So good! He even added the muted rythmic strums Slash did on "where do we go" at 4:43! Perfect! When most sax players who swear by Charlie Parker probably wouldn't pay attention to a guitar solo in a rock song, it goes to show Jazz lovers the musicianship of Slash as a composer.

Thanks man! Had a lot of fun making this one, really pleased with how it came out. I listened to this album a million times in my teens so I knew 95% of the solo by ear, played it more or less right the first time I tried... but that harmonic minor scale run-up halfway through the solo is a bit more complex than the rest. I found a transcription via Google; transposing & memorising it took about half an hour, perfecting it another half an hour. The take I used was I think the 3rd attempt. Not perfect but as close as I'm likely to get in a single take.

Hi there, thanks for watching! I have played saxophone for 30 years, guitar for 20 years. I had great teachers for saxophone, but I taught myself the guitar so I'm not as good as I could be. I'm from Sydney in Australia. The saxophone sound in the solo section has some distortion on it - it's a very basic free effect that came with Cubase. Made for guitar, but works okay for saxophone. Hope that answers your questions!

Its when you start to play it, that you trully apprecciate the effort and talent of the artist! I am still very far from your quality and relaxation. I still sound a bit like a goose screaming! :)... But.. I will get there, eventually! :) My question for you: What reed and mouth piece are you using and what sax (both Alto and Tenor) do you have?

Hi Fernando! Thanks for watching! ALTO: Mouthpiece for this one was my plastic Dukoff D5. I've since switched to a metal Theo Wanne Earth 2, which is pretty similar but slightly less harsh. Reed would be a Vandoren 2.5, either a ZZ or a Java (which I can't tell a difference between so just buy whatever they have at the store). Sax is a Selmer SA80 SII. TENOR: Mouthpiece is a modified Otto Link 8*, not sure its history or who changed it but it's silver (which I've never seen before) and one of the rails is wider than the other so someone has filed some parts of it away. Works great, whatever it is. Sax is a Yanagisawa T901. BREATHING: I dunno, I guess just years of playing..? It's not something I've ever worked on! A softer reed (2.5) helps with air efficiency, much easier to blow than a 3, but beyond that I don't think there's any secret beyond just having a decent lung capacity.

Yeah I put distortion & wah on after recording it, using the (extremely basic!) guitar modelling plugins my old version of Cubase came with.

Thanks for watching, glad you like it! I like it too, it's one of my best. The sax solo sound was made using a simple distortion plugin within Cubase, really nothing fancy. It's made for guitars but works well with sax or vocals or anything. I added the wah pedal effect afterwards - again just a free plugin. ook a bit of tweaking but there's no complicated software or equipment being used, my studio is VERY basic! Cheap mics and cheap software.
