@@nathanv.4397 exactly. Even Attila said the main first fret bend isn’t a true bend it pitch it’s just shy of it. And dime is already tuned in a weird tuning so as a kid I’m like wtf. Lol
@@TheShreddDude I show students this riff. I'm like you can do it. But the nuances are so intense, very few actually play it w the feels. Isn't it fun af‽
There's a video of Dime giving a lesson on this riff somewhere, he called the bend a "Texan bend" not a full, not a half, just a bit of Texas. Great lesson dude 💪
Attila, just ran across the channel . The tone /sound you’ve captured sounds amazing through my phone speaker I can’t imagine how good it would sound with a good set of cans on. Nice playing and explanation of Walk!

Ha! I’ve actually always played it with the upstrokes because I saw so many videos of Dime playing it that way. I’m nowhere near your level of playing but I’m pretty damn proud of myself for this lol another awesome and informative video 🔥🔥
@@AttilaVorosOfficial all those little nuances are what make it so damn hard to play a Pantera song and make it sound just like Dimebag. He truly was one of a kind. Keep up the good work with these vids! You’re definitely doing Dimebag proud!!
Yeah so I’m glad you made this video because I noticed people doing upstrokes and was wondering If I was seeing things but thanks for the tips this really helps 💜
Dude your videos are amazing and so informative. Very grateful to have somebody that loves dime and spends time making stuff like this for other fans. Getcha pull🤘🤘🤘
Kösziiii!!! Száz éve próbálom már ezt lelesni, hogy hogyan pengeti, de hiába néztem végig az összes youtube dime live videót, sehogy se tudtam pontosan. Köszi!!! O. Csaba
Hey Attila,, why you have electrical tape at the locking nut with a Floyd rose?? Is it cause the emg picks up the pitch of f string (high pitch noise) ?? Cause on my root charvel i get feedback from that ..
Hey man, Not at all! I installed a tremolo block there so in case if I block it, I can tune it without dealing with the floyd, and was just lazy to put back the nut keys or what ... so it's for that kind of ringing that happens much more without those engaged. But regardless I'd put those electrical tapes there to make sure there's no ringing, which can occur even if it's locked (it does more with certain guitars/nuts)
I'd like to say thank you for leaving in the extra noise, playing vs recording needs to be appreciated. On another note, I hope people understand that you can analyze and reproduce but it's also perfectly acceptable to be you while playing a cover. Learning techniques and habits is fine but don't let it define you, because you have habits that others will want to copy. Thanks for reading my mini TED talk
I just saw a video of dime playing walk in his "revolution is my name" days and he played it down, up, up for the main riff. Video on youtube is called: DIMEBAG DARRELL (Pantera) - walk BestMasterGuitar, also in the famous 1993 walk solo tutorial by Dime he does down, up, up after the solo demonstration.
I 've tried some of those, but of course doubted if it was a complete octave, the other issue, was the vibrato..I played that part well too, but....the uppicking was the issue...I never realized upon that...! I think the way you played before, down /upstroke, is great for the change...and the the correct one.. Thks for another great Dime ' s stuff video!!
Thanks man! This guitar has EMG Retro active Hot 70 or Super 77 set in it (don't remember which one to be honest :)). The other one is in my Schecter Dimebolt, and I usually use the same settings for both, so even if there's some difference (which there is), it's not that much. BUT, what I've found really crucial to achive Dime's tones the closest are the followings: - No1: the proper IR - in this case it's Ola's Dimebag IR which I bought via olaenglundshop.com - No2: some graphic EQ in front (before amp) to push the gain. It gives a certain kind of attack plus high ends (on top of adding lots of gain), which helps immensely shaping the tone the right way - No3: pre EQ-ing. This is also a very important step (probably the most important after the cabinet / IR choice). I usually oush it around 300-400, and cut it around 1200-1400, raise it around 3-4000... really depending on the guitar. I will do a proper video on how I do it in the future. Cheerz
@@AttilaVorosOfficial good information! My sh-13 neck pickup sounds just like his clean tone for live 101 cemetery gates actually I was shocked. Cheers!
Dude GORGEOUS Explorer , who makes that? Don’t see many that look that way with a sick top like that. Nice playing to dude, sounds good, I was a teaching my nephew how to play this and yours is one of the few actually accurate lessons, good stuff man
in the chorus riff progression you need to add a lower 4th to the first 2 chords.. a low G on the C chord and a low F on the Bflat chord then play the 3rd chord on the 6th fret on the E string the exact way you play it on the 5th string and then you'll be playing it correctly.. all the other examples are spot on.. also your tuning isn't correct according to Dime's own tech.. He said they tuned to E flat at 445.. I hear it as Standard at 427. Each album has a different tuning so it really is a lot to keep a track of. I did a Pantera tribute band for a long long time and spent a solid year learning and finding out all I could on his note choices.. another song that most play wrong is from Vulgar and the No Good (Attack the Radical)... that one is one of the very few songs in drop D tuning..
thank you it's been 1 year since I picked up the guitar and walk is one of the pieces I wanted to relearn but what I heard by ear didn't fit with the available tablatures
Hey Attila! could you do a Play It Like Dimebag of the Well meet again Solo (Live version) please 🙏🏻 Thats one of my favorites solos of all time. Im from Monterrey México and I would love to see VDOC Live one time, any possibility that you guys came someday?
It’s neural DSP’s Fortin Suite, with I believe a Dimebag IR that Ola did (got that one from olaenglundshop.com) And thanks for the reminder/feedback, I’ll definitely do a “how to dial tone” kinda video. Got some cool ideas, just need to find the time for it! Eventually, probably sooner than later it will happen!
@@AttilaVorosOfficial Thank you for the response brother. Kind of surprised you pulled that kind of tone from the Fortin. Can't wait for the video describing the tone. Also, I'm kind of curious as to what's your evidence on Dime playing the riff with only upstrokes. From what I could tell, on the guitar clinic video, he played the first note with a downstroke and the rest with upstrokes. If you got any video of Dime playing the riff another way I'd sure like to see it. Keep up the content brother, big fan. Cheers from Poland
I wouldn't be surprised if Dime got the bend by pressing toward the fretboard (if you look at your fretting hand when you play a note, you almost never get the string to touch the actual wood when you play a note, the note occurs when the string is depressed between the two metal frets), as opposed to up/down the frets like basically everyone else does. Similar to using a scalloped fretboard, except it's a normal fretboard - at the first fret you have more action to play with..
Finally someone who got it all right, Dime would have said "good ears, dude"! They are playing it wrong all over the internet, even Ola plays the bending riff with a palm mute where it isn`t supposed to be, but no offense Ola, nobody`s perfect.
Nothing wrong with playing the riff by the way the feel it. Dime always played what he felt was right. I believe it is them who say 'their' exact way of playing is 100% are making a false statement :)
@@peacefist4413The reason why this guy sounds more like Dime than any other person banging up poorly conceived covers is because he goes to great pains to uncover close to exactly what Dime was doing, and you have missed this point so hard.
I absolutely love your videos. But I would like to say that the way he actually played it was down on the first not and up on the fretting hick bend Verse: down down up up, down up up down up up, down up up, down up up etc.. Chorus: down down up up, down (up on the chord), down down up up, down (up on the chord) etc. You can see him playing it on the clinic
I don't think it was a bend at all. I think it was a hard press. Like he put his finger in the middle of the fret and pressed down until the string contacted the fret board bringing the pitch slightly high.
az egyik kottád hibás;-) vasárnap blúzolunk ha megmondodmelyik, vagy nem :D mindig szerettem benned, hogy a nuanszokkal foglalkozol, piciségek, amik hatalmas különbséget okoznak :)

