REO Speedwagon - Take It On the Run - Guitar Cover

Playing the REO Classic "Take it on the Run" from the 1980 album "High Infidelity". Using my Gibson Les Paul Smartwood through a Marshall JCM2000 TSL60. Gary Richrath is one of my all time favorite guitar players I sure wish I could string bend like him!

um Am instead of A, but that doesn't sound much different distorted, other than that, it's the best cover of the solo I've seen so far, great job on that and great job overall.

@johanlaurasia Thank you!

What are the three chords after "keep this in mind".....The yoohoo shirt rocks.

Good job.

[sageguitar70]

@rhikdavis Should be G, F# then E. Thanks for checking it out!! Best thing about YooHoo is that it lasts forever!!

@sageguitar70 Thanks for replying. Whats the tabs for the transitions between verses? Like at 0:23 - 0:25 before "and I know the neighborhood?

[sageguitar70]

@XelaXor I know....that last note is a real bitch!

[XelaXor]

@sageguitar70 actually im pretty sure he has a 22 frets guitar lol. Makes those last 2 notes on the solo easier to nail. I know on my les paul I need to bend the hell out of the string to get that last note.

[GAFB1978]

Now that's the way it's done, Paul and Marshall supporting the home team, excellent cover especially on the high-end leads... way to go...

Nice work!! Great song.........

[Cnax0r]

Can you pleas make a tab for the SOLO:D

[xGunSanRoseSx]

i may be wrong but just puttin it out there, turn the pick-ups to just the front one during the solo for better tone, and instead of sliding back to the E. flip the switch back to the rear one and just go straight to the E & continue the song..
