Hi, this a beautiful take of a beautiful song...i have the same question than the previous one...what pickups? the di marzios HS3 or others more powerful ?

[00000009529]

what pickups are using?

[arameh]

awesome, good tone brother

[verstimmung]

покажите мне этих семерых человек...............

[chairtablestable]

have you always been this good?

[TheDaymos777]

как получить такой звук? у меня джексон а не страт правда. но там есть 2 сингла

[dimitheodoro]

one thing i find Yngwie is amazing,is his sense of vibrato.I feel in your video the same sense!!my congrats...Let me ask you something for this..When you pull your thumb back for vibrato,you focus your motion in the finger or in the wrist???

keep the excellent work \m/

[blackmetalrockdeath]

:O <<<< my face looks like this. AWESOME BRO

[XtremBizZzar]

This makes me cry, wonderfull, awesome playing

[EnDoRa78]

yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh 

[StanleyKu]

Are you Yngwie's long lost brother? That was damn near perfect!!

[korneyivanovic]

legendary video for me

[Airmanik]

The sound is fucking amazing!! Can you share you setup?

[johnhighmountain]

probably one of the very few if not the only, great impression of yngwie! very nicely done man! most cant catch the "emotion' in yngwies pieces.. but you got it.. nice vibrato...

[nmdiaspt]

That's a solid 10 man. You sure did you homework!

[urssglory]

u are a genius.... vote 9/10

[urssglory]

malmsteen's clone

[urssglory]

great work man!!!!

[ravenrage07]

best cover ever.... i perfer this to the yngwie original. you shuld be a millionare by now....

[marcg1z28]

Question For you ..awesome Playing By the way.. How did you make your Backing Track...Did you actually Take the Song And Cut out the Guitarpart...At the Very end you stopped playing and you could Hear the Acoustic clean piece at the end ? Please advise

[13shahin]

[interistapuro91]

[brylner]

Jisses vad snyggt lirat. Högsta klass på det gitarrspelet. Jag lyfter på hatten.

[alanwatersguitar]

anybody who has listend to song and wonderd how yngwie played this song with such feeling and vibrato they have just witnessed it in ONE take, thanks marcus you are without doubt a true inspiration to me and guitar players around the world, your vibrato and feeling in every song is amzing thanks againn!!!!!

[D081]

well done.

[gutiole]

Amazing playing and feeling...Check out my videos man and give me some tips...Keep up the good work...im really impressed ;-)

[shybooz]

Malmsteen would be porud of you!!

[DannyBoy777]

I think this genuinely might be better than Yngwie's version... shocking to find myself (a huge YJM fanatic) saying something like that... but at the very least it seriously rivals it for sheer power and beauty. Your playing is immaculate also.

[zukotrial]

Powerpull..i Love it lol

[jfutach]

Awesome stuff. Almost better than the original!

[drinight]

Perfect man ! Wich tuning is?

[MarioMoreBlack]

Really great work man, love the vibrato!!

[6StringsShaped]

I like your version more than the original.

[odinsting]

[DarkBlackReaper]

Breathtalking my friend

[allanfelipebr]

Very good, where´d you get the backing track from? I just find one version with an annoying compression.

[lavendell]

Thank you! I made the backing track myself :)

[adek262]

@allanfelipebr O,man.

absolutely amazing !!!



[danielweeks414]

very nice mate, good technique. please check my videos

[payamr213]

This is a really wonderful cover. Very clean and similar to the original. Wish you had played the 20 seconds of cleans at the end of the song too...

[yngwieshred11]

[sofocaxion]

SONIDO INCREIBLE!

BRAVO!

[smith7ism]

Nice job. Hope to post myself playing Amberdawn soon!

[xntrickk]

i'm a huge fan of YJM and this is just killer, kudos to you...

[outwit123]

awesome Marcus. You put so much feeling into it love it! sounds better than Malmsteen now a days ;)

[LunarEclipse70]

What you've done here is incredible. Your technique, feel, and tone is an honor to Yngwie's Amberdawn. I have a pod pro xt. I would greatly appreciate if you would share the tone with me. 

[jtryde]

Very nicely done! You make it look rather easy. That would be awesome were that the case. It's a pretty difficult peice to play with correct emphasis. Thanks!

[superrmariow]

One of the best songs ever in music history :P

Great cover:)

[jtryde]

@superrmariow - agreed, one of the best things ever to come off the fretboard of a stratocaster. It's just a beautiful peice of music.

[yngwie5757]

Is that the ultimate cover of this song ?

so beautiful,because so near from the original and so far all at once

a nice surprise to find you there today !

[EvilEyester]

The best!

[martyfridman]

[IamGuitars]

[Alexiaden93]

10 000 views, master Lavendell. Congratulations =D

[behemoth666123]

OMFG! You're better than Yngwie! Still it's fair that Yngwie gets more attention, because he wrote it :D

Anyway, you're amazing.

[memoglz]

one of the best yngwie´s cover i´ve ever heard... flawless playing, please tell me that you are a professional guitar player, cuz if u tell me its just a hobby i will blow my head off!!!..... amazing tone marcus!!!!

excellent video.. congratulations!!!

[SismaGroup]

Fantastico!!!!

[freakmetalgirl80]

Insane cover dude!!! It's perfect!

Loved it! :D

[metalgod1221]

I just sent you an email requesting your POD tone.

[vichenec]

Hey Marcus, where did you get the backing track? 10x!

[gitarcla]

Your fingering and Picking and Tone are very beautiful and Artistic!!!!

Great!!!!!

