Kosei Kubota27th October 2007I want Ozzy to sing with your guitar!
can someonew explain what the L stands for?
-w ![]()
Gabriel Leopardi28th October 2007Hey! I'm glad that you like it!
Thank you!
L means "tied note".
gabriel.-
hmm what means tied for my playing o.O?
sorry i am from germany and cant find a good translation in my dictionary...
btw. the angles you chose are brilliant!
one of my fav. lessons i love zakk ![]()
Gabriel Leopardi28th October 2007Hi man! A tie is a curved line connecting the heads of two notes of the same pitch, indicating that they are to be played as a single note with a duration equal to the sum of the individual notes' note values.
It's not important if you are reading tabs because we don't use note values. The "L" is generated when I export the tabs from the guitar pro where you have all the note values (including the tied notes).
gabriel.-
ah now i see what it is. thank you i was just wondering why there is no L in the .gp5 file. It is the ) <--- ( turn this 90 degree) in the note part!!
man thanks this explains everything o.O
cheers ;-)
Jenkinson29th October 2007gabe i love this melodic rock, plz do not stop these lessons, once I build up the faster runs its sounds soooo good.

christian10th November 2007This is great, you should also consider doing a Zakk Wylde ryhtm lesson
Paul Coutts30th November 2007ahhhhhh....where do you get these ideas?! I love it ![]()
great lesson. my first since i signed up this morning ![]()
bladzerok26th January 2008That is such a nice solo! THumbs UP!!
Taragon1st February 2008great lesson, this is exactly what i wanted to play
more wylde lessons!
gab, when u are speedpicking, is it essential to play both downstrokes and upstokes?
Im asking u because i can play downstrokes, im trying to improve my uptrokes but there is no way that i can play that fast even if i practice for months, will it do if i´ll just do downstokes?
Gabriel Leopardi5th February 2008The only way to play fast in one string is alternate picking. There is another technique called economy picking that consist in use sweeps when you cross adjacent string but when you are playing many notes in each one string you have you use upstrokes and downstrokes... this technique doubles your speed.
kk, thanx
Taragon6th February 2008There is just no way for me to play that fast part.. i get alot of ugly string noise ![]()
Gabriel Leopardi6th February 2008
yes, there is only one way. Practice hard, slowly with metronome that part, many hours every. There isn't a secret.. just practice.
Taragon6th February 2008well i guess your right ![]()
Danilo Capezzuto25th February 2008Great Zakkesque.
are you using any effects at all in the example?
nevermind i seem to be getting almost the same sound with some distortion
Gabriel Leopardi14th March 2008Great! I added some reverb on the guitar channel during the mix.
thanks for the comments!
Carlos Carrillo6th May 2008Gby:this lesson is Fantastic!!!
fkalich24th May 2008I agree Carlos. Sometimes the best are not the hardest. Actually, most of the time I think. However this is one with a good sounding Les Paul's name on it.
Sir Schmoopy15th August 2008Great lesson! ![]()
Jesse22nd August 2008.... gabriel Am i right if I say that the first part is HUGELY inspired by slash's knockin on heavens door solo?![]()
Gabriel Leopardi26th August 2008So beautiful, i love your lesson ! Congratulation
Alexiaden9315th May 2009Very beautiful music ! ![]()
Ha ha and this lesson was so easy until that little alt piking part, but I'm working on it lol








In this lesson we'll use some of Zakk Wylde's most used licks and techniques in this type of ballad.This is a good lesson for beginner/intermediate players that like rock. You will also find some Slash influences in this solo.
