This is a classic where left hand positioning and right hand palm muting is crucial. Once you get this right, it's pretty straightforward. Good luck !

  • terima kasih opa

  • @who8allthepies He makes it look easy, also, listen very carefully to the album, you wiil hear the pull off from the 9th fret-5string to the 7th fret.

  • i cant do it my hands are too small

  • love,love,love you gg...

  • check lukesolo99 vid on here playing it. thats the way summers play it. no first finger  movement, i am not knocking this version is the same but fingers are moving.

  • @1Joeyknuckles sorry but summers dont move his first finger at all. he uses all 4 fingers in position. check his vids. you can play it this way, but summers dont as i seen his vids close up.

  • @xFSASxxx I can't vouch for the notes, but this is what it looks like when Summers plays it. That's definitely the technique...it's not easy

  • I think its easier to bar chord it. It just takes more stretching.

  • @stripeysoul This is the correct way mate, apart from myself, this is the only person I have seen playing it pre unplugged version

  • This is the only other way I've seen it played correctly as Andy Summers actually played it on the track and NOT as seen/heard on the unplugged video/album as many other comments would have people believe, I play it this way on my electric and the unplugged way on my acoustic....Nice upload
