In this little segment we're going to take a look at Motorhead's "Ace of Spades". It's really easy, but before we start we want to make sure that we're tuned down a half step and that our low E string is tuned down a whole step and a half. The tuning for this song would be C sharp, G sharp, C sharp again, F sharp, A sharp and D sharp. Okay. The song starts off on the second fret of the low E string. We'll hit that open string. Okay. The next riff is in the third fret of the low E string and the third fret of this D string here. We need our pinkie to come up to the fourth fret of the of the G string, third fret of the G string with the ring and then the second fret with the middle finger. In context slowly it sounds like this. Okay. To speed it has this sound. There's not to much to that riff. I hope you catch on easily. In our next segment we're going to talk about "Cowboys from Hell" by Pantera.
