Joe Perry's best solo? (Patreon)

There weren’t any good close-up videos online of the fingerings used in Amazing, and both Joe Perry and Brad Whitford tend to improvise around the chord changes rather than sticking to a strict note-for-note version. I used my best judgment after listening to a partially isolated track I found on YouTube.

The lick in measure 31 is a bit more subtle in the studio version, but it’s definitely in there if you listen closely — I just didn’t roll the volume back for that part in this video.

The outro solo is another example of Perry’s live improvisation. It’s never played quite the same way twice, but I did my best to capture the spirit and feel of his original performance.

This video is sponsored by PRS Guitars, and features the PRS Custom 24 SE. It feels, and sounds, absolutely amazing. It's a fantastic affordable option for anyone who wants that classic PRS tone without jumping into the higher-end models. The finish on this guitar is absolutely beautiful, and I thought it was the great match for this song. I also used this same guitar in my tab video for Collective Soul - Gel, so be sure to check that one out.

Hope you enjoy this one! Let me know if there are any other Aerosmith songs you’d like to see — maybe Train Kept A Rollin’ ? or something else from the vault?
