[HotFilms13]

picks nose! 0:28

[weimer495]

you playing outside?

[HondaPower115]

JCM900 FTW!!!! I'm also looking for an LTD EC1000. Maybe i will save for a ESP Eclipse or maybe a Viper.

[maidenforever666]

nice guitar ESP or LTD ?

[CypherThanatos]

@maidenforever666

its a LTD. They don't make the ESP eclipse in green.

Also if you look at the 12th fret you can see the model name which is only on ltd models.

On ESP models u simply see ESP. (:

[valdivia562]

marshall half stack and an eclipse! you bastard!

[Paul1953H]

The cool thing about the diminished arpeggios is that each note is 3 frets from the previous one so it's really easy to figure out where the next one is (apart from the really distinctive sound).

[pkilly126]

my man's a BOSS

[squirrel162]

definitley the sickest sweeps, thanks for this vid!!!!!!!

[Dai3eb]

Cool I guess but sounds like shit.

[afs5150]

so you go up 4 frets ? really ? seriously ? a minor 3rd is 3 frets last time I checked. get it right before you start trying to teach !!

[NuggetsOfRivendell]

@afs5150 I think he means every 4th fret

[Bflatest]

my question to you would be in the context of a chord progression where would one use this scale/riff?

[ILikeToPlayGuitarToo]

you cap is fucking gay

[survivalist999]

Dude Do U Have A Band???

[Ironmaiden348]

[6project6nightmare6]

trick is to go up in Minor thirds since thats how these chords are created ;]

[bdubbstsi]

people mostly only tell u have to sweep the strings and how to do a sweep motion and the frets. but nothing about the details ;-)

[iChugCoffee]

Wow your a really chill layed back dude ;]

[InfiniteMisery003]

[Metalchris36]

[pob333555]

who is this freak xDD

[mynameised123]

you are so sick at guitar... nice guitar btw

[ILOOKEDUPHERSKIRT]

noob do the 5 string sweeps. not just 3.

[seanxhall]

@ILOOKEDUPHERSKIRT you do a 5 string diminished sweep, they arent easy and unnecessary, theres better ways to play these these by the way, in this video he uses the symmetrical pattern, the spacing between all of these is a minor third, the space between the lowest and 2nd lowest note is a diminished 5th, which isnt wrong, its just if you start minor 3rds stay on that course

[generation666]

the space between the supertonic and mediant is a minor third. the diminished fith is between the tonic and mediant. but why would you want to play up minor thirds? it just becomes so incredibly dull

[seanxhall]

@generation666 the distance between super tonic and the mediant is either a major or minor 2nd depending on major or minor scale, the reason for using the symetrical diminished scale (only going up minor thirds) is to stress the leading tone so the resolution sounds suspenseful, used on a dominant 5 chord a half step below tonic, sorry i took forever on the response

[generation666]

@seanxhall I was talking in terms of the Diminished scal e that he's using. And no matter what you call it, emphasis or what have you, you can'ttell me you honestly believe it's not dull.

[generation666]

@seanxhall sorry, you're right. its a second but its still lame lol

[bradyhasguitarskills]

Are you an idiot? 3 strings are harder then 5's.

[TravisMaxima]

Eh, it would depend on the arpeggio shap you're playing.

[XxZechariahxX]

i dont know why people make fun of you man.Your pretty fuckin sick.Nice shirt by the way!

[guitarphreak100]

@XxZechariahxX bro cause he doesn't care about them making fun of him, look at his hat!!!

[rocgod]

fuck you cunt. the video isnt about the theory, just on how to play them.

[Lord6Of6Chaos6]

Way to go =P

[MarkxxM]

Theory... ok.. im pretty sure nothing he said was about the 'theory'.

It doesnt matter what your opinion is against this kid, he kicks your ass on guitar no matter what.

nice video by the way.

[shaftesburyguitarguy]

@Ermemel...just a vid man. I'd be more concerned by your grammer...unaccurate!? really?

[takarakamika]

@shaftesburyguitarguy: LOL

[TankDriverOriginal]

Nice guitar! I have a question about the it. Is it possible to tune it in perfectly? Cause I want one but just if it's perfect. Thanx!

[JessieBolt]

GREAT LESSON.

Thanks.

[thricegod1288]

turn the reverb down a bit, then your sound will be great!!!!! nice playing though.

[csmorgan]

it looks like he is on a patio of a cottage house in kansas haha

[deftonesordie]

[breebreeorghorgh]

[Moparandrsfreak01]

Hah no problem. The video was good and informative anyway :P/

[Moparandrsfreak01]

Not to be a prick here, but your video would be more convincing if you could spell the word 'diminished' properly.

[rocgod]

haha wow that totally went over my head. thanks man!

[Necromancererer]

@Moparandrsfreak01 You are a fag.

[tokin891]

@Moparandrsfreak01 I love how people who are definitely about to say something cock-like always say, "Not trying to be a dick man but.." If you're gonna be a dick, own it, dont apologize or try to sound like you aren't. We all see right thrroouuuughhh ittttttttt.

[diegux9]
