Lol, people saying he doesn't got shit on Dimebag, well did he fucking said he did? Geez, he mentions Dime and how he learned it from listening to Pantera records and you start talking shit? Seriously, chill.
Yeah but def not how dime does it not even close if you compare their tutorials and correct me if im wrong but i think the word he was looking for was sustain
You gotta have your strings loose for the sustain when you catch thr harmonic he can barely keep it going over 2-3 seconds hes fingering the harmonic #1 this does not require a pick
whatever man... I can listen to A7X all day long and not get bored and still soil my pants when listening to syn... he is some kind of animal when it comes into playing guitar and A7X IS THE BEST FUCKING BAND EVER!!!!!!
Some tremolos can do dive-bombs as long as they can go both down and upwards but generally a floyd Rose is best because the strings won't break as the bridge is flush with the body
@thatonekidd111 This was the first syn custom model. The invaders are the original ones, not the ones with metallic pole pieces. And its a bolt on neck. AND!! There is a deathbat, look at the headstock (;
i have a jackson dinky and it has a licensed floyd rose on it...as long as its locked it stays intune pretty well, i guess it depends on the trem system
it's a special technique in which you slightly touch the string with your finger (which finger varies depending on the person(I use my pick thumb)) while playing it so it sounds different. search: "artificial harmonic" for more details.
Contrary to popular belief Dimebag didn't invent that harmonic squeal, Eddie Van Halen and Joe Satriani were doing it long before Dime, only because of Dime's death has his name been credited to it. Dime said himself it was Eddie Van Halen that he got the technique from. Although when Dime did it, it sounded freaking awesome.
@iorost No, if u know how.u need to have the floyd allways up and change tone or strings.First 2 times ihave change strings it puts me crazy but now its very easy.And floyd is really better than tremolo.
@fadetoblack1290 This guy could be the king of guitar of this gen.You've gotta give some respect for this rising musician.I bet this guy can make riffs that even Rhoads can't.Not that I'm saying Rhoads is outta the league,but Gates is really skilled.
@psyboyboy Do you know how hard it is to actually sweep pick and play as fast as he does? I don't think he's masking any mistakes at all, you can quite clearly hear him make string noise dude
Haha i love it..people hate on syn and then say that so and so is soo much better and more hardcore. when in fact the person they named just plays super fast scales, and has no originality, or creativity in their playing. which is why, syn will go down as one of the best and most influential guitaists of his time, if not all time. A7x foREVer. :)
wrong, actually in the video he doesn't have the sustainiac. its only the newest model that has it. he is just using the floyd to do dive bombs, and he was really good before teh sustainaic.
What do u mean barley remeber his own songs, me and alot of other ppl that play guitar cant remember every note of the top of ur head. Especially when he has so many songs.

''I don't know if that's how it is on the album but that's how it's done now'' xD
Danny Roy z everytime they performed this live he played it that way 😂😂
Does he even know how much of a legend he is?
I think he learned about his lendary staus a couple years later. He has been a beast since i first heard him well before this time period
why so much hate? Dimebag was his inspiration so of course hes going to learn how to dive bomb.
"I don't know if that's how it's done on the album, but that's how it's done now." Good one Synyster.
Lol, people saying he doesn't got shit on Dimebag, well did he fucking said he did? Geez, he mentions Dime and how he learned it from listening to Pantera records and you start talking shit? Seriously, chill.
Dime actually flicks the string with the bar down. Then catches the harmonic so no he does not have shit on dime
Yeah but def not how dime does it not even close if you compare their tutorials and correct me if im wrong but i think the word he was looking for was sustain
Yeah watch it the dumping of the bar is a big part synyster should have watched the tutorial
You gotta have your strings loose for the sustain when you catch thr harmonic he can barely keep it going over 2-3 seconds hes fingering the harmonic #1 this does not require a pick
***** these ones take no skill at all easy as hell to do try dimes way it will take a bit
syn gates is the best best best guitarist out there and he really deserves all the awards he's got!!
that was amazing and hes the only one in the world who could forget how to play his own song but we still love him
that "trick" should be re-named as DIME BOMB.
