"A#" you fuckin serious! B FLAT!!!!!! FUCK!!!!!

[panthers27bsbll]

@LManTehPwner calm the fuck down,A# is the same tone as B flat, did you also happen to notice he said E# at the end, thats actually supposed to be E flat, a totally different note, and technically in drop C# you Would call it A#

[LegendaryRock10]

Thanks Thanks Thanks

[6StringMikey]

Wow guys, thank you SO much for showing us this riff! Says a lot about your character to take time out of your busy schedule for this lesson. Something, I might add, that most other musicians of your caliber don't do. Now that we have the opening riff down we'll definitely add this to our playlist! Thx again!!

[codeofsilence401]

is this standard tuning or drop d or what

[CheapComputing]

he said it himself. Drop D, but they play it in Drop C# (or Drop D Flat, same thing) :)

[guitarpeeps17]

[malakain900]

thats great guitar tone right there.

[KillingYouForMe]

Chris really reminds me of Shaun Morgan these days...if he got purple hair

[PearlJam354]

What kind of guitar is Chris using? I love those guitars with like steel plating on them. what brand of guitars are they? can someone answer that question for me?

[CharvelM2]

If you mean the steel logo on the headstock, those guitars are Zemaitis guitars.

[thebearer]

Zemaitis Metal Front MF201-LL. I know this only because I want one!

[ashbamarssixx]

dont know the name but i know it starts with a Z if that helps

[hotguy6313]

lol Ben was wanting to say something the whole time from about 1:18 to 1:21 he looked mad, he was ready to talk lol, haha this bands awesome man

[althejazzman]

So for all the people struggling with the chords, there's only 4 of them at the end of the riff, and they're all power chords.

So:

frets 1,3,3 on strings 5,4,3

333 on strings 654

555 on strings 654

355 on strings 543

But yeah make you sure you tune to Drop C# or Db. And get some meaty heavy gauge strings and a phat valve amp.

[clanstead]

But the guitar doesn't sound so thick..

[freerunner125]

love the way you guys rock

awsome !!!!!!!!!!!!

[Steffkatze]

I met you guys twice :D

When you first came to England, me and my girls were backstage with you guys at the Astoria.

I love that your actually doing a video lesson - you're all so caring of your fans.

I cannot wait til you come again in the summer.

[watisup19]

ben is hot but his leg muscels jiggle

i saw them in concert on valentines day in 2009 i waved and ben stoped playing i think then i got a guitar pick with his name on it

[hazzagal]

I got one of Jon's picks with his name on :D x

[TakeItOfffff]

[RockerForLife74]

Fuckin' great song.

Fuckin' great band.

Black Stone Cherry rocks!

[mynysyn]

can anyone give me the tabs for the chords? i cant figure it out. im going where it looks lik it is on the video, but it's not right :S

[gypsyseagod]

d tuning ? tune down

[mynysyn]

i know the tuning, i can tune drop d in a heartbeat, tghe problem is the chords

[skrape110]

apparently you dont know the tuning. since it isnt drop D.  dump it down one more half step to C# G# C# F# A# D#

then just follow the video, its a really easy riff

[mynysyn]

i do know the tuning, but as you said, drop d first. so i go drop d first, then half down. i just need to know the chords

[imonlygayonmondays]

tuning for this song ?

[WithoutReasonBand]

drop d

[Kickstart187]

drop d flat, tune down everything half a step then tune the bottom e flat, to d flat

[Sprigo11]

drop c sharp not flat

[jtobs]

right but he was saying that it was flat to the drop D...which C# is a half step down from D. So its flat.

[thejohnofsteel]

same thing you moron

[belafarinrodisgod]

dropped db

[Sambe123]

ah, i met ben wells and the whol eband, i love them :D

[dannymaughan]

[OBriENS0N]

nice hair faggots i can play guitar 10 times better then you ever will be so just put guitar down or better yet just sell it then kill yourselfs because your hair looks fucking retarded

[DrumsOfDrug]

what the fuck is your problem???

[melothebest6]

ma che cazzo sta a dì?

[JamesRange62]

ok since you are so awesome, how many records have you sold? and have you ever opened for theory of a deadman or shinedown?

maybe you should learn to keep your mouth shut.

[pedals8]

theory of the deadman are wanna be's

[pedals8]

Just goes to show who is more mature.

[JonathansGurl91]

um if you can play better than them then why aren't you famous? exactly shut up and stop being a hater just cuz you don't know how to play.

[lazycrazybastard]

OBriENS0N your probably not as good as them and just cos someone isnt as good as someone else doesnt meen they should stop playing and you aint so great youve got no videos to proove this

[alfster48]
