I'm an ol'skool funk and RnB bass player from waaaaaayyyy back. You absolutely nailed every single part!!! This is my new favorite play-along song!!! Great job!
Jake, great Cover!!! I have a question for you. Is this video monetized? We had one of our musicians do a similar style cover of this tune and it was pulled due to copyright infringement. The kicker is we didn't use a backing track. We had our guitarist cover all parts similar to what you did here. Any advice would be much appreciated! Thanks -SR
no it is not, i had it taken down twice but the second time i filed a dispute claiming that this is not from profit and for educational use only. seemed to work hope that helps!
Nice job! I used no backing tracks and played and sang this song solo using my Boss RC-300 looper and they still hit me with a copyright strike and removed it. Happy they let you keep this up!
Hey man, nice cover. Thinking about picking up the rg450 like you have here. Do you still really enjoy it? How would you compare it to a Jackson soloist slx?
thanks! I really like the RG, neck feels really slim and fast, the pickups aren't the greatest but with a little messing around you can get a great sound outta them. I've never played a jackson before so I can't really say much about the soloist, but from looking at it you can't really go wrong. if you wanna spend about 300 bucks more you should look into the LTD MH1000 which I currently play and it is fantastic, love the EMG active pickups. check out some more of my recent vids like my master of puppets cover and see it in action!
can you send me the tab please?? i started to learn how to play guitar recently and i’m trying hard to learn how to play this song because hotel california is my favorite song, but i didn’t found a perfect version like your version.
The was a great cover. There were a few errors but the opening was absolutely flawless!!!!! (so flawless I had to check 7-8 times to verify it was you playing) Please re-record this cover. Remove the vocals in the background, lower the other guitars while playing the solos and fix the very few errors in the notes. If you do this you will have millions of views on this cover. Btw you are amazing!!!! Super super talent!! I liked this video and subscribed to your channel.
nice job.. the playing and the editing... not exact, but that's a heck of a chore to tackle.. close enough.. 90% or so.. i've been covering this song for 40 years.. i've spent years honing my skills on this one (and stairway, among others) to be as true to the recording as possible.. i've had to teach the fills and harmonies to umpteen guitarists who joined my bands or when i joined theirs.. i always try to mimic the recording note for note whenever possible.. you certainly have the talent.. dunno what was causing the foul notes at the end.. keys? backing trax? and your 12 string level was too high throughout.. drowning out some of the other parts.. and if you ever retry this.. use a real bass and play the whole bassline.. the walk up, and down.. it really makes a difference.. and your fills were a little incomplete.. and some parts were embellished a little.. to be expected.. i'm sure you know all this.. you are very good.. just some advice if you want to really play it right and get the right sound.. phenomenal video man.. even as is, thats one helluva job..
What did you use to get all those videos playing different times in one video frame? could you make a tutorial on how to do this type of video?? What type of video editing is this called?
I'm guessing he got away with it because the vocals have pretty much all been removed from the song. Sure there is a point where you can sort of hear a voice but I listened pretty close and the voice doesn't really sound like Don Henley so my guess is the playing of the instrument itself isnt copyrighted so it passes by. Just a theory though, I mean it could be removed tomorrow. I was watching another cover just last week and the next day it was removed for copyright reasons. So I guess it could also just be a matter of time.
Was dead for like 5 years and I just left it alone and one day it said the video was public again. No idea. Was pretty pissed off tho worked a long time on this just to have it taken down for so many years
So true! I was talking to my rhythm guitar player because I told him I want to do my next cover song on Fleetwood Mac, “Dreams”, and he was talking about adding in some acoustic guitar, rhythm and electric. Now I can hear that with lead, rhythm, but ADDITIONAL acoustic. I am not sure. It will be an interesting arrangement.
For anyone who wants to sing along:
On a dark desert highway
Cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas
Rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance
I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night
There she stood in the doorway
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself
"This could be Heaven or this could be Hell"
Then she lit up a candle
And she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor
I thought I heard them say
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place (such a lovely place)
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year (any time of year)
You can find it here
Her mind is Tiffany-twisted
She got the Mercedes Benz
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys
That she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard
Sweet summer sweat
Some dance to remember
Some dance to forget
So I called up the Captain
"Please bring me my wine"
He said, 'We haven't had that spirit here
Since 1969"
And still those voices are calling from far away
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place (such a lovely place)
Such a lovely face
They livin' it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise (what a nice surprise)
Bring your alibis
Mirrors on the ceiling
The pink champagne on ice
And she said, 'We are all just prisoners here
Of our own device"
And in the master's chambers
They gathered for the feast
They stab it with their steely knives
But they just can't kill the beast
Last thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back
To the place I was before
"Relax, " said the night man
"We are programmed to receive
You can check out any time you like
But you can never leave"
Thanks
Me: "Oh cool the vids starting, 12 string guitar that's pretty li-oh my god it's a double neck, thumbs up from me"
I'm so in awww, can't stop playing it...loved it Thanks Don Felder was a genius. .you are very blessed and talented..
True talent right here. Wish I could do this.
thanks man appreciate it
this song doesn't ever end,tremendous.
I'm an ol'skool funk and RnB bass player from waaaaaayyyy back. You absolutely nailed every single part!!! This is my new favorite play-along song!!! Great job!
Don Felder would be proud. Very very nice.
Wow, you're really good mate. I can't even imagine the effort you must have taken to get all these different pieces together. Keep it up!
thanks man!
I've also been learning for 3 years. I'm hoping I'll be as good as you one day.
practice makes perfect my friend!
That was incredible!! Sung it the whole way through
Amazing. Simply fascinating. Wow, this should have millions of views like some other covers, astonishing.
Fabulous video. I'm a fan.
Tried to sing the song with my eyes closed and this background, i was in perfect sync. Good job.
Outstanding my brother.... bravo
I was thinking about posting my rendition of hotel Californias solo, and then I saw this video
Just do it! I want to see 👇 drop link here.
An amazing piece of work. I am in awe of your ability.
Great job on the production and editing quality. Bravo man bravo!
Hopefully sue-happy don henley won’t take this down

This is definitely well within the parameters of DMCA fair use. But, I take your point. Don's an ass.

