The twin guitar attack of Malcolm and Angus Young have conjured up countless rock anthems and in these video lessons we are going to take a look at one of their finest "Hells Bells".
The intro to "Hells Bells" contains an arpeggiated picking sequence that also serves as the chorus. It is pretty simple to play except for the quick shifts down to the short power chords that end the riff. You may have to isolate that shift in your practice to get it down smoothly.
There is a some really nice hard rock rhythm guitar work going on throughout the whole song. It has the kind of groove that AC/DC is well known for and provides a steady driving pulse throughout the entire song.
In this Hells Bells guitar lesson video I will be teaching you all the riffs and solos in their entirety note-for-note!
Whenever there are two rhythm guitar parts being played together I do cover both of them in the riff video lesson. That generally happens coming out of the intro riff.
As with any AC/DC song, it is very important to keep the rhythm guitar parts very tight. Malcolm Young has long been considered one of the greatest rock rhythm guitarists of all time and for good reason.
The guitar solo for "Hells Bells" is simply killer. The first half contains a bunch of really cool bluesy double stop licks before Angus Young launches into his typical high pyrotechnic blues based soloing. It is a very catchy solo that is singable the whole way through while still containing plenty of flashy guitar stuff.
The outro solo is more of the same starting with a repeated melodic phrase that launches into a more extended soloing section. It is great fun to play and an excellent study for any guitar player.
Because of the soloing involved with playing "Hells Bells", I would put it at an upper intermediate to advanced level. The rhythm guitar parts wouldn't require that level of ability to pull of so those would be great for just about anyone.
So take your time and have fun learning this AC/DC classic. You will be well rewarded with some serious guitar chops if you do. :)
Carl...
Now all i need is to buy a 2000 lb bell for someone to play during the intro
Me too lol. Also it needs to be my alarm bell lol.
That's funny 🤣
Great opportunity for your best friend to join your band. Much better than the tambourine! 😂
@@GeorgeBonez If I had one I would
I use my own two jingle bells but it sounds very thin.
This dude is awesome. I'd like to find a teacher like him. It's so easy to understand, straight to the fact and enjoyable. For some reason it's really enjoyable, even if I know the riffs.
@@kcrock2932 It's different than real life teaching
By far my favorite teacher on CZcams !!
Great lesson as always. For the next AC/DC song, let there back rock would be awesome.
😂😂😂
A late comment, but your version of the pre-chorus is way better than other ways I've seen it played. Not sure how Malcolm played it but thanks for this. Made a huge difference for me!
seriously..you are THE dude!!!
He: it's pretty simple
Me: It'S PrEtTy sImPlE
interesting
never thought id agree with a mlp fan
I Like Pones it is, hope you learned it

It's not important if ya male or female - it's a question of
THE RIGHT SPIRIT to love ( to play ) Heavy Metal.

On my channel WAYNES MUSIC CHANNEL - I posted a few
YOUNG FEMALE TALENTS who shred better than me learned it in 40 Years.
For example JUILANA VIERA, LAURA COX, JESS GREENBERG
and my absolute Fav : DESIREÈ BASSET.

This "headbumping Micky Mouse" played songs from Hendrix and Clapton
in the Age of Sweet 15 - in the SAME FEELING like this Stars 40 years ago.
On stage as Guest from TED NUGENT and BARRY GOUDROW ( Boston )
little Desiree nearly blew this 50 Year old Profs from stage.
And she always SMILES HAPPY by doing that.
-
Buy a Guitar and an Amp = AND DO WHAT YOU FEEL !
Don't play only with ya fingers - PLAY WITH YOUR HEART & YA SOUL !

Shure ya will find the right way !

