Acid Rain - Liquid Tension (Art video cover)

[Lu7zie]

chuck norris play this with his leg

[Lokitoooish]

Qué afinación usas ? :O

[MudTide1993]

Fake guys? You can clearly hear his guitar's tone, it stands out from the music a lot.

[Boscoloantonio]

Yeah!!!!!!

[DarkTahmi21]

Are you Petrucci?? Show your face!!!

[nikitofin]

@ArtRg como andas? te hago una pregunta: podré tocar este tema con mi guitarra afinada en drop b o en b standard ? saludos desde argentina

[LampusGilak]

It's absolutely not a fake! God Job man!

[mykittyaslut]

this guy: no john petrucci yoooou go kill yourself >:]

[wdxaw]

is there any tabs for this video bro?

[ThePhenomMan]

Is it just me, or did he plan the shine at 1:32 ?

[hovdens18]

FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!



[davemustaine999]

Even if he is faking, it's hard enough for the hands to move that quickly and precisely. And yes, I know... That's what she said.

[cobhcpick]

quedé loco con tu cover, perfecta al 100% ahora cuando valla a escuchar acid rain pongo tu cover… ^^

[Redkillahh]

1:32 his guitar has just entered another dimension.

[xxbeholderxx]

Haha....the middle transition in this SOng is CRAZY hard as fuck!!! jeez....haha nice shit man , never expected that this video would be good! mad props to u

[Heatlink1]

Just awesome

[PersianLord1995]

this is an ibanez for sure but which one?

[Greensmurf]

@PersianLord1995 Universe :)

[TheLolthazun]

This is just absolutely insane... I honestly think this sounds better than the studio version... Sorry Petrucci :'(

[1john1992]

I demand your talents.

[freminick123]

The people who say it's fake cannot play smoke on the water on guitar

[tabotabojayar]

that light reflection in 1:31 ...nice view...

[tabotabojayar]

100% of the haters can't really play..and it's hard to argue with people who knows nothing....

[hyperdrak]

Eargasm!!!!

[1220Bman]

I love that riff at 1:50!!! its awesome. great cover

[CLEE1395]

RESPECT.

[Chiverra]

pq bajas un tono? te sale perfecta!

[ArtRg]

@Chiverra , está bajada sólo medio tono. Cuando grabé este tema en 2006 usaba esta afinación con mi grupo y no me apetecía cambiar la afinación de la guitarra sólo para grabar un vídeo. Gracias por tu comentario.

[mdcbadevil]

best acid rain cover

[haiar43]

doesnt anyone know where i could get tabs for this song on a regular six string? all i can find are seven string one>:||

[ER052092]

@haiar43 unless you wanna down tune your 6 string but thats just gonna make it sound bad. i dont think youll find 6 string tabs for this song. its meant to be played on 7

[7ShadesOfBlue]

@ER052092 Some musicians can adapt, and if your 6 string sounds bad drop tuned, you need better pickups. Mine happens to sound beautiful regardless.

[ER052092]

@7ShadesOfBlue yea true. and baritone strings helps as well. thick mother effers.

[ultraslash5]

@haiar43 cause its played on a 7 string guitar...

[7ShadesOfBlue]

@ultraslash5 Ever hear of drop tuning? That's how you get around that. If you drop tune, you can make a 6 string sound like a 7 string. I happen to know this as a fact because I play a six string and play songs that use 7 string guitars. None as good as this, but still some none the less.

[ultraslash5]

@7ShadesOfBlue well yeah, but then what about the other string, you may be able to get the other ones sound lower, but he still has another string that he plays on

[7ShadesOfBlue]

@ultraslash5 You've missed the point of what I said. You can make it sound identical. i do it all the time. Literally, all the time. In my band, people hear a demo and think I use a 7 string, then they see me play and find out I have a six string Aria PE Studio (So you can look iy up, it's a six string)

[pandaswhatnow]

Totally fake.

[mrTerraplane]

Good.

