U2 - One

[Skommm]

Hi,

Is it preset of modfactor "rotary" or is it your custom set?

And same question about timefactor...

I have try to learn :D

[Danycastlerock]

Wooooooow Me encanto tu versión :)

[marc12marc]

Great cover.. I usually use 465ms for the outro you have at 03:00.. do you mind sharing your setting ?

[bloc22]

Wow so so so GOOD!!!!!!

[edgarutube]

Great stuff, watched a few of your videos, think they're all good. I'm trying to get the "Bad" sounds right on my Timefactor, can you provide the settings you use?

[MartinGuitarLover1]

I really like that backing track. Nice job

[U2Tumble]

You're ONE very good player!!

[dosbottom]

ONE LOVE U2

[swervinirvin05]

That's the most amazing cover I've seen yet on here. Nice job.

[Macconator2010]

Try Zooropa

[Macconator2010]

Nice, is that a small snippet of the U2 Unchained Melody cover, if so you should have kept playing.

[arsan28]

Heeeey I like it Alot!!! Congratulations!!!, if you dont see the video, it seems lik is the Edge playing, very good work and I LOVE U2 Im a big fan of them!!!! and this song is one of my Favorites, Very nice!!!!!

[Diketparkour]

You are awesome.

[pibesancho]

clap, clap, clap, Aplausos!!!!!!

[spidernatclip]

Is there any chance you could give out the details of the effects used, more specifically the delay settings?

[gwpaints]

Hi, amazing,what is the delay tempo for the second delay in the 3:00?

[becksfreek777]

I CANT FIND A DECENT TAB OF THIS!!! WHERE DID YOU GET IT?? or did you play it by ear

[Skommm]

Ай молодца :)

[theedge269]

Fantastic. I'm just about to buy one of those guitars. My first non-Strat. I'll be checking back in for some tips.

[progrockertom]

great cover, I hate these people who slag off the Edge, his sound is so unique he doesn't need to sweep pick his ass off

[aworld4sale]

Magnifique cover !

[bluelink113]

tab?

[Netlocd]

12 people dragged the past out into the light.

[Doomnationcovers]

Another question... what is the pedal you are using to switch all the effects, it´s a kind of mixer or what??

[Doomnationcovers]

I have a question... I need to know what do you think abt. the line 6 dm4 pedal, I´m thinking about buy one, but I´m not sure about it... I usually play hardrock and metal, Is this a good option???

[donottawaguitar]

very smooth smoother than a actual smoothy

[Mzzy1979]

awesome! what year is the custom?

[AmbientGuitarSounds]

What digital recorder are you using there? Good stuff :)

[Se7eNDaYBlueS]

Best equipment.

[corbykissler]

Awesome version a

[joaocoelho144]

[DantonDK]

[aeqvvs]

Congratulations from Brazil

[dariomas]

Muy bueno

[U2360i]

great



[SiliconSicilian]

I like the extended blues feel that you transitioned into. Nice cover.

[sparx65]

Excellent mate, really enjoyed that.

[Agga1904]

the les paul is awesome.

[wolves4eva00]

Superb Version Well Done matey

[REDTVCanada]

Simply brilliant. Great work.

[MrAlbinoPanther]

Is that a Fender Toronado body?

[u2john316]

@MrAlbinoPanther The guitar in the background is the body of a Fernandes Native Pro.

[Janitzioy]

Bravisimo!!....Nice sound!!...and well played!...:D



[VERVIDEOS02]

GOOOOOD 

[Rigbybigdog]

Well was in to minds about a new amp, well 5 minds actually. The Vox Ac4 being one of them.

Sold!

fantastic playing friend, right now off to the shop :-)

[DJceci98]

piango di invidia delle tue pedaline e della tua chitarra:'(

[felipedelimao]

Bravo !! :-)

[coneful]

whats your rotary effect parameter?... nice cover...

[niacin155]

this song is verry verry good

[cantevenspellpoker]

hey did broke that guitar neck?

[u2adrian1000]

I think you have some of the best u2 covers on youtube! Keep up the great work!

[soldatoryan]

Great Job :D i used your video for learn this song! Thank you so much! :D

[niacin155]

i like this video

[bigtimpalmer]

Superb version, love the way you interpret the verse, touch too much delay in the mix on the chorus for me but the bridge and outro again wonderfully played.

