Learn Some Classic Judas Priest Tunes from Richie Faulkner
Faulkner takes you through "Electric Eye," "Painkiller," "Hell Bent for Leather" and more in this episode of Gibson TV's 'Riff Lords' series.
In the time since its launch in January, Gibson TV has played host to a number of cool new videos on all things guitar. Its latest series though, might be its most awesome creation to date.
Riff Lords features guitarists of all musical inclinations - using a Gibson or Epiphone - giving in-depth tutorials on how to play their most beloved songs.
A recent episode of the series features Judas Priest's Richie Faulkner showing viewers how to play a number of the band's biggest and loudest hits.
In the lesson, Faulkner - Epiphone Inspired By Gibson Flying V and other Gibsons in hand - takes you through "Electric Eye," "Painkiller," "Hell Bent for Leather," "You've Got Another Thing Comin’" and more.
You can check the video out above. If you enjoy it, as a bonus, we've included Bon Jovi guitarist Phil X's Riff Lords episode below, through which you can learn all of your favorite Bon Jovi riffs.
