[manuel91893]

[hariz827]

[trickybasket]

did you ever consider doing a cover on an electric guitar? because you qould kick asses :D

[WonkyFonk]

@trickybasket Thanks! yeah I have an electric version on my channel

[eeshkj]

cool!!!!!hey man..wat r the chances of a boy having learned guitar for 3 months only,to play this song properly??

[WonkyFonk]

@eeshkj Thanks! It depends on how comfortable you are on the guitar really. It might be worth starting to play along with just the chords ie mostly follow the bass line, so you dont frustrate yourself with the melody. With the melodies, start slow, get the notes clean and smooth, maybe with a metronome. and over time build up the tempo. Make sure your strumming hand has good control over the muting -so you dont have other strings ringing out etc. More you practice, the easier it gets. Good luck!

[eeshkj]

@WonkyFonk thnx!!!i will practice more to become like u :)

[WonkyFonk]

@eeshkj Well im practicing to become more like Dave and Adrian ;)

[WonkyFonk]

@eeshkj and I make alot of mistakes, so don't focus on my technique too much! When you get Hallowed figured out its one of the funnest tracks to play in the world. Be patient, cause its worth it!

[eeshkj]

@WonkyFonk yep man!!i heard the solo of master of puppets as well frm metallica...it was cool as well...hey do u hav a facebook account?????i could get more of these guitar tips frm u easily :)

[WonkyFonk]

@eeshkj Sorry, I don't use facebook

[eeshkj]

@WonkyFonk no prob..any other social networking site then??

[WonkyFonk]

@eeshkj None im afraid...im living in the stoneage still!

[WonkyFonk]

@gapeto1989 Thanks for watching

[RMaiden95]

Great Job Man!!! Up the Irons!!...in the main riff, you use pull of and hamer on, or play each note? (sorry, my English is bad XD)

[WonkyFonk]

@RMaiden95 Cheers! I play each note...I think that's the way the maiden boys play it aswell, well I hope they do!

[groverkanav]

look at his fingers go..!!!!

[WonkyFonk]

@groverkanav :)

[MBloodline6]

Wow, you 're too goddamn good.

[WonkyFonk]

@MBloodline6 Thanks, but check out /user/ThomasZwijsen2007 for someone way better

[BankaiJutsu77]

@WonkyFonk Yeah, thanks. I'll keep practicing to get the speed and the pull offs right.

[bhatakshayk]

from where did ya learn this.. i mean from which site did ya get this tab?.. Ultimate gutiar.com?

[WonkyFonk]

@bhatakshayk I just watched the live videos, and listened to the song alot! I figured it out from there. I didn't get it quite right in this version. Have learnt to play it better since

[BankaiJutsu77]

Your cover is awesome !! :D I'm trying to learn this song but the only part i have a little trouble playing is the riff that starts at 1:24 to 1:41, I'm 13 my hands are not that big; I have trouble stretching my hand 4 frets xP

[WonkyFonk]

@BankaiJutsu77 Thanks! Can you play the notes but are just having trouble with the stretching? Practice is the key. Just give it time and your fingers will stretch!

[ramonemaiden]

@WonkyFonk Great can you tell me from where did you get the tabs PLease!

[WonkyFonk]

@ramonemaiden As I said to bhatakshayk, I don't have any tabs im afraid. Picked it up from watching vids etc. Didnt get it quite right in this vid either. Sorry

[SuperAndresito10]

beautifulll!!!

[1IronMaiden123]

awesome cover, dude :D up the irons! \m

[TomoeMichieru]

I'm surprised your strings lasted through the song they way you were rocking it:P

[WonkyFonk]

@TomoeMichieru hehe, its tough on the fingers too! Great guitars those Epiphones.

[Brogers28x]

Man I didn't think an acoustic version would sound this good.

[WonkyFonk]

@Brogers28x Cheers, most of it is due to the guitar!

[Brogers28x]

@WonkyFonk Well you did a great job :D

[KaltesWasser11]

is it a Takamine?

[WonkyFonk]

@KaltesWasser11 Epiphone

[pedrorox22]

anyone who can play like that the guitar... MUST BE A MONSTER PLAYING THE ELETRIC ONE!!!

[WonkyFonk]

@pedrorox22 hehe thanks, I have a couple of electric versions up too

[Jon7Lane]

Fantastic playing...I think your middle finger is starting to bend backwards!

[WonkyFonk]

@Jon7Lane Feels like it sometimes, severe cramp towards the end!

[MatiasAlvarenga1]

Good ! :D

[Mylosh35]

Wow! Big like! This sounds great. Cheers!

[WonkyFonk]

@Mylosh35 Thanks!

[Mylosh35]

@WonkyFonk You're most welcome. You have such fine taste for music, and also posses a precious talent for playing that music. Just keep on rocking! Cheers!

[sf987photo]

Why can't I hear the guitar? :/ *shrugs* oh well, I guess it's a fa... OH, IT SOUNDS JUST LIKE IT O_O

[WonkyFonk]

@sf987photo hehe thanks!

[JonesyPHD]

72 people are still working on their "smoke on the water" vids....EPIC cover bro!

[WonkyFonk]

@JonesyPHD ;) SOTW is a classic tune though!

[malfarius]

Good \m/

[DianaLovesTacos]

for some strange reason i would love you to pop out of the no where and play this exact song while im ordering a $5 footlong at subway.

umm sorry if this is a bit weird.

[123superbad123]

@DianaLovesTacos its quite understandable

[WonkyFonk]

@DianaLovesTacos hehe, not sure how to respond to that!

