Excellent Work! I've been playing this song Live since the late 80's and never really took the time to Overstand all of the parts... This is a GREAT Tutorial!
if I didn't see you do this.....I'd have said it was impossible. Thanks so much for taking the time/patience to detail this very important showcase in Vernon Reid's style.
There is a lot of good guitar solos out there there are a lot of great ones this might be the greatest and this cover is bloody incredible I kind of can't believe someone could even make that much less replicate it much less play it better possibly than the original... my hat is off to you
Tenosynovitis took away my biggest passion in life. Surgery on Sept 26th. Wish me luck! Hope I can get back to the game soon. Take care of your digits! Stretch regularly and warm up properly.
@@Davidian_ At this point I am not 100% sure. It seems more like a consequence of a finger injury while changing brake rotors. I got a metal splinter that got badly infected, and things went slowly downhill from there. My middle finger started getting stuck months after that event. I didn't make much of it, but it got progressively worse over the span of a year. The more I played the guitar the worse the inflammation got. After a while I couldn't flex it at all. I am under a bit of relief at the moment with a steroid shot, but I am afraid the problem may not be fully addressed yet.
Damn hope you get back in the game soon brother I’m sorry to hear that mate. You killed this solo note for note. Can I ask how long it took you to learn it? Im no expert like it seems you are but I can play difficult solos but this is my most difficult one yet. Hope you feel soon better mate! Thanks
@@Progmium titled it "mera guitar for progmium"! Has Lace Alumitone and Deathbucker pickups in it! They sound mediocre on my fender prosonic amp, and FEROCIOUS on my Hughes and Kettner Triamp Mark3. I guess that's the difference between a $700 amp and a $4000 one lol!
@@Progmium and "mera guitar with lace pickups tone" sound clip video! Just a quick a pentatonic scale into a jazz chord so you can hear it! Super MEAN sounding! Really rich and full. That guitar and those pickups are running through a line 6 Helix floor (with a marshall Jubilee sound imprint) and then into my Hughes & Kettner triamp mark3.
Thanks! In retrospect, yeah it was the worst year ever for us but, even then, that would be a relative assumption. Let's hope for better days ahead! :-)
Perseverance is a bitch but it pays off. You can certainly do it. I started right at zero like everyone else. The key is to learn not to tense up while playing. That comes from relentless repetition at slow speeds and working your way up with a metronome. A light touch on the fretting hand can go a long way, so it is important to set a low string action.
Oscar Mata Great question! I don’t know but perhaps from trying to emulate fast players for the last 20+ years. One thing that works for me is to run fast passages in short bursts of speed and increment the length of the bursts as you get the material programmed into muscle memory. A lot of patience can come in handy as well. This stuff sure doesn’t happen overnight.
Very kind! Thanks! Can't remember at this point but I recall maybe a week or two to attempt the first cover. But the technique to be able to play this I am not so sure. Been playing for 25 years now (23 at the time). Lot of John Petrucci, Yngwie Malmsteen, and Guthrie Govan surely helped build this kind of stamina over the years.
Good Lord man, I was expecting to see smoke and fire coming from the fretboard!!
that my friends is some badass shredding
thats good, you fit that little jazz scale in there, and many people don't.
Holy crap that's some serious speed & accuracy
Very nicely done. Better than he does it live, at least the live versions I've seen.
Those a Schecter Super Shredders play like a dream.
Awesome! Best cover of this solo I've seen.
Glad you liked it!
Nice brother..

Glad it helps!
I hope you understand what you showed us... extraordinair, not from this earth, fantabulastic and absolute perfect, great job bro!

Awesome Brother
My respect, wonderful cover…
I just don't know how this is humanly possible
Amazing...
Dude, This is out of this world
There is a lot of good guitar solos out there there are a lot of great ones this might be the greatest and this cover is bloody incredible I kind of can't believe someone could even make that much less replicate it much less play it better possibly than the original... my hat is off to you
RESPECT

Excellent work sir!!!
* polite clap *

Respectable!!
Seventh solo segment is similar to ZZ TOP “Tush”. Ima lookinna that. Great vid, too fast for my crooked ol’ dedos.

Best of luck. Did overplaying give you the condition?

Epic.
John Smith! Sorry, I saw your comment but I had uploaded the wrong video and had to delete it. It was missing a part of the solo.
It's all good, just wanted to say that your playing was great
John Smith Thank you kindly!
nicely done, your video just had one final flaw. you said happy new year to 2020
Thanks! In retrospect, yeah it was the worst year ever for us but, even then, that would be a relative assumption. Let's hope for better days ahead! :-)
What’s best is the enormous amount of straight picking ......and not so much hammer on sand pull offs
JESUS!
Berynfucking good
holy shit
Holy WTF Batman
Incredible man , way...... better than Vernon
How long have you been playing for man that is absolutely badass
Thanks! 25 years now...man I'm getting really old!
Uh...there's NO WAY I can move my fingers that fast!!

Sounds like a machine gun 👍👍👍
Good Job 👍👍👍.....

¿How did you get that speed?

How long did it take to do it so professionally?
Very kind! Thanks! Can't remember at this point but I recall maybe a week or two to attempt the first cover. But the technique to be able to play this I am not so sure. Been playing for 25 years now (23 at the time). Lot of John Petrucci, Yngwie Malmsteen, and Guthrie Govan surely helped build this kind of stamina over the years.
Are there any tabs for this?
How long have you been playing?
At least 30.
Too much metal, not enough soul...
Yeah, it is not for everyone.
