Sorry to hear about your brother. I lost my father the same year, this song always reminds me of him. Thanks you for sharing this, greetings from Argentina! God bless you!

True talent, especially you put your own little twist in that solo, that was beautiful. That would go great in the real song. My condolences go out to you because of your brother.
Nice feel and vibrato. I also like your note selection. That solo has a lot of feel to it. You pull it off nicely. You can't go wrong learning Syn Gates solos.
Alda yn I know you say you like Avenged Sevenfold song , but I dont know you love guitar too xD . I found out you doing cover on youtube , nice song and voice by the way , youtubers wannabe ? 😆
A cover that actually got me all choked up. Because of what you're doing it for... Plus the song itself. This really is a sad song. I cry every time. I should learn this song and do it for my grandpa.
I feel the pain when is playing, I lost my brother also. Me and stayed through the rough parts of our life. The solo speaks amd has emotion has every great guitarist should have. Much love my friend
Sustainiac really takes this cover to the next level, remember watching it back in 2014, still the best ive heard of the song, congratulations, more than 10 years have passed since your loss, I hope you are doing better these days
Im really sorry about your brother and it was really nice that you added your solo in the song and then played the solo in the song and that's respect man. also great cover man keep it up
Bro this sounds amazing! I was missing a few nites trying to play it by ear your video definitely helped clear it up but kudos on making it your own style! Keep rocking man
Awesome cover man. Avenged Sevenfold really helped me through a really tough time with the passing of my dad. And exactly 10 days later Jimmy passed. I'm sorry about your brother. I know how it feels to lose a best friend. Good cover man, keep it up.

Bro, its so simple, but at the same time, so complicated cuz u added more stuffs of ur own, and thats the magic of it, thats why u r my fav cover of this song... even tho he doesnt grab correctly the pick, he did an amazing work... and thats impressive, even syn himself didnt grab correctly the pick back in his times jaja... all im saying is that, at his own ways, this boy made an absolutely impressive work here, and thats the most beautiful part of this, not the song itself, but the way this man play it... theres more that u guys can see 😊👌🏻
No wonder my brother love this song so much It's getting to my soul now i know how's he feels since he suffer from the losts of love one .Btw superb cover
+TheIcefreeze i guess no one wants to be rhythm guitarist lol no offense to zacky. it is pretty sad i bought 2 syn customs before even considering zacky signature..
Hey justin, i really want to know how to learn that solo you made, since i heard this. whenever i play it on my guitar i feel like it's permanatly part of the song and im missing something. i would like a video or a reply on how to play it. oh and great job man.

+Justin Moreno He doesnt always play rhythm he plays some really sick duo guitar solos
TheIcefreeze Yeppp I know this lol, but he's still the rhythm guitarist.
+Justin Moreno
Both have lead parts and rhythm parts, they tend to split and switch each song.
+Justin Moreno why would you need to guitars
Le enseño la canción a mi hermano de 10 años, me hiciste reflexionar amigo , gracias , siento mucho lo de tu hermano , sigue adelante :')
wow.. its awesome.. and love it..
