Van Halen "Mean Street" Intro

[SmeagolLovesPrecious]

that 10th fret harmonic always screws me at the end

[BlackWolfgang70]

[younakahara]

Hey BlackWolfgang70, thanx for the comment. I've improved a little bit since this video was taken but it's still a difficult one to play. Cheers!

if this is on guitar hero van halen, it'll definitely be one of the hardest songs.

[bolygan]

smoking brother.....

[jizzmonger]

Great job!

[bwlong]

very nice but muffled...

[younakahara]

Hi bwlong,thanks for the comment. Oooop! I think you're right...I guess the real sound is with more treble and deep over dirive. Each notes should be more pronounced. I've fooled around with my effects but I can't make the sound. I'll try to post a better one someday. Thanks.

[bwlong]

my bad - was drinking some beers before when i commented. i was muffled. sounds good

[JesseGuitar07]

Excellent!

[younakahara]

Hi JesseGuitar07, thanx for the compliment.Actually, I'm not yet satisfied with my performance... The problem is that I can't go any further. I appreciate your comment anyways.

[JesseGuitar07]

no worries!

all the best

keep in touch:)
