Guitar Player's Thread

when compared with bed of razors, which has no sixteenth notes? :lol: or downfall, which, aside from the solo, is also a pretty straightforward verse riff. i'm not going to sit here and act like some l33t player and just call everything easy :p.

easy is something like AYDY, LDB, or IYF. ;)

@ChildrenofCOB: But he didn't use the BOOSTER part with active pu's. that would sound so AWFUL.

You're not gonna tell me that solo is easy
 
You're not gonna tell me that solo is easy

those sweeps are way easier than that diatonic run in the Downfall solo, dude.

quite frankly, the most challenging part of LDB, for me at least, are those one (two) string arps that precede the solo, followed by that ascending diminished run
 
NOOOOOO!

Is my favorite guitar, and I thought his new signature would be something as cool as this one, but his new guitar is very ugly :yuk:

Really cool day overall. Turisas were cool too, but I didn't dig their stuff, except the song Rasuptin which is awesome.

Next up, Paul Gilbert on Nov 14th & Bullet For My Valentine on Nov 15th. And hopefully, Lamb Of God & Dimmu Borgir on Feb 14th too. :kickass:
