  • so you don't really need a 7 strings to play this song... it's shredding time!!!!

  • can't wait for new Loomis record :P

  • Did you keep the guitar stock or get it setup to eflat tuning with 9's string guage?I Just got the guitar and it came with standard tuning and 10's I believe. Awesome playing, im trying to learn this right now.

  • Sweeping like a Janitor.....

  • Holy fuck! AWESOME!!!!!!!!

  • I bet Your a Malmsteem Fan

  • Well done me boy !!!

  • haahahaha this remind me to Pac-man

  • Good shit bro!!!!!

  • LOVE THE GUITAR G!!!!!!!!!!!! BEST 7 STRING EVER MADE!!

  • foda demais!

    esse cara deve ter demorado umas cinco semanas para pegar esse trecho...

    rsrsrsrs....

  • you play this crazy apreggio lick soooo smooth! seeing videos like this, make me miss my schecter loomis =,(

  • How do you get such a bright clear tone?

  • Fuck dude that was amazing !

  • i can do 1-12-24 really clean =)

  • you sweep perfectly!

  • @54631

    Well he is on the neck pickup I think, which makes any sweep sound clean... no matter good you are or how much you suck. Either way it was really good.

  • very impressive, could you play i will return by black dahlia murder?

  • @FieryGuitarD00D

    Why would he want to play that shit after learning such an awesome song from such a talented musician?

  • Why are the Finnish always the best?

  • Great arpeggio section out there, is better than the one this asphyx123 guy had lol

  • Sexy dude :D

  • nice tone! better playing!

  • where did you get the TABS?

  • dude i wanna get that guitar...dear god yes. but ive got relatively small hands. is the neck monsterous?

  • you look way better with long hair why did you cut it??

  • Sweet! I think this is the Ron Jarzombek (Spastic Ink) Solo that he added to the track on the album.

    If you haven't listened to Spastic Ink - Ink Complete

    or Spastic Ink - Ink Compatible

    They are 2 of the best progressive albums of all time. Honest, Ink Complete is bar none the cream of the crop

  • damn how'd u learn to sweep pick so well... haha.

  • damn niceee....

  • Hey look dude i am about to by a new guitar, i can buy a schecter atx solo 6 blackjack or Epiphone prophecy les paul ex. Which one is better?

  • arch enemy shirt?

  • Very kewl and clean, How do you like that signature? I was thinking of getting a 7 string and this seems like a good one to get!

  • @Googopqp Well I don't have a lot of experience about the other 7 Strings out there but for me this one seems perfect.

  • @RikuNiemonen woah! you just went straignt onto a seven string???

  • @RikuNiemonen well if you ever look into more 7 string guitars, I would recommend that you try the Ibanez RG1527

  • @unorthodox41 All the Ibanez 7's I have played sucked. The best 7 string guitar I have ever played (I've tried a lot) is the Rusty Cooley RC7. It blows all other guitars, even really great 7 strings like this Loomis guitar, out of the water.

  • @GitarrPwnz Which Ibanez 7s did you try? Most guitars are terribly set up in the guitar stores anyway, so I'm not surprised, I played a bunch that I thought sucked but it was just the shitty setup

  • @unorthodox41 I can vouch for this, the 1527 is far better than any other 7 string I've played.

  • Congratulations!

  • What amp do you use man? and as well pedal?

  • @ShredderEric Look at his channel

  • are you jeff loomis lost brother?

  • Good job man

  • Excellent work!

  • Your 17? Jesus you play like a god!

  • very clean. i love it.

  • Nice Job man, your one of the few guitarists on Youtube who can sweep CLEANLY!!!

    hahaha, check out my vids too man, I do some shreddin as well :)

  • Cleaner then I ever got it.

    I feel like that leaves a lot to be said though.

    Amazing Job will do it!

    Amazing job! Ha

  • pshh i can do that lmao. no really good job man keep shreddin

  • fucking amazing dude, this is my favorite part :P

  • that was very good =D

  • Nice man, great song

  • Amazing dude....very solid effort...

  • respect dude :)

    

  • wow

  • easy xp

  • dud how long have you ben playing

  • I don't know if you've tried it yet or not, but the main arpeggio section to This Godless Endeavor is extremely fun. The whole song is pretty fun to play, but the solo is a bit of a challenge.

