technical difficulties (racer x)

[johnny11771]

this might be the worlds hardest song, you did great bro!!

[astarliogluefe]

work on minumum movement exercises. you ll get even faster.

[xTonyxMaddenx]

Even trying at your age was one hell of an achievement!

[wtfwhoisthisguy]

pretty sweet playing. That's impressive

[steviesmj]

its good but your tone sucks..

[MrJeffkob]

i love it when paul's guitar play is on an cool metal-ish effect like that, it sounds so much better

[Vanyy09]

No shit ..your Great :)

[DaarKful]

Great work dude !

[Daniel513555]

its nothing wrong with youre playing but it does sound too.. flat. awesome job anyways

[deathwagon94]

get your tone worked out dude !

[jaymzosborne111]

Well, if you havente tried learning this yourself yet its fucking hard, it took me a week to get it to my own precision. Notice he plays the fast lick perfectly? He can only not alternate pick its just he hasnt had enough time to practice and is obviously ready to record him jamming it lol

[gianniswildchild]

DUDE YOU ARE PLAYING FUCKING GILBERT!who da fuck cares about some mistakes?

[joshrussell18]

i dont understand why people talk shit about this, he plays fucking good, maybe not perfect to the song, but thats why its called a cover, take your ego's somewhere else, nothing makes me more sick then guitarists who are so high on themselfs, and like always, good cover Rasite, you motivate me to be like you one day :D

[Guppy915]

That's awesome!!!!!!!! Racer X is the best, and you are awesome for being able to play it!

[dddobriak]

bad

[Slashgordan]

I am your fan..!

[TheSiggarn]

is that a alexi laiho replica?

[shinn43]

@TheSiggarn ESP SV standard.

[husky36092]

@shinn43 which is what the alexi range was developed from- just some more info:)

[blackblood42]

Nice man what kinda guitar is this?

[Intodeathmetal24]

Are you playing a ran guitar? i love the gold hardware.

[gumle2003]

@Intodeathmetal24 It's an ESP SV Standard :) I'm saving money for one of these axes too :p

[zubestr]

tone is pretty annoying but other then that it fucking rocked

[Guppy915]

@zubestr. It's the amp, he needs some tubes. But shut up, this kid don't not need to know that. Practice and skill is better than any gear. It's not the guitar, it's the guitarist. He would need himself a nice Marshall JCM fo good tones.

[cmv140]

your still awesome as shit. I want your guitar. lol

[saltgamer]

that esp is sick how much was it

[MiikeCS]

those are some damn fast fingers dude

[ox0Jason0xo]

gotta love guitar pro =P

[MariosGuy]

how fun would it be to have a guitar that sounded like his.... T-T

[Bligahphlarum]

never do double stop bends on a floyd rose guitar, please, the not bended note gets knocked out of tune!!

[RCstrats]

Beautiful guitar my man!! Great sound . Your palm muting sounded like a machine gun. Steady and even!! Me like!!

[Reanimation93]

Nice playing ;).

You should cover some Necrophagist stuff

[WutangClan4LiF3]

very nice playing man your fast and accurate

[deanrockerr1994]

PLEASE put up a lesson of this. best cover ive seen

[XavSch]

lol... you play scales exactly like alexi laiho plays them

[MariosGuy]

@XavSch lol yeah and i love his little 3 string sweeptap at the end of the solo just added a little laiho touch in it.

[MrZexion15]

how did u learn it

[alldham]

Awesome guitar dude.

[theaxelofrose]

Yeah, you do need to work on your bends, but otherwise great cover man!

[a1guitarcoach]

Your Bending and vibratos are very weak! yeah the picking is cool, however Paul Gilbert goes to GREAT lengths in his videos, when talking about elements that create great pieces of music and demo's individual flare and style. All the best players in the world are recognisable solely but there strengths in Vibrato, and Accurate string bends.

[graxionchacal]

gob job (y)

[Veepee666]

Hell yeaaaah 1:09 is awsome.

[Unseenbass]

Fucking excellent, man!

[MrsVallejoLaiho]

Awesome! I love that guitar

[JooZer]

Ever heard of palm-muting? :p

[takuyadesuu]

@kevinboy117

You're wrong , the esp signature alexi laiho has only one emg-hz pickup

here it's an esp SV standart with two EMG actives pickups.

check rasite's profil he has write his gear and he said : esp sv standard ;)

[connord12]

NICE

[mattbrown]

you're very good. you should work on vibrato and bends. those are alright but you should get them up to par with your picking skillz

[PhoenixSinistra]

uve got the skills to play this and much harder songs , but in this vid there were some minors problems specially on 0:15->0:16 & 0:19->0:21 cuz ure not playing all the notes. or maybe ure playin but i cant hear it . but amazing job overall ;)

[takuyadesuu]

@Metalmorte94 it isn't a Jackson RR3 !

