Fun guitar whammy bar harmonic tricks ala Dimebag Darrell Van Halen

[ziggeetar]

Awesomesauce!!!

[Helpmeknowthings]

Here's a sad sight; go to the bottom of the page, click the "view all comments" link. Then hit ctrl & f. Now observe all the times the word "black" appears on the page. I don't know about you assholes, BUT FOR ME MUSIC IS ABOUT THE SOUND, NOT THE FUCKING RACE OF THE MUSICIAN!!

[alfonsovai]

I agree, but jimi is the most important, influential, developer of the instrument, period. There wouldnt be any Satriani, Vai, jonhson, ynwgie, van Halen witout him, at least not the same. By the way, a little humility wont hurt you!! 8 years is NOTHING when playing guitar, i saw your videos and i must say, you really cant talk "from experience", you know what a metronome is?

[sexyibanez14]

i love you!

[RealRiseAndShine]

i love your guitar

[dazzerman12]

[PuppetOfTheMaster]

[PuppetOfTheMaster]

Finally found a use for my whammy. thanks

[armandosoldado]

hey guys plzzzzzzzzz help me my ibanez gsa6ju whammy bar only can be pushed down towards the guitar body and i cant screw it like this man doing when i try to screw it it stucks suddenly and doesnt make any difference in pitch

[FourthHorseman666]

@armandosoldado Without a Floyd Rose or Kahler tremolo, you can't bend notes up. If you want to, you could buy a new guitar with one already installed, or you could spend the money to have one installed in your current guitar. It all has to do with how the whammy bar works, Wikipedia has a good diagram of how a Floyd Rose works.

[kokos742]

Yeah ... BLS ! Bleed black !

[m333tt]

i use to want that K7 guitar sooooo bad! to bad im a lefty...i hate spending an extra 100 bucks on a lefty for the same guitar rightys get. all the guitar shops around here, have one maybe two leftys..but of course they are just they generic black and white electric stratocaster rip offs.

..

[izquiz]

haha he said g string =P

[dpapaioannow]

*ooohh my god...a black dude with a guitar?whats the world coming to?*...LOL GET THE FUCK OUT stupid retarded downsyndromed racist jackasses with an extra chromosome

[arabianmetalhead99]

@dpapaioannow Hey you know what is super funny about this comment? Blacks created the gutiar you fool.

[dpapaioannow]

@arabianmetalhead99 hey you know whats super funny about your comment...i was reffering to racist jackasses who hate back people or any other without their skin compexion...and last but not least,read a fucking history book,vause ancient greeks created the guitar,and ancient greeks werent black...YOU FAIL EPICLY

[arabianmetalhead99]

@dpapaioannow I have a book about the history of the guitar it was not greeks sorry to tell you. It was created by the slaves in the south.

[dpapaioannow]

@arabianmetalhead99 uuuhhhhhmmmm...nope ROFL once again EPIC FAIL the word guitar derieves from the ancient greek word ΚΙΘΑΡΑ kithara..get it?ANCIENT GREEKS invented the guitar...i mean *slaves in the south* ROFL....whats that book called?afrocentrism 101?ROFL...epic fail

[arabianmetalhead99]

@dpapaioannow No its the history of the guitar, ancient Greeks dude you need to go educate yourself. It was created by a black man because he didn't have anything to do. You probably can't buy it since you live in greek, i wouldn't look use wikipedia.

[dpapaioannow]

@arabianmetalhead99 ok..please enlighten us then with your awesoooooome "ejucation"..what was this black dude called and when did he invent the guitar?created means invent right?the thing being created didnt even exist as an idea or an actual object until someone came up with it right?...right LOL...please go on...we're all ears

[arabianmetalhead99]

@dpapaioannow Robert F. Flemmings Jr. He invented the electric guitar.

[dpapaioannow]

@arabianmetalhead99 oooooooooooohhhhhhh oooohhhhhhhhhhhhhh...the ELECTRIC GUITAAAAAAAAARRRRR....oooooooo­hhhhh ok now we're talking,next time could you be more specific on what EXACTLY it is you're referring to since the subject being discussed has existed in one form or another or several of them for several THOUSAND years?...so that people wont mistake you for a blatend retard with an extra chromosome?...thaaaaaaaank youuuuuuuuu ;)

[arabianmetalhead99]

@dpapaioannow mhm. 

[dpapaioannow]

@arabianmetalhead99 uuuuuuuuhhhhhhh...mhm?that's the fucking title book?...mhm?i just google mhm and it will show up?can you provided me with a link?

