Thanks, Mike. I appreciate the note. There’s always been something about the energy of that solo that’s fascinated me. Hope all is well. G 🙂🎸
If youd play like this in early 80s we wouldnt had George Lynch, but George Balulis.

Now THAT would have been something! We’d be having a totally different conversation now! Thanks for writing! GB
Excellent rendition. Anybody who disliked this is simply a frustrated guitarist. Great job, dude!
Wow, that was something. And those sweeps starting at 0:30 were incredible. Fantastic ESP model also. Bravo!

Thanks so much, Ed! You made my day!🙂👍🏻🎸🤘🏻
i dont normally watch homemade youtube interpretations, but i came here thru the original "paris is burning" video & wound up really enjoying this cover. props for the great tone, guitar and skills. keep up the good work :-)
I think if you had Lynch delay on that sound that it'd be thee most accurate thing I've seen on youtube. You should slow it down for us dummies.
George, Thanks for sharing this one. Great tone, chops, transcription, guitar, and selection of Lynch's best work. A+++++
One of my favorites from George,Very well done man!!!
I like it. lynch has the best metal vibrato ever.
Got my guitar teacher to teach me this in 1985 if I’m not mistaken. Killer job!😮

George, great job! That solo has evaded me for many MANY years. Way to go on such a sweet tone!!
Dude I've been wanting to thank you for a while now for posting this vid. Before my early 90's carpal tunnel bout,I could play this close enough a metalhead could recognize it,but the only other person I had seen play it up till now was a Dr. Andy Gurley that teaches at University of Tennessee-Martin,and your's is a much crisper version :). Thanks a bunch,Tommy D.
Definitely needed this video
Excellent Job!! That performance is spot-on man. Love it.
it’s spot on without the re-verb It’s spot on Thanks for this
Woww impressive playing and excellent transcription George. Great job. Congratulations.
Your spot on as always GB. There is such an improvement in Lynches' playing from this to something like Heaven Sent. I like that so much better and you nail that one too. !
great play!!! perfect play
Fantastic Job
YOU NAILED IT !!!!! OUTSTANDING! 5*
Great job Dude
wow due that was awesome.. love the kami you got there also!!!
Excellent. Well played, and great tone. : )
awesome!!!
Great job-Lynch's playing was so much more memorable back then.

Jase McCormick thank you. This one always made the hair on my neck stand up when I was younger. I just HAD to pull it apart once I had the ability to.
Great job... my favorite lynch guitar too....
I know there are a lot of guitar players with more technique more technical knowledge but you just have to love George’s technic style and finesse

You have never played with George now have you???? This guy can do the moves but he has zero feeling and thats the main difference between experts and pretenders. Playing with feeling comes with an education in music, takes less than 15 seconds to separate the educated experts from the armature players.

Awesome! My favorite lynch guitar there...
That's excellent dude!
When I talked to George at NAMM 2011, I asked about these solos especially the one of Beast from the East. His reply on why he doesn't do them anymore, "Cocaine is a crazy drug".
Awesome bro! ☝🏻🎸🤩 💥
Wow Thoroughly impressed
Wow ~~Great!!
KILLER playing, awesome. Robin :o)

Nicely done Dude
Awesome, dude!
Very solid dude. I steal licks from this solo but never put in the time to actually learn it all like you did. Obviously, time well spent in your case!
Flawless
Well done!!! and playing it on the right axe too!!!
Very Cooooool! Always loved that solo and it's up there with the best of them. Would love to learn it. A papastache type lesson on this would be awesome!!! :D
ur sick! awesome job

Won't see George playing like that these days. It's like he works overtime, to ensure that he DOES NOT SHRED. EVER.
Nice!!!

Great job man! nice guitar too..
Perfect
hell yes!
Very Cool! Love it! \m/ A must learn for myself.
my dream guitar...
Great job!! Ok man, next time I wanna see you nail the Suicide Solution Live solo from Tribute by the greatest Rock Guitarist of all time - Randy Rhoads! :-)
sick!
@aaronbergAPB Thank you. I appreciate your taking the time to send that along.
DAMMMMM kick in that delay and let's PARTEH!!! NICE JOB! (someone who seen them a few times in Irvine...)
It's the volume knob - it's a push/pull pot. Down=bridge, up=neck. There is no "both" option.
Thank you. You fucking killed it
Never heard this ever excellent how do you get a great tone over phone
God damn it
bad ass!
Very interesting take on this solo. I tend to play it a little differntly, but seeing your version, I coudl easily borrow some of your analysis...again, your execution is masterful, and I love have you nail it! Very cool, wicked playing!!
damn, you are good!
Party on Garth ✌👊😎 Hell yea.
Nice
Dokken tribute band needed!You are well qualified!
What gear did you use?! That sounds phenomenal
Awesome job dude! How does that guitar play? I've been considering getting one of the George Lynch ESP models but I've heard mixed things about ESP in general and I don't have any experience with ESP.
Awesome. Never saw anyone play that to a "t". And I'm an ex guitar player and professional stagehand

Thanks so much, Bill! It’s definitely one of my top 2 or 3 GL solos. Take care! 🙂🎸 G
@mapleaxslinger125 I am willing to bet that the Distortion will sound VERY bright and bighting in maple. As I mentioned, I do not believe it is a sustain killer. I actually have a distortion in an alder guitar. To my ear, it really lacks note clarity and body. Just my opinion though. The Screamin Demon is a great midway point between something like the JB and the Distortion. Thanks for taking the time to write!
@mapleaxslinger125 Sure it will work. Just know upfront htat the distortion is a very frothy sounding pickup - for my taste it's almost too much. I have a JB in my Craig Rundels Bones guitar, and Screamin' Demons in the Lynch models.I love the organic, round, wide open sound of the JB. The Demon is a bit more crisp and refined. If you like the "sucked backward through a jet engine", full-throttle distortion, the distortion's great for that.
Sweet merciful shit that's awesome! I have lived with that song (the one off their greatest hits with the solo intro) all my life and I've got to say that you sound damn close to the real original. How hell long did it take you to figure it out?
Fuck yea dude
holy shit O.O
Cool!!! \m/
@ilikehairbands Thanks! The guitar plays great! I used to sell ESP at my shop - I have always known them to be very high quality (not speaking of the LTDs though). Hope it helps, G
