Practice at a slow tempo. Once AND ONLY when you have it down 100% mistake-free at that slower tempo, then increase the tempo and practice again, repeat until you have it down perfect for the actual tempo.
This next part is optional but I recommend it:
Once you have the solo down at the correct tempo of the song, then increase the tempo and try to perfect it at that faster tempo. If you go back to the original (slower) tempo, it will seem MUCH easier.
@ediek915 ...says the guy who has nothing but limos and lizards posted. To the guy that posted the solo - good job. sure theres one or two off parts, but most of the naysayers on here will never even get to that point. Keep rockin and posting good vids
i wish i could play that, ive only been playing a year though, i can do the master of puppets solo but its kinda hard. how long have you been playing?
It's not tapped.. trust me. Your friend taps because tapping is easier. Kirk Hammett, the Metallica guitarist who actually made this solo doesn't tap it.. don't believe me? Then search YT for Metallica playing this live and watch the guitarist closely. Cheers
what toxxic88 said is totally true =D this solo is not with tapping is only picking well, I think with tapping sounds good but I think is better to play the original =D (excuse me if I wrote something wrong I really don't speak english)
umm maybe because if you knew something about the guitar you would know that solo doesn't have to be played under the 12th frett.Maybe you've ever heard of a guy named Jimi Hendrix.. maybe you've ever seen him play and realised that a solo can be played above the 12th frett...If you don't know what you're talking about keep your moth shut
fuck you gay i know great guitar and i don't mean that he is not playing good but it's is a little funny fucking bitch no one can say something like that to me check out my videos and see ;)
Check out the first couple of seconds, the headstock looks like an Epiphone. I think it's a prophecy model or something :) those got EMG's to, only I don't know if they are EMG-Hz or active EMG's..
I think not, Gibson's headstock is only with one, how do you say, one curl in the headstock. Epiphone's got one on top, and at the right and left side of the headstock a cutaway. Also you can see the name on the headstock is longer then the word Gibson, that what I think, I could be completely wrong :P
