]

could you make a clip vid of just the slowed riff? It helps if you like to loop it when learning..

[@stormriderkaos]

reminiscent of the guitar line in Sneaker Pimps Post-Modern Sleaze

[@Oberbazillus]

That riff is not easy. A little tricky.. but i love it. Stomp on

[@BenGallaherMusic]

Stomp on!

[@sonivex]

Oh wow… This Ben guy knows a thing or two about playing guitar 😂

[@Morsmalleo]

Challenge accepted purely because i love the song and I want to be able to play it myself

[@MahoshunKashung]

Now this is getting interesting...

[@zerothreefive6014]

Chet Atkins And Jerry reed prepared me for this. 😂. It's not your hardest riff but it's the catchiest

[@MackDaddyVic]

So this competition is for November 17th of 2024 right? Because this video was uploaded 9 months ago and 9 months ago was December 2023. Just asking to make sure because I’m about to learn this whole riff in a week.

[@atomwenzel]

Damn, 3 days too late to to discover this wicked riff and try to win the guitar

[@reqhskslkwe4480]

I'm a beginner guitarist..takes for me years to perfect this

[@shigetsan]

[@agrahazl]

yeah sure, but can it be played with a capo? Kinda like with video cards, great but can it run Crisis? I'm Not re-tuning my 12 string.

[@lynnparent5565]

I have shared it all over! Hey Ben let me know when Blake Shelton calls ya!!!😊

[@greek42069]

Wild he's got a Philadelphia accent but rips that country twang like a country boy

[@jonathantourot]

[@georgescreeksawshop]

[@Soapykay]

[@Gitaris_Matadewa]

open String Tuning..😎👍

[@cameronwall6061]

What Taylor model are you playing??

[@crimxIFTYOP]

Hi ben.Can you tell me What tuning did you used in stomp?

[@BenGallaherMusic]

drop c# -- so if you're in standard, drop d and then half step down from there

[@richardpearson8351]

There are no wrong notes just dissonant and pleasing notes.

[@JohnBricksmith2048]

Miles Davis has a similar quote: "There are no wrong notes, only wrong resolutions"

[@norfolknwhey4787]

I’ve heard of a one hit wonder, but this is a one riff wonder lol

[@averint]

The riff is incredible, but this is the most watery and useless guitar lesson I've ever seen

[@ElTestok]

I don't know who that guy on the left is but he seemed like the most braindead uninterested person I've seen in a while... Maybe he was just nervous on camera? Maybe he was stuck in his head? Music is sick though!

[@Phoenix-ih8qq]

Tell me you ripped off Steven Curtis Chapman's 1996 hit, "LORD OF THE DANCE", without telling me you ripped off Steven Curtis Chapman's 1996 hit, "LORD OF THE DANCE".

[@BenGallaherMusic]

Different in sooooo many ways. But hey, thanks!

[@Limitless_Kicks]

had to look up Lord of the Dance...... this stomp riff isn't even CLOSE- it kicks WAY too much ass. WHAT HAPPENED TO THE FIRST TAYLOR GUITAR GIVEAWAY FOR PRESAVING THE SONG BEFORE IT DROPPED !?!??!

[@Phoenix-ih8qq]

**Stolen in so many ways.**

[@phobiacalls9669]

Tell me you don’t play guitar without telling me you don’t play guitar. 😂

[@lrplayz978]

Cool video absolutely terrible lesson teaching

[@theothersongsonthealbum2598]

[@BenGallaherMusic]

It’s called a metaphor, pal. And I wasn’t the one who said it. But hey, learn the riff to win a guitar! Good luck other songs on the album 🤘🏻
