'chill-out' Improvisation

[DavidL1432]

backtrack?

[tractorKing]

Awesome video!

Lydian scale is the scale you're using, though not in a really modal fashion. Mixolydian has a b7. Easier to think of it just as a major chord progression.

[BreeBree1731]

Arent that all Pentatonics ? I mean Ionic, Doric, phrygian, lydic, mixolydic?

[MrHelloGuitar]

Where did you get that backing track?

[yuraaa1990]

excellent

[SeekNTruth]

Great playing and technique. You should see if you can do the next G-3 tour.....seriously!!

[sdylte]

your amazing, i've seen all your other vids are you in a band or something? and what guitar is that? :)

[thelycandraven]

hey I play in a band Šmucig Švanc I also have guitar endorsement for Zane 7. the guitar is Ibanez RG 505DXDY

[MrLeperMessiah]

You are a master sweeper.

[LiveFromPalmBeach]

Hey Thelycandraven!

Your playing is pretty sweet! Your guitar is very cool. I have some tips for you that I learned in the trenches of tyring to get the best tone from my guitar if it's ok with you. I have found over time that echo saturation really soaks out the tone and makes the guitar runs very hard to hear. With playing as good as yours, I would suggest super 'ducking delays' or simply turning the delay down. That way, I can hear those awsome runs better.

Rock On Bro!

[Grunge00125]

personally(with no offense to the guitarist) i dont think the echo was very neccesary at all. lol.

[Guitaristofnone]

Dude, that was amazing

is this song in mp3? coz i love it

[thelycandraven]

hey! thanks for the nice words...sorry bro...the song is not in MP3..:S

[ArturoGarciaMarquez]

@Guitaristofnone If you want it in MP3 I use onlinevideoconverter and just get some of the cool stuff youtube offers but you can't buy on i-tunes. Hope it helps :D

[ethanthestuntman]

You are the new improoved Steve Vai!

[thelycandraven]

hehe lol dude..:P don't say that:P

[bingo872]

Omg. ive looked at like all of your othe vids and this is my favourite.

it shows like loads of techniques and you so good you probbaly dnt even realise your using them.

ive played for like 2 years and i can't seem to get any better. any tips on how to improve on my playing?????

anything will be appreciated.

[thelycandraven]

tnx dude!! my advice is that: don't start sherdding ans sweep and all that shit too soon..there is always time for that...improvise alot and try to put as much feel in to your playing as you possibly can! keep on rockin, Thelycandraven

[aslak78]

More two-hand-tapping!!!

[RainbowShaker]

thats rght....look at the dot of the third fret..

nice playing mate...u got really fast fingers (=

[aerosmith83]

the reason why that bandanas on his neck is to reduce buzz from the other strings lol

[thelycandraven]

hello:) well if you look closer!!! you will see that the bandana is actually on the head of my guitar and has NO CONTACT WITH the strings whatsoever..it is there for estetic reason only! so next time you comment about something like that make sure you know what you art talking about. keep on rockin' Thelycandraven

[darknight260]

Excellent as always, my friend :)

[ethanthestuntman]

How long do you practice to play at an amazing speed like that?

[mikeymike4g63]

hey man could you send me that backing track? I may make my own version and post it as a reply to yours :) DY brothers. even if yours is a 505.... haha

[TonskiTAS]

Take that thing off your neck you bitch

[thelycandraven]

hello man:) you failed, sorry dude!:* if you look closely at the beginning of the video you can clearly see that the bandana has NO contact with the strings what so ever:) it is only there for estetic reason..it is not on the neck but at the begining of the head just after the locking system..but no problem..I had to explain this to people like you many times:) therefor I have no reason to take it off..keep on rockin bitch..Thelycandraven

[TonskiTAS]

Just for the looks eh

[thelycandraven]

hey tonskiTAS..I have blocked you, because I do not want to receive any more comments from you...keep on rockin', thelycandraven

[dirtyfrets]

Man, you are really talented and your hard work shows. How many horse a day do you practice, or how many hours did you practice before you got really good? Nice sweeps. By the way, I'm a 17 yo American.

[thelycandraven]

tnx. I play a few hours a week... but I did practice up to 5 hours a day some 6 years ago...once you reach a certain level of technique it is easier to sustain it...

[tru3m3talh3ad]

bah. can you play some fuckin yngwie malmsteen and sound as clean as him?

[Solomon193]

I think he could play it even better than Ygnwie himself lol

[thelycandraven]

no, I could never play like yngwie malmsteen

[seth3556r]

You can, just try to make your notes cleaner and try to think like him on guitar (think intervals, arpeggios, and keys instead of scales).

[krnekino]

SPAAAAMMMM

[thelycandraven]

[krnekino]

[krnekino]

Fak tebe prov sede poslušat po parih spitih pirih... Dej ta počen sendi mi tale backing ob prilki. pridn bit!!!! lp

[ACDChellsbells]

All this guy can do is Sweeps, And those aren't impressive to me. He sux.

[thelycandraven]

lol dude...what could I expect from 17 yo American...:) I presented some other techniques in this video too:) just some basic sweeping at the end..next time before posting a rude comment like this I expect a pending video response from you in my inbox..otherwise you just look like an asshole ok?:) keep on rockin man, Thelycandraven

[P5ych00]

yeah dude all this guys can do is shred, solo, sweep, legato, tap, all while staying in key and soloing to a back track while also keeping a proper beat, but hey, it's not too impressive cause..... wait you're just fucking dumb! faggot lol, nice solo.

[seth3556r]

Hey, thelycandraven, I have been practicing sweeps like you and I have begun to reach great speeds almost like yours, but it's taking great practice. I have been studying different methods and mastering while I'm teaching a ten year old girl how to play guitar now.

[XeniTenz]

Nice playing...

[derangedforlife]

[headbanger69696]

[thelycandraven]
