November Rain


"November Rain" is a power ballad by Guns N' Roses, written by lead vocalist Axl Rose and released in February 1992 as the third single from Use Your Illusion I. Running nearly nine minutes, it was the longest song to enter the top ten of the Billboard Hot 100 at the time of its release. For electric guitar players, it offers a rich combination of clean melodic passages, expressive lead work, and the iconic multi-part guitar solo sections that showcase dynamic range and emotional phrasing.

  • At almost nine minutes long, it was the longest song to enter the Billboard Hot 100 top ten upon its 1992 release.
  • The song peaked at number one on the US Cash Box Top 100, making it one of Guns N' Roses' biggest chart successes.
  • "November Rain" appears on Use Your Illusion I, the band's third studio album, released in 1991.
Gibson Les Paul Standard
Guitar

Gibson Les Paul Standard

Slash's weapon of choice, particularly late-'50s specs with mahogany bodies that deliver the thick, singing tone heard throughout 'Appetite for Destruction.' The Les Paul's weight and sustain complement his cranked Marshall, allowing solos to bloom with harmonic richness.

Gibson Les Paul Custom
Guitar

Gibson Les Paul Custom

Offering a slightly different tonal character with a thinner body profile, the Custom gives Slash an alternative voice while maintaining the Les Paul's core warmth and sustain essential to his signature lead sound.

Marshall JCM800
Amp

Marshall JCM800

The split-channel JCM 800 2205 defines Slash's crunch, delivering natural tube saturation and midrange presence without artificial scooping, crucial for maintaining clarity in heavily driven passages.

Marshall Plexi (1959 Super Lead)
Amp

Marshall Plexi (1959 Super Lead)

Modified 1959 Super Lead amps pushed hard created the iconic raw power and harmonic distortion of 'Appetite for Destruction,' with power tube breakup that shaped GNR's raw, blues-rooted rock sound.

Seymour Duncan Alnico II Pro
Pickup

Seymour Duncan Alnico II Pro

These lower-output Alnico II humbuckers retain dynamic expressiveness even when the Marshall is cranked, producing a warm, slightly soft attack that makes Slash's tone creamy rather than harsh.

Dunlop Cry Baby Wah
Pedal

Dunlop Cry Baby Wah

Slash's signature SW-95 wah adds vocal expression to solos like 'Civil War' and 'Estranged,' staying true to his minimalist pedalboard philosophy where tone comes primarily from guitar and amp interaction.
