Eugene's trick bag - Calligopoulos - Full Version

[joejoejoe0121]

lol, It would've been absolutely hilarious if you would've done this solo naked XD Cleanest version I've found on Youtube, as well as the one the most lacking in clothes xP

[0JoshuaStromer0]

I wish you would have worn a sweat band....great job.

[BeyondTheReckoning]

Holy fuck that looks hard.

[sfgtmatt]

NICE SHORTS BUDDY!!

[governmentcification]

Incredible!

[cdmh1006]

Tees, underwear, a guitar solo, that's the rock spirit!

[thekaserxxx13]

very good version :) check my version (Y)

[bolajunky]

very good ! it´s a very dificult theme...

[oxdpt99]

Okay so playing in your underwear, we all do it, but most of us would probably not like to see others doing it. That being said great job, and obviously its about the music, you can tell by the way you approached the filming of the clip. I'd rather post the best clip I have done in my underwear, than a clip that is full of mess-ups fully clothed. Keep up the good work with your guitar playing and think ahead next time and put some pants on....lol!

[mgwilliams7]

best version, right speed ,.excellent dude!!!!

[ianschecter]

best version on youtube of eugene's trick bag....even playing the tele and fingerpicking it the way it was shown in the movie...although not actually played that way when recorded.

[southseacrew]

[raphaeljesussr2]

[alg1573]

I wish you well

[tylercheck00]

its the wrong way but you played it really good

[etrega]

is there a wrong way to play guitar?

[tylercheck00]

the sound and the notes are wrong and i know that there is more than one way to play the same note but there is a specific way to play this song. and dont get me wrong this guy can play more than i can cause im still learning it but he is playing this the wrong way

[bambam420425]

there are wrong ways to play songs

[TomasPaalman]

To add a little something to it; is there a wrong way to play music?..aparantly, according to all the internet geniusses, there is

[bambam420425]

[RufusDawkins]

[rockaDrock]

[tayah03]

Oh my god Freddie Mercury is alive and playing a tele! Nice job mate

[bergercurtis]

I was looking forward to seeing you try to hit the 31, B bend at the end of this on a tele without a tremolo.. Oh well. Nice job. ;)

[seko0408888]

I love Telecaster =D Incredible... 5/5

[jmdiltz]

nice shorts

[franambrosis]

you are incredible ;)

[rozhtdestvensky]

Your playing is as good as your fashion sense is bad. I really enjoyed it.

[calligop]

hehehe. Loved your comment, Ghennady!

[casperado666]

nice shorts. and btw you nailed it dude!

[basbas288]

Excellent.

[Philo68]

5 stars for an amazing rendition!

[bonelee]

[5150MassQwon]

Props....pretty good bud!!! On a telecaster no less.. awsome!!

[Gill1am]

Very well played! congrats

[EvilWeevilAnime]

I agree ... clearly the best one I've seen so far ... other than the ending it was perfect.

[MaglorOfNoldor]

Awesome. I really respect this... All these guys playing it with their fancy Ibanez's and Jacksons and failing- and you playing it on a goddamn telecaster almost perfectly. Unbelieveable.

I'm gonna use this as reference to learn it. Fantastic.

[theothecoolguy]

Ibanez still rules though ;)

Really great cover though, man...

[robertomarciano]

@MaglorOfNoldor i think this was impossible with a tele... wow. i have one im just start to practice this!

[mrnice24us]

would of been even better you would of put some dam cloths on. gezzz

[calligop]

If you want my body and you think I'm sexy

come on sugar let me know.

If you really need me just reach out and touch me

come on honey tell me so.

Tell me so, baby.

[spsigvee]

nice, you do need the violins for the last note though lol!

[DrivenMind]

Good shit man!!

You nailed it.

[jcamber]

Awesome dude. Must have spent hours practicing that...

[X09FHA]

Best Try I've Ever Seen.

[mozzy2410]

Best Ive seen...

[PichoAntonio]

Rockn' in boxers eh,

its that you secret to play so good?

[PichoAntonio]

its too much treble, dont you think?

[P5ych00]

its a telecaster... derrr lol

[blurpy123]

what arpeggios are these nicde cover btw

[bucketfan4life]

The first one is an A Minor, second is a E Major 7th, third is a A Major, fourth is a D Minor and the Fifth is a diminished cord. That's about all the help I can be.