It's an ESP SV standart

[kevinboy117]

@takuyadesuu no its a esp alexi laiho signature Standard ESP version

[thesouthafricanguy]

@kevinboy117 It isn't man... Alexi's signatures has ONE bridge pickup which is a EMG-HZ, this is a ESP SV standard with two EMG actives... Alexi's also have Sharktooth inlays where as this has dot inlays... Close, but no cigar man

[kevinboy117]

@takuyadesuu no its a standard esp alexi laiho signature

[metalmorte94]

nice guitar, is it jackson RR3?

[melodicdeath1212]

Why aren't you in an amazing band?!

[Sunedosa]

Good apart from the vibrato/bending.While it's easier to master a decent vibrato than many other techniques its often overlooked.Your bending and vibrato sound far less controlled than your alternate picking etc and imo it would make you sound much more complete if you worked on it.Early days yet though,you have plenty of time to develop your skills ,good luck :)

[112358miau]

Maybe mutting the strings a bit would sound better

[randalldunman94]

Sick guitar by the way.

[randalldunman94]

Your tone is very "weird." I think its just missing bass, but I mean you play well enough so that's no problem. It's all about the playing.

[bartuc13]

you're a little bit out of time ;-) but very nice job man! you're a beast! sorry for my english =)

[IbanezPGM300]

Yeahhhhhh,Cool)))

[evhsrvfe]

Awesome job bro!!! Your alternate picking is really good

[AngryLlamaz]

i think ur timing is off

[AcroMiller]

man ur a beast at playin that thing lol

[DragonForcebest]

need to 0:12 palmute or not?

[MetalMurchentOfDeath]

yeah it should be PM'd

[DragonForcebest]

I play it fast and it sounds like palmmuted xD

[RevilationGuitar91]

suomipojat rokkaa koviten :)

[Guitar1sti]

@RevilationGuitar91 unohda, ne vitun aasialaiset pilaamassa aina kaiken :l

[63falcondude]

that was awesome, personally i think palm muting the intro part makes it sound better

[SixxHundredSixtySixx]

HOLY SHIT! your my hero!

[Veepee666]

dude ...im one of your fan your just awsomly awsome XD.lol yeah your really good

[XXneedsmorebassXX]

not bad. but i think you should work with a metronome a bit more. keep on shreddin'!

[orfeasdaron]

is it enough to ask for an autograph??

[jedivolt]

put some more aggression into your playing and don't miss the palm mutes for the "main riff" in the beginning

[RideTheSkySF]

Very nice man. I bet half the kids commenting this video cant even play marry had a little lamb.

Lol good job dude, keep at it :D

[nightpwner]

Oh man I gotta learn that! Marrys lamb rocks lol.

yeah this dude is awesome.

[tyraxLoL]

Millä vireellä tää on soitettu? :)

[texasvsfear1]

are people really commenting on how the kid doesn't have vibrato? just be quiet. Give credit where credit is obviously do. Don't be like "Oh you're great!!!! but you don't have vibrato (shaking you're wrist a certain way, pretty much) so you aren't really THAT good." And he does use vibrato in certain parts, sooooo argument over. Good job man. Keep up the good work.

[steomcc]

im amazed

[NonstopRocker03]

It's insane how fast and precise you can play, even though you suck pretty bad >_> you have literally no vibrato or feel or anything

[TheEmperialWrath]

So he sucks because he has no vibrato? So going by that logic, someone who can't play fast, but has vibrato sucks as well. Thanks for clearing that up for me

[NonstopRocker03]

I mean he's technically good, but he just sucks. I can't exactly put my finger on what it is.

[TheEmperialWrath]

I think what you're trying to put your finger on is that you're an idiot lol

[brendanpr21]

I'll put my finger on it for you, you are jealous.

[Ozznize]

@NonstopRocker03 indeed. if guitar pro was a human it would sound like this. thats the way he sounds.

[ryan4951]

@NonstopRocker03 lets see you do better bud :)

[mrguitarvertigo]

@NonstopRocker03 so why dont you do it feeling ?

[iateacidsmurf]

@NonstopRocker03 so because one aspect of his playing isn't up to par he sucks? and as far as feeling goes he's a metal guitarist, feeling is for fucks

[BroodLOrdz]

@NonstopRocker03 N00b hater that can't even play a D Chord

[TheRealMechanix]

@NonstopRocker03 yea you're right, he plays everything perfectly yet it doesn't sound good

[venkutu92]

the ending is sick

[xlespaulgothicx]

ino!!!!!!!!!!! the ending is actually easier than it looks suprisingly to me thats the easiest part i can only do the chorus an ending yet lol ive onbly been playin a year but i practice 8 hours a day that means puttin headphoes in my amp and stayin up all night lol but badass cover the only full cover i think

[BrunBacken]

very nice. indeed!

