Zakk Wylde On His Influences
HTML-код

- No, this isn't Zakk Wylde under the influence - the legendary metal guitarist sits down with Sweetwater's Nick Bowcott and talks about who has influenced his personal style. And he shares a great tip for any tone-chasing guitarist - if you love a player's style, find out who influenced them, and be sure to get familiar with those influences too.

Weird. I was a teen when Zakk replaced Jake, and I dug him then, but didn’t go over the moon on his playing. Now, 25-plus years later, I’ve come back around to Wylde, and I marvel at just how incredible a talent he is. Sometimes restraint escapes him, of course, but his chops and prolific songcraft is startling. Hail, Zakk.
Jake Lee is much better
Subjective. Been a gigantic Lee fan since BatM, and at his best he’s spectacular, but he’s been less-than-consistent and hugely unproductive for a great many years. Specific to guitar playing, him and Zakk are very different players. And anyway, there’s no way to quantify “better” when two musicians have achieved such a high degree of facility on his instrument.
“Sometimes restraint escapes him...” Understatement of the century.
@@imilf2003 You are out of your mind. You're entitled to your opinion, but what objective evidence do you have to make that statement? What career has Jake had since he left Ozzy? Go ahead... name off everything he's done. Virtually nothing other than Badlands. I love Jake, too, but some people just have no perspective. Find me anything Jake has done that comes close to Zakk's solo on "Darkest Hour." You won't.
@@gkniffen Since when did "restraint" go with rock n' roll, anyway? He can play countless different styles. Some go further off the rails than others, but that's what makes him great. Sometimes a song calls for unbridled insanity. Sometimes it calls for a gentle soul. Nobody can excel at the two extremes better than Zakk.
to bad Dime & Zakk never recorded a disk of tracks together
You mean zakk wylde,rich ward and dimebag ya shame they didnt all throw down on a cd together but yes, zakk wylde did play on rich wards's Fozzy-Wanderlust (Feat, Zakk Wylde) and dimebag's Damageplan - Reborn (Feat. Zakk Wylde)
The reverb is strong with this one
Lmao.. sooo true
I used to love Zakk's tone. He really did allow notes to breath. Now it's machine riffs with tons of delay and every other swooshy pedal he owns. No I can't play like Zakk. And that's ok by me.
@imsuckingwind Zakk Wylde doesn't flub. His playing is the same crap over and over, but he doesn't make mistakes.
So is the talent compared to yours
got that 🤣
Sage words to end this interview: cuz you can always learn somethin' new all the time. "Always, all the time." That's my new motto. Thanks, Zakk!
Agreed, FRANK MARINO is a sadly overlooked Guitar God. Zakk, I miss the days of working on promos for your albums via Spitfire/EagleRock. Your talent is frightening.
Yes he was Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush!!
What a well rounded guitarist! Open minded and humble.
I know Zach is shredd warrior but I like it when it slows down a bit....he's got a killer feel too...which I think is forgotten with him...b/c in these interviews he just shows his lvl 11....but his 3 or 4 is badass too.
His name is spelled Zakk*
That has to drive an interviewer nuts when they're talking to a guitarist who won't stop playing
I hear a lot of what sounds like John Sykes influence with all the vibrato and pinch harmonics in his playing.
Good call brother. Gary Moore, John Sykes and Zakk brought a lot of the chunk back to metal with the Les Paul. No one touches them for their wall of sound on riffs. Especially Sykes on the Blue Murder title track. After Appice's drum intro, that riff is off the charts and amazing blasting loud. Good way to test out systems in Best Buy.
Zakk is a riff God and a "You Know What I mean" Lord SDMF GIFD
@Forty Six That is a bad ass song! Soon as I heard it I started to learn it! Just like first time hearing over the mountain
Living legend , all time great musician.
I think this is the first time I've ever seen him be serious..no sarcasm what so ever. lol
Except when he plays guitar and sings too..
