Steve-O, thanks so much for posting this video. I know it's been on here for awhile, but I just found it. All three parts have been very useful to me. Don't pay any attention to the critics, you're doing just fine.
Forgot to add that there is two other quick stops in the intro just after the pull offs , this will give you the correct feel of the song. First one is when you come back to the e and b string and the second is after the slide to the fifth fret. Give these spots the same quick stops as the quick stops on the g string 3rd fret towards the end of the intro riff.
You are very close to the record and a job well done. Add a very quick delay and that will give you the scratch sound you hear in the original recording. Also all pull offs come to a quick stop which gives this song its great sound.
Why is it that people can't understand that a guitar neck is set up so every note, and chord has multiple places it can be played and still be EXACTLY right. I can play a solo 15 different ways and it can be right. Stop looking at where a guys hands are on the original, and they jumping on everyone on YouTube for not "playing it right"
sounds good, you got the groove, and more importantly you are showing people how to play some of the greatest Canadian licks ever written. Anyways, I was only like 10 years old when this came out, and actually glad I found your channel as to be reminded of all these great classic rock riffs. THANKS!
Don't even bother with the haters--this is pretty close to dead nuts on, dude. Anyone who heard this would INSTANTLY know what you were playing. A hell of a lot closer than I'd have gotten on my own. Thanks!
lol...i get tired of some people on here that like to look at not 'playing it exactly' like the record as some kind of flaw...in my opinion,you gain more by playing it 'not exact'...anyhow i did think your lesson was pretty darn close to 'kim mitchell'...
great lesson man !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think this is great, thanks.
Just a thought, but I've found it easier playing it in "E" instead of "F" or using a capo at fret #1 just because you can use more open strings.

This was done with a POD XT. I think I just used the EJ CLEAN setting, with the chorus turned off.
