This is my favorite song to play on guitar...hands down. And, perhaps the most challenging solo I've created to date. That doesn't mean it is only for advanced players. The techniques addressed in this song are priceless for players of all levels...crosspicking, Drop D Tuning, triplets, drone picking, "up the neck" playing, etc. When you master this one, you can be proud.

Third time coming back to this lesson over two years. It's amazing what shows up when you're ready for it.

Same here at first. What fixed it for me was practicing that measure by itself for a week, no B part at all.

There's a slower jam track under the resources tab on this lesson, worth grabbing.

Don't force the pinky stretch. Move your thumb down behind the neck first and the stretch mostly takes care of itself.

Try it without the pick for a few passes. Sounds silly but it told me my right hand was doing too much.
