Sleepless Again - In Flames (solo)

[Justerbuster89]

its better without background track becaues u can see what u really sound like and weather ur really good or not.

good job lol.

[nerdheadbanger]

Hehe good point! This is a really old video though..so the quality is bad..I finally experimented with methods of recording so I can get good quality..so if you liked it, please check out my other videos :)

[Stijnhy]

nice :)

just don't put your video in negative colors plz :)

[nerdheadbanger]

Haha, thanks. It's the only video I have in negative colors, though :P

[bigmonkeyman44]

help you see fretting better.

[nerdheadbanger]

I noticed that too, once I uploaded the video! Haha Video-lessons would actually be helpful in negative!

[bigmonkeyman44]

good job on the solo sounds perfect, glad you didnt use backing track most people try to hide their sloppy playing behind it ur's is clean.

i just started playing about 2 years ago but barly play it, i need to get a good amp like marshall halfstack lol.

[nerdheadbanger]

My amp is a Line 6 Spider II 30 Watt, so you don't need massive amps for good sound. Just get something that's like 15-30 Watts, and you're fine.

[bigmonkeyman44]

Yea i know you dont need a big amp, but my friend had one sounded badass, but i never payed attention does ur amp have built in distortion or you running through distortion pedal? i have a boss overdrive/distortion pedal, but the amp i have is so small doesnt effect shit.

Also how long have you been playing did you take any lessons? i watched a chromatic scale that's my music theory lol.

[nerdheadbanger]

Nah, Line 6 amps already have all the effects in them, so I run through its distortion. However the tone is kinda weak because my Ibanez Iceman has stock pickups, and I'm recording through my laptop built-in mic. I have a Boss Mt-2, and I agree that you'd need at least 15-20 watts to run pedals well to improve the tone.

negative colors is for cool people.....hmm i dont have any vids with negative colors

[fhorsaken]

[PiotrSzyPiotr]

good work

[nerdheadbanger]

Thank you!

[wlkdesigns]

not too bad! could've done with a bit more practice before you posted it though. Like it overall though. Ending was a bit effed. Just seemed slopppy, needed a bit more work.

4/5

[nerdheadbanger]

Thanks for the constructive criticism, bro.

[Mnjaf]

Kareeeeem, I miss you so.

I hope the groupie thing still counts..

:))

[nerdheadbanger]

It does! Haha.

[gyroscope12]

[ddelgadovill]

[Reflectivv]

[PDXguitarlegend]

Hey Kareem, very cool! I hope all is well in your neck of the woods!

[nerdheadbanger]

Things are going well here, thanks; I'm just stuck with all this homework! Final exams coming soon...you really are lucky to be done with education, haha. Hope you're having a good time at Disney Land! =]

[nerdheadbanger]

Ouch, the video rating dropped to 3 stars >.>

By the way! I'll record the Trooper next Friday for sure! I practiced it today, and I just need to work a bit on this one bar in the solo; otherwise, it's all good!

[PDXguitarlegend]

uh oh, I just gave you a 5 star rating! As for Disneyland, that's actually a few months away.. I just booked it the other day. :)

Can't wait to hear Trooper! Yeah!!!

[nerdheadbanger]

My bad, haha. I haven't been to Disney Land since I was living in San Francisco...that was back when I couldn't speak yet, haha.

Recording it will be fine; however, I'm still having major problems with the whole separating the audio from the video...I gotta talk to the computer geeks at my school haha.

[PDXguitarlegend]

Cool... man I have to figure it out too... can't remember how I did it previously!

[nerdheadbanger]

Ah! Technology these days! =P

[jinkleyawie]

Amazing. =]
