i dont get how people alternate pick so well. i can play this song okay but it's all downpicking and i know itd be easier if i learned to alternate. can anyone give me a good song to practice alternate picking on?
@qwaker88 It's extremely hard to play at EXACTLY half the speed such that when you speed it up 2 times more it matches perfectly with the track. If he could do that, I think it makes him even better haha
@qwaker88 dude who ever u are!! first of all if it had been x2 his tone would've been shit... secondly what he said is totally correct ...thirdly .. ure just jealous of him...
@eyeslikenova Active pickups definitely sound a lot more crispier and more full than passive pickups. It's all personal preference but my suggestion is to get something with active pickups.
@qwaker88 Seriously? hahaha this song isn't that hard. I don't think I would go out of my way to play the song at half speed then to speed it up x2. Do you think I blinked extremely slow on purpose too?
Nice playing and awesome Jackson guitar. I have one myself but it has the 3 Duncan Designed pickups, bridge, middle, neck. Also I can't get it to drop tune that well for some reason. Does your Jackson have Grover tuners? Mine has the Jackson stock tuners same with the Jackson Floyd. I have the one with the custom flames and the Japanese Kanji on it. Is that a discntinued model? I got it used like a few years ago and it still plays like new, its beat up here and there but thats ok.
@hecknot14 Most of ABR is in C.. With a few exceptions. A few song ong Thrill Seeker are in either D or standard. Then Little Drummer Boy is in like G or something.
hey check out my covers of abr n black keys (more to come) this isnt a plead to get views, just a plead to learn from my mistakes. greatly appreciated KRUXX
lol. i just heard your friend's band - In Reference To a Sinking Ship. Well.. Its fucking awesome. I thought my band was any good. i was kinda wrong i guess xD
Ahhh...i remember when I used to think this song was incredibly hard to play.....back in the day hahahaha. I think i commented here saying how hard this song was. Like 2 years ago. Now it's easy :) Very fun to play though.
@TheeDevilWearsPrada Tbh this would be hard for experienced players as well, if they aren't used to this playing style, the off time notes and stuff just frustrate you sooo much :P
nice very nice. i have seen many of your august burns red covers, you are amazing, i strive to play like you(hope that didnt sound a little bit creepy) those august burns red songs are a challenge to play, and it looks like you have gotten just about all of them down! subcribe, and a like and if i could 5/5 AWESOME JOB (btw wat kind of jackson is that?)
Nice playing. Hey, whats a good search to find some hardcore guitar lessons? I've been trying to get a Bullet For My Valentine and August Burns Red kinda sound lately. I also gota Jackson, it has custom flames and Japanese writing on the body. I also got me a new Schecter Damien 6 FR guitar, a Dean EVO Special, and a Cruzer Crafter ST-80 guiar. The amp/effcts I use is a Traynor DG30G amp and a DigiTech Heavy Metal Masters distortion pedal. Anyway, thanks for the tip on that.
the only problem for me on this song is playing it clean. Alternate picking from basically every string perfectly is so annoying. I get it some times but no matter how many times I play it i miss one string and hit another. RAWR
@SuperMetalLuigi7896 what the hell are you talking about? He plays every note exactly how they play it. Cmon are you tone deaf. Just shut the fuck up and don't critiize people.
I dont think I could ever play any ABR bcuz when I play songs when you gotta move your fingers alot my pinky always starts to get stiff and hurt like crazy haha..
@Seife1312 ich lerne den song auch gerade...also hab jetzt den 2. tag dran verbracht (vl. insgesamt 3 stunden) ...ich denk...ich werd vl. noch 1 bis 2 wochen üben müssen um ihn so spielen zu können wie der kollege aus den staaten

It really does limit what you can play, and trust me, the longer you put it off - the more you'll regret it.
