Thanks alot guys, it's really good to hear all this, especially since I've barely picked the guitar up for the past 6 months.
@ChrisEmerson: Yeah, that was Bumblefoot playing it. I've been trying to learn that solo for ages, but for the life of me can't play it fluently enough.
@Hope leaves: You'll be surprised at this... haha.
See that pedal in the first frame of the video? Well that's a Boss ME-50. That's pretty much the crux of my tone. The amp? It's an Epiphone 10 watt... yeah... I was using my rhythm guitar setting too, but it seemed to have come out alright anyway.
@Dreadful: You could say that. I normally like to learn by playing both ways. If I can play it fast, then that's one hurdle out of the way. If I play it fast, but it sounds like shit, then I slow it down and work on technique.
Thanks again dudes. I'll see if I can dig up that old Forest of October thing.
