just kidding man. good job. i just think you need to relax a little bit and play with more your heart than your mind. once you get past that, you'll be a little more creative and add our own stuff.
no ones making a fool of them selves when they cover music they like, youtube is fludded with talented musicians who are tributing there fave bands. nothing wrong with that.
"Fine, if you don't want to watch them, just hit that little red x in the corner."
Pardon me sir, but you put this on the internet, so you're gonna hear both positive and negative comments, just like you will in real life. You're playing was good, the choppiness of the video was annoying. I wouldnt say you kickass, because there are thousands of us that can play that(or anything in drop D for that matter).
Ok, I know I won't hear positive comments all the time.. but that's not the point, the point is, is that if that guy doesn't want to watch my vids, why bother telling me he doesn't want to watch it. Same goes for in real life, why bother coming up to me and telling me that he didn't want to listen to me play music when he could've just walked away? There's no point.
if ur brother dosent want to hear you playing punk him right in the nose because when tool or a tool song is being playing everybody gotta shut up and let it end it
Rrrrrrrrrr....Im tired of all these covers. You should do your own thing. I dont know about anyone else, but I dont care if people can play The Patient. IVE HEARD IT BEFORE!!! Do your own thing. I can play covers too, but I dont put them all over youtube.Your awsome at guitar dude. Id really like to hear something YOU composed. Sorry for the negativity. Im just tired of seeing all these duetchebags video taping themselves playing cover songs all over youtube.
Fine, if you don't want to watch them, just hit that little red x in the corner. I do have my own stuff, but if I'm gonna show people, it's gonna be at a gig, not on the internet (yeah, it may eventually appear on the net many, many months after I gig, but not straight away). Some people like to watch these vids because it helps them learn it themselves. Personally, I don't care what they watch it for, if at all, but if it makes them happy, fantastic. Thanks anyway though..
I do alternate pick. But if I find something more comfortable to pick downwards, why change it? It doesn't affect my sound at all. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Thanks anyway.

Ok you are a good guitar player( probably better than me!) But its a little annoying when I search for a Tool song to see how someone plays a part so it can help me, and I see you on there everytime. We know you know how to play Tool songs ok. You dont need to post a thousand videos of yourself on here. Remember these arnt even your songs. Nor will you ever be as good as Adam(not trying to be mean on that comment). But I do say you play good attempts of Tools songs...
Dude.. You want to see how people play the songs. I'm a person, I'm doing exactly what you want. I've posted about 14 or so videos. Compare that to opiateofthemasses' 33 videos. I want to know: What the hell are you complaining about?
I do write my own stuff. I don't focus on perfecting it, I've just learned the songs and i'm sharing them with the world. I don't see what's wrong with learning someone else's song and playing it for people. Does that mean you then hate all cover bands, whether they are band specific, genre specific or era specific? Your justification is wrong.
yah minion c'mon. if the guy can play TOOL songs, let him share them. other people may actually WANT to watch this dude's covers, you aren't the only person watching videos dude. not trying to be mean either.
You'r great. Some Tool fans like Toolminion try to be something theyre not and also think they know better than everybody what their (tool) music is about. They try to show off with who knows the most (ignorant and arrogant bastards.) I think you should keep it up and do whatever you want. Great video :)
pretty good, but i think you may have missed a note at the end of the intro. You kind of have a tendency to rush your timing, as you did on the lateralus video (i watched this second). but stil great!
Part of it may be the video skipping. If not, then you're probably right, I know my timing's not perfect. Can you give me a time reference with that note you think I missed?
Its not the intro, its after the first lyrical progession, but now that i watched it again the tape may have skipped. one quick hammer on that maybe due to the chorus he's using like i said.
Not bad, not Breathetaking but not bad. But that guitar has soo many pickups it looks funny IMO (in comparison to my 2 pick up SG) Nonetheless is was pretty solid.
Good job, could you tell me how you make that really short sound on the first part and through the verses? Maybe I sound like an idiot, but I am really bad at guitar because I just started. I guess I dont know how you make the notes end so short. Anywho, good job man.
I assume you're talking about the artificial harmonics. If that's what you're talking about, you move your thumb and forefinger up closer to the end of the pick and when you pick the string follow through with the side of your thumb and lightly touch the string with it. Practice this on the 7th fret of the G string, that's probably the easiest place for it. And once you get it, start moving your picking hand up and down the string to get different harmonics. Hope that helps. And thanks!!
Oh and by the way, make sure you've got your guitar on bridge pickup (pickup setting closest to the bridge), not neck pickup (pickup setting closest to the neck/fretboard), it's harder to do it on neck pickup, it's possible, but harder.
Jimmah01, could you please send me a link of the tabs you use because cant find tabs from the 2:30 - 3:30 part. Great job and thank you in advance m8!
It's an Ibanez 450S... Or S450... (Written as 450S on the headstock). Either way, that's what it is. They're no longer in production. They don't have them on the Ibanez website, but they have the 470S, but it's very different.

K. In all seriousness, forget about the choppiness, you're actually a pretty good guitarist. You play pretty clean
