White Lion - Little Fighter (solo)

[antwonstarr]

DUDE, that was killer @!! Vito is a BEAST, and u were right on it !

[77Fortran]

You nailed it! Fantastic!

[utubemanx]

great playing, you did justice to this great solo. this solo is like a song within a song, very nice.

[mgein]

whats your guitar? you're playing very well :)

[bratta69]

@mgein it´s a made in mexico stratocaster with dimarzios, nothing fancy but i love the way it sounds !! thnx!!

[Torrello13]

I always thought Vito was like the second coming of Randy Rhoads mixing classical and metal with an incredible knowledge of the fretboard. I miss his music and would really like to see him make a comback. RR 4ever

[bratta69]

@Torrello13 Absolutely he had the technical aspect to it and the melodic sense of a classical player, i would love to hear him play new stuff but i´ve heard that he is injured and can´t play anymore !!!

[scofeildkid]

thanks bro when I seen the other tab I was like nope im not relearning that rythym

but man alittle info I seen a pedal which will drop your tuning down to as far as 3 and a half steps and thought what will they come up with next!! thanks man

[scofeildkid]

hey man are you in standard tuning for this or down?

[bratta69]

@scofeildkid it´s actually tuned up, vito tuned up a step for this one (F sharp) although they played it on standard tuning live

[robfolcroft]

@bratta69 is the entire song tuned up?



[bratta69]

@robfolcroft yes , the entire song is tuned up 1 step

[zullone]

oh my god you are a lucky man.....wish i could just play like you....vito bratta made the best melodic solos on history, but people is too stupid to understand it....

[bratta69]

@zullone you´re definetly right man!

[MisterGUITAR1000]

GREAT Job Bro I Know Vito Bratta is a Very Hard Guy to Pull Off and You did it Well ..You ROCK Dude !!!

[bratta69]

@MisterGUITAR1000 thanx a lot dude!

[rickymontero]

Man I wish Vito have joined Whitelion again, Little fighter will never be the same without him. But u are doing very good tho. Have been thinking on gettin those alternative cheap steinberger systems from ebay. No trans trem tho, those are very expensive. Keep rockin dude

[bratta69]

@rickymontero yeah the thing is that i am actually endorsed by yamaha so i can´t play those live, i have a band called agora check it out men! and when i had my steinberger i really had a hard time finding strings cause they are double balled, but i hear that the new ones sound amazing! thanx for your comments!!!!

[AuroraSunset]

you look like jack black man

[scofeildkid]

hey man thats great have seen most of your videos just signed up on you tube

may have already been asked this what r u playing thru? the tone is perfect

thanks man

[bratta69]

@scofeildkid thanx a lot man i am playing thorough my practice rig which consists only in a 15 crate amp and a cheap fender strat with dimarzios!!! no reverb, no effects, just the gain !!!

[ASBML]

realmente eres bueno!! excelent!!

[condorpado]

Ahuevo sergio! tocas muy cabron!! Felicidades por todo lo que esta pasando con Agora! Curioso como me tope con este video jaja un abrazo y saludos!!

Pd. muy buen gorro!!!

[k0sta5]

Killer vid bro! You totally nailed it and what a pleasure it is to see Vito's solos and music reach such a wide audience.

That solo is so melodic and well put together, damn....it's like a modern classical piece of music.

Great work!

[bratta69]

@k0sta5 thanx a lot dude!

[dadadruma]

awsome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!! have you seen any of the current actual white lion live gigs and the guy who took over for the great vito bratta i dont even know his name

he really needs to sit and listen to the solo about fifty times to learn the solo

or watch you

great job!!

[bratta69]

@dadadruma thanx man i´ve seen him live and he is a total blues schooled player he is just different than vito, but man, people are giving him a real hard time that that gus g guy(who i think is awesome btw)!!! vito was of the best melodic players ever!!!

[dadadruma]

@bratta69 thanks for pointing that out i guess it would be the same thing if clapton would attempt to do a metallica shred

keep up your playing



[bratta69]

@dadadruma yeah ! but i totally get your point i mean people wanna see vito or someone really close to his playing , if i am paying i want it note for note!!! cheers!

[MultiRaiha]

cool dude

[rokinrandy]

Dude Vito was awesome,Big game had the best solos..I am fortunate to have an 80's steinberger but I have the r-trem..Nice video

[bratta69]

@rokinrandy Awesome!

[simste01]

Quite a good solo dude

[rwazny]

Great Job, Vito is one of my many 80's guitar heros as well.

Then again... the 80's was all about guitar heroes!

