*BEFORE YOU START!*
TUNING: Eb - I forgot to mention it in the video, but this lesson is in Eb tuning! Please retune your guitar before getting started.
I was playing in standard tuning and I was like he didn't say drop D! No wonder it was off. Playing in standard wasn't to bad until play along time. I can't get the 3rd string hammer on clean on the C chord like at the 11 minute mark. Thanks for this!
Slash actually recorded these solos with his flying V. When you hit that 22nd fret you know why. Les Paul not built for that!
How do I get my guitar tone to sound like this? I'm not too familiar with adding effects to my guitar.
That makes sense. Thanks for the tip. The opening G chord sounded wrong in regular tuning, and I thought the F# barre chord sounded better.
Dude I thought I'm going insane
What a flashback learning this song like 30 years ago. I agree that Slash melodic solos are good but don´t forget Izzy Stradlin always very underrated. Nice goldtop by the way.
Agree 💯. Izzy was really the guy that allowed Slash to do his thing out front. I'm sure Slash would agree.
Slash is one of my top five guitarists of all time. Like you said, he has great melodic solo's. This was a great lesson. This showed how well you can play. You are a very good teacher Justin. Your teaching style is very effective.
Thanks a lot, Justin for your light, inspiration and love that you put in every video!
Such a great 🎸 song! Thank you Justin for breaking it down!
One of my favourite songs ever. Learned to play the Bob Dylan version when I was younger. Started strumming again during lockdown after a 30 year break and taught myself to play it again. It’s now time time to put my shiny new Gibson to good use. Thanks for breaking down this epic cover Justin. You have just made my day 🤘

This is one of the first songs I learned on guitar, long before I learned the chords it's built around. Was truly an eye opener years later when I found out all these iconic riffs I had learned came from the same small handful of chords I hadn't taken the time to study. That's all it took for me to go from avoiding music theory like the plague, to being absolutely fascinated by it.
Amazing cover and lesson thanks Justin!
I‘ve been waiting so long for this Video😍😍😍😍😍🎸🎸🎸
You are so incredible, as always ! What a performance !
perfect, as always! thanks Justin!
Brilliant. Can’t wait to get stuck into this one 🤘🏻🎸
Oh damn, once started learning the guitar with your lessons like 140 years ago, i can play that one meanwhile. BUT its well about time that you put this particular lesson up. Probably one of the best versions of this superb evergreen. Love it a TON! And love you too! 😍
Wow! Thank you so much Justin!
Pure nostalgia! This also reminds me I really want a gold top LP. Pretty much has been on my wishlist forever.
Outstanding as always 🤘🏻 and that tone is just 🤤
Great work, Justin. 👍🎸
You've got some talent Justin! Superb.
Thanks for taking the time to break this down. And, great playing in that intro! 😅
Hey Justin. Thank you for this awesome lesson. Please do some more GnR Songs.
Thanks Justin for the lessons!

Excelente Justin!!!!Saludos desde El Salvador C.A.
Thankyooooooouuuuuuu Justin!
This is one of the songs I most want to learn and I just got my first Les Paul yesterday (still can’t believe it!)… Perfect timing ❤
Good luck! (I need it too😅)
Did you learn it yet!?! :)
Awesome! Great choice with the Les Paul. 🤘🏻
I kind of improvised my own version of this and used to think it sounded ok not quite right but ok. I now realise how far out I was!
Thank you Justin brilliant as always!
Amazing!!!
😎 thank you, this has helped me so much 🌟👌🏻
awesome young man thank you
omg. i could hear this all day
Wow that sustain man 🤘🏻
Beautiful
hey justin ive watched heaps of your videos and you've helped my guitar progress a lot over the years and id love it if you could do blowin in the wind by bob dylan
I started my guitar journey with you and now, a few years later, I'm pretty decent. Thank you, you're awesome.
One thing, that would be a nice to have, is how you get the guitar sound. So what effects you're using etc. Or an in depth video about pedals, how to get specific sounds etc.
Great as always Justin
TYVM
Dang! Got that Slash tone really dialed it Justin!
You are a very good teacher sir
Justin you’re the best
Cool!!!!
Been waiting 10 years for you to do that :)
I'm tempted to make a second YT account just so I can like this video twice. Really really good analysis of an amazing piece of guitar playing. And played really well, too!
Great tutorial, easy to understand and follow. Personally, I really struggle with the string skipping technique and always have. No amount of practice seems to improve my technique and not really sure where I'm going wrong with it
my favourite song
thank u !!
I played that live once and I killed it!!
😳🧐 I believe I can..
Good teaching
Thanks!
Thanks for the thanks 😊
Whoop whoop! Thanks for this Justin, just an amazing song with that extra Slash bite to watch later on. Justin, you just lowered my stress levels to next to nothing. Big Big thanks!
…I almost dare not to ask but how about a lesson on Locomotive?

