Walk Solo - Lesson (With Tabs)

[Puffinyat]

can someone please tell what i do when it says stuff like 15b17? does that mean i hit 15 before 17? or do i just put both fingers on those frets and bend?

[evilotto77cheese]

@Puffinyat You play the 15th fret and bend it up a whole tone so it's at the same pitch as the 17th fret

[Puffinyat]

@evilotto77cheese one more question, is it possible to divebomb like the one at the end without using a whammy bar?

[MetalheadNAPALM]

This guy is next Dimebag!!\

[hanssel98]

dude this is confusing :/ on the video u hammer-on and pull-off????

[patrickadair1995]

The song is in 1/4 step down just sayin /:

[sebaapocalipto]

u used pedal effects?

[GarretGoodbarrel]

I updated the guitar pro's tab of this song that was in Drop D and converted it to Down 1 step and matched the tab in this video to the tab on there. Message me if ya want me to send ya a link or a pdf of it. Happy Shredding All!! Garret

[melikespunk12]

yo man, how come all the links for tabs are different than the ones on screen? like the first fast part of the solo, you have 12 to 15, 12 to 15, were as the tabs to 10 to 13. which way is legit?

[evilotto77cheese]

@melikespunk12 That's because of the tuning - most tabs you find will have the song tuned in drop D, which will mean you play the solo starting at 10 to 13. But Dime played the song in D-standard which gives you 12 to 15. Both ways are correct really, you're playing the same notes, but 12 to 15 is the way Dime did it. You'll find that the fake echo part is a lot easier in D-standard tuning too

[BirwHite]

synyster gates the second man could play that solo perfect after dime..r.i.p dime..

[gabrielramos]

very nice tone! thanks for the lesson :D

[ssilikemarijuana]

SO EVERYONE KNOWS THE TUNING IS IS 1 1/4 STEPS DOWN,NOT DROP D NOT STEP DOWN

[patrickadair1995]

@ssilikemarijuana THIS GUY KNOWS IT!

[ZERG107]

So Dyme plays the song in Drop D or C?

[marsh1492]

lol iknow its a random question but did you?

[marsh1492]

do you crack your fingers?



[mariosmarios13]

one of the best lessons on youtube!

[SyStEmZxGaMiNg]

[PlayMetallica15]

[SticksNstones111]

[HendrixStephen]

HOLY FUCKING SHIT IS THAT THE SIGNATURE DIMEBAG LIGHTNING GUITAR?????

[LWRCftw]

@HendrixStephen chill dude. if you like it so much, just buy one. its a Dean DFH. no big deal.

[HendrixStephen]

@LWRCftw Dimebag Dean from hell CFH not DFH bro and yeah im getting it soon :D

[evilotto77cheese]

@HendrixStephen DFH stands for Dean From Hell, it's usually just called the Dean DFH

[HendrixStephen]

@evilotto77cheese ok then dean dfh cfh whatever then both me and him were right. -_-

[LWRCftw]

@HendrixStephen lawl. it's called the Dean From Hell. A.K.A. the DFH. Do some research next time.

[RileyM1989]

Wow man, excellent job. I can finally play one of my favorite guitar solos so thank You. It's alot easier for me to keep it in standard tuning so I'm glad You used standard tuning. really great job though dude and thanks for taking the time to put tabs also.

[tailslide50]

Actually the tuning isn't D standard, it's C# in 445 hz standard ;-)

[Iiiiskici]

Actually the first part of the soil is made of H On and P Off because it is fast

you showed picking all notes

[gotanesp]

No splainin needed Lucy...rock it tight bro!!!

[FarmerFrenk]

1:40 is killing me with this solo the rest aint that hard but that part is just fucking breaking me up!

[justinbinns]

Awesome! Thanks man! \m/

[sbpark95]

Can anyone help me out plz?

I have two problems whenver i try to bend strings

1. It keeps on hitting other strings, do i have to constantly palm mute the other strings?

2. Whenever I bend extensively, my fingernail like literally spereates from the skin, so that the skin under my nail digs into my fingers. Does any1 have a solution for that?

Thanks..

[aceofcooly]

@sbpark95 wen u bend, the hitting strings problem is cuz of this. wen u bend, try to hav the skin of the finger dat ur bending with touch the upper string. this will mute the string but make sure ur fingernail doesnt touch it. and for ur second problem, it mite be a physical problem or ur just trying too hard. try to use a lighter gauge for ur strings but if dat doesnt work out, maybe go to a doctor?

