  • 1 person still didn't get it.

  • 1 FUCKING DISLIKE?

  • @SalomonLP Yeah, right?!! Who could dislike this?!

  • The different what!!!!

  • Yo me kede desde la mna haciendo cover con la guitarra

    y el bajo al frente de la compu y todo el quipo¡¡!!!

    nosee vos¡¡!!!

    XD

  • No solo mi profesor sino uçn idolo jeje

    Voy a ver este video todos los dias y sacar ese tema como sea jeje

  • Well what the fuck.. I wanted to learn about the "cheat note" LOL

  • What is that green stomp box that he uses for the tremolo sound during the intro?

  • can you PLEASE message me the names of all the pedalls?? i beg you

  • they always use the same tuning do they?

  • wtf kind of tuning is that lmfao

  • @iHacksorzz a whole step down from standard

  • @iskim86 what if u have a six string acoustic and wanna play this stuff lol

  • @iHacksorzz tune down. do you even play guitar?

  • @iskim86 yeah i do, and i get the whole step down, but they play seven strings, so i mean how important is the 7th string for their songs? like im guessing its whole step down on all 7 strings to get the low sound.

  • @iHacksorzz yes. 7-strings are tuned BEADGBE. tune down a whole step to get to ADGCFAD. on a 6-string, it's EADGBE down to DGCFAD if you go down a whole step. but if you want to go down to A, you'd have to tune down seven half-steps down to ADGCEA. this way you can play all the low notes but you won't be playing the five high notes you can play on a 7-string. and of course, you'd need thick strings to compensate for the loss of string tension. korn songs depend on the 7th string 100%.

  • lol i have the same guitar except im a lefty

  • anyone know what reverb he uses? im assumimg electro harmonix

  • @18266609 Holy Grail from Electro Harmonix. I have it too and it's a nice cheap simple reverb, try it ;)

  • @Dedalusalley Thanks for the post, and yeah im planning on picking one up soon, ehx makes some awesome pedals.

  • Do things

  • Got Head?

  • Munkey>Hendrix

  • What pedals use munky in this video?

  • i start to headbang when it comes to the main riff

  • captain jack sparrow

  • @Dimitri759 Je l'ai toujours dit ^^

  • great lesson still cant understand why munky doesent use a midi conrtoller to controll his fx pedals

  • He looks like a damn pirate. That's amazing. xD

  • Comment removed

  • damn need a 7 string guitar ^^

  • @WaldebeatZ I play it on 6 string.....tuning:ADGFAD

  • @KimiKoilu what string gauge you use for it ?? i even use 12-60 for only drop c xd

  • @WaldebeatZ thick is better but 12 is very good for this... i think

  • @KimiKoilu i guess it would be pretty less tension for me .... what guitar you got ?

  • @WaldebeatZ I've fuckin' stratocaster

  • Falling Away From Me is a Easy note, on the intro, 1,2,3 verse. i alway pratice on the note, everytime? it's fun, & easy.... it's the same note on the verse, over, & over. Over & over. Ok... i'm pratice on the chorse now.

  • Nu-Metal IS a solo ..... <3

  • Most recognizable КδЯᴨ song for me with the "Bumblebee sound" is A.D.I.D.A.S.

  • Comment removed

  • He looks tired in this vid :p I love him haha. Seems like a really nice guy.

  • that was one of the best lessons ive ever had, im serious, every guitar teacher ive had didnt play what i wanted to, they were teaching me crappy rocknroll songs like the beatles or acdc LAME!

    so thanks munky, finnally a lesson which is relevant to me and my taste, nu metal, i love other metal but nu metal really fires me even tho its pretty much dead now..

  • @SwirlyBrokenHearts how I understand you, about guitar teachers lol ;)

  • @SwirlyBrokenHearts AC/DC is great man!

  • @SwirlyBrokenHearts I can understand your frustration at not playing what you want to play but please don't refer to bands like the beatles as lame or crap because without them korn wouldn't have existed so have some respect please.

  • @SwirlyBrokenHearts Beatles and AC/DC crappy rock n roll songs? what the fuck is this world coming to.

  • @SwirlyBrokenHearts Maybe you don't like the Beatles or ACDC, but don't say it's crappy rock'n'roll. Without them, Korn would never exists...

  • @MushFX1337 i meant i dont mind acdc or the beatles, but i dont want to be taught their songs, i mean do you play guitar? ever payed for a lesson? guitar teachers are bias. hey if it wasnt for this video i still would'nt know and not every band is influenced by older music, if the beatles or acdc didnt exist it would be someone else. if korn didnt exist then this video wouldnt, it goes either way

  • @SwirlyBrokenHearts Actually, I've been playing guitar for twelve years now, and I've payed lessons with a private teacher for 7 years. And I can affirm that the Beatles, the Rolling stones, AC/DC (not to mention them all) have influenced all the music you ear every day. I don't mean that KoRn has been directly influenced by them, but indirectly yes. Even them could tell you that. Last month I spoke with the guitaris from Textures and he told me that his inspiration came from The White Album...

