Ibanez E-Gen Guitars - 'The Making of' with Herman Li

[iShawn95]

1:46 "Do I know my scales? ... *unheard part* of course I know my fucking scales, just listen to the bullshit I record."

[metallica5252]

6:12 he hits the guitar against the other..

[xXMusicxMadnessXx]

"It's got my own handgrip, so you can hit people with it if you want" Haha epic!

[yanava]

All that trouble into making a signature guitar for him. Who's going to buy that? It must be someone with hands just like his!

[bfmv11kyle]

i love his t-shirt

[Lupvs]

"I'm the only guy in the band who's not gay" ok x) nice

[AshtonMan2]

Gayest note ever 9:05 lmfao! :D

[PublicEnemyNo66]

whats the difference between scalloped frets and normal ones?

[abottomful]

@PublicEnemyNo66 scalloped is when the fret isnt flat, instead it is shaped like a U because the wood was shaved. look up yngwie malmsteens guitar he has scalloped frets and i think ritchie blackmore did it to one of his guitars

[pivetlord13]

so hes naturaly left handed? no wonder he can play so fast with his left fingers...

[metallica5252]

@pivetlord13 there are a lot of guitarists who are lefties that play guitar righty. I have a few friends who did that and it doesn't give you any advantage whatsoever. If anything it's worse and takes a longer time to get your picking hand up to par.

[7or6]

0:35 = 50 year old herman lee with down syndrom

[krzyfkn]

[2094matty]

i didnt see any difference between ZR and edge zero until i watched this

[lamaruka1]

why would it bother you if they were gay?  just enjoy their music and ignore their sexual preference.

[augustostark]

i'm the only guy in the band who's not gay

[bartek19952]

this is too funny..the ibanez guy is like you want to do What !!?

[Daavidforce]

Daavidforce I ♥ DRAGONFORCE! lml

[Jeremyvp]

0:17 signature ass series?

[Sonic2918vids]

Herman is a member of "DRAGONforce"

and he was born october 3rd 1976

(Chinese year of the dragon)

Coincidence?

[TimTeruSML]

@Sonic2918vids yes

[MrLeekzcat]

does he even play clean?

[MrLeekzcat]

he's asian and has a british accent. EPIC!

[linus0111]

@MrLeekzcat Herman li is epic, english name " herman" chinese last name "li" and he plays the best solo's ever !

[linus0111]

love his shirt, would hate if it was true O.O

[BigPWilly123]

@MrLeekzcat he was born in china but grew up in england.

[clem070605]

@MrLeekzcat say english, not british. scotland and wales as well as northern ireland are part of britain, and Herman Li sure as hell doesn't sound scottish, welsh or northern irish

[fugitivodoinferno]

@clem070605 You probably say "american" when refering to U.S citzens, so I don't see reasons to complain.

[clem070605]

@fugitivodoinferno Yes, but there are a few main regions of america which have their distinguished accents. The american accent is based on descent (i.e Italian-American, British-American, Latin-American) because there are so many different backgrounds in america. Britain is more based on region and places such as Liverpool and Manchester may be very close together, yet their accents sound very little alike. The welsh accent and Belfast accent sound nothing alike, but are both british accents.

[fugitivodoinferno]

@clem070605 A that's the moral of the story. America isn't a country, so Canadians, Argentinians, Mexicans, Brazilians, Peruvians, and a lot more are also Americans.

So in short, by using "Americans" to refer to U.S citizens you're basically doing what you're condemning.

Technically, a british accent is any accent from Britain, but not necessarily from England(what you're trying to point, correct?), but the same applies to Americans.

English isn't the primary language of America.

[KitRamsey1]

@MrLeekzcat haha just noticed that

[egees96]

@MrLeekzcat WHERE IS YOUR GOD NOW???

[GekeyVocals]

Does EVERYONE in DF have a kick ass shirt? (referring to Fred's "I Shit" shirt)

[Demyxthelegend]

[LightningBoltOfGlory]

[Zephirofficialvideos]

"I'm the only man in the band who's not gay"

Ha ha xD

[PhillipFry3000]

Ummm He's Left handed and plays a right handed guitar? this is awsome

[NNgmbh]

@PhillipFry3000 i´m a left hand to and play a right handed guitar (egen8), i think it´s normal :D

[Basstard22]

no wonder it took around 3 years for Ibanez too make the Egen8 Herman Li signature... there is alot in this mans mind for what he wants.. damn..

[xXMusicxMadnessXx]

"It's got my own handgrip, so you can hit people with it" xD!!!

