Iron Maiden - The Trooper (Solo #1)

[cks350z]

that's a Yamaha RGX121?

[firstroundko108]

Guitar pro FTW! Great job man!

[CoryWong707]

The best cover of this solo iv'e seen

[94ancienter]

The only guy on youtube wich i found playing this perfect was rockaholick1

I think this isnt really perfect cuz the sound doesnt match

[4600andy]

Adrian would be proud!

[raultejedor]

Ok, so he doesn´t deserve a like because he didn´t play the whole song (I thank him since I was searching for just the first solo and that´s exactly what I found here).

But, does he deserve a dislike?, really?

You might not be jealous, but for sure are unfair.

And who´re you to say what he should´ve or not should´ve played?

I hope you play better than you write and punctuate, but I seriously doubt it.

[Kazaskater123]

Spot on. all 20 dislikes are from jealous people.

[seekanddestroykirk]

@Kazaskater123 i disliked and im not jealous because i can play the hole song and for me is very easy to play this if he didnt want to play the whole song he should play the whole solo not the half seriously he played good but he doesnt deserve likes

[freshbuddy]

@seekanddestroykirk

he just wanted to play adrian smith's part i guess.. n he has done a good job. you say it doesn't deserve likes? well, i think it doesn't deserve dislike in any way.. he clearly mentions in the title its solo #1

[freshbuddy]

@seekanddestroykirk

if u can play better than him post a video. we'll be glad to appreciate u. but honestly, anyone can criticize. peace.

[mitikomaikol]

great !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[farragut121]

[SW33PNG]

[ZuperGabo]

[Nevisdpr]

[mercyfullsacro]

[aza46054]

wwwwwwwenaa

[GuitarHero3SH]

P.E.R.F.E.C.T!!!!!!!!

[drakinater]

amazing :O

[fcfabiano]

PERFECT 2!!! xD

[mitikomaikol]

P E R F E C T :D

[777TheNene]

wowww very good!!!!!!! i realy like.

[TheRuobi]

Very clean man....congratz!

[stoob1969]

cool, pentatonic stuff, I look forward to learning this :o) Nice

[avrilrocks5]

you make it look easy that's right..!!

[HellsHighwayTrooper]

what amp u got

[defnist47]

You make this look easy.... skilled bastard xP

[viveksampat]

freakin' awesum!!!

[FrancescoScasciboy]

There is a scecond part of solo.

[leckal]

0:10 holy fuck that's very clean.

I tried practicing this by bending with my middle and ring finger and playing the top notes with pinky and index. And i also picked every note but now when i'm watching this it makes more sense to hammeron and bend only with the middle finger.

[sombra1471]

exelent

[JusticePlayer]

you know some link that have the tablatures from the 2 solos?

[Shred0Ninja411]

Hey man that was really good to let you know that was the best cover of it ive seen today i was getting tired of shit covers but this one is actually good!

[CloudiHoe]

i know this solo now xD

just gettin it up to speed with this vid

thank you oh mighty video sender.

[ProffaSam]

I cant do that 0:10 :-( !! It sounds terrible when I try!

[88stockmj]

@ProffaSam takes a bit of practice and use just ur middle finger for the bend. I have a video slowing the whole thing down if your interested.

[leeb55]

pretty good

[koolj2233]

I think 0:15 is way easier than 0:10.

tha only hard part to me about 0:10 is the picking part

[CloudiHoe]

@koolj2233

i find the bending bit hard =/

tried to do it by hammering on the 16 but that just made it harder xD

got any tips for bending faster?

[GrandeSombrero]

I can play all of this but not at the same speed as this guy! But I started practicing today so I hope one day I will play as good as you! well done

[sergioslashfan]

awesome!

[DaMiaNBraD666]

so can i!!!

[tyrantsbane]

well done dude!

[SGguy0425]

8 bit version backing track? nice

[Steve128967]

Probably GuitarPro

[marcussilvamgs]

The 0:10 part is impossible D: But the 0:15 part i already learned ^^

[Louisthefish23]

Yer same here XD

[motorxtp199]

0:10 is alot easier than 0:15 ive learned both parts.

[quazimoto77]

@motorxtp199 agreed lol but its more impressive when you hear 0:10 lol

[LedKenji666]

@motorxtp199 for me 0:15 is WAAAAY easier

[motorxtp199]

@ledkenji666 its all personal preference and im sure it is easier for you

[NapalmNewt]

At :15 are you playing the high e string 19th fret (B note) with your pinkie or ring finger?

[dethklok111]

i came at :10

[Divljina89]

I am impressed at 0:10 because rarely anyone plays that well! Cheers!

[SamboraCrazed]

i find that bit a lot simpler than 0:15 just cant do tht bit its anoying :) but ive only been playign for 4 months :L and playign trooper for 2hours :D

[Divljina89]

He he yeah, it bugged me also... I started slowly than increased speed over time, it took me like a week! But that nasty one at 0:10 gave me the hard time!

[LilFarrellyJunior]

glad to know im ot the only one :)

[fortzarapid09]

2 sick .......

[AyeVL]

using guitar pro??

[creamydinkly]

"u missed 2 notes and got 1 wrong" wtf? ok then rain man :L

[wangotangowhoo1234]

[StorkReaver]

u missed 2 notes and got 1 wrong. overall...perfect! even adrian himself fails sometimes!

[testiculardestroyer]

perfect solo good job 5/5

[yaguinhobr]

[frenchtoasty17]

your trolling sucks. Get a life.

[laxplayer72]

Wow ContageousPyromania u should get a life bud, if it sucks so much why would u comment? Or are u jelous? This guy plays the solo amazing. If u can do any better please let me know

[niceman6]

no he's talking to triangleround

[ContageousPyromania]

I didn't say I could play the guitar. Lol.

Actually read, please.

[Dvidps4]

nice playing!

[worldslayer]

congrats on criticizing other people's guitar skills when you can even hit an open note.

[ContageousPyromania]

The way you act makes it seem like you know nothing about guitar. Okay, if you play guitar, that's great, but post a video of you playing, then I'll believe what you say.

But fine something better to do than sit and flame on Youtube. This guy is great, and it sounds almost exactly as Iron Maiden plays it.

Oh and you call me a kid? You're the one who calls someone a turd.

Lmao.

[travdogger]

then you sign off like a teenage girl using an abbreviation such as LMAO!!

[ContageousPyromania]

Post a video of you doing better.

Faggot.

Find something better to do with your life than flaming on Youtube.

Maybe learn how to play the guitar?

[jspiolo]

really good men 5/5!!!

[amocrunner]

[Slushplop]

[RunOut1724]

He must be referring to himself as gay, because the guitar playing was spot on.

[laxplayer72]

[kaze588]
