  • @MaralizeLegawana

    I agree man.

  • Can your prs do dive bombs and pull the trem up high?? I don't mean fast rapid metal stuff but kindof like bad horsie.

  • the fact that there are "dislikes" for this cover proves how unimportant, random these "votes" are.

    beyond comparison, by far the best cover of "Sisters" I have ever heard. Kudos man. You have earned it. Well done.

  • very well done!  i have listened to this song for the last 20 years, and you do a GREAT job covering it!

  • This is really great, you've got perfect tone and everything, and it seems as if you really understand the piece.

  • Nice job mate, well played!!

  • Hey, do you have tabs for this?! I've been trying to find a full set of tabs for this song for FOREVER!!! And with this being the most AMAZING cover I've seen period *other than vai himself of course* I'd like to learn how to play more than what I already have down (veeery beginning) of this beautiful song!

  • @JPGuitarGuyFutrell I have the tabs for this for ages.. want a PDF? contact me :-)

  • @webmastergarymoorenl YES PLEASE!!! email is riofootball_777@yahoo.com XD THANK YOU MUCH!

  • @webmastergarymoorenl Hey, I've been looking for decent tabs for this for ages! I'd really appreciate it if you were able to give me a copy. Cheers.

  • Wow, just wow. Nuff said.

  • perfectly played !!! perfectly... one of the most beautiful songs of the world... the octave part is just a piece of art... ver very well played ... tone, feeling, teknik

  • Fantastic, liked guitar tone 2

  • i love you.

  • The best clean tone Ive never heard before...

  • @tiothe138 its called a direct line recording. no mic noise involved. audio and video were maybe a millisecond out of sync, so what. why must people always look for the negative. GOSH!

  • Wow @ the tone, jizz in my pants much?

  • Nice interpretation!.. Uncle Vai must have seen it..

  • Comment removed

  • This is one of my favourite Vai songs. You did a really good job.  :)

  • Nice! I have several S.V. backing tracks, but the tone of your PRS on this is near perfect.... BRAVO!

  • I love how much you are just enjoying yourself playing this awesome piece of music! Makes it sound so good!

  • Tried learning this song but gave up for now... :P It's actually really hard to get it to sound clean, so good job mate! :)

  • where did you get the backtrack?

  • muy bien friends coll

  • This is just great!

  • this is a pretty old video but still the best

  • Beautiful. I always thought alot of what he did in this song was studio work. Did you use an eventide harmonizer, or is some of that just in your background track? Either way you nailed it. Steve would be proud.

  • Nice work! Tough song to get the nuances, A pleasure to hear.

  • one of the reasons i love PRS. guitar sounds amazing. great job my dude. i own a custom 22 myself. so from one owner to another, kudos.

  • nicely done

  • Very welll man!!!!! your guitar sounds very simillar to jems model!!!

  • very good job

  • nice work great song

  • Dude....rather amazing, my friend. Im blown away. Not just the technique but your mad attention to the tone of the original guitar. Thats not even a Floyd Rose trem and alot of the "snap" with Steves guitar in clean mode comes from that.

    You somehow compensated with that Roland. Are you using some pickup effects of somesort, like ya know how some have single coil settings. Bravo man. You epically captured the snap of the tone and precision of the song. Epic win dude.

  • 1:50 little mistake , nice facial expression...! ^^

  • Excellent cover man !!! Can you please tell me your equipment (settings) for guitar rig 3 or 4

  • nice guitar nick...what model is ? any effect pedal ? what amp ?

  • nice guitar tone nick ...what year is your prs ? pickups ? its a custom 22 or 24 ?

  • Hello, It's a PRS Custom 24. Year I think is 2005. Pickups are PRS HFS humbuckers. Amp is a Roland VGA-5. All effects from the VGA-5.

  • good playing but you are slightly out of tune.

  • don't talk shite mate, that was fucking amazing

  • Pro skillz man!

  • it was this song that inspired me to play guitar 18 years ago. You played it spot on beautifully.

  • I gotta back this guy up here, lol. I was there 18 years ago and been playin since. This is a mad cover of this tune and its still my favorite Vai tune. I know half the sound but not with near the detail. A joy to watch...

  • You are not good in the head bro. This is insane!

    Get your head checked, this is fkin incredible, an exact cover of the song. Here and there u had a mistake, maybe Vai has the same during concert.

    INSANE!

  • Awesome dude, pure Vai bliss.

  • Kick ass bro! That is a great cover. That song is one of his best. Just so melodic. Thanks for sharing it bro! Peace!

  • wow, u did that really well man. sounds just like steve! great sound too, beautiful guitar and harmonics were amazing! 5/5

  • can i have the tabs please? i want to learn the song and i can't find them. thanks!

  • r u wearing skirts ?

  • Nice playing and nice guitar but not very accurate at all, especially the harmonic parts.

  • bravissimo.

  • that looks hard as fuck

  • very great sound

  • very good man!!!

    respect

  • most of the playing isnt accurate but what ever u played it sounded nice

  • very clean, well done. jealous

  • Fantabulous!

  • Excellent....the section that starts at 1:20 needs to be played louder and with a little bit more enthusiam but otherwise overall off the hook

  • hey man i have a question.. do you read music or play by ear and just have a really good feel of the guitar?? i'm only 17 an i love playing i just dont really want to learn to read music

  • Learn to read music. It is is extremely useful in the long run.

  • Learning to read music is useful, but in terms of using music for a guitar is somewhat impractical, as there will be many different positions to play one note, and usually a run will need to be played in a certain position otherwise it will be ridiculously difficult :P But reading music is useful, but I doubt how effective it is for a guitar.

