  • very good

    

  • And you say slash isn't unique? Then show me someone you can copy the sound when he's bending up the 7th and 8th fret @ 0:05 !! I've watched this video for almost 3 month, still not being able to replicate it, damn! And yes this 1 second part is the best ever tiny bit of the solo :D.

    Btw. this is the best live performance of this solo IMO. Its even better then the studio version for sure, isn't it ?

  • I love Axl's dance lol

  • I'm sorry, but axl looks like a fag here, lmfaoo!!

  • Axl, just stop...

  • Melhor Guitarrista \õ/

  • kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk 0:17 kkkkkkkkkkkk

  • Slash é o melhor.

  • mehhh...

  • Slash said that this is a difficult solo to play....... no its not...

  • @14JudasPriest Notice the beginning of the song... one big solo! :)

  • @14JudasPriest no solo, but whole song....there are a lot of diferent parts....and this song is very hard for learn

  • @14JudasPriest yes its not... because he said its the most challenging solo and needs a lot of focus... check your facts...

  • @daveghel23 most difficult or challenging it does not need so much focus

  • "Man this is a pretty peaceful solo...wait..what the fuck is that...Axl where are your pants...what are you doing..."

  • ...Oh Axl, you are the worst front man ever...

  • Axl doing the penguin dance

  • @sparkPA ajajajajaja me hizo reir.

  • This is challenging? This is even remotely CHALLENGING?

    I would have to guess that ignoring the bouncing fag on stage might be hard to do but it is Axl that makes him look, um, talented. When I was 16 I was playing this lame style of crap - that was in the 70's. Decades later, what is his excuse?

    This is just one more video that supports the claim I have made here many times: Slash is a hack.

    Let the ignorati begin to defend this twerp.

  • @toetapper04 You're around 50 years of age and you still think guitar is a competition?

    Or you think Slash doesn't have skills? I think he's over-rated but you'd have to be a moron to say he's a hack.

  • @Commiteee hear hear

  • @Commiteee there are millions of awesome guitar players with full on speed and scales memorized..... but that knows how to express the feelings in a melody... only a few... guitar us not technique, its pure feeling... and Slash always knew how to do it... in another 50 years you will listen to Slash's guitar sound and you will know... this is Slash.... and that's the difference.... :)

  • @Commiteee alot of people have more technical ability than slash but half that stuff you can learn out of a book but slash is an outstanding musician who can speak through his guitar so to me he isnt over rated but merely you judge him with the wrong scale but my opinion is one o many there just like asses everyone has one :) so lets just jam

  • @Commiteee Like what you say, it's to true. But i have one more thing to add, this is a ballad, and if toetapper think that he should sweep and tap and play as fast as possible during a ballad, he could just have put down his guitar in the 70's and never taken it up again.

  • this was a bad bend

  • Fuck those 57 people!

  • Hmm...he says this is his most challenging solo, i`m not Slash, but i can`t figure out why it would be..

    PS: Axl looks/acts like a fool.

  • @donSparda axl is so funny!

  • @donSparda Nope. You can just see how he enjoys the music that their playing. That's amazing.

  • @donSparda dude, do you play guitar? or anything in music? he ment that the whole song is challenging to play, and it is, as i'm myself a guitar player.. the song lests 9 min. and you have to be sharp all the time, to get all the notes right! thats why! gr

  • I would give my left ball, for this particular amp he used XD

  • Honestly, those bends and vibratos sound just horrible, unbelieveable.

  • the thing about slash is he is no technical, he plays by his feelings and not grounded by how many notes you can do and how fast you can play, that separates him from other guitar players, he is good on his own way.

  • slash is the sexiest man in the world! i <3 him!!!!

  • Axel Rose is such a faggot.

  • now i have to find GhostOGKush's comment... >:/

  • @Ketrico-- The players I Listed are NOT shredders.. They are great players. get your head out of yer arse,, and learn soemthing

  • gunterslowsh

    

  • gunterslowsh

    

  • I hope that man got his stolen trousers back after the show.

  • Comment removed

  • I love his shirt

  • He had to concentrate to play this

  • slash said this is hardest solo cause he actually has to concentrate on it.. THATS IT? JUST CONCENTRATE i envy u and ur talent slash.

  • @kungfudragon99

    Watch the video interview again- the guy who titled it is a jackass

    Slash was talking about playing the entire song, with all the little arrangement changes, notes, and nuances without any mistakes.

  • WTF @ 0:17

    

  • @AlterEgoEffectors drugs dude ... drugs ..... HAHAHHAHA

  • @MrLipesalles

    HAHA! 

  • @AlterEgoEffectors That's just Axl....

  • @AlterEgoEffectors Typical Axl moment.

