For Stevie Wonder's Eye's Only- BMTH cover

[sosoprettypretty]

martin this is fucking SPECTACULAR.

[BL00D4NG31]

Please send me the tabs? :)

[thrashmasterz]

Turn down the volume in the music bro, I can't hear your guitar.

[G400martin]

@thrashmasterz it's actually balanced about 50/50 between the guitar and track. (you might have me in the bass range though)

but things tend to hide in the balance when you match intonation and articulation well enough. =)

[sk8eranthonygranata]

what tuning is this in?

[sk8orscream]

i just hit you up for the tabs. just lettin you know lol

[TeeJayC93]

nice job buds :)

[jarvisguitarmaster]

I just sent you an email on AOL about sending me the tabs : )

[SoulBirthGuitar]

Herman Li is cool!

[lunchbox118]

@SoulBirthGuitar No he isnt.

[SoulBirthGuitar]

THAT IS YOUR OPINION NOT MINE =D

and your not xD thats for sure

[lunchbox118]

@SoulBirthGuitar Well you just said Herman Li is cool. :| just that statement made you factualy less cool than me, how ever cool I am. Second no he isnt good, he speeds up his solo's and doctors them for the CD's. I seen 8 year old play through the fire and the flames. FACT

[G400martin]

Personally, I have no opinion on Herman Li, that was taken as a spoof from another video. But whatever the arguing about one Youtube user being cooler than the other, however Dragonforce records, or eight year olds playing Dragonforce parts does not pertain to this video, nor does it offer me any feedback. Please take this discussion elsewhere. =)

[BlackAmithyst08]

yay BMTH!!!

[preeves09]

do you still have those tabs bro?

[G400martin]

@preeves09

yes. shoot me an email and i'll reply with the file.

[BFMVrox123]

best cover of this song yet

[MySecretaryIsHot]

it was cool but just cut your hair

[G400martin]

@MySecretaryIsHot

hahahahahaha

[MySecretaryIsHot]

@G400martin no ofence xD

[G400martin]

@MySecretaryIsHot

none taken. this vid is almost 2 years old. i dont have long hair anymore anyways.

[Freebirdhomie66]

Hey i cant find you on aol!

[G400martin]

@Freebirdhomie66

im never on AOL/AIM. but if you want the tabs send me an email titled something involving BMTH and i'll attach em.

[seminol666]

maybe you could watch your video 1 or 2 or 3 times more and write a tab and then you can give it to all of us

so whats the deal???!!!

[G400martin]

@seminol666

whatttt?

[punkgothrocker]

Dude Herman Li is NOT cool

[Cybereaper7]

i can deffinitely can tell your playing it but baybe turn your speakers down or amp up?

[G400martin]

yeah, my sound setup was pretty basic. i didnt know anything about mixing or direct inputs at the time lol.

[2Anteater]

you learned this by ear or watev dude insane freakin insane and love the song too

[ChiiShredder]

it is pretty obvious that he actually played it correctly? who was bashing?! damn good man

[Dalairwarrior]

really awesome cover

[pansy954]

why u have

4 stars?

man your fucking awesome

10 stars man!

[jordandoan]

yo, what pedal do you use? and like what amp and all that shit

i wanna make my guitar sound like that lol

[G400martin]

well, this recording isn't really that great of an example of the tone i use cause my guitar is really quiet. but i use a boss, mt-2 metal zone, and my amp is a kustom 200 watt (more of a blues amp) and a mesa 4x12 rectifier cab. my advice to get good tone on most amps would be to keep your mids up around half. if you kill em, it basically mutes your guitar.

[sosham]

wow... how long have u been playing?

...and tab plz. any kind would be appreciated

[G400martin]

i had been playing for about 3 years at the time i believe. and send me a PM with your email and i'll send you my version of the tabs for this.

[TwitcHUndeaD]

Dood that was insanely good, you will really give tabs?

[G400martin]

@TwitcHUndeaD

yep. check out the video info.

[13link0ne82frever]

compare this to heartagramskater21

[imalisssssabitch]

heartagramskater21 was off time, he was going a little fast, but was still good haha

[G400martin]

haha, i don't really want to bash that guy's vid or anything. he had it more correct than any other youtuber at the time. haha

[xXSilhouetteLiarXx]

nice job =)

[epiphone124]

damn,this is hella good,

it's hard to believe you learned it by ear and got this close to it,i'm not saying i don't believe you though,could you email me the tabs or something?

