Nile - Papyrus containing the spell... Guitar Intro

[Kardot]

DAMN! That's some incredible left-hand finger economy of movement!

[Mechansus]

The tone is not that great, but awesome playing! Very good! \m/

[MrNinjapenguin666sk8]

what kind of guitar is that

[VinterVandring]

Is your 7 string a baritone by any chance? If so, that would mean it's defult tuning is B Standard. That would also make the strings pretty tight and nice to play on rather than a normal 25" neck, right? Just wondering, because I'm thinking on getting a baritone very soon. I would love to play in D Standard in the octave below.

[MetalFan141]

Nice!

[TheOrangeFondler]

this looks sped up to me

[YsSeLiTa]

How can I play this in bass? I can't find a tab ):

[metalheadrocker1994]

you going to try and audition for the bass spot for Nile

[YsSeLiTa]

Yes I am haha I can play that! But I don't have any tab ):

[000metalhead000]

Wrong distortion, but you play well :P

[neonfox3]

wow.......

[pendehassen]

shit, i don't know how you guys do that!

[swedishmetalupyours]

Yeah nice done! HAve I right if I say that that was harder to remember all the notes and play it fast than it was to really play it? you know? Looks like there is no hard " teqnique" Am i right?

[BlackEarth]

WHat tuning do you have the guitar in? Did you just drop the lowest string down to A? or did you tune the whole thing down a step?

[endoftheline9]

drop the low b to a and the g string to f#

[ADEZK]

[Corpseslider]

[oddestofodds]

Nice Krisiun shirt...another impeccable death metal band!

[mtlhd86]

I dont know if you already knew, but krisiun came out with a new album.

[oddestofodds]

Yeah dude! :D Southern Storm is one of my favorite albums. Krisiun never cease impressing me. It's shit like that that gets me up in the morning.

Horns high!

[Rezomn666]

Isn't that guitar a Ran???

[Acent2]

Yes,Its a 7 string custom Invader

[Rezomn666]

niiiiiiice!

[EnterTherapy]

the reason it sounds so high is because it in normal tuning...

Nile tunes to Drop A.

Extremely low tuning.

Its the tuning I play in.

[sCorpse666]

My tuning is BEADGBE which makes no big difference here to a drop a tuning.

You just have to play power chords on the low b string instead of using the baree with your index finger. Compare it to the original recording - same pitch.

Cheers

[Astralsreams]

@EnterTherapy i know this was posted a while back but Drop A is just the 7th string drops one step but on a six string (witch nile uses) is just tuned A E A D G B

[KoKaTa]

goood...only if you didnt speed it up...that is why it sounds so high...

[GodinSDXTguitars]

moron

[MoonUnitLatina]

LOL you're an idiot...it's normal speed.

[S3bz3r0]

stupid, he's playing only of the guitar parts, he can't play the two, so you don't hear any harmony from the guitar that plays the lower guitar part

[avbthree]

Something doesnt look right with this video...

[MustaineV]

not bad, i actually think it's pretty accurate, did it by ear?

[sCorpse666]

Thanks! I tabbed it first to find the right fingerscale to do it at high speed, then recorded it.

[MustaineV]

Can you send me / or post the tab, i know it's silly to ask cuz everyone will. but i really mess up the hammer-on part at the end so i need a guide.

[atwarwiththem]

Pretty good, keep on practicing until you can nail the whole damn thing. Keep it up

[6iron6maiden6]

awesome, just your amps sounds weird.

[sCorpse666]

It´s not even a "amp"...it´s a CRATE GX15R combo, haha...good enough for home practice though.
