Guitar Lesson - Still Day Beneath the Sun - Opeth

Awesome track by Opeth - great fingerpicking exercise. Tabs included and parts played slowly and shown from different angles this time so you can see the right hand finger patterns. Have fun, enjoy, any questions please message me.

Good luck with it Bob K.

Sorry about the 60 seconds of nothingness at the end???
Also the sticky tape on my guitar is a big no-no but I had no choice, kept getting 'cable buzz'.

Used a Gerard Gilet classical guitar (1993) and a Rode M3 mic with a Line 6 Spider 30w amp. Sony vegas for the video edit and Cubase for the audio.

Nice video, like all your other ones :) ! This is the next song i learn. Mikael Akerfeldt is the reason why i started playing guitar and eezerian is the reason why i started playing Mikael Akerfeldt.

@42imix Hey, thanks for watching and commenting. That's very kind of you to say that, makes it all worthwhile. Can't go wrong when the writing is as sublime as Mikael's. I started playing classical guitar years ago but I was completely seduced by Opeth's music from the first day I heard it. Didn't think I'd ever play metal but there you go.

More to come and good luck with your playing.

Thanks again,

Eezer

Thats why Opeth is the best, they actually show you how to play their songs. I have been playing this with out a capo. The notes are basically the same but the finger placement and everything with it are different.

Could you perhaps make a tutorial for Blackwater Parks solo? It sounds easy but u have a good ear I Wana perform this with my band an I want it to be perfect :P

[Steelfossil]

@42imix Exactly the same here!

[eezerian]

@dijuba Thank you, yes Isolation Years would be great but I'd have to learn it first. If I ever get round to it (I'm bound to at some point) I'll let you know when it's up. Thanks again.

@KaelZildjian87 Thanks for your comments, I'd love to do Dirge for November too but I'd have to learn it first. Actually Dirge was the very first song I heard by this band back in 2005 and I haven't looked back since. Great stuff. Thanks again for watching and there will be more.

@GrevMivlos Hi grev, thanks for coming to watch my vids again and for your generous comments. Been meaning to do a lesson on this song for ages so it's good to see it finished and people checking it out. You're right the online tabs are dodgy as hell so it's always helpful to have correct notes (relatively). I'll do more in the future and let you know when they're up. Thanks again.
