It's all fine and well being able to imitate someone else's playing, Which without a shadow of a doubt, ben has nailed the whole malmsteen vibe. But Chappers has his own thing going, his own whole sound, and yet he can still cover every artist perfectly.
though i am highly jealous of bens amazing playing as he is about 3 years younger then me and has played 3 years less you cannot deny boys got talent, hes like yngwie malmsteen meets Hot Fuzz "yar-eee-yarr oh year yngwie oh yaree yar BLUES LICK" ..... i Cant Really Speak though im from Essex... everything i say sounds like an InMe song
Maybe it has something to do with Europe appreciation of music. Even when jazz came out, jazz musicians were more famous in Europe than America. Same with other types of music such as rock and blues.
Hi Chappers, like you're cool approach to everything and not taking yourself seriously or are you a flesh eating psycho behind closed doors...HA! Just kidding :)
Will you be demoing at the London Music Show this year? And if so, which stand and date? Shred and bring back the fluro pink Kramers of the 80s...
holy crap! i need to practice like now for the next four hours and again tomorrow and so on... haha ben ur freaking amazing i can only hope to be as good as you by the time im 17
@MrCwillies Well, basicly you could play anything in the key of E minor or G major. The riff was in E minor. There were some licks with the bluesy A# note, so that goes as well. Just don't play the box shape like you have the first finger always at 12th fret and you just play the Em scale up and down.
Instead, find the notes in Em and G scales and locate them on the fretboard. Then try using all "usable" frets in all strings. That will make solos more interesting. Btw, it was in E, not A
@L4stCaress thankyou for the reply, and i sort of understand, so g major goes with e minor does it? and he definitely says A minor the first jam they do at the beginning.
@MrCwillies I thought you meant the latter one. Anyways, the longer one is in E. Yes, They go together. Like A minor and C major. F# minor and A. Different note choices go well with different chord changes, so just try everything, even outside of those two scales.
Hell yea, You guys are just shreadin' the whole time!!
And Its always great to pick up new licks/approach from other guitarist, I can tell your enjoying yourselves there.. acutually damn jealous but keep ROCKIN!
@LastXzIII sounds like to me he is just blasting out random scales and licks he practiced to a metronome 12+ hours a day. i mean , i have my own musical tastes but in my perspective i don't hear any jaw dropping phrasing or anything. seems more like he is just letting his fingers do the work and not his musical talent.
I found these vids to be entertaining chappers. Its the first non review realted vid you put up in ages...not complaining mind, i love every vid you bless youtube with... i wanna know the BIG August news!
A great lead break in a crappy song doesn't alter the fact its a crappy song-Nick Bowcott (Grim Reaper, Marshall amps, Beginning Metal Rhythm Guitar).
You can order one through andertons. If you don't know how the ML2 lineup is constructed or how to get some of the specs you want (like a floyd rose) I'd suggest you go back and watch a few of the videos on this channel. It'll explain a few things.
That sounded lush. Yeah, he's proved his was technically accomplished in the video you introduced him, but I did have my doubts about what he held beyond that. Consider those doubts well and truly crushed. :)
Dude! That kid's technique is just as good as yours, Chappers! His phrasing isn't up to par with his chops yet, though, even if his note choice is great. I can see the difference in experience between you two, but not in his technique!
Hey Chappers, do you know if Andertons still have an Ml1. If so I'm going down Saturday to get one of these babies. Watching so many vids of them is killing me. I must have win pie :)
I WANT MY ELCTRIC BACK!!!! (if ur wondering the nuts broken and im saving for a new one that i shall be getting soon so no poin in getting it fixed considering it a cheap strat copy that i hate but i still want it to play insted of my acoustic :( )
@jacka94 theres one reason i wont and that beacause i would like to play the guitar im gonna buy before i buy it and i live in liverpool and im not to sure but andertons is the only place to buy them and thats in guildford the otherside of the country
@chearfcc im sure i cant there probly amazing guitars but i still need to find out weather it feels right for me i dont want to sepnd £350 or however much i will spend on a guitar i might not like ive put up with a crap guitar for 2 years o i just wanna make sure :)
Rob, you are a machine! You remind me of the video of Dime learning riffs with Kerry King. You see it once, try it, then dominate it like you wrote it! /bow
@RobChappers I can't believed you responded. I am not worthy! lol. Another question, will you becoming out with a chapman guitar maybe a little less shred-tastic, for the more mellow players such as myself?
stop playing fast its pretty boring as every guy player plays the same
