"The Dark Eternal Night" Solo Cover

[Shadow2059]

is not perfect, but who does?? you play very well man... nice job haha :D

[himalchulicup]

that's what i call frets on fire

[MrLukeySan]

Damn that fingering at the end is tough!

[deadblood8]

Mierda!

Arrechísimo



[jcshayden1]

How difficult would you say this solo is, rzr77? It looks pretty hard, but not as bad as I though it would be, just very fast. Great job by the way, but you need something to help pick up the tapping, everything else is awesome.

[rzr77]

@jcshayden1 It was quite a challenge. The speed is, of course, the toughest part, as well as the fingerings for the stretched run near the end. Thanks for the comment.

[IRIxFailedDig]

THIS IS AWESOME :D



[Tomaxzo]

Amazing, great feeling you played it with :D

[rzr77]

@ShowtimePanda: Thanks, Man. You nailed it with the emotions I was feeling when playing that.

[Fluffie14]

[Fluffie14]

Its really good but no offense your tone is kinda weak

[rzr77]

No offense, but my recording equipment is a HandyCam with a 1/2 inch microphone.

[weaselguitar45]

@Fluffie14 weak tone i think it sounds good

[Longcatcrusade]

haha intense face at the end

[jolli93]

OMG OMG How did u do that :O

seriously how long have u played the guitar :D ???

[rzr77]

Thanks so much, Man! I appreciate the comments on my other vids, too. I'm flattered. To answer your question here, I've played for 17 years. But I'm no pro, I just do it for fun. Also, the solos to "This Dying Soul" are something I've always wanted to learn, but I don't know if I have it in me! LOL!

[jolli93]

im pretty sure that you could learn this dying soul solo pretty easy =D

[flipedup]

@rzr77 learn them... im sure u can play them awesomely!!!!!!

[cmajor28]

[rzr77]

Thanks, Man! And I appreciate the comment on my "Bark" cover as well!

[agusique]

Holy shit!

[bigchuk322]

Do you have your own band or anything? Because you can shred bro.

[rzr77]

No, Man. I don't. Thanks for the comment on this and my "Jordan" cover, though. It means the world to me.

[ogle777]

HOLY SHIT!

[ze8520]

* great performance

[ze8520]

FUCK =O

you rock man =DD..freat performance

congratulations =D

[rzr77]

Thanks, Dude. Very cool of you!

[AeroPR]

awesome man

[project8sk8er]

Holy Hell, dude............. like all your other covers, amazing

after the solo part you looked exhausted,lol.

[hking007]

F@ck ... that was simply...Amazing...

[andrespcp]

WoW !! very nice work. this solo is amazing and you played feeling it. I'm a Petrucci's fan and I'm from Colombia South America. I would like to Know which pickups are you using in this?? congrats !!

[rzr77]

Thank you, andrespcp. To answer your question, the pickups in this guitar are WCR (Wagner) Darkbursts.

[luchox16]

Oh and btw! where did you happen to find a tab that accurate? i think i read somewhere in one of your videos that said you used the official tab book for them or something like that.... they come with the solos as well huh?

[luchox16]

Holy shit man!! thats like a fucking insane solo and you totally nailed it! its almost perfect but we all know that Petrucci is... God... XD how much time did you had to practice? and also are you using some sort of wah effect? keep it up bud!

[rzr77]

Thank you. That solo is a tough one, and it took me a while to learn it and get it up to speed. I usually work on a couple things at a time, and that one took a couple months!

And yes, at the beginning of the solo I used a wah (Crybaby from Hell). I love using the wah to contour solos. . .it's a great expressive pedal. Thanks for the comment, and take care.

[GuitarnScythes]

I am bowing down! Great job, keep rocking!

[rzr77]

Thanks a lot!  I'll try!

[SVMrBlueSky]

co za szajs ;d

[rzr77]

????

[Pozzaa90]

U'r da BOSS!

[rzr77]

Much appreciated, Man. Thanks!

[explodingcrack435]

O.O dude i bet Petrucci is proud :)

[rzr77]

Thank you, good Sir! Haha. I hope so. That dude is my favorite guitarist!

[killswitch8008]

man u right up there with petrucci

[FelepeQQ]

Shortly saying... I think you are genius :)

[rzr77]

Haha. Thanks, Man. But I'm no genius. . .Petrucci is!

[rzr77]

Alright, I'm going to take this opportunity to answer a general question on the John Petrucci forum: the most versatile guitar is ANY MCNAUGHT GUITAR.

Why am I posting a response here? Well, because I've registered for the John Petrucci website forum 3 or 4 times in the last year and a half, and I've never been granted access to post. Bitter? Maybe a little, considering he's my favorite guitarist of all time and I could talk about his playing all day! :-P

[albundie3]

kind of shloppy i mean i know i could never do it in a million years you beat me there

[rzr77]

Well, do you mean "shloppy" or "SCHLOPPY?"

;-P

[yba123]

you are amazing.

and you have a great taste in music too.

[rzr77]

Thank you! Yeah, Dream Theater pretty much rock all that rocks.

[FelepeQQ]

My God.! You're Amazing.! Man.! Maybe you're the clone of Petrucci ;) Very Very Impressive!!!!

[rzr77]

Hey Bud, thank you very much.  Petrucci is my favorite, and I'm glad I could do him a little justice with this clip. Peace.

[theusednetwork]

waaaa greatest cover of solo! =3

[rzr77]

I'm flattered, Man. 'Preesh.

[motsjo]

You are indeed very talented. Bravo!

[rzr77]

Thanks, Man. Very cool of you.

[titsmcgee852]

That was great, you just need a better tone for it

[rzr77]

Haha! Good one!

[titsmcgee852]

No, your tone is quite hollow and bassless. I'm not bagging your job, just the tone :]

[kmibl00d]

INCREDIBLE!!!!

you are amazing

really god job!!!

oohh my god...to my favourites...and 5/5

[rzr77]

Hey there!  Thank you so much. . .I'm very grateful.

[IbanezRGrocks]

[rzr77]

Thank you!!!

[NoLimit24]

Oh my Jesus of Nazareth... that was fuckin' insane.

[rzr77]

Thanks for the comment. . .glad you liked it, Man.

[fxcknaruto]

Orgasmic. You rock!

[rzr77]

Thanks, Dude.  Now, who's Naruto???

[fxcknaruto]

Something really annoying that my ex was really into.

But yeah, keep shredding!

[rzr77]

Haha. I hear ya, Man. Take care.

[felipescalador12]

Thanks, Man!

[CBmetalguitar]

u nailed it perfectly, i envy u. how did u get the tabs?

[maff77]

safe man! is that a six or seven stringer youre using there?

[rzr77]

Thanks! This McNaught is a six-stringer. Luckily (and mercifully ;-P), John didn't play all seven strings on the solo.

[phillipibanez]

10/10

[rzr77]

Thanks, Man.

[Sternman318]

Wow, listening to the guitar clearly over the rest of it really highlights DT's odd time-signatures. Just feels so off sometimes( but your playing it right)

Great cover!

[rzr77]

That's one thing I love about Dream Theater. . .the key changes and strange time signatures. That's one of the reasons they're my favorite band! Thanks for the comment, Man.

[djworldpimpin]

Wow man, fuckin gnarley cover dude. That sounded really good.

[rzr77]

Why, thank you very much! That one's a bear for sure.

[someoneunow1]
