Fade To Black - Metallica

Metallica Guitar lessons

This song was one of my favorites as a teenager. Really connected, and maybe you feel that too.

You can play this real simple, as a beginners open chord strummy thing, or you can learn all the fingerstyle and solo parts and do it for real.

There's a vid for each bit, one for the intro, one for the chords, verses and chorus and another for the solo. I didn't do the harmony part solo bit, cos it was going to be hard to teach, and it's not hard to play if you get a tab.

I mentioned in the video the Harmonics lesson, if you are not sure how to do them.

I'm sure you'll enjoy it, not matter what level you are at there is something to get into.

As a little bonus, a cool orchestral version is featured (6 minutes in) in a video of my fave base jumper, Jeb Corliss, a total legend. Insane. I'd love to do this one day, but I don't think I have big enough kahoona's! ;) I don't even skydive any more :( Long may you run dude!
