How to get that classic IRON MAIDEN - Somewhere in Time - GUITAR SOUND

[@dennist.4155]

Best Maiden Album ever🙏❤️🤘❤️🙌🙌🙌🙌

[@EugeValovirta230V]

One of my all time favourites 👌.

[@primaballerina84]

Also! One of the best metal albums ever made!

[@EugeValovirta230V]

🤘

[@saturnskull1242]

My personal favorite!

[@philipdeppen2890]

By far their best. Its the only album they did where I like every song on an album. The use of synthesizers was done perfectly and the melodies to songwriting to the whole epic feel is just incredible. Its actually my personal favorite album of all time. There is no album I listen to more then somewhere in time. These guys were on point as a band with this album. Epic shit lol

[@iloveitall]

This channel is a huge relief from all the common guitar youtubers. Go on. We players owe you alot!

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Oh thanks! Really glad to hear! 🙏☺️

[@orenkn]

So true!!!

[@MattyMorrissey]

First In Flames and now Maiden? This channel is pure gold!

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Thanks Matt! 😎🙏☺️

Exactly! You got my sub. Sounds awesome

[@EugeValovirta230V]

☺️🙏

[@ElevatedLevetator]

i need this tone. Impossible to get it just right though. Omg adrians tone on this album is incredible. Probably one of the best tones ive ever heard. so unique.

[@EugeValovirta230V]

👌🔥

[@samunden]

I remember staring at that album art on this one for hours while listening to it over an over. You nailed the tone.

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Likewise. Thanks Scott!

[@thatampguy]

Same here! Still remember the smell of the new cds and tape inserts 😂

[@gooberthoreau]

I know it isn't popular, but my all time favorite Maiden record (by miles) is Somewhere in Time.

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Great album indeed 🤟👌.

[@samusranzer]

I think that even Maiden dislike this album. Can't wait for their next tour. I wish they would ever play 7th Son live again, and Alexander The Great. I would lose it if they do it XD

[@CBT5777]

It's actually a lot of peoples favorite Maiden record. It's my favorite.

[@mathias6423]

Somewhere in time and Seventh Son are Maidens absolute best. Brave New World is also good for a more modern album.

[@DeepakIyerp]

You're not alone

[@argh6666]

I very rarely ever say that for a KZbin video, but congratulations on such a fantastic content. You should be proud of this 👍👏👌

[@brown.dogmcgee]

another great video - i`m a big fan of your playing - so much oldschool metal and very tasty - your flow ist amazing

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Thanks man!

[@Orkwort]

It's a glorious guitar sound and the way the bass harmonises with it is genius.

[@EugeValovirta230V]

👌🤟😎

[@shainowen2520]

New idea, Edge of thorns or Hall of the mountain King, Savatage

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Oh it’s been a while so maybe I need to visit that album again 😎.

[@shainowen2520]

@@EugeValovirta230V yes.... Classic. I jam to it all the time. We use to play a lot of Savatage in my high-school metal band. EVIL GREEN... Good ol backyard keg parties

[@TheCyberMantis]

Mountain King is such a killer song. Classic 80's power metal.

[@АлександрЗахаркин-ж2б]

Man your playing is just mindblowing! Strafing through your vids just to listen your playing parts! Cause i'm personally too noob to learn, even though i'm having hamer cali elite - just an museum thing to me ;D

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Oh thanks! Really glad to hear!

[@wtffrankreich6873]

New sound for the band, it was an amazing album, and the solo of the first track is one of my favourite of the Irons.

[@EugeValovirta230V]

🤘🎼🎸

[@lostwoods]

Very cool video. My favorite Iron Maiden album! So many great solos. I especially love Adrian Smith's phrasing on this album and his whammy bar vibrato.

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Thanks! One of my favourites too!

[@TMoody]

KILLER..... would love to see this whole album done live in it's entirety.

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Thanks! Would be awesome indeed 👌.

Ohh, the nostalgia. Somewhere in Time was my first ever owned LP. Must have been 8 years old or something. In that time childrens music scene wasn't polluted with Smurfs, or whatever other nonsense, thank god... but nevertheless, oh boy, the guitar tone still raises goosebumps. It's god damn beatifull! And you really captured that same essence here once again. Beautiful. Thank you. Keep 'em coming.

[@firelandmetalImI]

it sound very close, I own a Gallien Krueger 250ML. in the output of the preamp it mix in parallel, stereo chorus, original signal and the stereo echo. the echo is a BBD short multitap delay with some feedback. It is a very nice amp.

