“The Extremist” by Joe Satriani is a super fun song to play, and I figured I’d have even more fun trying to adapt the song to the Fender Stratocaster! It was definitely a little challenging with the 21 fret limitation and (intentionally) not using a whammy bar, but I just love how the song sounds when played on a strat!
Gear used to record:
Guitar - Custom Fender Stratocaster
Amp - Axe FX 2 XL+
Camera #1 - Sony ZV-E1
I'm open to song cover suggestions, but I'll most likely keep covering Satch/Vai since I mainly listen to them and I already know how to play a lot of their songs. Leave a comment if you have any suggestions though! ^-^

He looks like he's actually having fun. I wish he'd do more of these types of music videos because despite the fact most people know him for his gaming vids, he's actually an amazing player.
