    In this free Silent Lucidity guitar lesson series you will learn Queensryche's extremely popular power ballad in it's entirety.
    Written by the band's then lead guitarist Chris Degarmo, Silent Lucidity has plenty of cool guitar challenges to sync your teeth into.
    To start, we will cover the acoustic fingerstyle intro. Besides the fingerstyle technique required to play it, you will also have to deal with a few large shifts as well.
    From there we switch to the electric guitar parts focusing on the gorgeous arpeggiated picking sequences.
    Then to wrap up this free Silent Lucidity guitar lesson video series we will take a look at the epic guitar solo. This solo incorporates some large one and a half step pre-bends that can be quite tricky to nail correctly. Practicing this solo over and over is a great exercise in keeping your bends in tune.
    When you get this song together and play it through in it's entirety you really get a close up look at how beautiful the guitar parts in Silent Lucidity are. When it comes to power ballads, I think Silent Lucidity is definitely one of the most well put together ballads in history.
    So have fun with this Silent Lucidity guitar lesson series! Carl..

    Really enjoyed your tutorial here. I've been playing this wrong since I first learned it maybe 10 years ago. I wasn't too far off but the way I was playing it I didn't have both of those G notes together like that. Made a HUGE difference and now I can finally make the intro sound like the original. This is one of my favorite songs and as long as it's been since it was recorded it just never gets old.

    I also find its easier instead of playing the C shape (out of the Queensryche Empire book I have) at 9:40 is to just use A string 2nd fret and G string 5th fret. Its sets it up better for the upcoming D string 5th fret, B string 3rd fret. Its just a much easier shape, but both are the same but your picking pattern is not having switch hitting the open E and only having to lift the 5th fret on the G string back to the G string on the 3rd fret. Give it a try, it works well.

      My favorite thing about the internet is that, no matter what you say, there's always one guy that has to publicly disagree with something that is indisputably subjective. Lol. It's kind of embarrassing how dumb we have become and it's one of the worst things that the internet has done to us. It's really bad when you can't even avoid it on a damn guitar tutorial lol. At least the guy did agree that we all have different opinions, which proves that people just disagree just to put their opinions out there. That style is unbelievably rampant and that's a result of the most devastating addiction in the history of mankind, which is social media.

    Can someone explain why in the very beginning he says the first string hit is a D note and then he says thats a G note. I looked up what strings are what noptes and it says it is D so why is it all of a sudden a G. Guitar is confusing.

  • @izukumidoriya3527

    Reason why I wanna learn this song is because my father always tried to teach me how to play guitar but I’ve never listen because I’ve been on the internet and almost lost my dad. Before he tried teaching me this song and I didn’t want to so I left to go back on the internet. But the fear of losing him hurts and I’d try to learn this without my dad and surprise him with it because he'd always wanted to teach me this song but I never wanted to play guitar but I’m thinking of trying to learn this song:)

    Clearly, when Chris DeGarmo wrote this it seems he was thinking more in terms of picking notes, not patterns. Hence the "picking pattern" keeps "changing".

      Most don't need them really long, like just a little longer then your fingertip, just enough to catch the string. And getting used to where all your nails are is the next step.