  • @dlr113w Yes I have done it ;D Just watch my other videos.

  • yur no jeff loomis but that was fucking awsome, nice dude

  • very nice ... keep rocking ! :)

  • Duuude, that was even cleaner than he played at EMG-Tv...

    Sick!

  • REally clean ;)

  • also, would you have rather bought the one with the floyd rose?

  • Are you satisfied with this guitar (like would you choose an other guitar if you would buy one now instead of when you bought it)?

    I'm thinking about buying a 7 string :P

  • What amp are u using?

  • nice playing man, you would think at such a y young age they would use a talented young guy like you in the music business, but no they want Justin Beiber..

  • nice to see that someone else also has a hardtail version of the guitar :P

    amazing mate;)

  • Nice man!

  • this is where i ask how the hell your so good at sweeping...lol i just need more practice *very self-dissapointed sigh* \m/

  • hae man i was just just wondering.. ive always wanted a seven string but ive got relativly normal hand size so would the larger scale? my guitar has jumbo fretts and i can do streches from like 12-15-19.. but im not sure how big the diffrance of scale has.. if you get back to thatd be great thanks..

  • @imconfusd I have pretty small hands I think and I have no problem playing this guitar. I can easily do 12-15-19 with this one. It's just all about getting used to it.

  • @imconfusd The 7 string I just ordered has the same scale as my 6 string. THe fretboard is just wider so if your thumb goes around the back of the neck(like me) instead of resting in the middle it will take a little getting used to.

    I have small hands for a guy and its not to bad.

  • @imconfusd i can do 10-14-19 with jumbo on my schechter and jackson :>

  • @wakeandbakelol i can do 1-11-23 on my bass guitar without problems. there has to be something wrong with you all.

  • how old are u ?

  • @RikuNiemonen Damnnnn keep it up bro, im 16.. and working a lot on some necrophagist solo.. check some, u would like it

  • ur awesome! and grats for this awesome beast guitar! \m/

  • men were i obtain that guitar?

  • @TheMusikteller I do so believe that such a guitar is obtainable through most music websites and/or stores and yes i spoke like that for fun

  • Kicks ass.

  • nice tone man. sounds like loomis.

  • fuck yeah! i love that guitar too man. i want it so bad...

  • Fuck man, that was amazing. it looks so effortless. You must practice a lot.

    :p

  • great video. i like miles of machines better

    sick guitar

  • FUCK!!! This is Jeff Loomis Worthy!!! Holy shit! This would make him proud! And killer Axe! Keep up the shredding!!! \m/ \m/

  • siiiick! great technique!

  • Nice Shirt

  • Dude that was baller!!!!! So how are u Digen the 7 string???????

  • PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Nice guitar.

  • Awesome man!

  • Nice sweeping

  • that was awesome dude!! technically flawless,but what about something original?

  • check his lollipop solo

    good stuff

  • that gave me an erection 8=====3

  • @ibanezrgr420ex

    Your boner looks strange, dude.

    But yea, that was pretty sweet! \m/

    8==========D xD

  • perfect dude

  • Wow.

  • Well Done

  • SICK! I want to do that too :(

  • Where's Pat O'brian's solo? You gotta learn that part!

    Fucking sick job on the Loomis arppegios though.

  • Awesome job. I'm disappointed that you have a solid-bridge version of the Loomis model though.

  • why? :S the string thru is better tonally. (this is coming from an FR nut soo... yea.)

  • If you are going to get a signature model, why not get the one that actually resembles the one he plays is my point. The purpose of the floyd rose overrides the tonal benefits to me.

  • He actually does use the stringthru about half the time...

  • Sweep Picking is a very great thing stranger

  • Aw man, that's some amazing guitar and aforementioned guitar playing. I have a seven string, but not nearly as godly as that Schecter.

  • That was really really good. I can also play this solo, but not quite as clean as that, good work!!!!

  • so damn clean, almost sounds like jeff loomis himself, bravo (:

  • i got the hellraiser C7 great guitar its thr brst choice i made in guitar buying .

  • amazing bro

  • sweet, im thinking about getting a schecter 7 but not the loomis, too expensive, nice ass guitar though and great cover.