1:35 is a freaking magical sound ever
whatever man... I can listen to A7X all day long and not get bored and still soil my pants when listening to syn... he is some kind of animal when it comes into playing guitar and A7X IS THE BEST FUCKING BAND EVER!!!!!!
I'm glad he's humble enough to learn from Dime. He could play like no one else. RIP
Damn… I just clicked for the "11 years ago"… this might be one of the oldest videos on RUclips… >.>
13 years ago now...
definitely up there. youtube started in 05 i think? so its within that first year for sure. feelin old
14 years ago now...
Dimebag darrell, he is a real kick ass guitarrist
was
Throwback to when Syn was buff lol
that's what makes him so great. people like you trying to put him down, but he always comes out on top, even after death. Go dime.
the sound he makes with the harmonics and tremelo
Synister is so chill!!!!
Syn + The Rev + Rody Walker (Protest the Hero) = My TOTAL Musical Inspiration!!!
dive bombs and raises are sooo fun with tremolo!!!! Syn owns this one
Some tremolos can do dive-bombs as long as they can go both down and upwards but generally a floyd Rose is best because the strings won't break as the bridge is flush with the body
@thatonekidd111 This was the first syn custom model. The invaders are the original ones, not the ones with metallic pole pieces. And its a bolt on neck. AND!! There is a deathbat, look at the headstock (;
GEEZ I LOVE SYN, i thought he was gonna ripp off the whammy wen he used it!
Falling in reverse feat syn gates fucking epic
"i don't know if thats how it is on the album but thats how its done now!" LOL Syn you rock!
dude syns freakin awesome. not even just at guitar but just in general
lmfaoooooo.
"i don't know if that's how it's done on the album but that's how it's done now."
Dime Bomb... :|
yes you could like all those harmonics and dive bombs like synyster does
How does his sustain for long?
sustain pickups
+James Zropikski he doesn't have sustain pickups installed on that guitar
+HoVGraphite then i dont know xD maybe the amp or something like that
Probably amp feedback. I know a bunch of artists who use Feedback to drive their sustain
+Kevin V The Floyd Rose doesn't make the note sustain longer.
"i dont know if thats how it is on the album but thats how its done now"
hahaha hes great :]
Exactly... Someone needs to teach him that you don't start with the harmonic, but catch one on the release.
i have a jackson dinky and it has a licensed floyd rose on it...as long as its locked it stays intune pretty well, i guess it depends on the trem system
it's a special technique in which you slightly touch the string with your finger (which finger varies depending on the person(I use my pick thumb)) while playing it so it sounds different.

Although when Dime did it, it sounded freaking awesome.
I use a Schecter C1 Classic and Line 6 Spider II amp, can't go wrong with that for an A7X sound.
damn
thats awsome
but is it only some guitars where you can make the pitch higher with the whammy bar instead of lower or can all of them do it?
@stigno89 Yes it is, it's a natural harmonic on 2nd or 3rd fret, they sound awesome when you dive 'em =D
Syn... Dime would be proud
@Gibsonsgman1214 hes not overrated...hes just...metal flashiest gun
does this guy not use a string dampener like Michael Angelo Batio does? it really sounds like it on the solo to Afterlife
"I don't know it that's how it is on the album, but that's how its done now" he says. rofl
actually dime flicks the g string, the drops it, and pulls a harmonic on the way up
"I dont know if thats how its done on the album, but thats how its done NOW" haha nice one xD
what do you mean by flick? Hit it with the nail ...or quickly take the finger off the string?
Search "dive bomb" and this video is in the top!
What is the difference between his standard guitar and his custom guitar???
"Note span thing...whatever you wanna....you know like note span length..."
Very technical playing abilities eh?
synster is a awesome guy fuckin respectin dime thts wat its all bout metal4life
alright sweet dude....thats how i thought it was supposed to go but i wasnt sure ummm what is an artificial harmonic tho?
3 years? wtf syn!!! hez ben divebombs since waking the fallen
@iorost No, if u know how.u need to have the floyd allways up and change tone or strings.First 2 times ihave change strings it puts me crazy but now its very easy.And floyd is really better than tremolo.
what strings and frets are used at the beast and the harlot dive bombs?
all them.
