Avenged Sevenfold - So Far Away (COVER W/ ACOUSTIC, 12 STRING, AND SOLOS)

[CHRISLIKESAIRSOFT]

GREAT!!

[EddieUchiha7]

very nice bro, one question what cam your use for rec? and you recording with interfaze?

[KylieEm]

dude u rock!! :)

[M4rc05P]

a lots of mistakes man...

=/

[bobcretia]

woow funtastic!!!

[Jackhayes123]

what amp settings do you use for the electric guitar?

[xXxjust4lulzxXx]

You can see this guy is still a nube to guitar, he dosent do a G chord with his little and his ring finger, just his ring finger and on a 12 string that will really make a sound difference and not in a good way either. Good cover though except that minor detail

[Guitarista96]

sik 12 string but you made it sound like shit...



[718whisper]

u play the solo with no emotion makes it sound crappy

[MultiLoco52]

pero estuvo impactante el videoo

[MultiLoco52]

haha pendejo se equivoko en el minuto 2:24 hiso un do en ves de un re mayor hahaha idiota

[k4idaNN]

u are not singign because u have the EXCATLY voice of M.Shadows :S

[Ryfasol]

@k4idaNN Nowhere did he say he was.

[TheKitsuneTan1]

yeah good cover but do the finger picking part and ill be amazed i give u a 90%

[Sento162]

where did you go for the elcetric parts(not the solos)

[NadiaWep]

damn!!!!hell nice...

[davidalexbelle]

Damn bro that was sick, much props for the tunes

[afnan789]

what string brand and gauge do you use for the 6 string acoustic?

[reachfiji]

#1- BADASS BRO

#2- Don't worry about the idiots that are questioning the authenticity. You're clearly playing the guitar and know what you're doing.

[DEATHCOM044]

acoustics you have got to love that.

[Matrocidel]

wow if u notice on 2:18 sec into the video his hand reaches for the mouse but the guitar keeps playing even though he is not struming hmm very strange???

[FormerOps]

@Matrocidel

read the description.

[Synystergatesrulez99]

FEEL \M/

Dude you are good :)

rip The rev!

[Nihadkeso]

i tried this song but i have troubles switching from other chords to Bm.

[zephyr0369]

ok so heres my question do you have the nightmare tab book??? because i have it and you played it perfectly

[vincentmenard]

@zephyr0369 i dont man but i appreciate it! i just did it by ear and looked at some parts for confirmation on ultimate tabs (though it was wrong more than half of the time haha)

[DeadlyxXWoLfYXxD]

@zephyr0369 hey can you give me the tabs plz!!?

[zephyr0369]

@DeadlyxXWoLfYXxD man i would love to give you tabs, but i dont that much time to type them out. there is alot to that song. but if you wanted to you can buy it for $22. thats what i did

[DeadlyxXWoLfYXxD]

@zephyr0369 alright, well thanks anyways bro :)

[XxxBC13XxxX]

R.I.P The REV :'(

[TheKevin2k2]

alguien me puede decir como es el rasgado¿

o rasgueo como le digan xD

D: es lo unico que no logro hacer bien, los acordes son faciles obvio

[7foldfull]

cool im trying this song im a begginer

[Adamde56]

bad ass man

[johnbanana1111]

Why is it that the best cover of this I find on youtube is yours, yet there is many others with more views but the suck?

[Archerosss]

Hey man, mind to share your settings for the UX2? I have one too.

[scarface6501]

Great cover!

Where did you get the acoustic tabs? I can't find any that match up to the way your playing

Thanks man

[lucio202039]

muy bueno!

[LOUDAshland]

I'm guessing u were doing a lead sheet for the acoustic part? Do you happen to have it on the Internet? Lol, nice job

[1996pheonix]

i know he deserves a lot more but the songs kinda new so who cares :D

[Krinordh]

you deserve way more views!!!

[Bellamy8441]

This is so amazing!

[UuWHITEPANTHERuU]

What? Did you mess up in the video or something? Cause the audio is right, but not the video.

[a7xassassyn]

scrolling and playing is a skill that is learned from using Ultimate-Guitar, and you are a god at it XD

[xmusicholicx]

Every single time i heard this song I get the chills

[S0LD13R1231]

can u please tell me were u get your tabs p.s thats amazing skill

[madoerin]

@S0LD13R1231 the chords are: Em; G; D; Bm; C; Am.

[MrVictimMan]

I have never find the arpeggios i came here to see if you got... the song was PERFECT... but no arpeggios ):

Ill try you chords with them (:

PS: Best cover on youtube that ive heard

[BlackRoseDying95]

YOU ARE AMAZING!!! love it! :D

[doublekill470]

do you think it has to played with a 12 string or is it alright with 6?

[vincentmenard]

@doublekill470 its with a 6 string, but i thought the 12 string would bring an interesting sound (so 12 string = not mandatory haha)

[joshaeronsonoffical]

@doublekill470 6 is good but just my opinion 12 sounds better

[TheShotgunfun101]

Nice cover!

[theRunezcapeshow]

song is amazing and easy......FUCK YEAH i'm gonna learn it

[radbrad95]

awesome solo brother

[kaven333kr]

nice job dude :O :)

[superguitarguy75]

some people think they can make a movie in black and white and play a few chords... and expect to get 36,000 views. this is a prime example of this. so FUCK those dirty FUCKERS.

[INFECTEDTERR0R]

Between 2:03-2:06 you didnt strum....and it made the noise...fake?

[roggies2008]

@INFECTEDTERR0R you realise he is playing the record over this yes?

[SpazzlePop]

If you guys want tabs, just type in google: So Far Away Tabs, the first or second one to pop up should be from ULTIMATE-GUITAR. COM. They are very accurate so I suggest you try those out!