I know what you mean.
Yeah he's usually so annoying in interviews.
He's serious because he know what he's talking about! Trying to teach u something that might help u later in life! Like me, its useful for me.
... as he sits in a horned stocking cap.
i love it when musicians who i love to listen too say who they love listening to or are inspired by. it makes me wanna go and listen to them also. and there so many artists out there i wouldnt know about if they didnt do that. and im glad they did.
Well done, Thanks Nick! Thanks for sharing Zac! Be Well Brothers!
His name isn't Zac Brown! It's Zakk*
Love how as pickups keep evolving, Zakk has stuck with his trusty 81/85 set. Although I prefer 60/60A/89R in the neck, the 81 in the bridge is a legend. ALWAYS power your EMG's with at least 18 volts.
It's so comforting to hear Zakk saying good things about Ritchie Blackmore, since the man has his reputation you never see people saying good things about him, but now i know i'm going on the right direction.
Great guy and musician ..this is the first time I heard him mention the hellecasters 👍👍.enjoyed this.
I'm going to see him with Ozzy in a few weeks!!
He's an amazing player. I just think that particular rig was a bit heavy on reverb and delay. Maybe a little more distortion than needed, but you can hear his picking underneath all that and it's terrific!
You know what I mean!!! ;-)
Zakk does the best, most epic, solos I have ever heard. And I have heard A LOT.
Man I love Zakks style I really want to try his new guitar line amazing what he has accomplished.
He was influenced by the pentatonic minor scale
Every Channel we all were
@@justintaylor8043 Dont even know it...
Minor Blues and Diatonic too
Can't you see chicken picking too
And chromatic scale lol
I love the way Mr. Wylde gives respect to other players with the titles he comes up with for them. So now I'm trying to think of a title for him.
Father Zakkary Wyldeth
This video was very inspirational!
I don’t know what you mean Zakk
Y007 P 😂😂
He needs to change the wylde logo it looks like a wilson tennis racquet
I know:)))))))
Insert Tom Hanks quote rom Cast Away :P
This is the first interview I watched where Zack wasn’t kidding around
Zakk Wylde is still one of my absolute favorite guitar players! I tried n tried n tried to learn the solo from Perry Mason came close but never could get it plus I sucked at guitar so I stayed behind the drums
Saw BLS and you at Clyde Theater. Good show🤘🏻
🤘😎🤘
Mr Wlyde were can I test out you amps & guitars. in NJ thanks
I NEVER KNEW THAT ZAKK PLAYED THE BLUES SO WELL, THIS TOOK ME BY SURPRISE, I WISH THAT HE WOULD DO A BLUES ALBUM, THAT WOULD BE AWESOME, THANKS FOR THIS VIDEO, ROCK ON, COUSIN FIGEL
You seemed to be locked up with caps
That would be awesome👍
Check out his album Pride & Glory
I love Zakk. To Pick that is sooooooo hard. What a tone,
Big like nice playing 🎸🎵🎵🎸🎸 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Every guitar player has strengths and weaknesses. It's funny that when I was young I didn't pick up on this. I see a lot of guitar players on utube who try to account for this commonality. They work on many different skills/mechanics/expression/techniques and they actually perfect them nicely. Often pretty cool to watch. Zakk has improved in ways and has also "lost a little" in others just like any normal person. Will always love Zakk though as I have many good memories associated with his younger years with Ozzy.
Good stuff, love ya zack, smoke was coming off the frets..Haha. like its nothing..kickin ass
I just love genuity of rock legends.
That picking is so awesome.
Saw frank 4-5 times throughout the 80s, 90's n 2000s them man SMOKES !!!!!!!
He could go from jazz fusion to light blues to MELT THE ARENA solos !!!!!
Zakk I love you man your brother from N.C.
Great guitarist
Savage, seen him 61 times!
