Haha thanks, I'm getting a few requests on doing instructional videos for the opeth songs I've done. I might to it if I have the time. Subscribe to my channel (if you haven't already) and you'll get updates.
Pretty much hit everything perfect. very good job. I would upload my cover of this, but I mean you already have 5 stars and 11 k views! right on mate!
Hi guys, I'm uploading, as I write, a new video that shows you how to play this bit of the song. It's pretty much in depth information on what I'm doing so be sure to check it out.
Nice. My problem with opeth covers is when people can play the song but they constantly fumble. I saw none of that in this video. Excellent job. Keep up the good work!
k what the hell. i found tabs on this and its in some crazy tuning i aint herd of so i tune down to it and it still sounds WAYYY off. HELP! i play perfect to the tab and it sounds like someone farting in a dumpster.
which tab did you use to learn this? or did you figure it out by ear?
Because the begining chords your using don't sound as full as the ones I use HOWEVER the tab I have doesn't have the chord progression that your playing at the end and I want to learn it.
Although opeth songs are so long (sometimes 15 minutes) sometimes they use chords repetitivley. Although i love the music, i wish they didnt get a bit repetitive. like blackwater park or deliverance.
I love their repetitiveness. Their music is a quality completely different from other metal bands, and you're not supposed to try and get the same feeling from Opeth as you from like Slayer, or Decapitated. Opeth is meant to be savored.
How long have you been playing? Was that D-16GT your first guitar? I am planning to get one, because I really really liked it at Guitar Center. I worked off enough money at my job. The problem is, I am nowhere near as good as you. Did you learn on a nice guitar???
#2- Do ur self a favor, buy the best guitar u can afford. (as long as u r going to stick with it)I own the same martin d16gt and am in love with it. I've had it for over 2 years and it just keeps getting better! I've been playing for 25 years and have WASTED money on some guitars. You cannot go wrong with Martin, but u need to spend $1000 +/-. U will enjoy playing so much more when the guitar is of excellent quality.The d16gt is the best bang for yr $.
tuning is called Open Dm, only with the E1 string tuned to E. and very nice job, some lack of feeling on some parts but that won't drag you down to 4 stars.
This is really good one of the best Opeth covers I've heard

so awesome! you're an amazing player. and i sang along in the part where there are lyrics, it was so much fun haha :)
RecklessZOMBIE16 7 months ago
What tuning are you in? It should be DADFAE. That way, when you hit the harmonics, it's an Am / Dm chord.

If you want Dm the low E should be tuned to D

That the high E string is tuned in E and not in D, E is the "Add 9" in DM, look up some theory about chords. :)

Nahh this is not my first guitar.. this is my most recent guitar. I've been playing for about 5 and a half years now.
My first guitar was an Epiphone G-310 which is quite good for the price.
But learning on a good guitar is not bad. You should buy that guitar !
