wow!... i saved this from a year or more ago, i'm so glad i did!...is that an 8 string guitar?...i finally broke down and got a tapping, but its gonna take some time at the luthier before its playable,for me anyway....great job!
Err, your tapping skills are monstrous compared to mine. Lol. Thanks! No, it's an Ibanez 7-string. I only need 6 strings on this piece though. I'm not much of a 7-string player or tapper for that matter. I'm more of a shredder, heh. You should put up some more vids! I'd love to see more of your own compositions.
This man is a genius. Playing in a band with him has opened my eyes to so many techniques and not only is he a phenomenal player but a great teacher.
Anyone who thinks that this isn't "impressive" or doesn't "have enough key changes" or things like this... you just don't get it. Guitar is an instrument where all horizons should be explored, including effects. Incorporating these things is integral to expanding creative horizons, which clearly, he's done.
but it's not meant to be played without the effects - effects are PART of the electric guitar as an instruemnt. This is written to work with the delay effect - so of course it would sound odd without it
Agree on the ethereal very nice mode setting. The digital delay effect is key to making this work though which really seems to make the piece.. but detracts from its musicality... got any stuff that shows your technique without the effects? BTW-what is it your playing?
WOW, honestley thats something you would hear in the background of a movie, when the main character is narrating something bad that happened, you know, and then explains how they got over it, man thats amzing, its sooooo beautiful!!
Read the description: a SIMPLE tapping piece, not "I'm the God of Guitar tapping piece". And can "anyone" play with delay where the slap-back is the third note in a 16th note quadruplet? No, that's not something "anyone" can do. Your timing and rhythm has to be spot-on. Either way, I made no claim for this to be a show piece or mark of genius. Thus my own description: simple.
That was beautiful. I wouldn't waste my time talking to people like that. I find it's better if you just leave them alone, they'll eventually go away. Kind of like gnats really.