Ron

[nylonsteel]

pretty much spot on ,great job

[anewdayproductions]

0:19 at the end of that run you did a harmony with the recording. was that planned? it sounded awesome.

[bratta69]

@anewdayproductions yes, i did it on purpose because my strat only has 21 frets and that part, i had to harmonize it in order to be somehow in pitch, at the time i didn´t have other guitar in the house so i had to adjust!, but thanks a lot, you do have an awesome ear !!!

[anewdayproductions]

@bratta69 what are you doing musically right now?

[Hunkola]

Nice work.......keep it up......dont be a quitter like Vito

[JSM550]

Awesome job. How long have you been playing?

[HottiMcHott]

great job buddy

[yourmomlied69]

Respect

Man I tried to learn this solo when I was younger--I couldn't even come close. Great job.

[cremington11]

ummm do u have that in EZ chord format?

[JSM550]

That was sweeeet

[ducatidave5]

awsome, but.....why don't you own a Steinberger like the Bratta himself????

[bratta69]

what a cool question! i used to have one but i had a really hard time finding strings with double ball, still it was a really great sounding guitar i kinda regret i sold it years ago!!, i was such a wanna be bratta when i was a teen ( i still am!)

[macocwbyz72]

WHere is Vito now

[wyrm76]

Woohoo!!! That's great man!

[wolverine6511]

I was a big Bratta Fan back in the day,he had a very melodic and yet technical,too bad he's not been in the public ear for long time.

[blackguitar86]

I have always enjoyed this solo. After seen this video, I think I want to learn it. Great job!!

[SPQRTempus]

That is such a hard solo to play, but you did an awesome job of it. Well done.

[meyer412]

Wow. That was perfect.

[justfine77777]

Oh Shit! How did this end up with four and a half stars? Must be some haters out there! Kudos bro!  Major good!

[ChrisLight1]

maybe a few people didn't like his hat. that's all it takes these days. this guy played it perfectly.

[gotryche73]

fuckin rock bro

[letonego]

Great job!

[mrsdethmetl]

sweet! a shame he is under rated

[saleens3514me]

BRAVO BRAVO beautiful job young man

[dgkalldayniggz]

Great solo, Vito Bratta is definately one of my favourite guitarists. White Lion is underrated.

[theprestigelatinband]

ajjajajajajaja fantastico! buenisimo. excelente. I love that solo good job!

[AllanSederap7]

great job man!..hey come and check out my "Little Fighter" Cover with me doing the rythmn part and then the guitar solo as well!!..peace bro!

[ebgdae6]

wrong around 20 - 30

[YoDudeRock]

Whatever dude.

[paulyboy911]

great job. this is also one of my favorites of his solos. the rest of the song is almost harder to perfect than the solo though

[coffinfeeder2007]

killer 80s solo

[mariano070]

ROCK ON DUDE!

JESUS BE WITH YOU

[Paulocity8]

Dude, that's a busy solo! Well in mate, really cool. *thumbs up* I miss VB by the way!

[dmsp84]

The one and only Vito Bratta!!!! great solo

[cockballsass69]

vito bratta is awesome. I never get tired of hearing him play...or anyone else play his stuff

[TJH1974]

Sounded great to me! remember Vito had pro-gear can't tell pick-ups on his guitar or settings on effects or for that matter let's see u do better!!

[viaherox]

great solo dude!!!

[justfine77777]

Awesome bro!

[doylecollett]

It saddens me that a lot of 80's guitarists are very overlooked. The glam rock thing had a different feel from today's music, and did I mention talent? lol keep on rocking great job dude

[1zombiesk8er]

way to fucking go!

god damn.

white lion is waayyyy underrated!

they are like one of my favorite bands.

them and the also wwayyy underrated band kix.

god. ha the music of today sucks.

[scheidtl]

great solo! The white lion solos are all amazing! cheers and greetings from Germany

[shane1v]

Great job dude! Love that solo

[supadupamcj]

Pretty good. You phuck up at 17 seconds and are a little off in your timing.

[lickenitup]

Awesome job. You have a great talent there. Keep on pickin

[Satan0wnz]

Vito was one of a kind man. Not perfect, but a great job

[grayson311]

white lion has some of the best solos ever! wait, dont give up, little fighter, the list goes on

[vic6string]

Nice job on one of the truly classic solos of all time. This song is kind of cheesy, but the guitar part is truly amazing, and that solo is one of the most perfectly composed rock solos ever.

[ettoross]

Straordinario fuckin axe guitar man!!!!

[eatmungbeans]

nice one. spot on. smooth.

keep the hat

[savmont62]

good my friend!!

