Description
This song features 2 guitar layers. Guitar 1 is the rhythm guitar that holds down the foundation of the song. Guitar 2 is the lead guitar that plays some tasty licks throughout, adding plenty of interest and attitude.
There are essentially 2 sections used throughout the song, verse and chorus. The verse features a gritty, iconic riff that is repeated and forms the backbone of the song. The chorus section opens up into an aggressively played chord progression with a textbook rock strumming approach. The song ends with a lengthy vamp on the verse riff with Guitar 2 providing a relentless, rock-and-roll infused solo over top.
To play this tune using only one guitar, simply play Guitar 1 all the way through, switching to Guitar 2 for the outro solo.
In the following lessons, we'll talk about minor pentatonic based riffing, barre chords, and classic rock soloing techniques. We are in the key of A major, with a 4/4 time signature, at a tempo of 136 BPM.
