Description
We've got a classic rock lead showcase! This one's a high energy, bad attitude, Texas boogie inspired by artists like ZZ Top, George Thorogood, and Blackfoot.
I'm gonna show you some dirty slide licks with that classic roadhouse swagger. We've got lots of ugly, bends, hammer-ons and pull-offs, and smoking double stops using the pentatonic scale.
And of course, all around leads that modulate upwards for excitement!
We'll also briefly cover that hard-driving rhythm guitar underneath. Lots of dust and whiskey in this one!
I'm playing a Gibson Les Paul through a Marshall-style tube amp, and an overdrive pedal for a hotrod lead guitar sound for those slide parts.
Be sure to dial in an extra nasty tone by cranking up the meds on your amp and kicking in a fuzz pedal in front of it. That should get you most of the way towards sounding like a pissed off harmonica!
This one's gonna be a blast, so let's dive in and check it out...
