Jamie Humphries shows you how to play guitar in the style of Slash.
The verse kicks in and features a driving power chord riff that is performed on the bottom 3 strings. This riff is based on a similar riff heard in the track Slither. Due to the drop tuning it’s possible to perform the riff with just one finger. The verse concludes with a descending figure on the D string that follows the riff. Now we have our main verse progression, which uses the same power chords found in the previous section, but this time we perform it with a tight palm muting. Pay attention to the video lesson and be sure to remove the palm mutes at specific points to make the riff more aggressive. Now we have our chorus progression, with this being based around a similar progression to Fall to Pieces, and with the main guitar performing one of Slash’s signatures melody lines that outlines the chords. Make sure you back off the tone control to produce a smooth creamy tone for the lead melody. The chord progression is as follows: D5, Csus2, G/B, A5, G5, Bb5, and C5. Now it’s time for our middle eight section which is based on the clean chords G, C, Am and D. This section should be performed in the same style as the verse chords to Knocking on Heaven’s Door and the intro to Fall to Pieces. This section is performed with clean chord arpeggios, a rich clean tone and a subtle chorus effect.
