Video of me playing Sweet Child O Mine solo

DefaultM

Recorded this last night and thought I'd share.
Just using a standard preset on the axe fx 2 and my ibanez rg with BKPs, not that it matters because I recorded this with my phone.

Nice one! You have inspired me to have a go (again). I'm hopeless at remembering tabs, but I'm gonna give it a whirl, it doesn't look to hard really if you can just remember it!

You need to play louder next time! I hate the sound of the strings in the background on videos.

A million views, that's crazy.
There's only one part in it that I find tricky, the rest it's just managing to remember it.

She'll do her back and neck in with it slung that low, keeping her legs straight and together like that.

Nice work

cruxiform

Absolutely spot on. Well played fella. Love it.

Nice work.I can still only play the first half of the solo.Every time I try the second half I end up giving up because it's too fast.I really must practice more but always find something easier to do.Learning Powerslave by Maiden at the moment.Slow going but getting there.

Good work DefaultM

It depresses me that the girl playing it has a million hits. She doesn't even play it especially well.

That girls channel is mad. The scom video (over a million views) has so many sexist comments its sickening but if you look to her latest videos she has now pretty much got her boobs our and is playing "bouncy" tunes. So over 5 years she has realised tits sell.

To the OP good video.

She's also endorsed by Orange, and is playing original stuff as well as her youtube covers. Not that I've subscribed to her youtube channel or facebook page or anything like that ;-)

Nice playing man. How many takes was it before you got it right? If you say just one I will hate you!

No dude I was 14 at the time!  I can still do it, it's the first big solo part I learnt really.  I can appreciate the landmarks for others, just a bit gutted it was 25 years ago already.  I loved and breathed GN'R for so long for every minute of the day when I was a nipper, things still come back to me now, including most of the solos.  Gutted though as I missed out of a shedload of other good music at the time which I've only got into in the last ten years or so.  I don't think Slash and GN'R really deserved the acclaim of greatness, it was just something which seemed good at the time such is rock n roll..  Amazing to think how many GN'R cover bands there are these days andn how classic their songs have become, when we couldn't even play a single song at the time as most people hated them because they preferred older stuff, 80's pop stuff or the precursors to Nirvana type stuff.

Anyway, forgot to say well done to the op.  It sounded good.
