This is my favorite song on the amazing new album so I decided to learn it and film it for others to use as a guide. I couldn't figure out everything so I added a few of my own parts. It's not 100% but I believe it's fairly close to how it's played. Please leave comments and rate!

Tuned to drop Bb/A#:
B♭-F-B♭-E♭-G-C / A#-F-A#-D#-G-C

  • Great cover man. This is also my favorite track off the album. What gauge strings do you use from low to high to be able to drop the tuning so low on a 6-string?

  • @drockny Thanks! I actually use a "skinny top heavy bottom" set which is 10-52. Logically, I should have used something much heavier for playing so low but I didn't want to restring my guitar just for a youtube cover since I normally use 10-52. You can hear the notes go a little out of tune at times because of this.

  • Hi. what pick ups did u put in ur soloist? my one has got emg hz and i'm thinking to replace them with the emg 81 85 or would u recomend something else?

  • @wojtassini81 I have Dimarzio pickups in my Jackson. I use PAF Pro and a Tone Zone. I have active EMGs in my other guitar. They are good for metal. They have that chunky sound to them but they don't sound very dynamic. I honestly don't know too much about pickups. I kinda just went for these and they sounded good. Do some research, check out some videos, and see what you think would sound best for you.

  • @melodicmetal83 ahh i see, yeah my dad has (but i play them because i still live with my parents considering im in college) a mikael akerfeldt signature, custom 24, special and se singlecut (but he put custom 24 pickups on it) all of them are the best guitars i have ever played

  • @guitar7901 Thanks. PRS guitars do look nice but my next guitar purchase is going to be a custom.

  • @melodicmetal83 Lolol metalheads come out with some of the funniest shit, just look at mikael akerfeldts stand up he does...btw great cover and love the shirt. Also might I suggest prs guitars to you? especially seeing how you are an opeth fan
