Another Sabre vid

[witeter]

Hey guys Vik Guitars put on a competition some weeks back, so i managed to put something together for it. I didnt win (not that I thought i would) but it was good experience in doing something like this in a short period of time. I would recommend doing something like this to everyone-anyhow, hope you enjoy!
Im using my Sabre Wraith Custom through the AxeFx Ultra

I like it, nice playing. Makes me wanne get back to practicing to be less ashamed.^^

Dig the slight classic influence towards the end of the solo. The stlye as a whole was cool, not overly shreddy, no, it was musical. THumbs up!

Oh and still one heck of a tasty guitar.

[witeter]

Thanks man! yes im not really into overly shreddy stuff, just bores me after a while-also i cant really play the full on shred stuff anyways lol
But yes im more interested in vocal-like melody lines and composition-so im glad you enjoyed it!

I'll check the video out later when i'm on the PC but I guess this is Viks way to get back in peoples good graces after his week of gay bashing the other month.

I did infact not. Well, f*ck that guy, no pun intended!

Totally accidental stumble into this thread, I had no idea about Vik's comments (or the Cynic story, in fact).  He comes across as an utter tool.

I must say that before reading all that, I enjoyed witeter's clip, nice work.

[Toe-Knee]

I agree. Sorry for derailing the thread somewhat. I too just watched Witeter's clip and it was very enjoyable.

And wow. That JH set really suits that guitar.

[witeter]

Glad you enjoyed the music guys

Sounds good! Man I need to work on my lead playing, and songwriting. Well... all my playing!
Did I see you rocking that guitar around the guitar show last february?

One thing that always strikes me when watching guitar-player video clips is that the guys' hands don't seem to be doing anything particularly complex, most of the time.

So why doesn't it work with my hands? 

[witeter]

Dmoney- you probably did!! I was at the Zilla booth doing a thrash fest  next time come and say hi 

Im trying to improve my lead playing also as im better at rhythm, not sure if i will ever play lightning quick but i have a soft spot for lots of bending and  melody - if i cant hum it, i dont bother with it kinda thing lol

[Dmoney]

I think I saw you having a go on some Diezel stuff too. I recognized the guitar. Can't be too many kicking about like that! You looked like you were being serious. Ha.

My favorite players aren't super fast shredders. I like Dr Know (Gary Miller) of Bad Brains and Chris Haskett's work in Rollins Band, and a few others. Very different players. I need to learn more songs and push myself to pick up some new tricks. I need to start writing again. I really really struggle with that now. I need to find some kind of method or structure to help me start.
