Thanks for watching! Had a lot of fun jamming these solos! It's all from one take yet again, so there's a few mishaps along the way but it's all good. Some notes: Generally during the harmonies, you're looking at what's played in the right ear. The exception is during Save Me, because the first guitar harmony in that song starts exclusively in the left ear so I kept with that - it sounded strange reversing the harmonies mixed with the original track peeking through. Also, in the Stage's first solo I played the lower harmony in that crazy slidey bit but the on screen tab shows the higher harmony. Higher's solo is played with the sustainiac on throughout. Check the tabs for both the solo and harmony transcriptions! www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/f5v91fc5av6rgo5b8zj6p/h?rlkey=p67rdyjbrak1scy41mnxfjvm5&dl=0 And timestamps in case you missed the description: 00:00 Intro 00:34 Nightmare 01:34 Scream 02:25 Lost 03:21 Save Me 04:46 The Stage solo 1 05:26 The Stage solo 2 06:16 Danger Line 07:23 Higher
This is a famtastic list. I'm glad Lost made it on here given that it is almost never covered by anyone reacting to a7x. I would absolutely live to see at least the intro to Exist on a future list
Cheers! Yeah exist is a beast. The intros like the length of this video! I think its almost a necessity to cover at some point on my channel hahaha, just a matter of when...
Ayyy nice! Glad to have helped out! I'd gotten a few comments saying the same thing - that Higher didn't have a decent tab - and when I went to learn it, I agreed haha. Glad to help out fellow guitarists!
You played the scream solo so well, UA-cam thought it was the Live in the LBC version of it. That's wild. I aspire to be as good as you are one day, amazing video man.
Sick playing! 🔥🔥 That higher solo string skip section was so well played and makes the most sense as to what the song actually is! Well played! And sick amp you have back there, that’s some good taste in amps, just make sure to tag them because Hughes and kettner interact with so many posts by the way.
@@KarzGuitar absolutely! H&K and schecter almost always interact with posts that have their products and they send messages too! You represent them very well, it’s only right. Cheers, brotha!
The fact that the fans can't agree on a top 10 shows how good syn is at writing guitar solos. This also applies to how people cannot agree on which A7x album is the best.
God hate us Gunslinger This means war Dear god Doing time Shepherd of fire We love you To end the rapture Set me free Sidewinder Dancing dead 4:00 am St james Lost it all Please bro
@@Just99jacob oh sick man! All the best! Time required will be down to how much you practice + what you practice. I think it helped me greatly to attempt songs that were way out of my league. I noticed progress stagnated whenever I played comfortable songs/ exercises over and over. Would be awesome if you document your progress on youtube or somewhere similar!
honestly all Syn solos are top tier so it's very hard to chose haha. Glad you included Higher, it's my favorite song for a few years if you do a follow up i would suggest: To End The Rapture Chapter 4 The Wicked End Dancing Dead Natural Born Killer God Hates Us Carry On This Means War Paradigm Fermi Paradox
I cant help but notice that dancing dead, to end the rapture, i wont see you tonight pt 2 are not on this list. Good job tho thats crazy to do in one take
Hmm, I've been playing 16 years now but I think a lot of those foundations were set up in years5-10. Had more time then, now it's about getting cleaner and more consistent rather than faster/better, and making sure I don't lose my skills as life takes away all the free time haha
Cheers! I'm playing through a Hughes and Kettner GM 40 amp, but the sound on the video is from Archetype Petrucci. It's nice to have an amp to hear my playing with low/no latency, but I prefer to use amp sims for videos since it's so easy to tweak your sound afterwards:)
Ikr, looks like there's a lot of additional requests going on 😄 I suppose I'll have to if this video ends up doing anywhere near as well as the first one...
Yooo I've done that already, it made it into the first top 10 solo video I did :) should be my second latest video (not shorts) on this channel, check it out!
Great video bro. I have a Japanese Ibanez RG2550, I am thinking of selling it and switching to the synyster custom s model. Do you think it makes sense?
Hey thanks man. I've never played much with mid/high level ibanez guitars, so its hard to say! But personally, the Syn custom S looks better, costs more (at least where I live), and the sustainiac is a nice tool to have. So I'd lean towards yes, but remember that I'm no ibanez expert 😆
Hi man, first of all nice vid. I was wondering how do you manage to hit that up stroke on the b so cleanly ? Because I play it like you without removing my middle finger from the string but I end up hitting it twice or missing it. That note has been haunting me.
@@Ghallium ahhh yeah, man its really a spray-and-pray approach haha. Ideally you'd economy pick it, but my economy picking wasn't consistent on this solo so I just try and mute the high E with my picking hand when I go to the b string, then have the b slightly muted when I'm back on the e
@@KarzGuitar that sounds weird, how do you mute the e ? And why lol ? I mean the problem is on the b string being hit more than once ? I don't see how muting the e would help
@@Ghallium just lightly with the palm of my hand. Stops the b from ringing out when I move my finger off of it and go for the next group of notes. Otherwise the open b can ring out
@@KarzGuitar guess its time to break out the good ol synyster gates custom again, that things badass. if you do make another ill be listening out for that roman sky solo 🤘

