[E] [D] [A] [E] [D]
[A] [E] Oh, hey, how's it going?
It's Colin Daniel here from RiffinNinja.com.
So you want a riff or two?
You want a solo?
A little solo?
Yeah, here's one.
Riffs or solos, they're all out of the same thing, and that's a scale.
It's a single note line of some sort.
I'm limited with my time here, so I couldn't teach you anything very complex,
but I do want to give you a taste of what I offer.
This is in a song called The Last Time by the Rolling Stones.
And this is a riff I think, even if you don't like the Rolling Stones,
you don't like their music or anything, [Eb] this is a really important riff
in the sense that it's used in a lot of other solos and songs.
And you'll find this very useful, and it's probably one of the easiest riffs to learn
if you're just getting into it, and it's a good one to put into your collection.
It's a very good riff.
It's based on the E pentatonic minor scale.
[Bm] [Em] [Bm]
There's hundreds of riffs that come from this and solos.
It starts with a slide and then creates a double stop, meaning a double note harmony.
I use my third finger because I'm positioning myself.
You've got to watch the fingering on this.
I will position myself so that I can catch the notes, because it is quick.
It's a very good practice for you, fingering-wise.
And I'll start with my third finger on the third string, second fret,
and I'll slide up two frets.
And while that note, the B note, is ringing out underneath it,
I'll drop my [D] second finger on the third [Dm] fret, second string, so it'll sound [Bm] like this.
[Em] [Bb]
[Bm] [Em] [Bm] So that's the first thing.
Now
[Db] I leave [Bm] my second finger down and use my pinky here,
because otherwise you have to go
Like if you use your first,
[A] [Bm] I find that more awkward because of the rest of the movement.
That's kind of up to you.
I have my reason for using the third finger, [E] because without moving my [Bm] hand very much,
I can play that.
[E]
That's an E, by the way.
[Bm] So it's [B] like
So it slides up, you pick it once, you slide up, [Bm] you let it ring.
Underneath it you pick the second string on the third fret, [B] back to the third string.
And then before [E] you play the second string, you drop your pinky down on the fifth fret,
and then pick up.
[Bm] So it's down, up, [E] down, up.
And you let them [Bm] ring out together.
[E] [Bb] [Bm] [E] [Bm]
[E] [Bm] So this is the timing now.
[E] [Bm] That's your first group.
[E] [Bb] [Bm]
[E] [Bm] [E] [Bb]
[Bm] Now here, you'll see that I use my first [Ab] finger.
[A]
[B] Now I slide up.
Using my first finger, it looks like I'm barring all three strings.
I'm just keeping my hand ready, because what has to happen here
is when I slide up from the first fret on the third string,
[Ab] and [A] it's a pick, slide, and then ring.
Right after that I have to catch the second string, second fret.
And it's very quick, so instead of [Db]
going
[A] And I want them to kind of ring together.
[Gb]
And the first string is just muted, so [Ab] it doesn't ring [A] out.
[Bm] So in the end it goes just [Ab] [A]
[Bm] like that.
[A] That [E] sounds very cool with the E, [D] [A] D, and A [Bm] chord.
[B]
And I practice back and forth, going back [E] and forth.
Like I'll go E, [D] [A] D, [B] and A.
[A] [E]
[D] [A] [B]
[Ab] [A] And it's all [Bm] in your picking.
Down, up, down, up, down, [A] up, down, [Bm] up, down, up, [Ab] down, up.
[A] [Bm] [Bb]
[Bm] [B] [A] [E]
[D] [A] [E] [D] [A]
[B] [A] [E]
[D] [A] [E] There you go.
There's a fairly simple solo riff.
It's a great riff.
Later, if you dig into the guitar and keep going,
you'll discover many, many other riffs that are related to this.
Please come and visit my site if you like, and see what I've got to offer you.
This is a taste of what I like to do.
