cover clip: Final sacrifice

[Davey]

so, i was searching for guitar pro tabs for Avantasia - Memory to play along it with a metronome intro, but i didnt find it.. the only one that they had from avantasia that isnt 14 minutes long was The final sacrifice ...

purpose of this clip: TONE!!!!!! what else LOL

this is my 3rd take at the song ever. i'll sit down and go through the verses, riffs, fills and timing tomorrow, so i'll eliminate the millions of mistakes there are in this one.. take it as .. a demo hehe .. the beginning is wannabe improvised also

only 1 guitar track, no sound canceling, no hiss reduction. it's as RAW as it can get

and i think i found the be all and end all of tone for myself hehe.

TO, whatcha think?

and again, please dont take my playing too seriously.i listened through it only roughly cos if i'd take a throrough listen, you guys wouldnt hear it till next week LOL

enjoy =P
The Final Sacrifice

The tone is sweet for metal man, but i'd take the verb off pre and put it post

Nice riffing man :headbang:

Okay, played it 3 times.
I won't comment on the playing, because you asked me not to. But I will say that I think it's fine and could tell what song it was.
I won't comment on the mix except to say that the guitar was way too loud!!
Now, for the most important part: THE TONE!!!!
Fer Power Metal, it's great. I think you can roll back the gain a bit and you will have more of the sound of your guitar coming through and less of that wall of distortion.
It sounds like you're on your way, Davey! Sounds monstrous!
