And most important,the songs are timeless! I'm 51 and never get fed up with it! Along with EVH and Michael Schenker, he really rules!!! Hi from a froggie 😀👀
Dude this rocked!!!! Great tone! I played this in my first metal band (when the song was in the charts). George is still one of my favorite guitar players of all time.
Thanks Scundo! The 80's had the best music and musicians. It was so fun to grow up then and gig. George is definitely one of my top guitarists, but I have a number of others too. Do you still play the 80's music/style?
@@killboxone I play mostly hard rock professionally (cover and tribute bands) but no 80's metal (yet..... muuhahahahahha). Still play metal for my own pleasure. I was in metal bands from 83 to 89 and it was so much fun. I'm a little too old to head bang without a few days recovery. It's all coming back though. So, never say never..... Keep up the great content dude!!!!
Thanks Darren I appreciate the kind words and support. Thanks for taking the time to check out the video and leave a comment. Your support is greatly appreciated. 🤘🤘
Thanks William! Lynch is so badass. One of my favorite guitarists growing up in the 80s and still to this day. His style and technique are unique. You know it's his work when you hear it. Thanks for taking the time to view my videos and leave a comment. Your support is greatly appreciated. 🤘
That's one cool guitar !! Jackson USA Soloist SL-2H...I think !! Nice finish...great playing, great song,,love George Lynch. Nice job...wanna sell that Jackson 😁
Hey Stephen you know your Jackson's dude. It's probably my favorite guitar I own and have played to date. It's the only custom build I own. This Jackson Soloist USA Custom Shop SL2H-MAHQ with a speed neck is #53. I really dig it and the abalone inlays. It's setup so buttery smooth to play. I don't think I'll ever sell it. Lynch is one of my all-time favorite guitarists growing up and playing in the 80's and still to this day. I'm glad you liked the video. Thank you for viewing it and the comment. Take care \m/ \m/
@@killboxone I recently said to a couple of metalhead friends that I consider Lynch a perfect rock guitar player. He's technical and complex, but keeps that fiery rock energy, he's not a slave of being too technical just for the sake of it, or overly complex trying to play some super smart whatever. Btw great cover!
@@ManfredRS Lynch is one of the best IMHO. It's about groove/feel and tasteful licks/solos. He does that and is still very technical. Just playing a million miles an hour does nothing for me. If it doesn't have a good groove/riff and the licks/solos are not tastefully done, in general it sucks. Prime example AC/DC. They have simple riffs (catchy and awesome) and the leads/licks are tastefully done. One of the best bands ever IMHO for a variety of reasons, but the simple answer is their formula. Lynch is legend. 🤘
Hey hands down you are the king on this one your quality the sound the ride I put it in my Corvette I got a 88 black convertible vet and I pull through cruising areas acting cheesy but having a blast and I turn and I crank it up this version rather than the album.
Dude thanks for the kind words of encouragement. I appreciate you taking the time to check out my video and leave a comment. Your support is greatly appreciated 🤘
@@toddwilling1 I feel that way about so many guitarists I see on RU-vid these days, but I'm just having fun again with music. I stopped playing for 20 years and just picked it back up again about a year and a half ago.
I've played guitar for 35+ years, but now I cannot play my guitar ever again due to being diagnosed with an incurable, crippling hand disease:( It sucks to lose what you love, so for all you guitar players out there, please never take your gift for granted.
Dude I'm very sorry to hear about your illness. I take nothing for granted anymore because I've lived a long and fulfilling life, long enough to know it can all be over tomorrow. I'm just happy I've experienced and have done things most people have not, for that I'm truly grateful and blessed. I know nothing lasts forever. Take care and God Bless 🤘
Thanks Jesus. Lynch rules, one of my all time favorites growing up and up this day. Thanks for taking the time to view my videos and leave a comment. Your support is greatly appreciated. 🤘🤘
I agree, I lack in the solo department though since my passion is with riffs. I just need to spend more time and try to get better in that area. I appreciate the feedback and thanks for taking the time to check out the video and leave a comment.
@@killboxone what's your setup? Back in the day i used an ADA MP1 with alesis quadraverb, MEQ230, BBE sonic maximiser, Rocktron HUSH and ADA B200 200w RMS into (2) 4 X 12 straight cab's that I built loaded with FANE's. Now I use the THU through a computer....LOL
@@mikeking7582 I've always been a Mesa guy since I grew up in Petaluma. Back in the day (late 80s/early 90s) I used a Mesa Boogie 50 cal+ head with 2x12 cab for gigs. Currently I have a Bandlander 100 and Road King II cab. I also have a quad cortex and use vst plugins in the DAW (Reaper). I tone whore a lot. Always searching for the perfect tone, but like bigfoot it doesn't really exist and is elusive. Just when you think you have it after a little while, you're like fuck that sucks and once again back to tone whoring for that awesome/perfect tone.
@@SoCalDrone4u no fractal. I have a few toys. Quad Cortex, Mess Badlander 100 and vst plugins. I generally just go clean/direct into the DAW and use vst plugins to shape the tone to the backing track. This way I can tweak it without having to track it again. I know I can do the same with the Quad Cortex (clean track and dirty track), but at this point it's working out ok. I need to experiment more with my other options, but for now this is quick and simple.
@@killboxone Gotcha. Yeah, I’m using VST plugins too. I can get killer tones but sometimes it’s hard to capture that “boof” low end chug which I adore. Sounds like you’ve achieved it. Any suggestions?
Jam up!!! Pun INTENDED !!! Great job brotha !!! forgot how fun and epic this song is, surprised you didn't do an inset on the lead parts cause i'm sure you can ...Gonna have to knock the rust off and jam with you.... Awesome cover !! oh ... are thems Sreamin' Demon's??? Sounds like it !!! Got a set on 3 guitars !!!
I'm always up for a jam. Would love to start a band again, but where I live now doesn't lend itself to that. I'm playing on GHS boomers 09-42. Been playing these since the glorious 80s. 🤘 Your name reminds me of a band we opened for back in the early 90s (Bang Tango) at The Stone in S.F. on Broadway (a killer and historic venue).
@@killboxone My brother !!! The last band i was in was " Disturbin' the Peace" LOL, Here in Ga But i believe we could put together a Marvelous Jam !!! .. You just woke my inner GL... George Lynch is and will be forever a guitar god of mine ...Signed a Peavy Vandenberg for me and made fun of my 1984 Back for the attack Chord book in Atlanta At Sam Ash music enjoyed his jam session profusely !!! cloud nine for sure !!! Keep jammin' bro!!! i'm with ya ...maybe some day we'll meet and hopefully we'll jam !!! Keep up the good work my brother ...Always with ya !!!! Hope you you Never run outta chords !!!! TT
@@bobbyw1510 thanks man. I really appreciate the kind words and you taking the time to check out my videos, leave comments and the sub. Your support is greatly appreciated. 🤘
I get it. I can kind of play the solo, but if I don't, or can't play it right 100%, I just leave it out. I tend to gravitate to riffs and rhythm though.
I suck, my solos are terrible. I've never really been much of a solo player, I've always been more focused on rhythm and riffs tbh. Recently I've decided to give it a whirl and try to get better at that aspect of playing. Thanks for taking the time to check out the videos and leave a comment. Your support and feedback are greatly appreciated.
Thanks man, I really appreciate it. Thanks for stopping by and the support. Lynch is a beast and one of my favorite guitarists growing up back in the good old days.
