UPDATE: Based on all the requests I have made a full lesson WITH tabs for this no whammy bar version of Eddie's Beat It solo: RIP to Kind Edward... pretty much my reason for being a musician. Ed has been a huge inspiration to me. May his music and guitar work live on and inspire countless others! When Michael Jackson's song “Beat It“ was released it was pretty much my first exposure to Eddie Van Halen, until Van Halen's 1984 album came out, then I was an Eddie addict. Even though Ed's “Beat It“ solo was hugely iconic and a big boost for the band, I personally had never learned his guitar solo to he tune until pretty recently, and decided to try it without my Washburn's vibrato bar being currently usable... So that was a fun and somewhat challenging adaptation. The rhythm backing track I'm playing over was put together by me as well. Thanks for the support y'all! #VanHalenBeatItSolo #MichaelJacksonBeatIt #shorts
