I see you old fender back on the rack, Any plans on ever hitting the stage with that one ever again. I remember it from the old videos, but i guess no need to mess with a good thing; being those awesome dean machines. Another odd question i have, have you ever read Zacharia Stetchins' book on the possible alien builders of the pyramids? I love modern Egyptology, but am careful to research thoroughly some of the more far out theories of recent scholars.

@KarlofNile Being relaxed while playing is a major problem of mine. I'm so concerned about playing cleanly that my arms tense up and I start to squeeze the guitar neck really fucking hard. It's something I definitely need to work on. Thanks for the video lessons and all the tips you've been giving everyone. You and Dallas are major influences on myself as well as a ton of others.

Aha! I see what you did there. Above average minds think alike I suppose.
Great! Can't find a correct tab about it,now I can play that but I still have a huge problem....
My endurance with the left hand in playing those fast things is making me mad,cause after 2 minute I have to stop and take a rest.
What can I do to improve it??? When I watch you guys playing those things seems like you're doing some slow blues stuff (:
Can't wait to see you again here in Italy \m/

@chitarraio90 Thanks ! Endurance comes from just plain old fashioned time spent doing lots of Brutal Playing. There is no shortcut :-) Other than that tho - pay attention to your breathing and try to learn to relax your specific hand/arm tension - and overall physical tension. Trying to stay "tense" and holding your breath for the entire time will just wear you out . Learn to relax and focus the power. Its just like Martial Arts - A relaxed musce is faster than a tense one.

@KarlofNile I hope you took no offense to my previous comment. What I meant to ask was do you use this technique as well in changing rather bland scales which I now know you do. Thanks for responding too; it's cool to talk to an inspiration.

@KarlofNile Fucking cool!! In one interview, Dallas mentioned that alot of solos are created by adding sharps and flats to fairly basic scales. I assume he's not lying?

@TheCorpseshredder As far as I know , Dallas is not a liar . He is referring to the concept of creating altered scales ; a technique that we have found yeilds newfound tonal possibilities in the usually somewhat harmonically constricted idiom of Death metal .
