Dire Straits - Money For Nothing - Cover (Riff)

[ILikeKiks]

What settings you got on the amp?

I got an MG15CD as well, and an ESP LTS M-50. Trying to learn this riff. :)

[AdrianValbula]

throw the pick dude!!,, this sounds better playing with your fingers!!

[purometal92]

Like a tu guitarra!!! io tengo la misma con unas EMG i andan al 100!

[CrankCase08]

Nah, you' weren't playing that. You were just miming. And you really need to relax and improve your posture.

[joaquin225]

@CrankCase08 dude, I was. It was the first time I had ever recorded a video and my volume was too low. It was also just a few months after I had started playing guitar. Even though the video is kinda shitty I won't delete it because it has almost 20,000 views hahaha. The video is two years old... watch the latest ones..

[dusch888]

@CrankCase08 Tell Billy Joe Armstrong to improve his posture... theres no such thing as correct posture

[Andries96]

Guitarplayback XD

[Chipadychuck]

Check my version ;)

[DoNotCheckMyProfile]

is it actually you playing the riff, or is it the backing track? im confused..lol

[iwanttoseeeverything]

try to remake the vid

[iwanttoseeeverything]

cool man

[bweazel]

Dude, turn down the actual song. You can't even hear your playing.

[NINI19951995]

nc t-shirt

[KeisukeKenobi]

I can't hear it well :p... Try without the backtracking

[Sekac94]

wow you are very good ... you played exacly like dire

[rickheyes0]

Good job, but I think you need a proper Les Paul, you're at the level

[joaquin225]

@rickheyes0 thanks man. i bought a new guitar, not a les paul though. it's an ibanez joe satriani 100

[rickheyes0]

@joaquin225 ahh It's a fantastic guitar. Hope you're enjoying it, I used to have the same but I did a straight swap for an American strat 60's reissue

[EranProductions]

@joaquin225

Ibanez is worse than this

[joaquin225]

@EranProductions I swear it isn't

[myguitarjustshat]

@joaquin225 that ibanez is mental its amazing - is this an epiphone les paul special ii? I heard theyre amazing value for money, but that ibanezx u got is awesome too

[joaquin225]

@myguitarjustshat yeah, it is a special ii, and think the ibanez is awesome too haha

[julsanification]

u obviously dont know nothing about guitars, and u guy, keep like this, just feel the music, if you dont feel it, even with the best guitar in the world u wont have any intention, and without intention thers no music!

[julsanification]

u obviously dont know nothing about guitars, and u guy just feel the music, keep like this u are good, but remember if u dont feel the music u dont have any intention, even with the best guitar in the world, without intention and expresion u cant say that u are making music!!

[julsanification]

[EranProductions]

@julsanification

"Obviously" I had many guitars in my life, one of them was an ibanez prestige and i can tell that ibanez guitars are good for heavy metal music ONLY

Right now i have a Standard Gibson les paul, which is way better than any ibanez i have heard

[Cadmiumboy]

@rickheyes0 it's proper enough. as long as it functions, that's all you need

[rickheyes0]

@Cadmiumboy Clearly you have zero Knowledge of Guitars if you think that

[Cadmiumboy]

@rickheyes0 woah dude, no need to get hostile, forreal. all I'm saying is that the guitar doesn't need to be perfect to be good. any good player can work around whatever imperfections a guitar may have. I own both the special II (project guitar) and a standard plus top, and even though the standard plus is built/feels/sounds better, I still play the frick out of my special II

[rickheyes0]

@Cadmiumboy Okay I apologise, but as I was saying, in the instance of the Les Paul, the Gibson runs rings around the Epiphone. Anyway its irrelevant now, considering he has an Ibanez anyway. I apologise for my hostile approach though.

[Cadmiumboy]

@rickheyes0 sall good bro. and I agree with the Gibson vs Epi issue. I'm actually more of a PRS guy (specifically the mccarty hollowbodies), but alas, they exceed my budget =/

[NeoHoshi]

I'm sure you're good but it would be nice to hear you play it :)

[Chicagoracer2]

ha im gonna do that with my explorer but i have to wait until christmas so im gonna to play it on my stratocaster ;)

[StevoMaido]

Is the special 2 better than the les paul 100?