[gearsofwolf]

@sbpark95 im only 13 so my fingers arn't full length. what i do when i bend is use the bottom of my fingers (opposite side of finger nail) and try to mute other strings for your other string problem

[tailslide50]

@sbpark95 For issue #2, use two or three fingers to bend, like if you are bending a 12th fret note, use your ring finger on the 12th to play it, and your middle and index fingers on the 11th and 10th to help with bending.

[TheCascade14]

Can you please work on the Cowboys From Hell Solo?? That would be great and i learned this one up to speed it helped a bunch!!! Like this so It gets to the top!! R.I.P DIME!!

[UraniumEngel]

it´s me, or the fake echo sounds like marios jumping?

[miksutzo]

..

[Aaronbones007]

eres un perdedor mijares!!ponte a practicar!>:(

[tailslide50]

Actually the tuning is C# in 445 hz, just a hair under D ;-)

[guapo8832]

is their pulloffs? one tab had them but it didnt sound right.

[guapo8832]

BEST lesson video for the solo by far, awesome job!

[Duleee93]

DIMEBAG IS THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!

[mistermayhem1247]

Excellent job, you're a great player, and thank you for producing something infinitely more helpful than any of the tabs on ultimate guitar! I salute you.

[TheLoquendofan]

no hamers and pull offs

[AcidDrinker13]

could u do same lesson for cowboys from hell solo ?

[evilotto77cheese]

@AcidDrinker13 I'll get working on it

[AcidDrinker13]

@evilotto77cheese thanks : D

[evilotto77cheese]

@AcidDrinker13 Ok, sorry it's taken so long - the video for Cowboys from Hell is now up. I'll add the tabs in the annotations shortly

[AcidDrinker13]

@evilotto77cheese great ! thanks for memory ^^

[sixtythreechevy]

what size strings are you using? I cannot get those upward bends to vibrato

[xXGooz3Xx]

nice work, great solo except its tuned to D and 1/4 step down more. just saying

[MADmemphis564]

Sup dude great cover may i ask what effects did you use to get that tone?

[Irideallamawithtoast]

I want your guitar! The best ive got is a Dean ML X

[bagelguy520]

I'm definitley getting laid when I get this up to speed.

[FuckinMetal3694]

perfect 

[royzub747]

I wish to like ltd mh-327

[sixstrings209]

Awesome lesson thank you 

[Th3MetalShockwave]

mamon asi noe s el solo

[rageagainstboxhead]

I just needed help on the two-handed slide

[FromAshToDust]

well maybe ya dont. my bad

[FromAshToDust]

you need to play this two frets down

[FromAshToDust]

wrong.

[scorpionz44]

ur bends and vibratos r sick, i gota work on mine, is it cuz of the strings? if so wat strings wuld u recomend?

[evilotto77cheese]

@scorpionz44 For good bends and vibrato you need quite thin strings, but you get the best tone from thicker strings, so it's all about finding the right balance

[Ghoden]

@evilotto77cheese i've heard that the best thing to use for these kinds of songs are Ernie Ball heavy top slinky bottom strings are the best, although i've tried the zakk wylde heavy top slinky bottoms and imho, they were some pretty sick strings,try something like those and you should get a good sound for your bends

[cmacaoidh]

@evilotto77cheese

For my own guitar, I use Blue Steel strings. They undergo a cryogenic freezing process, and have an incredibly live tone that lasts a long time. However, using standard .09 to .42 strings doesn't give me the "chug" I love. So, I like the thin strings on my first four strings,but use thicker strings on my 5th and 6th strings to give a brutal chug on the low end, and maintain vibrato/bend on high notes. Blue Steel also provide awesome harmonics. I refuse to use any other brand.

[ArseLoad0fMetal666]

@evilotto77cheese id say thts wrong, i mean jst looking at the type of players who use thick strings like 12s and 13s: Jimi Hendrix, SRV and Zakk Wylde it tends to be the ppl who do alot of bends that use thick strings....ultimately thick strings will always sound better BUT thinner strings are easier to play, thts why more technical players such as Dimebag, Steve Vai and Yngwie use them

[lostboy471]

@scorpionz44 I RECCOMEND HOOKIN UP SOME HEAVY ASS STRINGS, TAKIN A SHOT, AND BEND THOSE FUCKERS LIKE YOU MEAN IT. imsorry but that my goddamn outlook. find w/e string you want.

