Any Dream Theater lovers here? Solo inside...

[Ola Englund]

I've got some request from people wanting to hear me play more lead on my savage(I'm a riff guy and don't solo to much) so I did a rendition of Dream Theater Lines in the sand(like every other guitarist on youtube).

The video features soothing MIDI-instruments and a ENGL Savage Lead tone.

Enjoy. And if you're a DT-hater; cover your ears.

That's a fucking sweet lead tone to my ears, and for a self-proclaimed rhythm guy I'd say your chops are more adequate, very nice.

 

[GarethSE]

I do love that solo very very much. When Petrucci quits the weeldes and just writes some nice tasteful bluesy emotional shit, it always works so well
Amazing playing too man, you have some chops for sure
i love your tone as well

 

[reaperscythe]

your playing is Amazing
and your tone.....just perfect

 

[lolzgreg]

100%

 

[Ermz]

Nice technique dude. The Savage doesn't handle those kinds of tones half bad either, I'm doubly impressed!

Your youtube videos always clip like crazy though!

 

[Keregioz]

awesome playing.

 

[lekteri]

I love it.

 

[cobhc]

Sweet tone, playing, and even sweeter shorts.

Which mic preamp you use again Ola?

Sounds great dude, my only comment would be that perhaps you were just a bit too, I dunno, clinical or robotic; with a solo like that, I just really feel like the player should get into it and fucking wail, cuz it's so soaring and expressive; I mean, don't get me wrong, if I were just listening to it, I'd be like "yeah, this sounds great", I guess it's just looking at you being so calm and reserved, I wanna see more like rearing back and "ooooh that's funky" faces and stuff But yeah, well done man! But what is that...thing doing hanging on the wall?

 

[Mikaël-ange]

Best Savage lead tone I hear imo
And really amazing playing, congrats man

 

[Jaymz]

No complaints from me! Awesome playing and great tone!

 

[K Odell]

That solo was fantastic.

 

[Dexter_prog]

How good DT used to be at composing...

Very nicely played! I really like your tone

 

[Nebulous]

Oh man, I seriously don't need any more Engl GAS than I already have.
Nice playing Ola.

haha! Epic solo in all fairness, awesome!

 

[KeithRT99]

That is some CREAMY tone. You have some skillz.

 

[HandsOfDespair]

Wow, really good sound and playing.

Hmm are you sure, I've tried on different computers and they sound fine, it doesn't even clip when watching it on my Iphone.

Sweet tone, playing, and even sweeter shorts.

Thanks. H&M
