"penta meaning nine, and tonic being a type of drink" god I love this dude

Mads Harder Møller Not really because everyone in Rock n Roll knows what Jimi Hendrix said: “if a six was a nine!” ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-oIozLaDpfVs.html

I find Devin funny and humble and very intelligent.

@michaelr.4878 5 лет назад

Totally. Devin is great and very Canadian. Being a nice person is one of our great Canadian traditions. hehe. I'm both joking and being serious. Devin is a very smart and quirky guy. As much as I admire and appreciate his musical abilities, I would absolutely hate playing in a band with him due to the open tuning thing. I might be able to play bass with him, but my brain doesn't work fast enough to be able to play along with a guitar.

@adam872 8 лет назад

I like Devin, not only is he a gifted musician but he's also a full mad dog too. It would be a hoot playing with him.

"... give you this big crushing 'hey there, I'm a 15 year old rock god standing on the top of mount Vesuvius playing 15 marshal stacks to the gods!' type of sound."

@nut8856 8 лет назад

I wonder if he prepares his jokes from before he has to do interviews or something. The pentatonic joke was pure gold.

@metalnerd79 10 лет назад

I've always got him. That manic intensity that just takes over you. Then you have this quiet almost melancholy introspective time. Deconstruction and Ghost were great polar opposites in that regard.

@ANDREWHALL28 15 лет назад

@jaketaz2848 10 лет назад

I love that he doesn't understand theory, but obviously understands music anyway. I'm a classical musician and my knowledge can be really constricting, but Devin's training is all practical/ear based and you can see how well it works for him

@FeelingShred 9 лет назад

Stevie Salas also doesn't know theory and write some badass tunes, that doesn't matter. But maybe they will never compose such a cool/witty riff as "Norwegian Cowbell" by Paul Gilbert.

@jessedenner6042 6 лет назад

He understands general theory. He talks about note names, scales, terms like arpeggios, grace notes and whatnot. Thats all theory.

@viniciusbertucci 5 лет назад

He understands theory. It's not formal theory, but it's his own understanding of how music works. The knows how chords, scales, intervals work, so that's theory.

@topsecret1837 4 года назад

jaketaz Don’t use it as a constriction, but as an ace up your sleeve.

@mikescanlan4653 10 лет назад

Open tunings, Modal tunings, and cross-note tunings are amazing. Wish more guitarist would use them

@Wheelman2112 10 лет назад

I'm a metal guitarist (I play lots of other styles too) in my spare time, and I use open tunings exclusively, almost always open C# or open D. I just understand them so much better than standard or drop tunings, and I find them more conducive to fluid playing, personally. Just my 2 cents.

@mikescanlan4653 10 лет назад

I play mostly cross note tunings, which are like open tunings but tuned to a minor chord. I agree, and also play metal and because most metal guitarist use drop tunings, the alternative tunings sound better because you dont hear them all the time.

@fmbighair 14 лет назад

ha ha, "you can point and do the knowing nod." lol....i'm just wondering what you need to do as far as setting up the guitar for a low tuning like that? I'm guessing having a tech do it would be the best? I would think the slots in the nut would have to be routed a little more to fit the heavier strings, action would have to be raised at the bridge and I'm wondering about the truss rod?

Egotistical?Then your seeing the wrong stuff,Devin is the coolest,most humble man on the planet as far as I know.He jokes and is sarcastic if thats what your refering to,but he makes fun of himself more than anything,nor does he take himself seriously even though his fanbase,which is huge and getting bigger,sees him as nothing more than a God.

@rockrenegade 11 лет назад

I think we can infer from the latter that he was also joking about the former. Devin of all people would be familiar with the pentatonic scale. He could also possibly be referring to the amount of notes you actually play, not only the notes that exist in the scale not counting repeats on octaves (even though that's more than 9, it's something like 13) I'm going to go with the first.

I play peavey guitars (hp special) and peavey vypyr amps and there really are the best things I've ever used. I've played ibanez gem, rg, s series, esp horizon, viper, Jackson rr, guitars and still the peavey is better than all of them. The only guitar i have had thaat could top the Peavey hp was an Ernie ball music man axis, which i had to work my ass off for months to buy. but the hp has the same feel and sounds so awesome so fuck the big names and go with peavey.
