I always knew this was a difficult solo and I never took the time to fully learn it until now. I spent a lot of time figuring out these random finger twisters Blackmore probably improvised but I have to say my performance is below my expectations so I think I'll revisit this later on. For now I am just getting familiar with the new guitar.

Excellent work - Some nice little individualized nuances in there too.

[TomiV.]

I'm glad that you've finally decided to go with Yngwie's signature...Some year ago two of us had chat about deeper scalloping on this model than on Ritchie's rosewood one.
Also CS pickups better suit your playing style, although best sound that I heard from you was with Highway One.
As far as this solo goes, you did excellent job. The devil is in detail, but I always love to hear different nuances, not hard copies.
Bravo!

Exquisito solo del rock de la historia

[DethMash]

I am writing through an online translator. Very cool videos, incredible game. I like. I'd love to hear your version of Long Live Rock 'n' Roll. And for backing track with vocal, I would have torn my hands off. Greetings from Russia.

Great video, but I cant unerstand measure, where |sextole > 1\8 + 1\16 > 1/16+1/8 > septole|, cant get 4\4, did I missunderstand something?

[santoshp]
