  • @pardeepbhachu WTF??? You come here to talk about Zakk without knowing almost anything about him!!! I have seen BLS like million times live.... Everytime he had like three Gibsons on the stage and he had also deans.... Zakk owns also "the ozzy guitar" and there's only one of them in the whole world.... Zakk wasn't fired from Ozzy's band, Zakk has said that he wanted to focus more on BLS and that's why he isn't in the band anymore... You ain't just enough badass for his riffs, that's all. Truth

  • what just happened?

  • no passion in there, paul gilbert is god :)

  • Man that was boring.

  • all noobs shut up! he plays scales that's right but he is playing from the buttom of his heart, and his scale linking technique is Godlike that's y it sounds awesome even tho he plays normally just 1 scale!!! ain't gonna tell what scale coz if u r really a zakk's fan u should know it :P lol!!

  • its not the fact that all he plays is the same scales over and over, its the fact that no one can do it like he does

  • esse tiuzinho manda muito bem na guita ,

  • cool shred

  • dont know why people keep saying all he plays is the scales over and over. there are only 7 scales to choose from. just because he plays some more than others so fucking what. all guitarist have there favorites. its how you play them and make them sound. there is not much he cant play that i know of . why cant people just listen to the music instead of crying about what scale he is playing. hes a great guitarist and musician. ITS MUSIC, DAMN GOOD MUSIC! STOP NIT PICKING & LISTEN YOU'LL HEAR IT!

  • @getchapull1966 Fuck yes.

  • @getchapull1966 Actually, just because I'm a dick and I like to contradict: there's considerably more than 7 scales, and Zakk doesn't use the modes that you're probably referring to.

    I like Zakk Wylde as much as the next guy, but if I listen to more than 2-3 songs in a row in which he plays, I *will* get bored because he rarely goes beyond minor or minor pentatonic.

  • @getchapull1966 theres A LOT more than 7 scales

  • @getchapull1966 Wut. Only 7 scales? Are you high?

  • Oh look, the exact same wanky wank licks like all his recent stuff. BLS died after Blessed Hellride. I also think Zakk Wylde is a sell out after appearing on American Idol.

    Zakk needs to fix up and start producing stuff like 'Book of Shadows', 1919 Eternal and Blessed Hellride once again. Maybe then I'll gain back the respect I've lost for him.

    By no means am I calling him shit but we all know he's slacking and he needs to sort it out...

  • @pardeepbhachu You sir, are a retard. He's a sell out just because he was on American Idol? I don't know what your definition of a sell out is, but mine - and I'm sure a lot of other people's - is doing something that you DON'T want to do in exchange for money. He obviously wanted to appear on American Idol and I highly doubt he was paid for it.

  • @SpacePyjamas Doubt he got paid for it? LOL are you serious? I didn't see American Idol plug any Black Label Society stuff, did you?

    Zakk Wylde hasn't got shit now days. Gibson don't make many of his Signatures anymore since Ozzy told him to fuck off and he's now using more Epiphone. To be a Gibson artist, you need to be touring (LOADS) which BLS hardly do because they don't have the fan numbers. His career has turned to shit since his departure from Ozzy.

    And EXACTLY, thats your opinion!!!

  • @pardeepbhachu

    oh my god you are so stupid shut up

  • @MysteryDjMan0 Truth hurts doesn't it? Zakk Wylde 'King of the box shape scale' LOL

  • @pardeepbhachu

    Dude you don't even know why Zakk Wylde left Ozzy . You are sayin that he is using epiphone guitars because he don't have fans ? Now learn these things

    1.Epiphone is a great brand of guitars

    2.Zakk has more than 15 new models of Gibson guitars , go check his twitter acount for images if you don;t believe me

    3.When he is playin with BLS , it goes sold out

    4.Ozzy "fired" Zakk because his music sounded like BLS and he wanted ta do some new records with different sound

  • @pardeepbhachu Your fucking stupid.

  • its fuckin amazing. good music doesnt need words

  • widdly widdly widdly WAH lol

  • FUUUCCCKKK NOOOO. wheres slash he needs ta give u some lessons

  • Slash is better. Nuff said.

  • @DrShredGood lol slash doesnt even come close to him. he wasnt using his set up that he normally uses.

  • @vft98 just listen to this ... slash is better than him for sure

  • @DrFringo sike!!! and explain why this is so...

