Hey Dave, just watched the Where The Wild Things Are DVD and you and Steve were phenomenal. I am curious how you record these videos? I am looking to enhance my quality as well.

[Joskun]

What an incredible lesson :)

[rogerthehat]

poker face lady ga ga

[n8tivguitar]

dave i have another question unrelated to your video but thought you would be the guy to ask...why does vai have the green tape over his neck pup?

[DAVEWEINER]

so the string doesnt get caught on the p-up.

[ChillAcoustic]

what was the thing you played at the very beginning?

[DAVEWEINER]

watch the end of the vid or info.

[n8tivguitar]

hey dave did you just learn how to play that song i have been trying for a few days now and cant get it to your speed.

[DAVEWEINER]

practice it to a metronome.

[b4rf3r]

HI dave, whats your personal opinion about Gary Moore? Just interested

[Taud]

What kind of finish is on that tele's neck?

[DAVEWEINER]

not sure, whatever the factory put on.

[powerzg33tar]

When does the new CD come out

[DAVEWEINER]

sometime this year.

[foxtrotalex]

poker face!

[caloss2]

I've never really touched on hybrid-picking, are you using a finger nail, or finger, or a a bit of both ?

Great Vid btw

peace

cal

[DAVEWEINER]

little bit of both, try nail or flesh to find the tone you like.

[mitsurugi009]

excellent hybrid picking vid!! I will learn hybrid picking by watching one of your videos. I just have to find it, hmm...

[mitsurugi009]

was there ever a lesson for naming made-up chords? I'm really stuck on this one chord, and naming it was harder than fingering the chord. Right now I put a temporary label on it, and maybe I can have a good name for it? I'm not too experienced, so any tips on naming chords that I happen to "make up" will be highly appreciated. thanks!

[Judoking96]

1:29 lol that sounds like that one riff in napoleon dynamite

[MrXen0]

Great riff! Also Pokerface is really, really nice..

Just a question; I cannot acces the ROTW section on your site for tabs anymore, probably because you're working on a new one. But how are we supposed to get tabs now? Because I'm going on vacation soon and would like to have a printed version of the tab to take with me for practice.

[DAVEWEINER]

watch the vid again and pay attn to the end.

[2cool4ausername123]

you cal that MODERATE

holy crap

[wildchild247]

dave what happened to the pdf files from the lessons?

[DAVEWEINER]

watch the vid again and pay attn to the end.

[n8tivguitar]

did this guy play with vai before?

[mangablade]

Yeah, plays still if im not mistaken.

[EricMaldonadoMusic]

From description:

"Hi, I'm Dave Weiner. I'm a Favored Nations recording artist, a G.I.T. graduate and have been playing in Steve Vai's band since 1999."

I think it's helpful to read the description lol :)

[SomethinWild]

He still does I believe.

Awesome guitar.

And cool lesson as always.

[ForbiddenHaze]

[telecastersRthebest]

[PrivateBuckwheat]

Wow I can't believe that was Pokerface... my sister listens to that song. It sounded so cool on the guitar.

[DAVEWEINER]

i dont care what anyone says, as simple as it is, that's a great melody/chord combo.

[sochai]

the riff sounds like country or cowboyish =D

good for exercising my picking hand!
