Interviews and tab transcriptions from the session guitarists who played on the records you grew up with — the L.A. studio scene of the 70s, 80s, and 90s. Hard rock, hair metal, pop rock, and the players behind them.
Session Stories: long-form interviews with guitar legends — Dann Huff, Michael Landau, Tim Pierce, Harry Cody, Butch Walker, Doug Aldrich, Tony Bruno, Bob Bradshaw, and more.
Session Solos & Riffs: note-for-note video demos of the solos, riffs, and licks that defined an era.
Every solo we demo comes with a free, accurate PDF + Guitar Pro tab at SessionSolos.com. No paywall, no ads, no sketchy download sites. Just the tab.
Run by John Talman — guitarist, builder, and lifelong fan of the session musicians who deserve way more credit than they got.
Tab Drop List coming soon — one message per new tab, that's the whole deal.

Session Solos
For the Dann Huff fans building their own project guitar, I’ve got this loaded pickguard available at JTal Guitars. 🎸
Here’s what’s onboard:
• Seymour Duncan JB bridge humbucker
• Seymour Duncan STK-S2b Hot Stacks in the neck and middle positions. Yes, both are the bridge-model Hot Stacks.
• Individual series/parallel switching for all three pickups
• Demeter midboost with bypass
• Battery box and output jack included
$1,450.
Have questions about fitting it to your guitar? Send me a message before ordering and we’ll talk through the details.
Know someone working on a Huff-inspired build? Send this their way. I’d love to see this find its guitar.

For those asking about guitar tone on a lot of these videos, a ton of credit goes to @BigHairyGuitars and the Big Hair Guitars / Big Hairy Sound rig libraries he no doubt spent countless hours creating for THU Overloud. My tweaking is minimal to his tones to match up as close as possible to these legendary solos. Thanks Michael!!
