"Sweet Home Alabama" - Lynyrd Skynyrd

Hello Fretlight Players - here is this week's FREE "Fretlight Video Riff"!

This week's Video features the intro section from "Sweet Home Alabama" by Lynyrd Skynyrd. The progression for this song is based around three chords, but incorporates many single note fills between each of the chords. There are also many style elements like pull-offs, sliding, bending and muting that are used to 'spice up' the single note fills. Remember that you can SLOW DOWN the video and LOOP IT until you can get the chords as well as the fills up to full speed.

To download this week's Video Riff, click the download link shown below, save the video to your computer, and open it up through Fretlight Studio (using Video Player).

Don't forget to check back next week for your next FREE Video Riff!

Have Fun :)
