Become a Copy Cat KING like your good buddy Uncle Ben Eller! I STOLE this rad shred picking sequence from Jake E. Lee's Bark at the Moon (Ozzy Osbourne) solo and disguised it just enough that you'd never know.... ever good artist is a thief, and I'm here to show you how to do it! This is an excellent way to get more mileage out of everything you learn and to start finding your own voice on the guitar. I'll show you the original, the variations I made, the alternate picking techniques you need to play it, then how to flip it and reverse it Missy Elliot style for MAXIMUM GAINS! Lets go!

One of my friends older brothers was in a band back in the mid 80's. I remember going over there one night and he was in the basement playing Bark at the Moon, solo and all. He had a Marshall stack and an Ibanez Destroyer. I was hooked. I got a guitar a week later!

Been on a major Jake E. Lee vibe recently and just started learning bark at the moon solo from your video so this is perfect timing! QQ ben - have you heard any Michael Schenker before? He was a huge influence on randy rhoads and all the guys from megadeth, and metallica. Would recommend listening to "Into the Arena" for some major cool 80s electric guitar lead if not! Thanks bud

Michael Schenker said his favorite player was Eddie . "I love Eddie's playing, you know, he's for me, by far the best guitar player. And even though I wasn't listening to music, you could never get away [from] hearing [it] anywhere... And so really, he was fascinating. I mean, he's my favorite guitar player."

Music IS communication and like all communication the language used is shared. We can't get around saying something that hasn't been said before in some way. Well, I've tried and it requires using a different "language." The problem there I discovered is that all of the potential good ones are pretty much in use and have been for a very long time.

Why are we calling this a 'lick'? This is a minor pentatonic sequence. While I always enjoy the embedded 'Easter egg' humor in all these videos, not sure calling a sequence a lick was meant as humor...? I think there was a ton of potential education missed here, since we were actually here. This is a perfect exercise for those that are stuck within the 1st position minor pentatonic 'horizontal' box, since it starts helping them to see the scale continue vertically. Also, specifically pointing out why this is a sequence - which lends to creating your own sequences. Always look forward to your videos Ben. ♥