[kittyranger]

i want to backing track



[strangemongo88]

23 people that suck at guitar and 1 amazing guitar player,

[TheThim51]

[lulmanden]

that iis pretty much the shit

[vbandres]

10/10 felicitaciones!!! que buen cover!!

[SemphasNecros]

love the guitar man 1:33 haha i love the beam of light.

[GuitarsAndSwords]

Duuuuuude!

that was tasty the chunk at 0:29 is just sooooooo badass!

How come you play in Bb?

[SeracGP]

very hard but not imposible dude!!! ^^!

[Zantiln]

I'm blind...

[tallicafan250169]

Amazing cover Art! Keep going because you are doing perfect at it!

[shredmetalmike]

Great selection in prog man! You're killer!

[Nibor1992]

Amazing man!

[rexasul]

Someone with a guitar like that isn't faking it!

[VivalaErzi]

[reympab29]

@VivalaErzi Ibanez Universe UV777pbk.

[DeadCorp1]

O_O amigo sos un crack!

[Nectapu]

holy shit!! this is the guitar that i want... can you give it to me? ahahaha great cover btw

[capv1pintoval]

Dude! Nice guitar!

[semdevn]

fucking great music theory

[shah2101]

Im a fan of john petrucci..This cover is amazing,where did u learn to play like this?

[SeracGP]

is the only cover I see here on youtube

 AMAZING! O.O!

[DeathInVegas967]

Wow O_O

[RelaxationII]

What distortion did you use?

[mrzelda8]

omg these tabs are not how he plays this and its so annoying i need a video lesson!!!! someone do a lesson lol :D

[zacdarider]

relax guys... he maybe practices guitar for 15 years...and maybe plays 20 hours a week... personnaly, i play 30 hours a week (now, cause before, it was like 20) when I have school and that for the 2 past years and i can play this song ! not as perfect as Art or John, but i play it ! I play some Malmsteen and prog metal too..

So lets talk bout you Art, thousands of thumbs up, youre a guitar model to follow cause you fking rock !! Keep on the best work ever !! =)

[carpantra]

Realmente Impresionante

[gnznrss]

why every time u find someone who can play the songs perfect, u say its fake?

is JP the only one who can play acid rain perfect? NO!

this guy is the sh*t!

[musickmann94]

WOW ! O.o!!

Excellent job man! 5/5 congratulations!!

Of course this is not fake, this guy is playing guitar like a pro!!!

[biglu30]

i actually like the lower key alot better. great job man

[hunter111mmm]

why would it be fake ... thats like a 2500+ guitar,

[Slashe50]

What I'd do for an Ibanez Universe...

[Xypher911]

This is not fake, I can hear the difference clearly between his guitar sound and Petrucci's. Their guitar sound is a bit different.

[zacdarider]

which string tuning do you use?

[Slashe50]

It's a seven string guitar, so I would assume he's at standard BEADGBE.

[zacdarider]

no, actually, i own a seven string guitar and i think by ear that he's tuned a half step down ( A#D#G#C#F#A#D# )

[Slashe50]

My bad, that's correct.

[Austizzle000]

It's so sad how jealous people deny real talent.

[pekisi]

@Austizzle000 that is not talent

that is perseverance....

Is so sad when people see other's progres and not the sacrifice they do for that progres...

Im not attacking you but it's how i think from my point of view

[Austizzle000]

Uhh, yeah I'm pretty sure all he did was practice like everday for a few years...No sacrifice hahahaha. You sound like he killed somebody for powers on the guitar.

[pekisi]

maybe he turned some ppl down or had to leave things behind to practise u donnow... :P

[AsatorTOX]

you can tell its not a fake because he made a couple mistakes.

[gargametal]

man, congratz!

[RLuteran]

fake lmao! I can assure you that's not fake, I used to be able to play it. nice playing man!

[paintdude13]

Fake.