  • @FinalFantasyCenter

    lol totally -)

  • @AlterEgoEffectors I wonder how stoned he was in that concert;

  • @AlterEgoEffectors Exactly...

  • @AlterEgoEffectors Who's that chick dancing around on stage? Someone should really get her back to the crowd...

  • @ARom16 LOL. That's their male vocalist named Axl.

  • @AlterEgoEffectors Not hearing this song before I thought you were on about a part of the solo but then I just pissed myself.

  • @AlterEgoEffectors HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAH

  • @AlterEgoEffectors kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk Axl é Fodah \o/

  • Comment removed

  • @AlterEgoEffectors yeah i hate that guy

  • @AlterEgoEffectors Its called drugs and rock n roll. \m/

  • 48 peoples are jealousy!!!!

  • i wold give my two arms and legs just to hear that song in live with the entire band playing it

  • slash says this is the hardest solo for him to play!!! Buckethead could play this with his ass!!

  • @phuckethead85 I think Slash ment to whole song. But Buckethead would still be able to play this with his ass.

  • That guitar sound effect he`s famous for, That sort of squeaking whine tone ( Apparently you can buy the " Slash " effects box ) Well, I believe he ripped the sound off the guitarist off R.E.O Speedwagon, There`s a solo in one of their songs, And the sound and style is identical, Have a listen for yourself to the solo on " Keep on loving you "

  • @xmoroseguyx if you talk like that, why are you watching these vids? everything jtdonner1 said is true...and yeah I bet he was listening speedwagon because they are soooooooo famous?? GET A LIFE

  • @RockerCroatia Why am I watching Guns N Roses video`s ? Because I like them, You should understand at fifteen years old, I was listening to them before you were born, And slash is way older than me, He would have heard of R.E.O Speedwagon growing up

  • lmao its trendy to say slash is over rated??!! nah the truth is it trendy to just be jealous of epicness bahaha, slash is DOPE!

  • that's the 3 one, one of my favourite solos

  • cool solo

  • For me THIS is the best performance of this solo ever, even better the the record imho

  • Why is Axel bending over during the solo?

  • Slash simply outclassed GnR, thats all there is to say he was better than that and he moved forward

  • I guess that in these days of digital perfection, people have forgotten what it means to make MUSIC - like, sweating ,fingers flying, with a contorted face ;-) the older ones amongst us remember a time when guitar playingwasn't sterile, you could hear little things like fingers moving from one tune to the next. That is not laziness or a lack of talent but simply human! Mocking talents like Slash must be easy when you are 15 and know guitar play just from your WII or 360 or else ...

  • lol he is drunk as fuck ofc it wont sound perfect and yes slash is one of the best.

  • Everyone is so stupid. Axl started being a dick to his bandmates because they were always fucked up on alchohol or drugs. Axl wasnt addicted to anything but Guns n Roses

  • axl rose can go die

    :)

  • his guitar is just too sexy

  • @Reamplification

    Shut up.

  • I always relate Axl to a nigger; aggressive, ugly and cocky.

  • @Reamplification that's racism man and it isn't funny if it's a joke, btw axl was a great singer back then, who cares about his looks, behaviour....

  • @k1koth3gre4t Sorry if I offended you in any way, I just don't like Axl being/have been cocky to bands like Nirvana and Motörhead. He's a jerk

  • @Reamplification Not me, but black men aren't like that man wtf, there are way more white people like us that have been using black people in the past and even now there are more white people that base their opinion on prejudices, which aren't true for 90% of the black people, so that makes you worse than them... And about Axl, you can hate him for some reason but he'll will always be one of the best rock/metal singers of all time, he WAS kinda cool though, so stop being a jerk about it...

  • @k1koth3gre4t The guy's right.

    Axl is and always was an utter prick. Sure, he can sing, but that's not so hard.

    Now being able to sing and not be a prancing, drugged up cunt to random people who shared a spotlight pretty much confers his fitting title of "jerk"

    It's kind of like the pretty blonde at the party. She's popular for what she can do. Not for the fact that she's thick as shit and a bitch to every other girl.

  • Slash is a great composer, he creates beautiful melodies using different modes, and creating his own scales. He plays with intent. Does that make him great? No, what makes him great is that he is still doing it.

  • @MrUSArmyBand why wouldn't he be still doing it? he's just 45 years old. he would be a true legend if he still does that when he's as old as jimmy page, joe perry, keith richards, david guilmour etc

  • @mkwlord What I meant by that was: He can still do it, he wasn't just a "1 hit wonder." I hope to see him still playing in 2025 and beyond.

  • @MrUSArmyBand different modes and scales? "Hmmm... I think I'll throw in some minor pentatonic, maybe a dorian lick here. Done."

