As a teenager i spent hours working on this classic solo from Big Trouble, (David Lee Roth: “Eat ’em and Smile”). Also this Guitar Player Magazine from 1986 was a real treasure! I managed to master the whole solo. Even those final tapping parts note per note. But anyways this alternate picking part was something I really got hooked on.
