      I think an amazing tour for Maiden would be called all the long uns. Rime of the ancient mariner, Alexander etc all the long epic tracks no hits to speak of

    Iron Maiden are my favorite metal band of all time, I've always loved this song so much and this entire album, I'm surprised they never played this live, maybe they will surprise us before they're finally done. I watched a concert clip and the audience was screaming Alexander the great and Bruce told them they weren't playing it, instead he sang the chorus Alexander the great for them😂

  • @thequietgamer2743
    @thequietgamer2743 5 років тому

    I can say he possibly uses an Ibenez 6 string guitar with an active pick up system (possibly why it sounds so bright and clean to the ear) and the usage of heavy gain overdrive, because I doubt distortion would allow individual notes to sound so clean when the effect is on. Whether I am right, or wrong, I can not determine that. Though I would be interested in knowing he setup.

    • @CharliesMaidenCovers
      @CharliesMaidenCovers  5 років тому

      ok let me answer your question: the guitar is Jackson, dont know which one exactly, but looks like some old Dinky model. I sold this guitar few years ago. Pickups were pretty good sounding, they were passive though. The sound is all about amplitube 4 settings. I think i used tubescreamer before some marshall amp and chorus + delay efect for somewhere in time album + some equalization obviously. dont have any presets though, because I usually modified the setup before recording next track, and i didnt save any setups

    • @maximilianodelrio
      @maximilianodelrio 4 роки тому

      Charlie's Maiden Covers so you just used an oversrive pedal? How can you get such heavy sounds with it? And do you think I could get a similar sound with an MXR Super Badass Distortion and a MARSHALL MG30GFX amp?