  • @dimlightbulb10 Honestly I'm not sure if that was supposed to be mockery but I think we have all heard guitarist's that are a little too comfortable in the pentatonic scales.

  • @MrUSArmyBand slash doesnt make his own scales, or even use modes, do you know anything about music theory?

  • Comment removed

  • @WILLtTHOMPSON2906 Actually I do. I have been playing for fifteen years, and I am in my 3rd year of music theory at UNCG School of music. Slash doesn't use modes? That's strange I coulda swore I keep hearing Mixolydian in Sweet Child of Mine's buildup, whether or not it is on purpose makes no real difference, playing it is playing it. And he does not play major pentatonic scales note per note all the time, therefore making it a derivative, and in a sense, making it "his own" scale.

  • @MrUSArmyBand Ever heard of Mixolydian and aeolian modes?

  • @SparcoC4 Sure have, but I prefer locrian, kinda dark. lol

  • Guys, I just found out the truth. Slash ain't real. It is just one of our parents in a suit:O

  • Great band ruined by simple assholism. Sad

  • this solo doesnt seem so hard for once O_O

  • damn, axel looks like a fucking idiot.

  • @gowplayer2 he always does compared to Slash

  • hes not the best guitarist hes not even close,honestly hes not even tht great.but what matters in the end is how the music sounds ,and how the group sounds as a whole.

  • how can anyone choose 'The' best guitarist? every guitarist has something unique which stands out as compared to other guitarists, and vice versa. For example, one guitarist may be able to play really heavily and fast, which metal fans could say is the best guitarist. Slash plays with a lot of emotion and variation which will appeal to another group of people. Difficult to actually claim someone as the best guitarist

  • slash= god

  • @thecrazymoose98 axel = idiot

  • greatest what of all time? guiytarist? lol ever hear Mike stern, Pat metheny, Robben Ford?? Slash wouild barely know what the fuck they are even playing

  • @augfive No one freaking cares about those shredders, dude. Get real

  • SO WHO WOULD BE THE 10 BEST GUITARIST???

    flyingmanforfun

  • slash is sooooooooooooooooooooooooo OVERRATED to me he would not be in the top 10  best guitarist

  • @flyingmanforfun

    SO WHO WOULD BE THE 10 BEST GUITARIST???

    flyingmanforfun

  • @flyingmanforfun then why do you watch his videos?

  • Axl Rose, like Clapton, Knopfler and Santana don't rely on the whittely-whittely-whittley of a shredder. They play with tone and emotion. Their arrangements is what makes them nice to listen to. Malmsteen, Romero, Stump are great, but they don't really write nice melodies or memorable riffs.

  • @Deathtone6666 Thats the most stupid I've ever heard

  • @Deathtone6666 Why do you visit this page, just to say that Slash sucks dick?

  • @Deathtone6666 , someone that says "xxx sucks dick" almost always sucks a lot of dick themselves... Maybe if you get the penis out of your mouth long enough to actually listen to Slash play you would know better

  • he's fucking sexy. and his solo's are amazing. my fave guitarist EVER!

  • Axl is a retard to do stuff he knows pisses off that amazing guitarist and the rest of the band

  • Slash at his best is not even close to average

  • yo me lo se =)

  • I really liked the camera take, Axl's dance (obviously) and lastly......Slash's guitar playing :D

  • lol axl is a genius and a diehard

  • God Axel is a freakin weirdo. lol

  • What the fuck was that fucking moronic Axl doing anyways?

  • I love the Slash parts in this song, but most of Axl's singing is kinda boring to me

  • hey, Mr.Bungle's old bassist wore a swiss schoolgirl outfit for the Bizzarfest in 08,

    so i think theres no question of his gayness...

  • thumbs up if you agree axl has the best fucking look in the world! i mean, who'd dare to wear such a combination??

  • @hary202 Fuck you, thumbwhore.

  • can someone explain why to lead singer is hopping and twirling around like a fairy

  • @questionauthority22 Stupid Question, if you're a Gn'R-Fan, you know that ''fairy'' is called an Axl

  • @questionauthority22 cause he's a rock star and can do whatever the fuck he wants I guess

  • @willzer808 i guess you need to justify why he is gay...hey whatever floats your boat man not trying to run on your parade just expressing the way i feel dude...freee speech is beautiful isnt it...lol

  • """"I have a solo cover of this song...check it out...pls. rate and comment...""""

