# Bad Horsie! ~ Steve Vai Cover - Andrew Beveridge#

[ElectricGuitarFan1]

can you please pass me the tab?

[ElectricGuitarFan1]

excellent excellent

but but

you need more technical in parts of that song friend

you skipped several slides

[wackyoneone]

I always thought that this song is the pinnacle of what making a guitar cry and sing is all about. Top job dude.

[CGrima97]

you use the distortion from the ux1? And you put the cry baby before the interface?

[8run0n]

freakin awesome dude!

[ThePiratephil]

Very well done obviously it's not exact because vai has a way with his guitar that u can't replicate but all the same a a very skilled and well done cover

[OniAkuma15]

are you using something on your finger? o.0

[Andrewbevguitarist]

@OniAkuma15 Yes... A Slide :) for added slinkyness....

[Dragslo]

@Andrewbevguitarist

Can this song be played without the bottleneck, I've lost mine and I would probably forget to put it on....and off...

[Garadlin]

Cool sound mon :)

[MrGuitarboy97]

Whats the tuning?



[Andrewbevguitarist]

@MrGuitarboy97 The original track is in drop C tuning. For my version I transposed the back up a tone and played it in drop D so that I wouldn't have to totally readjust my tremolo.

Thanks

[LLANGSTON69]

Pretty fucking sweet, dude! 

[socaldgr24]

fuckin amazing

[Andrewbevguitarist]

@wannagotopopeyes I'm not sure mate, they might... I think i've downloaded POD X3 sounds before online and they worked in pod farm, so maybe they would work vice versa also.

PM me your email and you can always try... Or check the top of the comments page and I've already said to someone else what stuff I used, so maybe you can apply this to your device.

Thanks

Andrew

[VickVoltsRocks]

BITCHIN.

[Andrewbevguitarist]

@VickVoltsRocks Thank You!

[StevieVaibanez]

This is amazing. Your sound is amazing.

Please tell me your Pod farm setup, I play a lot of Vai with Pod farm and would love to know what you use, as I cant seem to get this tone. Many thanks!

[Andrewbevguitarist]

@StevieVaibanez Hey dude... This is the stuff I used. Amps: Treadplate Dual, Solo 100 Head (Dual Tone)

FX: Stereo Expo Chorus (Quite Slow settings), Screamer, Medium Hall Reverb, Digital Delay (one quick and the other a bit slower)

Hope this helps you

If you're still struggling to get the right sound I can email you the tone file, PM me your email if you like

:)

[marcelo143532461345]

[Andrewbevguitarist]

@marcelo143532461345 I recorded this video the day before my 17th birthday.

[noggy77]

[anthalogia]

I'm not definitely at your level...you very good player, but try do more and better at harmonics and palm muting...at rest I can't see any problem...wishing you to be a great player

[aquafishsoup]

how long have you been playing?

[Andrewbevguitarist]

@aquafishsoup 4 and a half years.

[sander151187]

Line 6 UX1 sounds quite good. Had a toneport once, but couldn't make it sound like I wanted it to sound :/ Nice playing bro!

[Carthag0Eagle]

Love it!

[XrMboX]

Nice

[XXNIRVANAXX1000]

YOU ARE THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!

[Andrewbevguitarist]

@FinalApollo However to my ears they do not not as sound good for more mid gain bluesy sounds and they can sometimes get slightly harsh sounding when you roll the volume down on your guitar. They are still pretty usable for most styles though. I guess if you are after these pickups then maybe blues is not your thing! :-D

I used the crunch lab for almost all of the song except maybe for some of the fast picking parts during the solo.

Thanks

Andrew Beveridge

[Andrewbevguitarist]

@FinalApollo I installed my crunch lab with the blade facing the neck, this is what the dimarzio website reccomends and also what John Petrucci uses in his own guitars. I haven't tried installing it the other way round but apperently it makes the sound less warm and more cutting, or so i have heard.

The pickups are both high output and have great string seperation even under high gain. They cope very well and sound awesome with both high gain and clean sounds.

[scotty688]

fucking awesome! Perfect. Killer guitar too. stock pickups?

[Andrewbevguitarist]

@scotty688 Thanks! I replaced the pickups with Dimarzios (Crunch Lab and Liquifire)

[Andrewbevguitarist]

@shreddersk8er Yes definitely! with the replacement pickups there is not a huge difference between it and some of the prestige models. Also, before I bought the pickups I emailed Jaden Rose about my choices and he suggested both this set or a mo'joe PAF pro combination would sound good. He said that the other set would be great for more 80s style rock/shred stuff and that the Petrucci pickups would work for more modern styles.

[smigio111188]

dude that was sick...bad ass song... u got into that solo..watched it twice

[Andrewbevguitarist]

@smigio111188 :-> Thank you so much for the kind words!

Greetings from north Scotland!

[neo69hk]

super nice playing and nice sound .. did you update the Pod Farm Metal packs ? i want wonder why my line6 ux1 can't sounds like you ..

[Andrewbevguitarist]

@neo69hk Thanks For the comment!

The only extra model pack I have is the FX one, I don't have the Metal one...

Anyway, here is the stuff I used to get this sound:

Amps: Treadplate Dual, Solo 100 Head (Dual Tone)

FX: Stereo Expo Chorus (Quite Slow settings), Screamer, Medium Hall Reverb, Digital Delay (one quick and the other a bit slower)

Hope this helps you

[Erithlon]

@Andrewbevguitarist Can you get better tones with the pod farm than with your Blackstar Pedal plugged into your toneport?

[Andrewbevguitarist]

@Erithlon The Blackstar pedal sounds great when recorded but the only disadvantage is that I can't change the sound after recording, like I can using Pod Farm as a plug- in.

I sometimes use the pedal along with Pod Farm for reverb, delay and other effects.

However, Pod Farm on is own is sometimes just more convenient than having to keep re- recording takes with the pedal if I don't like the sound.

Thanks for the comment!

Andrew Beveridge

[Erithlon]

@Andrewbevguitarist Alright, thanks man! I do have one question left, does the blackstar pedal work with a power adapter like the one that is used with Boss pedals? (the standard 9v)

[Andrewbevguitarist]

@Erithlon The Blackstar pedal comes with its own adapter in the box, you can't run it off batteries like the boss ones though.

Thanks,

Andrew Beveridge
