    My humble attempt at this insane song! Don't worry about the tempo when you try this. I had to adjust my expectations too, as Tommy plays it more than 30 bpm faster than this... It will take most of us (including me) years to even get close. If you are looking for a technique building song, this is one should very high on your list!
    Guitar used:
    Mayson MS7, Standard Tuning
    Recording: a pair of Neumann 184's through an Apogee Quartet

    Wow. Amazing! I'm pretty sure that's what Tommy eats for breakfast every morning. Well done Tim 🎉

      My digital conscience has signed in 😅 I recorded the covers/Soundslice takes for this along with Doc's Guitar and Blue Smoke in one sitting. I won't specify the amount of sugar and caffeine it took, but a Coca Cola sponsor deal is likely in the next few days 🤓

    Even at 0.75x speed it still sounds menacing! Impressive work, Tim!

      You mean I spent all this time to get it faster just to have people play it at 75%?? 😅🤣 I could have saved myself so much time!

    Tim do you ever play shows?
    I'd love a video where you talk about how you started out playing and how you got to where you are now. How old were you when you started playing? When did you realize it was a passion etc.

    • @TimVanRoy
      @TimVanRoy  5 месяцев назад +3

      Thanks Jim! I used to be quite a busy freelance player, but nowadays the channel and video lessons are eating up almost all of my time (I'm also holding down a regular teaching job and I have two small kids). There are some changes on the horizon and I hope to be able to start playing live more again soon!

    I actually know how to play this song, in my opinion this is harder than luttrell, mr sandman and many others, especially at this speed. It was a huge sense of achievement when I learned the entire thing.

    • @TimVanRoy
      @TimVanRoy  5 месяцев назад

      Exactly! However, for me that alternate picked run in the middle of Luttrell will always be the "Tommy-lick" I fear most!

      Скорость усложняет задачу, но остальные части выучить не так уж и сложно... как это часто бывает с Томми: чем быстрее песня, тем проще основы. Но это не значит, что скорость дается легко!
