Bohemian Rhapsody – for solo guitar

admin — Fri, 07 May 2010 21:40:22 +0000

This is what I learned from Edgar Cruz’s DVD. I just HAD to learn this piece after hearing Edgar perform it. The music/tab (included on the DVD) is transcribed precisely, but that only scratches the surface. The DVD covers tons of valuable information on technique, variations and alternate fingerings (many of which you see here). I’m not claiming to be a virtuoso – I’m just showing off Edgar’s work. The magic is in the arrangement.

Cliff Burton tribute (3 Bass guitars)

“In memory of Cliff Burton”

This is an episode of “To live is to die” song, from Metallica.

I play it on Spector bass, with Boss Rc-2 loop station and Zoom b2.1u multieffect.

It`s my own performance, different to original version.

Clifford Lee Burton (February 10, 1962 September 27, 1986) was a bass guitarist best known for his work with the American heavy metal band Metallica from 1982 until 1986. As a bassist he was known for his unique style, which made heavy use of distortion and effects (several of which are usually associated with non-bass guitars), best exemplified on his signature piece, “(Anesthesia) Pulling Teeth”.

Burton’s early influence was essential in creating the unique musical style for which Metallica became famous. Burton joined the band in 1982 and performed on their debut album, Kill ‘Em All, which was composed of songs that had been written prior to his arrival. Burton’s influence was heavier on the follow-up, Ride the Lightning, which showcased the band’s evolving compositional technique. Burton’s final album with Metallica, Master of Puppets, was a major commercial and critical success. Burton died in 1986 when the band’s tour bus overturned in Sweden while the band was on tour promoting Master of Puppets.

Basic Home Studio Recording Equipment

admin — Sat, 10 Oct 2009 05:28:23 +0000

This is a video I made for the hundreds of people who have asked me what I use to record with. Yes there are many other things out there and I have used a few of them. This is basic recording equipment without spending thousands of dollars and sounds just as good! I know I have had most and have compared many recordings to others like Pro Tools, and it was outrageous! Good recordings but too expensive for the same recording I get with what I use in this video. M Audio was another one worthless to me! Its was not that great and needed other things to get decent recording with. I dumped those off on ebay very quickly! Sorry if you bought them from me? lol! But they sucked in many ways! PODxt has Comp,Gate and everything else you will need in it when you create your tones in the Line6 Edit for your recordings. This way you can make sure that tone sounds correct in all levels and aspects then Push SAVE! You have that tone forever to use live or recording at any time! I know there are people that dont like Line6 and everyone I have ever met in person that didn’t like it. By the time I showed them how to create a decent tone for live or recording? They wanted it before leaving my house or stage at gig. Not knowing how to use something correctly can anyone off! Even band members that were still tearing down there equipment 45 minutes later were getting tired of seeing me walk off stage in 5 minutes with everything I needed. I’m done and they are still wrapping up there guitar chords and un hooking there pedals? And they still have to carry out amps, cabinets, and everything else. I love my stacks also! There awesome! But to have to haul them back and forth when the are becoming obsolete in stage setups? Big speakers are for looks anymore with the way most stages are already setup with all the house speakers needed for gigs. The only time I need a Cabinet and a Small Combo amp is when the place im playing only has electrical outlets. Then yes! You have to have all the rest of it. Parks, Parties etc… Other than that? Get ready for the future of music!

Equipment Details Needed:

1. Line 6 PODxt / PODxt 3/ Or PODxt Pro rack mount
2. Creative – Audigy 2Zs PCI Card for Laptops or regular sound blaster sound card with front bay for regular PC’s. These are great sound cards for this. There are others, thats your preference but I would make sure they are at least 24bit Advanced HD for better recordings!
3. Guitar Tracks Pro 3 by Cakewalk. Its a 32 track digital recording software that works great for any instrument! They do have other software thats your choice also. PODxt works with any of them.
4. 1/8″ to 1/8″ Stereo cable (Gold Tipped is the best for noise reduction)
5. 1/8″ to 1/4″ Stereo Adapter

The pedals that work with the PODxts are the FBV2 or the FBV Short board

Your PC or Laptop should be a Pentium 4 or better! At least 1.73GHz processor with 1.0GB or better in memory. The more memory the less chance for what is called dropouts in the recordings. The faster processor the better speeds and quality your recording will be also. The newer type computers you should have no problems with!

PODxt Live Floor Pedal Boards I am not sure if they have the right outputs needed for computer recording? I have never looked that closely at them to see if they can? I do know the the 3 I mentioned do! The Pocket Pod is not good enough and has no outputs to really do what I do. They are a practice take on the road or short walk type thing to me. Not for live or gig use.

Other Must Haves!

Line 6 DL4 Delay Modeler:

This is a great thing to have for studio use or live use! It has a loop sampler in it that you can actually go up to 28 seconds of play that will repeat, stop. start back up by the click of a button at will! So cool to have! Solo can be worked on much easier with a repeating rhythm in the background. Then it has so many other delays in it that are really cool! Also a expression pedal that does things that cannot be re produced by any other pedal out there that I know of yet! To me right now after owning just about every top of the line amp, pedals or you name it! Line 6 is the “Best” thing I have ever used! Its going to be really hard for something to come out that I will like better than Line6!

Second Wah Pedal for cool thing to do in your playing and also a Nice amp for sure! I use Line 6 Flextone IIIXL 150 watt Combo Amp. It has all the features I need including being able to hook up into the mixer for any gig! It can also run 2 full stacks stereo with no problems! great amp!