[CanduterioCS]

669 O.o

[LazerRazor7]

666 ratings! :O

[ubershredder1989]

good chops, but work on your bending and vibrato, many people overlook the fact that its acctually harder than stuff like sweep picking and alternate picking

[hewofwend]

I disagree man are you meaning just in this song or in general??

[ubershredder1989]

in general. vibrato and bending doesnt require just metronome practice, it requires a good ear and accuracy, control, aswell as strength, and requires the player to have feel to make use of it properly. it is especially hard when you play a fast phrase and end it with a wide vibrato note followed by another fast passage. also, just common sense-wise, take youtube for instance, there are thousands that can shred, but few that can acctually make it sound good.

[Joziaac]

But do they sound bad because they can't bend or use vibrato properly or because their shredding is sloppy?

[ubershredder1989]

@Joziaac both

[Joziaac]

I think the sloppiness of shredding and an over-all lack of melody are bigger factors in how shredding sounds bad than vibrato and bending. Although obviously you can completely rape something by bending way off pitch constantly.

As for vibrato, you can't really tell someone they're using it too much or too little, because it's entirely dependant on taste. Some like to use vibrato all the time, some like to use it sparingly. Some like a deep vibrato, some like a very subtle one.

[Whiteguitarful]

cool good you did it,but more practis lol..i like your guitar

[krabathor1]

i think it is sv standard

[Cjthecc]

i really hope that you're muting is being made to sound worse than it is by guitar pro, cos it kills the performance.

good work on the ending though, i struggle like fuck with that bit.

[Link3618andLiquid]

dude, that guitar is awsome. laiho?

[maciekg16kutno]

Dude, my ears are your slaves !! :)

[Bopkins14]

great job man, if you like paul gilbert check out some of my vids. Keep up the good work man.

[davydyyz]

you´re a great player, but im with finowa

[TheDouglasWay]

turn on RSE dude x) midi in GP5 sounds like a beaten dog...

[finowa]

honestly, fast players come a dime a dozen. it's one thing to learn how to replicate fast finger movements across the fretboard, but it's the feel of your INSTRUMENT that really shows what you're able to do. i won't use the word "emotion" since it isn't really relevant.

i really don't get the "who cares about the vibrato he's better than all of you" remarks. who the fuck cares about another francesco fareri clone if they can't hold a single note without making it sound like shit?

[Akoustikus]

Look up his Via Purifico video. This video is two and a half years old.

[Akoustikus]

That last comment was a response to finowa.

I forgot to mention that I agree, a perfect guitar player should be the total package, but nobody is a perfect player.

[giveitupforcheerios]

just cause he's fast dosnt mean he can't do the rest. My friend and guitarist can play most genres well for a guy of his age. so calm down.

[hewofwend]

Mehhhhh average shredders are too easy to find.

But if you listen closely they just use the distortion to hide all their mistakes.

It's quite rare to find a shredder that can play every note perfectly at blistering speeds i reckon.

This is a well done cover too btw good show!!

[MetalChild96]

awesome cover :D you are an amazing guitar player!!!

[metalmaniacmarkus]

hahah kudos on the solo man but u played the beggining a bit wrong, ur supposed to palm mute while hitting both strings at the same time while changing notes,lol, but the rest is pretty awesome !

[mike11742069]

good

[HarryTheGreat666]

nice job man, u r good guitar player, a like the winter madness solo the most ;)

[davemorris85]

everyone's saying about vibrato, fair enough its nice to hve and improves the feeling, but with the rest of a band in the background you wouldnt notice if he didnt use any, plus with the speed of that song its bloody hard to get time for vibrato!! good effort man!!

[dookylove]

hahaha it's fucking funny to see all you guys try and give him pointers when he's like 5 times better than all of you.

[Yesterdayss]

He's better than me, yeah, but he's also the hell better than you, so stop with the lame arguments.

Besides. It's all good, but I like it better when the intro is muted.

[dookylove]

what lame argument?

i said it's funny to see you guys try and give him pointers when he's like 5 times better than you, it was a statement dude, so calm down.

[Sulfoxdrummer]

very well played. i agree with everyone that says more vibrato. vibrato puts emotion and feeling into te music. should be used on pretty much any held note

[Gasolineboy]

One word ...Beast...

