Tuning: B F# B E G# C#

Across the video there are a couple video transitions (cross dissolve), put there only to cover some camera troubles while recording.
Being a 1st shoot and since the whole song was played by ear, there should be a couple notes missing, but the song structure is 100% accurate, for example, Mark's 1st solo played here reflects the real left hand positioning,pretty sure about that after watchin several live videos, but probably I miss a couple notes. Anyway the whole solo is based on a Gmin pentatonic shape that is done both on 3rd fret and on 15th (here, in particular, theres a Gmin blues pentatonic shape), plus an ending Gmaj Dorian descendin scale that should be played like this

-8p6p5-------------------------------------
----------8p6p5----------------------------
-------------------7p5p3-------------------
-----------------------------7p5p3---------
--------------------------------------and so on

but is trasferred like this

-------------------------------------------------------
-13p11p10----------------------------------------
-----------------12p10p9--------------------------
-------------------------------12p10p8------------
----------------------------------------------12p10p8
--------------------------------------------------------


Just with these 2 scales you guys will be able to figure out the whole solo.

  • How are you switching from clean to distortion?

  • I keep my amp with clean sound, and when it comes to dirty, it kicks in with my Digitech Dan Donegan "The Weapon" Distortion pedal

  • Nice man! How long have you been playing? I've been playing for about 5 years. Any suggestions on this one?

  • Ive been playin electric guitar self-taught for 5 years. For this song, I'd suggest you to watch a lot of live videos (and now, also the official one can help you)

  • That was an awesome cover, you've been gone for awhile, so I guess you wanted to come back swinging huh. Great solo, I haven't seen anyone else attempt that yet and you did realy good on it. I hope they readjust that song before the cd comes out, the rest of the solo during the end chorus is hard to hear. Anyways great job! What do you think of Creed reuniting? I'm ok with it as long as they go back to Alter Bridge, which they say they will. Creed is good, but AB is the best.

  • Ty...I was a bit sceptical bout Creed reunion at 1st (mainly coz of AB's future projects), but then after Myles n Mark statements, it was ok to me: if Mark, Brian and Flip can follow 2 bands without losing their every day approach to music and to fans (that regards especially AB) then they have all my support.

    Creed's latest stuff is fresher and new, totally different from the past, so it's gonna be interesting to check this "Full Circle" album.
