The All American Rejects
In this guitar lesson you will learn how to play the solo to Dance Inside by The All American Rejects. It’s a simple solo recommended for beginners and intermediates as it features mostly octaves and pinch harmonics. A pinch harmonic is achieved when the thumb or index finger on the picking hand slightly catches the string after it is picked, canceling the fundamental of the string, and letting one of the overtones dominate. It can really only be played on an electric guitar as it doesn’t resonate very loud on an acoustic. It takes a few tries to get the hang of, but it’s not too difficult.