[AsatorTOX]

prove it

[Divljina89]

Still not 100% :-)

[yuri9122]

goood job man

[davydyyz]

wooa, the shining of your guitar

[JDoran24]

Um... Well if he isn't playing it, he really is extremely amazing at faking! I mean... His hands are matching the song exactly so I mean either he's good at faking it or he's just freakin good at guitar man! Why does everyone have to assume people are faking guitar covers of songs? Just cuz you can't do it doesn't mean this guy or anyone else for that matter can't do it! Respect the skills I say! Good cover Art! Just ignore people like this and keep doin what you're doin man! ^_-

[farrieswong]

no,he is not faking,you can hear the sound on 0.15-0.25,he play it wrong,so that proof he is not faking.

[canman87]

Yeah, you can hear his guitar on the whole video. Maybe some people haven't had time to develop their ear to hear it, but if you want a clear indication that he is actually playing, listen to how he holds that note a second or two longer right before the 'jungle beat' on the drums begins.

Good work again, man.

[AgainstAllOdds914]

awesome speed dude

[TheHuggles09]

in that case, he's extraordinarily good at faking....

[gibbs75]

5 stars my friend!!! i play chapman stick we can make a tribute band ;)

[BigzXeronA]

A.M.A.Z.I.N.G tab plz :)

[noobazo]

dude you´re insane xD

[somos999]

That sucked donkey dick, balls, and mouth.

JK it was awesome! gj man!

[aznjelly]

amazing, I think I might look into buying the UV777

[xMetalUpYourA55x]

the intro riff is played with palm mute???

Nice cover by the way.

[MaxBGuitar]

Great playing! Very impressive!!

[jpetrucci05]

Come si dice anima sola en ingles? I love your playing. Buen trabajo.

[Danielnoctis]

single soul , single = sola soul= anima .(literally translation, not used)

lonely soul, or unique soul it's what you're probably after, though these are rarely used in english . You know, every language has it's own phrases that don't necessarily translate well in a foreign one.

[musicman1232]

correct me if im wrong but isnt this song tuned like A something? how can you tune that low? i heard having heavy gage strings help. is that true? id like to be able to get that low but idk how string wise.

[bonceyrogs]

No dude, It's just on a 7 string guitar, in standard tuning.

[koen37]

BEADGBE

7 string standard tuning

[repene1234]

I think he is right...It's in A#, Im trying to learn it with my 7 string in standard tuning and I can't get to the lower notes.

[HDx89]

is art really your name? if it is it suits you.

[BeverlyHillsUp]

Very clean! Gotta love that little bend/ vibrato at the end of some of the riffs during the solo.

[ub3r1337h4x0r]

Acid Raaaain, some stay dry but other feel the pain...

[gurumaster89]

HAHA XD nice

[deathmetaliscool]

ahahahahah

[renzokuken45]

LOLOL!!!

[Redandtasty]

notable weon!

[akto666]

great playing

[Frizzly06]

amazing....

It almost looks like extreme guitar hero

[cowedbywisdom]

Sweet guitar man. Nice tone.

[GuitarAssKicker]

Fantastic cover!

But why have you tuned down the song?

[Fasims86]

the solos part are just amazing, clear and almost perfect, i can't even imagine me doin' something like that... You're pretty good man, keep up like that!!

[peppsss1]

good tone good timing and great guitar/strings.

[xXNitramGtaXx]

una pregunta, como le bajaste el tono a la cancion, es decir el pitch?

[unholystar666]

Unbelievable!!

great job !!

[yamitanomura]

how can you learn all that notes??

It's amazing!

[Carlos7492]

this guy is the best guitarrist in youtube without any doubt

[DeathBringer769]

Your tone is so close to Petrucci's it's crazy.

[OrzerO]

Si, en realidad suena muy rompebolas bajando de tono la guitarra.

Saludos!

[MajereRaist]

It's an easy song. Really.

[pkhernandez89]

Hell YEAH!

[Sickindian5]

how did you came up to this sound?

[Reymo0on]

con todo respeto... usted es un puto

xD

deveria ser maestro de guitarra *-*

es genial tocando

[runescapewena]

nice!!!!!

