Def Leppard - Too Late For Love Guitar Lesson

In this Too Late For Love guitar lesson video, I will show you how to play this great song from Def Leppard.

The tuning is standard tuning, E A D G B E.

This is one of the easier Def Leppard songs to play on the guitar. They don't have a ton of guitar layers on this track like a lot of their songs do. This stripped down approach, makes it a blast to play on the guitar.

I will take you through each section of the song in the order that each appears on the original recording. For the verse sections, I will also take you through the different fills that occur in the song.

We will then tackle Steve Clark's great solo. As with most of his solos, it is very melodic and fits the song perfectly. There is also a solo during the outro chorus. But, instead of demonstrating how to play that solo note-for-note, I will just show you the scale patterns that are being used so that you can improvise your own thing.

Have fun with this one! Carl...

Love the Def Leppard lessons. Steve Clark is criminally underrated RIP

[Cronposh]

Dude, all the songs I want to learn, it's like I type it in the search bar already thinking "No one will have done this", and you literally have videos on all of them. Mad props.

[Ian-lggp]

Can never go wrong with Def Leppard. Did they ever actually write a bad song in the 80's? I don't think they did!

[BROTX]

One of DL’s most underappreciated songs!! Absolute jammer!!

[gonr.]

More Leppard please !! thanks for the videos !!

[CC-qbsm]

Nice choice Carl. I would also really like to see a lesson on “Let it Go” by Def Leppard. Also, I’ve been thinking how good a lesson on “Is this Love” by Whitesnake would be. Such an emotional guitar solo on that one and I like the guitar parts during the verses as well. Everyone please check out the Guitar Academy, and support Carl, lately I’ve been hitting up the lessons in the Guitar Academy on vibrato and string bending again to improve my technique.

Def Leppard rocks man! A great and killer rock band indeed.

[AimingWanderously]

I was with you through the demystifying of Steve Clark and Phil Collen ... until that outro solo... then I was humbled once again by them and you. Great lesson!

[CAP]

Please do "Stage Fright!" from Pyromania album. One the most underrated songs ever.

[nateg]

More of the early Def Leppard please! Thanks Carl! Steve Clark is awesome!

[jamesflanagan]

I would love to see a lesson for ‘’Armageddon It’’ that’s my favorite Leppard song

[Arcturian]

Another awesome song, and a great lesson. At 58 years old, i have learned so much from you. Thank You.

[mr.nostalgia]

Thanks Guitar lessons 365 I really appreciate this Because This is my fav song and I wanted to learn this so thank u

[nickbanet]

Don't Look Back by Boston is an awesome song. Can you teach that song in the future?

[pchow]

Thanks for adding this lesson. Love playing this song. Broken down very well

[msmoniz]

Excellent lesson! Thank you for this! Been a Lep fan for decades but never sat down to try and learn this one. Your lesson broke it down perfectly and shows how simple it truly is when broken down into parts. That was Steve Clark's talent in riff writing in that they were usually pretty simple riffs, but seemed to sound more complicated because he wasn't always using typical power chords, but inversions to give them more flavour. And his solos were great pentatonic based solos with such feel. Live he would deviate from the recorded version, grooving on the energy of the show, but you'd still hear the soul of the original. Vivian does the same thing too, paying homage to Steve's solos while still injecting his own style in.

can you please do a lesson on rude mood. i wanna learn it but i’m pretty sure you’re the only person on the entire planet that can actually teach it right thanks and love the channel

[allboutthemojo]

Carl Brown 👍👌 what a great choice! High n dry and pyromania were two of the best Def Leppard albums showcasing the brilliance of Steve Clark

[onemakerstudios]

Could you please do Pink Floyd's "Have a Cigar"? It's also gonna complete the "Wish You Were Here" album.