His influence is limp Bizkit
Hahahahah lol
ahahahhaha
Hahahaaaaaa, you won, everybody else go home xd
Hahahhahahhahaha just wanted to continue the train
He is listening to justin bieber's baby
One of the greatest guitarist alive today!!!!
Sick graphic on that barbarian
Want one of those guitars
Proof the Vikings were real.
He speaks the truth!
Why do you think what do you think i always please music when you see a good musician is always been a good musician see vibs
i love Zakk but c´mon you know what i mean you know what i mean you know what i mean you know what i mean you know what i mean you know what i mean you know what i mean you know what i mean
PKJ77:
~ Yes, I _definitely_ know what you mean ! - I think if Zakk would simply switch to saying "um" a lot, it would be an improvement.😊
heheh absolutely rather an um instead of you know what i mean 10000 times
You know what I mean.
😂😂😂😂😂
i know what i mean
good vid... i like that guitar, i wood like to get one the only thing stoppen is the x jumbo frets.
Zakk mentioning Formula 1. 🤘🤘🏁
If he says " I mean, you know what I mean" one more damn time....
I had to switch off
Thanks Sweetwater
🙂🤘
Props to interviewer Nick Bowcott. A solid guitarist in his own right for Grim Reaper. Zakk forgot to mention TNT guitarist Ronnie Le Tekro as an influence.
That is one sick lookin fiddle right there...
You are my Idol
First time I heard Zakk I could hear the Frank rub. Nice to hear him give the man props. Frank's playing is a torrent of energy and his writing is cerebral. If you are unfamiliar with Mahogany Rush... poor you. He's got a wicked new live DVD box set. Check out the trailer. ruclips.net/video/wVt0i_3sp-I/видео.html
Yes, I know exactly what you mean.
I literally never not seen him wearing a sleeveless shirt these days. Also, his vibrato is among the best out there, but that's about it.
Yes Zakk, I do know what you mean
Zakk is the man!...Those who study those who have done it or invented it are always the most well rounded musicians. There is always someone coming along next....Chet Atkins all day long.
Like that guitar Rock on Zachary!
🤘
Zakk*
Did his Wylde Audio line FLOP?
Well I use the people I'm influenced by in order to make my own sound. Digging back into THEIR influences is an amazing journey of history and enlightenment but ultimately its YOUR influences you will learn from and from there develop your own style. If I like Picasso I don't need to paint pictures he loved from before. I can look at them as reference but ultimately I'll take Picasso and make it my own :)
Regardless of playing behind the head or with his teeth, Jimi's sound, the way he played which so many people were influenced by, no one played like that before him. All the guitarists that played distorted guitar, shit bricks, the first time they saw him play.
Zakk, awesome..,.....
Zakk is an accomplished musician.
Just like Fred Durst...
zakk didnt play any pinch harmonics, haters can keep quiet!
douche bag, he overplays , plays pinch harmonics and he is dried up, he sucks and ozzy's latest tour is sooooooooo boring and dreadful, Jake and Randy made ozzy great, this guy makes the fans go away and say, this guy blows, after this tour is over, what is he going to do, the same ole stupid act over and over? boring !!!! no one cares and the stupid morons think he has a gang ? its a band with wanna be followers , SUCKS!!!!!!!
@@jamesmccracken9323 you typed that like you wanted to show how little musical knowledge you have, good thing you're being sarcastic.
I don't mind the squeals if done tastefully. Zakk is one of the finest players no doubt.
James McCracken you hate him cuz you can’t play a single note that Zakk plays...idiot
@@jamesmccracken9323 you forgot the /s my guy.
"Ya Know What I Mean?" Yea... Frank Marino is the man! lol
Loves EVH and has stated as such in a few interviews. Forgets to mention EVH in this interview. Know what I mean? Hmmm.