[dpapaioannow]

@arabianmetalhead99 who is the publisher and author?

[arabianmetalhead99]

@dpapaioannow Book is called the definitive guitar hand book, i am not sure if it says anything about Robert F. Flemmings Jr, its packed up in a box. Just google a book on the history of the electric guitar. He invented it in 1886. 

[dpapaioannow]

@arabianmetalhead99 you know whsat i think arabianmetalhead99?... i think that if people keep on passing lollipops on the street you'll do fine *taps your shoulder* ;)

[arabianmetalhead99]

@dpapaioannow Hih dude? The author is Rusty (ed) Cutchin, no i bought it at a book store, they have quite a few.

[dpapaioannow]

@arabianmetalhead99 uuuuhhhhhh see?i just googled his name and this book is the first result that came up on amazon...that means i can order it to be mailed right at my home in poor ol greece...that wasnt so hard was it arabianmetalhead99?

[arabianmetalhead99]

@dpapaioannow Yeah that one if i am not mistaken talks about the history of the guitar, it also has the history of the music from jazz to blues to punk to metal. Also i recommend the history of the guitar.

[dpapaioannow]

@arabianmetalhead99 sure i may not be able to "buy"it because it may not exist here in greece(and its not called live in greek...greek or hellenic is he languange and the country is called greece or HELLAS to be more correct and thanks for the channel view by the way,you dont say i live in chinese or russian do you?learn how to fucking spell)...but i can still order it from the net can i?...soooo...what's that book called?

[arabianmetalhead99]

@dpapaioannow I can't even find it on the website, do you have a barns and noble at in Greece? Or a boarders?

[dpapaioannow]

@arabianmetalhead99 but since you said you have read it...that means you have it right?and you bought it from an online bookstore?no?so is it too much of a hustle for you to mention the publisher and author?whats the matter arabianmetalhead99?...are you starting having blackspots or aneurysms? ;)

[dpapaioannow]

@arabianmetalhead99 i think its time for you now to have a seat and simply STFU because you are so owned n burned ROFL

[metalradio9]

his tone is much better on here then on his PRS

[bozzi90]

I wish to see many many more black people in metal bands, IMO there are many black people that are talented (they kinda have music in their blood...) but they don't go into the rock genre for some reason.

[arabianmetalhead99]

@bozzi90 Dude go look at all the thrash bands from the 80s a lot of diversity, slayer, anthrax, hirax katon de pena is black, testament, etc. If people took the time to look up the bands they would see, slayer tom is natvie american indian, dave is a cuba mexican, hirax katon is black, testament chuck billy is pomo indian and eric peterson is asian, Anthrax, Joey is native american indian and Scott Ian is jewish.

[multiguitar23]

the funniest face of dis video5:44

[tricky12321]

Ibanez, good choice ;)

[6kristov9]

He's a Gangster Rocker. LMAO

[Mertius1]

man that was my guitar at one point , should of locked my door

[JethroMcormick]

leave it to a handful of ignorant fucking pricks to make racist comments on a guitar video with a black guy

[pornograwesome]

in the beginning he look so tough, but he talks like a white dude

[Wolverine30303]

NEXT LEVEL GUITARS DOT CUUUM!!!

[metallica78rock]

black guy!

[saulhudson420]

@metallica78rock Yeah I know, how weird, right? Cause Robert Johnson wasn't black or anything, you know? Or Jimi Hendrix. Or BB King. I mean, since when do black people play guitar?!

[MessiahToNoFaithBand]

@saulhudson420 He does know that the first Metallica guitarist was black, right?

[saulhudson420]

@MessiahToNoFaithBand lol

[Babyface6200]

@MessiahToNoFaithBand I didn't know Dave Mustaine was black lol

[tenneseestud]

@saulhudson420 they usually play bass right? lol jk he rocks

[saulhudson420]

@tenneseestud hhaha

[lund3000]

@saulhudson420 Correction; Jimi Hendrix is actually considered the greatest guitarist in musical history.

[saulhudson420]

@lund3000 hahaha. Jimi hendrix wa s a great musician. Greatest guitarist? Even if their was a 'greates', Jimi wouldn't come close. Only person that's going to tell you that Hendrix was the best guitarist is someone who has never played guitar.

