First try at an HD upload - so use the 'Watch In HD' option below right of video for best quality.

Actually it's not true HD as I just upscaled it to trick Youtube into giving the better quality option - next one will be true HD!

Flawless. As close as one can get to Brian May without being him.

Rap heads aren't smart enough to figure this stuff out, otherwise they'd have "TALENT!"

3 people can't play guitar

@megamania500 i find it hard to remember all the notes and where they are

[kaleluk31]

@megamania500 well i havent been able to pick up my guitar in all that time because i had college comitments, but im finished now.

i have a brian may red special and im left handed.

i was just trying to follow the steps in the video and it seemed the 3 with a arch thing looks like you kinda touch it slightly but not sure,

im a apsolute beginner and im trying to get my head around the strings you strike vs which strings you hold down,

[megamania500]

@kaleluk31 Since I haven't seen anyone else reply, and even tho your post is 6 months old, I thought I'd reply. You don't necessarily have to just hit the strings that are in the chord. You can hit more strings but you have to mute the other strings in some way. You can use part of your picking hand, or you can use your fretting hand. If you have strings that you don't want to sound next to strings that you do, lay your fretting finger on those. It will come to you thru practice and experiment.