  • stupid gay axl

  • It's trendy to say Slash is overrated. People think they sound sophisticated by saying it.. Slash is undeniably great. That's why he's so famous. He didn't luck into G n R. G n R made several Stairway to Heaven-level epic songs, in large part because of Slash's playing--and *writing.* Is he the greatest of all time? I don't know, but he's great, and there certainly have not been many better. That's why he's still going 20 years later. Slash is a player and a composer of the highest order.

  • @jtdonner1 BWWWAAAHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA puke!

  • @jtdonner1 @jtdonner1 actually, no. Slash is really overrated, all he does is just doing the same licks over and over, in every solo... he doesn't do a single intonated bending, he doesn't do a single timed vibrato, ever. and let's talk about writing, the songs are banal and simple, and by the way, izzy was the writer of the majority of them... and please, a player and composer of the higher order? you need to listen to music

  • @BeboRock91 Yeah yeah, that's a popular opinion to have. It's a myth that Izzy wrote the songs. G n R put out about epic songs that are comparable to Stairway to Heaven.

  • @SkirtSoPlain so it's a myth written in the credits of the songs... interesting view...

  • @BeboRock91 Guitar is so much more than intonated bending and timed vibratos. Guitar is about the SOUL. Vinnie Vincent could shred with anyone on the planet but his playing was HOLLOW. When you put on Sweet Child O Mine and you hear those opening notes and it hypnotizes you and takes you back to a time and place...that's what music is about. The 5th graders at my kid's school know these songs and they're 11. They don't give a damn about Yngwie Malmsteen. Understand?

  • @grantorino2009 everytime everyone talks about SOUL, as of something undeniable and objective, well, it's not. I don't deny that those notes could give you emotions but his playing is poor, and he is overrated. Now you can listen whatever you like, absolutely, but his playing is just poor, and nothing special, just the same things that everyone plays over and over, the same bluesy licks etc. I like to think at music as something more than just that. And still I find GnR a mediocre band at best.

  • @jtdonner1 plus, we must think that Slash is the last (let's say) guitar hero

  • Problem with most people today, they think that Rock/Metal is dead. Yes, Slash is one of the best.... for his time (80's/90's) but, just like everything, it progresses. The two best guitar players in the world (in my opinion) are Tosin Abasi and Misha Mansoor. I'm not saying Slash isn't good, he just has very simple capabilities compared to these two. Look them up.

  • @jtdonner1 Now Rose on the other hand.....

  • @jtdonner1 Greatest? No. But he did write 3 of the greatest songs of all time. A great guitarist yes, the best? No.

  • @jtdonner1 According to your opinion

  • @jtdonner1 Still overrated.

  • @marvottis why are you so trendy?

  • @jtdonner1 him, zakk, and frusciante man

  • @jtdonner1 definitely not good guitarist maybe, composer naw dawg

  • @jtdonner1 hes not much of a composer he even says in interviews that if a song wasint finished in a day then theyd jus trash it and that most gnr songs wrote themselves

  • @jtdonner1 Although He's not a shredder (and there are lots of better guitar player), he still rock.

  • @jtdonner1 they didnt eve get close to Stairway to heaven level... i dont think slash is overrated (altough there is mass of better guitar players than him - especially in blues genre) but now you just totally overrated their band

  • Comment removed

  • whenever i watch slash play guitar i think to myself oh thats not so hard i can play that and then i try... to bad its always a fail... i could only wish i had a fraction of his abilities

  • @delatorred07 What? You can't bring yourself to be lazy when you bend and never be on pitch? It's easy for Slash.

  • @delatorred07 you need to study pentatonics

  • dam that solo kicks, starting learning it bout 2 yrs ago but i gaveup on it to work on sweet child, think its time to go back to it n give it another try. Iiiil;)

  • i dont understand why in gnr concerts the guitar volume was so soft compared to the drums...

  • Axl rose is an ass hole.

  • @GhostOGKush everyone wants to kick you in the face for that stupid statement

  • @SleepingInTheFire no everyone wants to kick you for liking the top hat clown

  • @GhostOGKush yeah , you and 39 others, while 375000 other people wanna kick you in the balls for WEARING (idiot) that stupid face(cant see it know its stupid)

  • @GhostOGKush cock biting fuck tard.

  • @GhostOGKush Loooooooooooool you idiot, sometimes you should just keep that stuff in your mind to stop the whole of youtube hate on you!!!

  • @GhostOGKush It's a trademark of his. Yeah, it may not look as cool if he was just another rockstar, but he's Slash. He's a freaking legend and you take his hat, you take his name. The guitar and sound will be the same, but what would he be without it? Weather you like it or not, he's got the hat and you can't do shit about it

  • @FreeHugs330 He actually looks much cooler than other rockstars ;D Haha

  • @FreeHugs330 Weather you like it or not, weather weather weather weather weather weather weather weather

  • terrible vibrato
