  • Hi, I'm Zakk Wylde and you will never be as good as me. Thanks for watching.

  • Do these guitar players even bother doing a practice take before trying to explain what they're trying to show us? Seeing this really makes me appreciate Eric Johnson and players with basic verbal articulation.

    "Uh, what you want to do is... [strikes a note or two] see if you can just try to-- so here's a-- here's a little exercise you can work on. What you wanna do is..."

    "Um, what we're going to try and get into now-- also what I was... what I was showing you before... [brief demonstration]"

  • tabs man!! this is so fast

  • @CalimeroFFM its zakk wylde bro, obviously he isn't going to chicken pick like albert lee or in the traditional twangy tele style. i don't even like zakks style very much but give the dude some credit that was some fast freaking chicken pickin.

  • Steve Schifty(spelling)(wrote Breakfast Club song) aka Dino Rose told me he Discovered Chicken pickin when in the Detroit Wheels.

    Anywz,. I like the way Zakk speaks to you like you know a little bit about music and the guitar. Like "pedaling off the A note" etc.

    So many lesson videos and tabs don't even tell you what freakin key the song is in or the key its in or the changes in keys. and like you read at least one of Mel Bay's books.

  • is it just me, or is that some bad chickenpickin' ? i don't mean "bad" like in badass; i mean "bad" like in "bad" or "not good" ... nothing against mr. wylde, but please: stay out of the country business. that place has other names written aaaaaaaaall over it (eg: albert lee...)

  • @dubbly1 I believe he's from New Jersey. Kind of explains his attitude a little bit 

  • Zakk has a really strange accent. Does anybody know where he's from?

  • @jixxxxer17 He usually tunes a whole step down

  • something like that is right...it's nothing like that !

  • It's called fuckin' hybrid picking!!!

  • he saying Am pent but it sure sounds like G min pent a few times lol wtf charlie ?