[alfonsovai]

@saulhudson420 Tell that to joe satriani, who actually thinks hendrix is the best guitarist ever

[saulhudson420]

@alfonsovai I couldn't care less what Joe's opinion is. I've been playing guitar for over 8 years, I know from experience. Joe Satriani may be a great guitar player, but that's still just his opinion. Just because he says something, doesn't mean it's true. Anyone who claims that anyone is the 'best guitarist ever' is an idiot. Music is about expressing emotion. Just because Jimi had more soul than Joe, doesn't mean he was a better 'guitarist'. He was a better 'musician'.

[afterthefox7]

@saulhudson420 About the same time that white people started dancing.

[saulhudson420]

@afterthefox7 White people can dance. You tellin me Michael Jackson couldn't dance?

[revan107]

anyone know what song he's playing in the beginning here?

[SMASHHITQ8]

yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­eh ImI

[666Gear]

i may sound like rasist, but this guy looks like "madafaka bitch yeah" guy, but he´s damn good... keep playing man, you are cool, i like your style and i mean it

[morganherba7]

hate all the raceist shit on this page and to the comment of "whats a nigger doing playing guitar?" dumb ass slash is black jimi hendrix is black bb king is black eddie hazel is black and legit they are all really good guitarists

[PieceofMindmusic]

@morganherba7 not to mention chuck berry and all the other blues muscians over the ages, so much fucking ignorance here it makes me sick.

[drtyfknmouth]

The "elephant" is 3 harmonics instead of 2.

[33eastern]

why is a black guy playing guitar

[thebig00JEW]

@33eastern Eh hes a nigger, probably stole the guitar then forced a teacher to teach him some licks at gun point.

[sirtom68]

@33eastern Damn,...he is black!!! Hide ya pearl white guitars, he goina play em and ruin em for all white boys. lmfao@ such a lame comment. I see no such talent or effort to teach on your page or in your videos.Your voice is mute.

[33eastern]

@sirtom68 who said i was trying to teach people how to play

[kunkushun1]

head k7 ibanez 7 stringer nice geetar broski.

[S1lence696]

Damn huge mouth, bet he sucks his own cock too MUCH!

[thebig00JEW]

@S1lence696 Hell yeah brother FUCK NIGGERS!!!

[S1lence696]

@thebig00JEW HELL YEAAAH \m/!!

[PieceofMindmusic]

why did this become a fucking racial discussion??

watch the fucking video! who gives a fuck what race the guy is, it doesnt fucking matter and it certainly has nothing to do with anything he's trying to teach your dumb asses.

[thebig00JEW]

@PieceofMindmusic Hes a nigger dude. Race is always a gonna be an issue. SO FUCK YOU FAG GTFO my youtube bitch,

[Miittle]

@thebig00JEW Race is always gonna be an issue for dumbasses like you, yeah.

[Mikedeslayer02]

@PieceofMindmusic Very well meant, but not very diplomatic.

[PieceofMindmusic]

@Mikedeslayer02 - i was just tired of so much ignorance being tossed around on these videos. Racism is nothing to be diplomatic about for me, it just needs to be phased out.

[mladen639]

@PieceofMindmusic "who gives a fuck what race the guy is" His race is, like we all are: Human. :)

[PieceofMindmusic]

@mladen639 - right :)

[PieceofMindmusic]

@102bassmasta yes you can get a whammy on a bass guitar, it's not common because it does throw you out of tune i you dont know how to use it right and takes some gettting used to.

[Synyst3rg4t3]

Your black, and you play guitar...

Holy shit... Thats awesome

[AleXZanderkeen31]

haha i didint know black ppl could play guitar

[TheGamerboy860]

@AleXZanderkeen31 >:( Racist, I play guitar too...

[MrSyn7fold]

@AleXZanderkeen31

Well besides the obvious majority of Blues guitarist and Jimi Hendrix: Dallas & Doc Coyle (God Forbid), Prince, Slash, Lenny Kravitz, Bo Diddley, Chuck Berry, Ernie Isley...just to name a few. Please learn your History before you post ignorance because if it wasn't for most of these "black ppl" rock and metal wouldn't be what it is today

[Pomel23]

@MrSyn7fold Slash??? He isn't black...

[MrSyn7fold]

@Pomel23

Yep he's mixed actually...it's hard to tell from far away but the closer you get you can see the hint of African American

[Pomel23]

@MrSyn7fold U could say he's mixed, but he definitely is not black.

[SuperScguy]

@MrSyn7fold um from far away??? just a hint???? i think he a little more than that.