So good man, great insight as always! Should probably mention you're tuned half a step down, or did i miss that?
I completely forgot to mention it - sorry!
@@JustinGuitarSongs ha ha dont apologise man, the content is absolutely top notch, i just foresee people starting to play it and going "hang on a minute" 😂
@@JustinGuitarSongs great choice for a lesson 👏
The strum / pick pattern is so complex, I'll bet Slash never played it the same twice!
*HOLY SHIT* 😳
Hi please make a tutorial on Loved by you by Natasha Bedingfield
It seems to me, you may have spent a little time figuring out the pedals. A lot of this sound/song sound is off of the pedals. I know this is not Justin's Pedal page, but a quick blurb like I am using a chorus, delay, and reverb .. if that is what you used might help the rest of us get the correct tone.
What distirtion pedal you used on the rythm part or distorted parts.
Thank for your answer
I'm a huge GnR fan (went both nights Tottenham this year, both at West hams last time) but hate this song. It's my loo break)
But the first solo is a good one for learners. As sounds more difficult than it is and at an accessible speed I.e. not too silly fast.
How do i set up my amp for the power chords? Idk how to make it as clear? I have a Katana mk2 50W
Just like AC/DC GnR didn't use that much distortion. Apart from that great video!
😊😊
Hi sir may i know what pedal you used on that distorted intro? That stramming before those solos?
Great lesson, however, I find it extremely difficult to play the part involving the 22nd fret… close to impossible on my LP, a bit easier on the Strat. But still no way yet to play it clean with correct bends. Any tipps for me would be welcome.
One thing is missing from these otherwise wonderful free lessons is a metrononome timed playing. But i guess this is for proper students along with the tablature. And a fun fact, i remember a few years back when Justin uploaded Patience by that very band and they obliged him to erase it. So take advantage people as long as it is still up.
Did Justin mention it’s tuned down a half step? Unless I missed it. I was trying to play along with the him and didn’t sound right, I tuned down and now sounds good.
Yes, it is.
Cheers 😊

Man people rip slash for lack of technical ability but, you can't argue about the man's musicality. TechnicL stuff can be learned but There's not many people alive, or dead than could put a solo together like that!
Danke!
Thanks for the thanks 😊
Hi Justin, why is this song not on the app? Can you add it please?
A little more basic question: When you do slide-ins, how far below or above the target note do you usually start?
There is no set rule, whatever feels right and sounds good. One fret, five frets, literally you want to play that by ear.
Cheers 😊
| Richard_close2u | JustinGuitar Official Guide & Approved Teacher
Would I be right in saying it's a chorus pedal you are using ??
What are the effects used for the intro?
Lovely sound why doesnt mine sound like that ?? Could it be a crappy little amp
Hi there. It sounds (and looks) to me as if you hit some strings of that G chord in a seccond downstroke, right before hitting the thinnest string on the 3rd Fret in an upstroke. It's not in the tabs however and you only do it when playing it a bit faster during the demonstrations of the video. It sounds really cool but it's not on the record. In the tabs it would probably represented as a grace note or grace chord (if there is such a thing). I noticed though, that my brain adds this downstroke when I hear the intro in my head though. I Just wanted to point that out. I might try to actually add this to to how I play it. Should I? Does Anybody else notice that?
Having a tougher time with the intro than the solos. When doing the pull-off arpeggios, the pad of my other fretting fingers are unintentionally muting the pull-off/hammer-on strings. Not sure how to correct this.
5,4,2,3,4,14,3,2,3 strum
Hi Justin...thanks a lot for uploading...what guitar do you use ?
Gibson Les Paul Goldtop. Info here: www.justinguitar.com/guitar-lessons/justin-s-guitars-list-and-info-gg-001

ALMOST made me want to learn a G'n'R song for literally the first time ever when you kicked in that OD, man... KEEP IT UP, and you just might make a convert of me yet - lol ;-)
How about some Jethro Tull? 😀

Tabs, tabs, tabs
What tuning and pedals for the intro?
Slash / Guns n Roses play down a halfstep - Eflat tuning.
Cheers 😊 | Richard_close2u | JustinGuitar Official Guide & Approved Teacher www.justinguitar.com
Is the guitar tuned down a bit ???
I cant make my amp sound like your guitar
Guns n Roses tend to tune to E flat, a half tone lower.
Cheers 😊
