Tina is from France and Vigier is a French guitar manufacturer. She was one of their signature artists at the time and is still listed on their web site, or was the last time i checked. Tina studied classical guitar from the age of 6-13 when she switched to electric under the tutelage of Renaud Louis-Servais, a well know French guitarist/instructor. He is the one filming her videos. She is well known for her technical covers, but to me it is her covers of For the Love of God, Altitudes, and The Loner where she really shines. They require touch, feel, emotion not just technical ability and she nails them. By the way, she's chewing gum the entire time she's playing.
DragonForce are a British power metal band from London, England. The band was formed in 1999 by guitarists Herman Li and Sam Totman, and are known for their long and fast guitar solos, fantasy-themed lyrics and retro video game-influenced sound. I was never a big fan of Dragon Force but when Tina S released her cover … I changed my mind. Then Herman Li reacted to Tina (A must see) and instant respect for Herman and DragonForce. Tina has disappeared since 2017. She was 16 when she did this cover. All her covers should be watched and listened to. Thank Jeff! This reaction should bring in thousands of hits.👍❤️
Tina S is absolutely amazing. Pity she vanished. But I really enjoyed this reaction video, Its always good to hear an actual musician can appreciate another talent. 1 more subscriber here. Keep it up
Dragonforce are from the UK and still performing and the two guitarists are amazing. There is a UA-cam video where Herman Li, the main guitarist, reacts to Tina S playing this and he is seriously impressed. He suggested that she is using Guitar Hero with both guitars removed as they are on a single track which means she is playing both guitar parts !! It might be worth you watching it as very informative. Sadly Tina S disappeared from UA-cam at the age of seventeen never to be heard of again. But there some amazing covers from Yngwie Malmsteen to Steve Vai and others.
I guess in a way she is "playing along", but I think the more accurate way to describe this is that Tina took the uploaded GuitarHero3 track to this song, subtracted all the guitars, then implemented her own style of guitar playing.
Have a Vigier Excalibur Supra, best guitar I have ever played. Carbon fiber strip in neck. No neck adjustment . Just stays in tune. Received perfectly in tune. Temperature and humidity have no effect on it About the only way to try one is to buy one. Pricy, around $3500 to $6000+. They are going out of business end of 2023. You would have to order from France. Reverb & check seller. Pick France over Japan since it is made in france. I'm about your age. Played since I was 15. If I had the choice of keeping one of my guitars, it would be the Vigier. Incredibly low action.
Nicely done once again, Jeff! 'Through the Fire and Flames' is a song by English power metal band DragonForce. The song is acclaimed as the most successful song by the band. The song was the lead single and opening track from DragonForce's third album, Inhuman Rampage. It is known primarily for its rapid twin guitar solos by Herman Li and Sam Totman. It peaked at No. 86 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 61 on the Canadian Hot 100 in 2008, making it the band's only single to reach either chart. It also enjoyed briefly renewed popularity in March 2015 when Tina S, a French guitarist specializing in covering solos of heavy metal from Van Halen, Gary Moore, Iron Maiden, Megadeth, and Pink Floyd, and metalized classical music including pieces from Beethoven, Paganini, and Vivaldi, uploaded her cover of 'Through the Fire and Flames' to UA-cam, sending the song to number 13 on the Rock Songs chart. It has sold 1.1 million copies in the United States alone and has been certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America. The song is written in the key of C minor (but in standard E tuning), and like most other DragonForce songs it is written in a fast tempo of 200 beats per minute with a common time signature (170bpm in the first half of the guitar solo). Near the end of the recording, guitarist Herman Li broke one of his guitar strings. Despite this, the band decided to keep this recording and left it on the final album version. DragonForce are labeled as extreme power metal, and, while both being heavy metal subgenres, power metal and speed metal (as DF have sometimes been labeled as) are very closely related, with the former combining characteristics of traditional heavy metal with speed metal, often within symphonic context. Tina S has only 16 videos on her UA-cam channel and she managed to attract a following of almost 1 million subscribers to her channel, but like Clive Matthews mentioned in his comment here, Tina S stopped uploading her covers to UA-cam with her last one dating from Aug 17, 2016. I liked both performances for the technical skill that is being displayed, but to be quite honest, I don't really care that much for either of these subgenres of heavy metal. 🎸🤘
@@mikemath9508 Nope, I've never used ChatGPT before (might try it sometime though). All the facts mentioned in my comment here I've looked up on Wikipedia and UA-cam. If you think that it lowers the quality of my comment, well, so be it. In that case, I'm sorry you're unable to appreciate my efforts.
@@mikemath9508 Alright, so you don't consider what I did as an actual effort, that's okay, I'll admit it's easy to do, and I thought that the Wolfman might be happy to learn a couple facts about DragonForce and Tina S, that's all. I didn't know I needed a degree in music to post comments on his YT channel. Cheers, btw!
She has her own band now called spin twice but check her Jason Becker cove and be amazed don’t forget to watch Dan Vasc do Sabaton the last stand and be amazed as always keep up the great wk both of you
If we all fly together to France and search for her, maybe we can persuade her to come back and play. After 7 years of being ghosted, I sadly doubt she will. We have lost, most likely, the best female guitarist in the world! The handful of covers that she has done is worth listening to. Pair her with the originals. Herman Li said she had to have downloaded the stem tracks from Guitar Hero 3 and muted his and Sam’s guitars. Herman Li reaction video says it all. Thanks again! I would never suggest crap and I am always searching for new talent.👍❤️
when you have been playing the guitar for 40+ years and you think you are good... then you hear tina play at 17 years old and younger.. and realise you just wasted 40 years of your life learning as much about guitar playing as a monkey.... :)
totally not into dragon force or their style of metal. not really into metal at all, and no, i'm not a hippie, i just don't listen to it recreationally. there's a few odd hard rock songs i really like but i'd never sit down and listen to an album. but that doesn't mean i don't see the artistry or talent or effort put into it. it can be impressive but i still don't have to like listening to it. i've listened to Tina S cover this song probably 10 times in the past 48 hours just because it's really cool to watch, there is no tina s or dragon force on my personal playlist.
Call out to cnotesonly. WOW,WOW Shred city. Tina is amazing. To bad this must have got blocked. Jeff's blocked videos don't show up as new when released? Nor do they set off bells? It shows as 2 days ago. I have learned to peruse his playlist. A lot of his a list shows end up like this. He looses hits and fans miss the great shows. Jeff another new to me artist that I have to research. Your channel keeps me busy, thank you. Be well🤠
I can search and find it. If it is being blocked, would I still find it? UA-cam is crazy. Herman Li gave verbal permission in his reaction to Tina to go ahead and download any of his songs and cover them. That right there should null and void any copyright issues. A sane person would think that … I think?
@@THSeaNotes If you have notifications on for Jeff's channel you will see when he posts something. You will also see the shows that are blocked if you click on them.They will show blocked for whatever reason. When UA-cam finally releases them for some reason on Jeff's channel they come up not as new shows, that would set off alerts, but as shows on the date that he first put them up, days or weeks later. Jeff doesn't get the hits for a new show nor do fans of the talent see them unless they go thru Jeff's playlist Or do a search. As per your show it was the Dragon that got blocked. Amy's sug. show including Dragon also got blocked this week. She did not see it either till I told her. I noticed this recently and hope Jeff feels better soon so I can ask him. It must be a UA-cam error that only he could resolve by calling them? Peruse his playlist, you will find many shows you never saw. He put up a Angelina Jordan vs Diana Audrussia that should have gotten many thousands of hits a few days ago. Nuthing burger for him or fans, shame.
@@THSeaNotes What is even sadder is I notice Jeff has done repeat shows. Amy's Celine vs Dragon Force this past week has been put up before, months ago. I bet it was Amy's suggestion also. All the people that suggest and don't see their show get pissed or resuggest, with the same result. Jeff working his ass off in vain, and disgruntled fans.
@@jeffkerr4861 Jeff should get his son to catalogue all the requests and then checked off when posted. Jeff has a good idea with these battles. I don’t know of anyone that is doing what he is doing.

