Most people overlook the genius of the Young brothers ability to make music that was both simple and complex at the same time and still be relevant 40+ years later. Malcolm was truly the driving force of the greatest rock band ever. Rock In Peace Mal.....and tell Bon we said hi.....\m/

Possibly the best ac/dc tutorial ever. Helluva good job brother?

Josh has that rare combo of being both a passionate teacher and incredible player!

This guy's a great rock guitar teacher, really understands the AC/DC vibe and what makes Malcolm's playing what it is. Awesome little interactive jam session at the end there, I'm gonna make use of this when I get home from work and pick up the guitar. Cool idea, wish more youtubers did that interactive jam session at the end of a virtual lesson lol. Great content!

The precision is the thing. I would normally never play without some reverb. But trying this exercise I have to turn it off completely. Love it!

This is such a clear and concise breakdown. Josh is an awesome teacher!🎸

This has got to be one of the best-presented and best-thought-out guitar lessons on RU-vid. It's definitely the most fun. The jam session is the perfect way to put the material to immediate use.

AC/DC played at my high school in 1974...

Oh man - this video just appeared on my "you should watch this" list that was effen awesome - Malcolm Young, bless him, the undisputed engine room of AC/DC - that was the best AC/DC tutorial I have seen - subscribed

Upon winning some rock mag best rock player Angus said "I‘m not even the best guitar player in the band."

This just might be my favorite AC/DC style lesson now. I think the jam was a nice ‘real world” addition.

Best ACDC tutorial for an intermediate guitar player I've ever seen.... Excellent!

Great lesson, great delivery best i have ever seen, captivating and informative

"Roots and 5ths" would be an excellent band name.

Not sure why people say one of the greats of Rhythm. It's all guitar. We should say one of the guitar greats full stop.

watching your videos really helped me in actually being able to seperate the 2 guitars in the song. Thanks .

What a cool way of involving the viewer..thats propa class dude stay rocking

Thank you 👌

Thank you....this changes everything..great lesson

fantastic teaching ❗️❗️❗️thank you !

I’m extremely guitarded - I love that Lester you’re playing!! 👍🎸

Nice job on this. Your clean technique, timing and nice tone make it easy to really hear that AC/DC thing!

Really good tutorial. A lot of people seem to miss Malcolm's contribution to the sound and are focused in Angus. The key to their sound is the combination of both brother's respective sounds.

That’s it! You got it!

Awesome tutorial! Congratz on your great and easy to follow style! Would love to know what gear are you using and the exact Model of that beautiful Les Paul Classic!

Excellent lesson, thanks!

Thats a nice way of teaching! I like that you do do the 'my turn' - 'your turn'. Great.

AC/DC always sounds easy but when I get to it I always realize that man, that groove is hard to capture. Then you come a long and do it effortlessly god damn it. All kidding aside, it’s the first time I watched a video of yours and it was amazing. You have ease and it helps. Great video indeed. Really helpful for me going into AC/DC songs. Thanks.

This is great brother. Thank you

This video is amazing thank you

Deceptively nuanced. Well constructed lesson, thanks!

R.I.P. Malcolm.

Love it !!!

Absolutely awesome ❤❤

Class from beginning to end. Well done. The hat suits you.

Super enseignement, direct dans mes favoris AC/DC, je vais y passer du temps. Merci

Absolutely fabulous, thank you 👍👍👍🤘🤘🤘☮☮☮

What a great tutorial just got better with the interaction good job.

Great lesson 🤘🏽

Great Video. New Subscriber right here. 👋

Dude!!

Wow. This unlocked the (now so obvious) trick to playing like Malcolm.Right hand so important. Great lesson. Malcolm was such an economic player!

Excellent...hope there's more ACDC \m/

Great lesson, especially for dudes (like me) obsessed with soloing. Thank you!

Mega top 👌😊

Excellent work ty much appreciated. AC/DC nailed top to bottom. 😊

man im 62 and jamed this and learned the hard way but this guys is on he got good rhythm and lead !

Does Angus use both pickups?

super good old school soloing!

Like how you show the guitar as if we are holding it

Which AC/DC song is that? The only part I can kind of recognize is SHOOT TO THRILL, but that's not the whole thing.

Ac/DC Rock

You had me searching for your lesson with this video! Learning “Malcolm’s rhythm techniques” I’m so in! Went to your site, not one thing about this topic at all. Am I missing something?

After watching this I feel like getting rid of my neck pickup for good.

Been playing acdc for years but this is just what i've been missing. Thank you. I'll get right onto it. Edit: I can play it like this now. H**y s**t. Thank you very much. That's a game changer, I can finally play like Malcolm. Not only the right hand, also the left. And you can play this forever and never get tired of it. I think I will apply to the course. Yours first and then I see there is a lot of other content.

Made Rock history playing 3 chords....

I recommend using AC/DC as a learning tool for any new player interested in Rock n Roll.

🤘🎸

Interesting 🎉A

Get yourself some fat stings, like 11s or even higher and sting them up nice n tight. Think: acoustic. Now dont use too much distortion. Natural boost with volume is best. Basically it should be hard to use vibrato. Lol. Best way to practice Malcolm's precision and tightness and groove; play Mal's parts on Jailbreak or High voltage live. He sits on one chord to let Angus do his magic. Sometimes only 2 strings but brings up the tension with his brother so naturally. Theyll do this for like 5 minutes or more depending on Angus's shredding. And remember Mal will usually play low on the neck with open chords while Angus may play a bar/power chord or variant thereof. Together they sound massive! My favorite band of all time. i consider Malcolm young my guitar teacher. AC/DC LIVE video is my Holy Grail of guitar. The famous Donnington show. And Angus has the most beautiful black SG. great vid my dude.🤘

That SG makes their sound.

what's the difference between turning off a pickup and turning it off... absolutely nothing.

Is that an AC/DC song? If so which one? Or is that just a jam for the video?

Like the Ramones, their sound is iconic.

Rick Parfitt i afraid was a better rythmn guitarist song writer and singer from the mighty Status Quo.

Jerry Cantrell

🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟

What's the name of that song? I don't recognize it

When did Bill Steer lose his British accent?

Myślę że tajemnica tkwi w umiejętności wykorzystania brzmienia gitary a nie w technice gitarzysty. W prostocie siła ! AC/DC

I don't understand taking out the other pickups. Can't you just turn them off? Isn't it the same?

Don't understand that D ...

Malcolm was a force of @#$%G Nature. He is proof that simple stuff can kill.

It’s Brian Young

I can’t take this dude seriously looking that

Miss Malcolm, he was the engine.

Jr. Rock! They only wrote one song changed it up & made millions. 🥱🥱💤💤💤 proving that u don't have to make art to make money!!