@fadetoblack1290 This guy could be the king of guitar of this gen.You've gotta give some respect for this rising musician.I bet this guy can make riffs that even Rhoads can't.Not that I'm saying Rhoads is outta the league,but Gates is really skilled.
So basically do a pinch harmonic and gently pull up on the trem, assuming you have a tremolo bar.
@marlon2489 Syn uses natural harmonics here I'm afraid.
everytime you want to try something new u cant because it's alwsys and upgarde of your guitar and ur just like DAMN TI!!
if syn was a bunny he will be an awsome bunny
Syn is an amazinggggggggggg guitar player! he is fucking awesome!!!!!!!!!!
*oh wait i cant remember that part* *speedy run through Beast and Harlot intro* idk if thats how it is on the record but thats how it is now
okay sorry i've havent realy heard any of those bands but i'll try and check some of them out.
@psyboyboy Do you know how hard it is to actually sweep pick and play as fast as he does?
I don't think he's masking any mistakes at all, you can quite clearly hear him make string noise dude
I remember looking up how to dive bomb in high school watching this video 😂 gosh to be 16 again 😅
Hahaha...I love how he says "I don't know if that's how it is on the album...but that's how it's done now."
That's definitely something I would do...
sounds like a dieing chainsaw
A7X in general = cream
You say that like he's made awesome songs.
Haha i love it..people hate on syn and then say that so and so is soo much better and more hardcore. when in fact the person they named just plays super fast scales, and has no originality, or creativity in their playing. which is why, syn will go down as one of the best and most influential guitaists of his time, if not all time.
A7x foREVer. :)
anyone notice that his guitar has a deathbat on the headstock instead of the skull w/ a tophat?
idk if thats how it is on the album but thats how its done now :]
so is he using a pinched harmonic or a natural harmonic?
I still don´t get how he is able to play a note for such a long time
THe word he was trying to say was sustain.
@Juankinator Not yet, since I've only been playing for a little over a year, but at least I know terminology for guitars.
syn was trying to be brittish at the beginning, when he said "totaly totaly"
@nextopan2 dime`s way how do you say that the dimebag way or style is the better that i hear
lmao hes so stoned in this vid. thats great i'm watching a vid where my guitar idol is stoned outta his mind.
he was under pressure in front of a camera crew
lol i just paused the video 27 seconds in.... synyster gates is like "SHUT THE HELL UP" when that guy just keeps rambling on hahaha
i used to rip on ppl who didnt know theory, but then i realised it doesnt matter, its all for the love of music & having fun
not a big fan of avenge sevenfold but hes a pretty cool guitarist. lots of style and just a cool guy
in what fret and string do you do the dive bomb
wrong, actually in the video he doesn't have the sustainiac. its only the newest model that has it. he is just using the floyd to do dive bombs, and he was really good before teh sustainaic.
he has a life. that's one thing.
no disrespect to dime
they should have got kirk hammet to do this
he is a whammy bar god
synster is good too though
@hydralisk3313 and wich one you find better? syn or dime bombs?
i just typed in dive bomb cause i wanna know how to do it better, mine cut off. and i was going through a few videos
@Gowalingla you can but , you your guitar will be detuned or in teh worse , one string broken.
I dont know if that hows it the album but thats how its done now.
No, because guitars like gibson's have tensioned headstocks on them and 1 big dive-bomb could mess it up, so not all guitars.
What do u mean barley remeber his own songs, me and alot of other ppl that play guitar cant remember every note of the top of ur head. Especially when he has so many songs.
Yeah, the production model isn't the same as Syn's real Avenger. His has different pickups, and 25 frets, plus that kind of lettering.
Satan, It's a natural harmonic with loads of tremolo bar action. Thats basicly what dive bombs are :)
@kathy12399 artificial and pinch harmonics are the same thing, just different names
He's not stoned. Come on kids, quit thinking every one of your heroes is stoned in every video.
@alonking10 if syn was a bunny the bunny would die because the bunny wouldn't be able to handle such awesomeness.
his dad is the guitar guy in the jeff dunham show
RIP Dimebag...
amazing! love synyster gates
it's funny how syn says TOTALLY with a accent because that guy has a accent
or at least i thought i heard it XD
syn needs some more signature guitars