  • @MushFX1337 interesting and thanks for the insight, tho in my first post was not about influence although i am aware many rock/metal bands sight the beatles or the smiths or something like that, you will often hear people draw a link between easy equals crap when it comes to nu metal, when i told my teacher i wanted to learn slipknot songs he acted a douchebag about it, instead gave me "hall of the mountain king" to learn. its not about influence its about existing style

  • @MushFX1337 if ever i choose a particular bands song to cover, it's not necessary for me to know about the past, i can if i want ..but don't have to. for me korn is a HUGE influence and i dont really care for the beatles, acdc etc but i don't dislike those bands, they just don't interest me "as much as" korn, hope that makes sense, sorry if it sounds like im hating because im not, everyone is different you know? :) thankyou for your time so far :)

  • @SwirlyBrokenHearts Yeah it makes sense to me, actually I don't really like Beatles, but I see their influence everywhere... I'm not telling that you Have to love these bands, I'm just mad at people that wear t-shirts with the Rolling Stones mouth and saying it's old shit... But obviously you're not that type of people.

  • @SwirlyBrokenHearts well when you learn acdc and old shit you learn how to PLAY the guitar and move around the fucking fretboard. these guys learned it so its needed to be a real guitarist and not just a prick with an axe

  • @machinegunmike95 no man. its about learning what you WANT to learn. trust me guitar teachers are just corrupt douchebags. my uncle has "25 years" experience and what he plays p***es me off...........................­..

  • He seems so depressed for some reason

  • who can tell me what his pedals are :$

  • @eXtremeHellFire im pretty sure he uses an ibanez 7th heaven, but i dont know about any others

  • Wow a guitar lesson that actually teaches you something!!

  • he looks like damian marley XD

  • its so cute how he can't remember/explain some stuff lol xD oh munky how i love u! :D

  • its so cute how he can't remember/explain some stuff lol xD oh munky how i love u! :D

  • haha i am a huge KoRn fan, no im an epic! KoRn fan, but KoRn songs are soo miserably easy to play, so its funny to see that he teaches 3 super simple riffs in 10 minutes :D

  • i don't think munky's caught on that his songs aren't that hard to play. i mean sure, it sounds good, but it's kinda irritating how slowly he teaches everything.

  • what is his dirty pedal

  • @eXtremeHellFire ive always heard he used digitech metal master but thats not it in the video

  • @eXtremeHellFire its jus the distortion on what ever amp he uses no distortion pedal

  • @drk6969: actually, munky's been using distortion pedals most of his career, most regularly a big muff.

  • Korn music is simplier then punk rock

    effects makes it sounds  more complicated hehehe

  • @buokopter hmmmmmmmm simplier is that even a word u fuckin retard

  • It looks like he's a dubbed mexicano.

    THAT'S how fucked the syncing is.

  • im poor and i have a classical guitar scholarship I love music its the only reason why i got better not how much money i have i just wish people would play and not worry about money

  • lol why does he not get a midi board or something. hitting three pedals when switching your sounds isnt apropriate for a million record selling guitar player :D

  • 0 dislikes!!!! hell ye =)

  • Munky is the shit

  • I just looked at the site

    The Ibanez k7 is similair to Ibanez RG 7

    Only the k7 is a signature, firtst they played on the RG 7

  • u.u i'm poor and i want a fuking k-7 like head k-7 that he used 2000 to 2004

  • Comment removed

  • to play this song you need effect 1 2 3 94 and 6 GOOD LUCK CHEAP BASTARDS IM ONLY BETTER BECAUSE IM RICH

  • @chopperharris100 haha you are funny man

  • what was the guitars that Head and Munky used. they both had different ones. what were the model names?

  • Munky and Head use Ibanez K7/ Ibanez APEX. In this video he uses Ibanez K7 black. Black Ibanez K7 can not buy. Only blue or silver.

  • @issues432

    You can buy them

    A store here in Holland called Feedback in Rotterdam sell them

  • @issues432 You can buy an Blue and paint it

  • @issues432 that's the problem for me, I want the black K7 but can only get grey or blue so I got the gray one. I still want that black one.

  • @Darkfirelover get it custom painted :D it will cost a bit of money but worth it

  • @issues432 they sell them at my music shop

  • @issues432 Black version is Epic kind  of tresure ! love that.