[gibson115]

Very good sound , you perfect play this music !!! ;-)

[Jollepolle93]

Incredible, just amazing, I honestly think that was better then the original and you are in my opinion an guitarist that has an amazing feel and tone. Keep up the good work :)

[richieh1980]

I have to say. This is actually better than the Yngwie version. This is the 1 on my mp3. It sounds so much Better. Very nice playing fella

[Venomenn]

a m a z i n g . . . . . . !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[jair333]

Kickass Cover man!!!

[jamlsn]

You stumble across talent like this rarely. Different style but would say the talent is that of Randy Rhoads...although that stuff is too easy for Marcus to play. Marcus - this would be cake for you too, but ever get into Andy Timmons? I'd love to see you cover "Groover or Die".

[NisseEricsson]

Absolutely great. Riktigt bra jobbat.

[LoloGirl2484]

Perfect!!! I love the way you play this amazing piece!!! Also love your vibrato and your tap harmonics!!!!! Amazing!!!

[ShimeBB]

[jeffjwb]

I'll say it again. No one can play like Marcus!

[bonjyrivers]

[armandddd]

yes great job dude keep on :D

[caniman]

In my opinion Lavendell is the best performing Yngwie´s songs without any doubt in youtube (not only the technique wich is amazing, also the vibrato, passion and intention of Yngwie´s phrasing is there and that´s not easy to achieve) and also a fantastic guitarrist by himself.

Dude. Where are those fantastic Yngwie Medleys vids? I miss them.

[jeffredmenace]

@caniman I have a copy of Medley #2

[XMitsuhideX]

@jeffredmenace Is there any where I can download it? Like a MEGAUPLOAD link or something similar? I saw that video YEARS ago and I miss it. :P

[jeffredmenace]

@XMitsuhideX Did I ever reply to you?

[XMitsuhideX]

@jeffredmenace I don't think so... Haha I had to search for your comment just now. If you still have it I would love to grab a copy. :)

[urdal2007]

Great melodic stuff!!! 5 Stars for it!!

Nice greets

urdal

[gallicounours]

Well done but what amp do you use ?

[Alexander1991]

I just started learning this piece after watching this, it's really awesome!

Lavendell does it 100% correct, i gotta admit his sound is more (epic?) than yngwie's on the cd. It's one of those songs where it ain't so much the skill, but the talent that makes it sound awesome. :)

[Shadefecator]

4:04 - 4:09 is literally impossible to play as Yngwie intended it. Thats why Lavendells playing it slower than Yngwie. Dont get me wrong; he is doing this fucking great, but even Yngwie himself cant play it properly! Its sloppy and "dirty". Watch other youtubers trying this tune out. That specific part is either so shitty you can smell it through your screen, or it isnt there at all! If I love it? So damn, fucking much! Its not hard to "extrapolate" how its supposed to sound, and its divine!

[Alexander1991]

It's not the gear that sound good, it's the guy playing it.

[CategoryV]

Absolutely gorgeous!

[autohack16]

that's incredible..really left me speechless...still gotta ask, dude i'll even beg :D teach it on GMC?

[15thsquadron01]

GREAT!

[omrak2000]

PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!

BRAVO.

[FENDER123222]

awesome!! 5* what fender is that ?

[brunomalmsteen]

Yngwie Vibrato = 100%

Yngwie Tone = 100%

Dude, you rock.

What's your gear?

[jeffjwb]

Marcus - this is incredible. You have such control over your guitar. Truely a rare gift. God bless you!

Jeff

[etcpasswd2003]

5/5 awesome performance

[NprogresiveR]

great playing marcus

you are a real inspiration !!!!

keep rocking :)

[xRisingForcex]

i'm surprised 42 of you were able to formulate words. i'm dead speechless, rigt now.

[JoePower22]

Marcus, between your tone and vibrato I'm amazed yet again. I'm guessing that you're still using your PODXT? Do you still use that original patch you posted a while back at GMC or is this a variation? I can never get my tone quite like this. Of course I can't play like you anyway but I'm working on that. Any PODXT advice for your tone (delays, presence, reverb, drive, etc)?

[lavendell]

Thanks all for your comments!

Yes, I just use a PODxt. I don't worry too much about presets, but this one is not the same as posted at GMC. I can send you this preset if you want it? Just PM me with your e-mail :)

[torrid94]

@lavendell what pickups are you using???Amazin tone...i want that Yngwie sound...but cant really afford the Yngwie Strat so yar...

[arcainjust]

@torrid94 he is using a typical home-made strat and a line 6 PODXT send him a youtube messge with your email and hopefully he can help..but let me tell you..ITS THE PLAYING that gives yngwie's sound before anything else

[mcolquitt]

Marcus...it was fun chatting with you online the other day...I just wanted to post a remark in response to this video. It really is excellent work. You certainly have that wide vibrato down. The emotion you are able to get in the second section of this tune is outstanding.

[nostalgiaholic777]

i hate to say this ! but you overtaken yngwie on this song

Tight cover !

[werbespot]

word

[Budbud71]

Damn, Robin!

Again 5 stars, you really know how to rock ;-)

[tonyp1945]

Fantastic Marcus, please come back to GMC and do it as a lesson.

Tony

[alfalfasprout69]

[lavendell]

Thanks all for your kind comments!! I really appreciate it :)

[TonyTakano]

@lavendell I am amazed by all of your other videos !! One of the amazing parts on you is your tone!! Can I have the preset too??? Wanna try with my XT.

[doomduck92]

You never stop amazing me... I actually think u play it better than him...

[CategoryV]

Awesome, you made my day, dude!

[JohnnyTsak316]
