[GamesAndMusic2009]

[slashthebestone]

[andr3wbr1an]

[tkmafkng]

I hoped so.

[andr3wbr1an]

[motleycruevancouver]

Fuck yeah man. AWESOME!

[iemeguitarist]

great cover

[MarkArdisson]

oh sorry I found it, I had not read informations of your video..

[MarkArdisson]

pretty good job, which tune of guitar do you use for this song ?

[RYANN36]

I think he plays in A, because he is playing with a bottleneck

[1960gibsonguitar]

do you know what guitar slash used on the 92 tokyo version of this

[tkmafkng]

That was Travis Bean TB 1000.

[Shelbones01]

i guess this is 1/2 step down cause its slash lol

[Slashfan90210]

open g

[SoulOwner93]

holy!!! how many guitars do u have, dude?! thats many!

[Josheph90]

i have a question why your melody maker have the shine the original doesnt have it ??? i wanna buy one

[tkmafkng]

This Melody Maker was customized. But I think there are some Melody Makers painted like this.

[faudition]

well I`m argentinian so my english it`s goin to sound pretty bad!but I don`t wanna miss the oportunity to tell this detail..I cover this song with a Travis Bean TB1000 Standard and it`s sounds just like if you were listening the album!

But with that fingers man,whatever..hahaha just my opinion.

PS:want to take advantage of this space to recommend you people to listen to pappo, Fito Paez & charly garcia!

well just that =) thanks!!!

[olires]

I'm so jealous of your Travis Bean. I really want one of those.

[bonesenruben]

that's no Travis Bean it's a Gibson Melody Maker ;)

[olires]

I was replying to Faudition, who said that he'd got a Travis Bean. Keep up!

[bonesenruben]

oh oké...sorry

[rockerma]

jajaja !!!.... me mato lo tuyo !... recomendandole q de los guns pase a fito paez o charly garcia !!!....dejate de joder man !

[faudition]

flaco nadie dijo que pase de los gnr a charly/fito...si a vos no te da para escuchar a mas de una banda en la cabeza es tu problema,pero no hables huevadas!!.charly es uno de los mejores rockeros que tuvo la argentina te guste o no,chupala...

Slash grabo un tema con paulina rubio porque dijo que el tema le gustaba,anda a decirle que se deje de joder!!andaaa

[rockerma]

che pasiva no te pongas nerviosa !!!.... te dejo escuchando mariposa tecnicooloorrr !!.... no te irrites ....jaja !... besala !

[iemeguitarist]

great great great!

[lesinny]

That was a beautiful cover.  pure talent

[olires]

Excellent! This is such a refreshing change from those who play the album version in the "background" so that you can't hear their playing.

Good stuff.

[mrmagic1989]

i got one too man some guitar for the money they don't the les paul melody maker anymore its just a gibson melody maker now with a p-90 and a single coil like the original one!where as the this one just has a p-90 but in his case a humbucker of some sort?and yeh what pups you using?

[davi1203]

veeery very fuckin' godd men.....

[ranger1944omaha]

I'd like to make my melody maker into one like this, do you think a Slash seymour-duncan pickup will do the job? ;)

[FinalSkyz]

What amp it is ?

Its the lead canal of the amp ?

[MeaningXOfXFear]

dsl401

[tkmafkng]

This is not DSL401. This is line recording. See FAQ in my channel. Thanks.

[ranger1944omaha]

This is amazing, as always! could you post some photos of the melody maker up close on imageshack or something? no offence, but I don't quite get what the video description set. Amazing Tone, Amazing Sound, this is f...ing perfect! You've got a fan here. Greets from Poland.

[tkmafkng]

Thanks. You can see the detail of this guitar in Thank you 500 subscribers video. Please check it out.

[M30N0]

[mire101]

hi man!

one time, well done for this video but can you play "farewell ballad" by Zakk Wylde, i can give a backing tracks, sorry for my bad english

[tkmafkng]

Thanks but I can't play it. I like Zakk but he's not my style.

[MayhemStricken]

hey, have you ever thought about covering hendrix? slash is highly influenced by him

[tkmafkng]

I think so, too. I play some Jimi's song but they are not exact copy at all.

[MayhemStricken]

cool. what songs can you play?

[tkmafkng]

I like Purple Haze, Voodoo Chile, Manic Depression and Hey Joe.

[Kenny00077]

dude that's amazing i love the tone you get with the slide

[tkmafkng]

Thanks.

[darogunner]

AMAZING!! I WANT ATTITUDE! JAJAJA, anyway, i love both!

[tkmafkng]

Thanks, but I can't play the song because I've never played the songs in Libertad album.

[techdeckin2day]

[blmh1959]

[tkmafkng]

Thanks.

[techdeckin2day]

[tkmafkng]

This guitar has original pickguard. It's black one so it cannot be seen in this video.

About set up, please read the video description.

[nagatobmc33]

[maorefrati]

[tkmafkng]

[thebesthippy]

another amazing cover. well done!

[tkmafkng]

Thanks a lot!

[lzvrsam]

Amazing!!

as usual!

[tkmafkng]

Thanks!!

[LedRoseShredder]

Nice, looks like the melody maker from Tokyo 1992. Also the sound itself! 5/5. I just love this song, so bluesy yet hard rockish

[tkmafkng]

Thank. Slash used Travis Bean for slide playing while GNR. And now he uses one humbackered black Melody Maker for slide playing. I wanted a Travis Bean but it was very hard to get so I chose this one...

[GuitarBone78]

Really enjoying your videos! But a small question.. When you upload videos within just a few days: Do you learn every song from scratch, or do you know them from before, and now just recording them and putting them on YouTube!! Love it anyways! Looking forward to your next one already! :o)

[tkmafkng]

Thank you for your comment. I've learned so many GNR songs before. But sometimes I've forgotten some part or some solos. So, at first, I made backing tracks and played Slash's part 3 or 5 times if the song is short and remind how the song goes. Then I roll the camera and play. Some long long songs like Civil War or Estranged, I play just 1 time before recording because I get tired :D

[YourMomZorz]

great cover, and nice melody maker

[tkmafkng]

Thanks a lot.
