Well I guess if I want to tackle all of the greatest songs ever written I certainly can't skip Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody". :)
In this Bohemian Rhapsody guitar lesson I will teach you how to play all of Brian May's iconic guitar parts to this classic song note-for-note.
In the first video I will show you Brian May's guitar solo and in the second video lesson I will show you all the big arena rock riffs and solos that come after the 4:00 mark of the song.
Brian May composed one of the most melodic and memorable solos in classic rock history for Bohemian Rhapsody. The song is so epic in itself that I am sure he was thinking that nothing but the best would do, and he certainly delivered.
Technically, this Bohemian Rhapsody guitar lesson does present a few challenges to us guitarists.
First off, there are some tricky pre-bends in there that are essential to the correct phrasing of the solo.
In addition to that there are a couple fast runs to deal with. Now if you follow along with the video lesson you will see that the fast runs are simply the same patterns repeated so they shouldn't take to long to grasp.
But those pre-bends will definitely need some special attention in order to do them right.
Brian May is one of the few guitarist to come along that has an instantly recognizable sound and style. His solo for Bohemian Rhapsody is considered by many to be his greatest work.
Therefore, it is essential for virtually every guitarist to take a little time studying this masterpiece. There are many things to learn no matter what style of guitar playing you prefer.
In the second video we will tackle the big rock section which includes some cool riffs, awesome fills and a killer guitar solo. Bohemian Rhapsody truly does contain everything a music lover could want and then some, so hopefully this lesson will do it enough justice so that you can play it quickly as well.
Now Scaramusch!! Actually, I have no idea what that means...
Carl - Hudba
How the hell does somebody write a solo like the one in this song? Such a genius
You're right Brian May is a Genius
Freddy murcury wrote the part and brian followed it on the lead.it was all said by brian himself.
Freddie wrote it on piano and brian may played it on guitar. Freddie was a genius.
That chord is a pentatonic scale

Brings tears to my ears evertim

Wow dude that is a pretty good skill. To cry with your ears. I would love to learn that
GA essay

defo i sounds way harder than it actually is
Justine Custorio practice is good for that stuff
@@roccojc8071 get your sixpence out and CZcams it then tks
Thank you dear! I have a talent show coming up and since many say I look like the female version of Brian May, I'd love to preform this on my guitar!! 😄
How was it?
How did it go, I must know
Hey, how did it go??
How did it go?? Please tell us
Face reveal bro
Carl are a cool guitar player. I've been playing since I was 13 and I am now 63 and you can show me things I could not ( or am too lazy to) work out on my own. I like your lessons and I like your style.... keep it up.
Dear Carl!!! Great work! I’ve been having an incredible time working on this song! Thanks so much for the great work!!! You rock 🤘🤘🤘
YES!!! there ive been waiting for a while for someone to make a good video on this thank you carl
Excellent lesson Carl! I always play the “sequence” on the other fret but with your video helped a lot. Thanks man!
this man is an absolute genius it took me 3hrs to learn this-thx man- love you vids
It is such an amazing solo, created by a genius, my favorite guitar player Brian May. Now many rock and roll lovers have a great interpretation, besides this tutorial created by the owner of this productive channel (Carl Brown). I really appreciate your talent Carl, You´re a fantastic teacher. I spent part of my day learning and practicing in this difficult time. I did not find a better way to stay in peace. Thanks for that.
Excellent. The difference in mainstream guitar players today as opposed to back in the 70's is that there is a lot less unambiguity in modern playing. Brian May can easily be singled out as unique.
Lindsey Buckingham is another with his unique sound and finger-picking style. Rhiannon, Landslide or one of my favorite Fleetwood Mac songs World Turning would be sweet lessons at a future date maybe.
Awesome job as always.
Thank you! Best lessons on CZcams, I appreciate the multiple camera angles.
Thanks so much Carl...I love that riff...honestly I do not have too much time too nail parts now..thanks to you my fingers still "active"
I FINALLY LEARNED THE WHOLE THING!!!! ❤️
Was seriously just thinking of learning this thank you do you teach killer queen as well
Dude the best guitar teacher on CZcams because of you my guitaring has improved 100% if I ever see you around the beers are on me lol
how are people finding this easy????????
frnk iero practice...it's an easy song but try learning each lick one by one. don't try to learn an entire section at once. Repeat each lick over and over till you get them right and then start putting them together
Once you've been playing for a while, you easily pick up things because you would have developed the necessary technique already, as long as you haven't just been playing the same thing for like 9 years :)
If you wanna pick up anything quickly, you gotta practice every area!
frnk iero because if u have a gift like I do with music yee is pretty easy
You just gotta really try, i gave up but then came back and i got it, you have to just listen to what hes sayin
i can play this at 1.5x the speed it's played but when i first started i couldn't even play it at half speed. it only took a week or 2 of obsession and then it clicks.
Thank you so much! So much info to chew on with just one vid 👌
Very good helped a lot
Best guitar tutorial ever, thank you a lot
JAMES SCOTT NICHOLSON, ONTARIO, CANADA 🇨🇦 THE BEST SOLO COVER YOU’VE EVER DONE!!! HANDS DOWN MILLIONS OF GUITAR PLAYERS CAN PLAY THE MOST ICONIC 🎸 GUITAR SOLO THEY EVER DREAMED OF PLAYING...A+++AND I CAN PLAY ALMOST ANYTHING.YOU DEFINITELY SAVED ME HOURS OF FRUSTRATION!!! THANKS AND SORRY ABOUT THE CAPS,

