Thank you :) If you're talking about the yellow, I was using that to learn my fretboard so I cut up post it notes and placed them on all of my frets up to 12 lol But otherwise the inlay is abalone and I got the guitar from Charvel and it's one of the Desolation models :)
+Brian Noel That post it -thingie looks so epic. It's original, at least! If you feel like taking requests: Birth By Sleep - Black Powder. Simple, but I'm sure you could make it super awesome, like you always do!
No way, you somehow ruined the already amazing original for me, I don't think I can go back now. You continue to amaze Brian. oh, also happy new years, hope you only grow larger next year!
I saw up until "the" on my phone notification so I got a little depressed lol Sorry for ruining the original! And thanks for the wish :) It means a lot to me :)
+Brian Noel it's all good man, every time you release a song I just instinctually open UA-cam to MP3 now, I was suprised this time though as I didn't think this song would lend itself well to metal, but once again you proved me wrong.
Well that's really good to hear :) At first I was having a hard time getting everything to sound warm and full, but after about a month of working on this I feel like the effort I put in was worth it :) If you haven't heard sasukeshika's version, I recommend it cause it's one of my favorite remixes from him :)
I'll admit that the XIII games are pretty much about as bland as it gets gameplay wise, but the music is pretty damn good still. Love this cover, and have a Happy New Years, good sir.
This cover is absolutely amazing. You should think of doing something with the video though. After all, it is youtube, so having something eye-catching is kinda needed. You should look into recording the multiple parts and cutting to a different feed every so often. That way there aren't those moments when you're standing there waiting to dive into your next lead part. Just something to think about. Great job on the music though!
Thank you! That's actually a really good idea :) I just do it this way so I don't have to worry about editing the video so I can get things uploaded quickly, but I'll try that out in future covers :) Thanks for the advice! I'm always looking to get better so I really appreciate it :)
Quality over quantity my friend. Putting out excellent videos will attract a better viewerbase than putting out a lot of videos. Also, I'm studying film production, and need something for practice, so if you want to focus on the music side, maybe I could do the editing. Just a thought
That sounds accurate! As long as it's not a burden, that would be sweet! If you send me a P.M. with your email, I send my videos your way once I'm done with them :)
+Kaname Kuran Thank you :) And unfortunately not :/ If I get more time, I'll tab out the guitar parts in my future releases, but no guarantees :/ Sorry!
I will :) I actually meant to reply earlier, but I've just been stressed lately, but I do read all comments almost immediately, but I don't always respond quickly
Yeah no problem! Be careful with XIII-2 because I got that one and I can't even run it cause it's so buggy. And you should try doing a track from Final Fantasy VIII! *cough* The Man with the Machine Gun *cough* I can't wait to hear what else you have in store.
Holy crap the guitar is so perfect for this song. Loving it dude!
Blinded by metal confirmed.
Thanks man! I recorded the guitar parts about 200 times to get it perfect! Glad you noticed!
Omg dude it is amazing!! I was checking almost every week for new updates haha You impress me every time! Keep going :D -starts downloading it-
Thanks! And sorry for the long wait! I'm happy to know you check every once in a while :)
Awesome cover! Blinded by Light is an amazing track.
+Ronldbx6 Thank you :) And it really is!
This is exactly what I needed for this day. Happy new year, and thanks for this gift :) .
You're totally welcome dude! Happy New Years!
amazing cover of one of my favorite battle themes. thank you!
You are so welcome :)
Before I play the video...Happy new years bro! Edit: Ummm... I never really played Final Fantasy 13 but this sounds dank XD
Happy New Years man! To be honest I never finished Final Fantasy XIII, but I loved the soundtrack!
Awesome work once again! Gotta love that inlay on your fretboard. Is it a custom one?

Thanks haha! To be honest, it didn't really help me learn my fretboad, but I tried lol And I'll see what I can do :)
I don't think I've seen anyone cover this yet. Sounds great! Happy New Year buddy
Sasukeshika did a cover a while back that's worth a listen :) and thank you! Happy New Years man!

+Brian Noel never heard of him, I guess I'll check t out
He's actually the one who got me into doing covers :)
Awesome cover from FF13! Love your work!
+kairili Thank you :) I'm happy to hear that!
HELLS YEAH DUDE THIS IS GREAT im excited for the next one
Get it cuz excited waffles....yeah no one laughed did they
+Excited Waffles I did on the inside lol
I'll admit that the XIII games are pretty much about as bland as it gets gameplay wise, but the music is pretty damn good still. Love this cover, and have a Happy New Years, good sir.
Yeah XIII wasn't so good compared to the other titles, but the music was definitely the best part! Happy New Years to you as well :)
How did i miss this?? Brilliant cover dude (: if only they could replace the original with this version
Thanks man 😃 I'm sure there's a way but it's probably not easy!

Thank you :)
Brian N You're welcome! :)
awesome as always do you have a channel where you have tabbing for some of your work
+Kaname Kuran Thank you :) And unfortunately not :/ If I get more time, I'll tab out the guitar parts in my future releases, but no guarantees :/ Sorry!
Thanks man awesome feedback time as well keep it up dude
I will :) I actually meant to reply earlier, but I've just been stressed lately, but I do read all comments almost immediately, but I don't always respond quickly
Awesome *0*
+Isabela Alves Thank you :)
OK this can't be FF13
The sound style feels like final boss of Kingdom heart
But it perfect for Xemnas battle
Really? It's definitely from FFXIII lol but yeah it would go well with a Xemnas battle :)
Tabs
I personally loved XIII, I just didn't like the sequels beside their music. This piece is awesome though!
+Leo Luna I haven't played the sequels yet, but I might since they're on steam :) Haven't heard their soundtracks though :/ And thanks man :)

+Leo Luna We'll see how that turns out :) And I tried to do that a while ago, but my guitar skills weren't good enough but maybe now they are :)
