U2 Ultraviolet (guitar sherm911)

[dhide14]

thanks for ruining my ears with this shit

[Tura750]

Great!!!

[JCReaP]

You strum too much, you don't need to strum all that much because the delay does the rest

[lm035]

@JCReaP I disagree, the way he's performing the song here is perfect!!

[darkvadortonpere]

thats a very good cover, i like it

[IrishManJT]

Excellent !!!

[MegaTrainspotter]

All you folk who gave this the thumbs down? TURN UP YOUR HEARING-AIDS?

[DaveXanderBass]

dude, amazing

[paddy9i99]

One of my favourite U2 songs ever. Simple!

[Ireland61290]

Sherm, this is just amazing. I loved every second of it.

[kmaatja]

well done...appreciate it!

[MegaTrainspotter]

my fav u2 song...sherm you have nailed it ....

[quietandaction]

well that about settles it for me, I would'nt feel so bad now if EDGE was not able to play for a while with U2 cause this guy SHERME could fill in for him very nicely of course he would need to bring his own hat. keep up the good work, rock on!!

[MegaTrainspotter]

HOW GOOD IS THIS GUY?.....AMAZING.

[sushbone]

Hi Sherm, wow your version is probably the most impressive one here on youtube!!. Can you please post how you play the up/downstrokes of the main riff? I think yours sound very authentic! I play it that way:

D | . | D | U | D | U | . | U | . | U | . | U | D | U | D | U

[uskiat]

dude, very well done... keep on rocking...

[alcesto59]

[WatchingViking]

whats great about the best u2 songs is that they allow you to escape reality for a brief moment and merge with the beauty of the music.

[KoalaBearWarrior]

[FeceMcGee]

hey very nice work! one of my favorite U2 songs but I could never play it... I dont have the endurance to play those muted chords for 4 minutes lol.

Where did you get the instrumental for this? This sounds like it's in the original key as opposed to the other instrumentals..

[FeceMcGee]

i mean backing track...

[spikelive]

[miklasek1]

Sherm to evidentne skutočne vie.. :o) Málokto vie zen tvuk tak vyšperkovať ako Edge a Sherm je k tomu sakra blízko.. :)

[windew]

[atowndisp24]

Do you find that all of the sweat rolling down your arms and onto the strings helps with that nice deep sound?

[Sherm911]

That sweat comment was placed there by a smartass co-worker of mine. LOL

[oharasha]

Hi Serm911 - just found your excellent U2 covers - Can you tell me what setup you use (eg for The Fly and Bad???) - I would like to try to get closer to the sound you are getting - very good. Regards. Shane

[bassingtons]

Ciao cheers!

[67588wolf123]

nice, we have the same guitar ;)

[mkutz007]

Hey Sherm. Its Mike here. This is my new youtube name. Thanks again for your help with Ultraviolet. Im just about to start posting videos so keep on the look out. I really think I have developed a good sound for this song. my only trouble is my timing with the hammerons during the chorus. Its not exactly a very hard hammeron, but its one of the coolest sounding parts of the song. You get that feeling when you hear it too, but the timing has to be right or it just doesnt cut it. any advice?

[mrosco009]

to anyone else that might be able to help me find the backing track for this song, or even send it to me, I'd be so gratefull. My email is mkutz007 at hotmail dot com. Sherm, you the man. I know you can help me here. Please light my way

[mrosco009]

Do you turn your guitar down for this one?

[mrosco009]

HEY SHERM. im a big fan of your videos. I have been looking for this ultraviolet backing track for some time now. Could you pease tell me where i could find it. I would appreciate it so much!! And keep blowing me away with your stuff.  Just awesome!

[moakley]

the edge has really let himself go

[jjcoldplaygirl]

sheet music?

[Hadontken]

Encore!

[bottleracket]

Have you ever tried the song WIRE from Unforgettable. Pretty cool guitar on that one..

[U2fanatic79]

Your guitar playing is excellent, and thanks again for providing the guitar for my cover of this song.

[excinderellachick]

Sherm you rock!! Every night you keep my husband occupied for hours and he studies what you are doing consistently. Thanks for sharing the wealth!!!

[Slider68tg]

Great Tone from a Sweet Axe!

[janezjansa77]

I saw many edge covers on you tube.

No doubt, you are the the best.

How about making a band ? :)

[mrosco009]

I agree. I have seen many u2 tributes too, and the guitarists areent anywhere near as good as you

[UnixStudios]

awesome

[unym]

Super!

You know that u r one of the best.

[arrowayes]

By the way, I personally prefer your version. (and I do really like wannabetheedge is awesome)

[arrowayes]

Fantástico! 6/5

[selecktabo]

AH ,Light My Wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.....Brilli­ant..What a sound... Anyone know where this is available in sheet or tab.....

[baldyman123]

any chance you could let me know where you get the backing track for this mate? i really wanna have a stab at it

[fylyp]

Terrific tone

Great playing

You had me rediscovered this tune

Thanks

Wish I could play that good

[u2zoostation]

I liked, and i hope to make my own cover of this great song... you have a good sound mate...

[baldyman123]

love this...spot on....you and wanna be the edge really are the u2 masters of youtube...

[migueledge]

Your play it´s excellent and your sound perfect. With a stratocaster sound good y play it with my strato, check my cover

[U2fanatic79]

Awesome as usual! I was wondering when you were going to post another U2 cover, and luckily you picked a great song! Can't wait for you to post more...

[Zoolander7711]

Awesome! Your tone is so good. Love it!

[Fenx87]

I was hoping you'd cover this song. Great job!

5 stars

[TheSpider690]

Happy to hear from you after your hiatus. I've checked your profile each day to see if you've posted! Your tone is AMAZING; very raw sounding. It sounds like the tone Edge would have used had this song been recycled on the Vertigo Tour. Awesome job! Could you please cover With or Without You? I think several would be interested to hear your version.

[Sherm911]

I can't give an adequate thanks. You must have the U2 'ear' all serious fans have because as soon as u said it I realized, my settings are a little slushy just like some songs in the Vertigo tour. I think you're exactly right. I didn't even realize it. Lotta GREAT covers of this song on Youtube, I'm blown away by them.