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Thanks! Yeah that’s quite an amp indeed 👌😎.

[@randy6999]

This is the way, my buddy bought the amp in 1986 because of this album and still has it. It was common knowledge if you are an old fart. Plug into one it screams Somewhere in Time

[@rflessati]

Amazing tone!! Best video Ive seen of this classic album. Listening to those harmonies with the bass felt very inspiring.

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Thanks! ☺️🙏

[@igormizrahi]

Maiden used Gallien-Krueger ml-250 amps on this record 🙂

[@olirossow3179]

Thats what I remember too 😉 These Transistor-heads...

[@igormizrahi]

@@olirossow3179 it was a combo. You can find a photo in the net. Adrian Smith sitting with his Jackson near this amp.

Ah yes it was that! Thanks for reminding 😎👌.

[@igormizrahi]

@@EugeValovirta230V 🤘🤘🤘

[@powercourageandwisdom]

I have this amp. I've had it since '89?? It was a fun amp to take to your buddies house with your guitar since it is a lunch box combo. Plus I've plug it into a 4x12 and didn't sound bad as Maiden clearly showed. It's been stored in my garage for at least 23 years. time to dust it off, plug in and see if it still works.

[@BS-gj5ot]

Killer playing and sound.

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Thanks!

[@vondragonnoggin]

Amazing time for Iron Maiden and the tour for that album was out of this world. Saw them in 86 for Somewhere In Time tour. Up the Irons! 🤘🏻 In the Studio they changed up to Solid State Galien Krueger 250 ML’s. Live they used Marshall’s and Galien Krueger 250 RL (rack version of 250 ML) The Galien Krueger 250 ML and RL had built in chorus.

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Indeed! 👌🤘

Great video Euge! I used to play parts of this song a long time ago, but I always had trouble with the solo. Thanks to you, I will take another serious look at it. I am a little better than I used to be, so I think I can play more of this one now. It's a great song, and a great album. A true classic. C-D-E formula Maiden is known for! I had forgotten about the Gallien Krueger ml250 they used on this album. Thanks for making this video. You nailed this one! Fun song, that is not too hard to play. ( At least the main parts. )

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Thanks man! 🙏👌😊

[@rockvenom]

I've been wanting to replicate this album sound and I was very close, but you helped me out to get the sound I was looking for, thank you very much, you don't know how much does it mean for me!!!

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Glad to hear this! Thanks!

[@rockvenom]

@@EugeValovirta230V one little suggestion would be to use two delays instead of just one the first one with a very short delay, and the second one would be the one indicated in the video, it is jus a subtle difference but gets so much closer to the Somewhere in Time sound!

[@EugeValovirta230V]

That’s what I had 😎. It’s a stereo delay and automatically does that when inserted into a stereo track 😉👌.

[@keithspargo9722]

I believe the missing "last mile" of tone here is the fact that Smith and Murray used Roland guitar synths to track the album. That being said, this is the damn closest I have seen to getting there through more traditional/available means. Great job Euge, I'm gonna pick up an extra chorus pedal and try to get close to what you've got!

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Thanks man!

[@cristianfcao]

Nice video! Here's a suggestion for a similar one: Painkiller by Judas Priest. The guitar in that album sounds extra sharp and crispy, and I have NO idea how they made that sound.

[@low_e_music]

Great tone and playing! They did indeed use the Gallien Krueger 250ML on both Somewhere in Time and Seventh Son of a Seventh Son. I have read that they actually mic'd up the two 6.5" speakers in the combo but that seems quite hard to believe. Either way, killer albums and tone. Great job recreating it! Also, seeing that JCM800ZW really makes me miss mine, should have never sold it.

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Thanks!

[@metalinsights9664]

Do you remember where you read that?

[@low_e_music]

@@metalinsights9664 I don't remember the exact site name. There are comments on other KZbin videos saying it too but who is to say whether that is true or not. I mic'd up the speakers in mine and recorded it on my channel and it definitely gets in that realm. With better technique and a better ear, I am sure it could get pretty close.

Of course we all know the reason for that classic iron maiden sound was because of the Gallien Kreuger 250 ML amplifier that was used. That amp is also used by Def Leppard, Rush, and even Death.

They`ve been used Gallien Krueger solid state amps with stereo speakers and inbuilt analog stereo chorus on Somewhere in Time and Seventh Son of the Seventh Son. :)