[usetheforce93]

Dimes solos are simple, FAST, and awesome. He shredded with feeling. I memorized this in about 30 minutes, but I will have to practice this for a few months before I can play it right. Thanks for the lesson. :D

[metalvoukou]

thx you are the best :D:D:D

[marcelomulin]

very nice thanks

[thekillahigh420]

I got the book but that shit is hard to read, watching someone is so much better to learn from and thanks for slowing it down. Peace

[adrianestuvoalla]

hey dude what pickups do u use and what are your amp settings it sounds amazing!

nice vid btw

R.I.P DIME

[Metalhead2474]

nice vid man im about 1 and half in .. almost got the whole solo down .. but not up to speed i will eventually though.. only problem i have... is a shitty amp so my dean bbolt dosent sound as great and it dosent have a whammy bar witch sucks .. got replace the any part the whammy bar is used with a vibrato but other than that i think i could get this down.. oh and how do u tune 1/4 down ? i dont really understand how he tunes like that ha

[maidenrocks98]

goddamn this sems imposible!!

[countflanders]

shit that would work. why the fuck didn't i think of that cheers hahahaha

[nickkun21]

dewde thats fucking awesome, how long have you been playing

and this helped a shit load

[jrox5150]

nice axe bro!! :)

[countflanders]

what the fuck there is no 25th fret

[evilotto77cheese]

@countflanders Try and read it more carefully - it's a bend

[thenoobtech]

@evilotto77cheese hi im thinking getting a dean from hell ! for 900 dollars is it worth it ?

[mesiebooga]

@thenoobtech Don't know about the new Korean ones but I have an 06 china one. The koreans are supposed to be better but from what I hear all Dean imports are hit or miss by miles. I got lucky with mine and I love it but there's hundreds of horror stories. Mine is made out of 5 pieces on just the body, another guy had 8. Good guitars other than that, just try it out first.

[Shenanigasm]

@countflanders lmao did you even think about bending it?

[MrJackWrightable]

@countflanders technically your right, but that doesnt mean you cant bend the string so that the note goes to what would technically labeled the 25th fret, whether its there physically or not

[RZ350LC]

Thanks. It actually looks vaguely possible to play now! Tired of playing rhythm.

[PattetheBeast]

wow. your pinky looks retarded

[moko9hoko]

plz people stop doing this in drop d cause it's not!!!!!

[Teebonesky]

thanks for this i actually learned how to play it right! nice "dean from hell"!

[DrewHibler]

badass lesson dude. not much more to say

[disturbedrocks1996]

RE!SPECT! WALK!

[SerchTV]

GREAT!!!!!

The "Fake Echo" part, the guitarrist of my band call it "The Mario Bros' jumps" part

[dazzitboy]

Is it a bad thing to hammer-on and pull-off on the parts with the 12 15 12 15 frets? I saw guitar world tabs that's like yours

[evilotto77cheese]

@dazzitboy It's not bad at all - that's how Dime played it. I only picked all the notes so they'd be clean and easy to hear

[dazzitboy]

@evilotto77cheese damn you pretty good

[Barnarded]

Hey so you're playing this guitar in standard tuning then? So i dont have to drop down for this solo then? I can just play this in standard like you?

[evilotto77cheese]

@Barnarded The actual song is played in D-standard tuning down 1/4, so you'll be using the exact same frets as I'm using here, but in the correct tuning :)

[leftyguitardude1]

@Barnarded actually, the way dime tuned it for this song is 1 and 1/4 steps down, not standard or drop d. he's also tuned like this for i'm broken, a new level, 5 minutes alone, and others. for songs that most people think is in standard like mouth for war or cowboys from hell its actually a 1/4 step down than standard, I guess dime does that to give it his own flavor and a little more crunch.

[Dlaybassmaster]

@evilotto77cheese For any of Pantera's stuff, try out Dimebag's signature strings from DR. Fuckin' love how they feel like 10's which they are but bent like 9's!

[bkm504]

@terrorking01 the whole point of saying its a step down is why he is playing it the way he is

[terrorking01]

@evilotto77cheese

well tab fragments is really confusing. i had a second look it was correctly tabbed

[wrspclan09]

i really need a electric guitar

[cobraopts7]

@wrspclan09 correction you need a good electric guitar

[GoDoFTHUNDER95]

thanx man good lesson

[ninjangbasag]

man.. your so cool!! amazing!!

[lopedogg55]

Great lesson and thank you for posting the tabs on the video, made learning this solo much easier. Again thanks, good video

[tumabugi]

can you make lesson for cowboys from hell solo?

[tonyborbony]

ehhh... couldn't you use the fine tuners on the tremolo to tune it down a whole step? I usually use the fine tuners when I go to Drop D but I dunno if it works for a whole step....

