First Time Playing An Eddie Van Halen Guitar Solo BY EAR

Описание: The part 2 none of you were waiting for 🤣

“Maybe one day” turned out to be the same day. Check out the end of my previous video for context!

Ok, so this was just a bit of fun but I’ve seriously always loved Michael Jackson’s music and one of the main reasons is the groove and/or guitar solos. This one by Eddie Van Halen from Beat It is one of my favourites and I never thought it might be possible for an ACOUSTIC violin to recreate any of those sounds. Until now. Except obviously this was one epic, hilarious fail. But the fail was actually a success!! Who knew I could just put fingers down randomly and more or less be in the ballpark!? 😝

I think there are many a pinched harmonic in this solo and now I know how to make that sound on the violin (check last video), I think it might actually be possible to play this fairly accurately. I’ll be back in a hundred years when I finally work it out 🫠

So…what solo should I try next? 🎸
