Deftones - Prince (guitar cover)

[janniwheeler]

Drop C?



[desertscoldmoon]

@janniwheeler standard from low F#

[guysofhell]

its good but your not hitting all the notes in the song, on the verse he picks out parts, your only hitting the feedback part. just saying.

[desertscoldmoon]

@guysofhell thanks man, I'm pretty sure those notes in the verses are Frank. because when I was watching live videos when I was leaning the album, I just saw Stef playing those harmonics.

[guysofhell]

@desertscoldmoon your probably right, anyways nice cover dude, keep rockin

[desertscoldmoon]

@guysofhell thanks dude

[desertscoldmoon]

@The000Roy thanks dude, I'm actually playing through Guitar Rig 4 software on my Mac. that's where all the sound is coming from.

[j19318]

Love that guitar man!!! I have the six with the reverse headstock!!! Same finish and I put some emgs in it!!! 81 and a 85!!! Great job!!! The only thing I play differently is the harmonics in the verse and I play the chorus with down strokes!!! Other than that, pretty solid!!! Sounds great!!!

[desertscoldmoon]

@j19318 hell yeah, I would LOVE to have the 6 string version, your'e lucky man. thanks for the good words dude!

[NeverFoundWolf]

hey can you email me the tabs @ mdunn2093@yahoo.com i cant find acurate ones anywhere and your fretboard doesnt have markings lol

[desertscoldmoon]

@NeverFoundWolf sorry man, I don't have tabs. I figured the whole album out by ear, not saying that it's accurate or anything haha.

[edcock7]

awesome covers dude! what kind of guitars do you use? i wanna get one but idk anything about it

[desertscoldmoon]

@edcock7 thanks man! this guitar is an ESP SC607 LTD. it's Stef's signature 7 string.

[MyScaryScrotum]

Great cover! Did you have any troubles fitting the .68 into the tuning peg at all?

[desertscoldmoon]

@MyScaryScrotum thanks man! nah it fit in just fine although way back when I first got the guitar I was messing with a super heavy .76 or something and I think I had to bore it just a very little bit.

[deftonesfan192]

what tuning is this album in then? Also what gauge strings are you using im having trouble finding a decent one the strings either start getting to slack or they feel too thick... What are you using here:?

[desertscoldmoon]

@deftonesfan192 its in F# B E A D G B E. im using .68 .56 .46 .36 .26 .17 .13 hope that helps man.

[deftonesfan192]

@desertscoldmoon Ouch thyre heavy strings man, what company strings then Ernie ball ones?

[desertscoldmoon]

@deftonesfan192 haha yeah. yeah i love ernie ball.

[ragonel]

[bigjstuckinkaos]

I have to stop watching you damn I hate myself as a player more and more haha

[desertscoldmoon]

@bigjstuckinkaos haha! nah man, its all good.

[polishskaterdude32]

he Hits the strings on the top of the neck where the machine heads are!

[desertscoldmoon]

@polishskaterdude32 yeah stef does that on digital bath too. i just like the sound of the harmonics ha

[j19318]

Good job. I have the six string version of your guitar, same color, with the reverse head stock. I want your guitar bad. Then I would have a 6 and 7.

[desertscoldmoon]

@j19318 thanks man. yeah i wanted one of his 6 strings and now you can buy them. shit suuucks. oh well. maybe one will pop up on ebay haha

[alexpintea]

really cool covers man, keep it up!!

one question: how do you tune your guitar when palyding diamond eyes stuff, is it standard 8 string tuning F#,B,E,A etc?

[desertscoldmoon]

@alexpintea thanks dude. yeah i have it tuned 8 string standard, minus the high E obviously.