[cjo2112]

evilotto77cheese I have to say thank you so much for doing and posting, you saved me hours of figuring it out - you're a fine player, God Bless. Thanks.

[PaperMinotaur]

Woot! Use Elixer!

[gibsondoubleneck]

THANK YOU FOR TABS Finaly!!

[Darioguitarro]

men exelent .. Thanks for you great aport.... From Colombia THanks....

Your guitar is so beautiful monster

[djd259th]

Awesome! I love your sound.

[s3k71on8]

the first time ive seen "ish" in a tab

[rocker78302]

thanks :D

[AncientMariner22]

thanks man a bunch. i gotta learn this by tuesday, cause im playing guitar at my school and im doing this solo.

[nachtfurzer1]

thx !

[CleburneZEROSk8er]

No. He played a whole step down and an extra quarter step down. I have some of his old guitar world columns he did

[MaSt3rDeBaTeR]

Actually your an idiot

[bodomx61x]

@Bloodsquirt86 ur modest lol

[sirsicklick]

It wasn't a step down. It was a step down and flatted. Aka one and a quarter step down.

[liranmaster]

your video is fine, but you must fix the sound.

[ojsdaddy]

@liranmaster you must stfu and cry less

[MattHazard1]

sweet guitar dude

[tallguy789]

the tuning is D 1/4 standard which is D standard and is dropped a quarter step

[ericfuge]

actually, the real tuning of this song is 1. tune to c sharp standard. 2. tune up a quarter of a step. im not sure if thats the same as d tuning a quarter of a step but what i did sounds good too

[GuitarHeroMaster1125]

O sry bro. nice job though.

[GuitarHeroMaster1125]

I dont get that u sayed it should be played with the neck pickup, when u r playing with the middle pickup.

[straight138edge]

so are you playing this two frets lower? or just in e standard?

[SelfDestruction7]

There's a lesson for it but it's hard to understand.

I'll send you the video.

[SelfDestruction7]

Dude if you know the solo to a new level then you should do a lesson for that.

Your lesson on walk helped me a lot!

Thanks man!

[krusty6sic6]

Don't mean to sound like a dick but... the slide part you do it 5 times its only 4 slides and you lead off with your fret hand you should lead off with your picking hand.

[gothmetalgrungecore]

pretty sweet, i think i need to look at tablature tho

[andybaddley]

the riff at 0:24 is a bitch

[humanice2]

man this is played so fast, I'll never be this good at guitar, damn it. if it were ever to me doing the solo I'd do it in some cheap easy way. doing the fake echo is kinda easy

[GONGINATER209]

where da tabs at dude!!!

[vivalasexy]

this isnt whole step down. Its a whole and also a quarter step down

[Krooster26]

@vivalasexy does it really matter? i mean its not like your going to go out of your way to tune the extra quarter down...

[vivalasexy]

@Krooster26 If ur playin by ur self no. But if u wanna play along ye. It only takes a few seconds and improves makes it sound accurate. Why wouldnt u do ?

[jackassfilms69]

the wolf in the background was tripping me out

[pioneerXpete]

He tuned all of his guitars down a 1/4 step in addition to the other tunings, if you want to get real technical about it.

[PS3POWERFTW]

Nice one, got that suckkka down note for note :P thanks for posting

[damianw43]

thanks for posting the vibeo trying to learn it for my school talent show

[ChristianRocks666]

Thanks man ! :D.. Been playing for about a year now and ive mastered this shit pretty sick ;p.. Thanks for the lesson dude! :D

[taskindroho]

[seannyateam76]

*Phew* Ok, I've been playing for 3 and I can't play this yet, thought I was getting behind :P

[DaveSustaine]

He'srly good at picking, but shit at everything else though.

[seannyateam76]

Erm, thanks?

[seannyateam76]

How long did it take you to learn this solo? How long have you been playing?

[MVBL19]

[funeral98]

hey man you sort of missed and dimbag didn`t use to drop down to D.

he used to drop down btwa a step and a quarter

[99TheCaptain99]

are you using you amps built in distortion

[ibanezmaster652]

i am the same, the way u use ur pinky, when i play i only really solo with those 3 the pinky for me just wants to sit low

[gnx343]

he didnt play drop d he played quarter step down retard

[TheDarkerKnight1995]

he didn't say drop d retard, he said one step down and its not just a quarte

[gnx343]

no some ass hole posted a comment say it was clearly drop d

[TheDarkerKnight1995]
