Mississippi Queen Guitar Lesson

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v9WO8JCOnEc - My band's cover of Comfortably Numb with extended shred solos at the end!
THANK YOU FOR ALL OF THE VIEWS!!! I hope this lesson really helped all of you!! My lesson on the song Mississippi Queen by Mountain. I messed up part of the riff in the song on one of the bends. You'll probably hear it, and I correct it when I play the riff fast for the last time. Please tell me how I did and what other songs I should teach or cover. Ask any questions you'd like and give me suggestions about my playing.

@ggiul1256 Eh this video is from 3 years ago, I've definitely developed more and better techniques to controlling the feedback

Great Job, learned it in no time. I have a question and a recommendation. First the recommendation: Because you have a les paul, for video lessons, just make rhythm or treble (which ever one the song isn't) a kill switch. Just turn the volume all the way down. Then you can just switch between the two and not have any buzz in the videos. And my question is: If you figure songs out by ear, how long did it take you to start doing that, and what is the best way to start. Thanks mate!

[goodygoody23]

@TheMrFlamingskull I've actually started using that killswitch technique, I was just very inexperienced back then and rather naive haha. As for learning by ear, I would just play what I thought sounded like the song and slow figure it out note for note. Some songs would be impossible for this (i.e. Under a Glass Moon solo by John Petrucci) but I would just say the more you do it, the better at it you become and the more riffs you figure out. Practice makes perfect!

lol wtf is the 3rd dot after the double dots? its called the 17th fret

[goodygoody23]

@tabeezyy This is a video for inexperienced guitar players, so it's easier for someone who does not know the fretboard well to find the 3rd dot after the double dots than counting out 17 frets. I know you're probably a guitar wizard though so this doesn't apply to your almighty powers.
