Great lesson. Always wanted to learn this and now,at 75, you have helped me to do that!

Dear Sir many thanks for this wonderful clear and precise tutorial! I learned a lot from you!

Your lesson on this is the most thorough and easiest one I have found so far in all KZread to follow. There was some areas I was stuck on and you help me clarify those for me. Thx a bunch. Keep rocking!!

By far the best lesson of this solo on KZread. Easy to understand the notation seems right on. Thanks so much for posting!

You should define “Swooping Eagles” as more specifically, the Don Henley “Heavy Hand - Fickle Finger of Fate.”

Thanks! I original learned from Guitar for The Practicing Musician in the late 80s, so around the same time. Was always so much fun to get those magazines in the mail each month. :)

One of my favorite solos to play. I play the harmonized section alittle differently because of just one guitarist, but great job.

Thanks Dave. This is one of those all time greats, that have scared me to attempt. Now at 77, with your expert help, I'M NAILING IT.

Incredible lesson! Instantly subscribed. Your "boxes method of teaching is so good, you should patent it! Best teacher of a solo on the internet. Going to surf your site all day, hoping to find a lesson on the Eruopa version from Moonflower. Thank you!

I've walked through a few of your lessons now. The approach is fantastic and the real versions are impeccable. I've saved many. Each time I'm ready for another I grab one and you always get me through them. Thanks so much.

Awesome, awesome, awesome...as usual! Thank you soo much for putting this one up. Perfectly done. I have no reason to keep putting off learning this one now, lol. Such an iconic and fantastic solo.

This is so awesome, great job and thank you!!!!!!!

Fantastic! ive been looking for a guide for this and the fact that you go through it slowly step by step is a really great way of teaching. I find the sections really helpful is it puts what your playing into your mind, and the fact that the whole solo is all in one video is really helpful so thank you very much!

Excellent way of explaining, Super,, 🎉❤

Thank you SO MUCH sir! The effort you have put into this lesson is appreciated so much!

Love the detailed coaching.

I'm learning this on a 100$ Orangewood acoustic fml

Can you unpack the solo for the Beatles' "She's a Woman"? Lots of lessons out there that either don't quite do it right or do it right, but skip the technique of how to do it. From how you covered this one, I know you are the one to do it and teach it right. Please?

I follow your tabs on Hotel California solo, I noticed that yours is so much different to most on KZread. Its hard to know if we are learning it correctly if we cant hear your version played by yourself. The Harmony section is the one that really is off the scale compared to everyone else playing it. I love yours as it seems the easist but not sure if its correct.

KZread was forced to remove my original video that included the performance, by someone claiming to own the rights to the original song. Apparently, my performance was too close to the original 😉. However, because of your request, I have uploaded a video on the Rumble website, showing me perform the solo. Because it is a new upload over there, it is not showing up in searches, but you can use this web address: rumble.com/v3q5wn7-hotel-california-guitar-solo-with-tabs.html

It's interesting how all the tabs I've seen including this has him playing a couple notes on the 12th fret. For the start of the solo I mean. But, when I watched Felder demonstrate the solo for guitar world he never plays on the 12th fret.

I use TH3 amp simulator and I don't know how to get the same tune plz help

It was played through a vox super reverb I think .

Why does he been down on the sevens but he bends up on the 10 I don't understand

Bending with the pinky? Why tho, it makes it harder

I am 100% confident it starts at the 3rd fret. If you have the capability to do so, try taking the original track and slowing it down to somewhere between 50 and 75% speed. Then isolate that slide and listen carefully. Thanks, and best of luck to you in learning the solo :)