[brooseable]

@WonkyFonk :D

[MBloodline6]

[TheRach611]

wow. .. .probs the best cover i ever heard fer this song. amazing man. :)

[WonkyFonk]

@TheRach611 Thanks, check out theacousticbassist too, Steve Harris 2!

[chichideoz]

awesome

[ETS566]

great now i got to look for RazielFallenAngel's comment T.T

[TheTeamcallofduty1]

this remined me how bad i suck =)

[WonkyFonk]

@TheTeamcallofduty1 I wasn't trying to do that!

[TheTeamcallofduty1]

@WonkyFonk i kno but im not that good tthe only song i can fully play is TNT by AC/DC and the rest are just intros

[WonkyFonk]

@TheTeamcallofduty1 That's a start. You have to start somewhere. I spent years just trying to play the intro to Enter Sandman. Time and patience are the key, cause when you invest in it it becomes the most rewarding feeling in the world! Keep it up, and some day il be commenting on your vids. Oh and watch loads of live stuff, you can pick up alot from what you see on stage

[TheTeamcallofduty1]

@WonkyFonk i call play the intro to enter sandman.... it sounds ok

[AmadeusMetalParkour]

@TheTeamcallofduty1 Don't be like that. Keep pushing yourself untill you get the skills you like. With me and my bass it was like that. As it is for everyone who wishes to be good at something.

[TheTeamcallofduty1]

@AmadeusMetalParkour thx i might get a electric soon cuz my acoustic is getting boring...

[WonkyFonk]

@TheTeamcallofduty1 Make sure you keep the acoustic too. Its easier than plugging in the electric sometimes ;)

[WonkyFonk]

@AmadeusMetalParkour Damn right!

[samonlyguapas]

mano, Voce é muito bom ;)

[Hellyeahbogotarockci]

fuck i make best of you troll

[samyhear]

aweome awesome,,,,i wish my fingers could move as fast as yours!!!!

[TheRicky2261]

seriously great job...!! sounds great..

[WonkyFonk]

@TheRicky2261 Thanks

[RazielFallenAngel]

Shouldn't it be by the? instead of be thy?

[WonkyFonk]

@RazielFallenAngel nope

[SuperShazbott]

@RazielFallenAngel

its Thy babe

always has

always will

[SalandFindles]

No, HAHAHA. Haven't you ever seen the title to this song or haven't you ever seen old style text from ancient times?

[WILLtTHOMPSON2906]

sorry but this is kinda of annoying how this isnt an acoustic version, its just the regular version on an acoustic guitar. i cant play classical/acoustic but i can do that, Jcronk is the guy that actually does a very good acoustic arrangement of this

[WonkyFonk]

@WILLtTHOMPSON2906 Sorry I annoyed you. Yes it is the regular version, and it was posted 4 years ago when there weren't many ppl posting iron maiden songs on acoustic guitar. Its also not a competition, and im glad you can do it aswell. Feel free to use the dislike button, though im guessing you have already

[Nigganechi]

@WonkyFonk Don't listen to that fag. He's obviously a goof. This is far out man, I can dig it!

[WonkyFonk]

@Nigganechi Thanks!

[rvi632]

[PierreGallo83]

@hzqSEVENFOLD6661

[marcoholic22]

where was the live version of the song? nice mate i couldn't keep up with you haha props

[WonkyFonk]

@marcoholic22 I think its the Death on The Road version. Probably one of the reasons why this vid is banned in Germany! Cheers, its gotta be one of my favorite all time riffs!

[Djsukyy]

man what guitar do you use?

[WonkyFonk]

@Djsukyy Epiphone in this vid. Great guitar!

[nisoroner]

ah I had wanted to play that song with acoustic guitar and is one of my favorite songs but seeing the video I was surprised this song is very difficult for me you played the song very good friend Greetings

[WonkyFonk]

@nisoroner Thanks, if you start playing it at a slower tempo and build it up over time it might help

[ThrashManiac01]

Dude that was sooo epic.

[thefabian1]

Disculpa tienes la Tablatura de esa cancion porfa la necesito

[jbg256]

God work man....

[KtWizard1]

magistral!!!!!!!!!!

[elok92]

You should`t separate fingers like that when you playing scales or riffs... btw good work

[WonkyFonk]

@elok92 thanks for the advice, but im kind of set in my ways at this stage ;)

[WonkyFonk]

@elok92 I agree with you though...bad habit of mine

[Misteltein]

Honestly, you should go on tour!!!!!!

[WonkyFonk]

@Misteltein That's still the dream I have while sitting at my desk job ;)

[Iron666Maiden666F]

Iron Maiden is my religion... this cover is awesome, you are great! Wish I could play as well as you can!

Keep on rockin'!

[warmaker911]

67 people were hung at the gallows pole

[knightfromoutzide]

skills! 

[Feint10]

Man, you really need to do more acoustic covers of Maiden. I FUCKING love this video, probably the 500th time I'm watching this lol. You're really damn good!

[WonkyFonk]

@Feint10 Cheers!

[rustyman351]

Yeah you may be good at guitar, but it won't get you famous like guitar hero will. Sorry man keep trying. LOL

[WonkyFonk]

@rustyman351 haha, yeah I know. I could try an acoustic guitar hero track ;)

[TheWierdbeard]

Haha i love how you used a live version for this song so it sounds like people are cheering for you when u start playing! :D however, this is one of the best covers i've seen. You, my friend, are freaking brilliant! Respect. :)

[WonkyFonk]

@TheWierdbeard Thanks

[makisiron]
