  • that a triple pickup sg converted to standard double pickup?

  • what is the name of this song ????

  • What pickups are in your guitar to get that sound?

  • @OmniVirus2 And also what string brand and guage?

  • I find it humorous to read all of the people who want to buy your guitars. Get ur own! You rock like no other, other than me.............well, how I want to, anyway! thanks for all you do!

  • Perfect.

  • Excelente, sos un barbaro...!

  • way to nail a song !

  • Can you play That 70's Song?

  • Very good!!! I liked the black thingy!!!

  • its funny that i can only see your arms like they are floating :).. perfect cover!

  • Comment removed

  • finaally talented musician wwho shares, you flipping rock

  • I'm about to get an SG, it's my dream guitar. The first song I plan on playing on it is this. You've really inspired my playing, and who knows? I might get somewhere with the stuff you've taught me. All I need is a good name for the guitar...

  • I heard this song when I was 8 years in 1981 and I love it since those days !! Excellent perform !!

  • @nacholimalynch was 18 in 1981 and loved it too. Cheap Trick is so under rated.

  • Perfection.

  • Frickin Excellant Execution

    Thanks for sharing

  • I am back again....still awesome!

  • You Sir, are my inspiration for playing guitar again after a 22 year break!

  • Juat amazing

  • Is that a Gibson SG? Mine looks exactly like that. Too bad it's sitting in my closet collecting dust since I don't know how to tune a guitar :(

  • @ChristopherD1991 How can you not? Thats the easiest thing about playing guitar...

  • @ChristopherD1991 if you have a mac you should use the garageband tuner

    

  • @ChristopherD1991 If you have no use for it, you can mail it to me. I will give it the care it needs.

  • Well done, sir.

  • sweet!

  • quite probably the best cover I've heard, outstanding.

  • Cool...another....fine song to learn......

  • What do you have for pickups.. 57's?

  • one word OUTSTANDING

  • absolutely amazing! I love to watch you play! I like the songs more than I used to!

  • TWANG?

  • Good solid demo...I've been playing that tune wrong for more years than i care to admit.

  • Man I love that SG

  • It's hard to believe that Rick played all these technical, spot on licks while jumping, running, and mugging live on stage at Budokan.  I've got a lot more respect for RN after watching this....i.e., there's more to this "simple" song than you realize.

    This is an excellent cover...by the way. The SG's a honkin' for sure : )

  • Twangy please check out my covers, I'd really love to have as much viewers as you do, hehe (:

  • @TheBokmaa ___You have to cover tunes by artists that people are passionate about....No disrespect but nobody who plays classic rock, rockabilly, blues and the like really wants to hear Jonas Bros or Pink, and everyone and their brother covers Poison...Pick some artists that influenced them and you might get some hits...

  • AMAZING!

  • Thanks for all these great videos. I use it as motivation to practice.

    Any chance you can do "The House is Rockin" by Cheap Trick.

    Thanks again. Keep em comin!!!!!

  • SO CLEAR!!!!!!

  • nnnnnnnnnnniiiiiice !!!

  • three people are deaf!

  • Bravo

  • awesome cover, have watched it loads of times

  • Spot on!!

  • Hey dude, that is awesome also I have that guitar but yours is a little different than mine but not by much

  • Dude that is sweet! You make it look easy! Kudos

    I've been trying to learn this and its been a pain...but its one of my favorites. Did it take ya long to learn this?

  • hey mytwangyguitar, good job, perfect execution! thanks for demonstrating this lesson! want to have this tab, do you have any??

  • need that tab any got it?

  • Tremendous. You have out Nielsened Nielsen

  • Was listening to this on the way home from work tonight... began to wonder if there was a 1/2 way decent cover of it on youtube for me to learn the song from.... turns out I was wrong... way more than 1/2 way decent...lol, great cover... thanks.

  • Perfect ejecution of this song. Congratulations.

  • how much time have you put into playing this one song?

  • awesome

  • haha! you even got the "sloppy" licks correct.. and that's meant as a compliment.. great job.

  • Nice bro and nice Gibson I have a Les Paul but Im thinking about getting a strat

  • @MrQuagmire211 Its an epiphone

  • @jessi15er This guitar is a Gibson SG Standard. When Norlin owned the company, they changed the specs and even the materials of some of their popular models. In the early 1970's they used block inlays for the SG Standard starting at the first fret, instead of the more traditional trapezoid inlay beginning at fret three. Notice the neck pickup is flush with the end of the fretboard, instead of being spaced about an inch away from the fretboard. You can see the Norlin style bridge as well.

  • @jessi15er NO it's a 70's gibson. shame on you. :D

  • damn you made it look so effortlessly easy. 

  • @biggy484 seriously man. I just picked up my guitar and realized that I suck after trying to play this haha

  • MTG-I love it! You picked probably one of the most perfect rock songs ever! Great job as usual!

  • it is my understanding this guy was the lead guitar player for the Cars

  • @psi4rick Elliott Easton is a lefty
