im glad he doesn't use syns guitar. its hella stupid. why buy an artist signature which only sounds good for that style of music when you can buy a regular guitar and make it your own? btw awesome cover bro
@strawsparky33 i own a syn custom and let me tell ya, it sounds awesome for pretty much every style u wanna play...just saying, do not say what you dont know
The only critiques I have on this cover is the sweeps were really dirty ascending back and the dive bomb at the end was kind of weak but I understand it's hard to get the harmonics especially after shredding, I'm sure you've improved since February of 2008 though =P
FINALLY!! SOMEONE WHO PLAYS IT 1,000% PERFECT, WITHOUT A DAMN SYNYSTER GUITAR!!!!!! i have NOTHING against tht guitar, i mean its SEXY, but its over used...
Every one of you guys that says that this cover is perfect ... lmao guys.
1. You can barely hear him playing, I can see him hitting most of the notes completely wrong.
2. The slide part was all wrong. Not sure about the sweeping part, I couldn't hear your guitar.
Don't get me wrong, it's a decent cover, but it's far from perfect and you can barely hear your guitar. I'm sure you could do a better job, so I think you should remake it with a backing track and turn up your amp a bit. Gj
@ShredableGuitar well you may be right but remeber there are always diff positions and the best covers of the this solo by far are usucknoob123 and zypheros? something like tht
No, zepheros afterlife solo cover is not very good. It's extremely sloppy, the tab is way off sometimes and it's just very off-tempo. But, usucknoob123's cover is very good, in fact, I think that that's the only good cover of the afterlife solo on youtube. Hopefully my next afterlife solo cover can match that level, it has improved A LOT.
@ShredableGuitar you must be deaf man if you listen at the beginning the notes that he slides into are perfectly sinced with him playing, not to mention his guitar has a different tone then syns guitar....
Sorry, the slide part is 100% wrong. Don't know what the fuck has gotten into your head but this guy has the phrasing so wrong in that section. Talk to me when you know what you're talking about. He even picks it which is just wrong, the reason you think it sounds "perfectly" is because this guy plays it diatonic when syn goes very off scale, why don't you check out the video when he plays the afterlife solo and compare it.
No one on youtube has done it perfectly. And the way he does in this video, it's far away from right to. I know all the versions of how syn plays it and I can tab it for you later if you remind me.
He has three different versions :
The one he does on the album
The one he does on the video on the making of afterlife
The one he does live
I've managed to learn the two last ones and even the official tab book is wrong.
I love this solo so much. I wanna see you play it now that it's almost a year later, perhaps with some better audio too. You nailed it, but it's a shame that I couldn't hear the sweeps as well as the rest of it (I love sweeps). Beautiful job, again!
@wannabeserpento99 I'm gonna assume you are someone who doesn't know much about the technical aspects of what makes a guitar sound a certain way... you are probably one of those shallow assholes who just judge a guitar based on how they think it looks. Fail.
@TesseractDigital HAHAHAH. dont act like u know anything dude, yea maybe it looks cool if ur an emo gaytar but otherwise it sucks, and no i havent bothered to check out what pickups it has etc.
@wannabeserpento99 In that case check it out. Its actually a really good guitar. The pick ups are fucking bad ass, and the guitar produces beautiful harmonics.
I'd rather be an emo gaytar who plays a beautiful sounding guitar than settle for a "classy" guitar with inferior tone.
Not to say that its THE best guitar out there, but at $700 (that I got it for), I think that I snagged a pretty damn good deal.
@TesseractDigital duuude. best guitar out there???? i think im wasting my time, obviously u dont know anything about anything and dont u think that those same pickups r in hundrets of other guitars?
seriosusly dont be stupid, just because u like a guitar player doesnt mean he is best and his guitar is best, when u realize that then we can continue this conversation
fucking beast motherfucker...ahh im fucking jelous i wanna learn that just think that the sweep at the end is hard but oh well ima take it a try jiji ...:D
PLEEEEAS!!!!!!!!!!!!! WILL YOU SEND ME YOUR TABS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! your so great and i really need to get a good tab for this solo. c'mon help me out here man.
0:31 to 0:37 isn't right, it sounds close, but he's playing more notes. In the real song, he's basically tapping with one hand (if that makes sense) in that he trills with two fingers and plays the other notes with a third. Also 0:11 to 0:13 is all hammer ons and pull offs.

@wannabeserpento99 and for the record, Schecter custom orders the pick ups from Seymour Duncan, so technically no other guitar has the same pick ups.
So as I said earlier, I'm not saying its THE BEST guitar, but at the price I got it, its pretty fucking good.
