One of the great things that has come out of this unfortunate time of lockdown has been watching guitar heroes step up and reach out to fans stuck in their homes. Brian May has been busy doing it and now Johnny Marr recently asked people to leave their questions and requests for him via Instagram.
Some of the many responses were for Smiths songs and he's been responding in kind. You can check Marr and his signature Fender Jaguars obliging below, and if there's anything you've ever wanted to ask Marr or find out how he plays a guitar part – now's your chance!
So far we've had three Smiths song riffs from Marr you can watch below and we're looking forward to hearing what other requests he responds to in the coming weeks.