[satyrcon86]

Very good ^^ However I think the best is from gottyboy

[SopmodJack1975]

Bravissimo ;) this is the best version on youtube ,keep it up mate you are truly talented

[natapitapeta]

EXCELEEEEEENTTTT!!!!!!!!

i love the way u play the arpegios...bravissimo

[kateisrox]

nice well done excact cover the sound you are getting out the telecaster is great i m learnin this song now but its hell hard to get the speed as fast as steve but u did it good job :)

[fvgotch]

Well done~ Well done~~

[mattguitar10]

Heey! You're greeaat!

What amp do you use? I think that i have the same Peavey...

Can you do a lesson of this song?

Thanks... Amazing cover

[Fishies125]

Very very nice and the tone is great.

[Ariiluvyou]

omgggggg vai speed

[rei2014]

yeah men that is rocking

[cyberwaffles]

great job!

[masterbassist93]

how ironic that the cleanist cover i played on a telecaster, the same kind of guitar this solo was played on in Crossroads.

[PDizzleFoRizzle]

Very well played!!

Bad choice in attire!

[VivekisV]

IMPRESSIVE! But I agree, wear pants next time

[pfelice157]

Dang man, that was really good! Please don't post videos of yourself in your underwear anymore. :)

[Jagerbabe65]

Hey can you make a vid of how to play it or send me tabs of how to play this song please i would like ta learn to play it! Nice job

[Killswitchfan001]

holy caholy! that was insane! best cover by far! nice nice nice!

[chickenONtheFloor999]

excellent. and nice short shorts btw lol

[HKKR112]

Flawless

[MarceloFromHell]

fuck you man!!!! you are so amazing!!!

goood good job, stay shredding!

[Fuzzyboy1976]

i realy love it ,is closest to the one in the movie you play with th e fingers and then the pick ,,any chance you can teach in a video post soon ?

[jeffmara]

tab?

[hungkok2007]

This is my favorite cover of Eugene's Trick Bag so far. Yeah there's sweep picking, but the rest of this performance really felt authentic and overall it was still nice, flujid and excisting. Your clothing kind of added to the honesty, heh.

[NateDawgSG7]

Check out my cover of this Mad Shred Fest!!!! Blindfolded YEW!!!!

[himikalka]

wow man that was gOOD

[taylormadeguy4609]

WOW!!!!!!!!!! Thats a hard piece and you pulled it off good job.

[josinho2]

the best i've heard, man!!

you're amazing!

[pablotweaks]

Fender's are fine to shed on, just ask Malmstein!

[Hendrixking14]

the best one ive heard so far.

[mrgreentom]

Well done! Thank you for posting.

[Tedericoe]

good cover...you also remind me of John Dore.lol

[flashfire276]

pretty cool. its not so easy shredding on telecasters. fenders arent a good choice to shred on because of their uncomfortable necks (like the v shape. wat the hell is that?). not to mention playing a song from the great steve vai. it would be great if you use an ibanez to give out the true potential of the music. but thats just a suggestion. well anyways, great cover.

[69cherrypie]

flashfire i hope you know vai didnt write or perform that...it was ry cooder, and calligop did a really good job on it. Anyway...u cant shred on a fender?, sense when, what happened to freakin malmsteen???

[Nikkor3]

Malmsteen's strato has nothing to do with standard stratos you can buy in a shop

[AcDc109]

Stevai composed that, not Ry COODER for gods sake.

[FFXGuitar]

Steve just transcribed it (hes good at transcribing, that was his job before he became a professional musician), it was originally a composition written by Paganini called "Paganini's 5th Caprice.

[HarvesterofSorrow777]

no its not paganinis 5th, but it has elements from the 5th and the rest of the 24 caprices that paganini wrote. go look at the sheet music for Paganinis Caprice No. 5, its not the same as Eugenes Trick Bag, but they are somewhat similar

[unclemeat281195]

Fender guitars are the best of the world!

Id***

[sirtomala]

best cover of this out there keep on rockin

[ignaciousJ]

you dont see someone shred on a telecaster everyday

[Transamstance]

Eugene uses a telecaster in the movie.

[sirtomala]

... hes not playing in the movie... karate kid has no idea how to play guitar, he's just a pretender...

[Transamstance]

I know, but the "actor" uses that guitar in the movie.

[azngreenteas]

did u star out playing on classical guitar?

[30165055]

Awesome!!!

[shabadaows]

That version is very near from the movie !! Great stuff dude !!!

I'm trying to do it but please can u describe me the 2 last chords u do ? Thanks man ! Check out my vids !

[metalhound69]

that is a very kick ass telecaster I have been trying to get my hands on one for a long time now but just can't afford one

[killeverything]

By far the best version I've seen. No one seems to be able to play this one through flawlessly. I do a good version myself, but not without it's quirks. Great playing.

