Hello again to another tutorial. Sorry if you do not my face in there but I am just concentrating on this part of the guitar so that you can see better and hopefully if you can grab it better. Well, this time we are seeing rocker and let us begin right away with it. Johnny suggested that I should play at least an open string so that you can tune in the same tuning I have and since I have reviewed the song before I do the tutorial I should be tune properly with the original song on the album and this is the string of A.
Okay, so let us concentrate right away on Angus’ part. The two parts Malcolm and Angus differ slightly but we will concentrate on Angus’ part. And also observe my right hand for the strumming because there is a particular thing you want to do and that would be best. You see, I am going up and down here. At least on the A string I hear the kind of movement there. And this is basically it.
Now, let us concentrate on the solo part. And now let us get to the first solo. Now that the first solo begins with the typical thing that many of you have been asking how you did that. Well, I think it is done this way so there are three A notes and those would be probably the open string A because I hear a bass note there. And then, an octave higher, I am doing this on the D string, 7th fret and then on the B string that would be on the 10th fret I believe. So you have to mute G string. You know, you can do with your index finger so you are while pressing here on the 7th fret on the G string you will mute. The G string or it might just be – just these two notes there are some delay on this part could probably post production the record so it sounds like a different room and at sometimes this things can trick your ears. That would be the thing that he launches the solo with. And then, he would do these things which are typical rock and rock. I love it, okay.
Now that that you will have to pay attention because this could be messy and like even mess myself with this. You will play basically three strings and those are the D string, the G sting and the B string and while you will have your index still on the 7th fret on D string you will probably work with you pinky and middle finger changing this notes. Do not make me tell you the notes themselves but just let us hear it and see on the fret board okay and I will call the strings so start with the D string on the 7th fret and then we are going to B string. And then on the G string.
You will have to mute both hands mostly here with my right hand palm, right there. And then, we will go on. This is the B string again and we will start this bend on the 13th fret and the coming down just half fret on one fret actually on the 12th fret on the B string so 13th fret and then 12th fret. Okay, let us do it again. This is very typical of Angus. And that would be the second phrase.
This is another typical thing and sometimes he does it like that and basically using two fingers and two strings here. On the B string I am starting on the 12th fret and I am doing a bend. And then, the pinky finger goes on the E string on the 12th fret and the right hand will play between these two strings like bells ringing. Okay, so we were doing this thing we will close this part with another typical thing. And then you will come down here. Now, how is this done?
Okay, you are on the 8th fret on the B string you are bending up. You are preparing your index finger here pulling off there. You will need some practice there but it a trick it is a rock and roll trick. He does that very, very many times and then the closing phrase will be. Now, if I did not slow this down to my ears it was something like that. Instead slowing it down just cleared it out and instead is slowing down there. It is just going single notes but due to the speed and to what you were hearing previously it tricks your ears and it is just that. At least this is what I seem to hear there and this would be the end of solo one.