Those were in part 1, my personal picks - check it out! This video here is part two, where I covered the songs that people complained I missed in the comments:p
Generic What 😂 save me? Scream? Stage ? Even nightmare is as memorable as it gets because the song is as popular as they get. They could've even threw in to end the rapture almost easy sidewinder shit 95% of their songs have solos and they're all good.
2 videos and still no Gunslinger and So Far Away. They aren't as intricate to play, but carry the most emotion along with Seize the Day IMO and hence, should belong on the list.
Well I'll only take responsibility for half of that :P this second video was based on the number of commenter votes at the time of recording, and unfortunately there was just one for So Far Away and Gunslinger. Maybe in the future tho!
Hey man, I had a listen! I think the solos pretty straight forward, so I think my time is better spent on trickier songs. It would be a really good ear training exercise as a beginner/intermediate, highly recommend that you slow the song down in something like Reaper and try to figure out the notes!
Subbed. If you're watching this and learned anything, sub. My guy put together a whole assed video with tabs, you just have to click a button. who worked harder?
Hahah cheers bro, appreciate it! And yep, I've got that Loomis and another one of his Cygnus models. Also had a third loomis sig but recently sold it - figured two was enough haha. No immediate plans to bring out the loomis for the moment, but I did cover Miles of Machines last year!
Honestly between these two videos I’m sad there’s not a single sounding of the seventh trumpet ik there’s not a lot of solos but the ones there are are better imo

Haha that's awesome! All the best man, it's just time and practice 💪
Agreed with your favourites last video but these are also amazing!!! Rock on! ❤🔥
Cheers! Yeah, Syns work is hard to narrow down to a top 10 - the other candidates are just as fantastic \m/
The scream solo is actually what introduced me to avenged sevenfold and you captured that feeling of hearing it for the first time very well 🔥🔥🔥
Wicked End solo,would to see it🤘🤘🤘
It's on the list ;)
Cmon you didnt include gunsligther???? Thats my favorite one, right behind liggke beese of melvin!!!! 😤😞
I had yo suscribe after this two A7X videos, I really felt the same as I felt when I just discovered Avenged Sevenfold when playing nfsmw.
fermi paradox tho

@@KarzGuitar you're insane despite what m shadows says 💀
@KarzGuitar you could probably take the videos of the ones you've already done, between all your videos it's a lot
How long did it take you to learn guitar like that? I never played guitar, but your playing definetly sounds amazing and pretty flawless

Just make a video "All of A7x Solos" in one video bro. Keep it up bro 🙌🏼

Are you wearing batik ? You are amazing☺
Wicked end pleaseeeeeeeee
It's on the list... I'll get to it eventually :P
To End The Rapture.
you should do "i wont see you tonight" and "sidewinder" the acoustic solo
Great video bro. I have a Japanese Ibanez RG2550, I am thinking of selling it and switching to the synyster custom s model. Do you think it makes sense?

Try simulation off of the stage… that one is almost nonexistent on UA-cam and it sounds ridiculously hard lol
Haha yeah, such a crazy song. Cheers for the suggestion bro
dude, please do:
and all things will end
i wont see you tongiht part 2
Cover both dancing dead solos
scream was a bit overkill because those are done in triplets, where as you just picked every note, still, good job
@Dark-Samurai-nr7es sorry but I'm not understanding the distinction - you mean some of those notes are hammers/pulls?
Tab out all the solos for I won't see you tonight part 1 please 🙏
