  • The edgeee!

  • very good, nice tone. i'm now giving myself neck ache trying to learn it off you ( having to keep pausing lol) cheers!!!

  • Amazing! You added some personal touches to great effect. I've probably looked at every Pride guitar cover on YouTube and have two favorites. This is one.

  • U2!!! my favorite band! nice guitar work man!

  • playing god but your hand is in the bad position

  • Anyone know what the chords would be and in what key when accompanying this lead??

    Thanx

  • @1:11 you have to delay the tone...thats how Edge is playing it...

    But all in one OUTSTANDING DUDE! ;)

  • whats ur delay settings

  • Accidently hit the toggle switch,

    but still an oustanding effort.....

  • What are the settings for this song?

    Please help me

  • This was one of the first video's I ever saw on YouTube, always wondered what you were adjusting during the beginning of video, silly question but I know guitarists are always trying to get the sound just right

  • You play the best version ive heard of this.

  • ive listened to a few clips on YT and you have probably the closest tone and feel to the actual Edge playing.

  • deffo nailed his sound mate...... nice one.

  • You are truly amazing mate. Fantastic job.

  • Cool! :) Check my covers, and subscribe ;)

  • Hi can you tell me where these websites are and do they also have the tabs?

  • Hi! I love this song, it's my favourite. Can you do the tutorial of this song, please? You play very well, and it sounds like the original song of U2. Good job! It's magnificent! Congratulations!!!

  • Beat is faster than the orignal.

  • what guitar is this mate?

  • freaking awesome!! your tone is perfect. it sounds great! can't wait to see your other vids!

  • ele eh bom????// quem é bom é o The Edge que criou todos esses hits esse mongo ae so copiou Edge genio..

  • awesome cover, may i ask what effects/tone

  • Outstanding. Mastery of tone, dynamic, playing. Wow.

  • I'm..... thinking..... more echo....

  • Nops I guess its pitch perfect and the transition near 00:42 just gives me goosebumps.

    gr8 overall but esp from 00:35 - 00:50 is what I've cut to be my mobile ringtone.

  • nice job

  • Awesome cover! You, Trevorstark, and Ralqh are absolutely the best U2 coverers on YouTube. Congrats!

  • also check out mick3b1g's channel, he's got some great demonstrations of Edge's sound.

    Not to take anything away from you, sherm911!!!! You're awesome!!!

  • The thing that makes these guys great really is the gear. Playing Bad or Pride with a les paul through a fender amp isnt gonna get that Strat into AC 30 tone. I think the guitar is the biggest thing though cause hes not using an AC 30 but it still sounds good. I use AC 30 modeling and it almost sounds like its there but its just missing that Strat sound.

  • Meu Deus o cara é muito bom, o melhor!!!!!

  • Ive been listening to u2 songs since 1981,and Ive heard all of the covers on youtube. Being a guitar player myself, and understanding how hard Edges style is to play, you hands down are the best on Youtube! Alot of people viewing need to realize the years of grueling practice to achieve what you have!

  • wish type of delay are u using

    and how it is setup

    thanks

  • Hey - do you use Herdim picks? I find that when I try and use them the pick gets caught on the E, B and G string when I play with the pick upside down like the Edge.

  • where is the best place to download U2 backtracks?

  • yea. i want to know too!

  • Very good!! i like your sound and your style

  • awesom job dude...!!!

  • Yes your right! It does sound like the album version,I think Edge might have used the bridge pickup for that song!

  • Actually for the album version the Edge used his les paul custom. But yes, the bridge pickup does sound a lot like the treble setting on a les paul custom as well.

  • No, he used a hollowbody with stereoPU's rewired to mono.

  • no comments just great.....

    P.S.. in seconds 42-50, its sounds as the real song. love it.

  • you're right! it sounds better

  • i jacked off to it man

  • All the critics , be good or bad...fortify your job. We want more from you...lets go!

    gretings from Tijuana!

  • The cover is very good!! but the bass on the back track isn't right

  • fair play to you big man......thats worth a second listen....Hail hail !!!

  • 00:40-00:45 just gave me goosebumps all over the place...that tune change was even better than the real thing

  • a lot of us can play some songs good... and there are a few that stand out!!!!! you are one of them....... but ´the beauty of you tube is there is a lot of inspirationa and motívation to be heard from great covers done by people like yourself

  • Incredible... great to sing along with :-)

  • Even got the 11,12, 14 down on the high "E" too. Nice one. If you could get a better sound recording quality your vids would be soooo much better. Often sounds like to too much echo but that could be overmodulation to the mike.

  • top niveau comme dab

  • "Electric Co" pleaaaase !

    or

    "Please" electric cooooo ! :)

    as you want ...

  • Great stuff. It looks like you're playing in a storage unit. Your artistic efforts are appreciated very much. Keep it up.

  • I am speechless.

  • the best unsucky version ive seen

  • I just can't get enough of you and your guitar! YOU ARE AWESOME !!!

  • AWESOME ! :D

  • Hey Man great job and nice tone I really enjoyed watching you play, would you mind passing on to us what you used? Amp, delay, pedals and such, thanks man!

  • One word... Brilliant.

  • It`s great:D the best version I have ever heard!

  • absolument parfait!!!!!!!

  • man ur rock

    great job

  • good

  • absolutely spot-on

  • SHERM911 THE KING ! ! !

  • wow

  • Can you play With or Without You ? It`s my favourite song, please :)

  • AMAZING !!!

  • OMG. Just listen second 42 to second 50. That tone is amazing. You Rocks sherm.

  • lol it sounds like the real song!

  • Real true Jerry!

  • wicked

  • To my ear, it sounds like Sherm is using 7-8 repeats which is more thsn edge uses. I believe Edge uses 3-4 repeats at most. However,Sherms sound is so sweet in this video who can really argue the settings? I do find it hard to believe that this sound comes from a Fender Pro amp and Digitech rp series effects system as claimed. I would love to know how to create this sound without the axe fx, korg sdd 3000, tc 2290.

  • How many repeats do you have going?

  • great tone!!!! have you tried it on the bridge middle position yet???

  • That is without a doubt the best one of these I have ever heard. Shit. I was gonna give up and play bass. I am inspired. How long is the delay?

  • hey I was wondering if you were using the Axe Fx for this and other U2 songs. I'm guessing so since I've seen your name on the Axe FX forums. could you share the settings for this song, the axe exchange seems to be a little slow lately.

    Thanks

  • I've watched most of these clips and now and a few other peoples attempts. Cant begin to tell you how impressed I am with robs playing. As good as the edge himself!!! Keep it up mate....

  • AMAZING!!! Thanks for putting this on.

    I'm going to email this to my nephew who is now taking guitar. He is 12 and I know it will encourage him to practice .

    Keep up the good work!!!

  • What do you set you delay at? 160 bpm?

  • you have tried to switch to bridge position and...that's the sound of album version! incredible, you are very good. do you use any overdrive for it?

  • Sherm's the man!

  • Switched to your bridgepickup it sounds just like Edge's guitar on UF. Amazing... Please check out my version of Pride.

  • best cover i've heard

  • very cool!

  • very cool man, as usual...with backing tracks or not!

  • Hey! Great cover !

    Could you please tell me what kinf of amp/effects you use for this great sound ?

    ThanX

  • Absolutely AMAZING!!! I wish I could play like you!!

  • ***** - definetely 5 star!!!

  • what are your settings?to get that sound? modulation delay type?