[gleisongaia1988]

muito bom mesmo!

original!

[U2Bonovox101]

You are the BEST guitarist (apart from Edge, of course) I've heard. Thank you so much, and, btw, do u do guitar lessons? i cud use sum

[StringBender567]

pure awesome!!!

[jdury]

I have listened to 3:00 to the end about 100 times in a row. Perfect tone my friend. Great job and thanks for sharing! Inspiring stuff.

[fangerhope68]

nice cover!

[FelipeGT2]

This 10 dislikes are 10 Justin Bieber fans!!!

[HelterSkelterSOR]

can you actually get those weird 70's humbucker pickup covers that edge has on his cream LP? the ones that show the pickups but hav a barrier around them. i can never find them anywhere seperate :/

[u2john316]

@HelterSkelterSOR You are referring to Schaller ring covers. Basically, you would remove the covers off the TTops and add the Schaller ring covers around the edges.

[HelterSkelterSOR]

@u2john316 thats the one. you should get some for your les paul

[u2john316]

@HelterSkelterSOR Not for this one I don't. I want to keep it in its original state. I might modify another one if I ever get the chance to own another....

[u2saul98]

how many msc do you use for delay? @u2john316

[StringBender567]

Is the guitar tunning in standard or in D? Perfect cover by the way!

[AdamDonoval]

@StringBender567 standard

[chrisfender76]

hello you'll have the tab thank you

[commodorobar]

If Edge listen to this, he'll stop playing guitar! :DDDDD

[babysmockey]

@commodorobar no he would not...

[nuages76]

Hi, you tried to connect to Vox AC4 the Line6 M13 Stompbox ? How is the sound ? Thanks and compliments for your performance :-)

[emilija12578]

Really amazing!!! Bravo Robertoooo!!! :))

[elpajaro27]

can you tell me how to get the final solo tabs live version???

[inesitaines94]

AMAZING!

[RealReado]

Hi Gerry - another great video. Would you be kind enough to let me know what your settings are on the Modfactor for the main rotary speaker verse sound?

I can't seem to get it sounding right and I also have Gibson LP, AC4, SD1 etc so shouldn't be a million miles away. Also, which channel do you use on the AC4?

Regards

Wayne

[BasAnastasia]

excellent. fuckin awesome! how i wanna play like you....

[tiesje93]

8 people think they're better than edge..

[Qoooba95]

awesome nothin else to be said

[TIJSNL]

can anyone tell me in what tuning this is played? thanks a lot

[mailnetanel]

Wow!!

It's a very good version of a very good song!

[guibr18]

Your tone is absolutely amazing! I have a Pod X3L, a Pod HD500, a couple of pedals, a Laney LV200 and a Variax 700 and some others guitars, but i can't get this crystal tone with my rig, i'm thinking of buying a nice amp since i play U2 a lot! Will the AC4TV be a nice choice, i'm plaining not to spend so much, but someday i'll get an AC30, do you think the ac4tv will do a nice work? And what about the volume, since it only has 4W? Thanks a lot!

[guibr18]

Sounds fantastic!

[TheResnick80]

Nice Job man! I really enjoyed watching this :)

[MultiDave4321]

Great job!

[missplaya97]

la chanson est tres bien reprise j'aaddoorree !!! fanne de u2

[1976enero14]

Bravo !!

[hanzu83]

Hi, your sound is great!!

I'd like to join a u2 tribute band. What effects do you think I neED TO START?

i MUST TO KNOW HOW MANY AND WICH THEY ARE, TELL ME WICH EFFECTS ARE IMPORTANT TO CREATE U2 SOUND PANORAMA OF THE FIRST ALBUMS AT LEAST. PLEASE I NEED YOUR HELP!!!

i'D LIKE TO BUY A POD HD 500 BUT I DONT KNOW IF IT IS APPROPRIATE, INSTEAD OF BUYNG A LOT OF SINGLE PEDALS WICH ARE TOO EXPENSIVE: MY BUDGET ISN'T SO GREAT.

