Alexiaden9326th April 2009This song is really cool ! I really enjoy the sound of the open string kind of making a funky bass line. Anyway the high quality of this lesson doesn't surprise me after having seen your other lessons... You rock !

Mr.E14th January 2009great riff, thank you!
wondering what guitar effects are you using?
sounds like some kind of harmonizing effect at around 00:49 - 00:54

Funnily Slash is also one of my main-influences, and he also made me start play guitar at the age of 11:D - mxnut6727th October 2007

Great job Gabriel! sicne I've signed up on this site, I've really enjoyed your teaching! - Gabriel Leopardi16th October 2007

GABRIEL!!!!
I have had my guitar for a year, but havent played much at all because I was so discouraged that I wasnt making progress. I've had some time over the last few days and learned most of this lesson. AND I can almost play along with the backing track without errors. This is BY FAR the best and most exciting moment of my "guitar career", if that's what you want to call it..hehe.
I have renewed interest in continuing to play now!
THank you SO much for putting this together!
Doug - Gabriel Leopardi20th September 2007
Hey! Thank you! I'm glad that you like it and that you are improving your playing with my lessons.
Chris: Yes, this is the dropped D tunning.
gabriel.- - ZeCoyote20th September 2007
Wonderful as usually. And I won't stop to thank you to create this kind of lessons : playable by beginners like me, useful to acquire some technics and most of all, it doesn't sound like an exercise but it ROXXXXXXXXXX !!!
My wife is greatly impressed by my improving level Thanks to you. - Soul_Decision19th September 2007
Good stuff
The-Levy2nd September 2007I think what he does is an artificial harmonic maximus. Great lesson Gabriel. Exelente!!!
- atomicgtr29th August 2007
Make another lesson, but make it more challenging! Some more difficult solos would be much appreciated!
- Kevin9849727th August 2007

kahall27th August 2007Gabriel -> Super Human ;-)
- Boundary Layer26th August 2007
Love the lesson. A great one for beginners wanting to play something that sounds like music and not just an exercise.
Big fan of Velvet Revolver. - Maximus26th August 2007

Hey GMC! Today I have recorded a lesson inspired in the band Velvet Revolver. Many of you know that Slash is one of my most important influences and the reason why I begin playing the guitar at the age of 11. In this lesson you’ll find a short song very inspired in Velvet’s songs like “Slither” or “She builds machines”.
The tuning that I used is Dropped D (Check my Stoner Lesson 2 if you don’t know what I’m talking about) and the key is D major.
Tempo: 160 bpm
Let it roll!
