Diminished String Skipping Lick à la Paul Gilbert/Jeff Loomis/Rusty Cooley

I was just messing around with the outro arpeggios to Racer X's "Scarified" (which are ridiculously hard) and came along with this one and thought I'd share it with whoever is interested. It's hard to play it slow, dunno why. Jeff Loomis and Rusty Cooley also do it quite occasionally.

C'est vrai que ça ressemble bien à du Loomis !

@IloveRillettes

Il l'utilise beaucoup, par example dans le solo de "The obsidian conspiracy".

The more I look at it, the more I come to the conclusion that the mere presence of the sock is a prerequisite for guitar awesomeness. Seriously, you should call one of your songs "guitars sock".

Holy shit, you've just raped your guitar!

@Ellinarkkari

now don't blame me for the sock on this one, it's around the HEADSTOCK, ready to be tied around the neck ;)

andy james uses a hairband, there's nothing bad about using a sock, i guess.

oh, by the way: it's a ibanez RGA 121 prestige, customized w/ a dimarzio PAF pro in the neck- and a D-sonic in the bridge-position. i totally dig it, although it doesn't come close to jackson ;)

[juiceweaselism]

Frickin flawless. @_@

Once again great technique;)

Cheers

Awesome dude! Glad you added JL/RC part. Love how it sounds on the last try more than first, dont know why.
