Another GnR song this time around. We've got another classic from the Appetite For Destruction album: Mr. Brownstone.

Anyone familiar with the song will instantly recognize (and possibly hate?) my changes to the song. Like some of my other GnR renditions (Paradise City, Right Next Door to Hell, etc.) the version you're now hearing is more of a mellow "chilling around the campfire" version of the song.

At any rate, in preparation for participation in a Virtual Open Mic 1-Take session at harmony-central.com next week, this tune was recorded in 1-take. As such, you'll probably notice a few more flubs than usual... probably most notable at the end of where the solo break should be. But, overall, I liked the version that I recorded and, as such, it's now made it's way to YouTube.

Hopefully, someone out there will enjoy it as well ;)

  • im so jealous right now can you post a tutorial?

  • @SaltyKlump - Thanks for checking out my video! I'm glad you enjoyed it :-) As for a tutorial, unfortunately, I don't see that happening. As of late, I've had a complete lack of time to do much of anything related to my guitar :(

    However, except for the intro/outro parts, my rendition is played with mostly barre chords. With a bit of studying, I'm sure you'll be able to see what frets I'm hitting.

    Good luck and have fun!

  • What kind of finish is that? A natural satin (NS) or natural gloss (NA)?

  • @2PaperTigers - Thanks for watching! As for your question, it's the Natural Gloss finish.

  • as usual a wonderful cover ... where did you MSU sign disappear to by the way ?

  • @TheSeeker026 - Thanks for the comment AND the attention to background details!

    The sign is still there (and should really be hung up...). It's just hidden by my left arm for most of the video. However, if you look real close at the start of the video (and probably at a few other points) you can see a couple split second frames where some Spartan Green is visible ;-)
