Rhythm guitar cover as played by James Hetfield Played with an ESP MX-2 through a Mesa Boogie Mark IIC+ Note: I realise I went a little too far on the bends in the intro, please be gentle on me! :)
Hey Denis I'm glad you came accross this video! I'm definitely loving and enjoying the amp, there will be more videos with it in the future. Thanks again for selling it to me!
Thanks for the positive feedback! I love this song heaps too, after watching the Seattle '89 show for the first time years ago it made me even love the song twice as much more 🤘
Amazing playing dude . That set ups a beast !! I imagine you can hear it from a couple of miles away . 😂😂😂😂 Stunning instruments too . Thanks for sharing .
Awesome cover, you nailed this pretty much, you just need to work on getting the intonation of those bends in the intro part right and it'll be spot on. (The bends sounded slightly sharp but apart from that, excellent cover)
@@LucasPestkowski No worries man, keep up the good work. it can be difficult to hit bends at the right pitch, it's something i struggle with too, keep at it man though man, you absolutely rock. 🤘
i was a little skeptical in the beginning with those Uber bends, but every other aspect of the song you fucking destroyed, kudos to you brother, killer cover!
Curious to know if you had the nut replaced on your MX2 or something?! I've owned 10 of them since 1992 and they all had graphite nuts. I've yet to see a bone nut on one.
This MX actually belongs to my friend who let me borrow it for this video, but its a 2021 built MX2 which he only recieved a few days prior to me filming this, so it came out of the factory with this nut
@@briansmith2125 Some smaller US guitar brands are still building custom MX style explorer guitars (obviously without the ESP branding). Check out Black Diamond Custom Guitars for example.
@@cristianlopez_8486 Agreed and I really hope that Black Diamond, or whoever will put in the real effort, kills it selling them! Whoever succeeds in filling that small market space needs to be willing to build an ESP MX-220 spec machine and go no further.
@@briansmith2125 let's hope they remain low key and demand remains niche, lest we have another Gibson style cease-and-decist lawsuit like what happened to ESP.
Nice cover and sound! My favourite guitar, pitty that they dont make it anymore. I got an epiphone explorer 1984 instead, similar building, not quality of course.
@@LucasPestkowski niestety masz rację. Kupiłem Mk III Red Stripe za 8000zł ale to dalej nie to samo co C+. Teraz jak się już znajdzie jakiegoś to chodzą po 20k.
I think you did a good video as shooting and editing, but I have to say there are some little mistakes during the closing bar of the main riff when it goes on the 16ths on A# and I'm wondering why you didn't played the harmony section in the interlude, since you have done the intro I mean. Ah and during the rhythm below the solo you are missing an A# too. But I'm not saying it is a bad interpretation, it's just 'cause I play this sing too from a long time and I have noticed this little things. However it is still an hard song to play and you have done a cool all down picking work \m/
Thanks man, It's a genuine MX2, built in 2021 one of the last ones ever made apparently. This guitar belongs to a friend of mine who let me use it for this video.
@@LucasPestkowski ohhh damm nevermind I thought you were here in California. I wanted to ask if you wanted to have a jamm session you have really good technique and I figured you could keep up with my style. I also play covers plus originals same genre as you. I'm 39 years old haven't played in a group for years
Sounds awesome. There are a couple things that stand out as different to me: 1. The bends on the intro which others have noted 2. The main riff - looks like you’re playing the same 0-7-0-7-0-7-8-7 0-7-0-7-(8)-7 pattern each time. Listen to the isolated guitar track, you’ll hear that (8) on the 4th string is a (6) on the 6th string every other time. I mean this is all splitting hairs of course… freaking kick ass cover dude.
Hi! How are you? I'm Demian from Rosario Argentina, I'm telling you I'm an independent music producer, and I play the drums, and I want to do a project in which I record the drums for a song and then edit it on video,
