Wolfmother - "Joker And The Thief" Cover By EXE

[nicoklll]

loser

[edaboladik]

nice.

[greenbayunited11]

you guys are idiots. hes not actually playing the song. his fingers dont match with the song even if it is a bad camera.

[snookerkingexe]

@greenbayunited11 On wich point it shouldn't match? I'm surprised, that you didn't realize the differences to the original song in terms of sound and tone ...

[unholyfarter]

@greenbayunited11 yeah so he stood there, recorded this video, and put it on youtube, all to impress a bunch of people on the internet? people who say videos are fake are retarded. it woulda taken more time to fake it then to learn the real song. grats u fail at failing.

[asianguy438]

@greenbayunited11 dude, cant u HEAR how there are occasional pauses in the cover when the original song doesn't have any?? there are still a few mistakes in the cover, dumb fuck

[RedTV8888]

@greenbayunited11 youre the idiot. if you knew even the slightest bit about playing guitar you would know that he was playing the song. he was just playing the D on E string which is where the guy from wolfmother plays it. so he was playing it the exact way that it was written.

[entoxicado666]

what amp do you use and settings? my amp is a marshall mg100dfx but my settings make the sound look like shit

[snookerkingexe]

@entoxicado666 As this vid is a little bit Old, I dont know 100% the Amp settings of this :( But I know, that I used the UK '80s Amp Model of this VOX AD 15 VT with some Reverb ... some gain indeed^^ ... And of course Ihave no Idea which settings you might use, because every Amp-Model is different from the other and the only timeI tested the MG100 every settings sounds like shit ... thats why I never played or bought it ;)

Greetings!

[element2317]

good cover doood

[deathyou9000]

around 1:40 your playing at a higher temp then the song other then that a really good cover.

[shellylanette]

If that really is you playing, you rock:) AWESOME!!!

[Rockmusic4lfe]

awesome man im subscribing!!!!!! can u plzzz check out my vids plzzz

[ilke10]

it looks like your really bored

[anqusyounq]

its lagging :P

[snookerkingexe]

yup, this was recorded with a camera out of the past century xDxD damn ld thing, so its pretty shit^^

[o01R0NM4N0o]

hey on the chordy riff (chorus), are you doing hammer ons and pull offs?

[snookerkingexe]

you mean the playin in the 12th fret region? No, I don't use any HOs/PUs there, every chord is strummed ;)

Greetings!

[dad5004]

i beleive its a slide

[Bmxboylikesktlz]

NICE!

[thedavezammitproject]

nice man

im thinkin of coverin this song.. not sure if im good enough tho.. can u check my vid and tell me whether i am? :S

5 stars (Y)

[AGenericAccount]

Dude, can you play an E power chord? If true, then yes, you can play this song.

[thedavezammitproject]

lol is this song really that simple??

what about the intro and chorus bits? :S they sound hard.

[AGenericAccount]

haha, it's really that simple. The intro is just hammer ons on the d and g string, and the solo is ridiculously simple.

[higgininja]

The "climb down" part is just. 5 on the "A." then 7 5 4 5 4 on the d, back to the "A" 5 3, back to the d 7 5 4 5 4, to the a 7 5, back to the d 7 5 4 5 4, to the a 5 3 and so on

[bobjrj101]

great cover and tarn54321, its obvious hes actually playing and he could have just dubbed the lyrics, piano and drum like everyone else does. watch 47-49 seconds on this vid then the same part on the real song. you'll hear the difference

[andrewshanebrown]

@tarn54321 ever heard of a backing track?

[airspecialop]

Echt cool, Ich wuensche Ich koennte so gut spielen :)

[KNRIOO]

good cover buddy! how about "The White Unicorn"? pretty good song too

[AdamAndDavidShow]

sweet i can caover just as good, its a realy cool song huh?

i gotta say its hard to keep the speed in the 4x hammer-on part

where do you live, if its close enough maybe we can jam sometime, i know it sounds weird but i've met more ppl on youtube that are near me(michigan) than i can count

i have a epi les paul special 2 in tobacco burst

yours is an epi g400 right, or is it a gibson?

[snookerkingexe]

lol, I live in leipzig, germany ... maybe a little too far away^^ ANd yes, its a Epiphone G-400 ;)

Greetings!

