Where the streets have no name U2 - guitar cover

This is me trying to play where the streets have no name by U2.
I dont have stratocaster so i played it with my SG.
Sorry I know the camera is aimed badly, but this is my first video.
I have also tried to explain the song more in detail, so just in case you would like to learn i posted some captions with the info of the song.
I hope you liked it, please leave a comment or suggestion. thanks for watching.

my equipment is really basic but i found this great webpage for all you the edge fans out there (you may have found it already) http://www.amnesta.net/edge_delay/

Update: Be sure to check out my other cover of streets with my new strat!!! and thanks for all the positive comments!

great job dude! ive got an sg too and i want to play this song so bad! how long did it take you to learn it?

[saldezsaldez]

@clmsntigr113 it took me about a couple weeks to learn it, but about 2-3 months to actually master it. this was one of the first songs that i learned.

i've been playin for 35 yrs. considering the guitar and set up you have, i must say for technique 9/10. i say that cause we can all improve and aspire one day to reach the 10, but honestly i enjoyed that. Eric, session musician on about 25 albums in the last 10 years. good luck.

well i really appreciate your comment because i recorded this video when i was just about to turn one year as a guitar player. ive been playing guitar for two years now, and getting a good comment from a person that has been playing for 35 yrs, means a lot to me. thanks.

what pedal? cause the edge uses two signal things, but the number one echo works too, and what like number did u put it at like 250?

[saldezsaldez]

the pedals i am using are all boss pedals. i am using the compressor/sutainer and the DD3. i have a Marshall MG15dfx amp. as you can see my equipment comes nowhere near what the edge has. hahaha. but what you really need is: a lot of compression sustain, delay set at 340, little chorus, minimum overdrive, a stratocaster, and a vox amp. thats about the least you can have to sound like the edge. and yes the edge does use 2 delay signals and a complicated network of mics on stage for extra echo.