[Shiftito]

10 stars

[scarter180]

WOW! I have seen a lot of videos where guitar players do half-assed demos of easy songs and people say "OMG YER AWSUM!!1!" and I'm surprised that nobody here left a comment telling you that you are truly amazing! This is a very tough song! Well done!

[Sickindian5]

Exactly even Petrucci himself said that after this song your fingers are dead :)

[00Dakka]

after playing this song, YOU are dead. not petrucci

[Sickindian5]

Thats why i dont event attempt to play it ive got family to feed hahaha :D

[strikingblack2]

shitt son you good lol

[spearshake]

If there was a flaw, it was virtually undetectable....

0_0

[elsepulcro]

le bajaste medio tono.... asi la sacaste orales good....

[LYE350DX]

GENIALL TU TECNICA SALUDOSSSS

[anirban2good]

nice job.. dude...ur good...

[drumervara]

nice guitar but i hear music louder than you

[DbCSteelLegion]

drumervara you can hear him, he is half a step down compared to what it is normally played at, where as backing is normal, giving a really nice contrast, like in the intro which was just awesome.

[xispaxjackass]

(h5)

[chukidie]

la rompes locooooooooo!!!!!

muy buena tu guitarra

y la tocaste igualito, pero uun semitono mas abajo creo, igual sonó muy bien

[SSoul7]

excelente.-

[molecular360]

why are you playing a half step down?

[ArtRg]

because I used that tuning in my band in 2006

[JuniorGw]

wow ur are fucking crazy dude, nice job

[rodrigozamo]

en esta tonalidad mas baja se oye muy del putas... q gran cover... se puede decir q petrucci tiene competencia...

[speedy342316]

1:32 is badass how the solo starts, then you get blinded by the reflection of the light from ur guitar. you can't even plan somethin like that lol

[irosrr]

Perfect! now that you have mastered this song, maybe you're wondering...what now??? lol I totally rec that you try to play some Planet X songs!

[D4athPanda]

Mind = blown. I'm just gonna put my guitar down...

[bilalkopinski666]

haha!! XD!!

[Shiftito]

hehe

[thps89]

beautiful!!

[captxxchaos]

killer track, nailed the solo, and some brass knuckle tone you got there.... and i dont think im alone when envying that guitar!!!! nice 10001 stars!

[Goku313]

Inspiring much?

[Anakha89]

Ibanez Universe UV777pbk

[sRgBucK]

WHAT THE FUCK! THAT WAS FUCKING UNREAL MAN! EVERY NOTE PERFECT! if you ever stop playing guitar it'll be the end of the world cause you just aced a ridiculous song!

[guitargod1448]

your fuckn incredible man!

keep it up

you should get a band going and make it big :D

[m00nkinftw]

You must have been blessed by John Petrucci's amazing godlike powers

[havocoh89]

great song amazing playing

[DooodleDoood]

Is that a 7-string guitar?

[siOu666]

woha, that tone is really sick! very nice cover, love that song :>

[taketheplunge54]

that is one sweet guitar.. and a really great tone

[J214]

thats amazing

[guichosalan]

hey man eres el guitarrista de anima sola?? excelente aka suena mucho tu banda, y sobre el cover pues genial!!! en serio felicidades!! ahi tamos , chido!!

[DragonFlopp]

When you play that opening riff, it sounds a bit heavier than it should. But whatev. Amazing job nonetheless.

[BassThrasher]

Probably because it's tuned a half step down.

[DragonFlopp]

Is it played half a step down? I thought it was just standard tuning with a 7 string.

[BassThrasher]

The original song is in standard 7 string tuning, but he plays it half a step down, which is why it sounds heavier to you.

[DragonFlopp]

Ah, adding his own twist is he? Well it works.  Sounds good. Yeah I figured he had it tuned down or something because it definitely sounds heavier than the album version.

[element1385]

more like making it easier

the songs hell difficult

one of my buddys plays it amazing; but even he admits its extreme

universal mind and some of ther other stuff is pretty intense

impressive job nonetheless

[AnthonyParalikas]

How does tuning it a half step down make it easier at all? For all you know, he could be playing on '12s.
