YoBroMan,

Nice job! I've heard people do this before but not with nearly the accuracy as this - the tone is great too! (Gear?)

A challenge for you: Learn Ed's Source of Infection intro. If you applied the same accuracy on that as you did for this then there would finally be a lesson done accurately, for those interested.

I would even be willing to send you a few bucks to see the Source of Infection intro lesson as accurately as you did this one.

Thanks for the time/accuracy - VERY cool! Nice!!!

@4GuitarTrance Source Of Infection from OU812 is very cool. I'm really struggling just to get any videos up because I have no time.

Yo!

@YoBroMan Hey, Yo, I understand. I never seem to get the time to sit long enough to do it myself. Still, I enjoy watching/learning from other players... especially considering real players are, in my opinion, so rare these days. No hate, just fact when it comes to "rock" guitarists these days.

Hey, no good turn should go unrewarded. If you get the time, let me know, I'll tell you how to contact me, and I would be happy to compensate you for your time and entertaining lesson. Keep playin', Bro.

@4GuitarTrance I really appreciate the offer, but I couldn't accept anything from you (or anyone else). I've put these few tidbits up here for free so people can have fun, that's what it's all about. I'll see what I can do, but it's been 10 months since I've had time to post and I haven't played guitar in several months...so I suck pretty bad at the moment. :)

Yo!

@johnsone7777 I have old stuff; a 1982 Marshall JCM 800 2203 with the original 6550s. A Marshall straight cab with 4 65 watt celestions, I have the back off so the sound can "breath". A Boss analog delay, an Alesis Microverb and a Boss Overdrive pedal (the yellow one that was make in Japan).

Of course, it does all start with the fingers. :)

Yo!

[johnsone7777]

I hate being retarded. I started thinking about the UFC after the 5th harmonic.

[ZZUBZERO]

Everybody is impressed with what you show here......me included. as good as it gets and great job explaining it, very tricky stuff, thanks for slowing it down, now I have my work cut out for me.

Excellent

@YoBroMan Again, I understand - responsibility. I'll watch for a Source of Infection lesson. If not, it's all cool! Mean time, don't stop playing, Bro. As I said, there are too few actual players these days... it would be a shame to allow life's cares to rob you of your obvious talent. If you don't use it, it WILL go away! Your ability is obviously natural - that too is rare. God gave you the talent. It would be a shame to stop using it. The "player era" is gone... I'll look for a better future!