[biotoxin21]

good solo, lose the hat.

[savmont62]

cool solo my friend!!

[SwampLeech]

Wow dude, you nailed that solo!

[Jeff2870]

Wht are those 2 dudes argueing on this thread? WTF? Shouldn't they be on a UCF vid or something?

[carlosciliberto]

hey man you rock!!!! awesome, and people says CURT KUBAIN is an amazing guitar... BULLSHIT.... you're very good man... congratulations

[puregenius09]

? no.. everyone knows kurt* cobain was a very shitty player. thats what made his music unique.

[Rocco11510]

Who says Curt is amazing at the guitar? Most people, from what I've experienced, know he sucked!

They credit him with his "amazing songwriting abilities" (bullshit!), but never his guitar playing. He was a disgrace to leftys! (and I'm one of them).

[vorscht1999]

Another disgrace to lefties would be that AI putz David Cook aka Crook!

[PedroLMariano2]

HAHAHAHA What a DONKEY! Here it goes your low IQ again: when a black man calls his pall "nigger" that's not racism, but if a white dude says "nigger" to a black man, IT'S RACISM! So I can say whatever I want about white people CUZ I'M WHITE, IDIOT! And I'm not a FUCKING LIAR like you man, I don't need to lie and I've never lied to you! I've just got a CD with my teacher's MMA fights from himself (Alessandro Carvalho) to post'em here! Now I just have to figure how to change DVD files to WMV!

[buffboynick]

A pic of Pedro is my new background on my profile page. Go check it out Pedro, lol ;-)

[PedroLMariano2]

Didn't you read my other messages, decypher?? I said "MY BAD"!!! It's kind of difficult to remember one line from one discussion (among dozens of them) from more than 1 year ago!! Anyway, your logic SUCKS as usual: if they were rising stars, they weren't already on top you MEATHEAD, since they stopped RISING, they stood in class B!!

[PedroLMariano2]

How mature, buffboynick!!! Excuse me, did you just say that "dildos are the best things on planet"??? OK, this discussion ends here!!!

[decypher3]

Sorry man, I'm a BJJ PRACTITIONER. I do, I don't watch. I'm sure among the other audio/visual nerds you are the coolest. But among real men like myself, you're a fucking mud colored geek.

[decypher3]

Holy hell you just get dumber and dumber!

I never said I was a brown belt. I said purple belt. And here we speak ENGLISH so it's Jacare, you fuckwit. So again, you are busted! HAHAHAHAHAHA!!

[decypher3]

"It looks like another Chute Boxe's rising star just KTFO another guy in Pancrase- Rising 6! This time is Fabio Silva! Assuerio Silva (Pride veteran) also KTFO a guy that night!"

That is what you said a year ago under "pedromariano1" before you were banned from youtube.

God damn you are one dumbshit! Don't even remember your own words! Lay off the pipes, moron!

[PedroLMariano2]

By the way, buffboynick, why don't you just keep on "marking me ass a spam"??? hahahahahahahah

[buffboynick]

This solo rocks man, keep it up. Pedro blows rhinos at the zoo, hahahahaahah.

[buffboynick]

Your getting marked as spam again you illegal immigrant, lol

[buffboynick]

I marked all ur alls comments that have nothing to do with this video as spam. Suck on that you fudgepackers, lol. Go wrestle around on the floor with each other now, haha.

[PedroLMariano2]

I didn't really get it, but I wanted to tell you that I've been banned 3 times already due to UFC's FUCKING MERCENARIES CAPITALISTS PIGS!!!! I really think Dana White should just get all the money he wants and SHOVE IT UP HIS LARGE ASS!!!!!!!!!!! Never had any problems with Pride, nor complaints!!!

[decypher3]

You get banned because you are a piece of shit dumbass monkey pROID fan. The world is better off without you. HAHAHA!!! You're a moron that youtube flushes down the toilet!

[PedroLMariano2]

Nana!!! Actually I'm the BEST MMA POSTER IN YOUTUBE!!! Check out my account and see the prizes YouTube gave me by yourself!! Here they are:

#79 - Most Subscribed (All Time) - Diretores

#64 - Most Viewed (This Week) - Diretores

#80 - Most Viewed (This Month) - Diretores

#90 - Most Viewed (All Time) - Diretores

Now they are only 4, but I had 5 the other day!! Do not mix it all up: YOU ARE THE ONE WHO WOULD DO THE WORLD A FAVOR IF YOU SUICIDED!!!

[decypher3]

Sorry man, I'm too busy living my life, training BJJ and MMA while you nerd it up on dah internetz. Moron.

