Mr Brightside by the killers guitar session

[jassonmc94]

What Tunning?

[Jazzman1985]

You use only upstrokes at the last notes, don't you? No alternate picking?

[yuchubber]

So wrong

[gutosegatta]

thank you so much dude

[34sweetrevenge]

im still stuck on how to tune the guitar to this song fk....still gonna long way to go lol

[MrAndrewshepard]

@34sweetrevenge whats so hard about it, you just tune your strings half a step down

[zaigakujin]

cooool! :)) even though i know it's hard i'm very inspired!!

[MauriTa16]

tabs pleaaase



[Think0Like0Cheese]

what are the names of those chords?

[musicman777lespaul]

Thx!

Nice teaching.

[mguygh]

not as haard as i expected but it is tricky

[laggy24hOUrs]

aaah so hard!!

[TheHaiiiJuan]

well my electric is broken so im trying this on an acoustic, HARD ITS SO LOL

[skatedylan98]

This is HAAAAAAAAARD!

[TristanMachuwano1998]

thatnk you so much

[zomb3kill3r]

my pinky is weak, i cant hold the 4th string down :'''(

[IamDuhmb]

The shapes only get more unique in the song... wish you showed the rest.

[telecasterman18]

You even look a little like Dave Keuning. Lol. Good video!

[gsxr7operator]

SIMPLY THE BEST "HOW TO" SO FAR

[CrimsonHeart7]

turn distortion down to an overdrive guitar sound, turn up "reverb" to get the echo sound, then tune the whole guitar down 1/2

all you need is an electric guitar, and an amp with reverb to get the real deal sound, and someone also said the room makes a difference, but not with earphones on. so do that up guys :)

[killaplaya222]

anyone know the chords?

[ptingjuy007]

@killaplaya222

verses: C B F F

pre-chorus: Am G F

Chorus: CF Am G there:))

[killaplaya222]

thank you =)

[ptingjuy007]

@killaplaya222 no problem

[GmacaNo1]

Carnt get the sound rite . What r the settings or do I need to buy anything ?? Desperate to learn this . Please help

[ACDCv5150II]

u need to get the right distroted sound,it differs by amp,room ect. also you need some effects

[chris313]

@GmacaNo1 As for sound, if your amp doesn't come with a form of distortion in itself, then you would need to get a distortion pedal.

A tube screamer would be good, because this song doesn't use a full on metal tone.

[9675243]

which is the distortion?

[ralphylad]

Great tutorial but I aint got a electric so my frets dont go down that far!

[britachi]

wtf!!! io anote los pasos i en modo lento no mui lento no es el mismo prosedimiento le agrego o k aaa io pense k ia estava

[benwolf11]

dude thanx this song is for my sister b-day

[MiiszUniquexX]

do u need an electric guitar for this song, cuz if you do im fucked. Lol

[Yakslipper]

No, you can play it on a harmonica just as easily.

[MiiszUniquexX]

No, I'm just wondering about an acoustic guitar.

[xquickstrykex]

what effects are u using?

[dizzykiwi3]

really helpful but like people say, half step down, no?

other then that pretty nice overview of the intro

[EnjoyThePuff]

thanks, really cool lesson : )

[VargasTriforce]

my open e string doesnt seem to make the same sound...arghh..i try tuning it but i still can't get it.

help?

[oatmealpizza4u]

just make sure it matches the sound as the 4th fret on your B string and it should be in tune

[VargasTriforce]

thanks

[KoolioBoiz]

yamaha sucks balls

[whoch3]

It´s not D! It´s C#!!!

[davic14]

your right, C sharp is correct, at least it sounds better anyway

[tongo311]

@whoch3 its ok fag

[MrsAnaLB]

good, thanks!

[GmacaNo1]

Wicked vid.. Guys the shape is hard but no pain no gain..that's why there called the Killers man.... I can do it slow but I only have a small marshull amp and carnt get the sound quite rite??? Any ideas still learning

[doodleman99]

OMG i am not liking that chord shape :(

[sgddfgfghfgh]

you can say that again...

[doodleman99]

hahaha "be patient it may take a while to get up to full speed"

no shit! this is still annoying the hell out of me :) i still cant do it :D

[7evenfoldXD]

I have that guitar inm blue lmao, its a yamaha

Since when have strats looked anything like that?

[taylordud]

Awsome

[Alyn321]

it is a yamaha u fucking idiots

[pancakeshitta]

ok, but it has a different pickguard

[pancakeshitta]

its not a fender strat, but u got the colour right.

[narutoiscool94]

No, its a strat, trust me.

[rafaelc68]

Nope! - Yamaha Pacifica FTW! I believe it's a 612v from the 90's. maybe you didn't get this model in the states.

But it doesn't really matter does it kids? - eh?

[chosendawn]

Can someone tell me the excact guitar that guys got? (+ the color :D)

[narutoiscool94]

Fender stratocaster, natural wood finish, sparkle pickguard

[T0JVY]

nope.  Tele, know your guitars "mr. expert"

[narutoiscool94]

You're a fuckin idiot. Do you know what a telecaster looks like?

[T0JVY]

no fucken shit.

go get eye drops or goddamn contacts

[narutoiscool94]

Then you would know that its a strat

[T0JVY]

well. if its a strat. then its a custom shop

[Near14]

The wooden finish is called Flamed Maple. You can buy it in sheets, not sure what price it is, but you can get dye for it for a much cooler finish (if you do dye it i would recommend blue or black{they look cool, lol}), look it up ! I was thinking of getting this for my guitar, and theres videos on here to show you how to apply it.

[silentd0ct3r]

yeah very awkward cords

[offpsring123]

i suck at at this shit

[thebestSOHOSgoth]

can i have the tab for it? and what are the amp settings? thanks;]

[thekovers]

?? esta un tono mas alto parece men

[Hen9207]

not really seeing the point of this...not good enough to learn it from...and not fast enough to listen to it as a cover! But nicely played!

[oswaldinnimuse]

[simon13669]

dman that shit sounds so nice starting at :57 nice work i tried playing but the E thin string i dont know how to tune it to E flat so it dont sound like that and the fingering is so freaking hard

[SebAlva]

to tune E string to E flat just make it sound the same as the 4th fret of the B string, and there you go.

[Jimmy1720]

[duffgen62]

Have just discovered, having tried to make these chords, that I must have arthritic fingers. Will have to stick with smoke on the water.

[cosmosmikey]

[snake6000002]

PRETTY SWEET

[screwyou01234]

Damn! I can't do a chord like that that fast! I don't think I can even do a chord like that to begin with XP

[kanadiankid28]

This is crap, you can't see which string he's actually picking and watch the frets at the same time.

[beehen12345]

[lespaulvic]

Thanks for the video on this intro. It is a bit difficult until you get used to playing it. The chords are not something you usually come accross.

[bigryan14]
