if anyone interested in this type of stuff, theres a FANTASTIC guitarist everyone should check out (even you Mr fastfinger if you havent already). his name is Daniele gottardo. Mr fastfinger and Daniele are my favorite soulful yet speedy guitar players. they need to jam.
Hmm. perhaps I should compose new Exploding Solo 2.0 now.To show off where I've gone with the guitar playing :) This solo was composed ugh... 2004 if I remember correctly. After that I've come up with an idea or two to go more original ways...
Could you plllleeeeease post the Backing track and tabulature for this on the MFF site? I've been hoping you will for ages now just like you did with Wax on-Wax off :(
Thanks! There's always work to do. Bends and vibratos may seem like basic techniques but I always have to work them. Both are very essential on shaping the tone.
@IbanezicepOpO uuh, sorry for the late answer. Yes, it's C Lydian mode basically. But the very beginning of the solo I kind of try to superimpose D mixolydian (the neughbor mode) but the backing bass note C twists everything to C lydian anyways :)
There are a lot of guitarists who are fast - so called shredders. But there are only few that are so imaginative. You could stand right next to Joe Satriani, or Steve Vai, and look at them as equal. Keep on rocking in the free world, man!

Hey Mr Fastfinger ! I was asking myself : what modes are you using in this track ? Maybe Lydian ? It sounds very original.