Came here from GuitarLessons365Song's lesson for this and saw your comment. pretty bad ass. Sweet guitar too.
Great job Jake! Well played

I love this song so much great video

@@jamm15😂
Great tone for the solo mate. What effects did u use?
🔥🔥🔥
It would be great if you record the acoustic guitar with a microphone. Nice cover dude, congrats!
yeah I agree but I didn't have a mic at the time I recorded this. Thanks for watching!
im surprised u arent famous yet
Bloo , I’m very famous as I’ve just released my greatest hits volume twelve
How did you do that reggae style rhythm? Could you please explain? 🙏
JUST PERFECT ֱֱֱֱֱֱ!!!
Thanks!
Great job!
Fix the chicka-chickas though. It should be: 1 chicka 2 chicka 3 chicka 4 chicka...
Oh and wasn't Joe's part played on a Tele?
hey where did u learn this i would love to learn this
How the hell did you do this 3:06
are you using a phaser during the solo?
what program do you use to record the tracks?
The was a great cover. There were a few errors but the opening was absolutely flawless!!!!! (so flawless I had to check 7-8 times to verify it was you playing) Please re-record this cover.

thank you for the feed back!
Hey man! Did you learn this by ear or is there a tab? If there is a tab, would you mind telling me where you found it? I'd really appreciate it!
hey men
WHAT DO YOU THINK A MAKE COVER GUITAR YOU AND ME '?
The 12 string at the intro needs some Leslie!
nice job.. the playing and the editing... not exact, but that's a heck of a chore to tackle.. close enough.. 90% or so.. i've been covering this song for 40 years.. i've spent years honing my skills on this one (and stairway, among others) to be as true to the recording as possible.. i've had to teach the fills and harmonies to umpteen guitarists who joined my bands or when i joined theirs.. i always try to mimic the recording note for note whenever possible.. you certainly have the talent.. dunno what was causing the foul notes at the end.. keys? backing trax? and your 12 string level was too high throughout.. drowning out some of the other parts.. and if you ever retry this.. use a real bass and play the whole bassline.. the walk up, and down.. it really makes a difference.. and your fills were a little incomplete.. and some parts were embellished a little.. to be expected.. i'm sure you know all this.. you are very good.. just some advice if you want to really play it right and get the right sound.. phenomenal video man.. even as is, thats one helluva job..
How many guitars do you need in your collection? Yes.
Where is Glen Frey guitar here?
how long Do you practice man ?
Not be that guy but the rakes were a beat off (probably recording issue). Everything else was on point tho great job👍👍
What did you use to get all those videos playing different times in one video frame? could you make a tutorial on how to do this type of video?? What type of video editing is this called?
J M Final cut pro will do the job, just use cropping and transform. look up some vids on those 2 and you’ll be good to go
Did you fast forward that acoustic part at 1:30 ? Also i dont hear what it is playing
anom it's playing the bass line
Hey Bro, how did you post this without copyrighted issues? I'm struggling to post mine
I'm guessing he got away with it because the vocals have pretty much all been removed from the song. Sure there is a point where you can sort of hear a voice but I listened pretty close and the voice doesn't really sound like Don Henley so my guess is the playing of the instrument itself isnt copyrighted so it passes by. Just a theory though, I mean it could be removed tomorrow. I was watching another cover just last week and the next day it was removed for copyright reasons. So I guess it could also just be a matter of time.
How long did it take you to learn this
I learned it and recorded it at the same time, so about a little over a week
That's it?! I've been learning this for a year or so and I still can't get it.
Is ti a real double neck Gibson
its the Epiphone version of the Gibson 1275 so no its a replica
Henley didn't kill this video?
Was dead for like 5 years and I just left it alone and one day it said the video was public again. No idea. Was pretty pissed off tho worked a long time on this just to have it taken down for so many years
ornamentation
How the hell do you hit those pinches harmonics man??
lotta practice!
This is why im afraid to attempt this you need 7 guitar parts at once and i dont know enough to develop my own arrangement.
So true! I was talking to my rhythm guitar player because I told him I want to do my next cover song on Fleetwood Mac, “Dreams”, and he was talking about adding in some acoustic guitar, rhythm and electric. Now I can hear that with lead, rhythm, but ADDITIONAL acoustic. I am not sure. It will be an interesting arrangement.
This is pretty good except the "chicka chicka" parts should be played on the downbeat...
The 6 string part is missing a few notes.
4:19 Solo.
3.08 awwwww noo :/
I’m sure it helps a hell of a lot but man that pinky looks kinda freaky
4:20
"The Guitar Army" *Idiocracy*
Nope.
the muted strums are wrong timing
!!!!!!!
Este guitarrista clásico toca las 4 guitarras en una sola, es estupendo! ua-cam.com/video/OtO6eQb8tck/v-deo.html
