The riff in Iron Man is easy and...I think it's fun to play.

Oh, it's damn easy!!!God, I've jammed to that tune so much, but it's still fun every once in awhile!!!:)

learn the blues scale in A then start with some ac/dc, easy as pie.

Just remember to have fun and stay focused!!!Tell us how you improve over time, talk to ya later!!!:)

Thanks for all the help everyone!:p:

^ Yeah cool, thanks for the advice, I'll let you know how I get on!:wave:

My opinion is that you should, at this time, do alternate-picking excercises. Because, unless you have a teacher, in which case you should do what he/she says, chances are you're only doing downstrokes. This means, that when you pick, you should alternate between picking down, pushing the pick to the floor, and then going up, pulling the pick torwards your body. Then when that's comfortable to do, try alternating between strings, then speeding up. After that's down, try to work on your left hand dexterity. So, you should try picking in the following combination on the high E string (Thinnest), B, G, all the way down to the low E string (Thickest).

1-2-3-4-3-2-1

Then, try it with this.

1-4-2-3

Remember to alternate pick all of this. Trust me, I know it's boring, but you'll get much better, much faster.

^ Thanks. :yeah: I'll practice that to improve my speed!

Hey, how ya been doin', judas?Ya know, I'm waiting for you to send me an audition tape of you playing the leads of "Hangar 18" and "Holy Wars..." by Megadeth!!!:yeah:

Hell, who knows...keep on jamming and maybe I'll bring you up on stage with me and...ahem...Dave Mustaine!!!:bowdown: :beer:

For me it's Nothing Else Matters, the only song i was once able to play ...

Come As You Are by Nirvana. It seems to be the one song that people who don't play guitar want to subject me to over and over again. It would be OK if it werent just the first few bars.
