Default "Jump" - Van Halen - fingerstyle solo guitar

Hi friends of guitar music,
this is my little arrangement for an steel string solo guitar of another "Oldie".... Van Halen´s number one hit "Jump". It surely makes a lot of fun, having a real rock guitar in hand and an Oberheim or Roland Synth in front of you, to play the riffs and rock the song real hard... but when you don´t have the drummer, bass player and the singer around you, you have to do it all alone.... and that´s fun, too....

Hope you like it....

many greetings from Germany
Gerhard

Awesome! Kudos for conceiving it in the first place, not to mention the flawless execution.

Was nearly going to bypass but as soon as I saw the poster's name remembered the Stevie Wonder cover from a couple of years back & how good that was.

Once again Gerhard, first class effort & a lot of imagination to rearrange it like that

Delightful, Gerhard.

I love how great acoustic arrangements like this reveal that that the original tune was itself a pretty fine piece of work.
