YGS, i really appreciate the lesson, you’re the best, but i only understood the half of the lesson. the other half, the melody part, i was completely lost. i was wondering if you could part 2 of this song, going more in depth, explaining where our fingers go during the melody. thanks a ton :))

I can’t understand when exactly are you pulling melody strings. It’s so hard, but i think i could do this.

Seems to me he’s plucking the top bass note with each melody note, and play the chord note (Em,C,G,D/F#) between each bass/melody pluck.

Hi Enrich, thanks for your tutorial! I’ve already got your first E-book and it was really helpful to start playing the guitar. I’m glad you’ve made E-book #2!
I ‘ve got a question about the fingerpicking…. do you play the notes of the melody while picking the 6th string (with the bass on the 4th string in between)? I hope you can help me… Keep posting guitar lessons bro! Thanks from Holland

could i ask which distortion pedal you’re using to get this sound? I have a Bose Blues Driver, but I never know exactly how to set the gains, level, treble, mids, bass, and all that good stuff. A response, or even a amp/pedal tutorial would be great! Thumbs so E can see!!!

When you start talking about Slayer in your vdeos, how long will it take until you teach us some Slayerstuff? I’m looking forward to this day! “YourMetalSage” 😉 You are great Erich (and Dave!!), so keep up your work 🙂
All the best from Germany!
