something i never understood could soemone pelase make it clear, when he plays over the chord progression can he just randomly play the e minor / blues scale or does he have to start on the same note the chord is progressign too .
Sounds more like an avenged sevenfold riff. The interesting part about slash is what he pulls from bb king.
You guys really need to start using tube amps. I think you guys have some solid videos, but all the electrics sound the same. If tour target audience is 12-15 year olds it's fine, but as players ears advance they're going to seek out tone, line 6 spiders have none of that. A fender pro jr or blues jr with a good overdrive pedal would improve your sound and probably open you guys up
@guitardude495 - hi, this backing track is part of our rock jam tracks plus series - you get 10 killer studio produced audio tracks and coincing PDF Ebook - check it out by clicking the link on our shop cart page to watch a video preview - go to next level guitar dotcom /shop
I think some people are too concerned with trying to be EXACTLY like Slash. The key, in my opinion, is to take this lesson and use it as a component in developing your own style. I've heard a lot of cover bands in my day, and no one is exactly like the original. The simple fact is that you can't BE someone else. David has some good pointers, now take that and go develop your own unique sound.
could you go into more detail, if their is, about your effects? like reverb, delay, comp etc.? man you make that thing sing. i'm more of a bass player, so yeah, i'm out of my league in here.
David, thanks for the lesson & download! One of my shortcomings just happens to be patience...go figure, it came just a few minutes after you're post! Kudos & continue what you're doing, 'cause it ROCKS!
@bulltastik - Hi sometimes it takes a few hours for the system to update - once you enter your address you will get a confirm email in less than a day - let us know if you dont get it by tomorrow. ROck on!
I really dislike the tone and the shred style he's using. Does anyone hear any Slash in that crap? I hear many ueseless notes, no feeling and awful vibrato... This doesn't make me want to learn anything.
Great video! your right about warmer tone by cutting the tone off....I preffer no tone knobs on my guitars...just a volume knob and control gain by turning it up...
i highly recommend the LINK BELOW, cause the E-Book you get there actually really IS fn amazing...helped me a lot. not to mention the great dvd´s they got to offer...get 'em! ;)
@LP4ever94 Didn't hurt me in the slightest, just found it odd. I know what you mean about this one. I quite like it but it's really weird. I bet it'd look good on stage though. I think it's one of those that on it's own looks like a turd but with stage lights it'd like cool and unique. Cloud-looking inlays on a Paul is pretty unique. :)
I'm so happy to get some straight forward stuff to help with my pub rock gig. As a jazz player, I've had an awful time before this getting my head around rock playing. Things are sure looking up!!!!
You cannot get Slash tone by rolling tone to 0 in every Les Paul. Slash's goldtop that he used to play with tone knob off had a feature not to lose sharpness completely if tone pot is rolled to 0.
Hate to tell you this man but slash doesn't bend a note up so that he has time to know what he wants to do... he bends notes because thats what he feels.
@marcussilvamgs - hi - nothing to be afraid of as that link in the text box allows you to get a free video lessons and free Ebook that I wrote that has over 21 scales diagrammed out as well as chord charts, fretboard diagrams, and other written lessons.
