One note per second...

Hi guys,

I just posted another track at my soundclick page. :)

Normally I don't bother other people with it, but I do progress as a guitarplayer and wanted to let others hear it.

Yeah, I know I am not that great :laugh2: , but it is my first attemp to play more then just one note per second. :laugh2: :laugh2:

See if you dare...:

Re: One note per second...

NOTE: it is the WHITE KNIGHT track.

This is my first recording with my brand new JB humbucker in my EPI LP Zakk Wylde.
That is a good thing. The bad thing is that I still use my Digitech (still saving for a POD he?).

Re: One note per second...

one thing i wanted to ask you.. how is the neck on that thing?

i mean the profile, thickness. is the epi a bolt on or a set neck? i'm really starting to dig zakks axe.. no need of another stoptail short scale axe at the moment, but i might consider it in the future. and how does it compare to the gibson as far as craftmanship goes?

oh about the song... downloading

slowly but surely =)
oh and i advise you to get a new pick, cos your picks can be heard rather sharply.

the playing is cool hehe. sound aint AS bad, but the trebbles are rather sharp and the background hissing is >.<

The Zakk axe is pretty well set up. It is a set in neck, 22 medium frets.
See: http://www.epiphone.com/default.asp?ProductID=151&CollectionID=6
On harmony central there are many reviews too.
But the best is to try in the music store.
If you gonna buy, check the prices first, because in Holland I got it for 699 euro and I saw it for 800 too. The same axe.


Guess what: Epiphone now has the Zakk Buzzsaw too! That axe has also akiller look!
I don't know about Gibsons, I have never played them.

Tanx that you found the playing cool. It is a rather unpolished thing, but for the moment it is the best I can.
I still have to learn soooo much. This track comes forth from a self made legato exercise.
I was a little stoned and messing around and thought it sounded kind of cool. So I pushed 'record'. :laugh2:

Yeah, I use a hard 3 mm stubby. I well focus from now on better how I pick and maybe I will try some others, but i have always played with that stubby.

The hiss is probably the Digitech. I almost went out today to buy a POD 2.0, but my salary wasn't there, so I am kind of broke. :smack:

The sustain of the JB is incredible he at the end? :)
I was amazed about that when I got the JB!

Enough my friend, got to put my son to bed, so I can practice my skills again.. :rolleyes:

Re: One note per second...

I like the sound of it. It fits the little melody well. I think its great for your level for sure. I also admire that your keeping your speed within your means. Its better to play cleaner, slower than to try to over extend yourself which it seems like a lot of beginners do including myself when I started probably.
 
Re: One note per second...

Tanx you guys. :bigthumb:

I was a little nervous how all you pals would react on my track. :scared:
Look, if you post a killer track, there is nothing to fear.
But this was just a beginner thingy, but I had for the first time the feeling that I was playing guitar! That's why I posted it.

I am glad that you didn't kill me and that even a cool player like DirrtyCraig does find it okay for my level.

A long way I have to travel, but I will keep on marching! :smokin:
Your reactions are very motivating for me.

And Davey: I am experimenting with a thinner pick.

Peace!

Re: One note per second...

yea.. bout the sustain... i was really amazed. i dont get as much from my axe (cheap workmanship.. make that very cheap)

no way man.. that's really cool. keep it slow for starters and work on your coordination and accuracy. and i advise you to start with your vibrato and bending techniques slowly too

man 3 mm picks.. this is like using a silver dollar .. geez >.<
i use fender .88's and 1.02's i found that everything over 1.2mm is just not ment for me