He might want to try to add some effects
I have arthritis really bad in my hands and I can only dream Zakk Wylde
I thought the video was playing on the 2x speed in the beginning
Master of speed picking
Who makes zakks boots
Didn’t know he was into hybrid picking. Pretty cool.
cool how hes keeping it real and so down to earth after being a superstar playing with ozzy, just look at some of the other rock/metal stars that made it big and lost touch and started making overproduced commercial crap
All the comments on here about Zakk not playing with feeling and not "letting the notes breathe" He is not playing to a track here, there is no accompaniment.
It is very usual for a player to shred and practice/show technique over feel when playing alone. Feel will become more of a factor when there is a groove and a chord sequence to actually play over.
Yeah give him a break, he is just shredding for the camera.
He had it but don’t have it anymore
Zak seems like a hilarious, cool guy... but his playing has always bored me to tears. It’s the guitar equivalent of a guy who talks nonstop, yet never actually says anything.
Did he say “sorcerer Blackmore over there” ? 6:54
Nice hat!!!!!
FRANK MARINO IS THE MAN GOOD CHOICE ZAKK!!!!!!
Shreddddddddddddd
FUCK YEAH, one of my all time favorites. Part of a very short bucket list of players to see still with Blackmore, Steve Morse, and Michael Schenker.
Frank Marino and mahogany rush live 1979
I know that EVH was one of his top influences... Wonder why he left him out?
I've noticed he doesn't discuss EVH anymore.....I wonder if it is due to the awkward onstage run in they had at Dimebag's funeral
Wes Nations What happened between them?
@@Wolfoe-ex2jj At Dime's memorial, EVH showed up completely drunk and drugged out, and he kept interrupting Zakk on stage during the memorial. Apparently kept blurting out stuff like "there is no God"......reports said that it was clear Zakk was annoyed by the behavior.
EVH is a damn dick. He even acted like a smartass around Randy Rhoads. Eddie is influenced by no one. He thinks he is the best. Ive seen kids play Eruption.
@@randallamps But Eddie was influenced by Holdsworth.
🤘
I think Mustaine also said something about cutting out the middle man.
Zack would be the perfect on Vikings tv show
Do we know what he means though?
Take a shot every time he says “You know what I mean.”
🤘😎👍
ZAKK ATTACK!!!
Take a shot each time he says you know what i mean😂😂😂
I normally play shitatonic myself. . 😁
pmay222 add wah and youre kirk and this guy altogether
LMFAO!
Pentatonics get so much shit, yet the most influential players utilized them.
I bought one of his guitars because i liked the pretty colours, i never knew who he was . I raise your shitatonic with full retread
Rudy, What are you doing here?
Im not sure i know what he means?
Zakk playing while the other guys talk xD
anyone have a clue on this tone aside from distortion and delay
Zakk that hat is killing me.
More reverb PLEASE!
Who is this guitarist Dave Zakk is talking about?
Dave DiPietro
Dave DiPietro was playing those riffs while hanging out at Brian Guitars when he was 10 years old. Dave also played some serious classical guitar at that age. This might be where he drew an additional technique of "slowing down", which he may have passed on to his guitar students.
Goof mode off. That head gear tho!lol!!
My fingers cant move that fast even without a guitar....lol
Pope Page?? That one would certainly make Pagey chuckle a bit.
What happened to his Tone..
I want that beanie lol
The Almighty Zakk Wylde is definitely one of the greatest musicians to ever pick a fiddle. And most definitely the most cool and humble guy you could ever meet.
That chickin pickin is simply awesome. Acoustically or with the massive distortion he and only he can actually harness.
And all u haters out there... Lets see how ud be speaking and how ud be thinking after 20+ years w OZZY.
Ya know what I mean?
AH-AHAHAHA-HAA ! 🤣🤣🤣
Covers Iommi Rhoads Hendrix Page and has been playing with the Ozzman since he was 18? Nah just another WEEDLEY WEEDLEY WEEDLEY guitar player SDMF :)
Anthony Zaragoza looks like nobody else agrees🤔
