Feel free to watch my cover and follow to see where and what I’m playing with the tutorial to make more sense Please be patient with me. I’ve never taught these songs before, only played them. Thank you Ste and Aud
So after watching stephan play it very carefully I think I can safely say the picking pattern is a little different. He starts off by hitting the bass note and the G string at the same time. He keeps doing this as the bass notes change. After the B string, he goes G D A D, instead of A D A D. The changing bass notes are correct, but when the bass note is on the E string, he continues to use it and not touch the A string. So for example, when the pinky is on the E string, he goes: E&G D E B G D E D. It's much cleaner to play since the pattern stays consistent, and I think it sounds better too. I appreciate the tutorials! I was just excited to share my findings. Maybe I'm completely wrong!
I agree with this. Watching the Paste Studios session closely, you can pick out the G D A D and E D E D pattern he uses, and it makes the picking a lot easier. Either way, both sound good. Cheers again Matt for all your work!
@@scarrecrrow First Chord: A+G, D, A, B, G, D, A, D. Next Three: E+G, D, E, B, G, D, E, D. By A+G for example, play both notes together. Effectively, the picking pattern is the same for all of the verse, but the bass note in the first chord is the A string, and for the other three chords it's the E string.
Hi! I left a comment in the other video but now I'd like to ask you to upload the entire song just with you playing it, like, just your guitar. It's so goddamn relaxing! ❤ Man you are really good :) thanks for uploading this by the way
This lesson is absolutely perfect, thank you for this, i learned it easily. Also, do you have any ideia of how play that final solo at the end of the song in the original version ? It’s gorgeous and I haven’t seen any cover where someone play that. :(
Try moving your forearm so that it's more parallel with the guitar neck. You'll find any stretches and reaches a lot easier as your arm becomes more parallel with the neck
You could use an ibanez cs9, boss ce-2w, or my favorite the Julia from walrus audio. Those pedals are super good for this type of music. Im sure you could find other really good ones.
Thank you. I believe Stephen used the ce-2w, but that Julia one has a nice chorus and vibrato built into it. But either one of these would do just fine
