He Is Legend - The Seduction Guitar Cover HD

Info: Did this one as a request from a friend. He is Legend is a relatively unknown christian band, who I consider to be one of the bands involved in the rise on metalcore alongside As I Lay Dying and Killswitch Engage. They sound very different to the modern over-produced generic metalcore bands, and their dirty, raw, southern feel gives them a unique sound, not to mention their music videos being hilarious.

Techniques/Tips:
- Quite easy overall, uses a lot of conventional techniques such as power chords and chucking.
- Be comfortable doing pinch harmonics on the lower D string, as it is repeated a lot through the verse breakdown.
- Lots of quick octaves, keep right hand lose and unused strings muted with middle finger.

Guitar: Ibanez RGT42DXFM
- Neck pickup: Dimarzio EVO DP158
