Run .. New Extreme Song

This is the solo to one of the tracks from the new Extreme album. Its in 2 parts, the first is the the great nuno, and then, I play the second part over the backing track. I de tuned the backing track one half step, as this is one of the very few, if not only, extreme song I can think of thats not in Eb, which my Ibanez is. It's the same speed though. In fact the tuning is actually an open E Tuning. So if you wanna play it you'll need to tune E, B, G#, E, B, E




You'll probably notice somethin slightly different about my left hand! Did this just for realistic Nuno effect, its not somethin I do all the time tho, ok, promise!! ha ha ;)

Make sure you are watching this in high quality. This is done in your account settings page (video playback quality).

Enjoy

Great job, Ian!!!

congrats from Brazil!!!

One question: Is the first phrase in C# minor pentatonic? what's the pattern?

thank you so much

Its in E. Open E tuning, and it uses the open string and 10th and 12th frets on each string.

Thanks for this dude, I just watched it. You're right he's great!! am very impressed! and the black nails too, plus he's got the N4, could this guy love Nuno more than I do?

next time, either don't paint your nails black, or don't wear abercrombie & fitch.

But good solo

[ianlaird]

Yeah those 2 things are a bit of a contradiction I suppose!!

sweeet ..

[tadejsusta]

it all sound great, but there is just one thing i don't understand.

Why didn't you play the part after the first lick (at the start of the solo) and until 35 sec in the song?

[princebillE]

excellent, but my fav part of that song is the outro...

[FlippinNoogle]

I like your nails :)

But your playing is even betterrrr

ROCK ON dude!