@@ultravioletsongjatshariff8687 thank you, you’re not old, my mother is the exact same age as Angus, she was born the same year and day ironically in the same country even. And she’s not old. She always tells me “do what you think is best.”I have a guitar, I need an amplifier.But I cannot afford one.
Thanks for this, and all your lessons Carl. You're hitting a bunch of my favorite songs! Really great videos, it shows that you put a lot of time into them
For years i was doing the intro to this on the open strings, this way is SO much easier.
Your tone on every song is awesomeee.
You rule Carl, your play pretty much all songs and bands i like man, thanks for sharing your wisdom.
Great lesson! Having a blast playing this classic!
I'm not even learning to play guitar (I've tried, I don't have the patience or motivation to do it) but I still keep coming back to watch your videos because I genuinely enjoy watching them. Keep up the great work!
dude just keep trying you don't learn guitar in A Hart beat
keep trying man trust me it is easier than you think
coletrain7122000 Just sit down for a couple of hours and practice. When you're done, you will be better than you were before.
If you practice 24 hours a day you can be an slightly higher beginner within a week
how do you do the transition from the intro riff to the pre verse
Great classic tune! Thanks
Hi Carl, I'm a fairly new subscriber to your channel. You are super talented and the best guitar teacher on CZcams in my opinion. Thanks for all your hard work putting this stuff out.
definitely not this guys way to fast for other intermediate guitar players and begginners if you want to see a really good teacher hop over to "marty music" with marty shwartz he is the best teacher ever
Joshua Brown ... I know who Marty is, and I use to subscribe to his channel a few years back.
Joshua Brown nahhh Carl's where it's at
lmao nah dude I've been learning from Carl for a while, especially when I was a beginner. SUPER helpful. Marty doesn't do any fun songs. They are all too easy.
This isnt email.
I’m glad you got your account back bro happy to see it
Cheers bro !! brilliant stuff , much appreciated.
Amazing lesson man 👍👍
Thank you Sir for providing the best lessons 🙌
Great Lesson! You're always the first guy I go to!
Watching your video since I was 13 great!!
Great teaching there buddy...thank you!
Great lesson!
You do the good ones. I appreciate it.
best teacher on youtube! cheers
love your channel! I feel like you really nail everything! I remedy buying a "how to play metallica" video years ago and I remember having to correct some of the mistakes the guy made in the video. not with you! thanks for what you do!
Super!
You are the best that we can find on youtube, and I am sure that your paid lessons must be spectacular. I don't have the time right now and paying $ 20 a month not to use it doesn't make sense. As soon as I have more time I will be sure to register for your classes. It is a pity that in the beginning there is not a slightly cheaper modality for us to start getting excited. Carl Brown is the best.
PS. - We also have to thank you for providing us with some free lessons on youtube. Thanks
Very good tutorial, thank you!!!!!!
thanks bud you're the best!!
Hi, i thank you so much for this perfekt lesson, much stuff, but it makes so much fun !!!
muy bueno gracias por tan fabolosa explicacion
Thanks Carl!
Rip Malcolm young
Boi, you are amazing!!! I need whole lotta rosie though. PLZ
AC/DC rules man
Hey Carl, what pedals/amps do you use here?
Also, it'd be really cool if you did For Those About to Rock.
Other than that, great lesson!
Its commonly known angus didn't use pedals. Just rely on winding up your amp.and a good set of humouring pickups. Its your fingers that give you more of the tone.
@@stephengreen9663 what if you can't cranked up a marshall super lead ?
@@elyasse1323 yeah I get it if your in an environment, that you can't wind it up to11. But modern day amps and computer based stuff let you do this. Not exactly the same I get it.
Could you do one for ACDC's rock or bust.
+Andrew Coble seconded
Kym Watharow Thirded
Fourthded bow to your god
Yes, please
Add me too
Whay type of guitar is that i know all kinds of types but i just don't know what kind that one is
Not only do you nail the song and lesson, but you’ve managed to absolutely NAIL the tone too.
Hey Carl, everything is perfect everything is perfect but just one thing - wouldn't it sound better if right before the chorus you play C5 and slide up to D5? At least that's how I've been playing it for years and it sounds more appropriate? Anyway you sound great man!!!
Wicked!!!!
You should do a famous riffs edition for spirit in the sky by Norman Greenbaum!
can you learn "flat natural born good-timin' man" by Gary Stewart???
What amp settings do you use
That tone is Godlike! What amp or VST were you using?
This one was done on a Line 6 POD HD500X... I am using the Line 6 Helix these days
Carl i have always wanted to learn the intro ( or the whole song ;) ) from Dragonforce-Cry thunder
I been playing this tune for years ! But great lesson Carl. .
Suena perfectamente, OK!🎸
Could you do black ice PLZ???
Wow this song is so easy even a noob like me got it down. Just need to learn the solo and ill actually have a full song learned lol
ALL RIFFS ARE SUPPOSED TO INCLUDE THE SOLO THATS IN THE MEANING (ALL RIFFS)
All riffs means all rhythm guitar parts. Here is the solo Hells Bells Guitar Lesson Pt.2 - AC/DC - Solo czcams.com/video/hWEDWl4LFeI/video.html
Hey ALL CAPS, I think you are wrong. I suppose a solo could be a riff, but not all riffs are solos. Everybody knows what he meant. and in this case, he was right to break it down that down way.
Standard tuning?
hi carl, i have a request, if you could do castles made of sand, that'd be great, everyone many teaches the intro and some of the verse, dvd lessons don't even teach the whole song, it'd be great if you could...
yay
Renditions of this song are always overly gainy. In fact so are most AC/DC covers. But it usually only sounds right with the right gear at a comparatively modest level of amp breakup. You want to hear the chords ring out, not fizz about. Loads of overdrive is not how AC/DC creates their heavy vibe.
Is this standard tuning?
Yes
What tuning is it cause it's not working on stander tuning
Tuning?
How bout the razors edge
What guitar is that?
+Riley music man, john petrucci i think
first thing! Whats the tune in the Amp??? 😂😂😂
Your bridge springs are so loud!
Whoa, 7 views! Dang.
Hank The Tank make that 25,959
How about 80,501
85 k
235k now
He forgot the G and the D to open the verse
didnt work it sounded off but i wasa playing in the key of g so that couod be it
I can't see the fretboard with the foreign language translation.
Just turn them off
Nice haircut
