Kings of Leon - Use Somebody - Electric Guitar Cover with Solo

[BraveMavrick]

Pretty good! nice tone, and well done for by ear. If I can give you some advice, work on your timing, you were a little ahead of yourself on a few parts.

[Jochemguitar]

Nice guitar!



[MrHuntarx]

absoloutely amazin,i just love it. 10/10

[ddsgolfedge]

@MrHuntarx Thanks!!!

[ListenToKimmi]

i learned to play this song off rocksmith no joke

i hoping to find some blink182 songs to learn

[terukitaa]

you're terrific... really!

[manuel5412]

how much did that guitar cost you?? its freakin nice!!

[birkaification]

great cover of my favorite song! love it! :)

[dillydan88]

Nice version. Would you mind sending me the chords/tabs for the Riff bit? at around 2:20-2:40

[francorizzoo]

Awesome place, awesome guitar, really great cover!

[Posnerfication]

Dayum. That is a nice guitar.

[Kats072307]

very proffesional man

great

[ddsgolfedge]

Thanks everyone for the kind comments, y'all are too nice. A lot of people are asking for tabs - I'm sorry but I don't have any. I learned this song by listening to it and watching Matthew on live performances. My teacher always told me (and most will agree) the best way to learn a song is to take the time to figure it out yourself instead of going straight to tabs. There's just something about that process that makes you a better player. Again, sorry I don't have any!

[rustyjames761]

@ddsgolfedge goddam nice guitar how much did set you back if you dont mind me asking

[SlickNick5000]

@ddsgolfedge I know! Except I learned to play "The Immortals" when I saw them live, and it's even 10X more badass when they play "Velvet Snow" in freaking 2011 in America (never thought I'd see a YandYM song live). I was just totally focused on what Caleb was playing, because I really couldn't find any clear videos

[Falloutfan961]

@ddsgolfedge i actually try to sound it out and i compare what i learn against tabs afterwards to see which one fits better when playing along.

[thorlink]

Dude awesome.. Mind sharing the tabs? =) I'm a beginner here and saw you playing and am totally inspired by your vid!

[gewoonbobber]

Nice guitar dude!

[tiochocabron]

i wanna see you play in shorts with the t shirt off ,i'll more HOT N SEXY!

[dilz97]

<.< totally jealous... :P that was awesome 

[THEJBLAZEY]

Can You Play Hearts Burst Into Fire By Bullet For My Valentine?

[Mesaman44]

Nice Guit !

[poshwa]

is the final solo only on the b string?

[ddsgolfedge]

@poshwa Actually on the G string. It can be done on the B, but to my ears and after watching live performances I'm pretty sure that's how he plays it. But if you want to play on the B, go for it!

[greglfc123]

yo that was an amazing cover. can you possibly tell me what pedals you are using? especially for the overdiven/distorted sound of matthews guitar, and is it just clean when playing calebs part? thanks alot.

[ddsgolfedge]

@greglfc123 Thanks!! If you look under the video it'll tell you exactly what I'm using :) The distortion pedal is off when playing the clean part, and just turn it back on when playing the lead part. I didn't include this in the description, but I do turn on an overdrive for the solo. Gives it a stronger punch.

[ddsgolfedge]

@greglfc123 Sorry, the overdrive is turned on in addition to the distortion for the solo.

[greglfc123]

@ddsgolfedge thanks alot mate, i'm definately going to invest in a fulltone ocd because of this. is your amp on clean with just the pedals is it?

[ddsgolfedge]

@greglfc123 You'll like the OCD for sure. Yep, the Vox AC30 has a brilliant channel but no dist. switch. The louder you turn it up, the more the sound breaks up; pretty much what Vox's are known for.

[greglfc123]

@ddsgolfedge thanks alot you've been a great help, yeah i have an AC30vr which is like the cheaper hybrid version, hoping to get a proper AC30 as soon as

[gosselinfan22]

You are the reason why I now have an Electric guitar :]

[ddsgolfedge]

@gosselinfan22 Wow, thanks! :)

[gosselinfan22]

@ddsgolfedge Just the truth! Keep on playing the way you do :D

[h4r4]

Killer guitar, want it badly!

[ddsgolfedge]

@h4r4 Thanks!

[ZarkDragon]

MAKE MORE VIDEOS!

[mEtAlMaNiAc787]

that was very well done :)

[ddsgolfedge]

@mEtAlMaNiAc787 Thanks!!

[DMB206]

"I will break you"

[ddsgolfedge]

@DMB206 Rocky IV - Yes.

[domeee11]

hey can i post a link on how to play the solo? thanks! /watch?v=mIdw9Ae6wXg

[JJUUZZAA]

I love that bass part

[ddsgolfedge]

@JJUUZZAA I do too. It's my favorite part of the song - why I included it in the cover :)  Cheers.

[MultiR33d]

seems a lil wrong in places, nice cover though, pretty much most of the tabs for this song suck so listen to it carefully ^^

[tottalyidiot]

awesome

[sgrundberg62]

Great cover. The acoustics in that room rock too.

[ddsgolfedge]

@sgrundberg62 Thanks! I had reverb turned up and the acoustics in the room added to it.

[aivaras686]

what mediator are you using? :D

[togwilson]

Ye just messin with ya man, i like am constepaited on mine lol, just learnt this one for my accoustic now all i need is the lyrics to go with it

[togwilson]

flipin heck!!! do ur smilling muscles not work or something

[ddsgolfedge]

@togwilson No doubt! For some reason I was concentrating on playing and not smiling! Watch my Notion cover video - Smilin' on that one :-)

[Pagra101]

Are you switching between Caleb (Rhythm) and Matt's(Lead) parts? and can you do some of the songs from the other albums. cheers

[chelasroy]

[Zelittlerocker]

Just Wonderful ! ♥

[theese101]

[CypherThanatos]

@theese101

He uses a overdrive pedal a Fulltone OCD its in the description dude... -.-

[mikyj139]

Awesome cover dude! would it be possible if you could show a video of the lead parts, I would greatly appreciate it or if you could tell me where i can get the tabs for the lead, thanks

[BitzRitz1988]

[TheMaxAltitude]

[jsdoddy]

NICEEEEE GIBSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[speedstacksguyscool]

can you Send me the Website of the tabs?

[wonderwall192]

which is the pedal you use for calebs parts?

[ddsgolfedge]

@wonderwall192 I just turned off the distortion for a cleaner sound - so Calebs part ("I've been runnin' around..") is just guitar, compressor, reverb and amp.

[FnRvAnOFF]

[CAteen69]

Nice cover, I was gonna upload my version soon but I need more practice.

Keep posting more music.

[zz5001zz]

i wish i could play just like u.. ure awesome..

[ddsgolfedge]

@zz5001zz Thanks! I really appreciate it. Just keep practicing over and over. Just like most other people learning guitar, this stuff didn't come naturally to me - but the more you keep playing, the easier it is to learn your fave songs. Just keep pushing, and you'll get it!

[jacktheguitarman1]

[TheHuntsmana]

yea mate, a video tutorial might be a bit easier.

[R0BERTMAY]

Guitar is sweet man nice job on the cover :o)

[TheHuntsmana]

cheers, that would be really great.

[TheHuntsmana]

hey mate, i subscribed and everything so is there any chance you could send me the tabs for lead parts and the palm muted section?

Nice Gibson by the way.

[ddsgolfedge]

@TheHuntsmana Thanks man - I love the ES-137. I'd be more than happy to send you a tab. Might take a bit to write one up tho. It might be better for me to post a close-up tutorial video...

[MuneebAtherMusic]
