Carol Of The Bells | August Burns Red | Guitar Cover | HD!

Merry Christmas!

Easily one of the more difficult songs I've done, but still very fun to play, and seeing as how Christmas is rolling around here soon I thought this would be the perfect song to do.

720p is cool.

As always, guitars recorded in Mixcraft 5, panned left and right, EQ'd and Compressed. Harmonies also recorded. 808 bass hits were added by me in the breakdown section (turn up your subwoofer to feel those!)
Video shot with Canon PowerShotSX130 mounted on a tripod. Mixed the 2 videos in Sony Vegas 10 Pro.
I ended up switching computers, so I lost my old intro video template, so I just made a new one with a template from AquuL.

Drop D?

[episgscustom]

@xauncor Drop C actually.

[ahboo27]

Very well executed if I must say so myself. You missed the epic powerslide at 1:24 though :(

[episgscustom]

@ahboo27 I know! After I posted it and listened to the original again, I found it.. :(

[sebwproductions]

what amp do you use? the one that came with it? i have the same guitar and want to get a similar sound and was just wondering

[episgscustom]

@sebwproductions No, Im using a digitech rp350.

[CameronAlleman]

Thumbs up...cause I'm his big brother.

[TheJmacc12]

Your v-neck is so hawt! <3

[scmustang23]

Mixcraft! Awesome! My favorite and only software I use!

[smaragdboa]

@randomguy806 u have no vids of yourself playing and you fav cod vids... so my guess is that your 12 yrs old and dont know a flying fuck about music in general

[Axel9978]

Too fucking awesome O.O

[PlatypusxOuroboros]

@randomguy806 Eh? It syncs up just fine here, and the song IS in drop C originally...

[episgscustom]

@randomguy806 I'd like to see your video of you playing it then, and then over 1000 subscribers. Thanks for the view. 

[elitehero36]

@episgscustom you should make one of this song I MUST LEARN!!!

[Songwriter4God]

@episgscustom Wow. Sure sounds programmed. :P

[episgscustom]

@tonyhawkrono Will do! Thanks!

[tonyhawkrono]

Hey man. Just always sweet !! Keep it coming =D

[episgscustom]

@Songwriter4God It's actually the song in the background turned down lower.

[episgscustom]

@Songwriter4God Haha I know what you mean about old people! Same here.

I'm gonna just go on a whim and say key of C. Only because its in drop C. lol.

[Songwriter4God]

And, did you program the drums? IT sounds like a drum machine. Just the sounds of it and how it's "played" sound like one. If so what'd you use?

[Songwriter4God]

Nice, finally got the time to watch the whole thing. you nailed! Great job, again! :P I want to do this as a solo at my church, probably can't happen though, too many old people, they'd all just stare at me and go "It's loud." Like in Back to the Future. :P Our church just got a new drum kit with a double bass though, so it'd be awesome if I could play it, but our drummer disappeared too, so probably won't happen. :( Nice cover though. Do you know what key it's in?

[Songwriter4God]

@4Hislove4Hiskingdom :\ Sad, you have a PRS SE Santana it looks like in your profile picture and you need tabs to play? Taking the time to learn stuff by ear really helps, you should try it. So, are you gonna Google next time before asking for tabs, especially when he clearly states on his channel (I think), and on EVERY video that he learns it by ear? It's a MUCH quicker response, trust me, .16 seconds is much better than 2 days.

[randomstuffstuidios]

my favorite christmas song...just got better.

[episgscustom]

@ama11891 Ohh! Yeah, I'll definitely see if I can do some more lyric-less songs!

[ama11891]

@episgscustom No, like you playing to songs that dont have lyrics. Honestly I love the songs you choose, but the lyrics drown out the guitar. This was just awesome! I could hear the guitar, I could hear you.

[episgscustom]

@smbarber4 Everything was flat on the mixcraft, digitech details in the description.

[smbarber4]

@episgscustom on both
