The human abstract - Nocturne by Koen_lespaul

[pumpkinheadjrb]

i love people who put covers on youtube, cuz i dont know anything about tabbing, so i have to rely on guitarpro. I watch covers like this cuz at 0:36, i wasnt sure if that was supposed to be tapped or just a big finger stretch. Thanks man

[greenbeaner69]

@pumpkinheadjrb actually dude im pretty sure aj taps it lol when i play it i hammer on the ascending notes but then when it descends i tap. just do whatever is easier. u should NEVER completely follow guitarpro like its a prophet lol play however its easier for u

[greenbeaner69]

solo was kinda rough but i know how u had to bend to get that 23rd fret!!!! haha i had to do it to for my cover. gotta love that les paul!!! GREAT JOB!!!

[piebeforedawn]

@KoenLespaul Yay! I knew a few people from there. They called everyone and anyone geit and/or geitenkop. hahaha

[KoenLespaul]

@piebeforedawn  yes i am!

[1dednimnepo]

If you ever do any project or band recordings, send me a message. You're a very solid guitarist and am interested to hear your own material. Rock on brother!!!!!

[yz251f]

Wow i wish my hands were that big so I could do insane reaches without effort

[TotalSweetness100]

you are really good. try playing song throw your amp so we can hear the song to .

[Raven2506]

Raven2506 wants to be you !

[Pepefromthebario]

:O......

[Slipmaxxx]

i realy cant stand people who search for misstakes in this perfect cover just because he did it

hello ?! he coverd nocturne ?!

[LEGOsuicides101]

Is that a MIDI file playing in the background? It sounds like PowerTab or Guitar pro.

[igotwoodhaha]

Ur not that bad. pretty good.

[skullGYSC]

woahh

you roockkk!!!!

[Nyugiii]

you rooooock!

[mitchieb123]

for some reason parts of this sounds like a violin =|

see this dude has skill! he can make it sound like he is jamming away on a violin!

your one mean sucker! keep up the good work.

[jamiepoultonadult]

ahah 13,337 veiws,

1337

[Eklipzeleadguitar]

what kind of pick do you play with? and what tone setting u use?

fucking nice cover....

[heavymetalgod345]

Im guessing you're playing along with Guitar Pro?

[pal1090]

solo is menacing in this song :x

[0redthunder0]

There some immense sweeps! :|

[kikiphallin]

dude it surprises me that you made mistakes in some of the easier parts of the solo, don't get me wrong you did an amazing job, an almost perfect,it just surprises me, maybe you needed some practice in just that part of the song.. sometimes when you learn a hard song, you learn the hard parts but miss a lot of the easy parts just because you think, "ooh its cool, i'll learn that easy riff... after i get this insane solo!" then when you record a video for youtube, you are like: oh! the easy riff!

[KaspertheWootster]

In fucking sane

[crystalxrawr]

i love you

[MiggyPage]

i like the way you play, but i think you could get a better tone

[slipknota7xxx]

i hateeeeeeeee youuu

[viper1991]

perfect but the tabs you used were wrong.

[Rodriguito123456]

these tabs are directly from their site

[kevstew26]

Man this is such a good vid. You and i are like the only ones who do full covers of tha songs and actually attempt all the hard parts instead of switching to rhythm when the solo kicks in. Im going to upload my full nocturne cover soon :P

[PrimalForce1]

jesus christ, nice job

[eduardodiaz13]

:o im surprised by your fingers of death i mean instrumental genius but the tune is sorta wrong but other than that its devilish good!!!

[Heatnix666]

the tuning is different, that's all

[romerol91]

wrong tune

[dukeguy123]

@romerol91 It sounds better in this tune. Besides, he's playing a Les Paul and his strings aren't probably meant for the correct tuning. Analyze before you criticize.

[guitarplyr465]

nice cover im trying to learn how to sweep pick thats like the only thing i cant do so i was wondering how you learned how to sweep pick?? please respond. thanks.

[seemeinHD]

wow this is good keep it up bro!

[stompydo]

hay amazing cover !

what fx pedal/pedals did you use from 1:10-1:19 ? or was that just what guitar sounds like cleen ?

[derekborchers123]

how come you dont tune your guitar to d standard? but this is still the best cover ive seen

[thecolfaxkid]

can you say, prodigy

[POOP7205]

Hes been playing for like 5 years and it wasnt even that good of a cover.

[KoenLespaul]

Ive been playing for 4 years to be exact.

When this was recorded i guess i had been playing for 3/3,5 years

[ChumFiesta93]

I like your covers man,there awesome,but your supposed to be in a band now:)

[Nattakku1]

Please AJ save your band. And your picking is sick dude.

[jacobdylan13]

?

THa is a lot better without them.

AJ didn't even wanna be in it anymore.

so why should we miss him if he doesnt miss us?

[Nattakku1]

AJ just said he cant play metal on stage anymore or with THA because hes backin in college for english and he wants to pursue a new music genre. And fuck you AJ is my nigguh and he helped THA's launch majorly.

[jacobdylan13]

i know he did that,

but i personally think that tapley im better than him.

dont get me wrong.