  • @DrShredGood True. This is jus' nonsense random shredding, just stupid to listen to.... but that's just my opinion, so bear with me.

  • @DrShredGood If you're talking about who's better on the technical side of things, then Wylde is definately better. If you're talking about who sounds better, that's just a matter of opinion.

  • @DrShredGood slash is my biggest inspiration, and i prefer him over zakk wylde, but in my opinion, you can't compare guitarists just like you can't compare music, it's a subjective matter

  • Pinch harmonics much?

  • I started watching like this :) then it went to o_o and then 0_0 and then O_O and finally I said I will never be as good as this FREAKIN GOD!!

  • i have never see zakk hit triplets like that before

  • zack kick ass...but this is not one of his better solos , its too dirty and he triyng to playing tooooooo fast....

  • ZZZ

  • Now that's a fucking vibrato!

  • widdly widdly widdly waaaahhhh widdly widdly widdly waaaahhh

  • what bad tone ughh

  • This isnt his best solo...

    farewell ballad is awesome though!

  • so,it's fast.so what?Not that impressive.Steve vai isn't that fast and he's better than zakk.I like zakk but...

  • @Snoopx3d But what?

  • @a1n2d3r4e5w615 but fast isn't always better

  • @Snoopx3d What the fuck are you smoking? Zakk Wylde fuckin' anihilates Vai, I love Vai but man, no doubt Zakk wins

  • @SOTDDenver Are you playing guitar?

  • Some people are idiots. Anyone can pick up a guitar, bend a few notes, and call it playing with "feeling" and "soul" to me that isn't talent at all, the guitarist did absolutely nothing. It takes real talent to play quick WITH soul, which is exacly what Zakk and a few other guitarists can do. Besides, its a SOLO, the time when a musician is recognize for their talents, playing fast and clean with soul is diffcult. Thats real talent.

  • oh nooooo.......

  • anybody realize that a lot of that sounded like eruption...

  • only reason those people pressed the dislike bar was because is because the solo was too short.

  • BLACK LABEL SOCIETY - LOS ANGELES

  • kirk should watch this video to learn how to use wah wah!!

  • wow, its weird going from thinking zakk was the best in the world to seeing shit like this and thinking "....what was that?" it was messy sounding and unpleasing to the ear, i know he can do better, ive seen it....

  • funny i;ve never heard zakk wylde play a pinch harmonic. pfffftt

  • poolebros123 i got that wah! i don't know what's inside but i think is the most aggressive wah of all time!

  • Does anyone else think he's got a weird ass picking technique? The angle of his right hand is awkward, like the way a left-handed person writes.

  • Zakk needs to wash his hands........

  • I just hope that guitar was at least 18! O.O

  • mean wah sound =O

  • nice guitar?

  • Even if I detested this man's guitar playing (Which I don't though he needs some tone/bass desperately, too much treble) The man's a professional, meaning he not only practiced like a madman, but also performed...Like a madman for most of his adult life and played with his idol no less..(The lucky prick!) ;^) So I must give this madman his due respect. (Hell, I grew up/knew guys like him so I'm a bit biased!)

  • All you idiots downing Zakk, do you realize this guy can play piano, banjo, sitar, dobro, lap steel, bass, a pretty mean acoustic (just check out his live acoustic version of "Stillborn" if you got any doubts), and if you listen to his solo cd "Book of Shadows" you will find he is an incredible songwriter and composer as well. All the fast-hands, widdly-widdly are just his playing to us metal fans tastes.

  • if you dont think zakk is fucking king than go jump off a bridge. i like em all. and zakk is the fucking king!!!

  • Why oh why do people keep puting Zakk Wylde down? I'll never understand you people. This dude has put out so much great music. So many great CDs with a huge collection of songs in many different styles. From Ozzy, to P&G to BOS, to BLS. Theres something for everyone. I'm sure that Zakk would tell you, as I will, if you dont fucking like, then quit listenning to it and quit commenting. The difference between Zakk Wylde and you haters is that NOBODY cares about YOU!

  • this fretboard made of what kind of tree ? its colour seems like lighter than rosewood :S

  • eurhg speed doesn't make you good. watch john frusciantes solo (youtube john frusciante solo and it should be the 2nd one down) not that fast, but seriously it's godly.