  • @XxxdethhammerxxX A little more into. they started on ibanez universes. they both had a uv7pwh and munky also had a uv7bk and an s5407 with a uv7bk neck (in blind vid and ibanez 7th heaven vid over there ------->). then they went to rg7420's and rg7620's. then they got the K7's and munky usually used the prototype version (and the 1 K14 on alone i break). then they had custom RG7's in the vid for did my time. head left and munky got the apex1 (doesnt play the apex2) and custom a rg7 prestige.

  • @XxxdethhammerxxX im good with guitars (: and the rg7 prestige can be seen in SOME live vids and in the oildale vid. anda few times he used a custom art 7 string. and a couple times he used the buckethead signature les paul. and i just noticed that you only asked about the k7's so this whole reply was useless. well, at least you got a little guitar knowladge out of it

  • Korn does love that bumble bee sound.

  • i met him!

  • Does anyone know what pickups he uses? Anyone at all?

  • Name - DiMarzio® PAF-7

    Model No -DP759

  • @issues432 Thanks man. This is for bridge right?

  • @FRr3AkOnALEaSh Yes, bridge.

  • who gives a fuck who's the best ?

    its about making good music . and Korn does that . =)

  • he has to be jack sparrow's relative hahahaha this lesson rocks!!!!!!! ROCK ON KORN!!!!

  • munky seems a little sad or empty but i could be wrong or maybe hes upset how everyone is going there own ways but i hope the band never dies but ill always be a korn fan

  • would it make more sense to turn off the Reverb, then the Tremolo, and then the pickup selecter, and THEN the distortion, so that you dont get all that reverb with the distortion???

  • He's a 7 string god!:D

  • @issues432 Do you know anything about guitar ? It's sad but, since Head is gone from korn, they lack a lot of power in guitar riffs. Playing guitar for 25 years doesn't mean much. I play guitar for 7 seven years and my level is way above this guy. Maybe he takes too much drugs or I don't know. I'm not hating here. I just prefer the old korn. they were a good duo with good riffs back in the days you know. I love korn.

  • @cdmaelstrom Head is better for me, but you can not say that Munky is not a good guitarist . I play guitar at 8 years. Korn, Metallica and other crap, easy for me. But look at one thing, what is most important. Experience!!!! Munky has a lot more experience than you and I together. That's why I can not say that I am playing better than him, because it is simply impossible. I was at a concert by Korn and believe me, then you see him, then I realized that I'm not even close to Munky.

  • @issues432 yeah I can agree with you that he has better show skills than me since he played in front of thousands many many times. He's a great entertainer

  • @cdmaelstrom a great entertainer? lol.. he's everything but a monkey

  • @cdmaelstrom , i actually don't think your guitarr skills are better. if you do some research you will find out that he plays the way he does because they want to and they want that sound.

  • @cdmaelstrom the 'old'' Korn is gone! get over it - the new Korn is here to stay!

  • I love korns music but I would hate to go to a concert of theirs. I'd probly shit my pants

  • I don't know why these guys get so much grief for not being musical virtuosos?

    It's like the nay sayers fail to see how unique the guitarist in korn are, their songs have some truly bizarre chord arrangements, structures & just downright odd timbres.

  • its not about how fucking fast u can play or whatever. its about the music you create

  • I consider munky to be one of the best ever.. He'd be in the top 100 at least.. A self taught musician making it HUGE with a band and getting such a massive fan base? That's unheard of.. Is he still trying to learn proper music? Seems like he's making an effort to.

  • I bet he couldnt throw down a lead. He is just a riff player..

  • Here is the one question i have for this DVD which i happen to own. In my opion its not accurate and thats completely okay. Im a huge korn freak and Love pedal effects probably just as much as James Munky Shaffer. That effect in this "DEMO" is not at all the effect on the record at all. Its more of the Sound of the UV-1 Dunlop Uni-vide set at a Fast rate on the Vibe setting. Its also a Moderate Delay tempo added on the of the effect.

  • @ToOlOGT22 not that good? no point in even getting into it with you. your ignorance transcends

  • @ToOlOGT22 who cares if he is self taughtt?, and if he isnt that good why is he makeing so much money?? every one has there own style

  • munky you r the man saw you live in DULUTH in May '09 COME BACK MAN!!!!

  • did munky have his signature ibanez at thiss point or did he get it later?

  • Maybe Munky isn't one of the best technical players in the world, but guess what, he doesn't care ! His style is what defines Munky, and Korn, and you definitely have to take into account the endurance required to play live etc. This guy has so much character, and his style proves you don't need to be playing blistering solos to gain success. Munky is an amazing guitarist !

  • lol korn is the worst excuse for a band ever !!

  • I think munkey is great. For those who have no idea what he has done for the band, then better do a research!

  • What is the name of the guitar technique he uses at: 8:50...?

    Do I need some equipment to make it?

    Can someone explain that last part?

