@UnosDosTresMan Thanks a lot! I actually think the solo could have been better, but this was my best take out of three and I didn't feel like doing a fourth, otherwise I probably would have tried to get a perfect take of the solo.
Great job! What's with the phone on your leg though? Also, how the hell do you keep the V from sliding down your leg? Whenever I play a V I have to put it between my legs or else it just slides down.
@funkgerm Haha it's not a phone, it's my iPod. Actually, it was hard to keep it from sliding down my leg, but I tightened my strap as far as it would go and then the guitar mostly stayed up by itself.. The camera couldn't see the full fretboard when the V was between my legs so I had to find a way to balance it on my leg, lol.
@MrRagnorawk Ahh I see. So what do you use the iPod for then? Haha that would bother the shit out of me if I had to balance somethin on my knee while playing
@funkgerm Well, I add the original song to the video with Windows Movie Maker and in order for it to sound its best, the song and the sound from the video have to sync perfectly. In order to make that process easier, I listen to the song while playing it on my iPod. I had to put it on my knee though because my headphone cables don't reach very far.
@MrRagnorawk Ohh I see. Yeah I use a Line6 POD which plugs directly into my computer so I can just play the song and my guitar part on the same speakers coming out of my computer. Makes things real simple haha.
@funkgerm Yeah I figured by the tone of your guitar in your videos, but unfortunately I can't do that since my camera is handheld and I can't record my guitar sound direct into it, lol.
@Depthagion Probably. I love that album, so I'm considering Throes of Perdition,Prometheus and the Crucifix, and maybe Kirisute Gomen. I might also cover some stuff from Ascendancy and Crusade too.
very nice )))

@GJRM18 Thanks! I'm using a Blackstar HT-5, but the distortion is coming from a BOSS ME-25 and an MXR KFK 10-Band EQ pedal.
