For those curious, my guitar is a Raven West RG450.

***** It's March 31st and I have been accepted for the Fall 2010 term!!!!! *****



Hi there! Here are the two pieces I played for my Berklee College of Music audition which I had February 8th, 2010.

The first is an original called "Noate" which I have copyright on and the second is "You Enjoy Myself" by Phish with my own little spin on it (no copyright intended).

If anyone has any questions on preparing for a Berklee audition for guitar please feel free to send me a personal message and I will give you all the instruction I can. I won't respond to comments concerning advice. Please message me. Thank you!

Also I'd like to thank my friend Ben for filming and putting the video together! He's a bad ass.

Thanks for watching!

i was about to rant about yet another obscure yet expensive handbuilt humbucker guitar with no discernible soul but that one actually has real character!

@whynottalklikeapirat I actually paid $400 for it. Raven West are very pretty guitars which give the illusion that they're pricey, but they're really affordable. ravenwestguitars . com

such lovely playing and tone man, wishing you the best of luck...those harmonies until somewhat 2:30 were gorgeous...the rest was a bit too much for me, but your abilities are great :) thanks for sharing

@Fr3etd4nc3r Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Fuck it, you don't need Berklee.

@TheMeatty2 I have not had any classical training, I just found this position to help reach some of the wider chords. Thanks for listening!

The yem was pretty sweet dude love covering that song on drums

[whynottalklikeapirat]

@rrescozoo5 Hah, thats funny. Well - coming from my ridiculous mac built-ins i liked the sound. I've had much more expensive instruments sound a lot crappier so i guess frequencies count for a lot with crap speakers. But even taking the price difference between europe and the states into consideration i'm amazed its possible to do decoration like that and still make it sound original as well within the price range. You happy with it?

@SignsOfYuquiyu Fair enough :)

[SignsOfYuquiyu]

@rrescozoo5 I haven't bro, I was just kidding. I say that whenever I watch somebody shred. I even told my guitar instructor that.

@SignsOfYuquiyu Please don't give up! If you like my video, send me a message and we can talk music.

@717deathmetal The beginning is in Dminor, the middle is in no particular key... more whole tone ideas, and the ending bit is in Dmajor.
