Rivers of Nihil - 'Clean' (Solo Cover) (TAB IN DESCRIPTION)
Rivers of Nihil released the first single from their new album yesterday, and it features a great solo by Brody Uttley, which I obviously had to transcribe straight away. I'm in drop-A here, so if you want to pay it in RoN's tuning then tune down three semitones and move everything up three frets. It feels like a lot of his influences (I'm guessing); lots of Gilmour, some Petrucci and a flash of Zakk Wylde at the end there. There's definitely plenty of Brody's style in there, particularly that intervallic lick towards the end.
Gear used was an Ibanez RG1527 (in drop-A), into a Kemper using Brody's 'A Home Solo' profile.
EDIT - Finally got a new keyboard, and got to watch Brody playing this...

'Vetiver' (Michael Watts)

Playthrough of Michael Watts' gorgeous piece 'Vetiver' form the album of the same name. I love the huge chasmic spaces in this piece, presumably designed to allow the beautiful guitars he plays the space to breathe.

It’s still JUST December, so this tune must be appropriate right? Nail breakages, plus Tony Rice’s sad passing on Christmas Day, pushed me to practise some bluegrass picking the past few days. Good lord this was a workout... Also gave me a chance to try out the Lowden strings Cate got me for Christmas! #ebenezerguitar #oldebenezerscrooge #sierrahull #bluegrassguitar #martinguitar #lowdenstrings...

‘Clarity’ - Protest The Hero Guitar Playthrough

😰 I had planned to record an acoustic EP when lockdown happened, but got burnt out and disillusioned with it, so started playing metal riffs for fun. Eventually decided to challenge myself and get all the way through this absolute monster. Sweep picking, multi-finger tapping, economy picking, alt-picked arpeggios, random 9/8 and 13/16 bars, very little repetition and it’s damn quick. Back to ac...
The Human Abstract - Elegiac

The opening track from one of my favourite albums (Digital Veil, by The Human Abstract). I recently tuned my old squier strat down to Drop C for fun, and over the past couple of days I've had the idea of recording this gorgeous piece. A.J. Minette (who wrote the majority of the album AFAIK) has said that much of it was written away from the guitar, with a string quartet in mind. This approach g...
Lockdown Lick #3 - Diatonic Semitones
Просмотров 1814 года назад
Thought I’d do a melodic soloing concept video for my third Lockdown Lick. This is something I do all the time (sorry everyone I play with), playing two notes on different strings, a semitone apart to create tension and dissonance without playing any outside (or non-diatonic) notes. Bonus points for anyone who can spot what song the drum groove is knicked from! Electro-Harmonix Soul Food Kemper...

Some of my favourite Tony McManus arrangements of Irish tunes to play for St Patrick’s Day! It’s been a hectic time and I’ve not had much time to work on new things, so this is recycled content, warts and all! Port na pBucai is one of my favourite airs to play, supposedly inspired by whalesong (thought to be faeries) heard by fishermen off the Blasket Islands. Fergus the westie refused to star ...

    Wonderful man, very nicely done. I've worked through a couple of Wake's songs from The Celticist tab book. I want to tackle this one for an event I'm playing next month. Can you make any other recommendations for artists that play in a similar DADGAD/Orkney Tuning style? Sweet Lowden, by the way. I'd love to get my hands on one. I recently got to play around with the same Larrivee that Wake uses. Great instrument, and a surprisingly humble guitar for a player on his level I think!
