Hi, I'm Dave Weiner. I'm a Favored Nations recording artist, a G.I.T. graduate and have been playing in Steve Vai's band since 1999.

Every Wednesday I do a new Riff Of The Week™ guitar education video. Here's Season 3, Episode 26 "Complex Riffs Made Easy"

You can find Hi-RES HD versions of this video at riffoftheweek.com or by subscribing (for free) to the ROTW podcast in ITunes (search Dave Weiner).

Interested in my music? My first cd "Shove The Sun Aside" is available on iTunes, Amazon and at www.daveweiner.com/store

Hi Dave, for this particular video, which efects do you use specifically?

[riffoftheweek]

This week I was plugged into my computer which was running a preset I made in Guitar Rig 3 inside of Protools. I thought the tone was horrid, but it served the purpose as I needed to get the R.O.T.W. done quickly.

The tone was based off a Bogner amp dry.. i think.

what gauge strings do you use on the 7 string?

[riffoftheweek]

10-56
