Mike Einziger - Pendulous Threads Guitar Tutorial (Part 1 of 2)

[tbriscoeiii]

He's filming this from the Ampitheatre where I saw them live last Fall!

[JasmineHurr]

Aww, I just wanna pinch his little cheeks.

[inkQbus2009]

YESSS!!!!!!!!! I LOVE YOU !!!! !!!

[erislaton]

I got backstage passes in Cincinatti back in 09. Very nice and cool dude. When he told me the effect; I thought he just had a custom made one, but he said he got his at a guitar center a long time ago.

[mattybyrnelol]

would have loved them to have played this tonight. would have loved it more if they chose a better gig venue than Ally Pally. PLEH! <3

[lulkass]

ele tá usando uma camiseta escrito alguma coisa sobre " Garota de Ipanema" e "Tom Jobim"

[kaahibanez]

@lulkass nosssssssssa verdd

[zerotonico]

4:20 : )

[lespaulguy32]

What pedal is Mike using for distortion? I can't see...

[pedroyuriamnesiac]

He's using a Vinícius de Moares' "A Garota de Ipanema" T-shirt

Cool!

[dr05guitar]

wow cool... thanks Mike. Always have great tone..

[Thrillerboy]

I love this song. It's criminal that they don't play this more often live.

[AnAverageSkeptic]

@Thrillerboy They didn't play it a few weeks ago, but they did play it the first time I went to one of their concerts when they toured for Light Grenades. They get better and better.

[BambooShadowGER]

@Thrillerboy guess cause its a really hard song to sing!

[nevers4yforever]

Let me start off by saying, I'm not trolling, this is not malicious in anyway; A couple of the riffs remind me of Priceless. Am I the only one hearing that?

Gorgeous guitar btw, very unique.

[JRMtronica]

@nevers4yforever Huh??? Don't sound like trolling to me. I agree actually, it reminds me a lot of Priceless. I actually don't like that song. I guess you can call that trolling, haha.

Mend this careless thread, it's gone askew...

[nevers4yforever]

@JRMtronica I've actually had people jump at me for commenting about songs sounding similar before, so that was why I added a disclaimer. Hehe. I haven't really listen to If not now, when? at all, I can't really get into it for some reason, so I haven't really heard much of Pendulous Threads as a whole. I've only really heard what's in this video and it sounds very similar to me. Not good or bad, just an observation.

[JRMtronica]

@nevers4yforever Nonono my dear, Pendulous Threads is off of Light Grenades :S

[nevers4yforever]

@JRMtronica Oh that's right, that's one of the lost songs for me. It's the only song off that record that I never listen to.

[JRMtronica]

@nevers4yforever Gurl you are missin out. Pretty good song to end the album on. As for If Not Now, When?, it's VERY different from anything they've done so I get it. I, on the other hand, can't stop listening to it, nor can I get it out of my head.

[JRMtronica]

*well, it's the 2nd last song :S

[EdEmKay]

@nevers4yforever when he breaks it down like this, i hear it. i think because the band work and write together so well, the riffs are in such different context, so you barely notice it without thinking it. love both songs though, mike's such a genius

[rwebiscool]

iv'e seen mike perform multiple times, but i can't say i'd ever heard him say a word! i'm so glad he's not a total douche. another reason why incubus is the best band ever.

[ILLFEABEE]

@yamahauler125

It's a Whirlwind A/B Switcher. He uses it to switch between his clean and dirty amp.

[a7x993]

Pause at 4:20, mikey looks stoned ;D

[ILLFEABEE]

Seriously, so many guitar players really wanted this.

THANK YOU! Mike is the best.

[zerotonico]

PINCHE AMO TE AMO!

[SerxhoThe]

Appreciate all the vids Mike

[alexmusteatpie2]

omg i love this song. if they play it live when i see them next week i will die.

[brandokilla]

Mike you are a Musical Genius!! This guy is one of the main reason why I decided to pick and play guitar! Amazing!

[xxxMrAwesomexxx]

That Music Man guitar is the best guitar in the world. I got my first one about a year ago and it makes my other guitars seem so shitty.

[phillo12]

I love you so much it hurts.

[yamahauler125]

what is the pedal at 3:44??

[machtheghost]

@yamahauler125 Some kind of overdrive/distortion.

[databreaker]

amazing

[Thattramp94]

A gonkulator?!?!? Sounds epic.



[erislaton]

@Thattramp94 I had the pleasure of asking Mike what effect he used on the song "Glass" and he mentioned that it was the Gonkulator. Crazy effect

[Thattramp94]

@erislaton Really? That's awesome man, when?

[FoxyHeartsYou]

@MrHenqriqueRules I noticed that too! Makes me proud... GAROTA DE IPANEMA - VIVA BRASIL, VIVA INCUBUS
