Great to see Deftones on the channel Nick! Around the Fur is one of my favorites them and has a ton of great riffing. I know Stephen Carpenter uses 7 strings a lot, so I was really impressed to see you do this on 6.
Thanks Brett! It’s one of my favourite albums too 😁👍🏻. I think he only moved to 7 strings on their self titled album. Around the fur is drop C# and I believe white pony was drop C before he then switched to 7s (and later 8s!).
Salud 🍻 Great cover, as always!! I also play this song with my friends. Yes i m also getting old, 53 and still so motivated about a guitar season with friends and beers
Flawless as always. Could you do be quiet and drive or rocket skates perhaps? Love your incubus stuff but it's great to see you doing some others too. Keep up the good work!
Thank you! Be quiet and drive will definitely be coming soon. I’d love to cover rocket skates as it’s a beast of a song. However, covering deftones gets tricky after the white pony era as Steph started using 7 strings and I believe for rocket skates, I’d need an 8 string 😩😅
Nice to see you branch out to other bands of the era, I hope we'll get to see some effect guides on those too when you'll eventually tackle more FX heavy songs. Keep up the great work
NICK!!! I knew you were cool but I didn’t know you were DEFTONES cool!!! I can’t wait to show this one to my buds! We jam it all the time. Always leaves my throat hurting after tho haha! Amazing job as always! Have a great day!!!
😁🤘🏻 they have been one of my favourite bands since the late 90s! (jeez I’m getting old!!). Used to love jamming this with friends, never envied the vocalist trying to imitate Chino though 😝
Thanks Roy, it really is! Not necessarily, I’m using a plug-in to detune my guitar on this one - so my Ibanez is in drop D and the plug-in drops it one semi tone to drop C# 😁👍🏻. You could do the same with something like the Digitech Drop as a hardware unit example 🤘🏻
