Guitar Lesson: How to play Led Zeppelin - Heartbreaker

Heartbreaker starts off by essentially running through the A blues scale in open position. A gradual bend on the opening G note and vibrato on the C are the only flourishes. It’s easy to play this using just your first, second and third fingers. The challenge comes as the whole riff is moved up a tone to B, because the strings that were open must now be fretted. You’ll need to use all four fingers for this part. Buy a copy of Total Guitar here:
