A lesson for Adrian Smith's solo in Iron Maiden's classic 'The Evil That Men Do', from 1988's Seventh Son of A Seventh Son. The lesson is played on the Jackson Adrian Smith San Dimas SDX.
Man i cant thank you enough! I stumbled upon your Wicker Man tutorial whilst trying to learn that solo and it helped me a lot so thought it was worth a shot haha! Please keep up the tutorials and UP THE IRONS!
No problem man! I have to say, I got your request whilst I settled down to watch a dvd. The dvd I was watching was 'Downfall' about the last days of Hitler. It was only whilst rehearsing this track at the same time as watching the movie that I realised the coincidence: Hitler - The Evil That Men Do. Scary! Cheers for motivating me.
Again awesome . Could you maybe in the future do Paschendale . Its one of my favourites of Adrian outside Somewhere in time and Seventh son. Cheers man keep it up.
Thanks again Derek. Good suggestion. The most recent track I've done is The Wicker Man. Paschendale is a great track so I'll put it on my 'to do' list, haha!
Hi Eamon, youve a great undertstanding of Adrian Smiths style, do u do one on one guitar lessons, im an intermediate player who struggles on a few of his solos and could do with help, im based in Dublin but willing to travel. Cheers. Joey.
Very usefull lesson! Thank you so much!! I'll trying to play this when my Jackson AS SDX come to me from Germany)) What can you say about this instrument? I know, you already have video, where you show this guitar, but maybe now you know it better =)
Thanks for this lesson! I'll try to play it, when my Jackson AS SDX come to me from Germany. What can you say about this instrument? I know, what you tell about it in one of your vids, but maybe you know something new about it, maybe do some modifications?
I have to say I love this guitar. In all honesty, in places it pails in comparison to the Ibanez Prestige. In an ideal world, I would probably replace all the pick-ups. The fact that there is no 'hole' beneath the bridge is also a drawback. However I love this guitar. It feels great, looks amazing, and these quibbles can be dealt with.
Ok. What pickups would you put in neck and middle position?. In bridge position I think Dimarzio Super Distortion is the best choise. Fender SCN (as on the original Jackson) is too rare and expensive in my country =(
I'm not much of a guitar 'tech' head I'm afraid, so I'm not sure what I'd put in it to be honest. Anything would be better than the neck pick-up that's in it, haha.