It's still wrong, not the half step and upstroke part but it's actually a pre bend, you start with a 1/4 note bend and upstroke then release it with a little vibrato. Dime used upstrokes more than people think, it's sort of like the riff from cowboys, he uses muted upstrokes on the open E & G notes and down strokes on the A power chord to make it sound chunkier.
U want to emphasize everything, especially on the 1-0, like instead of vibrato just pull off on the 1st fret enough for u to flick it to open d w the slightest released bend possible. Like ur almost bending just enough for ur 1st finger to play the open d instead of picking.
You are missing 2 key things.ost importantly than even the up strokes is this he actually picks down alternately out of 4 strokes 1 is down as an example. But the best part is this you should also ad pick scraping on the up strokes he has even said this in his clinics
To my knowledge and ears it's not 432, but 425. And I agree, this is a "big nuance" or at least important when it comes to the sound. was a big game changer when I started to play in these tunings
WALK is the hardest “easy sounding” riff in history.
might be true ;)
It's so simple. But the nuances!

The quarter bends he called "hick bends". He really was 1 of a kind
@@bunky8077 that's it! Thanks man. He truly was, a legend through and through
ended up in the habit of playing it that way because im not that great and don't bend it as much to save time fumbling to the next notes
This riff is so simple but at the same time it is so powerful and devastating... dimebag is a fxckn' god
I've been playing this riff all my life bad, Dime would be proud of your work :) Thank you teacher Atilla !!
My exact sentiments 😅 damn. Hopefully Saint Dime forgives me
I knew I recognized you play in Satyricon. Love their older stuff. Glad I found the channel.
Man, although i play Walk the way you show it correctly, i still finish watching your clip. Very therapeutic to watch your part by part analysis!

That’s the swing and it’s probably the one thing he missed.

When you break it down I hear becoming and so many other riffs that stemmed off this pattern and power cords. Fucking genius
Fantastic lesson 🙏
People to musicians: "Why do you make complicated music, why can't you just make simple music like Pantera?"
The simple music by Pantera:
Wow, sonically accurate roar. Love your ‘tude

The tab on the ending (palm muted) part is incorrect. It shows full E5 power chords where you only play the muted open E string.
Yup, I f-d that up… those in between notes are single notes!
ay yo been playing it right all this time, I guess wearing out the Home Videos vhs paid off

Dear Attila, would you mind checking how Zac its now playing during the tour? That would be really interesting.
The barred chord is actually off the third fret, off the G. Full octave chord played.
I did rethink that, and my bet is that it,s the bass that plays a powerchord that gives that effect. That is how I hear it.

@2:25 when I saw them live Dime played the chords off of the E string
You are missing 2 key things.ost importantly than even the up strokes is this he actually picks down alternately out of 4 strokes 1 is down as an example. But the best part is this you should also ad pick scraping on the up strokes he has even said this in his clinics
So I had it 75% correct... not bad lol.
Killer tone,I hope you will to cover Pantera's We'll meet again from Power Metal album next time,Thanks
Yes, I vote for it , too!
I can't wait it.
up picking
I always played the main riff fine however I thought the song was in drop D.
Pantera did not play in standard tuning 440hz, in fact it is 425 or 432hz (depending albums), that's why nobody can really sound like'em.
To my knowledge and ears it's not 432, but 425. And I agree, this is a "big nuance" or at least important when it comes to the sound. was a big game changer when I started to play in these tunings
🤘🏻🤘🏻
I think the last part is more confusing
That's crazy as hell you look a lot like Rex
Can you please do Cowboys from hell. I've seen it played a different way to the normal tabs and believe most of the tabs are wrong.
Did a full video on that main riff;)
