Good job, bro!

I'm not a guitar guy, but aren't guitars supposed to have pickups?

The little rectangle thing under the part of the string where you strum.

(Just making sure I get it right. XD )

[tertnesen]

@YoyoingPony That is correct ;) This guitar is a "Line6 Variax 700" google it ;) it is a modelling guitar and the pickups are in the bridge where the strings are directly attached...

[YoyoingPony]

@tertnesen Ah, gotcha. ;) Thank you!

And keep on rockin'!

@tertnesen

Piezzo pick ups?



[tertnesen]

@KreatorOfDeath1985 Yes, it is a line6 variax 700, i tmodels 25 different guitars, in this case an old les paul... google variax ;)

[KreatorOfDeath1985]

@tertnesen Sound better than i thought piezo pick ups could sound

usually its for getting an acoustic sound out of your guitar

[tertnesen]

@KreatorOfDeath1985 the acoustic guitars on this is also awesome, do a search here on youtube for variax demo :)

[Blooddrunk10]

thumbs up! this is so great cover, man!

[SeanAsheOfficial]

Awesome job man, I just uploaded a cover of this myself, check it if you have the time. again great job! thumbs up

[tertnesen]

@SeanAsheOfficial Thanks man, checked your version, it's really good :)

[klanganke]

hey do you have tabs for this??

[tertnesen]

@klanganke Hey, I got them off the net (google for it, I use guitarpro when possible) ... but I think most of them contained smaller errors of some sort, so I did alot by ear...

[cynder167]

Like a boss.

[espina961]

W0W!

[JakeyA7X]

Wheres the pickups??

[tertnesen]

@JakeyA7X line6.com/variax/

(in the bridge)

[AILBenihime]

Great cover, you just made me set my new goal

[crazyedd123]

is that a synth guitar?

nice cover btw, i still find it funny how nobody's managed to do the rhythm of the chord part porperly :S

[tertnesen]

@crazyedd123 Thanks :)

Not a synth guitar, but a modelling guitar, do a google for "line6 variax 700 guitar" :)

damn, I did't get the chord part right? :/ let's call it artistic freedom then ;p

[gokumexisono]

nice guitar 

[theamazingzivmaster]

Nice cover mate. You nailed the solo ^^ It kinda looks like your stickin' the finger at 2:17 lol. :p

[tertnesen]

@theamazingzivmaster haha, yes indeed, certain chords make me do that ;p "flipping the bird" not really what you wanna do towards an audience ;) (luckilly I am no longer an active player, only enjoying the guitar at the home office :) )

[MrMetalMayhem]

Great cover \m/ And that guitar tone is very good

Congrats

[tertnesen]

@MrMetalMayhem Thank you :)

[pedrorox22]

I don't like your guitar...

[tertnesen]

@pedrorox22 Well, you don't have to ;)

[Breakx22]

no pick ups waaaaaaaaaaaaaa?

[tertnesen]

@Breakx22 check: line6.com/variax/

The pickup is the bridge, do yourself a favor and read the above link ;)

[superstriker00]

What guitar is that? And why is there a gloriuous absence of pickups?

[tertnesen]

@superstriker00 The Line6 Variax guitar have no pickups, it's in the bridge :)

Check line6.com/variax/

[superstriker00]

@tertnesen How does that work?

[tertnesen]

@superstriker00 It uses a piezo electric mic in the bridge and a onboard computer models the guitar type you want, in all essence it is like 25 different guitars in one, from gibson, fender strats to banjo and 12 string accoustic guitars :) do a search right here for "variax demo" and you will get it shown and explained :) it is a very cool guitar to use ... Variax 700 is the one I have.

[tertnesen]

@tertnesen This guy does a pretty good job demonstrating a Variax 700 and some of it's capabilities:

[superstriker00]

@tertnesen This sounds like something I'd be interested in, how much do they cost?

[tertnesen]

@superstriker00 Don't remember, but if you are in the USA they are a helluwa lot cheaper then here in Norway I think ;)

[superstriker00]

@tertnesen Well, let me ask you this, then. I am only 14, I've only been playing for 2 years, but I do have a band, and we do play shows, just so you take me seriously here, I am actually a fairly skilled guitarist for my time playing. I want a guitar that can be used for everything from punk, to reggae, to metal, to prog, and to everything inbetween. Is this guitar a good investment for what I want?

[tertnesen]

@superstriker00 Indeed it would be a good investment for that.. :)

The Variax 300 is the cheapest one, but it has the exact same electronics and sounds as the 700. I recommend you google for line6 variax and also search for it here on youtube, I am sure you will be amazed by it's capabilities :)

[superstriker00]

@tertnesen Thank you so much for your help!

[SlashWorshipper1993]

Beautiful :)

[zeus2196]

great cover man!

[DLOWSHIT]

About time i see some rush :)

[lifesonrushyyz]

I like it!

[superstriker00]

@lifesonrushyyz That's a toggle, but I see no pickups so it confuses me.

[RushRulesRock]

nice cover, i like the guitar tone

[rula42]

what is that small switch on ur variax? i have a 500, but i never saw a switch like that on a 700

otherwise: great playin!