[blackgulaman14]

[Krinnsupremancy]

[DarkLordNagash]

[DarkLordNagash]

I don't really like DragonForce or Herman Li, but I went here for the "making of" thing and it's nice. And damn that shirt is badass ^^

[shimantozyziky]

[xSwesnipEx]

[CptK96]

Cool couch.

[ameat13]

That shirt is wrong.

[locohellraiser]

ITS A BOLT ON??? Mannn that sucks :(

[7DeadlySinOfAnger]

@locohellraiser its probably for easy repair if the neck breaks you know?

[locohellraiser]

@7DeadlySinOfAnger i know that... but i play guitars for 5 years now.. and i have never broke a neck...

[7DeadlySinOfAnger]

@locohellraiser better safe then sorry dumbass. 

[7DeadlySinOfAnger]

@locohellraiser also, i have played guitar for about 2 to 3 years and buy bolt ons JUST because i would rather have an easy repair and not need it. then need it and not have it

[locohellraiser]

@7DeadlySinOfAnger yes but i make my own guitars... so i repair it myself... and a broken neck can easily be repaired in 1 day ;)

[7DeadlySinOfAnger]

@locohellraiser and a bolt on is an easy 15 minutes fix 30 if u have to get tools from lows or home depot

[Haddockxyz300]

@locohellraiser

Well Sams models are neck through and also Ibanez

[CheezeFox]

@locohellraiser Bolt-on necks are actually not bad if done right. And Ibanez is one of those companies that does it right.

[locohellraiser]

@CheezeFox not on my cheap ibanez.. but that is really one of the cheapest :P i love ibanez .. not a fan of their or any trems tho... too bad almost every good ibanez has a trem.. but yehh especialy with emg's you wont hear a difference with a bolt on or a neck through i use emgs...

[gibsonz0]

anyone know if it's a 1 piece?

[skuzemeewtfurdoin]

SICK

[Chanzilla86]

Awesome guitar and awesome guitarist!!!

I hate people who see comments from other videos that are top rated, then copy that and paste it on a different video in an attempt to get a lot of thumbs up. Be original...

[Heka41]

I cant understand a word herman says except 'guitar'

[PeanutButterGtr]

@Heka41 He's Brit-Asian. Worst combination EVER when it comes to word pronunciation and understandability.

[toadallyscuba]

@Heka41 I can clearly understand him. What language do you speak?

[GodOfNoice]

@toadallyscuba i'm from belgium and even i understand him fully :)

[mrdarkadia]

I want this fucking guitar ...

[5TheKingOfPop5]

That shirt is epic

[5TheKingOfPop5]

Herman Li fingered a girl once...

She died...

[nova495]

i like the grip on the guitar

can't fit my hand... too big!

[goom66]

i like herman li more when he's playing.

[squeaky2]

[legendsveil]

[squeaky2]

[BlackDragon2712]

[ottozing]

screw the guitar. i want to get the herman li signature shirt

[deathcore1239]

people always bitch about this guitar because its herman li's but none of them have played one. i have and as much as i dont really like dragon force, i was ready to run out with this guitar and never come back. the pickups were soooooo nice and then trem was retardedly stable (its an edge zero, what do you expect)

[Noksvalo]

im in love with that guitar, sadly is kinda expensive here in Argentina

[mojoefly]

i wonder how many egen's have been sold around the world ibanez made a good call. i aint no fan of dragon force but i love the guitar.

[yudithdragonforce]

WoOoOOoW

bEaUty GuItAr

I WanT iT !!!!!!

[liamzuid]

Lol Sam Totman is gay I saw a performance of them on youtube where he had a sticker saying I love men on his guitar.

[visualkeirockstar]

@liamzuid he has a girlfriend though

[MrMeAndMyVideos]

@liamzuid Sams a brilliant satirisist he does shit like that to piss people of :P

[liamzuid]

@MrMeAndMyVideos I don't really get pissed off by him.

In fact my mom knows alot of gay people, can't get a reason for hating them.

We all go to the toilet wheter it's a wooden shit thingy or a golden toilet with diamond thingys.

Sort of like sexuality, we all live wether you're straight or gay.

[MrMeAndMyVideos]

@liamzuid I never said he pisses me off I admire him for doing it

[liamzuid]

@MrMeAndMyVideos Don't really like the band though.

I heard their timing is now good live because of in ear monitors.

[MyStarwars11]

[TheIINgGIICaveman]

[reshad1]

@TheIINgGIICaveman no worries mate! it's at a shop at the moment getting the bridge pickup moved slightly towards the neck, for a gk3, in all honesty i thiink it was the strings it came with, so they're going to restring it for me and set it up accordingly, it should take a few days. As soon as it's back i'll let you know :)