[AdamAndDavidShow]

k, well thx, and koodos :)

[NHP890]

Yeah I can play this :P

Except for the intro, i get lost in it easily :<

[tjtristan]

Just practice, you'll get it, eventually..!

[UsAndEmber]

amazing, I cant play shit on guitar, drums on the other hand...

[snookerkingexe]

yup, correct ;)

[motherrussia13]

is that gibson or eppiphone?

[snookerkingexe]

Its an Epiphone G-400

[Lumberjack8675309]

hey, nice cover, really clean for the most part, i wasnt expecting the scratching or the kill switching/ toggel (idk which it is) in the solo, but nice job either way, kick ass guitar

[Explosive337554]

aint fake you can hear it sounds different then the audio guitar sounds different

[o01R0NM4N0o]

also do you prefer to do alternate or downstrokes for the solo

[snookerkingexe]

I prefer the alternate Version^^

[o01R0NM4N0o]

also is that a gibson or epiphone?

[snookerkingexe]

Its an Epiphone G-400

[o01R0NM4N0o]

in the main riff on the twelf fret are you using hamer ons and pull ofs

[snookerkingexe]

No, I think I strum every Part in the Main Riff, so no HOs or POs

[MuseareAmazing]

he's obviously playing!

why would he post something that he didn't really do. you guys need to have more faith in guitarists.

[twiggymac]

u can hear the difference between his guitar and the master track. i guess some less musically honed people can't hear it

[dragonrampardt7]

great cover. beast guitar too lol. i have it in bass form...eb-0 ftw lulz

[m0n3y1g0t]

why do ppl belive hes playing this totally fake no offense i dont hear ur guitar!!!!!

[snookerkingexe]

Well, then you are barren I guess. You can clearly hear some timing-problems in the beginning and some Bendings in the Solo, which are not 100% correct. Th guitar you here IS mine ;)

Greetings and thanks anyways^^

[m0n3y1g0t]

yeah i didnt mean to offend u just putting that out

[lupercio49]

maybe hes just better than you :), great cover man

[o01R0NM4N0o]

of course hes playing it you doush, just searcfh the tab and look at the solo. from this you can clearly see hes playing at the right part of the guitar and that the solo ends on the 19th fret after a hamer on and pull of, which he does!

[m0n3y1g0t]

ok thankz for starting shit cause i said no offense its just a lag what ever

[cland32]

is that angus young's guitar

[oemzo]

Nice hair..

Lolzz..

Amp settingss..?

[snookerkingexe]

As this vid is a little bit Old, I dont know 100% the Amp settings of this :( But I know, that I used the UK '80s Amp Model of this VOX AD 15 VT with some Reverb ... much gain indeed^^

[Brennan54]

totally awesome dude!!!

[Explosive337554]

did you use a phaser?? Buzz??

[snookerkingexe]

Nothing of both .. as mentioned earlier ;)

Greetings

[Hurley2122]

the intro is easy...easier than thunderstruck at least

[letshakehands]

I can do that riff at the start, about 4 times and then my hands start to go all weird, and I can't carry on. fair play to you.

[777TheDevilsAdvocate]

Does anyone know how to make the scratching sound when your on the 18th fret on the G string? Thanks

[ZomBeast666]

hold on you can play this but not the intro to thunderstruck come on man

[rayray2207]

nah i gotta agree with this guy even though people are thumbing him down.

he's fucken right... thunderstruck has to be the simplest intro ever. that doesnt mean it doesnt sound bloody good.

good doesnt have to be complicated. creating a great sound from something simple is a wonderful thing.

look at coldplay. another perfect example. simple but really solid sound.

[snookerkingexe]

Wooord! Well said man! I totally agree!

[2thriller2]

I play it as good as you but the great difference is in the amp and effects. Ya nailed it man!! It was excellent and sounded like Wlfmthr! I liked it... And dya have an idea of how to obtain this sound on a fender amplifier... I know you put reverb but is there any phaser or other effects?

Peace out and nice job!

[snookerkingexe]

uhh .. hard to say. I would say: Try and hear and try^^ I think you could use much gain for this .. reverb and yeah a phaser might be a good idea. As this vid is a little bit Old, I dont know 100% the Amp settings of this :( But I know, that I used the UK '80s Amp Model of this VOX

Hope it helps a bit ;) Greetings!

