I feel I'm being pretty childish for asking this, Chris. But oh well. On your UK tour in June 2013, can you make it so that you guys play at least one of: Sudden Death Deadly Nightshade (particularly love the solo after the little breakdown/interlude at 3:10) How the Story Ends 44 Minutes...

thanks for the advice guys, I've gotten a lot better at it since posting this thread. Haven't been able to bring myself to drilling a hole in to the beast that is the Loomis 7 :p but I'm still keeping that in mind. I just had a long play around with the strap and finding a position to stand...

i never knew that! that's pretty cool. And yeh, Brett Garsed was how I found out about this guy. Quid Pro Quo is an awesome album of theirs!

what's up, all you 8 finger tapping fans! I've recently been getting into some jazz/fusion stuff and stumbled across this guy. I had no idea 8 finger tapping had been around this long, he has a very different approach to Chris it seems. Check him out and see what you think...

After a long wait, Chris' pick clips are now on sale... why has this forum not BLOWN UP with posts?? :p

no problem man, if you have any more specific questions you can post them on this thread and I (and other dudes on this forum) will do my best to help.

Hey Zane, you remind me of myself so I thought I'd try and help you out, you can find a lot of information on Chris' path to success on chrisbroderick.com. It tells you where he studied, how much he practised, what he practised, courses he took, influences, and a whole bunch of other stuff. He...

Hi Mr Broderick and guys on the forum, I, like a lot of guitarists, practise guitar while standing up waaaaay less than I should! I've realized I have to be sitting down to play the more difficult solos that I've learned and I just had a massive freak out like "oh man, how the hell am i ever...

what do you mean by feel..? you want more vibrato? more "out-there" bends?? ... i think he totally nails the solos, he plays them better live than marty did!! no matter how good you get there are always gonna be critics it seems... *face palm (mute)*

hey, I did the same thing myself!! Not really possible to play pinch harmonics properly when using it. Not sure if you know this but Chris actually designed a pick clip where you can attach/detach/reattach any pick you want in any position (giggidy) that you want. And I'm pretty sure it allows...

cheers for the advice guys! getting the hang of it a bit better now!

had a quick search on youtube, pretty much perfect to me! plus if you notice, they up the tempo live as well

hes not unable to... its a hard solo no matter how good you are, particularly the change between tapping and sweeping near the end; playing something in your bedroom on the thousandth try (which is what i do haha!) is one thing... playing something 100% perfect on stage in front of thousands of...

Anyone know any tricks to learning it/ the best way to practice it?? ive always been so amazed by how Mustaine sings and plays the guitar parts at the same time, particularly the first 4 albums. I can sing the parts, i can play the rhythms (most), but has anyone got any advice on combining them?

so excited for these now! the pick clip's gonna virtually never be off my thumb :D

the best rule I have found is any strings below the string you are playing (that is to say: the strings higher in pitch) you mute with your left hand by kind of... pivoting your fingers towards the fretboard so they dont ring out. And any strings above the string you are playing (that is to say...

you can slow down playback on windows media player too, if you go to enhancements and then play speed settings... literally spent hours getting down the "How the Story Ends" tapping and end run... still not sure if ive got it 100% hahaha. But id definitely recommend abysslords tabs, but kinda...

thanks 'spittles' and Mr Broderick, really cleared things up... i don't think i was approaching music theory from the right angle at the time i asked this, and you guys really helped. Btw Mr Broderick, my paycheck is going towards your Jackson 7 String signature (Trans Black or Trans White...

wow! thanks man... all makes sense now! ... now that you've explained it like that I feel stupid for not realizing sooner hahaha! Cheers dude!
