n8sg8 That’s probably why Matthias isn’t recognized as much as other guys. People didn’t keep up with all the guitar player changes and they only think of Rudy.
I totally agree with what you said about Matthias Jabs. He's one of my all time favourite guitarists, and he never gets the credit he trully deserves. And thank you for a great lesson. Keep it up and ROCK ON.
Whenever I want to truly get a solo 'right', I go to your lessons. You always make it look so easy, and your tone is killer. Thanks for putting all this out there, you've created better players everywhere!
Have watched many of your videos but have never properly thanked you. Your song selections, skill, tone, knowledge, and approach to educating the rest of us is truly top notch. Blows away every other 'tuber in the genre. Great stuff. Thank you for sharing with us. Please keep it up!
Couldn't agree more about Mathias jabs. His tone and phrasing are so unique to him it's hard for any guitar player not to appreciate his playing ability. Hard guy to replicate but I would say you've done an amazing job. Great teacher, Great lesson.
Thank you for another excellent lesson. Your M3 bend and you m3 harmony part is a treat, your passion for intonation and vibrato shines through. I always look forward to your lessons, they are really enjoyable, with an emphasis on using your ear, rather than all the mumbo jumbo about frets, fingers , strings. I thank you for playing each phrase at tempo, then playing it at a slower speed, encouraging aural perception, and enjoyable learning. I Love your lessons..consistently well paced, delivered, and engaging.
Your tutorials are the very finest. Very accurate fingering and transscription. I downloaded a lot of sheets for this one and all of them noted it above the 12.th fret. You put that right, as you've got a feel for how players do it and a precise ear as well. Hold on!
I just want to say, how MUCH you are appreciated- I can't send any funds today, but soon, I will. You are one of the greatest guitarists-teachers I've ever see, on the internet, or in person, and I've been playing 40 years - And I'm still not near your level of playing (wish I were!). Thank you, thank you, thank you!
WOW love your approach to lessons and watch you play. You always seem to get the same sounds as original artist Appreciate the efforts you make to do this. Thanks!!!
Incredible. I’m amazed that anyone can cover Jabs so well, and he should get more credit. Very well done and a thorough explanation/tutorial. Outstanding. Thank you!
Thanks for this! I'm just picking up the guitar again after a "little" (32 year!) break, and this lesson is just what I needed! It's a little above my skill level right now, but it's a great challenge and a break from endless drills. You have a gift for teaching, man.
didn't think Id be anywhere close to this style of playing but watching this guy has spun my level to unbelievable heights:-) I love to bend those guitar strings woohoo ....Thanks a many! I learn from here better than anywhere else at one time I thought it was impossible but I kept coming back for a look and got the grasp of some of the moves and now I'm a complete junky to this site
you are the hands down best teacher on youtube to learn songs. the most consistent vibrato. that's what turns me away from most other channels is because you hear trash vibratos when learning the solos and it makes it harder to learn.
+Sabastian Duke Thank you very much Sabastian. Vibrato is such an important element of guitar playing and vastly over-looked by many players. It's something I'm constantly working on. I have a lot of work to do to get it more consistent but I have to say that a guy's vibrato reveals alot about where they're at as a guitarist. The greats ALL have distinctive and consistent vibrato above all else. Gary Moore, Eric Clapton, Brian May, Paul Kossoff, BB King, Hendrix, Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, etc., too many to mention really. Mathias Jebbs has an awesome vibrato. Even if a guy can play a million notes, If his vibrato is not very good, I have a hard time listening to them...cheers
Totally agree about what you said about Matthias Jabs, here in this video. Fantastic guitarist, and very under-rated player. His solo in the song "Coming Home" is absolutely incredible!!!!!! Great video, as usual...
Well said man ... classic classic classic totally classic great classic of the 80’s omg one of the coolest song of my generation thank you so much for teaching it man
I want to thank you very much for this lesson man because I've been getting into playing guitar and I've been making good progress and once I'm able to play the guitar better and understand it better, this is one of the songs I want to learn in the opening is definitely the best part so it's nice to see an accurate lesson on it. I love the tone too.
I could be wrong, but I use a little bit of chorus at a short delay and a long depth. I would set my Boss chorus pedal knobs at the ten and two positions. That with a bit of reverb and compression seemed to do well. With overdrive of course.
