I decided to start working on this arrangement because It was a great challenge. When you listen to the chorus of the original song, you can hear the main riff (recorded by Steve Lukather) sounding together with the Michael's vocal melody and, of course, drums, bass and other instruments. My objective was to play all of this parts together: the main riff, the vocal melody and the percussion part. I had to find the proper tuning and make good use of the harmonics but in the end I got it. The tapping part is to remark on the great solo that Eddie Van Halen recorded for this song.

We know that it is also about how the guitar was recorded. Needless to say that it was done before shooting the video and it was a proper microphone in a proper room.
While an acoustic guitar is an amazing instrument, turns out it is rather hard to amplify its sound with “pickups” without making it sound “plastic”. Do you agree?