[HypnosArg]

you are good :D I would work a bit on my left hand's fingering , if you keep your fingers closer to the strings and economize a little movement you could get a lot more fluid :D anyway! nice playing and guitar

[xander2105]

You are awesome

[lastserenadeUK]

You play well, but where the vibrato?

[gibson0142]

nice guitar

[MetallicaBLS]

Nice work...try a bit more palm muting, and for the monster pentatonic lick in the very beginning of the solo, try doing it three note per string rather than up the standard pentatonic shape...I think you'll find it to be easier and cleaner

[Bartholmeus2]

nice, but you don't use vibrato enough. Style falls off when no vibra :D but very nice still :D

[crashnebulaon1ce]

nice :D:

[etienne65320]

!!!!!!! good!!!!!!!!!!!!! and i like you guitar

[40isbest]

aw aw aw aw aw awsone

I Like ur guitar

[ihatethis777]

Its ok but its still a bit sloppy, need to clean it up some and listen to the palm mutes he combines with that song. Other than that great job man and keep it up.

[AnarchyAnt89]

Nice playing man, the only thing missing was vibrato. Still, well done, it's hardly an easy piece =P.

[SurdicForest]

nice fuck playing

[kilyatwice]

Absolutely amazing.

I dream of one day being as good as you :)

[pl4yb0yXXX]

suomalaiset vaan osaa =D ite oon harjotellu tän alkua ja menee päin vittua :D mut oot tosi hyvä =DD

[deathspecter007]

Would lend half of your skill?? xD

You're an awsome player

[Wolfenstahl]

wtf?

[Nocrob1]

this isnt alexi, its sv standard

they look similar but this one has 1 more pickup ;)

[HAIKELzambri]

O.O omg!! 2 pickups?

so its ltd sv standard? idk XD

[bakurasbrother]

holy shit haha very nice dude im gonna start listening to racer x cuz of u

[DimiCOB]

esp sv standard bk gh is it called and in thomann u can find it with 1666 euros,but with chrome hardware only....

[XxCaRvAlHoOxX]

How much that guitar cost? D:

[killzdaman06]

all i have to say is well done :-)

[bmw330im54]

great!!

[Bubbleboy1314]

Yeah, without palm muting it just sounds like a big never ending run. Still really good =)

[Deathbringerful]

Even if you can play it like 80% it's still fucking awsome . Cheers from Estonia .

[Jonsk12394]

nice on the arpeggios

[themanwins]

Would have been better if the song you're playing too was a little louder so I could make it out better but brilliant dude. Keep rocking.

[lukeinthehouse]

You fucking own!

[Tr3ndkill97]

exelent man!!!! i has same guitar :)

[rootbeer10122]

Nice job dude.

Guitar sounds really nice too.

[lespaulking69]

lol you arent palm muting at all like in the song

[Lambardo665]

yeah, it would sound little better if there were atleast some palm muting.. But great cover still :)

[ilanbd2007]

WOW!

you r goooood!!!!!

[Bernier94]

WOW Good Job Dude

[lars06it]

GRANDE

[kpgpwi64]

...me not ma

[kpgpwi64]

noone ever plays that thing at 1:43 its like super easy. if you want the tabs send ma a message and i'll send them to you

[SlavesShallServe6]

That's my favorite part to play XD

[samjohannes]

you can sweep very well, obviously, but you need to learn to alternate pick.

[majcica]

lol ur saying he cant ap...ur obviously retarded

[ryanlogue0122]

dude what kinda guitar is that

[murok82]

very bad... learn to play it good !

[LaneyHead]

dude...are you gay!??

he's the best coverplayer on youtube!!!

you should learn this fucking cover!!!

[JulienDAmours]

nice job man! awsome !! Awsome guitar too ;)

[Emuxgil]

ooooooooooooooooooooo yeaaaaaaaaaaaah.... 5 estrellas

[Dante9474]

[schlabayzell]

Love this song.  Great job. Lets get hitched!

[Darthmagy]

yeah so cool only thing that got my ear was that u wernt palmuting the first riff...but yeah great 4/5

[godsmack4232]

one of the best ive seen. nice guitar, and nice job

[Guitarfreak365]

How importaint do you think it is to master alternate picking, for fast solos and other stuff?

[meakmeakmeak]

well i mostly use legato, i wish i was better at alternative picking but its hard for me to learn now because all i wanna do is play legato even if it makes the solo sound worse, so master alternative picking

[Shooweri]

Nice job dude! You're fast, but you have to work your vibrato and overall tone a bit. Keep it going!

[yairoka]

nice guitar T_T

[dimehagen]

you should palm mute the first riff! other than that, fucking great!
