I have no classical training, so I can't call myself a classical guitarist, but I have composed a ton of "classical" stuff on guitar, and have played some previously existing too.

Full songs:
The Grand Conjuration (incl. lead)
The Leper Affinity (incl. leads)
Godhead's Lament
The Drapery Falls (working on the lead)
Harvest
In My Time of Need
Death Whispered A Lullaby
To Rid The Disease (incl. lead)
Ending Credits
Deliverance
Master's Apprentices
Isolation Years

partial songs:
Benighted (incl.lead)
Bleak
Ghost of Perdition
most of Damnation

...I guess that's about it.

The Grand Conjuration solo is hard...

The Grand Conjuration solo is hard...

It sounds more difficult than it really is...

 

[Koi]

i agree...i cannot understand the first part of it

 

[Heliotropic_Rose]

does anyone know if MIke. had any classical guitar training

and no I have't, but i have some orignals that i think sound classical

 

[annt]

I play it in dropped D tuning (I know it's in open, but it can be played with that too). I don't know if it's right but i play the beginning of the solo like this:

B---5-6-10-10-6-5-6-13-13-6-5-6-15-15-6-5-6-17-17-6-5-6-18-18-6-5-6-17-17-6-5-6-15-15-6-5-6-13-13-6-5- etc.

tapping the higher notes obviously.

 

[Godhead's Lament]

It sounds more difficult than it really is...

Maybe it's just the Guitar Pro tab that I downloaded...the numbers are so close together that i can't even tell what they are

EDIT: Thanks a lot annt!

 

[Heliotropic_Rose]

Hey God Head tell me about that Guitar Pro tab....like what it does exactly, the cost, and what a cpu needs to power it, or whatever

 

[Khayman666]

I can only play Master's Apprentices, Demon of the Fall, and the acoustic part of The Night and the Silent Water.

I took classical lessons for about a year, but didn't enjoy it at all. My instructor was so nazi-ish about it it was freaky. He did everything possible to kill every creative cell I had, and basically dismissed everything composed by anyone within the last century or so who had less than 20 years of studying behind them.

 

[Godhead's Lament]

Guitar pro is a program. I downloaded it from Torrent I think.

It's basically a program that allows you to tab songs and download already made tabs for songs. The website I use is http://www.mysongbook.com

It has about 85 Opeth tabs.

What the program does is play the tab, actual sounds and rhythm and all. The good thing about it, is that it also allows one to tab drums, bass, guitar, keyboard and every other instrument out there, so in the end, you a have a complete song, only without vocals. And you can slow the speed down while learning and then speed up as you get better.

It doesn't require much CPU power. I used it before on Pentium Celeron 933mhz and it ran perfectly. you can get the demo of the program at http://www.guitar-pro.com

Cheers

Heliotropic_Rose: I recommend you try PowerTab, it's free and good.
www.powertab.com (if I remember correctly) has the program and www.powertabs.net has many good tabs, including Opeth.

Power tab is ok, but GuitarPro has much more to offer. and has far more tabs than PowerTab

 

[Heliotropic_Rose]

kick ass, thanks Godhead and annt, i'll check one of the two out for sure!



why don't any of you, post your opeth covers?

 

[annt]

Actually, I just thought about posting the GC solo... The timing isn't perfect because of the absence of drums/metronome... just a quick recording on my digicam.
