Excellent, I bet that took some time to get that fluid. I know it takes some work to get it down like that. Just amazing. I'm looking forward to your next one. Get busy! The best thing is it looks like you are having fun!

A+
Really nice.
I was thinking Satch too.
Even in the tone department to some extent, but with more balls.
Great sound from that little amp huh?
And, well, the guitar just sings.
Keep 'em coming!

[Nuclear Vampire]

Excellent playing dude. Great tone too. Thanks for sharing.

Sexy! And I mean that in the most hetrosexual way, of course! It was...Hetrosexy!

[chrisolson]

Terrific playing!! Great tone, great feel, and very melodic.

It sounded Line 6-ish, but I wasn't sure. Great sounding for a Spider!

[Big D]

That was fucking great, nice work dude!

I'm playing through a Line 6 Spinder III 75 watt, single speaker combo.

say what?

[fullmetalguitar]

say what?

Oops, slight typo there. It should say "Spider," and yes that's what I'm playing through.

Anyway, thanks for enjoying the clip. More stuff coming soon. I'm working on it.

I knew it was typo and i still say
sounds good for a spider III!

Excellent, love the vibrato - how do you get it that wide on a guitar with a trem?

And do I detect an Adrian Smith influence there as well as Satch?

I'm not sure what you mean. Can you explain the question a bit more?

Honestly, when someone asks who my influences are, those two names never come up. I haven't listened to much Maiden other than their most popular songs. I don't have a single Maiden cd. I do remember from the Wasted Years song that Adrian had some cool vibrato going on, so I see what you're saying. As for Satriani, I have Surfing with the Alien, and Flying in a Blue Dream. But back in those days, I was heavily into George Lynch, Racer X, Vinnie Moore, MacAlpine, Nuno, and John Sykes. Maybe I'm mellowing with age or it could have something to do with the fact that Def Leppard is my favorite band! Anyway, the Satriani vibe was unintentional, but it's super cool that people are hearing that.
