i love all of your covers but where is the passion man?its rock and roll!all about feeling and letting youself being yourself,you seem so uptight,loosen it up man!
Thanks. I have huge passion for my music (you haven't seen me playing with my band!). I just choose not to thrash around in front of the camera when making videos for YouTube. A lot of people have thanked me for posting videos they can watch and learn from; I aim to please ;-)
I've been watching your covers for a long time and now I need to ask:
I want to buy a new guitar and want it to be worth the money I spend on.I really like your guitars,especially if they have that distortion switch on them.Which one would you suggest me?
No guitars have a "distortion switch". I change channel with a footswitch, and sometimes change guitar pickup with the pickup selector switch (although this guitar only has one pickup). Depends what you want, tone, music, looks, feel, what amp, trem or fixed bridge, etc, and of course your budget. My favourite "all-rounder" is actually my cheapest guitar, the Epiphone Les Paul but loaded with hot pickups. Favourite metal guitar is my Schecter, but I haven't used it on a video yet
@thedoosh101 Of course he's playing. You can even hear that his tone is a bit different to the actual track. And you can especially hear during the solo that he clearly is playing, It is an extremely tight, well done cover, that's all.
I almost bought one a couple of months ago; it was either that or the MH1000. But I played them both and a Schecter Hellraiser C1-FR; I ended up buying the Hellraiser!
i'm looking into buying the valveking 112 combo. i mainly play blues and rock'n'roll/classic rock and some metal here and there. do you think this could cover it?
Yes, it's a good budget valve amp with a wide range of sounds. It'll need an overdrive boost for the real heavy metal, but as you can see I did loads of rock/metal covers using this amp without any added effects.
Thanks. I love the Rhoads models. This one is a Jackson Kevin Bond Signature Rhoads, it cost USD1000 a few years ago, I imported it in to the UK. It's no longer in production now.
@DrSlackBladder Yeah... me too... The first guitar lessons I took were classical... so now I play a standard-shaped guitar (strat style) on my left leg...
Well I don't hav the RR3 anymore; currently I have this Jackson Kevin Bond Rhoads, a Jackson RR5 Rhoads and an Epiphone Les Paul Vintage Custom. But I'm on the hunt for my next one now! Thanks.
No, it's standard scale length, etc, which is actually longer than your typical Gibson or ESP. It's just an illusion created by the body shape, with most of it it being behind my right arm or between my legs!
It can't be wrong, it's MY COVER, i.e. my version. Actually the main solo is pretty much spot on copmpared to the original; the second solo (as I explained in the notes) is improvised. To answer your question, I make these videos because I enjoy it.
@DrSlackBladder what scales/arppegios do u recommend i use to improvise the solo? in my opinion, improvised solos are a bit more fun than learning the real ones (in some cases) so when i come to cover this song, im just gonna improvise. great cover to man!!!
@iamgreatish yep!!!! do you play, if you dont im going to recommend playing guitar!!! its soooooo fun, it cost a bit, but once you have good stuff (NEVER buy cheap shit) ur fine!!!
@DowntownTB13 No i'm a drummer. I tried playing guitar didn't like it that much, I wanna start again though. But Djing and buying that kit is taking over!
@iamgreatish here's one peice of advice: DONT BUY THE STARTER KIT, it sucks really bad!!!!! DONT GET IT, buy everything seperate, it will be more expensive, but it will save you money in the long run, the kit only lasted me 3 months before stuff started to fuck up, just please dont get it!!!!!!
I love playing this song, I usually play it for my mates when they're all at my house whilst they sing (badly) I usually get up and do Angus Young impressions haha!
you should jump around man...cannot imagine angus ever playing sitting down on a sofa and with a guitar like that...get a gibson, thats a rock n roll guitar. by the way, you´re playing is VERY GOOD. great stuff.
Thanks. This one's a Jackson Kevin Bond Signature Rhoads, on the wall is a Jackson RR3 Rhoads. They are not smal in terms of all hardware and neck dimensions, but the shape has less wood than a conventional shape. I also have a Jackson RR5 Rhoads; see it in my other covers!
@jbsnightrain i agree that it was good btw but just to point out, half of the last solo was not in the original and he played it differently. probably because he dont have enough frets cus u need 24. my les paul dont even have tht many decent frets. (playable ones)
