  • Ep179 Fixing the Worst Guitar Solo – Heat of the Moment by Asia (feat. Matt Reviere & Jon "HW" Sullivan)
    Nov 12 2025

    In this episode, Desi Serna is joined by friends and fellow guitarists Matt Reviere and Jon "HW" Sullivan for a lively discussion about one of the most debated solos of the 1980s — Steve Howe's guitar solo in "Heat of the Moment" by Asia.

    The trio breaks down why the solo doesn't quite hit the mark, exploring its phrasing, tone, and fit within the song. Along the way, they take a deep dive into Steve Howe's legendary work with Yes, examining how such a brilliant player could deliver something that feels so out of place.

    Then things get creative — each guitarist reveals and plays a replacement solo they composed themselves, reimagining what the song could sound like with a stronger melodic statement.

    It's equal parts music theory, guitar nerdery, and good humor between three friends who love to analyze and play great guitar music.

  • Ep177 Man on the Silver Mountain – How Does This Song Work?
    Sep 23 2025

    In this episode, I break down the 1975 Rainbow classic featuring Ritchie Blackmore and Ronnie James Dio. I take you through the signature opening riff, the shifting minor key changes, the alternate-picked arpeggios, and the fiery solo that defines the track. I also talk about Blackmore's Strat/Marshall setup and show you how studying this song can improve your technique, deepen your understanding of music theory, and boost your confidence as a guitarist.

Like the narrator comment you can take a two hundred and when you get the money replace the stock tunners with locking ones, and replace the bridge pickup. I also sent two days setting it pickup a set of diamond covered files and really spent time beveling, triming, and taking the edges off the frets to make it like an instrument which had money spent on it.
