For the Love of God (Steve Vai cover)

[killom3]

@izitt I have one :)

[pachanka11]

wow nice interpretation !!!!!!!! very intense

you rock

[killom3]

@pachanka11 Thank you ;)

[100dominater]

you rock

[100dominater]

how do you get the steve vai sound i know the whole song but cant get the sound, i subscribed

[killom3]

Try with a bit of chorus and delay, for the first theme use the neck pickup with closed tone's pot. Work also on the eq.

[killom3]

Sorry I've deleted for mistake a comment from L4toid:

Q:On a scale from 1-10 how hard was this song for you to learn?

************************

A: I've studied it for about 2-3 months. It wasn't too difficult to me except for the sweep section, so I say 6/7.

[Junnage]

What pickups are in the Jackson?

[killom3]

SD Hot Rails and TB6

[Junnage]

Wow you answered me before I finished watching the video!

[KatherinePena07]

Wow...great job! Nothing sexier than a great Steve Vai cover :)

[s1uff1sc001]

I have that guitar in Transparent Red.

[blastor8or]

very nice man... In the beganning I was actually debating weather you were faking it ...great tone :)

[ozza01]

you are officially god, dude if you that good get in a band. You could make it big time, most bands kill for guitarists like you

[killom3]

Thank you, I'm in a band yet, but we've just have founded the bassist after some months of research. I hope that now we can do something interesting ;)

[davegrohlrocks3777]

What guitar is that and what pedals and amp are you using? Sounded great, well done!

[killom3]

For this video I used a Jackson SL-3, Engl Powerball, Bad Horsie II and Pod XT Live for effects. Thanks!

[lethalxwisdom]

Nice job dude.

[marmos91]

WOW!! Sei veramente bravo! Se hai voglia prova a passare a vedere la mia versione e darmi qualche consiglio thx! Complimenti!

[CrucifyOwnz]

You tried to improvise the hammer on and pull off bit, I died a little bit inside. But very nice, I liked the rest

-Adeem

[nocboii123]

did it take long to learn?

[killom3]

About 2 month, if I remember well!

Thank you ;)

[killom3]

[danybilhas]

good job

[wefdf3]

Is that a POD 2.0? What amp model do you select to get only the effected sound? Great job BTW!

[killom3]

No the amp in this video is an Engl Powerball, i used a Pod XT live only for delay and chorus!

Tnx

[TehROFLcopter]

great job

[chorneto2]

this is an original floyd roses? or its licence by jackson? excuse me my english i speak spanish.

[killom3]

It's the license FR made by Takeuchi!

[TimoSomers]

Great cover man!

I love your bends & vibrato.

I am looking for an Engl Powerball too, do you like the sound of the powerball in comparison to for example a mesa boogie dual rectifier? Thanks in advance

[killom3]

I never played with a dual rectifier, the powerball is a great amp for me, you have to try it! Thank you!

[sportsportsport]

whats that neck pick up like, does it contain humbucker qualities and can it cope with metallica, malmsteen and guns and roses style neck pick up sounds ?...also is this a neck thru model ?....thanks if you get back to me.

[killom3]

The neck Hot Rail is fantastic, I love how it sounds with this guitar. I think that is good for that kind of sounds. Yes, the guitar is neck through!

[rockmetalmachine]

eii man great songfbut please is that the jackson soloist sl3? how it sound? is the sustain that good?

[killom3]

I've replied you in the other video!

[salimshah]

amzing stuff just little thing i picked in your video your picking is the same as kirk hammett. vai 4ever

[klingle123]

haha. i have the same guitar (but it's in transparent red). btw, nice job!

[cream2570]

what do you think about this guitar? i want to buy a ibanez rg 2550 or a jackson sl3? wich one is better in your opinion? P.S great playing man! Vai For Ever

[killom3]

I like this guitar, great construction and fingerboard, the neck is bigger than ibanez. Long sustain and powerful distorsion sound. Clean sounds are a little "muddy" so i've splitted pickups in 2-4 position. The bridge works well.

I've never played the rg2550, so I don't know.

Thanks ;)

[cream2570]

thanks man

[naxoguitar]

genial :)

ve mis videos

[killom3]

I never played the DK2 so I don't know, I think it's better than the LP to play this song because of the floyd..

Thank you!

[deathmetaliscool]

Abiti vicino a me =) bravo comunque, continua cosi'

[rbfbock]

I'm impressed! Well done! Greets from Holland.

Ronald

[svojyla]

great man, youre good. Keep rocking.

is that licenced floyd rose stay in tune when you do dive bombs?

[killom3]

Yes, it stay in tune well!

[thelycandraven]

great!!! very very nice!!!!I can't believe that powerball actually gave you that vai sound..you played it perfectly..and I know how hard it is to play 6 minutes accurately and record yourself..5 dtars no doubt!!keep on rockin dude'! thelycandraven

[marimartux]

bella michele...

bella esecuzione...

la canzone almeno a te e'venuta bene...

complimenti...

ciao ciao

[esprulz]

good job man

[MegaReece]

really nice cover here buddy i have a pod xt live and the powerball but i cant get reverb and delay out of it like you do without messing up the tone out of the amp, how do you do it??

[killom3]

For the setup of the Powerball i use channel 4, with bass boost and focused switches on, with about low at 6/10, mid 9/10, high 7/10. Presence 2-3/10 (depend on the power amp volume) and depth at 5/10. For effects i set the mix on the Pod to 100%: from the pod i get only the effected sound (chorus+delay+reverb) and than i mix dry with wet sound by the knob on the rear of the Powerball (about 2/10). I hope this infos will be helpful to you!

[so1id]

great job!!! you are fantastic keep it up i love the tone too!

[DigitalWeddingPro]

Very nice man. Do you have the Stock pups in that? I thought all Sls came with the JB bridge? What does this one have in it?

[killom3]

Yes, pickups are stock: 2 hot rails + TB4..Soloists come with TB4 or EMG (in fixed bridge version) i think!

[MegaReece]

what are you amp setting in this aswell, sounds really nice! :)

[jimihendrix45]

I kinda of sounds like the recording. Butgood job anyways!

[pyrowolf54]

Hey I love the cover. My SL-3 is in the mail, and I can't wait. What kind of amp and pedals are you running through?

[killom3]

For this cover i used:

ENGL Powerball 100w head

Home made 2x12 cabinet (celestion v30)

Morley bad horsie 2 contour wah

TS-808 clone

Pod XT live in parallel fx loop for delay and chorus

Thank you :)

[john19921]

how is the jackson do u like it how does the neck play and whats the bridge like :) good playing

[killom3]

Yes i like it, the neck is fast, the bridge is a jackson licensed Floyd Rose, it works well but i will replace it with an original FR in future! I have splitted bridge and neck pickup in 2 and 4 position to get a nice clean sound..

[iceman86it]

Sempre meglio!!
