Right, I'm not doing it now.

Seriously, that was fucking great! Now what I've got so far sounds even worse,

 

[_Nazgul_]

Nicely done Ben!

 

[children of COB]

BTW could anyone post a T,L,&S backing track please? I can't do them and I can't find one on the net, and don't want to record over the original song.

Thanks.

Haha, thanks guys.

I used my SV (with J50BC & JE1000) into a good old GP-1000 (this was the 87 model, btw).

I recorded the output of the GP-1000 directly, then did a lot of heavy processing to get it to sound "real." So no cabinet or microphone was involved. I used Voxengo Boogex for the cabinet simulator, along with a few eq plugins, and that's about it! Just make sure to give them strings a beatin' as Mitch pointed out. And the secret to the overall dirtiness is in the bass sound, I think.


Here's the BT is anyone is interested.

Thanks a lot for the BT Ben!

How is everyone playing the main gtr/keyboard melody???

I'm playing it like this, at the moment:

 

[_Nazgul_]

I learned it about a year ago differently..more alt. picking and strings skipping, no pull-offs..same notes though..but never really practised it much, so can't play it 100% clean. I need more practice.

I'm playing it like this, at the moment:

I did the same, altho I played the C (12th) first, then the G (12th) then back to the C, instead of GCG as you are playing it I might have read the tab wrong tho!

I'm playing it like this, at the moment:

The last 9 on the G string I play a 14 on the D string, otherwise I play the same, but I don't think if I'll take part this time cos what I've got so far sucks, I can't play it clean enough. I've got the rythm guitars done since this morning but I can't handle the ''lead'' clean enough and also I miss quite a lot of notes If someone doesn't belive me I can post the proof, but beware, you might end up deaf,

How is everyone playing the main gtr/keyboard melody???

I'm playing it like this, at the moment:

im playing it this way (and sloppy aswel)
no pull offs, everything picked and the 7 - 12 - 7 in the second bar
but as i said before, i play everything 2 frets higher, so the distance is smaller, but i can play it this way to

 

[<-Warheart->]

I think that's the way I tabbed it in the tab in the first post, isn't it? I was gonna learn it that way but I thought it's tricky enough as it is so I might as well keep it in one position.

For anyone that has the Rockhouse DVD's, how does Alexi show it?

 

[children of COB]

^Yep, it's the position on your tab, and I modified it too cos it was easier for me,

 

[Ben Johnson]

This is how I've been doing it.

yup

they don't show it in the video
but at 1:20 they play that riff again (in other key)
but what is he playing at 1:24, his hand goes up the neck, i don't hear any high notes, or is it the pinch (which is half a second later)

 

[marfal66]

This is how arcane it plays, it looks easier to me + he don't have to move his first finger




gtg sleep guys, succes with it

[Ben Johnson]

You are correct.
