Earth Song - Guitar - Sam Laming

[xojaney]

omg, that was actually amazing !

i loveee it : )

[thebagy]

Awesome!!! maybe with a litlle more delay would sound even better.

[gh0sst]

Finish this song and you will receive a cookie from me :)

Please finish it! :)

[philosoful]

@gh0sst

My guitar has huge, HUGE un-touchstyleable strings on it now and my other guitar has fanned frets thus I haven't played Touchstyle in ages sadly. Need a guitar specifically for it really as my guitars are all set up quite strangely (on purpose). Thanks though! I hope to recieve your cookie some day but I'm not sure it'll be soon sorry!

[Dragslo]

Wonderful! Do you always make the songs in tapping version? Just curious, it's amazingly good!

[philosoful]

@Dragslo

Thanks! Nah, I haven't even played like this in ages now thanks to string sizes I now use (way too much tension to tap easily). I'd just hear a song and think !!! that could work with touchstyle... then work it out. This one worked out quite nice but like I said I haven't played like this in quite a while.

[YottaShiteMitaiNa]

WOW absolutly great , i should practice a bit and finaly you'll get the right performance :D

[philosoful]

@YottaShiteMitaiNa

Thank you! That's all it is, practise practise practise. Yes, certain things can make things easier but really, you'll find those out on your way if you practise enough.

[gaby2aguitare]

nice but thats not finish !!!

[MrLastRepublic]

You're good and I love your Guitar !! XD

[teslasays]

I been trying to figure this out myself. Good work. Hope you got it down by now. You should post it if do!

[philosoful]

Beware my transposition inclues the 7th string/low B.

Thanks and no I haven't, can't play touchstyle on my guitar now, I use a .095 for the Low B etc and such tight strings don't work very well for touch style, as well as higher action (all in the name of tone!) So I'll have to get a new guitar for touchstyle, of which, I have a Conklin 8 string coming in 3 weeks... mwahahahahahaaaaaa

[LegatoMax]

Totaly amazing!!! Keep going! I want to listet full version!

[funakaman]

Im love it!

great

[nerv1nicht1]

great

super

[berty223]

beautiful cover :)

[hardyzfan123]

whats your equipment? five fucking stars btw

[philosoful]

Danke!

Can't remember what strings here but Ernie Ball all the way now, upon an Ibanez RG2077XL (now discontinued) through Cordial cables to a Diezel Herbert with the TC Electronics G-Force in the loop for ambient chorus/reverbs as shown in this video into a Diezel 4x12 cab. 4x12 = hassle though and I'm selling it soon for an Earcandy 2x12 I'm getting soon. Nothing to do with the quality, Diezel rules, just too big. May get a Diezel 2x12 in time but probably not for a while yet!

Thanks again!

[Misanthropia666]

man that was really really awesome, when do you think the tab will be done??

[philosoful]

Misanthropia666 I haven't bothered with the song to be honest, there's so much more fun stuff to play I think, it's a cool song no doubt but fact is I'm in no rush, work it out yourself from midi file imports, it's fun : ]
