I’ve struggled with the intro to 5150 ever since I heard it. Like I say in the video, the double stops trips me up so much.
Do you guys struggle with one? Any advice for me doing those double stops?
Hot for teacher:
Getting the swing feel on the rhythm parts is beyond me. Some songs of his are so fast you can’t hear that the 16th notes aren’t even until you slow it down. This is definitely one of many ingredients in his special sauce imo.

I love this view of it. Just the intro I guess…
He adds an extra note in there from A to D
Look at those hands!
Aside from the intro to “Mean Street” which I’ve just given up on and “Spanish Fly” which is pure insanity.
This, no contest that riff is insane.
This one is hard to get the feel right.

lol It’s EVH… none of it is really “easy” - He’s always got some cool thing in there that’s a twist for the brain and the fingers…
Have you considered just going 1 beat/bar at a time in Guitar Pro? The progressive speed trainer is really effective, start at 30% of the tempo and work your way up, play 3x then increase by 1% or whatever you like…

I’ve used amps at college etc but never at home, I can’t use them here. All I’ve done is plug my guitar in direct to the pc at home.