AJ is an AMAZING guitarist, and im stressing that greatly.

i wish the best of luck to him, but i think we should move on to bigger and better things.

[nephtk]

Uh, exuse me? aj WAS tha. Mozart of metal. Not alot of people pick up on the neoclassical that he puts in nearly every song. But if you listen to the new stuff it's garbage. Doesn't sound like THA.

[jacobdylan13]

Like I saidm

he was an amazing guitarist.

I personally think that the new stuff takes more talent, and is certainly NOT garbage.

maybe its just me, because im into technical metal.

[hhtr1]

aj has not been playing for only 2 years you morons he went to my old high school he's been playing for a lot longer than that

[jacobdylan13]

ok then well Micheal told differently.

[Jphthe2]

nice sweeps

[dakotahill64]

yo im just letting you know that im a huge fan of your playing , ESPECIALLY THE SWEEPS!

[ohwhatacereal]

maybe a.j. is randy rhoads just reborn

because if he hadnt died he would have gone to play classical too

hell yea

[moon0809]

umm english please? lol

[EllipticalExistence]

hear the news? the guitarest from THA quit. they have a new guy, as far as i seen, he doesnt shred balls like the other guy...

[jacobdylan13]

ya but the new guy has much more experience the the old guy, who only had two years.

the new guy has seven.

and give him time,

he hasent been with them long.

hes still getting ahold of the new songs.

he will be amazing soon

[MetallicaSlayerGNR]

AJ Minette has only been playing for two years? no way!

[jacobdylan13]

yep.

michael nordeen told me on AIM

[MetallicaSlayerGNR]

no way! he would have to play like 12 hours a day minimum! thats just unreal for 2 years

[jacobdylan13]

i know

but i think that dean is doing a really good job with they're new shit

look up videos on here

they have two songs called calm in the chaos

and another one that i cannot think of

they are AMAZING

[MetallicaSlayerGNR]

oh yea dean is awesome! im way excited for their new album! but it just blows my mind AJ could play for such a small amount of time and be able to play this music

[guitarfire92]

dammit ive been playing for a yeaar an a half and he makes me look like shit

[MacabreTurtle]

Umm.... considering the band started in 2003....

[jacobdylan13]

micheal told me.

thats all i know.

[suckyluckyducky]

thats really frecking good man

[thelastvendetta]

great !

[spanman]

good cover man, i've got cover done aswell.

...but yours is better lol.

[Twixgtx]

that sounds wrong, but thats fast and impressive... the solo at the end i mean. the rest sounds pretty solid :D

[Leounit18]

play polaris!!!

[vredesbyrdtank1]

guitar pro? nice!

[greghertlein]

you need to play polaris

[Mynor19]

you make this look easy man, haha

[Mudokwan1]

Hey, textbook technique man...there at the end a little slop...but excellent overall!

[shrednose5]

hey man amzing what tabs did you use

[skater7744]

he uses the guitar pro, cant you hear it?

[XxCruzerxX]

pretty badass dood

[slayerroxsmymind]

you have sum crazy skills man

[jakelevieux]

how did you do those taps in the very beginning?

[KoenLespaul]

With my fingers xD

No i Hammer on the last note before the taps so ive got time to bring my hand more closer to the fret board and in position to make thos taps

[jakelevieux]

o ok, what frets do you use then? cause in the tabs i have (guitar pro 5 crap), they go from like the 18th fret to the 6th, which is quite impossible to play at that speed...

[jakelevieux]

wait where did you learn this?

[KoenLespaul]

From that same tab (= to go from the 18th fret to the 6th fret you need to tap it. so you play the 18th with your right hands index or middle and the 6th with any finger on your left hand.

[jakelevieux]

o yeah, that makes sense. it doesn't seem like you are going to the sixth fret in the video, so are you just going to the 10th and 14th? also, do you know who made these tabs?

[Daxten]

No i think you dont know what tabing is :p

I can play the beginning too, it goes like this ->

You hit the 18th fret with one finger of your PICKING hand very hard, and then you make a PULL OF with that finger! with your left hand you hold the 6th fred and after the pull off you HAMMER on with your pinky on the 10th fret!

[POOP7205]

You dont play the sixth fret. the human abstract posted a tab for this song. It's 18 10 14 10 18 10 14 10.

[POOP7205]

You may know what tabing is but you apparently dont have an ear for music :p

[Daxten]

yes u play it, i dont know the name of it in english but they play "terzen"

So AJ is playing what u posted and Dean is playing what i posted ;)

[sezario66]

thank u

u no how long ive been trying 2 find out how 2get that timing for it...greatly appreciated!

u give young guitarist like me hope man keep it up bro!

[hellashes]

Damn. I started playing it when the tab first came out. And to tell ya the truth, you blow me away. XD

[Brule33]

yo koen play the new protest song blood meat :D

[liquid911]

dammit this sux I need a camera to record dean's part up with that...i suggested something to youtube about having like a dual vid upload/attach thing for something like this :)

[Flames22]

[VictusHonor]

[liquid911]
