Guitar / COB question

[Liquinn]

I can play a bit like Touch Like Angel Of Death on guitar.

Why does it feel different when it's me playing it as opposed to listening to the song?

Is it because I don't have the vocals?

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Wrong tuning (Something Wild is in C#) ?
Different gear/equipment?
Sloppy playing?

Playing a song does feel different than listening to it 100% of the time though (At least for me), so, a more detailed description could be helpful.

I'm using a Jackson guitar and my guitar's in standard.

Hmmmmmm... I'm still playing the part of the song but it feels different.

What reason do you think is the most accurate? If I'm playing the song, it could be the gear and the wrong tuning.

What's the best way to get the sound the artist has? Alexi used a jackson guitar as he switched to ESP a few years after.

Standard tuning songs sound fine. How do I tune to C sharp from standard?

u should learn more about playing the guitar, diffrent tunings for an guitar means you the tension on the strings are higher or lower, you need to have an guitar tuner to tune your guitar,

as much as you want you cant make giant steps. learn the basics of playing guitar than practice practice practice eventually you can play COB songs,

and to get the same sound as Alexi is almost impossible, the brand of the guitar doenst make you sound like the artist using them, its the playing techniques, the feel for music, the equipment like amps and pickups.
you can get the same Equipment as alexi had, but still than you wont sound like him. because you simpelly are a diffrent person !

down 1 and a half step: C#, F#, B, E, G#, C# are, respectively, 6th, 5th, 4th, 3rd, 2nd and 1st string.

You can set your tuner to this tuning, in my tuner it's simply by pushing a button to add b's which mean down a half step, so it would in this case 3 half steps = bbb.
If you do not have a tuner, you can listen to the tuning on youtube and mimic that.
