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.
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
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!!!
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.
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!
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.
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.
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
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.
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!
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.
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.
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....
The edgeee!
