Well, except for the solo. I'm trying to not start any new songs til I'm happy with Back in Black. Also not difficult (and not 'metal' enough) but I'm having a hell of a time getting the muting right to make it crisp and punchy. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

The solo is tough(for me anyway), but the rest of the song is very easy. Plus, it is a cool song. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I think someone said the trooper was hard! NAH! just go back to it, and look at it closely, it has the same chord progression throughout the song pretty much, and teh riffs are pretty easy with just a little practice. But, the solos are tricky, you want some songs with some pretty easy solos as well to get ya started? You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Arch Enemy - Nemesis (The Last One) Arch Enemy - Snow Bound, nice phrasing with a wah pedal Arch Enemy - Dead Eyes See No Future (Last One) Arch Enemy - We Will Rise (First One is fairly easy, second one is a bit trickier) Dream Theater - In The Presence Of Enemies Part 1 Solo (2:10) Judas Priest - Living After Midnight Iced Earth - Watching Over Me, Amazing solo, can be a bit tricky at times, but the concept is simple, might take a bit longer than other to learn, worth it though.
