Synyster Gates Sweep Picking Lesson...

[sarjanAbong]

he sure got nimble fingers.....

[MissTeresa27]

Id like to see anyone play this at the right speed and look good doing it!!!

[fallen757]

ahaha this is terrible

[Dav3i]

@fallen757 I don't wanna hate but why are you even here? If you don't like synyster, thats okey I respect your opinion but thats no reason to flame on videos he is in. If I were you I would probably get a life first.

[ZelaznyWDK]

@fallen757 haha fuck you bitch

[HEAVYD2012]

he can play it ok, but he really sucks at explaining it

[rufus4880]

@HEAVYD2012 i have the same fucking problem

[FieryGuitarDooD]

hahaha it sounds like when i try to sweep xD

[SynysterIntentions]

I love Syn.

[nonpoint666rocks]

i find quite arrogant the fact that in his guitar it's partly written his name

[ninjajimzandnick]

@nonpoint666rocks it's his signature guitar dumbass.

[nonpoint666rocks]

@ninjajimzandnick no fuck, seriously? i thought he was walking down the street and saw a guitar with his name partly written and said "hey thats pretty cool, i'll buy it" idiot

[guitars357]

watch doug steele sweep, those are fuckin sweeps not this shit

[christl2206]

it doesnt matter if he plays everything perfectly or not. it could be that many guitarists are better than him but he can write the riffs and others cant. and u can improve in playing so much but not so much in writing riffs.

[flashbackguitar]

@christl2206 so his simplistic sweeping patterns are riffs? all of his corny leads are also good? he lacks creativity in my opinion

[PsychoGuitar66]

wow... this bitch sucks... i cant believe people listen to this crap. i can play all his songs and riffs blinded while fighting a 60 foot horny bear and i still wont mess up as much as him

[husky940]

@PsychoGuitar66 yeah right, id like to see you play just one of his solos. your just jealous cuz hes actually good and a lot better than you and is faamous of it

[PsychoGuitar66]

@husky940 hey fuck you bitch. ill smoke some bomb ass weed and then fuck ur mom!

[husky940]

@PsychoGuitar66 haha go ahead. its your loss dude

[SuperRichardSimmons]

@PsychoGuitar66 Haha, Fuckin loser, A mom joke, AND talking about being a pothead, get a life dude

[renardcosmique]

@PsychoGuitar66 prove it

[narto1223344]

@PsychoGuitar66 if your so much better than how about going and actually getting your first guitar and practice for 15 years! MMMMMk and why would you want to fight a horny bear? oh thats obvious

[realfun1sher]

wow his sweeps arent as clean as on the albums ...

[tarr1575]

And yes syn has some wickedass solos forexsample to end the rapture, batcountry,trash and scattered,Afterlife,Blinded and chains,nightmare allmost every song has a epic solo so that proves that he's a beasty guitarplayer and not a whole lot of poeple could touch his shit not saying he's the best in the world but he's my mother fuckin hero who I learned half my shit from him so yeah..........RIP-rev

[fallen757]

@tarr1575 ahahahahahahahahahahaha

[tarr1575]

I tell u right now people that hate a7x u listen to all there cds from sounding 7thtrunpet to selftitled they said 1 of there goals were to make the best sounding music and in my opinion they his that long back in city of evil so haters go fuck ur self and go listen to slipknot......iplayed guitar for 8years now wasent for that bad I would be as good check my vids out got some sweetpicking just started to get it down......peace a7xfans

[tarr1575]

Syn my favorite guitarplayer ur a god dam beasts wouldnt be as good as guitar as I a today if it wasent for u ur style sounds just intense melody luv it......RIP-Rev

[Kaeb135]

I WANT THAT GUITAR!!!!

[ls15shot]

@Kaeb135 Me too. I'm gonna get one eventualy haha

[ShadysGirl27]

Amazing video : ) I love Syn Gates . He's my idol <3

[Agn0stiC85]

He can't do it slow either! :D

[feishey]

Fail

[iTzNoxy]

Wow, he's even worse at sweep picking than I am. Some lesson...

