Green Grass and High Tides (Guitar Solo) (Expert) (FAQ)

A little video I put together teaching you how to get through the tougher parts in Green Grass and High Tides in Rock Band.

Try these tips on a slower setting first, IT HELPS.

Let me know if you have any other songs you'd like some help on and I'll do my best to teach you, (any difficulty/instument)

Also had to get used to using Adobe Premiere Pro, and it's really wierd the first time you use it, so it's not the best video to show you what I was trying to do.

Anyway, I hope it helps. I also hope I'm not making a total fool of myself.

:)

dont you need to strum to use the high fret buttons??

[RockBandFAQ]

Well, you need to strum on notes that aren't hammer-on's or pull-off's.

And since you are also using the bottom frets, that essentially acts like a strum so you can use the top frets without strumming.

how long did you practice

[RockBandFAQ]

When I first came up with this method it took me a few days to be able to do it well.

Of course it'll be different for you, it may take you a week, it may only take you 10 minutes.

Just keep practicing!

You can hold down yellow on the last triplets as long as you hit the orange and blue.

... quaters of the way through) then used it. As long as you have a full bar of overdrive it will last up to thenext point where you get some. Wammy on these and if you're lucky the overdrive will keep going into around half way through the next batch of threes (red, yellow, blue). Then for the final lot of fours (orange to red and blue to green) its childs play :)

Hope this helps all thoes in a similar situation to me.

I had totally forgot about this video lol, I kept trying at the solo and I've finally managed to get through the song :D

I placed my index finger on red and middle finger on yellow. While strumming everything I would lift my middle, slide the whole hand down to green so the index was on green then slide back up to red and place my middle on yellow. Its kinda hard to do when you start but after some practice its doable. I saved my overdrive for as long as possible (around half way to three ...

[redskinsrock2689]

if you use a guitar hero controller just hold down the red fret and press the yellow, while completely ignoring the green notes (this is on the first zig zags). If you do this well, then you will actually move up on the meter. If you can even make it to this part of the song, then you are definitely good enough at the game, and should have no problems doing this at all.

I have an extremely hard time with the timing. :(

Trying to find the right speed sucks.

[IbanStronginthearm]

Tip sounds great, but sadly doesn't help me at all as I use the guitar hero controller.

Any tips for just using the main fret buttons?
