[centlician]

Nice playing but tune your guitar ;)

[iSlash96]

dude, you have to relax, it is good but slash plays it so relaxed, that makes it sound awesome!

[lego398]

[raku10]

@lego398 Cannon FS10

[TheFerrari250]

I really LOVE your guitar

[MrSappdrag]

[MrSappdrag]

[MrSappdrag]

what amp are you using?

[HippyRang0r]

Nice but 11 months?!?! im 11 years old and i got the intro done in a day. I'm gonna learn the rest of the song but it takes 11 months?

[sn4p3r]

nice dude...can you tell me wich distortion you are using please?

[raku10]

@sn4p3r I used a Podxt Live Pedal.

Please checkout my newer version of the full cover

[theaeg]

the sound from guitar is awesome

[theblackrevolver]

sounds pretty awsome man :)

[Neton16]

same guitar effect, thats awesome dude!

[MrBassbomb]

Your good great job!

[jrmcelro]

Nice work. Keep practicing. I can remember learning the same song to about the same degree of fidelity back when I had only been playing a year (about 20 years ago) and those were good times. In reference to some of the other comments you've gotten, I hope you will continue to study whatever you want to study in whatever order you choose. Unless you're hoping to make a living by playing guitar you should just do whatever makes you happiest. Keep it up!

[raku10]

thx for the kind words..

[pimpifyable]

wow ur like his mentor? gay

[JeevesMorris1]

@pimpifyable after reading all your comments on this video I've decided what you are. You're one of those internet tough guys who in reality prolly can't play guitar for shit but likes to come around and tell people that you and your band that prolly doesn't exist sound better than them. Or like you did me and two others that we're gay or a fag. Ya know its people like you who bring a bad name to music. So go back to trying to give yourself head and leave me and the other real musicians alone

[MrMOMOJAZZ]

Learn the rhythm of the song before you play solo. You got the signature solo licks pretty well but thruought the song (the vocal part) you rely on the backing track and almost dont play at all, or play the rhythm parts wrong with no energy or feel. Its a common beginners mistake. Be a good rhythm guitarist before becoming a solo guitarist. If you cant play rhythm well in band situatuon you will be of no use to anybody.

[firegeek22]

@MrMOMOJAZZ your exactly right when I first decided to play guitar i learned almost all the chords first and got down basic songwriting, THEN i started learning scales now i am actually a pretty good guitarist. Lead in my band and we sound amazing.

[pimpifyable]

"and we sound great" ur gay, my band bet u sounds like ten times better

[JeevesMorris1]

I'm sorry but there is no feeling in this... If you're going to cover Slash at least have some soul. Don't be so busy on the wah. Feel it! Thats what its all about! its not about how close can you come to Slash its about can you capture the soul that he put into the song... And in this case you didn't... Sorry

[pimpifyable]

wow capture the soul of the song, hes just playing a cover u fag, hes not on stage

[JeevesMorris1]

that proves that you clearly know nothing about the true meaning of music. You should be able to find your own connection with every song that you love and want to play. Sweet Child O' Mine is an amazing love song with lyrics that Axl wrote to his wife. Its a song that the softer side of you connects with and says "HEY! I wanna feel like that about someone" From that point on you have a connection with it. So whether he's playing a cover or not he should ALWAYS try to capture the soul of it.

[YoAmAGangster]

does this guitar differ from the normal epi 56 goldtop?

if not, is it a solid purchase? I wanna upgrade from my LP100. 56 gold top is my 1st option, but also there is LP standard top. im not sure, can u plz give me ur feedback?

[raku10]

I have never played an epi 56 goldtop..should be about the same, guitar wise.. the only differences I can recall are the SLASH truss rod cover, long neck tenon, Alnico Pro II Pickups and the slash neck profile...

[firegeek22]

@YoAmAGangster epi gold top is alot different from this guitar i have this one and i have checked out the epi gold top, it has soap bar pick ups for one thing, and the neck is not as big, but not as close to the neck pick up either, tuning pegs r different too go on guitar center and research.

[JeevesMorris1]

Hey bud since I can't see anybody that helped you out with this I figured I would try. The difference from this and the normal 56 goldtop's are that the normal ones have Gibson single coil pick ups in them and the Slash models have his humbuckers in them

[Stratodude06]

@JeevesMorris1 yea or in the slash epiphone theres alnico pro pick ups so these arent the right ones...

