08:39 Conclusion
You do the "Gojira pick rake" by raking the side of your pick rather than the flat of it across the string. With or without the natural harmonic. You also need the have the flesh of your thumb scraping along the strings with your pick to add higher harmonic overtones, its a bit like a pinch harmonic. So a lot of your thoughts on how its done are on the right track.
I wasn’t seeing your vids for the last few months. You’ve really took it up another level when playing through songs and so is your explanations of what you’re doing. Keep it up🤘🏾
Your progress videos are what got me started down this rabbit hole of guitar.
Still love your content keep it up!
I love your honesty on learning what you have ACCOMPLISHED this far so 🤘🤘 yeah 👏🤘
It`s always very nice to see your beautiful smile Rachel , I know you can do this piece ,thanks for your app it`s great and very helpful to me ,Stay Safe and Take Care🥰😉😊
This was fun! What's your favorite Spiritbox song?
"Hurt you" for me
Rule of Nines is pretty good. Circle With Me aswell. Great video btw. Go for a 0.64 string for that low F :)
Secret Garden (the clean guitar in the verses is quite interesting, by the way 👀 worth a try for a future video)
I can't stop listening to Jaded because of the the chorus and especially the ending. My first encounter was Belcarra
Circle with Me
You're spot on about the Gojira scrapes 😂 It's chirping the strings with your thumb/pick the same as a pinch harmonic but pulling up towards your body across the strings. You'll get it! 👏🏻
This is my favorite spiritbox song!!! Love your cover!!!
Thanks for this video. Keep on!! 🔥
For the pick scraping Mike did a little tutorial on Riff Hard. He pulls his pick sideways across the strings while also touching it with his thumb, similar to a pinch harmonic. You managed to work it out in the video, it just takes a bit of practice
Respect for trying to learn this song! It’s honestly quite difficult to get sounding exact and with the groove! Also, little tip!! Drop pedals/software and/or extended range 7 strings are your best friend! I play a 27 inch scale down a half step and use a digitech drop or the drop setting from his amp software to go down. Sounds fantastic and no flubiness!
Killer sound! Great job
Thank you!
I think Joe duplantier of gojira always holds the pick perpendicular to the strings (like cutting across the strings) when making that harmonic scrape sound while the left hand mutes and hits that harmonic like you were saying! I need to practice that too 😅
I did try that but it didn't seem to be getting the exact sound, will need to experiment more! Thanks :)
Love your enthusiasm! I was also wondering which Ibanez 7 string model you are playing in this video. It looks awesome!
awesome! nice video
Cool vid! My favorite Spiritbox song is definitely Circle With Me 🤘
Another great one!
You can tune to drop A and then use a pitch shifter to lower 3 semitones
Awesome video and awesome riff! I feel your pain with down tuning tho, it's really hard to adjust, especially that low. I still get trouble with drop c sometimes, I can't even imagine that.
Thank you! Yeah, I usually like very light strings, but they don't work super well for this case!
The riff on this song is niiice
Very cool and that's some seriously low notes 🤘🤘
What guitar is that please, it looks awesome - the description has a different Ibanez
The tone you’re getting is actually really nice. What gauge strings are you using? I know you mentioned them being a little flubby or buzzing some more than normal?
As for the scraping sound: they turn the pick so that the side/rib of the pick is perpendicular to the direction of the strings
I did try that, but wasn't quite getting the sound! Might just need to play around with it more.
@@RachelfGuitargood luck 🤘😼
@@RachelfGuitar Try using your ring finger to do the “harmonics” instead of your pointer finger. You want to do a “rolling” technique so you aren’t letting the notes ring out. Even though they are very quick, it will help make it sound a lot cleaner instead of laying your finger down all of the strings at once.
Also, pay attention to your picking hand and play with where you are doing the scrapes themselves and at what angle. He is using a multi-scale guitar so it will be slightly different for him because of the angle of the nut and bridge.
It’s the same kind of logic when you are playing different pinch harmonics, where different points on the string will give you different harmonics depending on where you are fretting with your left hand. The 3rd fret isn’t a really great “natural” harmonic, but that’s kind of why it makes it very good to use that for pick scrapes because they are short and quick.
Hope this helps!
has been a while since I played guitar so I dont know drop F# on a 7 sting...guess I could just follow the online charts..maybe you could try your scrapes closer to the bridge/tail
my fav song has to be jaded, love spritbox
That's one of my favorites too!
Same! 😍😍
You got all the peices just keep practicing
It's time for a 27 inch 7 string!
😮😮😮
Favorite song is The Beauty of Suffering. Tuning down is always fun though it can be easy to just chug on the low string. Lowest i've tuned is drop G# for a Metallica song. Anyways, great video Djentchelf!
It is very tempting to just chug away :), thank you!
Hey Miss Rachel, I have a question, when you were first learning guitar, did you learn it all on your own, or did you have an instructor to help you with it? I ask because I've been trying to learn on my own but it hasn't been easy, which I know that it isn't intended to be easy but just curious, and if you did learn to play on your own, do you have tips for a beginner?
👏👏👏😎👍
Loge it, full cover when?
I have an 8-string and still can’t play a single Spiritbox or Sleep Token song. Thank you for showing the way!
However the 8 string is much closer in terms of just getting the strings to fucking cooperate for this, or possibly even a 9 string, dont you agree? that being said, I would NEVER use standard 8 string tuning for how I want to play. My crowd wont pay me for it. The 8 string is just so out there, that I cant legitimise that investment until such a point as I am making consistent royalty payments, then i can actually fork out the dough. And thats the 8. For a 9 I'd be more interested in how Big Joe Williams used to play it. That's something i can actually get paid to do....
what do you mean you can't play a sleep token song? they have like the simpliest guitar parts i've ever heard in the genre, it's just super slow single notes with pretty easy rhythmical patterns, I know this cause The Offering was the first song I've learned in the first week of picking up a guitar haha
Play more modern metal songs pls!!! Btw I love this song and Spiritbox
Spiritbox is awesome! What other bands would you like to see?
@@RachelfGuitar Wage War, Periphery, Architects… and other bands to djent on that 7 string 😁🎸
Hey, doesn't he utilize a pitch shifter for lower tuned songs? This way the strings stay nicely tensioned
He does! It's later in the video where the song goes down further from drop F#. The thing is drop F# is also pretty low already if you have lighter strings 😅
@@RachelfGuitaroh, sure, my bad, mistake of commenting too early, haha. But what I meant was that the whole guitar is tuned not in F# to begin with. I'm not entirely sure, however 😅
@@sega.milkis That would also make sense, but I'm pretty sure he's in F# to start with. Could be an alternative for me maybe though!
@@sega.milkishe is in f#, he only pitshes down further down from there
How long have you being playing guitar now?
8 years I think.
It’s not rattling, it’s percussion! Duh! 😉😂
wtg! I broke my left thumb nail.
Ever plays 8 string guitars make everything more easy
Looks like he is rubbing his thumb on the strings with the sweepy scrape thing.
which is stupid. a pedal, distortion, and a slide should do it in combo if nothing else does. god i miss my slide. finding another one for my big hand has been worse then pulling teeth. dropped it in the grass last spring. my capo i managed to replace, even upgraded it, but my slide is fing gone.
