@privettricker the original solo is mind blowing, billy plays it in the first mode of G minor, dunno how that little guy can stretch those fingers so wide, but I can just barely pull it in the second and third mode. damn that little guy from texas :)
Amazing comments on this vid! To think people actually believe someone has the responsibility to take the time to provide a "slow tutorial" on how to play a song, simply astounds me! Brings to mind the OWS protesters who are totally clueless!
I always enjoy your videos and you do a great job anyone bitching can go fuck themselves put up your own video and show us all those "skills" I own a 70 black beauty and I don't think that makes me better than anyone its about enjoying yourselves, sorry your kids don't call you for anything lol@your life
@axeslinger56 why do you say that bro, hes just a young dude playin some good old shit, we should be proud of him. At least he aint listening to that garbage a lot of the other young cats are listening to, plus he plays a mean axe. Its all good
I buy my gear at the HOG..well,since the 80's...they have so much stuff,they can't count it,and half the time you must be careful not to trip over it all..lol
Hey man. You did great ! If they did better, ask them to give you the link to their video and post a request for everyone to compare the two! You won't hear squat from them again. It's easy to talk, let's see how they walk. good job.
It's not like drumming when you can watch or hear and then simulate....this is guitar-which is more difficult to master.Your manner of reply tells me that i have spoken the truth.The greatest guitarists in the world are humble & quiet.Do you think Robert Fripp walks around proud & boastful about his abilities & accomplishments?I don't think so.
@oLdSkOoLkisS Maybe he doesn't, but then he probably doesn't deal with pricks like you very often. Incidentally, plenty of guitar players learn very well from guitar demos. Your manner of reply tells me that your playing hasn't advanced to that level yet. Finally, I'm not one of the greatest guitarists in the world, so I don't really care how humble and quiet they are. You annoy me, so please go away.
@oLdSkOoLkisS D'aww, little baby needs help with his guitar? Are you one of those rich fucktards that get lessons and still can't play for shit after five years? :3
@Bancroft98 They aren't even true though? He isn't boasting about his abilities, he's just playing guitar on youtube, that's like saying when a guitarist for a band plays a really good/technical solo live, it means that he is boasting about his abilities and how lucky he is to be there.
@TheDoomPig You wouldn't believe how many emails I get from people who assume that posting a video on YouTube means I'm claiming to be the greatest guitar player in history. I'm not even claiming to be the greatest guitar player in my neighborhood!
@privettricker People are stupid. This Bancroft decided to make his stupidity public. You are a great guitar player though, you also have some really beautiful guitars.
To not take the time to give slow tutorials resembles someone who has a need to show how many guitars they have along with their abilities.Is this truly what music is about??
@privettricker Sorry for my remarks...i was just having a little fun.I'm really a drummer...but i'm a big fan of famous guitar "heroes" as we call them.As a tribute to the alive & well Peter Frampton or late Steve Marriott ,could you play a Humble Pie tune-say "30 Days in the Hole" or "Natural Born Boogie" please?Rock On!!
@privettricker Look,i'm "humble"(get it) enough to apologize so let's all drop it ok? Point taken on the response....but not to many people play Humble Pie-so i did not know if you had posted any videos.

@oLdSkOoLkisS
1. To not take the time to search my channel for the many "slow tutorials" I've posted resembles someone who's talking out of their ass.
2. If you're not able to learn from demo videos, perhaps that's a sign that you need to practice more.
3. I honestly don't give a squirt what you think "music is about."
4. Who are you again?