[PedroLMariano2]

Who the FUCK are Assuerio Silva or Fabio Silva???? Anyway, check this out:

1) Anderson SILVA (best pound for pound fighter in the WORLD)

2) Thiago SILVA (UNDEFEATED, 10 KOs, 2 submissions and only 1 decision)

3) Wanderlei SILVA (SURELY one of the BEST fighters EVER)

4) Antonio SILVA (UNDEFEATED - since the fight against Eric Pele was totally BULLSHIT, see for yourself - with only 1 decision also, his last fight where he OUTCLASSED former UFC champ Ricco "Whale" Rodriguez)! YOU LOSE!!!!!!

[decypher3]

Who the fuck are Assuerio and Fabio? I'll tell you who they are, they are fighters that YOU LAUDED AS GREAT CHUTEBOX FIGHTERS! Read your own fucking comments you stupid dumbass monkey.

1) Thiago Silva - hasn't fought anyone good yet. I mean, come on, Houston Alexander? James Irvin? Let's see how he does when he fights real fighters.

2) Wanderlchump-Got the shit kicked out of him by Chuck. That was beautiful. Lost 3 fights in a row and then had to fight a can like Jardine in order to get a win.

[PedroLMariano2]

Just point me when have I mentioned Assuério or Fábio Silva and I'll do you a blowjob!!!

[decypher3]

Scroll up fuckwit! You mentioned them last year when you were PedroMarioano1. Skip the blowjob, though. Unlike you I ain't gay!

[decypher3]

3) Antonio Silva - Got the SHIT beat out of him by Eric Pele. And christ man, he couldn't even put a stop to has been alcoholic RIcco Rodriguez? Wow that's pathetic! HAHAHAHA!! These guys are your prize fighters?? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

If it wasn't for Anderson your whole country would be fucked!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!

[PedroLMariano2]

You do know that Ricco had to cheat to stay alive in that fight, don't you?? And that the fight against Eric Pele was one of the biggest mistakes I saw a ref do in MMA, don't you?? Man, why you even keep trying to discuss with me?? You haven't seen any of those fights, it's simply RIDICULOUS!!!!

[decypher3]

Sounds like more excuses from the Loser monkey!! HAHAHAHA!! Oh I'm Pedro and I can't deal with the fact that my hero lost! OH Boo HOO!

God damn you are one pathetic twisted dickless wonder.

[PedroLMariano2]

I'm decypher I can't deal with the fact that brazilians fighters are the BEST and that my life SUCKS ASS since I have to lie all the time to try to be something!!! Plus I can't deal with the fact that I'm a PALE FAT WHALE who, instead of sparring in a dojo, prefers to spend time eating cheeseburgers in front of my PC!!! Go get a life fatty!! Why don't you try going to college??? You might find a girlfriend there!!!

[decypher3]

I'm Pedro I can't deal with the fact that Brazilians fighters are getting their fucking asses kicked in the UFC and everywhere else. I'm a SCRAWNY GEEK who is afraid to face an American because I will get handled like Shogun got handled against Forrest. Get a life, shitbag!

[DCH1138]

god damn!!! Vito lives

[maizenblue989]

OMG that was pretty good dude!!

[stonfrog]

better than the new guy ;)

[sirvonkot]

could't agree more...

[gamma105]

fucking amazing!

[sonick808]

when i saw the title of the video I thought no fucking way....... i stand corrected.... great job!

[bulldog34175]

I agree, this smokes!!!!!!!!!!!!

[frambrianna]

I am glad to see there are younger guys that still appreciate this stuff!

[slowhand19]

this guys playing is ridiculous. top notch all the way

[PedroLMariano2]

You are right: Anderson Silva is not a Pride fighter, HE IS A PRIDE REJECT! Still everybody now loves him (Including me!)! I simply LOVE the Spider: what a guy!! And bout Rampage: "lucky punch" HAHAHAHAHAH I forgot that you were that kind of WUSS that would start giving bizarre excuses! You need to changer your definition of LUCK, like when it happens MANY times it's not LUCK! Rampage has already punched Liddell more than 300 times (remember the 1st time)! The same thing with Minotauro!

[DHNF]

That is phenomenal man....

[symonsays02]

Exactly! its awesome.. because its vito himself playing on this vid..

[beggaz777]

totally awesome.

[CrookedFingers411]

Crazy awesome

[str1ngBEEN]

Intense, and totally convincing... [an instant later Vito steps out of the shadows, slaps you on the back and just smiles]. Keep studying the style of this master... and

KEEP ROCKIN!

