Wanted to share some more riffs that taught me guitar! This is a follow-up to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63uVoDUW05A if you'd like to hear about some other riffs that helped me learn :). Thanks to MOOER for sponsoring this video, you can check out the Hornet 05i here: amzn.to/3RvWA9r (affiliate link)

I love these riffs. Great choices 🔥🤘🏼
-
Hall of the mountain king seems like a fun exercise. Famous tone from Norway's beloved Edward Grieg (my home country). Metal and a lot of other music could not have existed without a classical foundation. Tony Iommi even mentioned his influence from classical on the "Black Sabbath" song.
-
The riffs for Paranoid are some of the first that helped me learn palm muting too! I like that riff you played from Nightwish. I like them too, but I haven't learned any of their riffs yet. Think I'll change that starting with She Is My Sin. Sick video 🤘🏻
-
The 5th riff is interesting for sure. Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow version is my favorite.
-
It’s been pretty cool to follow along with your progress. Getting better all the time!
-
Totally agree, I am so much better at learning when I'm passionate about the song/riffs. Although, I see that my technique gets behind for styles that I don't feel so keen, so I focused on lead for my first 3 years, and now I see some basics of Palm mutting that I still haven't nailed... I see that's also important as I am trying to cover all the guitars nowadays (rather than just the one)... very instructive video, as always :)
-
i made it early. great sounding riffs. you've come along way.
-
Great video, so interesting seeing all these different songs and riffs that shaped your guitar journey and learning how they did so.
-
I learned more about playing guitar in this 15 minute video than I have in lessons for years. Thank you++
-
It’s amazing to see how far you’ve come along and figuring out all the little nuances that playing guitar entails. Awesome… take care, 🎸🤓🌎☮️❤️
-
SWEET video! Excellent songs!
-
Much respect, I have watched you from the start. I tried learning the guitar, but gave up. I'm glade you have done so well at learning and playing and sharing your skills.
-
Cool tone, Rachel ! Keep going ! Excellent video.
-
Always love your videos. I was trying to figure out which riff you liked most, but you seem to love them all. The tone on the Ghost riff was amazing through that tiny amp, but Nightwish was my favorite one there. Rock on!
-
Incredible playing as always Rachel! You do these songs/riffs justice by playing them with incredible precision! Can’t wait for the next video, maybe more vlogs? Hope you’re staying well!
-
Love your vids❤
-
As soon as you come up on my notifies, I click. The fact you're a Ghestie AND you're Ghost riffing is the icing on the cake. Well done, as always
-
Getting back on my guitar learning journey and this is definitely the video I needed to unlock some further progress! Thank you!
-
I loved that you showed specifically what it was about each riff that helped you, and then broke them down even further. This video is wonderful. 🎸✨