[viitinho94]

i need to talk with you!

[vincentmenard]

@viitinho94 then talk ... haha

[BlackRoseDying95]

i fucking love this cover! very good job man! :D

[vincentmenard]

@messiah8393 ive been playing for 6 years now, and i used tabs off ultimate guitar.com

[twigadee18]

the last solo never fails to bring chills up my spine.

[vincentmenard]

@twigadee18 haha, thats the reason why i covered it!

[PowerTMO]

[vincentmenard]

@PowerTMO thanks!!!

[lovethreesixteen]

[vincentmenard]

@DomReborn ... you're a genius!

[pasul13]

nice cover i like it but dude wen u stopped strumming it kept strumming wuts up with that im lost T-T. did u loop play? and at 2:51 u fingers didnt match song................ not sayin its fake but u no im just woundering y does it seem like its looped...

[DomReborn]

@pasul13 he probs recorded the audio tracks separate to the video tracks meaning that it appear he is playing still despite him not strumming

[pasul13]

@DomReborn ahh i wuz hopein tht wuz da case

[CarnaTiges713]

Thanks, helped me figure out the rhythm pattern :)

[wanikhlas13]

[killerzebra75]

[MrSam32751]

nevermind i got it! haha nice vid

[MrSam32751]

holy poop that was cooll. hey i was watching the chords you were playing for the arrpegio part or whatever and i got that part but i think they change when it gets to the part where matt says "so far away, i need you to know, so far away, i need you to need you to know?" but i cant figure them out could you tell me ????????

[Keyzounet]

2.20 fake ??????

[GuitSyn7xKim]

Awesome!

[jasvenegas3]

Uhmmmm the 12 string part is finger picked. Not strummed.

[GusRamos1995]

at 15 to 16 second try to do that:

1E: 2-3-2-0

2B:3-3-3-3

3G:2-2-2-2

[sewelle123]

your acoustic guitar sounds out of tune :s

[vincentmenard]

@sewelle123 you have shit in your ears if you think my guitar is out of tune.

[TheExplodingPumpkin]

@vincentmenard It is very well tuned :)

[crossfaderox]

@sewelle123 it's a 12 string guitar you tardass... it's supposed to sound like that

[tgregory2010]

nicely done man. it's good to hear someone who can do a legit cover.

[bmthdropd]

great!!! you are a master ;)

[zhafranTP]

6 people are deaf

[MsBrittsyVengenz]

I love how the 12 string makes this song sound. Absolutely beautiful.

I use my 12 string for Through Glass by Stone Sour and it sounds so amazing.

[HIMLOVER1510]

i dont like dis song :(

[PS3GuitarMan]

is that an esp ltd mh100 or 1000 or summert? coz my m8 has that one theres a video of so far away on my channel and he uses it in that vid :) check it out

[XAyubi]

Do you record via usb ?

[555Slipknot666Corey]

woww veryy good u video men

[Wats0nnn]

damn man that was sick check out the cover i did for the ending solos of this song

[TheseXIIStrings]

I would kill for that lead tone. what are you using in garage band to get that?

[vincentmenard]

@TheseXIIStrings im actually using a POD UX2 to get that tone, but i record it through garageband (make sure to turn off all pedal on garageband though b.c they sounds really shitty)

[6incubus]

@vincentmenard

damn!! you are amazing man (:

[HHSLeprechaun2013]

NICE!!!! strum pattern?

[Is2GodOnMyHeart]

G / D ? FAKE 1:32

but nice job :]

[vincentmenard]

@Is2GodOnMyHeart haha yeah i must admit that that was pretty bad ... i didnt know the notes by heart so i had to scroll down the tabs as i was playing and kinda got off track haha. i record everything on garageband first, and then i record the video and sync everything up so thats why the sound is still good.

thanks for your comment!

[ornald]

gud 1...A7X roxs 4ever...

[vincentmenard]

@ornald thanks man!

[ferdy459]

You rock friend!

[vincentmenard]

[sk8boarder125]

@piripitiflaustica troll.

[piripitiflaustica]

@sk8boarder125 i cant troll if a want to

[vincentmenard]

@piripitiflaustica read my response to Is2GodOnMyHeart

[piripitiflaustica]

@vincentmenard if you are going to do covers you have to accept good & bad coments

[vincentmenard]

@piripitiflaustica did i ever say i didnt accept your comment? i even admitted that part was bad ... chill

[piripitiflaustica]

@vincentmenard blablablabla i do'n't care

[Santo4HOF03]

great job, loved seeing both the acoustic and the electric in the same video

[vincentmenard]

@Santo4HOF03 thanks man! i might re-do this cover though so please watch it when i put it up

[SmallWondersPro]

how do u record everything like sound and video i just got a new Taylor and i want to record with it

[vincentmenard]

@SmallWondersPro i record the sound on garageband and film the video from photobooth

[LuhRomano]

i liked ... what distortion is?!

[vincentmenard]

@LuhRomano i use a POD UX2 with my own custom tone.

[TheFamousJon]

can you plz do a tut?

[vincentmenard]

@TheFamousJon ill think about it ... ahah

[Rentoutz]

I don't have the tabs that give you the electric fills, Can you send them to me?

[vincentmenard]

@Rentoutz i honestly dont remember what they are but if you look at the video im sure you can figure it out.

I like what you did for the acoustic part before the outro. It's way different, but it still sounds wonderful :D

[DariusMuaas]

This is great! I'm planing to cover this song in honor of Jimmy, but i need a cam first :)

[razamundo132]

Clearly the best cover on youtube!

[eileonie]

Oooow! You're so good! I'm trying to cover it on the guitar as well but I'm such a CRAP when it comes to the rhythm. >< Nice job!