  • What is the name of the guitar technique he uses at: 8:40...?

    Do I need some equipment to make it?

    Can someone explain that last part?

  • @issues432 yeah, i can play some pretty fast stuff, self taught. i never thought about it, but he made a good point. his left hand looks like mine when i play.

  • @ToOlOGT22 let me explain munky is father of 21s most of nu or metalcore bands ... he & head created absolutely new wave sound & new wave music ... & hate "programmed" gutarists TECHNIQUE fuck it technique can learn even a dog or monkey guitar player or any player at first must be individual in playning style & song writing.... not TECHNIQUE ... i can write it in any single guitar video or other instrument ..

  • @MA4VA & any good guitar player can say the same.... 90% of youtube plays solos (nothing new) 1000 times played solos & what .. they are bunch of assholes who says " i`m a badass" but the fact is .... they are good in technique cuz they can NOT write song & they just training in arpegios , sweep ...etc. in guitar this is just 2x2 & you can learn even to a dog that 2x2=4 .... thats fact

  • @ToOlOGT22 dude. come on, was the guitarist from the ofsspring that good? I do't think so, but you don't have to be steve fucking vai to play good and sound good... and munky is so damn charismatic that he can also be not so good and also be cool... don't really care what you say man... he's good... and if you look at him live... he's playing, jumping, going up and down and playing, go ahead and do that...

  • @issues432 well someone can be famous but alot of people may think they arent too good. playing the master of puppets solo after 8 years isnt a big deal i learned the whole song including the main solo, but not the first solo, in 2 days with like 5 years of guitar playing.

  • what pedals are those that he uses throughout the song? as in what brand/model

  • does he have 7 strings??

  • why does the volume mute when he stops talking? sounds like its glitching

  • Gotta Love The Bumblebee Sound=D

  • his solo is amzing i say its deffo one of the best solos i've ever heard!!! just coz you dont used something alot doesn't mean you shouldn't learn it! everything you learn will just get you better at what you're learning!!!

  • i haven t heard a solo in korn songs because their genre doesn t require solos but munky is soooooo amazing

  • @TheMetalHead554 Listen to Haze, the song they did for the video by the same name, its kind of like a random shred topped off with effects but it sounds awesome.

  • munky is an amazing guitarist. if you havn't heard his solo then dont fucking talk you fucking queers!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Kornymofoify is right, have you heard the mine solo, he is a god!

  • is mine a korn song? or what song is the solo in?

  • Man*

  • Seriously I really love all custom Ibanez seven-string guitars so fucking far not only because of its heavy sound but also and as a result because of the way it is meant to be played!.

  • old mexican man, hell yeah

  • wel..it was munky and head who taught wes to play..coz he was shit..and still is after them giving him some tips...thats why biz limpkit are deader than dead..their the rock version of whitney housten

  • I'm a huge fan of KoRn music, but not a munky fan as a guitarist. I don't want you to thumbs me down, I just think head is better. and that munky is not a very good guitarist. I prefer wes borland.

  • @cdmaelstrom you don't have to be a good guitarist to be famous... you just have to be able to come up with some good songs....

  • @cdmaelstrom

    I love all 3, but Wes is number 1 for me.

  • @cdmaelstrom So Munky isn't up your alley. That's cool and I won't argue that. To say the guy isn't a good guitarist is something else all together and I'd have to disagree strongly.

  • is he tired, drunk or just tired in these?

  • You think by now Munky would get a bradshaw switching system to take care all of the extra tap dancing.

  • they dont use tremolo in the recording

  • In my opinion the clean sound in this clip sounds really wrong. Actually they use a Dunlop Uni Vibe to get the original intro sound. Don't understand why Munky is talking about a tremolo?!?

  • Munky's the best guitarist out there, along with Steve Vai, except for the solos but that's ok

  • hey dont 4get head... heads kick ass

  • black metal supremacy!!!! black metal is superior!!!

  • @newoaklandlocal that's true..

  • lol he has fat fingers!

  • lol, your mother has a fat ass, laugh now bitch, lolololololololol

  • shut up. Munky is the second best guitarist out there, next to Brain Head Welch. David, Fieldy and John will kick your ass faggot.

  • @RockersTakingOver aha, so you never heard someone who REALLY can play that instrument

  • what pedals he's using???

  • I really like Munky's style, he's probably high there too, but he's the best metal guitarist ever!!

  • @MrHeadlocks Oh yes they are! You fucking dyslexia retard... They are the leaders of Nü-metal!! And if you can't see the "METEL" as you call it, in the genre "Nü-metal", you are just as retarded as you seem to be.. Peace, prick..

  • Munki is the coolest nu metal guitarist ever! No questions asked!! XD

  • i think head is!

  • lol fair point, fair point =)
