Yes, I'm alive... I know... been way too long time since my last video, but somewhere I lost my interest of uploading videos. Sorry for that.
Anyway, this is the solo for Extreme's song "Rest in Peace", which I learned just a moment ago.
I was watching the swedish X-Factor on TV but got so f****n bored, so I decided to learn something new. I miss a couple of notes in the beginning, but... I don't care that much, haha!
The video was taken with my iPhone 4 leaning against my desktop speaker with the iPhone's built in microphone pointing at the center of the speaker. It's also the small camera, so I can see what I'm actually recording, so the quality isn't exactly perfect. But... I don't have the patience to use my Canon EOS550D and editing and all stuff. So, I guess this has to be the way I upload things from now on.
Anyway, the guitar is an Ibanez Roadcore RC320 wich I got just two weeks back. I really dig it!
Feels like a telecaster to play, but sounds darker... like a Les Paul, but a bit thinner.
I got a .009"-set on right now, but it sounds better with heavier gauges, which my fingers have trouble with... my middle finger hurts due to a tractor accident many years ago.
The sound comes from my Boss GT-10. I didn't save the preset, so don't ask...
And I don't have any tabs, I used my ears and slowed down the speed of the song in windows media player to pick the notes out.
So... I wish you guys a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!
Cheers! / Fredric