This is really great. Thanks so much. Best tutorial on the web so far on this.
You could take it to another level by mentioning the chords and scales that the solo is cycling through. Then I wouldn’t have to learn anything. Hehe.
Dude you’re such a legend
Hey Carl, Merry Christmas. Could you please do all of the guitar parts to Bohemian Rhapsody please ? thanks, tweed.

You are THE MAN!!!
There is one variation mistake.The first time the opening riff is played on the record, its a little different. Eb, G, Ab, Bb, C, D, Eb (Which you are doing) but then its Eb, G, (Ab,C,) Bb, C, Bb. Great video, this saved me a bunch of time.
creo que la leccion fue muy buena ,,y con entrega que es lo importante de este medio,,,,,gracias por la ayuda y felicitaciones
what settings on your amp do you have, like the drive and volume
Hey Carl, Awesome work! Thanks heaps,,, Cheers from Sydney, Australia 🎵😎🎶

Nice Job Dude. Thanks!
You make it look it easy but AWESOME🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Thanks! Great tutorial.
Thank you so much for the lessons🤗🤗🤗
Great tutorial, thank you!
this is amazing thanks so much!
Thank you so much...just what am looking for🤗🤗☺️😄
Thanks so much. I have learned so may guitar instrumental rock on your vlogs. Will you be doing a lesson on that one as an instrumental rock rendition? Thanks so much.
A fantastic guitar tutorial! But maybe stating which barre chords while sliding could help a bit more. It was hard to tell which chords they were at several point. but keep up the great work!
this is awesome thanks master!
Thank you so much for this! Love your videos in general, too. Can you please give a lesson for Cradle to the Grave by Alter Bridge with the solo?
Thx for the lessons bro it's very useful , i can't believe that this song is easy , thankyou so much god bless you 😄😃
Once you learned your scales well, it's amazing how easy everything becomes. I started studying that this year after almost 30 years of playing on my own and it was like a fucking epiphany.
Thanks for the lesson
Great lesson, very helpful. My only suggestion is adding an on-screen tab might improve the site.
Very nice. Thank you!
You're all right, it's easy, but not for me. 😅 my brain will have a hard time remember everything here. Thanks Carl, great lesson! 👏🏼
Hey Carl, Great lesson! Any chance you would do a video on Queen's I want it all? I just can't nail that intro solo down!
Cheers
Tanks a lot, man! Have my like!
friend you are great !!!! thank you ☺️
How did you make that guitar sound like that? Mine sounds differently than yours...help😢
mess with the bass and treble on your amp and the pickups on your guitar
Loli-chan it’ll be a pedal not sure which
Hi BuffSuki
Prolly using a processor
I use boss turbo distortion full-volume on guitar 9 o’clock level 11 on tone and max distortion
great,well done.
Fantastical!
Nice Job !!!!
I know this was a while ago,,but what amp and wattage are you using? I have the fender squire guitar, and fender 10 G amp, but my amp is not powerful enough for my squier. Please let me know, I'm going new amp shopping soon, I'm also looking for a sustain pedal..
Very good!
i first came to this two years ago i couldnt do it
came back today this was a breeze
same dude but 1 month ago
THIS IS SO HARD! FOR ONCE MY HANDS ARE TOO SMALL AND THEY ARE YUGE
keep practicing! You will get there, just be patient
I got small hand with high action guitar, its really torturing to play power chord hahaha
What is the effect did you use? Can you tell me please? Thanksss. Nice video tho!
✨ Awesome! Thank you :)

It's perfect for intermediate to be challenging but still possible

Joss kang Londo ..... Awesome
It's not a known song but it's awesome; can you do 'When the sky comes falling' by the Jeff Healy band?
Could you do the solo to somebody to love
Finally have it down... Now to speed it up and practice until the talent show in January....
