That is the holy grail kid - Playing so relaxed and in time with yourself that you make a picked scale sound like a sweep arpeggio - And you did it very fukin well!
even tho theyre not the best looking guitars, the neck feels really good on these guitars, good tone aswell, even tho you cant tell, i used a camera phone!
I think Sykes is awesome. One thing of note though. John did not play the Lead on Here I Go Again, Album Version. Whitesnake 1987. I allways thought he did but he was fired before he laid that down. I listen to it now and realize its so NOT a sykes solo. Its actually Adrian Vandenburg or possibly Vivian Cambell, Hired Hacks that they are. There is plenty of interviews with John that state this. He did write the song with coverdale and did all those awesome rythem tracks.
He's playing a Line6 Variax; digital modeling guitar. I have one also. They have no magnetic pickups, just a piezo on the saddles. Sounds like he's using the Les Paul model.
I thought the same thing as the guy above you until I read your response. I have heard about the Variax (being a Line 6 consumer myself Spider III 75) and I am fairly impressed by the sound. As mentioned by others, this guy has the solo pretty nailed too!!! Great job!
He has that slow John Sykes vibrato down! The electric models ie... Start, Tele, Les paul sound are awesome on the Variax. The acoustic models are average at best.
Dude you got that Sykes vibrato down! It's so much fun to do and since nobody knows who Sykes is (cryin' shame) you can just pretend it's your own vibrato... lol
Can anyone tell me why there aren't any tabs of the "still of the night" solo available on the internet, all there is available on tab is the chords of the song?
goodd

Can't find the tabs for this solo anywhere.... I had a copy 20 years ago
from I think guitar player or Guitar magazine and this part was way too hard to
even look at on the page... I always wondered if it was sped up but after seeing this vid I guess maybe it's just really fast

Hey! Nice job man.
I'm guessing thats a Line 5 setup your using? (Since I cant see a pickup)
Dont mind these foo's and their 'sloppy' comments.
The fact is, that solo is like a crashing wave of sonic intensity, and it IS "sloppy".
The only constructive criticism I might offer would be is to really go OTT with the Sykes vibrato.
It's open wider than a drunken cheerleader, and defines his sound!
:)
Once again, gratz.
