  • Con este video aprendi mi primera cancion de u2 con una guitarra desconectada que buenos recuerdos :)

  • NICE!

  • @Trevorstark Hi Larry

    Can you tell me where can I find this awesome Bt?

  • still the best ! very very nice

  • great cover ! :O)

  • Hello trevorstark. Nice video, nice cover. I like the ac30 sound. Very close to the edge. Was it just the guitar signal into a delay pedal and then to the ac30? What kind of settings did you used on the pedal and the amp?

    Regards from the netherlands.

  • @haraldamsterdam1988 Thanks man! You are right, guitar - delay - ac30. I have no idea what the pedal settings were, it was 4 years ago :) It is a Boss DD3. The old ac30 doesn't have a lot of knobs, it was just really loud! Groeten uit Florida.

  • @Trevorstark Hey Trevorstark. Thanks for your reply/answer. I'm sure the old vox amps didn't had a lot of knobs. Was there any gain or EQ settings ons it? What settings did you set them?

    Vox Amps are loud, i want a vox amp myself. But they're quite expensive. Haha nice you talk some dutch.

    You're from holland, or you just know how to say 'regards from florida' ? haha.

    Groeten uit Amsterdam

  • @haraldamsterdam1988 Ik ben inderdaad een Nederlander. De Vox heeft geen topboost (1965). Bas is maximaal en treble halverwege. De Vox klinkt beter als het luid is. Gegroet maar weer :)

  • @Trevorstark Haha wat leuk. Wat spookt u daar uit in florida? Ge-emigreerd? Ik begreep uit artikelen over vox amps dat er op de vroegere modellen geen gain controller zat? Wanneer de volume luid was dat hij een beetje kraakt/gain krijgt? Zat er geen middle tone op? U bent niet doof geworden van het harde geluid en omdat u er zo naast zat? Gr uit het regenachtige Nederland waar de herfst net begonnen is.

  • @haraldamsterdam1988 Geemigreerd inderdaad. Geen middle tone op de Vox. Er zijn 3 verschillende inputs, clean, normal en tremelo. Nee ik ben er niet doof van geworden, het was "ear candy"!!

  • @Trevorstark Dat kan ik geloven ja, goeiemorge wat klinkt dit mooi!

  • Its just great. I was looking for chord instructional and this is perfect I didn't even switch to another one. Really good.

  • This is probably the best cover I've seen and I love your AC30! Guitar and music VERY WELL MIXED together. I'd appreciate you checking out my channel sometime too. Look forward to more videos from you!

  • @u2adrian1000 Thanks man!

  • There we go! Pleasent.

  • This is awsome!

  • @Trevorstark How old is your ac30?

  • @Rafal102able from 1965, it's an AC30 Super Twin

  • You is TREVORSTARK or ROBINVANES.

    SEE THE CHANNEL IT. YOUR VIDEOS ARE THERE.

  • @carlosjacir yes i saw it, so that is another 25000 views ... :) Oh well, what can you do about it... anyway, thanks man.

  • what is your gear please thks

  • thanx, that helps a lot!!!

    cheers pete

  • Sounds awesome - definitely the best cover of this song I've seen anywhere, Just a quick question about the main riff. Do you play the D string on the 9th fret, or are you muting it, sounding only the B and G strings? Thanks!

  • great cover, Vox and Fender : what a dream team !! ;-))

  • Best cover on the tube!. Clean and Awesome!

  • i love the music...is beatifull

    

  • @Trevorstark Can I ask you about your setting from amp for U2 Pride?

  • @Rafal102able The old amp has not many knobs...:) So there is not a lot to say about that. It was really cranked up to give it that bite.

  • @Trevorstark Hi

    What do you think about Vox Pathfinder 15R?

    Which from cheaper Vox amplifiers is the most similiar to AC30?

  • Well done! Great, clean sound. I'm blown away. Thanks for posting.

  • @SmokeDogg11 Thank you! :)

  • They can hide his but not his talent... up yours utube

  • Ohhhh thats the sydney live version! :)

  • awesome - great job dude

  • great crisp sound. By far my favorite song ever and you nailed it

  • @Trevorstark What a clean tone .

    What efect processor do you use?

  • @Rafal102able Please check the older comments, the answers should be there! :) Thanks man!

  • @Trevorstark You have the best covers of U2 on Youtube. Pride and Bad cover are amazing.

