You can learn a lot from listening to isolated guitar tracks. The guitar doesn't sound as good by itself and uses more high frequencies than you realise, but that's why it sits in the mix so well. On a side note, it's interesting to hear so much low end in John's signal here.
Try using a single speak open back amp, like an old Peavy with some good distortion (like the bandit models), but the trick here is to ADD mids to it, not turn them way down like a lot of players do. Adding mids to your tone will make you cut through mixes so much better and will sound so much better overall.
1:48 - those arpeggios, the harmonics enter followed by the short solo.... pure fucking genius
2:07 gives me chills. Beautiful
One of the most beautiful DT-passages ever!
It`s just harmonics...
So? @@Extol1986
WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT WONDERFUL SOUND AT 1:50
10:07
Best outro ever.
7:07 the best bend of petrucci's career...to die for
but the start of the solo is very sloppy and imprecise....
Agreed! Pretty much came here just to say this. That is how you put emotion into a screaming bend.
@@teeple1877 it is decently put together, but the start at exactly seven minutes is terrible....
@@TheKenjojeshut up. it’s a good solo bud. let’s hear you play it.
@@neb.7210 what does it prove if I could? the subject is how good he played it....
there may be better overall songs out there but this one... i consider it the most beautiful song ever made
Probably one of the most amazing and beautiful guitar tracks I've ever heard in my life for sure brother
Such a hidden gem of a video! Thanks a lot!

6:58 What I would give to have that tone...

Try the triaxis plug-in
Get a Fractal Axe FX-III and have any tone you can dream up.
some of JP's most tasteful solos
9:12 sounds so epic isolated.

Curious, how is this possible? Do you have access to the master tapes?
Love this, but was that a wrong note at 6:19?
