Re: Zakk Wylde Total gutiar vid

He's cool technically but there's no real tune or melody is there?

Give me Slash any day.

Re: Zakk Wylde Total gutiar vid

I like Zakk's persona. He 'and the ole man' are now legends.

As far as Zakk's playing, he's a guy who has a big work ethic. Just check out his 'beefcake' thing, he met those WWE guys and decided to work out and bingo (and I doubt he's done roids). I don't care for his BLS work and most of his stuff with Ozzy, but like the true hard worker he is, he's at his best live.

I recall EVH saying Jimmy Page live was like watching a guy play with a broken wrist

He'll always to no.2 to Randy but he is a monster live and gives it all.

that was very well put. I feel the same, I'm not a fan of Zakk era Ozzy or BLA, but I love Zakk's attitude, work ethic and hes like the poster boy for Metal and keeping good chops on the guitar. Hes maybe the only high-profile guy through the 90's to have the balls to be like that and I thank him for it.

Tis a warmup, Jag, not a solo or song.

Re: Zakk Wylde Total gutiar vid

Those are custom made EMG's. Both James Hetfield and Kirk Hammett have also had them made.

Would be some pretty cool info if someone can find it. Anyways I have my mind made up on some Lawrence XL500s I can't wait. Should sound nice in my LP Studio...Im drooling at visual of it. Zebra black/white with that blade look in Chrome covers!! On a Black Paul with chrome Hardware.....soon. The wait is almost over.

it's a warm up.. they usualy dont consist of songs or anything, just silly scale runs and diferent techniques.. he's all over the place.

noticed how he picks with his pick and ring finger/pinky at the same time in one of the passages?


btw, where's the info on those custom EMG's???

Re: Zakk Wylde Total gutiar vid

Thats called Chicken picken! I trying to learn that effectively it's really hard man. Mostly bluegrass players do that.

Re: Zakk Wylde Total gutiar vid

ah, THAT's chicken pickin? didnt know that

and that video is somehow making me buy a LP standard and slap a gold covered JB/jazz combo into it... weird =P

Re: Zakk Wylde Total gutiar vid

It looks a bit sloppy and uncontrolled when he's playing, but it's not. He sure gets the job done. He's fast as hell. A little off topic, but related: anyone seen the George Lynch REH video? I'd say he's even faster than this, and plays with more of an effortless style, highly recommended for fans of fast style playing
