Helloween - If I could fly (guitar solo cover)

When I saw this song live in -08 it was like goose bumbs all over. For some reason I haven't listened to it for a while and when I did yesterday I thought: I want to play that solo! So here's my take:)

My playing got some flaws of course and I added a little personal flavour, so it's not exactly as the original.

However, I hope you like it! Rate/Comment please, and if you want more metal: subscribe!

hey! nice job....and what make is that guitar?

[strilaren]

@LUPTON1995 Thanks:) It's a Dean EVO Special Select.

I love the nicer Evos. What's cool about them is that the body-shape is almost-identical to a Les Paul - The mahogany body and maple-top are the same thickness as they are on a LP, so acoustically, the tone is the same. Just put in a nice set of vintage PAF-type p/u's and replace the pots, and suddenly you have a guitar that sounds better than most modern, US-made Gibsons. Plus, the Evo's neck-joint allows for better sustain than the Gibsons. Dean used Honduras mahogany, which is better/lighter.

@gangtwanger Yeah, I also dig the look of the Evos:) Dean makes some really cool guitars. I don't got so much knowledge about setting up the guitar and changing pickups, but it would be nice to try out another set of pickups!

5* I like it :)

Sweet:)

[drumfisch]

nice and thanks for sharing, great song

[gangtwanger]

@strilaren - Changing pickups is not that difficult. The toughest part is the soldering, but even that's not a big deal as long as you're careful and follow the wiring instructions.

The biggest lesson I learned about guitar-maintenance is this: Keep the nut-slots clean. If there's too-much debris in the string-slots, it can totally-give your guitar major tuning issues, so keep those string-slots clean.
