The lesson begins with a full demonstration of the song and then moves into the lesson for each guitar part. The lesson is taught in phrases, describing every note and finger used, totally "By Ear" without tab, music or video. At the end of the lesson there are backing tracks to play along with in different configurations so you can practice with and perform each part with a back-up band.
