Youth Gone Wild Guitar Lesson
In this fiery tutorial, master instructor Danny Gill breaks down Skid Row’s iconic anthem “Youth Gone Wild.” Known for its hard-hitting riffs and blistering energy, this track is a classic example of late ’80s rock and metal guitar. Danny expertly guides you through each section, from the gritty intro riff that sets the rebellious tone to the thunderous power chords in the chorus and those unforgettable lead licks that defined the sound of Skid Row. You’ll get a close look at how to dial in the raw power and precision that guitarist Dave "The Snake" Sabo brought to this track. Danny walks you through the rhythm parts, highlighting the aggressive palm-muted chugs, punchy chords, and syncopated grooves that bring the verses to life.
