europe - "rock the night" solo cover

I got new strings so I was in the mood for doing some pinch harmonics stuff. I know it's a bit noisy at some points. Hopefully I will post a cleaner one, but you know, I'm not John Norum ;p

probably the best one on YT. Great fun song and awsome solo.

@bigmaxy07 Thanx, I appreciate your kind comment so much:)

@luisovich What was the guitar John Norum commonly used in that time? eg 86/87. You hear this distinct clean crisp sound in Europe's album - and for example Kiss Crazy Nights album and Whitesnake at the time. Was it a Kramer or Ibanez maybe? Just askin! cheers.

@bigmaxy07 To tell the truth, I don't have the slightest clue, though according to wikipedia, he seems to be a Gibson enthusiast :)

[luisovich]

@luisovich Though he must have used a floating bridge for that song, so I would say both kramer or Ibanez are good bets

[Burnroses]

can you give me the tabs?

[luisovich]

@Burnroses sorry, I just played it by ear. You just need to be familiar with pentatonic/diatonic shapes. I'm pretty sure it must be tabbed more or less accurately for "guitar pro" soft, anyway. Good luck!!

@luisovich He used a 70s Fender Stratocaster ;) in the final countdown era!
