Jani Liimatainen's demo performed by Alexis de Compreignac

[NablaMetal]

Dude... Awesome technic. Reminds a lot of Jani's. How long do you practice each day ?

[Alexisdc11]

@NablaMetal Thank you!! At this time, I used to practise like 4 hours each day... nowadays, I have less time to work on my technique but I try to keep my fingers trained by practising 1 or 2 hours everyday...

[mikesolo94]

You are fuking death guitarist and have extremly long fingers!! How old are you?

[Alexisdc11]

@mikesolo94 Er-thanks :) On this video, I was 17. Now I'm 20.

[avlmag1990]

fucking great playing, man! I like Jani

[mickey007r]

[Alexisdc11]

@mickey007r Thank you :) It's a custom made guitar. My friend Charles-Antoine Cargill made it for me.

[helloween6]

[riseagainstrul33]

[jofrenegger]

[Masterboychris]

Great job! Something on the part with the sweeps sounded weird to me. =/ But you played the sweeps right.

[Thestorfiskarn]

[fabian182]

COOL BRO ;)

[darkestnightdream]

[GitPH]

Awesome work man! Really cool! I`m a huge fan of Jani so trust me when I say that you did a great job!

Shred away!

[Alexisdc11]

Thanks! :)

[Rekilo]

The fluidity of your fingers scares me.

[2ar1nndm]

where did you get the tab?...by ear looks very hard to learn this

[Elmokorvo]

You're gonna make it big. Mark my words...

[Alexisdc11]

Thanks ! Really appreciate to see when people believe in me :)

[Hiksutins]

Dude ! nice 5/5 Do you have tabs for this if you do could you link em to me plz. Keep on rocking!

[Alexisdc11]

Thanks ! I used to have an old tab of this but I lost it. But as Ikirouta said, I'm pretty sure you can easily find a tab on the internet !

You know, I hardly ever use tabs to learn songs and guitar tricks. I think it's better to use your ear and your eyes :)

[jofired]

damn i envy you!! fuck you play so nice

[amangonecrazy]

wat kind of guitar is tat omg

[corsys666]

probably some kind of no-bullshit-bcrich or a dean-guitar.

[melinchoamantecaos]

please the tabs!!

[Ikirouta]

U can find them if u google Jani liimatainen demo tab

[jdcd56]

Hi, I want to know where I can find the backing track for this because I can't find it on the sites where i usually look for backing tracks. I just finished earing this out so i really want to start playing it.

[bbangsang1234]

[ArticanighT]

amazing!, you play with a great velocity and at the same time neatly like jani, i loved the video but i would like to ask the brand and the model of your guitar and if you use a any special pedal for it to sound this way plis.

Good Luck!

Marcos.

[Metallica38]

[Marriuz]

A purple-coloured guitar? ... OMFG THAT'S EPIC WIN! :'D

And shit you gave me a lot of inspiration there, dude. Thanks a lot! You're totally awesome!

[Alexisdc11]

Thanks dude !

I have some ideas for new videos that I'll record. hope you'll watch them :)

[Marriuz]

That's good to hear. I probably will watch them. I hope you'll play more Sonata Arctica in the future as well. :)

And damn, I need to get myself a purple guitar.

[Ikirouta]

cool guitar and fucking great playing

[wasanga456]

so cool :O if u doooooo got tabs.could i have them

[IWIWIW]

Very well done man. Must say, not quite as spot on as the original, but honestly the best youtube attempt I've seen. And, being the guy who uploaded the demonstration, I have umpteen video responses. So very well done

[Alexisdc11]

thanks !

I'm glad that people like my covers but I have to say I've become really better since the time did them. I will try to make new videos soon :)

hope you'll check them !

[0400375242]

u did good, but u have the uglyist guitar eva!

[siggitiggi]

reallyt well done its a really hard song, and im very suprized you actually got it so clean it isnt easy. i personally play the guitar so i kind of know:p

[DarkERocker]

Parfait !

J'adore la gratte aussi ;)

Continue comme ça :D

[Andrexthor]

You totally nailed it! You rock!

[ibanez33150]

you have alien fingers..... where did u get the taps? and whats the guitar company?

[Alexisdc11]

you meant tab ? I made the playback myself (because the tab I found was incomplete and full of mistakes). My guitar is a custom model made by the french luthier Charles-Antoine Cargill :)

[dealerbinq]

super!!! i'm trying to play it to

are u using a toneport?

[Alexisdc11]

thanks ! yes I'm using a toneport (I had the UX1 when I recorded this. now I have the UX8)

[ZamuTheGuitarist]

yeah... you're really great but i'm afraid that i have to say that nobody could do this better like jani did.. but you are not far from that point:D

[uegaitsu]

very good & cool

[angelalucard]

ok mec tu viens de me trouer le cul ton jeu est extra fluide et propre tu joue depuis longtemps ? chouette guitare tu as un tres bon luthier ^^

[Alexisdc11]

Merci :) quand j'ai fais cette vidéo, je jouais depuis 4 ans. J'adore cette guitare ! j'en ai rêvé pendant longtemps et le luthier Charles-Antoine Cargill me l'a construite exactement comme je voulais !

[2timmy4u]

You have ridiculously long fingers! Just like Jani's!

[StevenMalmsteen]

Very nice indeed, What equipment have you used to record/amp?

- Dushan.

[Alexisdc11]

The sound is recorded by the camera's mike... so I'm aware that the sound quality isn't good and I have to play as clean as possible.

[soadilias]

How much time it took you to learm it?

How long you play guitar?

That was the best cover of Jani's demo!!!

Keep it up!!!

[BlackArctico]

amazing your are so good man, you play so clean

[axenstar91]

[Dragslo]

Wow, what guitar is that? Awesome video, well done!

[Alexisdc11]

[Alexisdc11]
