Good video...I do find it funny when he says "these are called pull-offs." Anyone who is attempting this style of playing better sure as hell know what a pull-off is! :)

matt1284508 just shut up who cares man make your own god damn tutorial jees

Wrong chords called out again.It's a C#dim. to G/D(G with D in bass).It's a chromatic thang.The correct C#dim. notes He plays are C# in bass---Bflat---then E.Low to high.The G chord has to have a D as bass note to keep it chromatic and musical.

[matt1284508]

The correct chords for the bridge are C---C#dim.---G/D(G over D) to E7.It's a chromatic thing (half steps)and you can throw in a D# to E if you're quick enough.Making it totally chromatic.Randy should be embarrassed(this video is forever)as this is the second video he's called out the wrong chords.That's the bummer in the wonderful world of music very few folks,use their ear.They just play tab or something somebody showed them as in Randy's case.
