one of the greatest intro into a solo ever. so simple but deadly. sounds kinda like turning on a killing machine (and y'know what? this solo IS a killing machine). and this guy reproduced it perfectly.
Dude that was fantastic - and what a beautiful guitar, not to mention the frankie on the wall too. I just posted a version of this too, along with a lesson on how to play the solo. rock on!
Dude you kidding me!? Only 270k hits, i can remember watched this video couple years ago, and was like this is the best cover of "beat it" solo on youtube no doubt!!!
Great playing but the sound needs work. make another video and put your playing in the left channel and the original song to the right and then it'll be easy to tell the difference.
Go to another country which doesn't have freedom of speech. This way, when someone makes a comment you do not agree with, you can kill them. Iran or China might be a good place for you.
Best I have seen so far......I like the technique more than anything. Nice dynamics.....The only thing I would change is tone...(maybe amp or pedals or something) I really love it like it is but I would mess with the tone. As a guitar player tone is everything and my tone isn't maybe what you or others may like. Its all very personal. 5 stars again
i'm pretty sure those aren't pinch harmonics. they're tapped natural harmonics...with lots of distortion. typically your main natural harmonics are on the 5th 7th and 12th frets with some odd balls in between. but if you're already fretting lets say, the 2nd fret. those natural harmonics move to the 7th 9th and 14th frets. tap the neck in those spots while fretting with some nice vibrato and you should get some pretty sick sounding harmonics. experiment with different spots on the neck too.
try barely touching the bar between the 14 and 15 fret. make sure you dont leave you finger on for too long. if done corectly, it should create a. artificial harmonic
Ciao osvaldo ! sono il ragazzo ke hai incontrato a spinazzola e ke ti ha fatto i complimenti x la serata ! ti ho pubblicato un video di risp....l'unico purtroppo ke sn riuscito a fare, anke l'audio nn è dei migliori ma ne farò altri migliori !! Ciaooo !!
There's tons of covers for this on youtube but yours in particular stands out because of the feeling that you put into it. Also you nailed the tone - in short I salute you sir! haha
Idk why but i can not do a freakin pinch harmonic!!!!!!!!!!! its killin me I wanna do one and im sure its freakin easy but i cant get the thing to do it...
dude. an awesome advice for pinch harmonics is, when you pick let your thumb hit the string after the pick, just so the skin touches. don't press, use it like your picking. Then, bend the string. its better if you hold down a fret to learn how to pinch xD i like it, its good, but i'm a neoclassical player.
it's kind of impossible to get better than this short of being eddie, and its probably better than that
