Eric Clapton "Layla" guitar riff lesson
-> Go to part 1

 

   

e|---------------------|
b|---------------------|
g|---------------------|
d|-----0h3p0---0-7\5-3-|
a|-0h3-------3---5\3-1-|
e|---------------------|

 

The tricky part for me here, was to get to the slide fast enough (after the hammer- and puoll off pattern). If you don't get to it in time, the whole riff gets "out of phase".

Now have a closer look at the tricky passage:

   

e|---------------|
b|---------------|
g|---------------|
d|-----0h3p0---0-|
a|-0h3-------3---|
e|---------------|

 
In the ending part of the riff Clapton elaborates with the bass movement - to create a bass line along with the powerchords.

 

   

e|-------------|
b|-------------|
g|-------------|
d|-----5-----7-|
a|-0---3-0---5-|
e|---3-----3---|

 

Good luck!
