Crazy little thing called love - Queen main solo and verse fills note for note tutorial Tab

[@joeyduncan4978]

My band added this to the set and had to learn the solo tonight. Thanks for the help! Made it much quicker than breaking it down myself. Perfect for people who already know how to play

[@2424rocket]

The one thing you’re very good at is teaching. There’s a lot of good guitar players on the Internet trying to give tutorials, and most of them suck… You’re one of the few I have found who understands how to teach and how to get these licks across to us. So thanks a lot.

[@jameswcollett]

This breakdown was revelatory for me. My respect for Brian May's inventiveness has just gone up a notch. And what a concise tutorial. Thanks!

[@louiseroman1145]

You're a terrific guitarist! Thanks for the post. Brian was one of the greatest and most creative lead players I've ever heard.

[@wockja]

*is, is one the greatest

Still is!!! :)

George Canizales you said it!

@@georgecanizales1190 can you shut the fuck up? some people need to look at tabs you fucking idiot.

@@sidious1391 yea, it's called playing by ear nit by visuals

[@hectichive889]

Im actually shaking. I never thought about how bluesy this sounds.

[@brynjones7371]

It's more cliff Gallup than blues, gene Vincents guitar player, have a look he was fabulous.

[@hectichive889]

Bryn Jones, Sooo... Would that be rockabilly?

[@lorrainepatt2784]

Thank You Will Hay. I love your lessons ! quick and accurate with out bogging down with too much "play it so slow i fall asleep waiting for the next part" I a quick learner and your put it there and its easy to grasp and a little practice and we've got it. I also learned how to play The Middle with your tremendous direction! Great job teaching.

[@1Keef]

Awesome. Great technique and clear explanation. Thanks.

[@tyroy57]

Thanks, i've wanted to play this for ages. I'll add it next time i perform, good luck Will.

[@nucleusmedicalmedia]

Very tasteful playing, Will!

[@dreimer2112]

This is probably the best guitar solo lesson I've seen. Super easy to follow. Thanks!

[@ascotia]

This tutorial is excellent, thank you Will. My only suggestion for everyone reading would be to listen to the last fill before the main solo one more time because the album recording that most of us are trying to replicate is slightly different. There is no pull-off from 12 to 10 on the high E at the very beginning of that fill. The lick starts on the 13th fret on the 1st string, to 12, to 13 on the 2nd string, down to 10 on the 1st string. Following that, there is only one pull-off on the 2nd string instead of two (but all the same notes as this tutorial). The "correct" way to play it is actually a little bit easier than this video's version. Listen to the song in slow motion and you will hear the difference. Sorry that's confusing to read but the fix is really very simple in practice!

[@ronalddobson3130]

Cheers, Will. Excellent tutorial👍

[@DaveyHg]

I'm playing this tonight as a one off at a queen night thanks to your video I can play it in record time.. thanks

[@IdoN0TneedTherapy]

Thank you so much for doing the fills too. I would mind seeing a video on "It's late". You know - if you cannot think of anything else to do :-)

[@SatansBoil]

Really enjoying your tutorials, thank you very much for those.

[@kakarocks317]

Keep up the good work Will. Looking forward to the next installment already!

[@MattKatayes]

Thank you so much thanks to you I learned this song in 5 days !!!

[@rwinter069]

Cool solo. Nicely presented. Thanks!

[@larrylowemusic8748]

Great playing and teaching Will Hay!!

[@Rlotpir1972]

Nice Strat you got. The original solo (1979) was done on the Telecaster.

[@ferpirata76]

great, great lesson man. Very well explained. Suscribed. Thank you very much

[@TheCoolRaven]

this is great! I like your tone. I already knew how to play most of this but I wanted to learn the fills and was too lazy to learn by ear

[@mirkomisic5884]

Great tutorial, Great Band!!

Tabs? (Great Video!)

[@sebasanan9841]

Muchas gracias!! Muy útil este video, se pulen todos los detalles!

[@simonhillier]

Cheers Will. I've been trying to work out the best way to play that last bit of the main solo for ages, but by jumping around the frets and strings it was never really fluid. The way you showed - sorted mate.

[@guyliwanag6982]

Dude! That was cool. You teach well. Hopefully i can get it. Fingers are slow. Any suggestions of a scale that will help me to get that lick? Im playing that song for a party with my friends. I just need the solo part. I will surely use your video. Thank you for the post and all your hard work. It's great for someone like me that cannot afford a teacher and not enough time in my schedule.

[@ladgrove]

Great vid. Helped me learn it, cheers!!

[@altriego1]

Nice job, thanks for posting

[@lespaulfanofsparta]

I'm so learning this. Fantastic! BTW, is that a Jeff Beck signature model? I have the same one I think. Great guitar.

[@edwardchristman2368]

Why does it sound weird when I do it I’m doing the same thing but it doesn’t sound right 6:47 Awesome. Great technique and clear explanation. Thanks.

[@rockydocky7541]

Maybe you haven’t got the settings on your guitar right

Why did you stop making tutorials?

[@jordanvafaie2089]

will hay, how many times did you slowly practice the fills and solo until you got to the point where you played them flawless without even looking at your fret board, haha, raddd. how long?

[@wormstheii]

Its been 5 years where are the tabs

I had the same problem but you don't pick it twice. You pick the string once then tap. I had the same problem but I got it after taking a break ahaha

Lick @ around 8:40 starts correctly but ends up on wrong string. Great otherwise.

[@katemoody8459]

ownage pranks

[@sergiodiez9306]

Put some fracking tabs brah

[@fiddleandfart]

Using the fracking ears is best. Tabs will only give you the notes, not the feel..!
