probably a talent show or battle of the bands or somethin....trust me ive played for my school once or twice and i got offers to do it again but i broke my finger the day before a freakin gig and the doctor told me i couldnt play or it would screw it up more :) passed up 3 shows for my stupid digit
I cant believe what i just saw! Zakk may have been a little bit faster back then? Wow i feel so small,im selling everything i got schmuck it, why bother!!!
Great stuff, Berserker! Zakk was a bad ass even then. do you know how long he'd been playing at the time? I know he got extremely good in a relatively short period of time.
Noctif3r, it's possible to do harmonics by tapping and not keeping the finger onto the fretboard, but just giving it a little whip. The technique is unsurprisingly called tap harmonics =P
zakk is a kick ass guitarist and he's the hardest worker in the industry so when u hear some dumb ass pop-star who probaly doesn't even sing anyways complain about his/her job Zakk should spit in their face's
awesome, not my favorite guitarist, i like EVH, but he is damn good at shredding. well, so is eddie...But there is someone at my school that i bet will get noticed.
I find it very funny that no one can talk about zakk wylde without bringing up dimebag darrell. I've always found Wylde a bit obnoxious and while finding dime very warm and humble. go figure. At least i know he was like that in HS now.
this is after highschool, because in a guitarone interview zakk said he got his first les paul, a gold top, as a graduation present from his parents. and yes, he said he played all night and slept at school.
o my god that was intense. he had so much chop at that time going for like 10 hours a day! he is still fucking flawless but that behind the back and teeth shit! nutty, absolutely nutty. i wonder if he watches this or any other of his videos? anyone have a clue??
This guy was born with fingers of God or something! He's fuckin amazing!! And did that guy say he was gonna pull his hair, somewhere around 3:20 or something?
if you want to sond like that pratice a lot of pentatonic scale or add the blue note and your on your way and pinch harmonics that's it all day and some bare chords peace
zakk wylde or jeff is from jackson, new jersey he used to date a freind of my family he did practice alot he was i think started on piano and then went on to guitar i'll have to ask karon and this isn't high school he had short hair so i'm guessing this is after graduation...
Holy Fucking Shit he was amazing even as a teen. Amagine the amount of pussy he got playing the way he did in high school. I almost said lucky man but he worked fucking hard and still does to be able to play the way he does. He shows how detication, practise and a true love for guitar can turn you into a guitar hero. Zakk is the man. SDMF
Love the clicky funk thing the best . I also really am digging those Marshall late 70s heads. I think they are Superleads it looks to be. A little blurry. Great vid. Thanks for posting this . This is why YOutube is youtube!~
It's amazing how he can do all of that and play it without making one mistake after only playing for maybe two years (he started at fifteen).
