Almost two years ago since this. Where are U ,Sir? Searching for new covers bit can't find any,,😲 haven't heard anything from U in a loong time,,,something's wrong on the ' tube!!
awesome. have a look at my video only been playing properly 9 months. 14 lessons. will be able like this eventually. Maiden have been my favourite for 23 years.
Thanks! The guitar is a 2007 Ibanez RGT42DX heavily modified by yours truly. I bought it used on Ebay, redid all the electronics with EMG stuff, moved the volume knob out of the way, binned the tone control altogether, and replaced the blade switch with a 3 way toggle. Then I covered all the holes I drilled with an aftermarket pick guard! More recently, I used this same guitar in the 7th Son of a 7th Son video, but it now has a pink pickguard, which was made by my father.
Graham Ferguson Thank you Graham! Yes I have a very complicated illness (I was totally paralized and had a serious brain operation two years ago),sometimes it doesn't disturbe me too much, but sometimes it causes a lot of pain. It depends on the weather, too. But let me forget it now, it's surely boring for most of the people. Let's talk about you! I forgot to speak about the perfect rhythm that you can keep along the songs. I know that your gear /technique helpes you, but you have to have a very good sense of rhythm. It's important for all the musicians. (And very useful for several other things in life -f.e.dancing, learning languages.. Etc.) 😉 And you get the exact sound of the songs, that is why you are better than most of the other coverers, we have plenty of terrible covers on RUclips. Thank you for your hard work, we have a lot of fun on it. Greetings from Hungary! Peter
I'm very sorry to hear about your illness, that sounds really awful! If watching my videos takes your mind off the pain for a few minutes, that makes me happy. I wish there was more I could do! Thanks for all your kind words, take care of yourself.
Graham Ferguson Thx, it's very nice of you bro, I realy appriciate it! And you are damn right, your videos help me forget my hard situation. Actionly as the days go by my only fun (in addition to being with my children of course) is listening to my favourite music and watching short videos, not only music clips, but science and cabaret, too. I saw your Helloween covers, it surely means that you like them too. I was a big fan until the Pink bubbles... album. But I think both Keeper albums belong to the best albums in the history of metal music. What is your favourite band? By the way, are you playing in a band? So, it's too late, I gotta go to sleep. Best wishes for you, and thank you again! Péter from Hungary
I love Helloween, I've seen them 3 times, and I will again in September. Many years ago, my friend who taught me to play guitar made a mix tape of Helloween, featuring songs from both the Kiske and Deris eras, so I have always loved both singers equally, and I'm thrilled that they're all out on tour together now!
+Graham Ferguson I was going to suggest you put clips of your work in your IG account. I've posted a couple clips -with all credit to you of course, on my account swamper1960.
+wtglb Oh cool, thanks for passing my videos along! I used to be on facebook, and I'd post them there, but nobody watched them...not even my own family! XD So I was just like "F-this." I think I'll just stick to youtube. I'll check out your page though!
+Graham Ferguson great, although I don't have a ton of followers, many of them are metalheads, so if there's anything you'd like me to post, just let me know
Thanks! It's hard to say, it's been one of my favorite songs for over 20 years! I learned it wrong many times when I was young. Once I finally learned to do my own transcriptions, it probably took one or two sittings.
The accuracy and cleanness of your guitar playing always amaze me!!!
Great cover!!!!
+luispower1979 Thank you very much! I work very hard on that, it's nice to know people can hear it.
Он просто никуда не торопится и доигрывает все ноты
👍
Thank you very much!
never understood why emg pickups get grief from the guitar snobs. they sound great. I like mostly 80s rock and metal. they are great for that.
People like what they like I guess! I use EMGs for everything
It's absolutely fantastic ,, as anything from you, sir . Just sit back and enjoy the show .
+Micke Eriksson Thank you sir, nice hearing from you again!
Perfect
Thank you Sally! First comment of the year, and it's a positive one, I appreciate that!
Another anazing cover! One of my favourite songs ever.
+Ондатер Thank you very much! It's probably my favorite Maiden song as well.
Almost two years ago since this. Where are U ,Sir? Searching for new covers bit can't find any,,😲 haven't heard anything from U in a loong time,,,something's wrong on the ' tube!!

Was just listening to this song and stumbled upon your cover. Glorious as always, old friend. :)
Thank you my friend! It's so good to hear from you, how are you? Send me a message!
Can you miss any note?, holly shit, watching over and over also where the rain grows, its like watching how they record the RECORD!
Thank you! I try to do them justice.
That's a great cover. Bravo dude.

+prowler74 I can help you, but not for free
Excellent Graham! Do you have an Instagram account by any chance?
+wtglb Thanks! No I only have youtube and googley plus, the latter of which I completely ignore. Why do you ask?

Incredible playing how long it takes to learn this song?
Thanks! It's hard to say, it's been one of my favorite songs for over 20 years! I learned it wrong many times when I was young. Once I finally learned to do my own transcriptions, it probably took one or two sittings.