[flyhi94]

@hanzu83

The line 6 m13 is pretty good for U2 songs. It even has shimmer. Mick has some videos of himself using that. A vox ac15 or ac30 is needed to get his chimey sounds. The Edge used an Ac30 at every show U2 has ever played. The Edge's main guitars from he 80s were a Gibson Explorer(You can get an epiphone and change the pickups) and a Fender Stratocaster(mim are okay but I prefer G&L Strat personally). Not cheap to be in a U2 tribute. Hope it helps.

[sghrd]

Very very good!!!

[domfov]

Wow, I've really enjoyed this one... Again! I swear, half of these views since 2010. are mine! :D

Beautiful rendition!

[andretoyo]

Man Great tone! I wish I can get close to your sound someday...

[bittren4464]

can you tell me what pedals you used please

[u2john316]

@bittren4464 Each pedal is mentioned in this video.

[chanelock01]

hey u2 john,

can you tell me what pick ups are in your custom, are they standard,57's, 59's

I just purchased a epiphone explorer and epiphone lp custom would like my guitars to sound better than they are with the crap pickups in them.

Thanks again u2john

[u2john316]

@chanelock01 These are Stock T-Tops that came with this '79 Custom LP...

[vgw1971]

for home use, band and small clubs will 2 ac4s cut it? dude, please send me your pedal board set up what is needed and not needed for U2. again, great job!

[u2john316]

@vgw1971 Thanks. I would consider a 15W amp instead of the AC4 for small venues. I personally use the AC15H1TV head and cab live. My AC30 is not used as much these days. Also, my rig is in Mono not Stereo - the second amp is just for Shimmer tones. Check out Mick's channel (mick3b1g) as he gets great tones out of a small ZT Lunchbox amp.

[NintendoSinceBirth1]

@vgw1971 for the price of 2 ac4s you can get an ac15 which is great for clubs and right now if you buy an ac15 or ac30 at musiciansfriend you get an ac4 for free

[Marcel3540]

can u help me? :) i wanna go to your awesome site, and wanna download this backingtrack, but there just open a player .... how can i download? :)

[prutsikas]

Amazing man, really amazing....Congratulations on your effort, its so close to Edge's playing!!

[chanelock01]

Hey u2john,

i just wanted to say how much inspiration you have given me with respect to your amazing guitar playing,i hope one day that i'd be as good as you, I wonder if the edge has seen you playing, and wonder what his thoughts are about you would be?

I find your clips very informative and helpful.

I listen to your guitaring every day,it's like a drug!

I can't belive there are people out there criticizing you about not being a original artist.....crazy!

Thanks u2john......you ROCK!!!!!!

[vgw1971]

Bravo!

[TheSchoolsux345]

great tone! most small tube amps ive seen do not respond well to humbuckers, its a shame. but i think im gonna get this beast of an amp to use with my les paul!

[EkPuZ77]

Hi, could you tell me what's the name of your footswitch ?

thx

[philotze]

Hey dude, did you use the amp's breakup or...?

[Marcel3540]

man. this cover is just love, and the best one in youtube ! :)

[sahlertz8]

Hey! great cover!

I was wondering, where did you get that great Les Paul? :)

I cant find one like that one?!

Great sounds, like all your covers, and your demos!

[coppergimp]

Very sweet tones mate.First class thanks for sharing.

[ninomatias]

fred

(ecuse me for my bad english i m french!!!)

[willwill42]

good job buddy

[w3b5t3rvg]

Nice tone, and beautiful LP :) I wish I could afford a Gibson LP

[irontuskman]

can you use a line 6 m9 to make the effects that you did>?

[u2john316]

@irontuskman yes :))

[123samrock]

Great!!

[Mak0wi3c]

Good job man! Really it's near perfect ;)

[kippenslager]

Can you give me the tabs?

[chapintex1]

well done at 3:00, what delay settings are you using?

[sillis75]

hey john, which effect setting is your dm4 using for this cover?

and, your volume pedal...active/passive/mono? thanks!

[defbri13]

excellant job.....sounded like i was at a U2 show and hearing this great song live!!!

[tomthebomb5725]

Hey great cover! Just wondering if the M13's modulation effects come close to the rotary effect of the modfactor?

[u2john316]

@tomthebomb5725 Thanks and yes the M13's rotary effects are very good too IMHO.

[coolkid2446]

You have no talent man!

Stop messing up other bands' songs.

