Iron Maiden - The Longest Day (solo acoustic)

[bStruthers93]

This is actually amazing and sounds kinda like an irish folk song in the middle

[WonkyFonk]

@bStruthers93 Its a really nicely constructed solo, like all of his work!

[cabs85]

im kinda excited

[WonkyFonk]

@cabs85 I get that way with all of Adrian's solos!

[vikturr]

Impressive!

[WonkyFonk]

@vikturr Thanks

[WonkyFonk]

It wasnt that bad to be honest. The action is really low and the strings were light gauge, so it wasnt all that different from the electric

[firstroundko108]

The fact that it's on steel string acoustic makes it twice as hard!

[guitarownerlol]

the acoustic guitar still got the rock spirit :))

[WonkyFonk]

@guitarownerlol hehe. Don't think that guitar knows anything but rock music ;)

[wesselrockt1996]

Dude, nice cover!

[WonkyFonk]

@wesselrockt1996 Thanks!

[iKaaoz]

Great cover!

Do you have a tab?

[WonkyFonk]

@iKaaoz Sorry, I dont. I cant even remember how to play it now!

[TheTrooper80]

man you are awesome :D really... if you can play Iron Maiden solos on acoustic, you rock!!!!!

[WindWalker940]

maaan, you didnt play the best part, still i am more than impressed :O

[WonkyFonk]

@WindWalker940 Which is the best part?

[WindWalker940]

@WonkyFonk that riff right after that you played, you know that one that is the main cause of orgasms

[WonkyFonk]

@WindWalker940 hehe, yep il agree with that ;)

[jamesravanal40]

@WonkyFonk the whole song

[MetalGuitar4Ever]

@WindWalker940

that's the full solo

[WindWalker940]

@MetalGuitar4Ever full solo? maiden? no man, this song contains atleast 2 solos

[MetalGuitar4Ever]

@WindWalker940

Ups! Sorry, I forgot about the second solo

NOO!

i shall burn in hell for this :S

[WindWalker940]

@MetalGuitar4Ever no worries man, eddie wont punish the missunderstood, only the ignorant bieber fans and others in the same area

[WonkyFonk]

Sorry, I havent tabbed this one out yet

[warazdinac]

cool men ;)

[samlovemetal]

whaaaaat. Lol sounds good, and kinda "irishy" in beginning. Like someone somewhere is doing a jig.

[verylowiq]

that sound sooooo great :D 5*

i could imagene it would sound like that

[elmntx32]

You should attempt the acoustic bit of Dance of Death. How long have you been playing?

[WonkyFonk]

I was gonna have a look at figuring out Legacy but DOD could be a nice one too. Been playing bout 18 yrs maybe?

[puerko9112666]

lol im 19 yrs old i have been playing since i was 10!!!!... and i have many troubles on learning solo just by "ear".... well tab this fucking solo and send it to me XD please

[WonkyFonk]

I cant remember how I play this, its been a while. All I can remember is that its in E!

[MARccty]

THAT WAS SOOO COOL.

[aytekincem94]

it s not amazing

[WonkyFonk]

constructive criticism please

[WonkyFonk]

Cheers for all the great comments

[danneman857]

You are freaking amazing!

To do that on acoustic...

AMAZING MAN AMAZING!

[Dartvalo]

Cool mann peace to you

[kissIsbest]

the stupid with acoustic guitars is that you cant play on the higher frets like 16 and 19

[WonkyFonk]

true!

[BDaMonkey]

I like the bit before the end in this solo. The part before the fast picking part. Thats amazing and you nailed it on that acoustic.

Lovely stuff.

[0verdark]

Only one word: Great....

where did you get the tab???

[WonkyFonk]

Thanks. I figured it out myself, not sure the middle bit is right though, its tough to figure out what hes doing

[wittmann]

OMG that is the bollox!

[Conericefix]

on acoustic, great preformance

[alfreer]

AWESOME man, really f**kin' good result, great to hear it on an acoustic.

Cheers

[carcarski]

WTF How is that possible on acoustic??? Yea :)

[WonkyFonk]

The hardest bit was figuring the thing out. Technically its not that difficult to play, I just love what Adrian did with it. The final part is definately thinking outside the box! Hes a legend.

[Fustaccio85]

Very close to the original!I like your playing, I'm waiting for more maiden stuff (prefering something from amolad), but with the strato ;)