  • @skillzdatkillz900 Correction... Speed doesnt make it good FOR YOU to watch. Its perfectly epic for me. BTW, I checked out that john frusciante stuff. Solo part one is very fast. I dont know about Godly though. But another great guitarist. Thanks for the reference. I can add another player to my list of GREAT players that I can enjoy. I prefer to have as many as possible. Also BTW, is that flea on base?

  • @clbaumer yeh i suppose it's all subjective - personal opinions, but for me this guys not great. and yeah its flea on bass

  • at the half of the video a thought passed my mind "I found a zakk's solo without wah...."what the fuck i was thinking.,....

  • @SLaSh2VX Soooooooooooooo.... Whats the problem?

  • 0:19 FUCKING EPIC WAH

  • that guitar looks waaaay too small for him

  • that guitar looks waaay too big for him....

  • ORGASM 0:17 - 0:21

  • This is faaaaaaaaaaaaar from Zakk's best work, lol. Now, his two albums "Pride and Glory" & "Book of Shadows" contains some of the best guitar playing ever, and he was a pretty damn good vocalist in the 90's too.

  • jesus christ this is sloppy

  • @Pauly99Walnuts well lets see someting tight then. ? sloppy? you fucking people are insane

  • gus g is far better

  • I like the part at 0:30 - 0:34

  • 204 people dont know wath real music is.

  • on my honest opinon, i think zakk tries to hard

  • I like this solo, but damn zakk's tone was so much better before he got into this whole wanna-be biker thing...

  • @felching i knw metal isn't meant to be about image, but i mean dude he has to be the coolest looking guy in metal. I mean i still prefer Iron Maiden to BLS but u have to admit iron maiden look like geography teachers, Zakk looks like Jesus crossed with pure heavy metal and a shit load of leather

  • slash > zakk wylde

  • @Bempley slash is the better player in my opinoin but zakks fucking awesome but its not a competition

  • is that even possible?

    

  • Damn those strings look old as hell, I'm surprised those haven't broke by now seeing as he overbends alot, which isn't a bad thing btw.

  • Check out the †The Four Horsemen†! Watch our videos! We're a local band from Aurora, Colorado!

  • zakk is good, but i think he uses the wah too much to his advantage

  • @illusionist3791 Dude that Wah is that guitar crying out in pain Cuz its being raped by the fingers of a Norse Thunder God! Zakk Doesn't even need a WAH Pedal haha!

  • His tone makes me wanna bust a fucking nut.

  • It' is fast.. BUT a solo doesn't always have to be fast to impress you or touch your heard. I this case i didn't impress me at all IMHO

  • @robybooy yeah I don't think Zakk is going to lose any sleep over your stupid comments. You sound like a whining gay emo bitch fag. Now fuck off and go listen to your Jonas Brothers.

  • @Hertsman50 Dude slash is a million times better guitar guru ... Screw you deep shit!

  • @robybooy you obviously don't play guitar. Zakk owns guitarists like Slash.

  • @robybooy HA you think slash is better than zakk wylde?? hahahhaa you are insane man.

  • @mustaine10 He is propably better than you. WHAT THE FUCK is wrong with you faggots??? You are comparing 2 close friends??? You think that will like Slash?? He will fucken punch you in the face you stupid asshole. Zakk is playing Southern Rock , Slash is more to blues and rock n roll. But i betcha you are a 14 year old kid that havent heard any of Slash music and just go with the flow...

  • @CoolKwstas123 you are the stupid, and i heard more music than you, i like slash (i heard all his music)and i think zakk wylde is much better in technique and composition.so shut up your mouth.

  • @robybooy agreed.... at times it even sounded like random sh*t

  • @robybooy You're probably not used to listening to fast stuff and are no guitar player yourself.

  • @robybooy If you want a solo that'll touch your heart, go watch Satriani play Meaning of Love. If you want to watch a wicked fast and evil sounding solo guitarist, listen to Zakk here. :p

  • @Vexus666 I prefer both, thanks.

  • @robybooy

    Zakk doesn't impress for his speed by itself only. It's whole style. Anything he does is amazing. He's a freaking legend, period.

  • @robybooy I wouldn't consider that fast?? It's a very melodic rock style blues riffing...

  • @robybooy as oppose to your dishonest opinion? Just checkin'.