[phildrummer1]

am getting one \m/ !!!!

[VR0123]

did you take off the pickgaurd?

[lancenair]

ya kinda looks like a gibson then

[fretboarder]

oh no you didnt play gnr on a slash lp lol..

[uvais147]

Dude , you've got such an awesome guitar .... Please learn to tune before recording .... the b and g strings are way off ..... anyways , nice cover .

[Jordo1900]

you need to tune your guitar half a step down its slashs tuning

[wolferber]

tuning sounds off

[revolutionday1]

Who the hell is signing on this??  Sounds like some Guitar Hero-shit.

[raku10]

it's from Guitar Hero - sans guitar track, so good for practice..

[revolutionday1]

Guess I hit the ol' nail on the head then ;-) I guess it would be passable for jamming-over purposes, sure.

[zari194]

nice job

[kubzal]

nice but please change strings

[1projectreality]

im 13 n been playing around a year too, watch my sweet child o mine vid good job

[Shelbones01]

anyone know if actual wah pedals are better then the ones in the pod xt lives.... i have a GCB-95

[slashthebestone]

good actual pedals usually are better then the ones in the PODs..my opinion tho..i have a Dunlop 95Q Wah pedal and never seen a wah that can match it! Boss and Dunlop are the best for me! try them out before buying a POD!

[Shelbones01]

yeah i doubt im getting one hahah im gonna try and hold off for a bit and get a descent amp

[slashthebestone]

@Shelbones01 lol yea a good amp is 50% of your tone! but why you think you won't get one? pedals are so cheap in the USA! in Brazil we pay twice as much!!lol

[Shelbones01]

i dont make any money hahah i dont have a job and cant get one for a year

[slashthebestone]

@Shelbones01 ooo i see! yea me neither! lol we're on the same boat my friend lol

[Shelbones01]

and now im starting to fall in love with SG's..... but an amp is still at the top of my list hahah

[slashthebestone]

lol i need a good guitar at the moment..then i'll need a good amp to match it lol

[Shelbones01]

what kind of guitar do you have?

[slashthebestone]

i have an Epiphone Les Paul and what about you?

[hermilo22]

Try to hide the fail

[pipe2k27]

very nice men good solo for 11 months

[jumpingjames1]

which wah pedal are you using?

[raku10]

I think the Chrome Wah in the Line6 Live XT

[dudewhosaysarrh]

Isn't the Chrome Wah-preset more like a VOX 847?

[raku10]

i have no ideas...sorry...

[bbqchips82]

11 months playing and you already had a $1000 guitar? WWTTTFFF!! i've been playing for three years, with the same guitar since i started epiphone sg g310

[CLOV3RGEEZ]

its an epiphone you nub. not a gibson

[debs222]

epiphones arnt usually that expensive , its around 300-650 actually

[rocktaker]

slash les paul is a $1200 guitar,you can check the price..not like other epiphone les paul.

[debs222]

hmm well my friend got his for 180 sterling.

[Scearus]

Umm... What backing track is that? That doesn't sound like Axl...

[raku10]

Guitar Hero

[Scearus]

Wtf...

[lovechotalin]

bastante bueno exelent guitar men

[Luigiaco]

do you use any pedals effect for the intro (not solo wah- wah)

or could you tell me which effects and ampliefier are you using????

[raku10]

I used line6 PODXT Live pedal and active studio monitors

[AustinSk84life95]

do u think this is better then a Gibson les paul studio??? PLEASE answer back i am trying to decide which one i want and dude that's the first song i learned to

[raku10]

Better is a very subjective. I had a studio before, but the cheaper one , the Vintage Mahogany one. It was very nice, and well constructed. I'm sure the more expensive ones are even better/nicer. But the Studios had 50s neck profile, which I felt was too think for me. The Slash has a slimmer neck..plus I'm a big fan of slash, so I kept the Epiphone. I suggest you try out both and decide of yourself. They both are very good guitars.

[AustinSk84life95]

k cool thanks

[AustinSk84life95]

but what about quality?

