    One of the most iconic and beloved themes in all of video game music. The speed and the intensity, but the catchy melodies are trademarks of Capcom. And even then, it still stands out from the rest. I've wanted to do this one for years. Great seeing you cover such a good theme. Your guitar playing added much to an already good theme with your own style and the solo you released in Shoryuken fashion was as epic as it could've been!

      I'm glad I could do it justice by you given how big a fan you are of this era of gaming! Definitely tried to keep a balance of enhancing while not ruining the song. And of course I wanted to add that unique solo in on the shoryuken part just like Ken's shoryuken is unique from Ryu's!

    Nice cover well done!! That BTW is my dream guitar the Ibanez prestige RG 5320. Please correct me if I am wrong.

      I played a used one at Guitar Center Tucson last week... it's a damned fine guitar.

      That it is! Great choice in dream guitar. I haven't changed a thing about mine aside from jamming some picks into the trem cavity to block it

      I'm glad you like it! I wasn't sure if it would work, but it was simple enough to transpose one to fit with the other

    This is super creative, and what a HUGE sound you are getting. That tone is something special as you lay down those chunky rhythm's. Then the leads kick in, and my friend, those are some tasty chops as you bring an arcade classic tune to life, and give it a fresh new life. Love it!