[moser8]

damnn.

where did you get the effect?

[snookerkingexe]

Its the UK '80s Ampmodel of the Vox AD15VT with some reverb ... nothing more^^

[JimmyPatrickYoung]

I love this song and I think you did a good job man. =) rock on...wolfmother <3

[Benisben33]

nice job

[sacklaus441]

ur fake

[hironistelrooy]

cause u suck. Hes good. You dont know how hard this is and the amp is sick

[rayray2207]

ur an idiot. yeah he did a good job. but this song is in no way hard. well no songs are hard, but wolfmother were an extremely simple band that played good music. there music is essentially very simple

[hironistelrooy]

I know its easy but are you saying Guitar is easy? Fine lets see you do a cover for the song Idols and Anchors full song

[rayray2207]

yeah i am saying guitar isnt hard. any song that has been done can be practiced over and over and til you get it right, even the most complex of songs, it just takes dedication. just because someone can play joker and the thief doesnt mean they are as good as andrew stockdale because no one else came up with that song but andrew stockdale, it was his original creative input. doesnt mean it has to be technical to sound good. simplicity is good and it does sound good.

[asianguy438]

@rayray2207 and i dont know a SINGLE person that can sing just like their singer, its just PERFECT for this song, the singing style is so unique!!!

[joker000055]

Great Jo..........ive covered it before but not as well as you

[AnimatorTim]

Were you mean to miss out the b in job? lol

[agent00redneck]

I thought it was pretty good...

[antugay]

is not so good....

[Bunechunk]

yeah okay...its spot on but its "not so good"...that sure makes sense *sarcasm

[snookerkingexe]

yup your right with the track-volume, since I have no bigsby I couldnt make such noises :( And I didn't use some pedals, I was just going nuts :D:D

Thanks man!

[warchamp]

Nice playing dude, but next time turn the song down a bit, its hard to differentiate what your playing and the song(since you got the tone so close). In the solo you didnt do all those tremelo noises and the other misc noises, but it looks like you did(hidden pedals????).

[TomRS13]

best song ever. period

[IaNdAcRiPwAlKa]

very nice cover

[GuitarPenguin16]

YOU ARE FUCKIN AMAZING

I really wanna learn this song now

I heard it before and I love it

be proud of yourself man

great job!!!!!!

[AntiEmoPunker666]

nice job.....i covered this song at a show i played once....it sounds sweet and it's super easy

kudos

[guitarsk8er239]

that song is sooooo easy but soooooo sick

[raynes94]

can someone tell me how to do thos weird scraping type noises in the solo?

[chrisjoe01]

I love this song, but until I looked at it for real, I never noticed how easy it was. Still, great job! =]

[SubaruRally555]

its not that easy lol

[Spathizilla]

it is

[a7xrocker678]

yeah it really is

[ChainLettersSuck]

damn that intros so fun on guitar. too bad i can't even play it that fast. i've only been playing for a month. i'm a guitar n00b :P.

[mrijfi]

lol its all pluck hamer on pluck hamer on=]

[tonytonyvo]

It's pick, hammer on hammer on

[Drumtariano]

I hav the same exact guitar.

Good job btw.

[shynkz]

i cant tell whether you're playing this really good or if the backing track is really loud lol

great job tho

[MasterCrisis]

Hey, is it a Gibson SG9 rec classic?

[snookerkingexe]

No, "just" the Epiphone G-400 ;) But I love it!^^

[MasterCrisis]

Oh, I see, well it looks like a SG there :D

Nice cover btw..very nice :P

[blackstars26]

[snookerkingexe]

Its the UK '80s Amp Modell of the Vox Ad 15 VT with some Reverb ... I didn't remember the EQ Settings, sorry

Greets!

[juicyj56]

for the intro is it 0 0 5h7 or 0h5h7

[snookerkingexe]

its 0h5h7 ;)

[chrisgibson92]

hey dude very good job on this!

and i agree with you its better to play well than to look good with the guitar around your ankles hah!

keep it up

[ruia87]

nice work... the song is quite simple...but nice work with the tone kepp rock

[stever330]
