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.

If 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!

Hey Mitch, there are TONS of them out there, but my favorite source is Songsterr. 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

Maiden has always been my mostest favoritest band of all time. Makes me happy that you did this breakdown!! Thanks, Unc!!

Love this edition of WESL! I'd recommend doing "Hallowed Be Thy Name" next time you do a Maiden tune! It's got everything they excel at, and the drama of the song is just unparalleled in my opinion.

Thanks for doing IM - and a great primer on harmonizing solos

Playing Iron Maiden as a teenager taught me (the hard way) that it's important to keep your hands relaxed.

That was an awesome deep dive, dear Uncle Ben, and thanks so much for including the bass parts (I also play the big guitar :) ! For a suggestion, I'll go with To Tame A Land, the Dune-inspired epic that concludes the Piece Of Mind album. Keep up the good work!

Pardon my ignorance…where do I find associated tabs? New to Patreon.

Sure could have used this in my formative years…so much unnecessary butchery.
