yeah I saw your one mate which is pretty nice too, and btw am totally going to be broke as broke can be shortly as soon as I've paid for my cab from DC. I might save up next year and get me a humbuckered guitar? and another thing, just speaking personally here I don't think I could sell a guitar again done it once, my SG400 and it was mint, I will keep all my guitars, and just save for more. :mrgreen:

I read somewhere the parts were just from his first take on a demo, they ended up recording them pretty much as was...
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

Mean. I find lately guys that as I play my Tele most of the time and I am working on one main piece at the moment, I tend to be distracted and want to do some other song...do you guys have that issue too? the old story learning like 5 songs at a time senario? I feel if I just concentrate on one at a time I would just fucken nail it..sooner. I don't have any desire to write my own stuff but rather take a classic and make it my own...have no choice there as it definitely doesn't sound like the original, and I do that on purpose of course...not. :wink:

reverb ... and I wouldn't call it a truckload. I would call it about the right amount.

:)
Yup - that's me and my pal Steve or little stevie vai as I like to call him. In Auckland airport when I was 26. I'm not 26 anymore.

there is definitely delay there as well. Is it only me who thinks he looks way older than the other guys?? maybe it because he isn't in the band anymore

Ive never thought I would even get close to Dimes Cemetery solo. But watchin Chris Zoupas lessons and starting slow its not as hard as it sounds.
Loving it so far

I like learning solos and playing to the backing track, then trying to improvise my own ones and attempt to make them sound like they belong in the song. Trying to slow down and phrase licks more than the fast runs etc. Playing old school stuff. Classic rock. Force myself to learn classic solos like Hotel California and Comfortably Numb etc. Learn lots about phrasing and note choices by doing that. Simple solos done with real style. I always remember some guitarist back in the 80s advising newbies to "just steal" licks off others and make them your own. Still do the Randy Rhoads stuff a bit, but over did it so they feel like exercises now.

This, which is really bloody odd, because if I am noodling away by myself, I tend to repeat the same licks and runs over and over... but as soon as I try and links some of it together for an actual solo, it's a one time only affair.
The older I get, the more disappointed in myself I become.
