Sevendust - Better Place (cover)

Hi Rock Fans! Sevendust just released their new album 'Cold Day Memory' last week, 4/20/10. This album kicks total ass! Glad to hear Clint Lowery on guitars and vocals (I think) again. Go pick up the new record on iTunes:

http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/cold-day-memory/id361717151

This is my version of Better Place, which is my favorite track on the album. Fantastic riffs, awesome vocals. This is Sevendust at their finest.

I hope you guys enjoy my cover. It's always fun covering a song that features two guitarists, because I have to pick which parts to play. I chose to play all of my favorite parts, so it may appear that I am 'jumping around' in the song - that's intentional. ;)

I hope that Sevendust can hear the respect that I have for their musicianship in what I play, and I hope you guys watching have a great time rocking out to this song!

I own no rights to this song. All rights belong to Sevendust and affiliates.


Enjoy,

Gary Noon

I've never listened to these guys but great cover. Sick tone. I just got the same guitar(differed year) on Sunday. But haven't played it because I tore two ligaments in my left hand and I won't be able to play for 3 months. I wanted to hear the tone. Nice and heavy.

@dsl100stack Thanks, my friend. Here's to a speedy recovery...

[sunildholwani]

what are your settings on the mesa for sevendust tone....thanks

[garynoon]

Hi. I'm using both the Diezel Herbert and the Mesa Dual Rec on this tune, so the Mesa may sound a bit 'odd' on it's own:

Red Channel:

Presence - 11:00

Master - 10:00

Gain - 5:30

Bass - 8:00

Mid - 9:00

Treble - 5:30

Enjoy!
