you are much clear

[AKExterminator]

once i buy my guitar i can learn this lol

[tomcaat1]

first one to ask about sheet music gets cuffed hard on the hed.

[contact1araya]

You can hide the pick, use fingers, you can use pick and fingers like the reverend, or just pick like SRV in Sweet little thing.... I like SRV cause you can ad a downward scratch, makes it more raunchy.

Everyone has a better amp than me >_<

[bkljaydee]

I agree....if someone is trying to be so exact and like gibbons...why are they trying to learn it on you tube..Good interpretation man.!

[johnstangg]

At 4:40 we learn that you can actually riff nicely

[billmiller3rd]

This is Very nice helpful and understandable for a newbe... Thanks posting it

[Ordrtolar]

Great lesson, helped me out there ^^

[nobodyunoatall]

there's always some a-hole like that.... billy gibbons doesn't do that exactly. blah blah blah. it sounds incredible! thanks for helping me.

[alexc475]

thanks for how to play the intro i had quite a bit trouble getting that part to sound right now i just need to find out the amp settings

[GibsonGuitarsFan]

LIKEEEEEE!!!!

[rossman265]

Thanks for the lesson

[timber2saw]

Thanks. good instruction. love the flying fingers at 4:39.

[ElTone43]

I have been learning how to play this song and it never sounded right, the groove just never happened. After watching your demo I went and plugged in and had it together the first time through. Your right, this song is all about "Feel". If you dont have it, you wont get it.

[ilovechugs]

sweet black guitar strings.

[Zickzackyo]

Thanks, good job.

[bobcatharris]

Nice video lesson. Well done!

[BattleOfGuitaMastas]

[sasquatch1208]

[DAMIANewmfrosfy]

[SinetMariusYo]

[imcrazyo]

wat kind of guitar are you playing?

[jimosity]

It's a Peavey Wolfgang USA Special with EMGs.

[frazierliowr]

I love this song I was looking for the ringtone forever cuz I need to have this on my phone I finally found it at DownloadEveryTone . com if u would like to get it

[fender7375]

@frazierliowr FUCK YOUR RINGTONE

[TYDUCK09]

Wow thanks alot. That was so useful.

[emrxsteelmech]

that intro is a lot more accurate than the way I've been playing it, thanks

[Texasredfish5114]

dude is that a wolfgang playin??

[paupur]

I agree that this is YOUR interpretation, but it's not right. Billy uses a PICK and 2 fingers, doesn't pull of with his pinkie. Go back and listen to the original also. I have it right in front of me. See closeups of Billy at ZZ TOP-LA GRANGE LIVE IN TEXAS posted by sunrisefog

[AmnellAndreas]

So you are complaining here as well you guitar hater. stop complaining you complete moron. your so yealous as you just can get! shut up and just listen. your like sunrisefog so much that you just have to keep talking about him!

[jimosity]

I didn't say that I was channeling Billy Gibbons and playing exactly the same as he does.

It's not like my version sounds so damn different that it's a totally different song though, is it?

You really want to sound so completely accurate even so much so that you play with the same fingers as the originals that you eliminate any chance of developing your own style? Nobody sounds like Billy Gibbons and wasting your life trying to BE him is an exercise in futility.

[SundanceGS]

@jimosity Agreed!

[ivancc0502]

great video!! buen video

me quede con la boca abierta por como tocaste el solo asi de rapidisimo..

congratulationss!!

[joshgarcia93]

great video. just like the revrend Billy G. wrote it. I learned this in 76 from a guy that used to jam with him in houston in the old days. keep up the excellent work !!

[JOHNMOFFETT]

finally a vid lesson that actually grabbed the essence of this riff. No other vids quite had the hammer ons and pull offs that really added the missing elements to this pattern. Nice Job, I can actually play this now.

[kevie954]

my apologies to hitchhiker2nd(or should i call you "skin so soft!" and to everyone else! my comment was meant for another guitar teaching video that was getting bashed for no good reason. Sorry for the mixup. Geeze!

[kevie954]

great video!

ignore the loser comments, you are helping so many!!

[hitchhicker2nd]

there are no looser comments u fuk head suck up

[golfdom1987]

Great video!

[dock534]

is it a down or up stroke?

[boolet7375]

Down... :)

[Simpa20]

Hey man thanks so much i dont think i would've learned this song if i didnt look at this video=)

[deereater82663]

Another great job, hopefully I'll make some progress this week. But I can make a ZZ Top song sound like a slow polka while I try this out. I'll be back, thanks for the video!

[jimosity]

What kind of gear are you using and I can try to give you some pointers...

[KidJUdgedByHIsPAst]

grr...i cant get this my guitar sounds realll weirdd, anny suggestions?