    I learn to play on guitar from your covers.

    Very good job

  • I watch this once a day lol... AMAZING!

  • @liroyals4 Cool!! Thanks for watching! :)

  • May God Bless You!!

  • what are you using for pedals? and the vox chime is right on...

  • Beautiful. Simply amazing. keep it up 

  • GREAT JOB!!!!. You definitely have the U2 Edge town down.

    I just picked up a Fender Hot Rod Deville 212 this evening. I think I am going to take it back and upgrade to the Vox AC30. Thx for sharing.

  • Total klasse, als alter U2-Fan bin ich begeistert

  • This one is like the original or even better.

    Just great.

  • pure u2 and AMAZING!! i have a washburn with 2x Humbuckers can i play exactly/similar like you? and except delay what else of effects i should use?

  • AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @blondie81566 Thank youuuuu!!! :)

  • Is the guitar tunes down? It's not in true key it seems.....

  • @clebo99 You are right! It is tuned 1/2 step down.

  • @Trevorstark Cool...I still can't seem to do it even though you are showing it very clearly.  The "bar" chord doesn't seem to work for me. Very nice....

  • Comment removed

  • same tuning as in rattle & hum live version

  • What delay do you use? Thanks :)

  • @bluepingu345 For this video I used the Boss DD3.

  • @Trevorstark Thanks :)

  • from wich live show is this i thought you did the vertigo tour live from chicago, but then i heard Marthen Luther King.

  • You have a sound exelente, and the truth is one of the best cover of pride that exists in the Internet, friend queria to know of where sacastes this track, me pudes to say to look for her and to unload it or of where the sacastes this track regards friend

  • you nailed this. even tempo, A+

  • top notch

  • I've seen a lot of 'Pride' covers but this is probably the most accurate. The sound is really clean, more than the original version, exellent... sounds proffesional. Have you made the backtrack aswell?

  • Thanx for sharing!!! where i can find  the track you used to play this song?

  • Brilliant!

  • hey, where did you get the backing track from? it sounds awesome!

  • Very good :)

  • very very very very gooooood *-------*

  • coold you write the tabs please? i´m not sure about them

  • molto buono .bravo!

  • Trevorstark can i ask an easy question....are the pickups on that guitar of the lace sensor variety...if so what models are they...i think they are identified by colours. My son Has a mexican strat...and i was thinking about upgrading the pickups. Thanks.

  • @LockyTheRocker They are Lace Sensor Gold.

  • badass dude, if edge ever calls in sick, you definitely got the gig!

  • Fender best guitar in the world because if you make it sing you can play anything. Great Job ...THX...

  • tone is so swwweeeeet :) ... whak kind of pickups are you using? they look like the david gilmour's one

  • caspita bellissimo suono complimenti...!!!

  • Nice! This song is so simple, yet one of the best ever.

  • Good very good!!!

  • By far the best U2 covers ever! I watched all these like a couple years ago but I just got a new Fender Am Standard so had to refresh.

  • Have to agree with several other reviewers that this is the sweetest cover of Pride on YouTube! I already have a couple of decent backing tracks for this tune but I was wondering if you could tell me where you got your backing track with the MLK voice over...

  • What I am asking myself: How do you manage to strike only the 4th and 5th string when playing the main riff? If I try to hit no other but the two strings, I play lame. If I try to play more freely, I end up playing the 3rd and 6th string. Okay, I can mute the 6th with the left hand, but still... Is it just a matter of practice?

  • @webstercarlington Yes, you'll get a hang of it.

  • How do you call thay delay effect, kinda sounds like an echo? thanks!

  • You bastard. That is perfect.

  • u rock man!! awsome cover, great quality, perfect effects. best on YT :) Keep on!!

  • Truly Fantastic Trevor - keep it up!

  • fantastic tone

  • if the edge couldnt make it to a concert, you could play! it sounds perfect! 5*

  • Man that sounds great! Awesome cover!

  • Well played.

  • Loved it too ;D

  • Hey man congratulations. It´s the best Pride cover i´ve seen so far. I also recorded one here but I have some limitations since I don´t have a good gear. You could also make a cover of Where the Streets Have no Name. I´m sure it would be perfect. I would like to know where did you get that backing track. I have one here but the bass seems a bit hidden.

