    @peterfec1377 Před 3 lety

    So beautiful but ...everyone got owned!!! Including myself. Very appealing and clean sound, I thought this cover was probably the exact way to play the riff properly so I started studying it playing the vid in ultra slow motion. At the very end of the riff (between 10 and 11 seconds for the first round) there is a "hammer pull-off" (4 to 6 on D-string) that is impossible to come out from the fingers we see moving of our cover master. The guitar we hear here is the one Frusciante himself guys... back to the beginning: so beautiful! (and thanx by the way to our fake cover master cause he put me at work with this enormous riff, that's the most important)

      cek0 relationships with females are directly correlated with confidence and social ability. Being filthy at guitar may help some people with that, but not all will find that to be helpful. Just like how guys with six packs or 8 inch dicks still don’t get women because they doubt themselves or let their insecurities override themselves.

    A very tricky guitar riff to play:G#min, Emaj, Bmaj, F#maj, 4th position. Only just got it up to speed. John Frusciante’s alternate picking; awesome and in strict 4/4 time. Amazing lyrics as well.