[MrSyn7fold]

@SuperScguy

ehh His father is British and his mother is African American, he was raised in England so he's not really mixed with every random culture like most Americans and myself included

[GironJaden]

this is my favorite teacher on next level guitar

[kunimaro15689]

get that bar spin it in there an push it down! lol

[GaljoTOTO]

Hahh.... Black guy with a guitar :)))

[bschierloh]

[TheJiMiHeNdRiX333]

[cobranin]

[razorlips2000]

tthis black guy is so cool

[rubiconuk1981]

Good video. I like this teacher.

[kellyisvlogging]

i really dislike all the players on this channel.

[Guywh0playzgu1tar]

@kellyisvlogging is it cuz hes black?? =P

[365daysgone]

this guy lacks rhythm...

[Natesmitguitar]

@365daysgone Are you sure? The phrases he's playing are circular, i.e. the time signature definitely is not in 4/4.

[frogmaster421]

is that a 6 string bass guitar lol

[bladibla06070]

@frogmaster421 its 7 string bass guitar :o :P

[Slappinstyle]

wow black people are supposed to play bass :/ nah just kidding

[cacarral]

Is that Will.I.am?

[therealrene]

BLS good choice my friend

[giantbabywolf]

the first black guy with no rhythm? dude you suck! your guitar playing has no soul or groove or feel. PLEASE STOP PUTTING VIDEOS ON YOUTUBE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Loathera]

@giantbabywolf it's in time.... and soul is relevent: he obviously likes what he's doing. It's not a song it's a lesson. You don't hear soul in playing a scale.

[c00ljames]

@4:22 just gently use the bar....

[dansterwerecool]

3:39 that is insane

[guitarrhythymfool]

How the fuck did he get a K7? I've been looking for one of those forever!

[k5lta]

thats what im sayin,where are the K7s at lol

[Guitarbeast6666]

i love Ibanez and a 7 string makes it all better!

[spazmicjosh]

It sounds like he is using the randall rg 100

[CrashTestSkater]

thumbs up for g string.

[skateboarding118]

[TheBlackOctane]

Phil X from Fretted Americana is better

[andrewmassacre1]

I like this guy. He's actually pretty cool.

[falseangelwing]

Man, 2 fist McGee is such a champ

[Dominator046]

I am really glad they put this tutorial up.

And is it just me, or can the attacks on the strings be heard fairly loudly? Because I have good ears, but I mean, I can hear all the attacks on the strings.

[Maztrim]

@Dominator046 At one point in the video you can see the mic on the left of the screen. That's why you can hear the pick against the strings.

[Dominator046]

@Maztrim Ah, alright. I didn't see it apparently. Thanks for clarifying = ).

I was thinking that was an amazing guitar, but I didn't know why I was hearing all the scratching XDD.

[butterknucklez]

black label society!

[nosebleedbc]

two fist magee! ur the man! great lessons!

[gmlamr]

rockongoodpeople is a very good Chanel but since you started doing what you are doing i think its not projected for me i cant fined any inspiration at your lessons but i keep on watching this videos maybe one day you will do something else from that intro that i hate

[antifaith82]

holy shit this guy sounds whiter than I do...

[vvblues]

Willbilly "Two Fist" McGee is a golden God. I want to be like him when I grow up.

[theEddievanhalen]

NICE!TY!

[ShitMyAssFucker]

[DasKarsten]

you have a sandy ego?

[jadlad]

cool

[lilfisticuffs]

I did the beard, its very metal...

and the Black Label Society shirt is pretty cool too.

[metallover54]

what is an overdriven amp and whats the difference betwn it and a normal amp? can i do like these harmonics and tremelo techniques on a normal amp?

[lilfisticuffs]

@metallover54

over drive is when an amp is turned up in loudness to the point where the sound begins to clip or get distorted.

You can do These harmonics on a clean tone if thats what you mean but they wont have as heavy as a sound and it may be a little hard to bring them out.

you can

[rhalf77]

whats up with the rating with this new youtube where do i see how many stars a video has

[ryanmccz]

@rhalf77 your only able to see how many they got when you giv a thumbs up or thumbs down. Its a really crappy idea bcus some people including me click the thumbs just to see how many stars the video has been given which will give it a really in accurate rating. New Setup? BAD IDEA!!

[bugginbee]

Can you post what distortion pedal you used in this video?

[lalaosd]

WE WANT THE OLD YOUTUBE!

[DrIntrebec]

@lalaosd AMEN

[dieandgoaway]
