There's a clip of Dime doing the sequenced arpeggio in a young guitar lesson but he ends it with a pull off lick and goes into an interpretation of Still Got the Blues by Gary Moore.
Thanks for this and your other videos. The simplistic approach and breakdowns on Dimes licks that you’re showing us have helped me to start learning them.
I have been a Dime fan since cfh and I finally got to meet him in 04 with damageplan at earthday birthday concert in orlando fl. was the most coolest guy I've ever met, he stopped the signing line to approach me to sign my home made Dimebag Tshirt and take a pic with him.
Really cool licks! I've actually done the third one just from examining the scales and a really basic knowledge of triads. I had no idea it could sound so cool with some speed.
Dave I've been playing that similar pentatonic lick as far back as I could remember on the high E string 12th 15th n 17th frets using pulloffs n hammer ons, who knew? Great minds think alike. ROCK ON DUDE! 🤘 ⚡️🤘
It’s amazing how that final lick is infamously played differently from person to person. In high school, I watched his solo from when he was 18 and I tried to emulate what he was doing ‘cause it just sounded wicked. I played it (let’s say if I’m in the key of A), I would hammer on from nowhere across the top three strings (ex: 5th fret on E string, 8th fret on B string and 7th fret on G string... and yes I played it one less note). Tbh, now looking back at that video, he does play it like how you showed it. It’s just cool to learn from just hearing and watching first because I never had a clue I was doing it different because it would go by so fast that I would just guess what the notes were. But I’m thankful that you showed us how it’s actually played. Cheers!
It's taken me months and months to learn the interlude part of "Floods" (plus the solo) along with the outro, but really learning those song fragments were the best technical practice I've ever had.
We love your lick lessons, Dave! But with all that knowledge and licks up your sleeve, I think it would be down right fascinating to hear top 10 (3 is just not enough) favourite licks of David Brewster!
This has been the best October yet. Loved it 👍These are tasty licks and lick #2 a two string arpeggio makes even me sound fast . Wicked (quite literally ) 👍🇬🇧😜 🎃
Dime plays that arpeggio lick by hammering off of nowhere on the a and the e string, he does it in the clinic video as well during the cemetery gates solo, very difficult to play, guy had such good dexterity.
If you hunger for more, there are at least two posts on YT of Dime's legendary Randall Clinic, where he basically answers every question, jams some tunes, and chills with the fans (and even plays a little drums lol). If you find a video around 58 minutes long, you've found the clinic and all the afterhang stuff. There are various cuts and clips of it also but 58 minutes should be all the footage of that session that I know of. I have no idea who's channel it's on and I don't usually promote it because fans always find it eventually anyhow and will continue to if it doesn't get taken down someday.
Quick question for you Dave,between the 2 variations of that last lick you played his version,then your version,which of the 2 is more comfortable for you to play.I find myself doing that myself,I access the "escape route plan",what I call it,and that is where I'll be at (position wise) and where I want to go once I am done playing that sequence of notes in that phrase.I might be overstating,or too detailed in my explanation,maybe not enuff ,lol.But you are right about thinking while you play,most don't like to do that,and I think maybe you should do a video on just how important using you pinky is in playing. I have found out that it relieves tension on my hand and has definitely improved my dexterity as well,I am a big stickler about playing with my thumb resting center of the neck,lets say I keep my thumbnail right above the skunk stripe on a strat for instance ,and this has also helped with the pains of learning to play as well,so I used to imagine all my guitars i have with that strat skunk stripe on the neck,not so much anymore these days,i guess just comfortable with my ability to play I guess,and also thank you for taking the time to put up these videos for all us players out here to view ,you abilities as a seasoned player shows thru you patience and just the love of playing the instrument,keep rocking and tank you again
They're the highest charting HEAVY metal band on lists I've seen regarding record sales. I think Metallica is on the list for the black album which is very poppy. Pantera sold millions of records billing themselves as the heaviest possible metal. And that's WHY they sold music. They made METAL mainstream.
Dime loved Gary Moore. The last lick is a Gary Moore inspired lick. Listen to Gary Moore - Bad news 2:16. Dirty Fingers album. BTW I play it like you do.
The damageplan album is a gem and underrated. I’m a huge pantera fan but DP was more accessible but had many moments of brilliance that left you wanting more. 10/10 for me
Thx Dave, alot of great memories with this one. Got to meet and party a little with the boys on the Cowboys tour when my buddies band opened up for Pantera in Cleveland. what a truly fun guy and killer player too. RIP Vinnie too. Thx again 🎸🤘
Craig Goldy arpeggio lesson because if you listen to his VHS lesson that arpeggios he uses and also and dios Band-Aid that he put together Craig Goldie does some arpeggios for the guitar solo. I don't think you have made a dug Ulrich video lesson because he has a lot of chords partial cords and then he rings and vibrates the bottom upper structure of the triad while keeping the bass note stationary and his licks throughout all the all the bands he's been in through the early 90s and stuff like that maybe you can relisten to all those albums and try to get some licks to make a dog Ulrich video lesson that would be nice
The finest artists are seldom long for this world. Dimebag, like Hendrix, Randy Rhoads, and Stevie Ray Vaughan before him, simply outshined everybody else and poured endless beauty into an ugly world, and then he was gone, but the beauty of his music remains.
Far Beyond Driven was my favorite album. Dimebag was awesome! I don't care if I can't play any of the stuff you're showing, dude. Still love the music and your vids. :) Rock on! \\m//
Getcha ya pull man. I will be digging into this lesson once I'm home from work. Hey man I was watching your jazz guitar primer video and blues turnarounds video they were great really helped out. Do you think 🤔 you will make anymore lessons like that in the near future. They help out a bunch and you're good at breaking down some of the more intricate parts of playing guitar and understanding the theory behind it. Oh yeah, the funk guitar lessons was great as well. Cheers From Maryland. Metal Month has been a lot fun as well. peace 🕊️ ✌️ man
I have a hard time finding the count but I prefer to count it when have the count. It helps me stay on time vs chasing the beat. I am relatively new to guitar. If anyone can give an explanation of finding the count that would be awesome. Thanks for the video. Love Dime. Gotcha pull
