i loved it. ive been 4 about 8 years and i just learned how to play the solos to it. believe it or not, my dad taught me how to play this and he was taught by allen collins himself
hey kid, 5 stars. great skynyrd cover! and you've only been playing 4 years? the best sweet home lead cover that i've seen out here, by far.
your bending those notes with feeling, a lot of guys don't, they're just mechanical when they bend them. that feeling is something you can't learn, either you have it or you don't.
you definately have it. i like the finger picking too. toy caldwell of the marshall tucker band used to say a pick just got in the way.
dude i know that's a fender strat and all but is it like a standard or a american standard? plz tell because i luv the sound you get out of that axe!!!
ur not gonna punch anyone in the face cuz u dont know where i stay. this kid sucks he needs a fricken haircut, preferably a fade with his initials in it
omg ur so good! i just learned this song and i find it really hard probably because i just started playing electric guitar and it's only my 4th lesson with my teacher, anyway ur so amazing love it!
I'm just so sad to hear someone that good at 12 while I'm almost 18 and couldn't just play that song... Taht's not too hard (well almost too hard) but it looks impossible to me to remember all riffs..
And you're fingerpicking all along.. Goddamnit you're very very good.
You sure have a lot of guitars on that wall of yours [: I like your hair, haha. You've got the classic young rocker look, and an obvious good taste in music.
dude u rock check mine but i use a boss bluesdriver but i still cant get that blues tone like ur gettin course im playin a lespaul ur using a strat is ur's the standard??
I disagree with your post comments. I think its a great tone. More gain than the record but still nice. Keep it up, youre better than me and I've been playing for 8 years.
I like this because its not "book-perfect" You didnt just look for tabs and play it you gave it some "snazz" thank god someone does that keep goin man you will completely kick ass man.
It's not one of the most difficult songs but you mastered some of the "heavier" parts really good. Not often haered on youtube! far out! Keep practicing and rock on!
Very good. The best advice I can think of to give you is FEEL the music, don't just play it. Think about what the song means to you and put that emotion into the performance. That's the difference between being good and being great.
And like wizardeal said, try recording with a different mic.
It's the little built in mic in the camera that messes it up (I have the same prob) you can try recording it with a mic and then mixing the silent vid with the clean soundtrack. Your playing kicks ass, when I was 12 I could barely play smoke on the water on one string!
Strat 2 Sent me your Vid..I Subbed!! this is Great..for your age and you look about 13..or 14..This is fantastic.. Id cut That distortion a bit though..But Your Lines are GOOD!!!Looks Like your Fingerpickin Too!!
Thanks for sending Strat , I saw and sent out after first viewing , Never got a reply , But this young man should get picked up by a production company now and groomed . /5 :o)tm
Mike, just throwing in my own thoughts, but with what I'm seeing I'm thinking that this lil bro, given a couple of years and the right exposure, has the potential to be lethal.
TallChai has it, Rio has it. They're both spectacular talents, and they have your support to make it happen.
Andy also has it. I see music in his soul. With our support, I think his potential as a musician is monstrous.
HUH.. ok.. u R very good future star you R. right matterial and adorable too. Oh Gawd I hope your school uses your gift and that you get to perform on a regular basis? [ clapping!] 10stars
You nailed this one. I've got to say that I'm amazed at your talent. You play with more heart than some guys that have been playing for 20+ years. Keep on rockin'.
