One of the funnest song I've learned in my carer as a guitar player was Sweet Child o' Mine by Guns 'n Roses. Not only does it offer an interesting technical workout, but it also sounds very melodic. Toady we will learn how to play that classic song by exploring the key sections of the track.

Here are the main sections of the song we'll talk about:

Main riff
Riff variation
Solo1
Solo2

Working on these sections will give you a good understanding of the important elements of the song and will help you play easily play the whole original version.