[G400martin]

yeah man. give your email on here or in a private message if you want. i got the file right here on my desktop.

i can give you power tab or html text looking stuff.

your choice.

[br00tl3ethan]

this is great.

[gunsnrosesnslash]

Dude there is no way this is fake. his guitar sounds different to the bmth's guitarist.

[OnlyTheGreatSurvive]

nice cover:)

WHITE POWER!

[Screamodude123]

Dude, this is fucking tight! And good point in the description.

[EmoGaaraSama]

i read ur description after i saw the video i didnt think u were faking dude that is so good maby u can teach me how to play that song ive been having a little trouble

[G400martin]

thank you. haha

send me a message on here some time and i'll find a way to get you the tabs i made for it a few months ago.

[EmoGaaraSama]

thanks hahaha did i send you a friend invite? well if i didnt ill send one

[sochoii]

3:43 no can argue ur faking

[Gaber1999]

no, he's not. 0:42

[G400martin]

sochoii....

I'm honestly not sure whether you're saying this video is fake or not due to your lack of punctuation and atleast an attempt at spelling? haha...

[sochoii]

sorry dude, i meant to type, "no one can argue that you are faking this cover", but i guess, i half-assed it.

kant i spel ghood enuf 4 u?

fagget

[G400martin]

lol alright, let's not bring name-calling in to this. it obviously confused me and gaber1999 so i;m not alonte and there's no need to get defensive. lol

thanks for the comment? i guess?

[sochoii]

haha.. sorry man, my girlfriend must have seen what you wrote and gotten defensive... she was right though, i totally did half-ass that first comment! :]

nice cover.

[G400martin]

haha oh dang. women...

no hard feelings man.

[xXshermanaterXx]

nice man, this is sick, definitely the best band of all time

[G400martin]

thanks a lot. i dont know about best band of all time, but i saw them a few years ago and they put on a freakin good show.

[waxton48]

Listen to real metal: Darkthrone, Dark Funeral, Bethlehem, Forgotten Tomb, Noothgrush, Burning Witch, Thorr's Hammer.

If you don't like but at least one of these bands, your sense of talent is very distorted.

I'm not trying to be a dick. Just trying to get you to listen to real metal.

There is nothing metal about a bunch of christian kids wearing gym shorts flaying their arms around like a bunch of morons.

[G400martin]

I'll break my comments down in to sections for those who show it need be.

-sigh-

For one,

-Who are you to be the judge of talent?

-Who are you to be the judge of the music I listen to? If I don't agree with you about metal bands then my sense of talent is distorted? You ob viously don't even know my taste in music, metal is actually only a small portion of it.

[G400martin]

-Who's to say I dont like other bands than this?

Just because I made a youtube cover vid of a one band does not mean I am only interested in/limited to that genre of music.

-"real metal...." I dont know where you got that.

I think alot music is about interpretation and creativity. If you don't like it, don't listen to it. If you have something up for discussion about a band/entire genre, then that's fine.

[G400martin]

-Christian kids flailing there arms around?

slam-dancing, hardcore dancing, call it what you please. I don't even know how to dance like that. hah

-Is Bring Me the Horizon even a christian-related band in the first place? Your point here is very generic and way too broad to even be considered legitimate in my opinion.

-Anyways, just letting you know that your comment was dumb. Not trying to be rude or anything, just trying to tell you about some reality. you know how that works right? =)

[varajay407]

LOL PWNED

SO MUCH WIN

[waxton48]

I don't know your taste in music, but I myself used to like Bring Me the Horizon. Now I know they're just a bunch of scene faggots that only play their shitty music for pussy and money.

Trust me they said so themselves.

I was just trying to get you to listen to something you might enjoy. There is something unique and different about each of those bands, unlike the majority of shit metal that gets through as mainstream.

Don't have a pissyfit over youtube man.

