mrslash Posted December 24, 2005 Share Posted December 24, 2005 Just lots and lots of practice. Also, since it's their own music and they created their own parts, it's easier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin Posted December 24, 2005 Share Posted December 24, 2005 Yeah when you play.. you don't think of a sheet of tablature, and like read it in your mind.. The parts just kinda come to you.. it's hard to explain. You'll just remember it; it's more like you remember the melody, or what the things sound like, and then play that. It's hard to explain. And yes.. lots and LOTS of practice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fridayfan13 Posted December 24, 2005 Share Posted December 24, 2005 its hard to describe, but you will understand eventually. its like playing a solo, everyone told me that to play it right, you have to feel it, and they were not kidding.

firdayfan13 Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 Actualy gnr uses pre-recorded music at all their live shows. So they don't have to remember anything as far as tabs go. Even if they did, their music is so easy i bet even gnr wouldn't fuck up when they play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, you're wrong !<{POST_SNAPBACK}>I agree, because often a few mistakes were made in their songs, and I doubt if they used pre-recorded tracks that they would make them with mistakes in them. As for remembering guitar tabs, I find the more you play the song you are learning you begin to feel the song and just remember where the notes are.

Chrisi Rokks Posted December 26, 2005 Share Posted December 26, 2005 It's like singing. The more you sing something, the more used to it you become. So when you sing it, you don't have to think of the words. You just do it. It's the same with playin guitar. The more you play something, the more you learn it. Therefore when you see Slash play all these solo's etc he's obviously played em to bits to master them (or he would have done when he 1st started playing guitar) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max™ Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 For example, when you learn sweet child intro....youre gonna be like "HOLY FUCK THATS IMPOSSIBLE", but seriously, one day I sat down and all of a sudden, after a few tries, it just clicked and I played it perfectly.Just don't try learning mr.brownstone JUST yet....the intro to that you do some "tricky" hammer ons and pulloffs (i say tricky, not for me ) but for you, until you learn the fretboard, general finger placements and the guitar in general you won't be learning that.I do, however, suggest learning the main sweet child solo once you are started....the bit til the fast run, since it will give you the basic concepts of sliding/hammer ons/pull offs. Its not tricky, was the first solo I learnt - but the only thing that takes its time with that is just brushing it up so it sounds slash like.

ThePartyBoy Posted December 27, 2005 Share Posted December 27, 2005 Learning scales also help you better understand riffs as well.And I remember reading somewhere that Izzy would print out a chart of all the chords he used in Coma since there were so many, so even the pros need some help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