[CalVoFrK6532]

@iTzNoxy upload a video :P

[ShadysGirl27]

@iTzNoxy I bet He's a lot better than you judging how hes in a fucking band and he's the lead guitarist so watch what you say because your at a worse level than he is. Synyster Gates is fucking amazing soo , don't even try to prove me wrong. And Sweep picking isnt the easiest thing to do so you can shut up. k? good. Dont comment on this video if you're gonna say somthing bad.

[nivramkl]

@Decadence161 A7X till death!

[seanimous]

this, to me, sounds roughly equivilent to a swarm of flies buzzing over a steamy pile a cow shit....

not bad though.

[BrianGuitarShred]

lol, sloppy as hell. For really great sweep picking look up "Serrana" by Jason Becker.

[CalVoFrK6532]

@BrianGuitarShred are you comparing a young guitarist when he was even younger than what he is now with a guitarist that has been playing probably twice the time that synyster has been playing in this video ?

[BrianGuitarShred]

@CalVoFrK6532 Are you fucking mentally retarded? Jason Becker was 18 in that video. He got ALS and couldn't play after he was 20. Synyster Gates is at least 20 in this video, and can't even lick Jason Becker's ballsack sweat with sweeping.

[ls15shot]

@BrianGuitarShred Stfu! Syn is a guitar god so fuck u

[LilMeow3]

I think these are the sweeps to The Wicked End, no?

[Gikanks556]

But how do you know that for sure?

[SynsterFear]

syn is awesome HES NOT THE BEST but DEFINITELY MOST AWESOME

[XxxELV3ZxxX]

Whatever man syn kicks major ass!!!!!!!!

[XredtechX]

Alexi aint even best in Finland. And they use another keyboards to play most of his solos too. :D They got only best  keyboard player in Finland.

[Gikanks556]

I agree with AFIfan. You faggots need to stop saying he is The best. There is no best. And I Dont get this sweep picking shit. Its stupid.

[ledhead713]

you probably think sweep picking is stupid because you can't

[Gikanks556]

And Neither can You.

[Headbanga03]

he probably can if hes saying you cant

[Headbanga03]

cause you cant do it?

[TheButtlag]

Does any of the actual members of the band have a YouTube account or channel or something?

[Headbanga03]

the band does

[rockpwnsu]

sounds sloppy

[Headbanga03]

eh it is

[AFIfan793]

to stop everyones bitching Syn said he doesnt make the top 20 modern guitarists, he said it, just because hes YOUR favorite doesnt mean he is, he is one of my favorites becuase of his technique and he does make good solos that arent that hard, he is good yes, but not the best, stop sayinghe is, it just gives him a bad name, he is good, not the best, he said hes not near the best of modern guitarists, he also said"don't even compare me to classic guitarists.... except eddie van halen." -thank you

[GuItArPrO12321]

i agree. I love syn but he's definately not the best

[GIN024]

That was really awesome but I'm sorry, I didnt get it....?

[mybeardie123]

wow love how your bitching about one of his videos why watch it get off it you tards quit watching if you dont like him or his music go watch the jonas brothers or something

[mybeardie123]

ok so syn sucks right well show us your six string sweep with little or no mistakes oh that's right bet you couldn't even do a three string sweep the reason its sounds bad is because of the distortion learn how to play dumbfuck

[tatertot470]

he perdy much blows

[therevismyclone]

for some people i can see why this wouldn't make sense. you have to be somewhat experienced w/ guitar to understand what he's talking about. this isn't a beginners vid.

[xShutUrMoufx]

ann this is fucking siick in my opinion he wasnt the best in this but wtf ever

a7x is by far the best modern band out

there keeping metal alive

i just got bak from an a7x concert syns gotten so much fucking better then this

[xShutUrMoufx]

wow you guys sound like a bunch of jelous bitches

synyster gates is forsure the best modern guitarest like idk besides yngwie malmsteen

[OMGandyOMG]

yh it depends us yngwie is really fast and makes good music but syn is more known and i think syn's sounds are smoother and more likable

[tanooj2]

hey, have you heard of a guy called joe satriani? he's the best modern guitarist. alexi laiho is better than syn too.

