Fade to Black - Metallica Guitar Cover (End section + Solo)

[spikerjedi]

I see what you mean by it being out of tune I get that 2 :)

the same with all the other songs on the album

Yeah, unfortunately I only realised AFTER recording this video that Metallica were actually tuned to a slightly different pitch than 100% correct E Standard, so that's why playing along to this album sounds a little out of tune =)

@SiLeNTzWoot so thats why when i was trying to re-cover my cover of For Whom the Bell Tolls i thought i was out of tune. :/

hey man

nice cover :D

I have the same multieffect pedal

what kind of presets are u using??

[SiLeNTzWoot]

Hi mate, thanks very much =)

For the rhythm, I used the "Smooth" preset, but without reverb and with more gain, amongst changes to the EQ. For the lead, again it's "Smooth", but with reverb and delay this time!

It could be strings cause this has happened to me before I feel like its out of tune but when I done up my guitar it was just the strings that where stuffing it up.

hey, good cover :D , hey i have the same digitech, which preset r u using?

btw, i think u r a little bit out of tune xD

[SiLeNTzWoot]

Heya, on my RP350 the preset is one I made, The setting is basically a modification of Smooth, but so that it has no reverb, more gain, scooped EQ and a few other changes.

Yeah it turns out that I was in tune to the standard tuning (my A was 440Hz) but apparently the piano Metallica used to tune their guitars to on the early records was out of tune, lol, so their A was around 450Hz, making it sound out of tune when you play along. I'll redo this with me tuned to their A and see how it sounds :P