  • whats ur delay settin ?

  • mate I just want to congratulate you on how you perfected this. I've watched many guitar covers of this song and this one just tops it all. Do you have any other guitar covers? Request: Where the streets have no name :) well done and keep it up!

  • you are playing awesome 

  • you are awesome!

  • @WhatMaxThinks Thank you!!

  • Hi Mate ! Thanks for your video. You are amazing when you play U2 !!! I listen you several times per day because I'm trying to learn this song. I have a question : during the verse, do you play the 3rd and the last strings or only the 4th and 5th ?

  • You play very well

  • wow...very very good!!! delay time???tnx

  • Geweldig man, idd echt de beste uitvoering op Youtube!

    De sound, de feel, de tone, delay settings etc, alles klopt gewoon!

    Perfect

  • wow this is great .

  • can you send me a TAB not the music the soda, I'm thirsty?

    nice job! I need a VOX.

  • love your tone!

  • wow what clean sound!

  • Larry: how come the 1/2 step tune down to E-flat? Yours is one of the best YT vid lessons I've seen yet, even though it is not in the same key as U2. Thanks!

  • In my favorites.

  • good playing !

  • hi ,how do you names this gitar????

  • Fender Strat Plus! i just got one myself :D

  • @wenbinbin2010 ,thank you so much , do you write to me tabulatures of this songs ???

  • @jurek391 You can write U2's "gitar" player The Edge, and he'll not only write you the tabs, but he'll also fly you and 5 other guests to anywhere you choose and give all of you personal lessons!

    If you can't figure out Pride from this video lesson, tabs will not help you.

    What culture are you from that believes everything should be free & easy?

    It's not USA or Ireland!

  • @pr3egl my bad, Larry: as we age, our voices are unable to hit those higher notes..

    as is the case of Bono: the newer versions are in E-flat...but the guitars are de-tuned.

    Great job either way!

  • absolute best cover i've ever seen of Pride :D you sure you're not Edge's cousin or something? :)

  • Smooth cover! sweet

  • The best cover of Pride I've senn on here yet. Nice clean tone, tight and sweet. Bravo!

  • Hey, Nice Tone! I have two questions if you could help I would appreciate it. One, how do you feel about the rosewood neck and it's tone compared to a maple on a strat? Two, What channel do you play through on your AC30? If Top boost what do you set the treble, bass, and cut at? Thanks.

  • Nicely done.

    I enjoy listening to your rendition. It's bang on, and the sound is directed line in. Very nice balance. I look forward to Bad, and others.

    Thank you.

    Marc

  • what's the delay time that you use? and, of course, it's not just a clean guitar effect... can u tell me how can i do something like this with a zoom 505II? thanks!!

  • Hi, it really is just a clean guitar, no overdrive. Just the amp and an old Boss delay. I boosted the volume a bit with an eq-pedal. Also no modulation on the delay so everything is pretty basic here. I don't really remember the delay time cause i filmed it a long time ago but i guess it should be around 410 - 420 ms. I'm sorry i can't help you with the Zoom, I never tried it. Thanks man!

    --Larry--

  • So basic like this? With an eq-pedal and a good delay I can do this? and what about Bad? i'm thinking about buying new stuff, but nothing expensive hehe... i have the Zoom and a DD from Behringer

  • @tomatepesado

    an eq pedal's not essential, just a delay, I'm sure your zoom can do that.

  • @tomatepesado

    the magic number is 45000! For 'the edge' sound, divide 45000 by the bpm (in this case 108 I think) and that gives the delay time in ms (for 108bpm that comes out at 417ms)

    hope that helps!

  • @tomatepesado I got sweet delay settings on my zoom. If you want my settings, pm me :)

  • From a huge U2 fan! Very good! I wish I could do that! nhboata

  • AWESOME!!

    just listened to "bad", but this one is a killer!!!!

    fantastic!!!

  • Thanks man!

  • @Trevorstark mate, you better check Robinvanes, he stoll this vid and posted ffs

  • @thephantomsguest: yes i know he stole it but thanks for letting me know!

  • I wanna learn how to play the guitar so bad. Il get laid every day of the week

  • excellent travail !!!!!!

  • Nice guitar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • like it

  • Sir,

    You have NAILED it. Thank you!

