  • Hey guys,
    This is my cover of Fade to Black by Metallica. This song is without a doubt one of the classics that Metallica has put out, later spawning songs such as One and The Day That Never Comes. The intro solo could be one of the most recognized solos of all time!
    Guitars were recorded a 1/4 step up.
    Enjoy!

    We played this song at my girlfriends funeral. Lost her in a car accident... I miss her for every minute that passes by every day. This was the ONLY ”metal” song she ever listened to and really liked.
    Miss U Vanessa, will love you forever and ever❤️

    • @IGrocker
      @IGrocker 8 лет назад

      E# would be a 1/2 step up, so a 1/4 step up is right in between the two. It's tough to tune to with some tuners, so you mostly just have to use your ear!

      well if your going to criticize it for sounding like its supposed to sound then your just dumb for that and if you don't like it then that's not really anyones fault except yours some people prefer bullshit sounds like you do and some like things to sound good like me so take that dude.

    • @Suriner1
      @Suriner1 10 лет назад +6

      MrGamer1014 I don't think you understand my point of view and my opinion. I'll try to explain it better.
      What I mean is that if you want a carbon copy of the song, you might as well listen to the original, it's much better.
      What's interesting about a cover is what the person who does it brings to it and that changes, hopefully positively, the song. It doesn't have to be much, maybe a slight variation to a riff, maybe a different bend during a solo, maybe even a whole different solo, but replaying the same song is not that interesting.
      Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that it's a bad video, but it's just that it could be unique when it's not.

    i'm suprised you don't have a tremolo with this model... anyway I have an Ltd h-351 NT and I really love the sound of it..what you guys would you recommend me for a new amp that doesn't exceed 400$? with a minimum of 50 watt?? thank you in advance

    You would either need a distortion pedal or a footswitch that would allow you to switch between settings on your amplifier.

    i was playing along to your cover and wondering what the fuck is wrong with tuning for like 2 minutes, and then i read the description... anyway thats a nice tone you got there.

    Awesome cover, any particular reason why you did it 1/4 step up? I usually do 1/2 step down for most 'tallica songs I play.
