Haken 'Insomnia' solo playthrough with Charlie Griffiths

[@sebax6933]

Yes! I knew there was some kind of Yngwie Malsmteen / Michael Romeo influence over Insomnia solo.

[@JulienMarzanoGuitarist]

the rhythm section with this solo is also amazing

[@einpapergei7209]

nice of you to play it slow so it's easier to learn the solo :) I recently discovered Haken and I instantly fell in love with the music you make!

[@milton1448]

the classical structure is fantasic.

[@GeeorgeBeeedle]

Probably the sickest section of guitar in a Haken track to date.

[@Cotramjoxxx]

not close

[@yesrushdt]

Great solo. Cool to hear it broken down (even better with an Empire t-shirt on \m/). :)

[@MissMisstreater]

Not just any old Strat though - I believe thats the true master's strat!

[@CharlieGriffiths]

@MissMisstreater Hi Levi, I assume you refer to Shaun Baxter? Yes I bought it off him in '94 I think. Yngwie himself played it once too during a GT lesson/interview. I am of course not worthy of such lineage, which is why I'll be putting it up for sale very soon.

[@SevenTillDawn]

Would it be possible to put up a video of you playing the first part of the solo (2:57-3:39). I really want to see what you are doing in that Petrucci-esque part from 3:23-3:27. Lovin' Haken man!!

[@gatotekpote]

Sooooo coooooooool

[@SevenTillDawn]

I'm referring to the actual full song Insomnia (which I'm sure you figured out) ;) my bad

[@felphero]

fuck yes

[@Lazzflyingwithcolors]
