@mousey26133 sorry dude I don't know if Tom does or not. If you can learn to downstroke that fast then go for it. You get a nice clean, consistent sound by using all downstrokes, good for punk music generally.
@mrciaran96 yes well like me some people have never played guitar before so help is needed. otherwise i just teach myself be happy that i think i got it then realise its completely wrong and feel sad. but i now i can play it so yayy =)
have you noticed that the song " first date " is the same way as " dammit " ? pretty cool...i think they're both pretty easy, just a bunch of practice you gotta doo. lol
for noobs its not a bad job but seriously, its not that good, he doesnt cant even get the notes to scratch properly and his guitar doesnt sound in tune
the part he forgot to cover is the same as the last one he did, you jst play those 4 power chords whith each measure for each chord 8 beats instead of 4.
its a bad idea to use the neck pickup couse tom always playd on the bridge pickup live couse i didn't have more pickups on his signature guitars so thats why i only use my bridge pickup when i play guitar . and it sounds sweet:D
Imagine there's 2 or 3 pickups on an electric guitar, the bridge pickup is the one closest to the bridge (also known as a Treble pickup). The bridge pickup is usually chosen for this type of music due to it's harsher tone.
What do you mean by special? If you mean something high-end like a Mesa-Boogie or a Marshall then no. All you need to play Dammit is any old amp and crank up the distortion and use the bridge pickup on your guitar and you're ready to go.
you could. but a better and clearer sound you get on the 5th fret of the e string. tom plays it this way. this is why hey teach it that way in the video
hi i was wondering when ur doing the power chords do you hit all the srtings or is it just the two ????? please help me someone i have got the intro perfect i just need help withe the rest
hey just a lil bit of help for anybody in the first part of the intro when you play the e string on the 5th fret its alot easier if you play the a string open
i cant find any video that plays it like the band... if you watch the music video, you'll see this isnt exactly how they play it, but it sounds good any way i guess
i saw you avenged sevenfold beast and the harlot vid and i can play it but havent got the right tune could you make a vid of how to tune a guitar like syn thanks
Nice lesson!
But seriously, are there people who need a lessen to learn this song?

Your powerchords aren't complete all the time...little finger running away a little:) For that "cleaner sound" you use palm muting.
I think that Tom's Fender only has the bridge humbucker, so I don't know how the song can be played with the neck pickup?
There are no upstrokes in this song:P