[WhiteLionForeverr]

awesome

[wolverine6511]

awesome dude Vito was one of the great who influenced many,along EVH,Lynch,dimartini made guitar palying awesome.Good Job bro

[tyler529597]

tht was frikin awesome everything sounded exactly like vito bratta did it! nice sound

[aminel45]

*jaw dropped

wow.. awesome vids.. wish i can do that with my nintendo DS

lolz

[tonymizzullo]

Dude. You're ridiculous! Your solos are perfection and Extreme and White Lion are my two favorite 80's hair bands. Keep posting!

[sportakuss]

wow awsome job u kick ass, fast and smooth too

[Asgar170382]

Way to Go Brow...!!

exxelent...

Great Job Duude...

[shredderdude]

Great Job!! Vito Rocks.

[jpunch]

yo diggity good job ive been playing his stuff since wait was on mtv

[w0209094]

YEAH!!!

[stevedahl]

AWESOME. I love Vito. One day I want to retire and just learn vito, eddie, and derek frigo solos for the rest of my days.

[aarroneous]

Those are some really good choices man. I'd probably add Warren DiMartini and Steve Stevens to that list.

[stevedahl]

Great choices. I forgot Steve Stevens. I got to see him with Idol live two years ago-amazing. I loved Vince Neil exposed too. I always thought Frigo got most of his style from Stevens. I'll also add Neil Schon to the list.

[esrb]

de la reputamadre!!!! Awesome mein froind.

[amandae9603]

dude you are agreat player

what a killer job on that solo

[cuevucci]

te encontre checo! buenísima interpretación! saludos :D

[rodase5]

great stuff dude, rock on !

[Hunkola]

Awesome job on a classic Vito solo....but you do realize he stole all his licks from Eddie Van Halen? Once he realized he was a complete fraud, he gave up on music and moved into his mother's basement...end of story.

[mindcrime29]

You my friend are a complete maroon. Most of Vito's licks were actually better than Eddies. More melodic for sure. Everyone in the 80's had some influence by VH.

[FretWanker]

douchebag, quit going to every vito video and posting your useless comments. Vito was influenced in technique by Eddie, but his melodic composition and phrasing is entirely different. This is why you know nothing about music.

[Jerkabobber]

Awesome! That's all I have to say! VERY nice job.

[MosinNagant762x54]

Very good playing

[ebmusicman38]

Not only do I wish I could play like Vito Bratta (very good job by the way)...but can you imagine being the one to come up with licks that original, the man's a genious no 2 ways about it!

[zullone]

ahaahahahahaha ohh gosh that was inspiring man....

[JABACAB]

You're on the guest list!

[2daybay]

omg good job man

if i was not mistakin

i would say that was the original guitar

but wow

your great keep up the good work

[starmanjames]

superb! nice played

[GaryVonGary]

This makes me appreciate how much time and effort went into writing this solo. Must have taken weeks, if not months to get just this half-minute of playing down pat.

[TheSoultrain515]

Hey what pickups do u have there? sounds great for a strat!

[bratta69]

they are all dimarzios, the neck pickup is a fast track 1, the middle pickup is a pro track and the bridge is a cruiser!!! thanx a lot

[altemu]

good job my friend.

listen the one i posted and tell me what you think.

best regards!

[HammettAlbo]

cool

[tennisaa]

how do you play that lick at 9 seconds?

[EddieBear631]

Nicely done! :)

[DEJAVIEW2007]

I'm standing and bowing before you!!! Vito has always been my fave 80's guitarist and I've NEVER seen someone cop him like that. Your amazing!!! I always loved the solo to "Don't say it's over". I'll be looking forward to more!

[sylsylsyl]

He does it again!!! Cool stuff man

[fattystools]

Pretty slick bro. 8>)

[CleverCynic22]

Super nice man! I do "wait" note for note and going to nail down "Goin' home tonight" someday... hopeully lol. Anyway good job, that happy arpeggio part that starts the second half always gets me finger tied.

[danh5150]

Five stars! Great work! I don't think Vito Bratta got the acclaim he deserved (outside of guitar circles). Tone, note choice, the broken triads; not to mention great vibrato...he had it all. Definitely a MONSTER of a player. Congrats on nailing one his more challenging solos!

Keep posting ;)

[kotzensue]

Pretty cool bro!

[2of6]

good job man, 5 stars to my ears. Nice hat :-D

[gyro3]

Many die-hard, long-time White Lion fans say that Vito's most impressive solos were Wait and Little Fighter. What do you guys think?

[bratta69]

i believe so! i also love the solo in "you´re all i need " its really melodic and the note choice is top notch!