  • its ironic cause bonos name is bono VOX and they use a VOX amp. also, bonos real name ISNT bono, its Paul lol

  • this is great

    how did you get only the drums and bass to play in the background i really want to try this

  • VOX is the same amp U2 uses so yea it makes it better :)

  • flawless man, great light touch,hats off

  • Great job man !! Im a drummer from Costa Rica and you have my vote. Cooool

  • @carmolva I'm a bass player from Costa Rica! and you have mine too

  • zeker 5 sterren waard

  • Mijn dank is groot...

  • I've listened to a lot of "Pride" clips on youtube, and you sir are the absolute best!

  • Don't tell me it was ALL the amp. That will make me want one even more..

    What kind is it?

  • fairplay, great replication of the edges tone

  • nice guiar :) nice cover:) 5/5

  • Comment removed

  • I really like your guitar sound and you play it very well. Nicely done.

  • very good 5/5 + fav

  • Great tone and tempo throughout. You capture all the phrasing of the original piece. Don't know how long you've worked on this, but it seems note for note perfect. Love the sustain from the transitions beginning at 0:58.

  • so great congrats guy !!

  • tab part from 1:52 - 2:10 please.

  • Use your ear! It´s very simple!

  • What tuning is the guitar in?

  • Muy bueno. genial!

  • are you using any distortion?

  • Are you using delay in this song

  • Yes i am.

  • best version i seen, good work man ^5

  • Bedankt voor het antwoorden. We hebben gisteren met de hele band jou video bekeken.Onze complimenten !! Die delay tijd hadden we ook al zo ongeveer berekend. omdat mijn drummer zonder clicktrack speelt gebruik ik de tap functie. Hij geeft me vier tellen vooraf zeg maar. De DD5 heeft geen display met het aantal ms vandaar. Laatste vraag. Gebruik je de delay instelling het hele nummer door? Inclusief solo etc? PS: dit is de overtuigenste U2 cover van Pride op youtube !!

  • De delay instelling gebruik ik het hele nummer door. Ik heb een sticker geplakt op mijn delay (om de knop die de ms aangeven) en streepjes gezet. Het is wat primitief, maar het werkt!

  • You should do 'KITE' and "ONE".

    Both would be perfect your playing!!!!! it's hard to find nice cover of those songs, but I'm sure you'd do it brilliantly!

  • Dude, you're a great musician and sound close to The Edge!! Amazing! And nice audio (of the video) too!

  • So maybe you can give me a little hint because I play exactly the same part . Thanks anyway and keep on rockin !!!!

  • Hello Trevor, I'm Marco from Holland and I want to say you that this sounds awesome. Very authentic The Edge sound !! Very good job. I've a question and maybe you can help me. I'm not actualy searching fot The edge's tone but his delay settings keep me awake for a long time. I set them at dotted eights and tap the tempo what my drummer gives me. I tweak down the feedback knob on my delay pedal ( Boss DD-5) but the notes are bouncing back to me when I do up and down strokes in the rythm part.

  • He Marco, bedankt voor de complimenten! De delay setting zal rond de 435 ms zijn denk ik. Zelf gebruik ik nooit de taptempo. Als je drummer wat te traag of te snel is, corrigeer het dan door de ms een beetje aan te passen. Werkt voor mij in ieder geval... :) Het aantal repeats zal ongeveer 2,5 zijn. Ik hoop dat dit wat helpt!

  • Good job. Well done!!! Matt.

  • Thanks man!

  • Great vid man, excellent adaptation of of effects and equipment! Going to see them tomorrow in Phoenix U2 360 Tour!

  • as if you hear U2 themselves

    Good job!

  • I don't get it. Myu guitar doesn't sound like yours. Is it tuned in some special way?

  • damn nice guitar, man. i got a standard green strat, and im gonna put in some gold lace sensors later this year. i was thinking about getting an AC15 amp sometime... AC30 is way too expensive! does the ac15 work well with u2?

  • He does defenitley not!

  • I think the AC15 will work perfect for U2 sounds!

  • aight thanks man

  • hey man if u get that ac 15 cud u post a video with ur guitar just into it and play some u2 songs or with delay or whatever im thinking of getting one as ac30 to expensive for me 2 also any1 how much of a diff Celestion Speakers make? Thanks

  • Ahhhhhh....Vox......great tone brotha....

  • In fact l could use this to learn the guitar part. Thanks.