[G400martin]

i find it interesting that your points have changed a lot since your last comment. XD

i also find it interesting that you get on the computer and look up bands you dont like and leave comments about your dislikes in cover videos.

i wonder who is really throwing the youtube pissy fits?

you seem to be a very common type of

youtuber. leaving thoughtless comments all over the site and clogging it up.

find things/people that share your interests. it makes everyone happy.

thanks! =)

[samtheman92]

Ha interesting.....? I think a lot of people have learned about the "real" BMTH but regardless of whatever they're doing/ have done they still put out some songs that are fun as hell to play. I think the playability of a song is what it comes down too. I applaud you for this cover *and your hair:P* and thank you for helping me choose the next song I'm going to (attempt to) cover:D + Herman Li= o_0

[bpo200002]

dude there is no such thing as REAL metal and NONREAL metal metal is metal and you really have to stop bitching about it and this isn't a christian band dude and where the hell did you get gym shorts from? i mean honestly was it just the first thing to pop into your little brain?

[gangstagangsta456]

how does religion or choice of pants play into what's metal or not?

you're one of those "if they don't dress like slayer i don't like them" kids aren't you

you try so hard to be anti-scene that you yourself are just as scene.

you judge music by looks not sound.

that is the definition of "scene"

hypocrite

[iamginge1]

right for fuck sakes please can someone tell me how i can get a proper pinched harmaonic sound i know how to do it but it doesn't sound right... any donations will be greatly apreciated

[wjp411]

use allot of distortion. try from the 7th too 3rd fret.

use top 3 strings.

bridge pickup

[G400martin]

experiment with different frets, experiment with the placement of of your picking hand where you hit the string.

both of those are pretty important factors as far as changing the pitch of your harmonics.

make sure that when you pick the harmonic that the pick is getting a very strong push. almost a percussive attack. just a find a comfortable way that will give you the best sound.

[greendcs666]

Nice cover bro. I'd definetly like the tabs of your part. You can tell you didn't use tabs. Just go look at the other covers. they all look like there playing the same thing except you. Good job man.

[G400martin]

thanks for the comment. i have them. i just need to find a place to upload them.

ultimate guitar is giving me a hard time for some reason.

[thefays15]

wow man good cover wish you lived near by would o asked you to be in our band haha

[eatmealiveagain]

[G400martin]

thanks. lol

[metalfreak92]

[steelangelblack]

[G400martin]

hopefully they'll upload them. and no, no xbox here. ive been playing for 4 years now. this video's about a year old though.

[krew234]

hahaha i like the scene girl music comment, nice cover bmth is gettin hella over rated =p

[G400martin]

got that right. haha

i cant deny the fact that they do put on a good live show. they're entertaining but its more about the music to me personally.

[Sumkiid0]

lulz, i love all these comments from ignorant youtubers. obviosly he did not use tabs if you watch his fingers and read some tabs. there are no tabs for this song that are good. yes he really did play it. he used to play it quite often until he realized that bmth is scene girl music.

good job marty! i love it.

[xPostmoderNx]

mmmm scene girl music

[G400martin]

bahahaha right on.

[Sumkiid0]

:/

[garret6trm]

the begining looks wrong to me but we might have different tabs!!!

[G400martin]

actually i didnt use tabs for that part. i did it by ear. its defintely more "right-sounding" then any tab you will find out there. i'll make the instructional vid sometime.

[Dyaln1863]

wow that looks fake as hell.

[G400martin]

too bad it's not =)

i'll put up the instructional vid sometime just for you buddy.

[bombtheblogosphere]

Why would anyone fake a song this easy to play? He's really playing it, he just didn't use one of those gawdawful ultimate guitar tabs :/

[brandenguy0987]

hey really good cover man gotta give yea that

but can yea help me

every tab i find is wrong and is crap where did u get the tabs to learn this song?

[G400martin]

i picked it up by ear.

i'll look for the tabs sometime because they had a good solo part but the rest i did by ear. i'll put up an instructional video for it sometime.

[greendcs666]

Fuck about time someone does the fucking intro right.

How hard is it to play a fucking intro right.

Good cover man.

5/5

[G400martin]

[garret6trm]

[G400martin]

hmmm, i dont know about in this video exactly but yeah, you can get anything right with enough practice and a good ear to this band's terrible recordings.. haha. i might put up a "teaching" of the song vid but i'll see how my PH's match up with the bands...

[garret6trm]

[maxsoeth]
