Cheers, I went to see them last month in Manchester and they were awesome. They are great musicians and their concerts are so much fun. Mate Bodor can really shred.

@@GarryParker I haven’t seen them in years but they are so much fun!

Cheers. It's fun to vent a bit of Jimmy Page 😁

Cheers, mate!

Cheers mate!

Cheers mate!

Cheers mate!!!

Cheers mate. It certainly an "in your face" tone!

Cheers mate!

I wish! haha

@GarryParker you may not think so... but I can hear it and see it in your playing. It's a lot like a fingerprint. you can't deny your DNA. All fingerprints are individually unique lol 😆

Thanks! Ibanez calls it Poisoned Pumpkin. It took me a while to find one.

@@GarryParker Cool, I don't think I've ever come across one with that colour!

Thanks mate. Yeah, I like the open string stuff because it's a lot easier than it looks!

Thanks a lot!

Thanks a lot!

Thanks a lot!

Thanks mate. The video effects are the easy part, haha.

Yes, the backing track is a lot shorter, just 4 repeats of the chord progression, so we need to keep it concise. Only 38 seconds to shine! I think Antony was worried about his review video getting too long.

The reason was also to make room for as many entries as possible 👏😊

Thanks mate. Adrian Smith is a big influence on me so that's a nice compliment 🤘

Cheers mate. I'm not at your level, but I still have fun 🤘

Thank you!

Can you name the techniques that you're using? Is there some staccato? (Noob here 🙈)

@@kreavix sure! Happy to help. The first section is just single notes but they follow the backing track, E,C,G,D,B. I do a half step bend up to the C note (from 1 fret below), a technique which I stole from Marty Friedman. He uses that trick a lot. The second part is some fast pentatonic stuff. Look for Anthony's video "that lick Kirk Hammett uses all the time" for a start on that one - it's all about the picking. The third part is called "double stop" bends. You basically play two strings at once and either bend them both or just one to create a really nice dissonance, especially with distortion. The last part is just hammering on and pulling off with one finger on the high E string, moving up and then down the E minor scale. Each pull off causes an E "pedal" note. It looks and sounds way harder than it is! Give it a try.

... Oh I forgot to mention the bit at 00:16 is "pinch harmonics". I just hold the D note at the 12th fret and play different pinch harmonics near the pickups. Give those a Google they are fun, too!

@@GarryParker Wow thanks a lot 😃👍 I didn't expect so much detail, but I'm glad you took the time to enlighten me 🤗 Now I have something to research on 👏

I totally agree that the neck pikup isn't great. My favourite neck pickup is the Seymour Duncan '59. They do a "little '59", which is known for being quite fat. I may do the swap myself at some point.

​@@GarryParkeri sold this guitar for the pickups, but i miss it a bit. It's also incredibly cheap compared to other japanese or american guitars. The neck wood felt a bit cheap, but i think it's because it was new and needs some aging to get to that more yellowish color that the old school RGs had

​@@biohazard8295I agree that the neck pickup is awful, but I don't use those much. The V8 in the bridge is fine for me. I have 4 Japanese RGs and I play this one the most at the moment. It has the thinnest neck of all of them and I love the maple board. The old-school heel joint gives it a different vibe as well.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. It's my favourite guitar to play. I love it.

@GarryParker Thanks, pretty stoked. Love the case combo by the way, gives it a great presentation.

Totally agree, mate. I have 6 RGs!

Hi! It's a song I wrote myself as an exercise for my guitar teacher. However, the main melody is based on the song "Live For The Kill" by Amon Amarth ua-cam.com/video/Bh_5ofa__pY/v-deo.html check it out, it's great.

Thanks, mate!

@@GarryParker yeah like lets have total simplicity, but still keep the Floyd Rose 😃 EVH would approve, I do too! Enjoy it!

Yes, you need to buy the hard case separately if you want one. I have a few RGs, so share the cases. This is the one from my RG655 Prestige.

Thanks a lot. It's all about having fun and I really enjoyed doing this. 😊

Thanks mate! It was a lot of fun.

Thanks man. I used Movavi video editor which makes the editing a breeze. If I'm disqualified then so be it, I was just having some fun!

@@GarryParker Agreed, unless you are getting paid it's all about having fun. I might try that Movavi, I'm mostly hopeless with editing. I'm going to put mine up in the next few days. Cheers Garry

Thanks man. I thought you might like it, you're as crazy as me 🤪

@@GarryParker you're welcome! It's no fun if you can't challenge yourself to do something wild and crazy 😜🤪 🤘😎✌️all the world is a stage. Even if it's just in your own living room/studio.

Yeah, I can only play clean for so long 😀

​@@GarryParker yeah what is this cleeen nonsense? 😂

Thanks mate 🤘
