Beiron well I didn't say it was low I said it wasn't standard

[@metfan4l]

mike k wtf are you even talking about? A half step below standard isn't low at all (especially for a death metal song), that's my whole point. Nobody ever said it was in regular standard.

Superb ! I remember being totally amazed when I saw Pat O'Brien doing these pinched harmonics, they were so fucking clean ! Almost impossible. Each time !

[@RyanChaos.0]

Practice man. You’ll learn to hit them perfectly every time. Also, when there’s low mids and high gain it’s a lot easier to hit them

[@Dams210]

thought the same when i saw them yday evening at a small venue... had to record a few seconds of that show with my phone even if that's not too cool but had to keep a memory of that one ;) kzbin.info/www/bejne/kJStqHmwgbB5paM

[@rickmckim9226]

Ola, you are a great inspiration. My wife and I watch your FAQ videos every Sunday morning; almost religiously. Your humor has us laughing through every video. Watching your cover and "how-to" videos makes me want to start playing guitar again; I wish I had never stopped. Thank you for being you and keeping us laughing. Cheers from Oregon USA.

[@ecscottindiana]

@thors blot ernestness is deeply unsettling in these modern days. though "watch [...] every Sunday morning; almost religiously" would be hilarious if it were a straight faced, deadpan joke. didn't read it like that initially, but I can see it. also, "my wife" is always funny. love it when a dude makes that jump from a commentor to a Wife Guy

[@NutsTesticles]

you should listen to more death metal if you find cannibal corpse difficult to decipher. their production levels even on their early work is fuckin phenomenal, arguably the first band to really put effort into making it legible. Although I guess Scott Burns as the producer has a bit more input than them but still

[@bestboy897]

[@Xplora213]

No bass guitar. Easy without the bass.... Alex is a huge part of their sound. He gets better with time, and so does the production. Arguably the early stuff is better, but the tunes are easier to understand with his bass improved.

[@ironstallion7784]

I used the maxon for my attempt at playing the song Once Upon The Cross by Deicide that in result made the tones of both the pedal and My Guitar when plugged into A Mesa Boogie 100 watt Dual Rectifier Head And Hesu 2x12. Before any of you say anything I have that similar Rig anyhow because I'm in a tribute band to Cannibal Corpse, Deicide and Death i.e. the Chuck Schuldiner era of that band. I'm currently using a Marshall 1960a 4x12 because my own hesu 2x12s speakers blew up on our last gig.

WOW MAN !!! the first time i HEAR AND UNDERSTAND the guitar playing of caníbal corpse. Great video. One of the best covers you ve ever done.

[@adamc780]

Yes! Loving this series of tone-finding so far. I feel like you would've got closer to the album tone by going solid state, but this does a pretty good job of matching their live guitar tone. Hope to see even more old-school death metal stuff in future. Would be interesting to hear the Mesa A/B'ed against your Valvestate or Randall RG for this kind of tone. \m/

[@HauntedGuitarMan]

Cool. Cannibal corpse was one of the best bands I've seen live. Sounded very huge.

[@Vanes-NL]

[@ryanmethric1029]

This has to be one of the best death metal riffs ever!

[@Kevin.Kelly.]

Should have used one of those old solid state Crate heads with the distortion pedal boosts they used to use. Can you do a video on their old tone?

[@Kevin.Kelly.]

GX130C with a Metal Master distortion pedal boost with a metal zone for the other guitar. That’s what I know, anyway.

[@Ozterkvlt]

can confirm, this is the way to old school br00tz

[@Admiral_Bongo]

Kevin Kelly Pretty sure in their GX130C period they didn't use anything as a boost. Though it does sound really cool with TS in front. They did boost Valvestates with a Metal Zones in the early 90s, though.

[@Kevin.Kelly.]

Admiral Bongo: Yeah they did. You can’t get that gorey, sludgy, bloody, death sound without a boost. Especially not with that amp by itself. Just listen to that saturated tone on “The Bleeding”. They used a Digitech Metal Master and a Metal Zone on top of amp distortion with that amp. Entombed and other bands mix distortions to get that death metal sound. Definitely an active EMG pickup as well.

[@snackersnew]

Kevin Kelly the cannibal corpse sound is a marshall plexi with a tube screamer in front, but with no gain

[@mathisto21]