  • @robybooy what about the i never dreamed solos there great and very emotional 

  • @robybooy i dont think by any means was zakk trying to "touch our hearts" with this solo. he was probably just messing around. now if you wanna hear some of zakks stuff that has tons of soul, listen to pride and glory or his solo album book of shadows. now if that stuff doesnt impress you, then youre tone deaf.

  • @robybooy i totaly agree with you !! but can you or someone else tell me a good solo thats not fast i will listen to it and give you a response ;)!!!!

  • @spenkystar well, take a look at the solo from scared tissue (RHCP), and november rain ;))

  • @robybooy yeah, the best parts of Zakk Wylde's Farewell Ballad are the slow parts, not the speed picking runs

  • @robybooy This solo combines speed and personality, please try and make your guitar squeal like a bitch instead of yourself, so you can prove a point.

  • @robybooy fagit

  • @robybooy oh dear "WHAT" wll we do

  • es el mejor he are thge best!

  • wow is amazing

  • man i love that fucking wahhhhhhhhhhhhhh

  • @poolebros123 He has such a cool and personnal way to use it, when I head that i instantly know it's zakk!

  • cool man if i can play like him on guitar i be a legend

  • ZAKK IS THE MAN!!! AND HE HATES TO SHOWER THATS ROCK AND ROLL!!!

  • Zakk Wylde is Beast!!

  • I'm so proud to born in the same world as he did.

  • Wow I waisted 44 seconds.

  • Sounds like he is just practicing scales.

  • Man, Zakk used to be good. He actually had something to play. Now it's just... meh, same old pentatonic licks and bends. He just sounds like the redneck he is.

  • @erpaloinen dude fuck you on this comment that is not true

  • @erpaloinen Explane me what is penatonic. Coz u really seem to know something about it or so u trying to act. And where have u been studing guitar playing? And what u know about Zakk?

  • @PlayItMad Pentatonic is a scale, and he uses it a LOT. You don't need to go to a guitar school to know arguably the most popular rock scale of all time. But to put it in simpler terms, listen to a lot of Zakk Wylde solos, and you'll realize that some parts sound VERY similar. It's because he primarily stays in that one scale, and it's hard to be original when you're limited like that. Not hating on Zakk, he's a pretty cool player, but it's just the truth.

  • @MyEverConstantSmile Zakk mixes pentatonics and diatonics.

  • @MyEverConstantSmile: LIke guitarist said...he uses diatonic (7 note as well). He hardly uses one scale. While he does stick to the minor key I have heard him solo in D, E, F, G. He uses chromatics, passing tones, slides, and blues rock licks. You also have to remember that he only briefly had a guitar tutor and became Ozzy's axe man after only 4 years of playing. It seems people try to single Zakk out more than any other guitarist...but generally those guys are Slash fans...enough said

  • Zakk is a great guitarist, but it would sound so much greater if he would ditch that thin sound O_o

  • @kkkisdalordofthedeat dude it cuts through a mix just right

  • its like a buff jesus playing guitar

  • Zakk is awesome but how come he does his picking strokes with his arm?

  • @DimeRR5150 cuz it looks cool

  • i want wristbands like his

  • How is this guy considered good he's just a douchebag Viking who is stuck in the 80s with all the other fast soulless players

  • @graemegwoodman I'm everyone agrees you probably can't even play smoke on the water douchebag! I'm a huge Zakk/BLS fan...i even named my first son after him. I'm also a huge combat vet...6'3" 220 pounds ripped...about the same size as Zakk himself...just a lil taller than him.....give me your address and i'll be glad to come by and shove the headstock of my Gibson Custom shop Zakk Wylde flying V up your ass and then rip it out and ram it down your throat.

  • @bmx69bmx1 video it for me and ill be waiting with a soda and a bag o popcorn

  • @bmx69bmx1 Someone says Zakk sucks, and you start to comment on his guitar playing and give out your own build. You really are an idiot. I feel sorry for your kid for having such a bad role model. Sheesh man, learn to take an opinion right.

  • @bmx69bmx1 You should take it easy with those steroids man, it affects your temper ;(

  • @graemegwoodman Zakk has more soul than any other player today...

