Currents - Monsters (guitar playthrough) 

alot hold their pick like that. tom searle ola and misha come to mind

And George Benson 🤟🏼

A lot of the guys who started playing guitar hero do.It's the reason Nolly tracks for periphery, he has a better picking technique.

How does it not slip out?

🤣 thats how I hold my pick. An u hook ur pinky under the high E string for stability an muting the higher strings

An unironic comment on Currents guitar playthrough is the last place I expected to see a Hololive VIRUS account and yet here we are. How do you do fellow Holobro?

I see you everywhere my guy

Why do i see ur comments everywhere

Lol that was punny

@@tatfeefhaque7898 😂😂😂

Yesssir!

Truly

Good song, very catchy and you can tell it’s supposed to be a crowd pleaser but it’s done very well. Kill The Ache and Better Days are probably my favourites.

Agreed this song gets stuck in my head throughout the day ...find myself singing “I don’t care that the times are changing...”. 😂

This song become my fav of all time in 3 minutes xD

he is a wise man after all

@ktakk1 ​absolutely

Heavy, yet melodic

Going from 6 string to 7/8 really made a big difference in Metal music.

It just sucks he's the main song writer for Currents. So whenever he's busy with Shadow, Currents is put on hold.

It’s probably on the way

I'd love for this to happen

Just happened

i remember when he was only doing upstrokes

Haha some people just learn so fast

Don’t need to hold it right if it’s comfortable and you got determination

That tone is violent!!

Wow...once I first heard Place I feel safest that was it. I was hooked. They became my fav band of all time. And I'm from Massachusetts, found out over year ago they from CT, which is ten min away

@@forevermarked5826 crazy you say that! That’s basically what happened with me. I heard The Place I Feel Safest and now they’re easily my favorite band. Brian is my inspiration in being a vocalist and Chris is phenomenal on guitar. I also happen to be from Massachusetts. It’s a great place to be from if you’re a currents fan because they always make sure to come around the area on tour

@@neverthere1519 wow! Very similar!U got great tatse my friend I'm from springfield/chicopee .Mass but lived in Boston for few years years ago. But yeah man Currents are my all time fav. And dying for new material! Have u hesrd any word? They over due for releasinh something

Iron label?

@@metalheadblues hell yeah !

both bands are incredible. arguably each tops of their genre.

It really isn't all that hard, besides the solo which is REALLY hard.

@@jacketyt6992 wow my comment is pretty old! I taught myself guitar a few months ago and I'm doing pretty well :D

Yep

@@blacklotus2136 on a 7 string?

@@antenna7002 Mhm

@@freezingjazzy what I find more interesting is the fact that his Ibanez is 25.5 scale length and it's reaching that low.

@@antenna7002 this one is 26.5

At least it died to some metalcore.

@Nicholas Stilinski Nicholas, so true . Yes the dam bird was a pain . It would carry on swuakin over any sound. I took a inovated solo lead on a stereo 67 Rickenbacker 12 string thru two amplifiers. It was like one of those Charlie Parker moments. The Band was shedding into another dimension. Truthfully, I felt bad about the bird.

So, how it went?

Update!

what is he doing? is it some sort of tapping slide??

​@@andershartmark8813 looks like he's switching his pickup to phase that sound. But how seamlessly he does it is literally insane.

I think it’s drop E

@@ianboone1710 cool thanks dude

@@olliehuxford680 no problem I’m glad I could help. Also if you don’t have a guitar that can tune that low I would recommend getting a digitech drop pedal then tune your guitar to drop B then use the pedal to lower it 7 steps to drop E. That’s how I do it on my 6 string

@@ianboone1710 thanks for the help dude really appreicate it. I have a 7 String Ibanez which I may need to drill the nut, for the strings to fit for drop E. Will look into a Digitec Drop Pedal :)

What guitar is that actually? Wouldn't mind getting one like that.

@@robbetorfs4093 Its an Ibanez RGD71AL Axion Label guitar.

@@baiakmenlangsuting5225 Thanks!!!

I believe he uses 80-13s

At first, I thought it might be some type of harmonic or pinch harmonic, but I actually think it could be a whammy pedal since I don't see him hit the string in any way when it happens.

Yep that's def a whammy pedal

I figured it out, if you look closely at the part before he switched to the middle position on his pickup switch and then if you look at him as he does the hand movement he's moving the switch back down, nut sure what crazy wizard shits going on but obviously that has something to do with it

@@matthewmerrill1433 I don't think he's switching pickups there. I watched a couple of time at 0.25x speed and I'm pretty sure he only does an upstroke on that high e (whatever name it has in that tunning, you get what i mean). He for sure use a whammy pedal or put the effect in post like he explained in his the way it ends track by track.

Check out the "Currents - The Way It Ends (Track By Track)" on Sharptone Records RU-vid Channel, there I explain how I get the whammy effect as well as tons of other effects I do in our music!

He looks like U S agent (John Walker)

Bro SAME. I suck at playing by ear so I’ve been looking for tabs or something. This video is the best I have so far