[izzy1991ziberi]

dude you are perfect.keep rocking :D:D

[nthvt5672]

its on sale at gc for 699

[shoreyproductions]

have you been playing for 11 months or learning that song for 11 months nice vid but the solo could have had more emotion

[raku10]

Both, I have been playing for 11 months only and scom is the song I wanted to learn

[golferdude29]

Alx's voice in the background....it's from guitar hero 2 as you can tell it doesn't sound anything like it!

[raku10]

i know that, but it's a good for a practice backing track, since it's in the right tuning Eb.

[guitarfreakpaul]

you should play the solo with more felling, slash doesnt just stand there he runs around and crap like that

[guth4n17]

it doesn't matter if he doesn't play it with lots of feeling.. he's only been playing for 11 months and if he would run around etc. he couldn't consentrate on the playing!

[raku10]

lol, first I'm no Slash, second this is not a live stage, lastly I have to operate my pedal to switch sounds, since I don't have a dedicated guitar tech to do it for me at the backstage.

[fdsa7777]

stfu with this feeling shit,

more feeling my ass just listen to the damn thing.

[avegard]

i didn't like the solo, but all the rest was NICE played!

I guess you are a Riff/vocals guitar player, no solo.

I Can only do Riffs and solo's good, so you are very good :) i've have played in 12 months :) so we are very close, haha

[choka1495]

very very good ur recovery frm missing the bend was excellent keep it up dude

[torontont]

can u plz plz tell me how much this guitar is?? thx!

[headsh0ot]

$1,512 or somethign close so yeah i might get one :D

[ChRIs23696]

ive seen them for $600

[LTDusersince99]

Man you're So full of money... Epiphone slash signature and a Pod XT... where's the pool so I could swim a bit

[alexander921]

hey man you need 11 months practice... im 2 weeks practice my version.

yes my version is bad. so im practice more on my tune.

you plays a les paul, im play a simple guitar.... XD

good song and my rank for you is 5 stars

[LTDusersince99]

unless your neck is in really bad shape, like no more frets and a Bad shaped Neck, guitar brand is not a problem here.

[jthoov]

Awesome;

I've been playing 3 years and I can't do anything close to that.. haha

Don't be so insecure with your work and try to justify your mistakes. Just make the mistakes and if any ass on youtube says anything, tell them to STFU.

[raku10]

thx, let's just enjoy playing the guitar...

[Slasshh12]

in the intro i thought that was from ADF u got almost exactly the same tone as Slash!Can u really get it so close with the PodXt Live`?

[raku10]

well, in this video, my Podxt live is plugged into a pair Roland active studio monitors.

To get the most out of the Pods, don't plug them into guitar amps. Unless it's a power amp only, like the Tech21 Power Engine and Atomic amps.

[Slasshh12]

'key, thanks for the advice man

[joey20112]

great job dude. now when you said about 11 months, how many days out of the week did you practice? and how long did it take you to learn this song?

[raku10]

I've been pretty much none-stop practicing for the whole 11 months.

[fajkelpl]

And backup track is from Guitar Hero II, i think.

[raku10]

yeah, actually found it here on youtube, cause I don't play video games, any more...

[fajkelpl]

Nice. You removed pickguard, right? It looks way better without it.

[alexander921]

great

im playing this song on 5 months

[Slashi12]

Great Playing and Great Guitar !!  Keep it up

[iamnotanyoneso]

if its an epiphone where's the pickguard?

[raku10]

Well, I simply took it off.

[mikeg123123]

i wanted to get this copy do u like it and is it worth the money

[raku10]

I love it, it's very nice guitar. A lot of ppl seem to be happy.

Value, is a very personal thing. If you are to built this guitar your own will cost you about $800

Epi Standard $500

SD Pickups set $180

Hardcase $90

Strap + Goodies $30

Long neck tenon $??

So is Slash's name worth the extra $200??

[mikeg123123]

got 1 more qhestion you know those those stickers that first come on the guitar? can u take it of?

[raku10]

I don't want to be rude, but do you see any stickers on my guitar?

[mastergiovanni321]

check out my video, i have the same guitar, i show myself unboxing it too

[FaNwlnG]

very good work with the whole song, just need some practise on the solo... anyway 5/5

(ps... check out my channel if you got some time)

[muki991]

[mikeg123123]
