Queen - 'You Don't Fool Me' - guitar solo lesson/tutorial

Part 1: Multi-screen performance section showing all the parts I played to make this snippet. (Didn't include the drum shot.) I chose to make the backing myself in order to prevent any copyright issues.

Part 2: The main solo breakdown/ analysis and shows the notes and where I choose to play them. As with my other tutorials these are positions that I opt for. If it makes it easier for you to play in other areas then go for that. I do try to offer alternate fret positions on occasion.

Part 3: Brief slowed-down part showing the 3 harmony guitar parts.

I'm trying to get to grips with Sony Vegas Pro 9 and haven't managed to edit too well but these vids should improve in the future??

@francho292006 I used an old RS guitar into Cornish TB 83 booster. This was fed into a Doxy Black amp pedal then into a Doxy enclosure. I recorded it with a straight on SM57 mic. I used Adobe Audition 1.5 to record it on my laptop. No EQ but some slight reverb was added....

no offence to your great job but it sounds to me like your lead guitar is out of tune :s

[basix4]

@mouloudo Well that's ok. I've had a listen and the only parts that could be slightly out are the sections I mentioned earlier? Maybe you could suggest to me what was out of tune so I can work on improving it? After all...like I sais, it's purely a tutorial, not a performance. I do appreciate your opinion though....thanks. :)
