[intothevoid20]

amazing work!

[keenanfan1]

Wow, that was just incredible!! Thanks so much for the invite.

[MortenFaerestrand]

@keenanfan1 Thank you, and welcome in:)

[linkmaster50]

I am pumped. This deserves to go viral..

[MortenFaerestrand]

@linkmaster50 hehehe, thank you:)

[AmundLauritzen]

WOW!

[rockman00blues]

Love this kind of music, it's like playing techno on a guitar! And how badass isn't that? :D

[MortenFaerestrand]

@rockman00blues Thank you, it's definately techno on the guitar, very fun to play!:)

[rockman00blues]

@MortenFaerestrand By the way, is that a wah pedal you're using to change the sound of the guitar?

[MortenFaerestrand]

@rockman00blues no, it's an expression pedal controlling the cut-off point on a low pass filter.

[rockman00blues]

@MortenFaerestrand It's actually the first time I've ever seen one of those, is the pedal dedicated to that effect or is it using plugins in your DAW?

[BassManqk]

very nice

[gitarmats]

Meget interessant musikkstykke! Høres flott ut, spesielt mot slutten når det tok litt av!

Trodde først det var to gitarspor siden det ofte var to vinduer med gitarspilling, men blei litt ekstra imponert når eg fant ut at det bare var ett gitarspor!

Trampingen var jo meget effektiv tross simpelheten!

[Hell23boy]

it seems that this sound comes from heaven, beautiful music brother ....

thanks

[NO11YOU]

Hey Morten, do you have any album's out?

[MortenFaerestrand]

Yes Morten it is amazing how many thing we can do with guitar. l too have a very ecletic. past. started out playing folk mas in Catholic church of my Karl who taught how play. l was performing in front of people after three weeks of lessons. Went on to teaching him things later which he said l would. L did not think o at the time. In 1992 l finally learned how to read music.

[evilek]

@MortenFaerestrand Shared... amazing stuff. Started pretty slowly but at the end woah! ;]

[Dnozzle2794]

that was amazing! what kind of pedal is that? some kind of wah perhaps?

[MortenFaerestrand]

@Dnozzle2794 Thanks! The pedal is an expression pedal, it's controlling the cut-off frequency for a low pass filter in the Line 6, M13.

[Dnozzle2794]

@MortenFaerestrand oh wow, got yourself a nice pedal board there! Personally I prefer induvidual stomp boxes since some companies just make a certain effect better than the next but your tone always sounds great in your videos! Love the lessons, keep them coming!

[dwarfie93]

Fantastisk bra!

[Barefoot67]

Really amazing piece! I was wondering how you got to the point where you are now? Did you go through a lot of guitar teachers in the first ten years or so or did you pick it all up from listening to records?

[MortenFaerestrand]

@Barefoot67 thank you! I have had teachers to help me, but the real "teacher" is the music you listen to. A good teacher will guide and inspire you, but all the REAL answers are in the music itself..

[Paiste01]

This is amazing Sir, keep up the good work!

[MortenFaerestrand]

@Paiste01 Thank you!! I will :-)

Damn Morten,

That heel Kick drum is way cool.

You know what the good thing is about you...besides having great technique and making cool lessons you actually write good music!!!

Reminds me that I still have to check out your Bergen March.
