  • Everything after 1:19 is fucking wrong. :)

  • Absolutely, indisputableney, an awesome version of this. Fuckin' nailed it hugely!  Thanks for the post old mate.

  • I thought this was finger picked, but maybe not?

  • those inlays are fuckin cool. i want that guitar. maybe not in yellow...

  • cool!

    

  • All alternate picked? Very impressive. Much better than sweeping.

  • Best cover I have seen so far!

  • The first version I see that's alternate picked in stead of sweeped. Kudos!

  • the fretboard is actually maple but it caught fire from the friction created because he was playing so fast.

  • you got the last note wrong man.

  • @colinharris05 You have to be a mere god to hit that last note.

  • And if harsh criticism can make him grow into a real guitarist, than I'll be that asshole

  • What it comes down to is peeyong is a fantastic guitarist. But he failed the piece by speeding up from adrenalin or whatever. It's not that he can't do it, that's not the issue, it's that his next obvious step as a growing musician is to play in time.

  • Nice Chibanez!

  • i wish this video was in better quality cuz its the best cover ive seen of this track with the best guitar tone for it

  • By far the best cover of this song I've seen.

  • Not much of a Vai fan are ya? jk...Cool playing.

  • really goods but you hit up the tempo like hard coreO_O well playe though

  • Wow, dude, you're awesome!, do you have the tab of this for me please ? I have a fake one with the wrong notes ... --"

  • is this a real jem?

  • why can't anyone play this in proper time...

    nice try

  • @Feverdream7777 can do this? instead of critisise ?

  • @Johncowk

    Yes, I'm able to play it... and he needs to hear that criticism. A huge portion guitarists have trouble playing in time and it makes them sound terrrible (like they are noodling, and it's very off putting). A guitarist is responsible to play with good rhythm, and if they can't, they need to make that a priority in creating music instead of learning a bunch of mis-timed notes.

  • @Feverdream7777 make a video then, mayte?

    and besides, guitarists arent made to copy each other, or else there wouldnt be balance. we wouldnt have genres like today.

    its not about getting notes right off the dot and memorizing just one virtuoso's sheet. thats where guitarists are wrong when they try with all their might to copy a song. its about YOUR way, not others.

    gotta get outta the box

  • VERY good, but i would think if u have an expensive guitar like that, u would at least have a decent quality camera.... lol. but VERY good playing nontheless. :)

  • @biggydoggsjj its a chibanez.. very affordable like lo-quality cameras!

  • This video is not speeded up.I guess sound changed from 0:33 might be recording problem. I know him. He really can plays this song, he plays it easily. He is one of the ELECTRIC GUITAR MONSTER of Thailand.

  • @KurdtPomm he turned on the distortion. he was using a foot pedal.

  • toos los weones tratando de imitar a steve pfffn esfuerzo aplicado en el estilo propio es la idea, o si no nuna vas a dejar de mirar pra arriba

    chupalo

  • You've gotta teach me this!!! lol xD

  • en q traste haces la ultima nota????

    

  • I'm thinking it would be more difficult to play this at half speed and speed it up than to actually play it that fast :P

  • HD?

    

  • hahah... and i thought i was good ! :P.... well played man

  • Brilliant!!!!

  • Great!

  • pienso que en la parte rapida lo gravaste en camara lenta y lo aceleraste en la pc

  • WHOLLY SHIT!!!!! THAT WAS TOTALLY PERFECT!!!!!! MAD PROPS DUDE!!!!!

  • @Helldorado72  video is sped up.... listen to the sound compression when the "hard part" comes up, and his hand is moving mechanically.

    He played it perfectly, just at half speed lol

  • @JgHaverty oh ... so thats why the sounds changes at that part right ? ...

  • @cleaven23 Yeah, the sound compression changes. If you listen, the background noise goes up two fold. It's played correctly, yes. but itts just sped up. Seems to be a common problem on youtube lately :(

    Im not a "hater"... I just call it how i see it :(

  • Despite the terrible quality of the camera, probably the best cover I've seen. Keep it up.

  • Is that an orange Jem?? Did you have it custom painted?

  • @typedeaf no its not a orange custom jem.its a desert yellow 777dy jem,whats happen is its been left in direct sunlight which screws up the desert yellow(neon) paint and turns a nasty orange colour.

  • Someone please help me figure out WTF Jem's have that handy carry handle carved out of them?

    Does it make it "easy" to throw in a trash can...since you're throwing your money away?

    Is that so you can carry it with you after your wife kicks your ass out for wasting $5K on a guitar?

    Seriously, has Vai EVER used that stupid handle?

  • @bucktheusa it's a fucking design feature. don't get all heated up cause of it.

  • @bucktheusa It's just a unique design feature, and yes steve does use it, since he was the one who came up with the idea....he wanted an easier way to hold the guitar during stage stunts, etc.

    Not everyone's cup of tea but I like it. As do loads of others. Stop being such a hater for no real reason.

