Join Guitar World for an exclusive interview and lesson with world famous guitarist, Slash. For more of this interview and lesson, check out guitarworld.com
I have been attempting to play guitar for a few years now without any lessons (I am 52) In these years I have been learning I have devoured all the info I can off various web sites including CZcams. The one thing that baffles me is the negative comments towards certain guitar players. i.e. Slash, Santana, Cobain and others. I just don't understand the negativity. To me playing guitar is an almost spiritual thing, with our fellow guitarists being our brethren. How can you in good faith insult one of your own. Please if you do not like someone's playing or style DO NOT LISTEN, simple.
I never realized Slash was such a cool dude,posting this helpfull video.and also a well spoken , intelligent guy..always loved his guitar work but now I hold a new level of respect for him.
Can I just say; That Les Paul he is rocking in this video... I can’t imagine owning much more of a BEAUTIFUL guitar then that. That striped, butterscotch flamed maple top... Wow. I love it. That butterscotch color Les Paul, the aged Tobacco Burst, and the black & gold custom shop are my favorite colors for the Les Paul. Also really like the new, more modern aged Seafoam Green color on the Les Paul as well.
He's still got it. I really wasn't expecting anything I'd remember the next day but that is a really catchy song. The phrasing is really nice too, It's great seeing him play just as well as he ever has.
I love that when he records he just wings it around those basic key points of the melody he's come up with. That's how I learn a lot of his songs too, like November rain, I don't verbatim play the record on the fast bits.

That is one Beautiful Guitar............
I love Slash's guitar playing. I dug him even more when I found out he was a big fan of the late Great Rory Gallagher!!
🎩
just love the tone on that accoustic guitar!

I have loved him all my life. saw him live yesterday in Dubai. couldn't believe my happiness. it was mental.

He's always so present. Top guy.