  • @graemegwoodman Omg... I think u cant talk anything about soul if u listen kiss... And u dont seem to know anything about playing guitar:D or anything about Zakk

  • @graemegwoodman He aint even got a 80's guitar playing style so what are you talking about dude? There is alot of souless shred guys in the music industry but Zakk aint one of them.

  • His way of guitarplaying is so raw and dirty :D

  • wtf he´s amazing!!!!!

  • Oh my....Nearly slid off my computer chair I'm so moist from watching this legendary man SHRED!!

  • That is the best sounding wah i have ever heard!

  • man i fuckin love his tone!

  • There was absolutely nothing special about that solo; no emotion, mindless noodling and sloppy picking. It was a solo that any guitar player could shit out on a lazy day.

  • @WhiteVanPatrol SHUT cho Mout, foo!

  • @Bombsquad1 Oh god, a chimp could have thought of a better retort.

  • @WhiteVanPatrol I'll take "no emotion, mindless noodling and sloppy picking" from Zakk Wylde any day of the week bitch. The man's a guitar god...a walking legend. Your just an insignificant youtube douche like the rest of us.

  • @WhiteVanPatrol Zakk Wylde is known for emotion in his solo's. You want emotion, listen to FEAR-Zakk Wylde. Although you can listen to any Wylde song and the solo has emotion. Your just one of those ignorant's who love to hate Zakk, but you haven't heard nearly everyone of his songs, which then allows you to truly make an honest opinion.

  • @Aic1944 I've watched dozens of his live solo videos and I've listened to most of Black Label Society's albums and there is nothing special about what he does. Every solo is a shred solo; he had no innovation in his playing. Everything he does has been done before and done better. Every aspect of Zakk Wylde's appearance is contrived, from the way he looks, to the way he dresses and even the way he acts on stage; it's all carefully calculated.

  • @WhiteVanPatrol

    Okay cool.....Pride and Glory? Book of Shadows?

    Looks like you forgot some of his finest work that HE wrote too....biased son of a bitch....

  • @WhiteVanPatrol If you think every one of his solo's is a shred solo, then there is nothing much to say to you, except that you either haven't listened to pretty much every solo he has done, or you are just very naive, I think it's both. You saying his image, and the way he acts on stage is contrived is just completely retarded. I just saw him, and he wasn't acting in any specific way, just jammin to his tunes. I love BLS, but it's true that some of his finest work are his solo albums and P&G.

  • @WhiteVanPatrol Which you obviously haven't listend to. Even if you did, people like you who love to hate a guitarist and love to talk shit about them would never come out and say "ok that solo wasn't that bad." You have your opinions, and they will stay that way no matter what. Is Zakk the greatest guitar player alive? No, there are many great players, but most of them have a certain "style" and they play that style often. He is definetely in the top 15 best guitarist's alive today. From

  • @WhiteVanPatrol everything he has done. He as a single man can say he has done more than most other single artists/musicians. That's a fact. When someone bashes a guitarist in that fashion, they are obviously jealous or have another reason behind it, then simply "he sucks." I don't talk shit about any guitarist, especially one that has talent no matter if I like their style or not. Fact is Zakk DEFINED his sound.

  • @Aic1944 Zakk Wylde has the most definitive tone I have ever heard. He has a huge range of the sounds he can make on his guitar. He can make the guitar cry, and make it scream in anger, evoking any emotion under the sun. He is the most inventive guitarist I will hear in my lifetime. I am behind you with your entire comment.

  • @WhiteVanPatrol I've been writing too much, but one last thing: How can someone who likes DJing talk shit about a guitarist such as Zakk Wylde? Guarantee you've watched this video, maybe another one, and then you stated an incorrect opinion. Buzz off. You probably heard of him through guitar hero.

  • 196 people can go and kill themselves

  • Yeah yeah, if I was him, I could do that.

  • In the words of Master Shake

    "More like Zakk Mild"

  • wdf

  • Absolute awesomness

  • Fucking massive Zakk You're Great...

  • the guys quality at picking but he just overdoes the wah so much its not that nice to listen to

  • i wish i knew his gear setup :D

  • zw-wah-zw-od-black label chorus-dunlop rotovibe-evh phase 90

  • @rp94cobra GuitaristicGanius-Fingers,Les Paul, Overdrive Pedal, Marshall Stack

  • just shity wah. This sucks as hell.

    Epic fail!

  • @MrEllinaras Epic suck my dick bitch