  • There is a real reason. People get ripped off because they want to be a Vai Fanboy by buying a JEM which is just a glorified Ibanez RG with DiMarzio's and a stupid hole cut in it.

    Show me a video of SV using the handle...not the one where he's dressed like his mom with oversized glasses and hoop earings for the JEM contest.

    I mean him actually playing it with his hand in the handle. Yeah, thought so.

    BTW: I don't play drums

  • @bucktheusa WTF is with your attitude? He designed his own guitar in the same way EVH created the Frankenstrat....why do you take issue to how we spend OUR money??

    Fine. So he doesn't ACTUALLY play while holding the guitar with the handle, cos he has the strap, dumbass. As I previously stated, he uses it for STUNTS.....watch the Bad Horsie lightshow, and you'll see why he wants the handle.

    Fcking grow up, and keep the negativity to yourself.

  • @bucktheusa I'm pretty sure the handle isn't there to improve playability. It's for esthetics.

  • @bucktheusa Yes. He uses it to hold the guitar steady when he bashes A-holes like you in the face with it.

  • very good,,lets just say ive spent the past 15 mins tryin to find a good player do a cover of this song,,u r the only one i have found so far...brilliant

  • whats that guitar called??

  • you very good

  • Very very good

  • Face-melting. You are clearly a virtuoso. I had a master-class with Steve Vai last year. He was incredible. It was inspirational just to be in the same room with him. I learnt alot from his close-up demonstrations. He was asked to perform this piece, but declined as he wasn't fully 'warmed up'. He told me later that he simply couldn't remember it as it was over 20 years since he last played it.

    Thank you for playing it so well. You are an inspiration to us all.

    Full respect to you.

  • @NearlyMars what's virtuoso about making a cover?!? XDD

  • i had to scoop up my face from the floor with a cup after seeing this... RESPECT...

  • BRAVOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

  • GREAT JOB MEN!IT'S RARE TO SEE SOMEONE DOING THIS SOLO AT THE RIGHT WAY!!!!!!

  • Crossroads!

  • hahahahaha.. starting at 0:33 your guitar is just a LIPSING...I heard it ..If you have a sharp ear...playing with CD huh?.

  • To do the last note you push the string down onto the neck pickup so it acts like a fret, thats how vai does it anyway

  • nice fuckin guitar

  • lol just go watch ewan dobson flatpick the whole caprice at like 210 bpm on a steel string acoustic, if you dig this.

    I mean - get the total ego crush, getcha pull on that ):P

  • Yeah, I think this is one of the best Eugene trick bag covers on youtube. :o)

  • sick guitar

  • not bad...

  • AWESOME GUITAR AWESOME PLAYING but the camera is rlly bad and the gain is too much at 0:31-1:19

  • EXCELLENT! the best I've found so far. please post a better audio quality one if you can. Also, +1 for alternate picking the arpeggio section!

  • you roll niggar :)

  • Even you can't hit the last note... That was what killed Jack Butler in Crossroads.

  • the last note was actually a dub of like 3 or 4 guitars hitting seperate harmonies...

  • @ZeskoWhirligan I read that the last note is easier with an artificial harmonic on a telecaster somewhere in a forum (jemsite?). I think it has something to do with the neck pickup positioning and the lack of 24 frets... Maybe bumblefoot thimble technic would work also...

  • Even Rjanyong can't hit the last note. He's really reaching for those last 3, but he can't TOUCH the last note. That was the thing that killed Jack Butler in Crossroads — he couldn't touch the last note.

  • The original was speeded up.

  • @GreenMunday - That's true. They sped it up for the movie.

  • can u pls do a lesson? help out your fellow guitar players who are drooling over your insanse skill

  • maybe it's as fast, but it isn't faster

  • This isn't as fast as the original.

  • very nice, I didn't think it could be played any faster than original but I thought wrong. That was blazing dude!

  • Very nice, I just agree with '' superdanlewis ''..

    this is the best cover on youtube.. you are very good (:

    but i think that the original Trick bag is a little slowly.. but that's good..

  • best cover on youtube

  • most the other covers are complete shit that anal rapes your ears but this one is average i guess... check out my cover though its the best one iv seen lol

  • where can i find this tab?!

  • Brilliant.....I always thought this piece was impossible to play ....Thought they'd sped it up for the movie?

    Well done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • PERFECT.

  • Whoever is stupid enough to negatively comment that you need a metronome to keep time is the same person who would complain about a hang nail on Beyonce's foot. LOL!!!

  • good, but you should use a metronom u go out of time at some steps

  • GOD!!

  • round of applause everyone

  • Very good!!

  • I agree best one of found here so far!!! Nice work.

  • this is a very old and beat up ibanez jem 777dy.these were made between 1987-91 i have the vine version of this but mine has been well looked after and the yellow is still very vibrant.if this were my jem id be sending it to a luthier to get the neck cleaned and body resprayed,but maybe he likes it looking beat up,some people do.
