Good Times Bad Times - cover song on guitar

[TheEdshemery]

Holy cow, that was awesome PDX!

[ebealienhead]

Awesome Dave ! One of my favs !

[Yackodelic]

AWESOME!!!! 5Hundred Stars!!

[SteveBDrums]

Back to have another listen Dave! One of my all time favorite tunes man. I loved to play this tune back in the day, and you do it so well. Rock on buddy! :)

[mynexia]

Dude...that is an amazing fat tone. I'd love to know your JSX settings. I got a combo and would like to dial it in!!

Super tone!

[PDXguitarfreak]

@mynexia - thanks! I'm using the Crunch channel. I don't recall exactly the settings , but usually they're in the following ranges: Resonance 5, Presence 6, Treble 6-7, Middle 4-5, Bass, 5-6. Also keep in mind that I have the JSX head with the JSX 4x12 cabinet. The cabinet has a specially voiced "speaker simulator" auxiliary output that allows you to go directly from the speaker to your PC. It's much differnt than a standard line out from an amp. That's really key to the sound here too. Rock on!

[Officialhiro8002096]

Amazing!!!

[prboyd]

Zep is my fav band Dave and this is a great cover. Hope you had a good Xmas mate and bring on Hogmany! :) Hic...

[drinkspecials]

Dave, one of the cool things about watching your videos is you remind me of some old songs i used to play, and inspire me to learn new ones as well. this was one of the first Led Zep songs I learned, Stairway of course was first. Keep on rockin in the New Year! \m/

[hippy4life4a]

Dave, you left me speechless!!

[fretworx]

Yeah, I need to get me one of those PDX shirts! :)

[MrIvanHalen]

What's the name of the tecnique at 0:17 ?

[drinkspecials]

@MrIvanHalen I hear people call it rolling harmonix. I first saw EVH do it in the Live Without a Net video in 1986

[rockfreak611]

@MrIvanHalen its a harmonic slide. evh started the trend of using it. listen to the end of the solo of somebody get me a doctor for reference but you mute a string with the side of your hand or pinky and move it down the string towards the nut while hammering on and pulling off notes with your fretting hand. very awesome trick.

[MrIvanHalen]

@rockfreak611 Thanks for the tip, dude.

[dannykaz777]

@MrIvanHalen pull-off sliding harmonics

[PDXguitarfreak]

@MrIvanHalen .. hey bro, I don't know if anyone answered you, so I'll try. Basically it's a trick I copped from Van Halen, where your left hand does open string pull offs, while your right hand gently glides over and down the string toward the left hand, causing multiple natural harmonics. It's a very simple but cool technique. I'm not sure what others call, but I'd probably call it "pull-off harmonics" or something like that.

[superhappyize]

nice sound, wah n ya everything... Lots o' Goodness.

[rockfreak611]

solos were spot on!

[misiek8881]

[jonn1070]

wow! - you have such a great groove & feel on this track imho.

Flashback: Thinking back about 20 years ago when I first ("listened" - not heard) Good Times Bad Times, lyrically speaking "now I've reached that age I've tried to do all those things the best I can" blew my head off. Thanks much for your awesome

interpretation / expression.

[FameGuitar77]

Awesome video!

PLEASE TRY INNOCENCE FADED BY DREAM THEATER!

Awesome outro solo... my next project!!!!!!!!

[tsmartin]

This reminds me of the cover of Out On The Tiles you made that this place took down. Maybe enough time has past that you can re-post that. It was kick ass. Have you ever thought of doing any Sabbath stuff ... and I don't mean Paranoid or Iron Man which has been covered to death.

TS

[HanValen]

Fantastic! (as always) - Merry X-Mas and Happy New Year!!

[sneakyuploader]

You are the Geetar master , one of my top 100 favs 4 sure, enjoy your life and be happy !! Peace ☼

[fredthejunkman]

Merry Christmas Dave! Thanks for posting some great videos!

[PixxyLixxx]

I've actually been playing this one a bit myself, lately. What a classic riff and solo! Love your tone on this one, Dave, it really nails the original vibe. And what is that effect, a phaser? Reminds me a bit of No Quarter. Once again you nail the solo...natch. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

[frwyguy]

Mostly good, Merry X-mas

[deracinated1]

nice/...merry...

[wez740]

Awesome as always mate! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

[steverid]

The 1st Zeppelin tune I ever fell in love with! It only got better from there! Awesome job! It still gives me shivers any time I hear this. You rock! Have a great Christmas & maybe Santa will bring you a new PRS ;) so you can FedEx me your old ones xD

[Pepper2Jason]

Well done all around.
