Zakk Wylde: “If it’s too hard, you’re not doing it right”

Posted on June 18, 2005 | Filed Under Guitar, Music 

And that is some advice I read in an interview with Zakk Wylde. Someone wrote in and asked how he played a certain song (I can’t remember which one) – the guy said he had been trying to learn it, but it was just too hard. Zakk’s response …

“If it’s too hard, you’re not doing it right.”

In a lot of respects, that’s exactly right. Although Zakk often plays down his abilities on the guitar, he is the best out there right now and not just for the speed. He has an incredible ability to double up on notes and chords, making them sound fresh.

He’s a genius, no doubt about it.