  • if "river dragon" and "this godless endeavor" had a baby...

  • you must have lots of cash... you have like all of the best signature models out there

  • fucking amazing dude. very very clean. nice tone too

  • This is probably the best 7 string guitar you can find, so if you want one, just take the J.L Sig, it's worth it !

    Not trying to do some comercial or what ever, but with all the research I did, let's say I found the same results as Riku ( I'd like to say your name instead but I only know you as RikuNiemonen xD ) since he got one too and that I was thinking of bying one a long time ago ! :D

  • Maybe you were asked this question already but how does this guitar play compared to your LTD?

  • well first it might feel a little weird because of the longer scale but when you get used to it it plays just great. Personally I think it's a better guitar than RL-600.

  • I see you become a big fan of loomis :D

  • Comment removed

  • Shit, I need to pretend I didn't see this because I feel like shit, HAHA!! Holy crap man, this is insane!

  • You shouldn't feel like shit dude !

    you're amazing and your covers are flawless ! ;)

    You're also one of my main insperations :D

  • Thanks! :-)

  • So dont u have any friends to start a band with?? And btw, education helps, so are u studying music somewhere?

  • Not really. I'm not stydying music anywhere.

  • Wow man! Can i ask, is playing guitar just a hobby for u or are u trying to get signed?

  • Well first of all I don't have a band so that's the problem. But I would say that playing guitar is more than a hobby for me.

  • @RikuNiemonen missäpäin asut

  • nice dude!awesome cover!can you cover the calamity by trivium and not alone by all that remains?

  • dude awesom man respect 5stars ^^.

  • Great playing as always ^^

    I was already planning on getting the loomis sig one months ago, but I'll have to wait next year or the year after to get it xD

    I want it with the floyd, but that's just a preference, what made you decide between floyd and fixed bridge ?

  • Well I didn't want to pay over 200 euros more just to get the floyd rose. And seriously I don't even use it that much and my RL-600 has a floyd rose. One thing is also that I find it very annoying to change strings to floyd rose guitar :D

  • yeah I guess your right, my guitar has a floyd rose too so I guess I'll go for the fixed brigde, seems like this guitar has awesome tones and that it plays very well, I watched lots of videos about this guitar and I'm convinced that it's a great guitar, and even more since you said it's the best guitar you've played lol

    and yeah, changing strings is a pain lol

  • thats it mate you convinced me

    im gettin one

  • this video is pointless??? haha whatever

  • this is fuckin awesome you really know how to play man! would you recommend the schecter with the fixed bridge?

  • I highly recommend it because this is the best guitar I have played.

  • Perfect!

  • nice riku!! new and well done cover of yours! your new guitar is really cool though, but if the passive pickup is a problem on rl600 why dont you replace it for an active then? i have an rl600 too and i think that the active pickup sounds much better too, its a shame that rl600/alexi models use emghz...oh well =S

  • Nice! Is that version with floyd rose?

  • No this one is with standard bridge.

  • smokin HOT schecter! how much was it??

  • It was 870 euros.

  • uhm, ohm ahhhh

    increidble dude, as usual... as expected.

    do you have any tip or excercise to help me not only make my fingers swifter but to kind of learn to sweep? im 2º guitar and want to improve my soloing and else. Please!

  • Start out slowly and then try to increase the speed. But remember it takes months and months to get it really going. And if you play arpeggios slowly and for example your pinky feels weak and you can't control it you must strenghten it.

  • NIIICEE :|

    You're amazing and you have 2 amazing guitars.

  • i subscribed to you a long time ago because you always play the pieces of music i try and learn, but your just fucking awesome.

  • joo kyllä lähtee..

  • Awesome Dude! Sweet guitar, You still got the Roope one?

  • I have it. But after getting used to this guitar I really noticed how much better the active pickups sounded. The passive pickup propably works better with Roopes setup but with my amp the actives sound just so much better. Also this guitar has massive sustain.

  • So Roopes has Passives? I thought it had actives.....

  • it's a passive EMG HZ H2. But he sometimes uses active pre-amps in the loop somewhere. If you ask me, Riku's 'roope guitar' tone sounds amazing anyway!

  • that's sick!!!

  • fucking great cover

    great guitar
