Hey everyone!
So after the last tutorial for "Make It Wit Chu" passed 10k views, I wanted to say thank you to everyone who checked it out, enjoyed it, and spent some quality time with the guitar.
Here's another QOTSA tutorial, this is the solo for the title track from the album: "...Like Clockwork".
It has few different sections, each one is totally unique and Josh's tones are just fantastic on this solo.
Notating this solo was a great challenge because the entire solo is played with a slide and Josh's notes are always moving and shifting. Reading this solo is one thing, but I'd suggest listening closely to the track so you could pick up all the unique movements and gestures of this solo.
I'll have the transcription itself available on my site soon as well.
