[massfirefighter]

5 *, wish I could give more.

[trikroll]

UNFUKIN REAL! ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT

[bricktopra3]

great job on the cover, I liked how you changed the 3rd verse up by strumming it and making it your own. I'm learning it myself, and thanks for the help.

[smileybone3010]

I thought that looked like carbon fiber!

[AMFKevin]

damn nice cover all the other covers people cant hit the high notes like dave but u did really good keep it up DMB rocks!!!

[windnsea619]

The carbon fiber axe is pretty sick, how do you like playing it?

[lydian7999]

fucking awesome

[laxattack260]

dude.. awesome. wat kinda guitar is that?

[themiladoman]

damn dude nice this is my fave dmb song, good shit man

[strizzetch]

Great video. The style on the chorus is awesome. Are you playing the song a half step down? I've always played the main riff starting on Ab rather than G... maybe I've been wrong lol

[aarontessis]

Thank you! No, I'm starting on Ab, but I lead with my middle finger and play the 3rd note (Bb) with my index finger on the G-string, 3rd fret. It's a little more of a stationary approach to playing the riff as oppose to sliding up and down. It's a more strain and constant stretch on the hand and fingers, but it eliminates a lot of the scratching sounds, which is what I was going for on this particular version.

[strizzetch]

Wow... I just rewatched it and figured out that I play it just the same way... The finger angles you use are crazy, but i like the less sctatchy version as well.

[aarontessis]

Thanks for the comments! I actually lead with my middle finger, so it looks like I'm playing on the 3rd fret.

[labgnat]

Kick ass job, i've got a dmb song book, the main riff is easy, but i could never hear the chorus well enough, your vid will help me a lot, great singing by the way.

[MrElmore]

It is so rare that I take the time to make a comment, but I have to thank you for the post. Cheers.

[aarontessis]

Thank you!  I prefer using 1mm nylon picks. I like the feel as well as the lightly warmer tone they emit.

[MrElmore]

What gauge pick do you use Arron?

[DanParry445]
