  • Good job man. How you learn the outro? 

  • awesome but do you mute wth the fingers on your picking hand for the upstrokes cuz it looks like it and im trying to learn sweeping at the minute ^^, cheers

  • @AshISMusicallyHungry dude play scales they get ur fingers prepared for sweeping!!!... trust me man!!! it really helps!!!

  • is that a strat strat sucks good cover tho 5 star

  • hey dude make a solo and sweep picking tutorial or something i watched another one and it just didnt make sense....urs sounded a lot closer than his did.

  • shit how often do u practice? im 9 months and half as good as u... i guess u could say ive SERIOUSLY started playing guitar since like february but then again id have 7 more months to go... how can i accelerate my guitar speed with sweeps and stuff... practice alot? check my vids

  • try a metranome!

    they work if you find a shred lick andgradually build up the speed you will find your playing improves fast

  • u been playing for a year! me too im almost as good as you but u can still kick my ass, and one quick question, did u change the sweep picking?

  • umm. . . why is there an argument about tapping going on???? i do alternate picking and it sounds just fine

  • amazin', as always...

  • dude your amazing everyone else can shut up

  • no its a bit of tapping an then it goes into a sweep

  • theres no tapping.

  • yea there is i have the song book u can barley here it in the song but is there

  • yep there is a tapping riff

  • not really a riff more of a 4 second long tap between 3-15 and 6-18

  • sweet.

  • good but isn't the last part tapping?

  • totally wrong, sweep picking or arpeggios, however your want to call'em but no tapping...

  • wtf are you talking about? Are you saying my playing was wrong or r u talking to the guy below about the tapping. And yea, there apprentally is tapping of the lower octaves of the notes i picked, in the tab out of guitar world i have, but i don't think syn even taps that part live ..

  • dude i was replying to the guy below, sorry i didn't press the "reply" button

  • and the only part i screwed up on the sweeping was the second arpeggio. The rest was good. And thoses arpeggio shapes are not wrong

  • Why would you ask for comments and things if you're expecting them all to be good then? I thought your shit was good. But to ask for comments and then contradict what the commenter says is a little pointless.

  • that didnt make sense.

  • killer sweeping at the end

  • The best I've heard so far, great job, I must admit, you're much better than me, I can only play it slowly, great job!

  • lefty!!

    youre really good, lol

  • also, anyone who think doesnt like a7x because they are 'commercial' has issues. if u havnt noticed, just because a band is famous, or more harshly put, "sold out" doesnt mean that they are bad. avenged sevenfold is one of the best bands today, and they deserve to be recognized, and not criticized for this. thankyou.

  • youre totally right. when a person is self taught, they realize certain aspects of guitar playing(such as techniques such as vibrato) at their own pace, which is best because it lets them develop their skills naturally. and i have to sya youre a very talented musician and you have a bright future ahead of you.

  • lol, of course it's possible. i've been playing guitar for 2 and a half months and i'm trying to do the outro to work on my sweep picking. But i have 4 years of alto sax playing to back up my hand coordination =]. and of course 1 1/2 hour practices every day lol. well sicfreak91 great job man. but when i'm sweep picking it seems easier when i roll my hand up and down with my picking. but whatever work for u man.

  • there's no way in hell you've only been playing for a year

  • yea, your rite.. i kinda been playing less then that, lol. Playing seriously at least. I say a year cause that when i got my guitar, the one i'm using, last christmas and for then till about a half a year, i wasn't into much lead stuff. Fuck, sweeping didn't even come till a couple months ago. More just learning about power chords and trying to get a decent tone out of my shitty 10 watt, lol.

  • So, that resent half year, i been seriously getting into music, like with notes, scales, techiniques, shit like that, and way more practicing. all self taught tho. Just a little reading in a guitar mag and some common sense. So yea, idk, i guess you can say its a year, but whatever ... or just don't believe me at all, lol

  • @sicfreak91 Nice Fender Starcaster, I got the same thing, but I can't play anything, so I play drums instead!

  • @fickstigure ive only been playing for a year to and i could play this solo too!!! its actually a full year this month!!! X]

  • a7x is my favorite band, and prob always will be, threw there good and bad times ill be listening to them! FUck off if you dont think the same

  • Let's all just thank A7x for bringing metal back into the mainstream, and if you want more technical (okay, ridiculous) sweeps check out Dragonforce. As for insulting people's musical tastes, no one cares what you think. The person obviously likes the band and you telling them that that band sucks will fall on deaf ears... on that note, Slipknot sucks a big one.

  • Yes, thank you.. I agree!

  • by the way.. this video is quite good, keep practicing!

  • I just took a look at Brythepie's profile and he is a big fan of commercial crap metal (nu-metal and metalcore). I shouldn't even bother arguing with him.

  • Wow, thats a bit of a sweeping statement of my music taste... if you read on it says 'and lots more but cant be arsed to name them all'.. whats the point in listing bands which most people wont even know?!

    And the reason im commenting on this vid is because i like A7X! you do it just do bring other people down.

    Its lame..

    Thank you and good night.

  • No, I'm trying to help him by guiding him in the right direction as far as guitar influences go.

  • If you want to actually become a good guitarist, start listening to good music not crap like AX7.

  • Rofl, you listen to slipknot so your opinion automatically doesn't count. In all seriousness, go listen to Morbid Angel or Death.

  • Oh yeah smart guy, who just because I have a Slipknot video in my favorites, does not mean I like them.

  • You are really sad... argueing because you are ashamed to admit what kind of metal you like, there are other genres out there u know!

    And having a artists video in your favourites generally does show you like them, "smart guy"!

  • Pretty much what he said.

  • Hey asshole, I only put that in my favorites so I could prove a point which is assholes like you are quick to judge people based on very little evidence and you're opinions should not be considered. So fuck you.

  • You're getting there, especially for only been playing for 1 year.