The real thing to get exactly the same sound is not just about the right effect pedal, but about 2 guitars playing it but one at some frets lower, like at 0:22
I have to say, probably the best and well explained tutorials on the net. Just awesome dude. I especially liked the More Than A Feeling tutorial. Consider me subscribed and thank you again. BTW, I've used 7's and even 6's, just to get my bends lol, makes life so much easier
Scorpions solos is like playing violin. I am impressed that you start by mentioning that their bending is the trick. I thought i was the only one to have strugled with them for the last 20years. I will check your other vids now, good work my friend
Enough comments on this already with good reason ! I'v seen some of my other Fav instructors here give this lesson & this one is a little different, seems to be the closest to original as I can hear. As always, a GREAT lesson with the Les Paul (from mellow Bryan Adams to Scream'in Scorpions). BadA** guitar man!!! I'm working on it with my Kramer Pacer, I seem to be the only one that loves them anymore lol. Thanks again, & I also give a vote for the Toto song/solo.
Best guitarist I've found on You Tube so far! LOVE! LOVE! LOVE! the fact that you play just as the artists recorded it!! GREAT! sound. Would love to know the equipment you use!
I'd wonder if you'd cover a lesson on the song, don't stop at the top , and show it like you did this song. Love the way you show and describe it all. Bless you. \m/
Great lesson. I'd love to see you do a tutorial, or ever a cover of Toto - Hold the line. The solo in that song is intense! REO Speedwagon - Roll with the changes would be pretty cool too!
+da2ricky David Escobar does hold the line solo perfect....i wanted it also...this dude is great, even better on acoustic. Escobar rips some awesome shit
Damn dude, you're awesome. Also, thank you for this tutorial. I'm a classically trained pianist so I obviously can read traditional music notation and also can read guitar tabulature quite well, but obviously there's enough technique and variance in how notes can be tabbed out on the guitar using different strings that it's sometimes necessary to just watch someone's video lesson.
I want you to know that as a novice guitarist, I get more out of your videos than I could tell you.. my current guitar is what you see pictured on my pic.. a Tommy thayer epiphone..... watching you has made me practice even more and harder..... a donation will be coming soon
I went to the Cotton bowl way back in ,87 it was the monsters of Rock I think . One of them this line up was Kingdom Come. Metallic, Dokken , the Scorps and Van Halen. Even though Sammy lost his voice I'm sure you know all about it they had to come back to Dallas in ,91 and do a free show. But that night the tightness the overall showmanship the Scorps stole that show and walk off the stage Eddie didn't have a chance the Scorps we're that good
Thank you for taking the time... So I've got the solo down, but my vibrato sucks. Terrible. Should vibrato not be a relatively simple thing for most people, unlike me? I can do the fretwork no problem, but why can I not get that sound? Should I be very discouraged that I can pick up the solo well but can't get something that I assume is easy for most people - vibrato?? I should say I'm teaching myself to play (most regularly since 2015) so I don't have practice drills etc that I should be learning/have learned from a teacher. Another reason I'm thankful for people like you taking the time and effort to make these videos; thanks again...Jen
Damn dude that solo was like Memorex perfect. ... kudos. So good I reached rihht up there and hit subscribe. ... just fpund you look forward to scoping out some of your other things. Thanks take care
one of my favorite guitar players he belongs up there with EVH the US Festival the SCORPIONS played before VH and the scorps weren't wasted then in 89 on the monsters of rock tour VH headlined the the SCORPIONS played just before another great show idk how many times I've seen the SCORPIONS but I was never disappointed hope to see them 1 more time before they hang up the guitars MSG is still touring great music from Germany in the 70s not the early 70s i seen the SCORPIONS video from 71? Klaus had hair and a beard the song was awful i didn't recognize Klaus at 1st anyway thanks for the lesson I'll start on it soon I'm already working on another song i don't like doing too many at one time so thank you
fucking love it!!!!!!!! that intro always gives me goosebumps lol so awesome to be able to play it although i will never amount to them but still such a great vibe those high notes i love them
Man, I've watched many of your guitar lessons and it's amazing how you get every note right on all of these songs! It's amazing! I don't know if you take request or not but if you were to do a video on how to play Rough Boy by ZZtop, that'd be awesome.
This is pretty authentic playing AND tonal wise! Great lesson. Hey, how do u set your effects timing? on that Digital delay? And chorus? Then the amps/distortion . Thank you :) Hopefully this wont take too long for a beginner to learn, I'm motivated.
Dude that was an amazing job on guitar! Congrats! So i going to buy a guitar and start taking lessons, which guitar, amp, pickups, strings etc would your recomend me to sound like Mathias Jabs
I have been playing for a long time. Find a guitar that feels good in your hands. The 80's were a time of super strat's. You can get close to that time with a humbucker and an amp that has good overdrive. Other effects that were used lots : delay, chorus, flanger, phaser, reverb. I have found that an amp with effects built in is the best bang for the buck. Peavey makes some good stuff for a fair price. I am not a pro so bang for my buck is important.
+BsongQuest walkswitheagle EE is an excellent guitarist, very knowledgeable and always plays really cool and interesting licks. I have to do a Cars song at some point so I'll keep this one in mind. cheers
