Hello everyone!

Today we'll look at the song "Tell My Baby" by the Red Hot Chili Peppers off of the album Stadium Arcadium.

Tuned up? Let's rock!

This is an intermediate level song that's really a lot of fun to play. Convince your friends to learn how to play bass and you'll have that much more fun! Frusciante uses a clean Fender tone, but the "treatments" of the guitar change throughout the song, which keeps it interesting. Examples of this are adding/subtracting: phasers, reverb, delay, etc...

Here's a tab (not my work) that I used in learning this song. It may help you too.

Don't be afraid to really dig into this song, and be sure to own that solo! It's nice and short, and really you'll find that anything you think of should fit (as long as you're in a workable key like Am or Dm ;) )

Grab those guitars and get to work. Post videos of your playing, I'd love to see 'em!

Thanks for stopping by (and reading all of this). I hope you'll come back, and don't forget to friend me and SUBSCRIBE in order to see all my new lessons as soon as they're available. My name is Shayne, and I'll see you back here soon!
