Beat It Solo

[DanielVieiraGuitar]

what can i do so i can stretch my pinky all the way to 19th fret in 00:11?

[AlGreeco]

one of the best solo cover ever !!! Wonder Beatifull Amazing !!!!!

[songos23]

Wow. Great..:D

[UpTheIronsKUKI93]

briliant

[Aaron04051992]

sickk one

[CoolSliminns]

Oh man, I'm a straight dude but, make love to me now cos that was freakin sweet!!!

[MrJacobjakey]

Man u own in the second tapping part.:D

[SerhatKBD]

Very nice! But it sounds like the guitar lost its tuning a little bit after 0:18

[Greanone9]

@serhatkbd he does that on purpose cuz its part of the song xD

[SerhatKBD]

@Greanone9 He doesn't do it on purpose because he doesn't seem to have a locking unit. The floyd rose without a locking unit eventually makes the guitar lose its tuning a little bit after the bends with the tremolo arm.

[SerhatKBD]

@SerhatKBD Or maybe the locking unit isn't tight enough if there is any.

[Greanone9]

@SerhatKBD i understand what you are saying but if you look at his right hand at that part he presses down on the whammy bar. probabaly causing it to make that sound.

[SerhatKBD]

@Greanone9 No I meant it sounds like that for the last 20 seconds.

[NickF97S]

@SerhatKBD could be cause of the wammy dive



[TheWyldepanther]

Awesome...

[micke83130]

bravo sans voir la vidéo et juste le bande son on s'y croirai

[pepectm]

Ibanez JS1000 BTW?

[solidusm88]

Where'd you learn how to play it?

[squiral247]

wow man sweet best solo cover so far

[CarouselFlip]

How do you do that effect at 0:07, 0:08, and 0:17 that makes your note instantly higher? Thanks.

[RobDFrizzle]

pinch harmonics or hes tapping the string. Its original a tap harmonic on the 14th fret but i dont know what hes doing

[ifckmepudding]

At 0:07 and 0:08, those are tapped harmonics. He's fretting the 7th fret, and he uses his picking hand to tap right on the 14th fret. This creates the high-pitched note because you know how the best natural harmonics are at the 5th, 7th, and 12th frets? 14 minus 7 is 7. Your finger fretting the 7th fret is like a nut, and tapping on the 7th fret above that "nut" will give u a harmonic. Same for when he frets the 9th fret, but this time it's the 5th fret above, as he still taps the 14th fret

[KellyIsMusical]

Great job 5 stars. Awesome control on those harmonics. That was exceptional. I just uploaded my cover of this great solo as well!!

[ALEXPLC]

Minor flaws, but probably the second best ive watch. Nice job mate

The fact that no one can quite get it right is a testament to the genius of EVH!

[Ozznize]

even for the man himself! check out the live version of him and michael jackson, love the studio version but the live didn't impress

[cliolord]

Makes sense! Awesome!

[SongCovers223]

@1862archstanton there to protect his face from melting from his solo cover

[Addymcghee]

U made that look so easy haha keep at it!!!

[stratocasterfranck]

u got all the hard stuff right.. but the easy stuff sounds bad. if you continue working, im sure youll get the best cover

[kdall26]

Video was meant for watching, not criticism.

[stratocasterfranck]

ok.. if floydian11 isn't able to accept criticism, then why he doesn't disable comments? if you upload something on youtube, you gotta accept that not every comments will be positive...

[BOURNExKILLA]

do u think u can mabye send a tab or something. I appreciate it a lot. Good job by the way too.

[mattjamesdoyle]

[ROTTENMAN222]

[jeyDp]

[rhcpjohn444]

[wallot33]

[faustolg]

Cool, nearly perfect 5*

[imnotokayrocker]

:)

that was soooooo awesome!

[ezfingerboarder]

insane.

[dortahor]

awsome cover man perfect playing

[gudinowilldie]

wow pretty good

[ollie333]

hes got a point though, and also, at the beginning of the solo, they are tapped harmonics at 14th fret, not pinch harmonics

[Tuloisboss]

OMG, bad, really bad.

[muddyfox91]

shup bitch

[ana222222222]

you tell the bitch

!

[chiQiboy]

Not bad at all bro,check mine out too

[tom0o0]

man shot bro

[SpartanHawk]

Awesome JS!!

[Logical19]

bad ass dude awesome 5*! what do u mean a backtrack?. sry nublet beginner :D

[leezep1]

fuckin wicked.

[nemesisrogue]

Nice "slippy" technique a la VH just still let down by the phrasing, vibrato and bends. Ed shakes the sh&t out of them so you gotta too.

As it is, it isn't good enough. Certainly not to be put down on record. So in that sense you can't play it yet as it's not good enough.

Work on the phrasing though and it will be faultless.

[simobubba]

so i' not the only person in the wolrd to have a Js signature model ^^. Nice Tecnique, for one of the funniest solo's to play in rock!

[maaghimself]

Nices one i've seen on here. Good job.

[chiQiboy]

good job man,check mine out

[britarthc]

good job man, good job

[magnum154]

what a fu**ing good job, dude!!!! you're awesome

[brvhrt101]

that is the most perfect version I've ever heard!!! thank u for shutting those others up!

[Floydian11]

Wow thanks a lot, dude, i really appreciate your comment ! I really did make effort to be as close as possible from the original take and that wasn't easy as you can imagine... :-) Thanks !

[trap4mind]

another good one.

[trabbie123]

A perfect cover just like the original one!

[mitch31300]

cool dude, listen my take to this one :)

[ominslash123k]

shit man you out do them all thats maaaad!!

[kramerxl]

Awesome. You're good man... I'd like to hear you playing The Final Countdown solo.

[Floydian11]

Hehe, I've recorded this video just for you, man !! I let you take a look to it and let a comment ;-)

[brvhrt101]

wow, yet another masterpiece from Mr. Floyd! Keep it up kid!

[sabathan777]

Fantastique, bien joué!
