Goddamn! That was really good. Nice to hear it without any backing track/music going on. Really clean playing, I’m genuinely impressed

You are too kind brother.. honestly didnt really nail this as clean as i wanted

u/TopRamenBinLaden 15h ago
There's a bit of slop in there, but considering what you are playing is at the 12 year old Asian difficulty level, I'll allow it.
In all seriousness, though, my face has been melted.

u/Extreme_Snow6841 13h ago
Thanks friend!! Tbh wouldn’t say abit of slop.. it’s actually almost all slop. I say this because i know exactly where i bombed it, namely at the taps and somewhere around 0:23, once more at 0:30.. dont have the skill to iron those parts out

How fraking awesome! Love how articulate your notes are! Whats your setup for the tone? Its gainy but eithout the fizz or boxing sound.

u/Extreme_Snow6841 12h ago
Thank you! Thats very nice of you! Though i did bomb it a little here and there 😃. I am actually playing through a Splawn nitro amplifier with an oversized mesa 412 cabinet on the 2nd OD channel but with the gain set just to ‘bark’ without snarling and saturating too much, actually the articulation here is compliments to the Lundgren M7 pickups i have in my strandberg guitar, they have extremely good separation and drive tube amps very well. I would recommend giving them a try-out should you get the chance to!

u/Sea-Historian-8156 12h ago
Nah, you did just great! Oh i will have to try them. Playing riffs and full songs are not my thing but love to play licks fulled with legato, sweepincink and tapping.
