[Pablo113]

VERY COOL!!!!!

[jezza10181]

quite a complex song this, i've always thought.

[fandyboy]

Nice sound, notes are wrong tho.

[Buckleyguitar]

Oh, and please do 'until the end of the world'.

[Buckleyguitar]

Can you please do more videos with the explorer, it really is beautiful. Your also a great player.

[Nigelxman]

Fantastic tone dude!! You nailed this perfectly.

[U2935]

Yes there is but i think its a 56 reissue but its made by epiphone its around 500 bucks Us dollors lol but im thinking of getting it fir christmas

[atrxroller]

question: is that a 76 reissue explorer? and if no or yes where can i get one ? thanks!

[u2john316]

@atrxroller This is a 2007 Gibson Explorer model I purchased second hand about a year ago. Swapped out the stock pups.

[atrxroller]

@u2john316 well thats great cause it sounds exactly like the edge's 76 explorer! thanks anyway :)

[mamothcar1]

Awesome - great job - one of my favorite songs from that album.

[mfparana]

cara você é muito bom, até parace o Edge, até no jeito de tocar e dançar

[anstratdubh1979]

Good job, as usual. U2John316's clips are among the best on the web. I agree with the one critique that the timing could be a bit better.

Are you using any earpieces or headphones to monitor the track? if not, that would be my recommendation.

Tones are good. As is usual with your work. Cheers!

[u2john316]

@anstratdubh1979 Thanks Jeffrey. I record the audio and video separately from the track but I listen to the track using earpieces. I then put them all back together by alignment.

[guitaristDEA]

Korina explorer?

[guitaristDEA]

Korina explorer??

[silverjaguaar]

Great work - This reminds me of my teenage years when the edge's haunting guitar licks were constantly on my stereo, Cheers Lee

[genericxanex]

Dude - you killed it! Bono wouldn't know the difference if you were playing behind him!

[taurus1269]

what's that little foot board you have hiding behind the amp?

[u2john316]

@taurus1269 It's not a foot board. It is my boss multi-track recording unit.

[danielbrown1998]

@u2john316 Hey, whare do you get your tabs. I can't find any that sound like your cover when i play it

[mattylad68]

You nailed it. Fantastic job mate!

[atrxroller]

i want an explorer so bad but i got a stratocaster deluxe intead, hopefully ill get one soon

[HelterSkelterSOR]

OI DON"T U PEOPLE TALK SHIT ABOUT U2JOHN316 HE IS ONE OF THE BEST U2 COVERISTS I'VE HEARD

[firebar269]

@HelterSkelterSOR

Amen to that!

[mikeybyamr6]

i think your cover of this song is great.The funny thing is i did a cover of u2's into the heart which i admit is shit but toolsnfire critised me as well and i totally agree with you in the fact that he should upload a video to see how good he is before he critises others.If its any consolation i think his just a sad edge wanna be that spends his days trawlling you tube slagging off anyone that covers a u2 song as he doesnt have the talent or the ability to do it himself.keep on playing.

[u2john316]

The pickups I use in this 2007 Explorer are Tarbacks from a 70's Gibson SG.

[Sammatthew1975]

@u2john316 I have to say that was one of the more impressive Edge renditions on here. Love the sound you got with your set up and your playing has all the feel of a genuine fan. Truly impressed and looking forward to watching your other stuff.

[chanelock01]

Hey u2john,fantastic tone,

fantastic guitaring, John i have just purchased a epiphone explorer i want these pickups in mine, can you please tell me what you have in yours, would really appreciate u2john

Thanks

[theedge269]

What pups did you put in? I'm using the originals on a 1991 version and they're just a great pile of mud & cotton wool.

[biodot88]

Great tone. To get the vibe back in the day i used to practice the live New Years day fast strumming he would do. That will help loosen you up : )

[muggle911]

Excellent, I love this version. If you have the Irving Plaza version that is amazing also. Can you tell me what gauge and brand of strings you prefer on your humbucker guitars? Thx

[piemalicho]

waow , so great

[AaronOwenSmith]

im going to be tough on you Jerry, not because you suck but because you are really good, TONE 9.9 yes very close well done.

Timing is off, YOU CAN do better than this man!, feel the music. you are hitting a lot of the riffs late, 200-300mls. Solo YES, that's it, you are feeling it, main riff needs more sustain and notes need to flow in to each other,

Only saying this because you can improve. Wish I could play half as well as you can btw. Keep it up, always love you videos. Thanks

[u2john316]

@AaronOwenSmith Hi Aaron always value your comments. I'm wondering if it's more the fact that there is a contrast between the broken/discontinuous riffs through the song (as it is written) and then the more full-on continuous solo? I'm happy enough with it though but I do value your say on it Aaron. Thanks.

[garbeaj]

Sounds amazing! Is that a reissue Memory Man? I understand Analogman does a mod on the reissues to supposedly make them sound more like the originals. I have an original and it died. I had to have a guy spend six months trying to rewire it. The components were terrible, but they sure sounded great. My unit doesn't really sound the same anymore...I think the unit Edge is using in It Might Get Loud is one of these Analogman modified reissues?

[MOFO270]

Please give me your tabs

[TubePowered]

Fantastic! BTW, what p'ups did you throw in?

[drneme]

Congratulations, dude!!!

Any chance of geting a great tune recording without a mic?

[poule1975]

More viseos please, Awesome

[joewillant]

not bad, not bad at all! nice guitar.

[cookiemon70]

Really cool clip ...... Is that a stock '10 speaker?

[DSCH4]

Wow! Great job!

[digdugdigdugdigdug]

Is that the Edge oh wait its John again :-) Nice job as always thanks for the share!!! 

[liam421]

Great tone and playing as usual

[eddy621]

It's crazy how similar the tone is with almost nothing. Great job!

[TheAstroVox]

Gibson Explorer ´76...?

[u2john316]

@TheAstroVox no it's a 2007 model I bought cheap second hand recently. Swapped out the stock pups.

[olekcj111]

fucking amazing!

[logis2006]

Nice!!!

[muggle911]

bravo!

[slacjack]

his guitar matches his carpet

[baldyman123]

sounds great John..Is there any delay at all on that?

[danakerman]

@baldyman123 can't you hear it???

[ebouwman034]

@danakerman Ya i thought it was fairly obvious as well....

But i guess it almost sounds like a crapload of reverb, almost.

[u2john316]

@baldyman123 there's a short delay on the Memory Man. You can hear it esp on the harmonics.

[a1234567837]

nice tone!!!!!!!

[DarkRising12]

nice tone :O
