Very cool! Thanks for this. If however you are looking for a real “Knee Buckler” for your next one, might I suggest giving Jesus Christ Pose a look. Kim Thayil will give your right hand one of the best workouts ever. Plenty of good syncopated rhythm work in this one.

2026-03-09 15:01:45 +0000 UTCIf you're taking more Maiden requests: "Die With Your Boots On".....but if you're just taking general requests for the next song to learn: "Sweet Little Loving" by White Lion (I really dig your breakdowns of Vito's playing). Thank you for all the great videos!

There are 3 or 4 different versions just within that platform and they have the choice to change between both guitars and bass. Check it out! https://www.songsterr.com/a/wsa/iron-maiden-aces-high-tab-s10018