[MrCrango]

sick playing but u could atleast of got dressed lol

[stupid200]

lol..the only thing he cant get is that A# at the end..aka that really high note..lol.

[SmeagolTheBeagle]

Verry nice ;) but next time try to out some more clothes on Lol, that was verry good :D keep it up :D

[Enterthechicken109]

did u get tabs for that?

cause i translated the music from paganini's version and its to hard to play at that speed.

do u no where i can get easier tabs?

[willashland]

damn, finger picked sweeps? even cooler than your baby blues

[edsonbeckermetal]

EXCELENT

[barberryman]

Those are some sexy short shorts! Nice wife beater too!

[paindeer]

Agreed, just went searching for this piece.

Was very dissapointed on what I came across.

I can see you have some experience such that you make the position look easy !

I can tell you really understand the music here too.

Sheesh, so many flashy guitars and poor guitarists. I bet you pass the time well !

Thanks for the reminder of what it means to understand and not just 'immitate' a piece.

[karmic8]

Still the best cover of this I've seen on youtube. Wicked.

[pornobanda]

suena muy bien, creo q es la mejor version q escuche, pero la parte del minuto 0:40 en adelante no se hace con pull off -.- es todo pua.

[cboxgo]

Excellent. You're one of the few people on Youtube using the right distortion and you're not ad-libing parts like many other guitarist are doing.

[Kiejzo]

Hey would anyone mind telling me those last chords at the end?

[flamingNL]

in the movie they do it on a violin; tho this sounds close

[Kiejzo]

Oh alright, thanks man.

[delgrapos]

No it's not possible

[Kiejzo]

Yes it is possible lol, I've done it before.

[brianenewton75]

Yes, it is. That's how those of us who don't have 24 fret guitars and floyd rose's play it.

[AdamDK]

Nice. And for the people talking about the huge bend at the end, it is possible to get a similar sound by picking whilst you "fret" next to the pickup (push the string like you would fret next to the pickup).

[mogie]

That was awesome, the best ive seen on youtube so far

[bouxlas]

Very good. O klassikos ellinaras!!! Me to sovrako kai ti fanela. But GOOD nevertheless.

[giffo88]

cazzone, da migliorare la parte iniziale

[delgrapos]

the last note has definately been doctored with an orchestra effect, my digitech pedal has a similar effect but it can't do round house kicks like karate kid

[delgrapos]

I don't think he played it better than karate kid though. Karate kids last note sounded like a full orchestra. That's the technique see, like 'Eagle Claw' daniel son

[eth0]

That last note can't be played on a single guitar, much less on a Telecaster. That chord was made by mixing different chords in the studio.

[Enterthechicken109]

it sounds like that in the movie but on the sound track its him just doing a big bend and hitting an open string with it. it doesnt sound like the orchestra but thats as close as u can get it with on guitar

[Lethalsilence]

Nice guitar but horrible sound

[delgrapos]

That will be the Peavey "post mix saturation" being too high!

Plus with the tele being an Encore copy....!

[Lethalsilence]

Oh i thought it was a real fender

[troublesome07]

is that how we really plays the intro? fingerstyle? i've been picking and w/a few hammer-ons here and there for years

[jongpilyun]

As far as I know, Vai plays the opening arpeggio sequence with pure alt picking.

[troublesome07]

Thanks, that's what i thought

[brianenewton75]

The entire song as performed by Vai has no sweep picking.

[jongpilyun]

That's why I said pure alt picking?

[brianenewton75]

You sure did. You specified "the opening arpeggio sequence". I expanded on your comment by adding that there is no sweep picking anywhere in the piece (although it isn't alternate picking all the way through).

[johanwilliam]

LUSH! i need to change my panties

[Tfaaon]

great job!! five stars ^^

[sexybignose]

You want to see the rest of this guys stuff hes a proper classical musician plays everything, piano, violin, the lot, not just a metal head in his bedroom like most of us!

[delgrapos]

Anybody can see he's miming!

Thats not even a real Telecaster it's an Encore copy.

It's been proved the original was 2 guitar tracks mixed together and Eddie Van Halen said he wrote it but he pinched it off that guitar player out of Starship.

I know cos my mates dad knew him from down the club, he used to get the cheap baccy.

[sexybignose]

if hes miming whats he miming too,i have never seen a version as fast and clear as this, think hes got real talent who gives a shit if its not a real telecaster doesnt make you a better guitar player!!!!!!!

[lifeofsobriety]

Hes not miming....

[india29536]

Where can I get the tab for somethin like that..?

[delgrapos]

Plus he got the note wrong at the end it should go high.

I could have done it but my thumb locks all the time with gout.

[pigmonster]

I CAME.