  • It's useful no matter what instrument you play. Even a drummer should be able to read music.

  • I am not saying it's not useful, I mean I play piano and saxophone too, and it's rather important for those 2. But drums really? I have never heard of that. It's a useful skill, but what I am getting is tab is better for guitar :P what does the drummer use is music reading ability for? just out of interest, all the drummers I know can not read music and are all pretty damn good :P

  • Drummers need to be able to read rhythms at least. Drummers also use staff notation, though different from most instruments, it is still written music to be read. I think a lot of rock and metal drummers can get away without being able to read music, but learning a song on drums without hearing someone else play it first would be pretty tough without the ability to read music.

  • This is true, but I thought you were talking about like more standard music, cause drum music and normal music are very different. But yeah I suppose drummers do have their own music :P

  • That's badass! I've always wanted to learn to play this song.

  • its not fake look at his other videos.

  • cool

  • I've worked this song out. It took me two months to memorise the notes then a further two months to make it sound like an off the cuff improvisation. You can't struggle when you play this cos it will show. The hardest thing about this song is the feel. Nice playing just the same

  • great tone man! I prefer your tone to Steves. 99% of the song note for note perfect - just the timing on the harmonics after the intro at 0:47should have been earlier - have another listen to the original if you can be bothered :)

  • its true i dont know why they are putting u down?

  • where did you get the misic from

  • best Sisters ive heard on youtube so far

  • dude that was fucking awesome

  • Is it acoustic simulator??

  • its dave days in the future

  • I just searched "dave days" and he can't play for shit. Now, he does look like him- that's probably what you meant.

  • wich amp do you use ? please

  • very well cover, i like it!

  • you really should tab this.. there are no good tabs on the internet for this song

  • Comment removed

  • this guy is a real good actor the quality of the sound is to clean sounds just like L.P nice try

  • wtf are u on about, this guy is clearly playing it, if u think he isnt, then u are rather stupid! and the original sounds nothing like this in terms of tone etc...

  • I agree, your an idiot

  • Wonderful cover !

  • Tricky song. Good job, and keep working on it =)

  • WOW, that's awesome......

  • Ive seen alot of covers of this song on Youtube but yours is by far the best. You have some skills.

  • I wish I had your skills and that beautiful sounding PRS

  • perfect. *is speechless*

  • awsome bro,,keep up the great work 10/10

  • awesome!! very very 1 million times, good! hehehe..!!

  • Wow, great job dude! I love this Vai song and you did a great job.  I play guitar and I know this song isn't easy to play. Keep it up!

  • I don't comment much on anything but I felt I had to on this occasion. I am a guitarist myself. Perfect my friend.

  • superb

  • This is hands-down my favorite Vai instrumental, and you nailed it. Great work.

  • sounds nice. I like it.

  • you rock

  • Brillant! Sounds Amazing! Excellent recording. Keep up the good work.

  • Very Good job ! Sound so nice ! Keep on rocking !

  • Your tone is spot on.

  • well great job and how you did get it does not matter we all have to learn it form somewere . again great job i love the sound aswell  keep it up :)

    Greets

  • One of the best clean tones I've ever heard!!! AMAZING!!!

  • i like it dude. that guitar looks and sounds great. good work. steve vai would be proud of you.

  • I know this is most likely not fake but it just kinda looks like it, like its to good to be true.

  • One of my all time favorites, you play it great! Nice job :D

  • Lovely! :)

  • go have your eyes checked out...

  • You have delay between your mouth and your brain....

  • HAHA xD

  • not a fake. I am such a vai fan I can tell. This is probably the best video of sisters they have on youtube. nice work.

  • Omg! are you jealous or what?

    1. He recorded the sound directly, so there is no background noise

    2. Its a backing track, totally normal.

    He is a great guitarrist, the sound is amazing...

    How much I hate this kind of comments...!

  • If it was fake he couldn't make as many mistakes.

  • if this is fake he did a good job to mime every note exactly right i used this video to help learn how to play this song

  • im jealous but well that was great, and the real version is 7 minute long who would lie and do half a song...its unsettling how little fowksey knows about the tone of music

  • The real version is 4:07 minute long. Not 7 as you said.

  • I fucking hate noobs!

  • me too, obviously not a fake.

  • you are so fucking stupid, he obviously recorded the vid and recorded his guitar seperatly using a backing track and then mixed it with some program for better quality you stupid fucker

  • your an idiot.

  • Its not fake, Total Guitar magazine transcribed this song into their magazine a while ago, so he could of got the backing track from there

  • Too right mate! I have a backing track for this that I got with a tab book about 4 years ago. Some people just like to talk out of their arse! :)

  • woa! amazing!

  • Perfect tone

  • bad play back.....it seems it's not you playing

  • woo nice sound

  • how do you get that tome? even with a PRS? I love prs guitars. also, what kind of rig do you have? good job!!!

  • He's fingerpicking and i believe he has an eventide , and a good amp...Probably a fender , i guess, as the sound is incredibly bright and crunchy.

  • AMAZING TONE! PLEASE! tell me what effects you are using!

  • i h8ted vai, but yu converted me, thanx man

  • If i dont look at the video, i cant tell its not Steve Vai playing. Your tone is awesome. You should do more Vai covers man, your the best in tone and feel i have seen playing vai on here

  • gorgeous Vai song, Im gonna learn it,

  • dead on man, sounds just like real thing!!

  • Man you rox, keep it rockin :O

    5/5 stars for me for this godly version :D

  • wow really good nice guitarsound

  • this is the ultimate tab song to learn
