Slash's first solo album was a huge chart-topping success in the U.K. and across the globe. Lick Library with Danny Gill have worked day and night to bring you Learn to Play Slash, a guitar-tuition DVD that shows you how to master five of the most phenomenal tracks from this album.
Slash, former lead guitarist with GUNS N' ROSES and co-founder of VELVET REVOLVER released his first solo album in April 2010. He is a critically acclaimed guitarist; in 2009 he was voted in Time magazine second on its list of the 10 Best Electric Guitar Players of All-Time. As one of the most distinctive and in demand guitarists in the last thirty years, Slash is equally confident working in hard rock or pop. He is a fluid, articulate guitar player renowned for his ferocious licks and searing solos.
Helping you nail these five superb tracks, teaching you every riff and solo note for note, is guitar teacher supreme Danny Gill. Former pupil of Joe Satriani, prolific TV and film music writer, Danny has played in a number of rock bands and has the skills, techniques and credibility to help you capture a true sense of how Slash plays his guitar.

Fancy hats, sunglasses and cigarettes hanging out the side of his mouth, all mixed with tasty melodic rhythm work and soaring solos make Slash a guitar hero. From Guns N’ Roses to his newer solo career he has always remained true to his style. In this lesson we see how Slash would approach an open chord riff, a melodic, almost vocal guitar solo, and a more technical lick as well. Let’s dive in!
How To Play Like Slash: The Guitarist's Unique Pick Grip
Slash often favours fairly simple open chord progressions. He likes to add in nice picking parts and hammer-ons and pull-offs to make his rhythm parts sound fluid. Going back to basic principles of good solid open chord rhythm playing is always a winner when developing your rhythm playing vocabulary.
In Guns N’ Roses tracks there were often multiple solos. Slash would create a very melodic, almost vocal solo as the first solo that appeared in the song. This guitar lick is all about creating that style. It is in G major Pentatonic and incorporates some melodic bends and hammer-ons. Try extending out this mini lick into a whole solo, using the principle of making it singable.
Here we see how Slash uses some of the notes from example two and creates a more technical lick around that theme. This is a fantastic way to build your soloing repertoire, especially if your piece has multiple solos included in it.
How To Play Slash Chord Progressions On Guitar
For classic Slash style guitar licks, I recommend buying the album “Guns N’ Roses Greatest Hits.” My favourite track on that album being “Paradise City.”
Hey YouTube! Simon here once again for Fundamental Changes. Today we’re looking at a few ideas in the style of the Rock King Slash. Let’s go and have a look at a few of these just after this.
Slash’s rhythm style shows a real delicate approach, and often uses lots of open chords, especially from his Guns N’ Roses days. This example, we’re around a G, A minor, C, G, and a D and a D sus. These are very basic chords, but once you add in a nice picking pattern with the right hand – I’m using a plectrum, not finger picking – and some hammer-ons and some subtle additions, it shows actually, the value you can get from open chords.

Often in Guns N’ Roses days, Slash would have multiple solos in 1 song, which is always fun when you’re a guitarist. The 1
Example 2 here today demonstrates a little lick around the G major pentatonic, which is the same as your E minor, up around the 12
Note, if you’ve not come across that, and it shows you just the vocal quality that can be had from some bends, hammer-ons, and some pull-offs.

Example 3 here today shows what Slash might go on to do in one of his latest solos in Guns N’ Roses days. He’ll take the similar kind of theme that we had in Example 2. It’s not by any means identical, but we’re up around the same place, and I add in far more techniques and ideas to that.
It’s a great way to build up solos in a song. Simple and melodic, and then getting to a stage where you’re adding in more techniques, flavors, styles. This one’s got bends, hammer-ons, pull-offs, rolling through the strings, but it’s still retaining an element of the vocal singable quality.
I hope this gives you some new ideas for your own solos. Please post any video responses, anything you want to see, I’m here to help you out as well, and Joseph I love posting these videos. Take care, I’ll speak to you soon.