Write ur own music. idiot

[u2john316]

@coolkid2446 Awww you are obviously upset because some of us called BS on you on another post when it was clear you don't play and simply criticise out of jealousy and immaturity. I do play my own stuff also but this channel is to share ideas on how to do some edge sounds with different equipment. But as I said before that is obviously too advanced for you to grasp.

[U2935]

@u2john316 You owned him lol

[deonal]

@coolkid2446 snot-nosed kid

[IwillFollowTheEdge]

beautiful!!

Could you tell us about rotary effect settings (depth, speed etc etc)

[TheClassicQ]

Nice Job!

[deonal]

you stole the show tonite ( viewed others)

[LinkAtGun]

this is very cool, the edge is my #1 musical inspiration realy

[PRISI0NER0123]

Very good cover man :D hey , what effect is the one ur using in 0:54 ?¿? , chorus?

[SingSai22]

@PRISI0NER0123

thats a rotary effect from his modfactor

[raoninery]

is this the  Vox AC4TV8 Tube Guitar Combo Amp ? great cover btw

[u2john316]

@raoninery It's the 10" speaker version.

[raoninery]

@u2john316 its sounds really great.. i just bought one, yesterday in ebay,

btw, listen my with or without you cover that i recorded at home.. i would be very glad with your opinion

[perronyone]

Hi it's very good, do you have the tabs? Please sendme thank you

[sega62s]

I guess you like delays, so do I, seems like we can't get enough of a good thing.

Good job, I was thinking of buying this little Vox amp.

Thanks

[kregconrad]

wow, great job, the sounds were fantastic, from another edge emulator

[mrkyt77]

i just got a dm4 what settings are u using

[maarcel12]

check out mine ! :D

[Jeef690]

Hi there! Love your videos. Is that the 10" or 8" version of the AC4?

[maarcel12]

this is like sex !!! awesome !

[MrJoemc1234]

Where did you get your guitar?

[joshuarugg]

what kinda pickups does edge use in his les paul? i have alnico 2 pro's in my les paul and i use an ac30. will this get me his basic tone? can you please help me out. thanks mate

[musicfamily]

awsome. Very accurate. thanks for the lesson.

[Motorcitymilo]

Screw the haters.... Good job man!

[Gael47nx]

Good ! look me =)

[qwerty54321879]

bad tone mate edge sounds much better. its a joke compared to edge

[maarcel12]

perfect !! and nice gibson les paul ! (:

[billmel1]

One of my fave U2 songs and this is just top drawer

[justmejonboy]

Very nice, could I please ask you what you are using to route / select your effects ? Is there some signal routing. Thank you, finally, do you like the AC4. Keep up the great work...

[david78480]

You say that you 're not playing notes perfect, but I love your version ! Thanks.

[voxmohr]

Fantastic job. Thanks for sharing this impressive piece. I've played this song myself for the past 20 years in many ways, always hungry to find out how the Edge actually plays it. Your approach is a really robust interpretation. Cheers.

[tiesje93]

never listen a better one.

[IwillFollowTheEdge]

holy jaysis. wonderful.

[KAVALID]

nice

[lowa91]

don't listen to the bad comments... I think they're just jealous^^.

I really like your cover, you've got a great tone! (I love your gear)

keep on rockin' ;)

[Shuzz30]

Very goog technic`s and sound, great job dude I like it!

[petertexas]

Great video, can you do this all also with the M13? Keep posting!

[petertexas]

Great video. Can you do all this effects with the M13 also? Keep posting

[patbreacadh]

The vibe is great in this, the feel is so there!!! The commitment to making the song live is genuine and artistically dead-on. I get chills listening to this. Interpreting U2 is not about being a sequencer, or mimicking every precise setting of Edge, it's about raising to the level of vibe Edge has going. And this gentleman here meets this requirement magna cum laudae. The spirit & feel, what Bono in an interview calls the "scent" of U2 is present here, really. Great work!

[Ragman72]

That's great stuff again!

Beside the good sound demonstration also a good tutorial

for everyone who wants to know how to play it.

Hats off again!!

[stirfrycomedy]

One of my favorite vids...

[greendayfan19]

dude this is so amazing keep up the good work!

[jag0918]

fucking amazing