She’s definitely owning it John!
All of Tina's covers are breathtaking, especially Jason Becker's Altitudes cover,
absolutely masterful !
yeah, especially Altitudes brings me to tears. Wonderful, wonderful rendition!

She came back with her group, Spin Twice from September 1.

She only played 2 guitars on one of the most difficult songs to play at age of 15 - amazing!

I believe she was 15 when she did this. She’s done Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata 3rd movement, which is also amazing. It’s a shame she disappeared.

Also she was 15 when she recorded this.
15 and 11 months or 16 less 1 month.
Fantastica!Ma...se Tina S suona così,il suo insegnante come suonerà?Non oso immaginare...🤪
check out her youtube channel, she is in a band now.
But Tina played the full version of the somg :) by herself

@@0ParisFrance I’ve looked. She is not in my phone book.
Check out her cover of "For The Love Of God" originally done by Steve Vai. Its one of her most beautiful covers.
Got it
She has a band.

i believe "power" metal refers to a genre of nerds who REALLY like dragons and fantasy stuff.
I did not get a notification for this video and every other video I have?
Look above for my comment here.
no, she is not ''playing along the track''... she plays along bass, drums and vocal tracks, while she plays herself two guitars on top of that.
You failed to mention that she was chewing gum, rarely looking at the neck and only 15 years old.