[emosanta4]

no i think syn is becuase syn has more harmony and he can plays fats and alexi just plays crazy fast

[MetallicaMan150]

satriani is better but brian is a sweeping god

[koen37]

thats not true, alexi has great melody in his solo's and songs and is alot cleaner than synyster... at sweeping at least

[emosanta4]

well its just not solo if you listen to the wicked end

[emosanta4]

it has a harmony or like chapter 4 there all harmonies that alexi laiho doesnt use he normally hamonizes wioth the keyboard or does heavy riffs

[SkootSucksAtLife]

jeff loomis rapes synyster fates

[crowstar111]

do u hav any idea how uneducated and blatantly stupid ur comment looks...??

[OMGandyOMG]

are you aware of how gay you sound 'hurr how uneducated durr im soo smart i no lots about guitarists durr' you sir can shove it up yo ass

[crowstar111]

haha ok then,

[raiden233]

have you heared of synsters influences?! it includes alexi laiho who is so fucking awesome too

[djspoz]

pretty cool he even takes the time to give a shit to show peeps his stuff.

[dunafrothint]

So you're better right? I don't get where you have the right to say that. And don't come back with the freedom of speech, because its people like you who make us almost regret freedom of speech.

[gleichgewicht455]

Look up Chelsea Constable.There's a video of her when she was twelve here on youtube.She's a jazz guitarist, and in that video, her sweep picking puts Syn to a crying fucking shame.She was fucking twelve.Syn rarely play arpeggios, but when he does, he's still shitty.

[a7xrulz247]

nobody cares

[DrummerDude2134]

his sweeping is way better, but his distortion is muddy.

[guitarmaster123445]

My god people why do you even watch this video if all you have to fuckin say is that bad things about him, i mean come on u fuckin gaywads grow a pair of nuts and shut the fuck up if you dont like him and find a video that u actully like and comment on it instead of insulting Synyster Gates on being better than you!!!

[Randomlystoned]

whatever anyone says i respect those sweeps..

[WhiteKnighT161]

why do people hate him?? his solos are awesome especially seize the day solo ..

[nivramkl]

@WhiteKnighT161 jealousy

[TangeClown]

@WhiteKnighT161 the people that do hate him don't have good sense of music. and yes his solos are amazing. seize the day, gunslinger, beast and the harlot...... he is god

[karinaroxyyy]

@WhiteKnighT161 I don't hate him. He's one of my biggest idols

[AinuxAntalai]

@WhiteKnighT161 because he makes guitar look easy..most ppl prolly hate him cuz of their ego. the whole 'im the best' but they can't play a god damn thing by a7x. i just respect em and hope to one day be able to play all his solos :D

[tholomewplague12]

holy shit guy... send me i dare you to uplaod a video of you playing better than him...retard

[haloguy9876]

Dude are you fuckin high on crack!?!? the band you may not like is one of the best meadal bands around and this guy fucking owns at guitar unless your better than him i would shut up!

[AvengedSevenfold190]

syn is a lot better now tho...i think that the sweeping is good, but he can do WAAAY better than this....

[xXAfterburnXx]

@AvengedSevenfold190 Syn is AMAZING Now :)

[a27wolf]

I agree with DaRockLobster, too many people see a cool badass looking guy and he's automatically the fuckin' best, and no one can do better than him. There are plenty of fuckin' guitarists out there that can play better than him, he and Avenged Sevenfold just happened to strike record deal. No hate at all, A7X is a good band. Just stating facts.

[punkjake]

Yeah Syn is like, one of my favorite guitarists but I know for a fact he isn't number 1. I agree that just cos he looks cool and has tattoos and can sweep, doesn't make him better than everyone else

[sciulli27]

this guy sucks so bad i dont know why he even trys his band is pretty gay to

[toomuchwow247]

ur kidding my you faggot id like to see you even attempt any of his solos dont even say shit you little gay punk his music is pro, you are some pubeless fag trying to insult him to make you look better.
