Richie Faulkner (Judas Priest, Elegant Weapons) Plays His Favorite Guitar Riffs

Those are sweeeeeet axes, man. Richie is a wicked guitarist

miss graham :(

Hey Loudwire, I am a professional videographer and just some friendly advice. Pull the person away from the background more so they don't blend into it so much. You will notice how much better it looks right away!

The guy who blew some life into the band again. Will always be thankful for what he brought to the table.

What an amazing guitar and how bout the sound. Man You Rock!!

Halls of Valhalla is perfect Priest - That album is the best of the Faulkner era. I wish Downing was allowed to join him when Tipton was no longer able to play the full set.

Brilliant guitarist great talent richie

Did they ever say what caused the heart issue? No one knows? Hmm…

I didn't think Richie was a victim of learning in the Analogue age, re playing to vinyl. I learnt the same way and you never knew whether it was correct ot not, even when it sounded identical. Life pre internet involved dep commitment to ones chosen interests, cars, guitars and everything in between. Love your work Richie, a true exciting live player, superb timing and feel. Love to see a solo record with some clean tones as well as big valve crunch, which at 54yo, I still cannot work out why I love it and need it so much.

Fabulous, Fantastic bad ass fucker🎉❤

Falcon destroys on guitar and is a groovy & down to earth person. 🤘🏻🦔

He's such a cheap KK copy, the V guitar, the blond dyed hair, it's just laughable.

I’ve seen a couple of richies tutorials he just explains things so easily so well I guess explaining it to her s 8 year old self great job

hey brother

So glad to hear that even Ritchie refers to the second half of the intro to The Sentinel as "really fast picking". \m/_ _\m/

Hes got No ego. which is great.

Right from the intro you blonde liar,
Mf is 10 years younger than me and say he was figuring out note per note a song he wanted to play by listening to the record moving the needle by step haha

You pos dont try to look like a 1960-70s legend,

When you were young tabs were everywhere,
Everything was available,
You guys remember Olga right?

First time I saw him playing live he was in Lauren Harris’ band: I was blown away by his playing and thought: Wow, who’s this guy??? Then some years later he joined Judas Priest. Last time I saw them live there was Andy Sneap subbing for Glenn. Richie basically handled with ease 90% of the solos, even those which originally would be split with Glenn. WHAT A BEAST!

With a bit of Robin Trower thrown in.....

admit it, this is just Christan Bale with a blonde wig. very talented guy he is

Richie and andy sneap cant wait for the next priest album

Fuck,mofo you killed jp,fu.

When are you guys touring again ?

Hey Joe wasn't a Bob Dylan tone

This dude played Painkiller with a torn aorta. Nothing can ever be more metal than that.

Love the Hendrix and the passion 😎

Licks from Jimi Hendrix sounded so cool, but JP/Weapons parts not so much :(

КАКОЙ ТИХИЙ УЖАС. не одной живой ноты.... Жесть

He's #1, of the best 🤘 He's like rockinroll Jesus

His clean technique kills me!

Richie is a great guitarist, good thing to hear someone play with feeling and who does not sweep every third second

Sounds kinda like Christian Bale

I give Richie major props for continuing his career after what happened to him while performing. He is in every sense of the word a walking miracle. And he has not lost any of his talent. God bless you Richie!

I have the exact same upbringing and history as Richie...oh except he ended up in Judas Priest! hahah Seeing that Richie is such a Hendrix fan and formed his style in formative years I wonder what he thinks of Satriani- who I consider to be the modern Hendrix. if you've seen Joe live you know what I'm talking about. BTW, Dropped down a full step here for the blokes playing along!

Who……..

Your life would have taken a completely different path if you had stuck with the piano. Rock-on man! 🤘🤘

truly amazing

Halls of Valhalla is so badass!

Ooh! I wish he would have played the main solo for horns at the end their....dammit!

Hey Richie - Bob Dylan didn't write Hey Joe, Billy Roberts did 😎

Richie rocks, but not a fan of Elegant Weapons - terrible band name and the singer is cheesy.

Best Priest riff BY FAR : DESERT PLAINS

Whats the univibe sounding pedal? that sounds rad!

how do not love the guy!!!!! wellspoken, great player, the axe, the Falcon!! Richie

Fuck, Richie replaced KK and now he looks like KK, time flies.

when we were young in jr high
during the early '80s -
it was important for all of us
so whenever
we could be getting together to jam or hanging out
and we each would show our own take on
that opening
but just guitar and amp
no other instruments Bass or Drums
but we maybe sometimes
have the
cassette tape 📼
player
going along also

i like neck binding for a few songs -
the signature models look
F heLLa rAd 🤘🔥⚡
i prefer LP special or LP studio type without binding
or various stratocaster types of necks

🤘🏼🇧🇷