[cheel83]

@StevoMaido They are actually the same thing only the 100 have few other features, they both have same pickups and such, flat top. The 100 have other features like pickguards, 2 volume and tone knobs, etc.

[DorkWithTheFork]

Do you like that guitar? I'm getting the same one in less then a month.

[Ijjigunzhack]

good man!

[T0rp4u]

Im gettin the vintage sunburst, but nice man

[RigorMortis203]

I will buy the same guitar! i play for 1 and a half year, that guitar is good?

[stupidkid1337]

Mark knopfler can lick my balls

[theoffspringrox77]

good job man, but try finger picking it sometime 5*

[joaquin225]

Hey, thanks for the 5*

But I was finger picking it :P

[theoffspringrox77]

oh , hard to tell haha, but yeah no prob good playing

[Snotlingfondler]

cant wait to get my special 2, in cherry sunburst too. nice playing

[Alexiiz10]

Very Good!! I love Guns N' Roses. I from Argentina!

[Zhaace]

Nice :)

[zakkwyldeverehrer]

80% comes from CD... it's cool how you play with your fingers (I do it the same and a pick would destroy the song).

But try to play all of the riff. sometimes your hand isn't on the board and there are tones played by mark...

But maybe I'm wrong. Turn up your Volume and down the CD, then we can hear.

[joaquin225]

It's true.

My volume was too low.

But if you listen carefully you can hear my guitar.

I played all the riff, except for the harmonics.

[dany4kin]

This is recognisably good, this is a really tough song to play. But you should really try and play it just on your own, if you're looking to find out how proficient people think you are. There is just a little too much of the original track in there. Play it through earphones if it helps for the timing. I think people will like it, not many who can play this well...

[joaquin225]

wow thank you :P

[CadillacMatt95]

Actually on the note that dany4kin said there are backing tracks available for free you can look for them on Google, nice playin though man I'm still tryin to get my fingerwork down

[MademoiselleLucija]

wow ur good

love your tee btw (:

[darkroronoa]

i like soooo much this riff and you played nice ;)

[whitemousee]

i can hear you with the original song. Its better to download some backing track.

[joaquin225]

I know, I tried to get some backing tracks, but they suck..

[timeofmylife1]

how did you get this tone?

[joaquin225]

My amp (Marhsall MG15CD) setting was:

Bass: 4

Contour: 7

Treble: 5

In my guitar (Epiphone Les Paul Special II)

The volume was at 10 and the tone at 0.

The pickup switch was down (treble).

But I got that sound with MY guitar and MY amp. I don't know if it will sound like that with your guitar and your amp... just try.

[joaquin225]

Oh.. and distortion was at 5 or 6.

[joaquin225]

AND, I didn't use a pick, I played with my fingers. That's important.

[timeofmylife1]

thanks i have the same amp =)

[ed18gar11]

I have a Epiphone les paul special 2 vinatage sunburst but you are a good player for your age like me im 11age but the guitar sounds better with your amp i think buy one marshall you can give me the price ?

[Esseister]

Guns n Roses 4 life! Yieha thats T-shirt ROCKS!!!

[CHEVYDUDE95]

your alot better than your guitar. Les Paul special II

[josefinarore]

[gaston916]

you suck .

aja pete soy manolete .

te la voy a robar la guitarra

[joaquin225]

jajajajaj

que gil :P

[Fendermaniak]

I recommend Digitech. I didn't knew the ME-30, but it doesn't look very good, and mustn't have COSM modulation, which is very useful x) I'm satisfied with mine, but digitech looks very good

[Fendermaniak]

The pedal is a Boss ME-50, it's good yes. The amp too, but I will change in a few months, the guitar is usual, but I love the sound xD

[Fendermaniak]

I play since 2003, but I stopped for some time. I play for real since 2006 x)

[Fendermaniak]

I'm portuguese xD But your english it's not bad, at all. The guitar playing is fine

[Fendermaniak]

You've done very well too :P

[hacetuondaa]
