The metronome in the beginning is part of the backing track. The symphonic part that starts at 1.37 was so good that I tolerated the metronome. It plays a little faster than the original album version which is what I was going for. I had to speed it up a bit for the intro.
your playing it right. your sound is just very.... intresting.... uhmm im to poor to afford a camera lol all my money goes to guitar stuff. but u can ask any of my friends. ive been playing guitar for a LONG time. trust me. i went over bored with effects at one time. Its not a succesful sound really....
anyways no worrys you play great but the sound just is wayyyyyyyy bad. ya know? its like putting yngwie malmsteen on an out of tune squier with out an amp. it sounds bad but he still plays great
I guess your entitled to your opinion.Funny how these comments always come from someone who has nothing posted to back up their expert opinion. I'll look forward to your video showing me the "right" way to play this song.
Personally, I think you could have eased up on the phaser. The beauty of the song and the tuning is that it needs no effects, just maybe a little slapback for good measure.
On the playing side, my only crit is that you need to lighten up a little.
As far as your playing, my only crit is that you could have been a little less metronomic. Play it from the soul, play it loose.
So are you doing the dgcgcd tuning? There's a lot of conflicting information out there - but what oyu are playing and what JImmy Page seems to be playing in the "unplugged" outtake look the same so I am guessing you have it correct. Good job by the way!
bad ass man, i had it playin in the background and went to itunes to press pause because i thought i was listening to the original. nice use of effects too.
When I heard that tremlo effect I said to myself"Jaasus,here we go again,I`ve heard that song with fuzz and every other effect.Why can`t people just play it on accoustic as it is done by the Great One".But I must say you practically aced it.The strings in the B/G is a nice touch.I wonder how that song came about?The tuning,the bridges and that ending.....Wow...a Masterpiece....Good job,pal.....
Thanks for checking out my video.The tuning from low to high is D G C G C D like the album version.I arranged the two guitar parts together for one guitar.I use Powertab Editor 1.7, a FREE guitar program that plays guitar tab out loud while you follow it on the screen!You can get this song & the program free. Just google tabopolis
WOW ! That was so Original,If I would not have seen you I wouls thought that Jimmy Page was Playin Man!Thanks,Sincerely,Another Mesician,who likes Good Music!rainbowRon6464,Airon,TheGeminiWitch~~~|~~~ ! Blessed Be!
Such a pretty cover, love the tone! So original! Keep up the great work!!!! I love this song, it's my fave from Led Zeppelin, hell of all time and you did a great cover compared to some of those I've seen
Very cool, you played the whole song. I've never heard the backing track before. Very cool to jam with. Sounds like you used a leslie and flanger effect. Hope to hear more.
YES! thanks for posting i LOVE this song

but ive noticed you look at your left hand a lot when your playing. my guitar teacher when i first started, said that it was a horrible thing to do
personally.. i think it was amazing.
i have to play this song at my uncles wedding, and watching you do it has helped me big time

I hate it when effects are slathered on like sonic mayonnaise, but I like what you did with them here. I don't believe you overdid it.
This was, imho, elegantly played, all the little emotional and tonal nuances beautifully delivered. You should be proud.
