Olly Steele - Waves (ft. Adam Benjamin) - FIRST full guitar cover on YouTube

When I heard this song I immediately knew that I would learn and cover it. It is actually one of the hardest tracks I've ever played. Olly Steele is one of my favorite metal guitarists. His ability to play technical but catchy riffs is mind-blowing.
P.S. I know that the arpeggio riff is played with sweep picking, but I had too little time to train it properly, but in this case alternate picking works well too =)
Recorded with:
Ibanez Q-54
Helix Line 6
Focusrite Clarett +2Pre
Cubaze DAW

[@getreckt2926]

do you have the tab?

[@voidance_guitar]

I've learned it by ear, but now there is a tab on Songsterr. Also, there is an official tab, which you can buy on JTC website.

[@Arijit_On_Strings]

@@voidance_guitar how you learned it by ear?? Can you share some tips?

[@voidance_guitar]

​@@Arijit_On_Strings I just sat there with my guitar, watched the official video slowed down to 0,25 and played the notes that I heard. Then I learned them. It may sound hard, but if you know the basic moves and patterns that Olly uses, it's much easier!
By the way, if you have an official playthrough, then you can watch it and write your own tabs, it will be much faster, easier and accurate to learn songs that way, and if you forget them, you will have your tabs🤘

[@elevenAD]

not bad, little speedy at times but still very good, better than i could do. That guitar is also dope!

[@voidance_guitar]

Thank you dude! I love this guitar too =)
