Unless you\u2019ve been living under a rock, you\u2019ve probably heard about Peter Jackson\u2019s documentary \u201cThe Beatles: Get Back\u201d that was released on Disney+ in late 2021. The documentary takes a look at the life of The Beatles towards the end of their incredible run as a group. In this lesson, Ayla Tesler-Mabe breaks down John Lennon\u2019s part from the title track \u201cGet Back\u201d.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Initially, this song was a social commentary, but it eventually turned into the song we all now know and love. The interesting thing about \u201cGet Back\u201d is that John Lennon actually played the lead guitar part instead of George Harrison giving it a totally different feel from other songs by The Beatles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before you get into the lesson, make sure you have a few lead guitar techniques under your belt. If you need to brush up on your lead guitar skills, check out these helpful lessons:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nailing John\u2019s Feel<\/strong>
John\u2019s playing was quite different from George\u2019s since he wasn\u2019t quite as technically practiced. His licks weren\u2019t always clean or precise and sometimes notes might cut off a little abruptly. On many of his bends, he would either over or under-bend the note as well. To really capture the sound of John\u2019s playing, you\u2019ll need to set precision aside and focus more on vibe than anything else. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Learning The Song<\/strong>
Unlike many other songs you\u2019ll learn on the guitar, \u201cGet Back\u201d features two separate guitar solos. Ayla will cover all the nuances and teach you each of these solos note-by-note. Along with the solos, you\u2019ll also dig into the verses, choruses and all the pieces in between. There\u2019s a lot to learn here, so feel free to take this lesson bit by bit. Save the video and come back to it as you progress through each part!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
