[@ckdotdotdot]

that distorted tone is just gorgeous

[@littleredguitars2]

its pretty much what i use for everything. i never really change it

[@Yoyoyojohn]

@@littleredguitars2 what is it?

[@coby4480]

Tom’s splashy guitar tone and Mark’s metallic bass tone have to be the best combo in rock history.

[@chrisday5341]

That tone is dead on man.

[@CC-8891]

He's got the three magic ingredients. The SH8 invader, the mesa boogie, and the hardtail strat.

[@blacktaxi2d]

it kills me that music like blink will never be as good and popular as it once was

[@littleredguitars2]

yeah thats life man.

[@leftywith4strings201]

Henry M maybe someday

[@philiptnt]

At least it was popular

[@deoanh8671]

Have Hope. Pop Punk will rise again.

[@davineuskens21]

You never know, man

[@darkknightszy4674]

This may just be my favorite track off Enema of the State. Sounds killer man!

[@QTRResearch]

That opening riff brings me right back...such memories...

[@jonesbones5181]

Dude I love how this guy actually plays well. I’ve listened to a lot of blink-182 covers and his are kinda the best just because he finds ways to sound a lot like them

[@user-vc5rp7nf8f]

the part after the picking when you just let it ring out sounds so good

[@alanderossi2816]

tone is mint dude

[@dog8438]

I seriously need to know how you get that tone. It's so on point

[@littleredguitars2]

axe fx 2

[@dog8438]

[@thomasdewaele5011]

Most accurate covers, amazing guitar sound, bravo!

[@dog8438]

Wow this sounds really good! I'd love to see some Neighborhoods like Ghost On The Dance Floor, After Midnight, or Wishing Well. Or something from Dogs Eating Dogs

[@destiny6027]

This song makes me so happy

[@EasyTarget82]

One of if not my favorite song off enema

[@wielandt88]

Sweet - I've got a crush on that DeLonge Squier!

[@AlexFarleyMusic]

I liked this video because your music at the end sounds great!

[@littleredguitars2]

glad you enjoyed it!

[@snoopy7966]

That's so funny. In class today I was looking all over for strat bodies and invader pickups to build Tom's strat. You're video hit the spot.

[@lordlyon9764]

Man you are unbelievable. Ive been tryin to relearn blink songs since i stopped playing about 10 year's ago. You give me huge inspiration but also a feeling of like...welp ill never be as gnarly as this guy lol. Great job dude

[@jacobreinhart8078]

Just discovered your channel man. Love Blink and love your dedication to covering them all these years my man. 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@littleredguitars2]

thanks jacob!

[@vector361]

Man it just sounds so good

[@aj502]

Totally easy song to play but you nailed it, esp with the tone. :)

[@ralphcazes2432]

I could watch you play for hrs. And your music sounds really good as well. That guitar has an awesome tone. Keep making videos. You Rock!!🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@theoldbuilding4818]

Good to see you back with the Blink covers Jon

[@himynamelscolin]

That power slide, baby!!!

[@maritocba4]

estoy escuchando todos tus covers !!!!! muy bueno !!! abrazo

[@basilio182]

That tone is really spot on...

[@atticus182fob]

Spot on! Love these new videos and the new guitar.

[@clampsonefive1748]

this dude is so perfect

[@Sowrk]

Fantastic

[@williansrocha4028]

O tom da sua guitarra e perfeito, show demais 🇧🇷saudações 182.

[@NeonStorms]

LOVE

[@lucasporter1800]

You should do some boxcar racer re-covers

[@19guitarshredder]

Spot on as always xD loving it man

[@Jma952]

The himynameismark website alludes to, what I believe may be, a new signature bass. Hoppus switched to a jaguar recently so that may be a good opportunity for him to cash in.

[@littleredguitars2]

skiba definitely influence him to check out the jag style i think. granted i know hoppus always loved jazzmasters and such. so i wouldnt be surprised if he came out with a new sig. especially since the pbass isnt in production as far as i know

[@Yuri-Miki]

Good Job!!!

[@vashkun1]

Nailed it my dude

[@kennymarks4884]

Great cover dude.

[@hatomateable]

another amazing ocver!! please tell me is this the axe fx 2 yur using? and what amp sound on it?? im gonna buy one just becau of you!! please write back to me if you can. thanks so much :)

[@JG-xg3zm]

Best covers on YT!

[@Lee-vu3ob]

Fuck Dude, way to make me feel old! Awesome stuff!

[@dominikgoliasch7188]

Fuckin' nice man.

[@jacobmothershed6975]

what pedal are you using for the intro??? and the rest too lol

[@alexrey5175]

Is that just a flanger effect in the intro and bridge?

[@Giablo1]

i just got a fender jazz master special in today, really really liking it. you a fan of jazz masters at all?

[@littleredguitars2]

they're cool but i dont care for the JM tremolos

[@Giablo1]

hmm, i adore a good whammy bar. really makes anything you play more dynamic if chosen to be. cant deny the extremely good looking body and color

[@jacktheriffermaskedguitari3037]

Im a big metal head, dimebag got me to really love it, but tom made me pick up the guitar. Great job john.

[@rotemshoshani424]

Same story Maybe Dimebag was a bigger guitar influence on me, Tom is still the one who made me pick up the instrument in the 1st place

[@Tom_Batterbee]

great job. i have an off topic question. you said in an older video you was fitting an invader in your es335. how did that turn out? i have the tom delonge es 333 i hardly ever use it as its so bright and also its to light to play like theres no feeling through the strings like a les paul if that makes any sense . any tips would be great thanks tom

[@littleredguitars2]

it was awful. i swapped it for something else fairly quickly. would not recommend.

[@draculina182]

YES this is awesome 😇😍

[@nihaalsandim9986]

Can you please tell how did you do this or make a video i really wanna know how did u create such an accurate voice of the guitar please please

[@yudimardika2859]

Please take me by the hand It's so cold out tonight I'll put blankets on the bed I won't turn out the light, just Don't forget to think about me And I won't forget you "I'll write you once a week", she said Why does it feel the same to fall in love or break it off? And if young love is just a game, then I must have missed the kick-off Don't depend on me to ever follow through on Anything, but I'd go through hell for you, and I haven't been this scared in a long time And I'm so unprepared, so here's your valentine Bouquet of clumsy words, a simple melody This world's an ugly place, but you're so beautiful to me I'll think about the times She kissed me after class, and She put up with my friends I acted like an ass, I'd Ditch my lecture to watch the girls play soccer Is my picture still hanging in her locker? I haven't been this scared in a long time And I'm so unprepared, so here's your valentine Bouquet of clumsy words, a simple melody This world's an ugly place, but you're so beautiful I haven't been this scared in a long time And I'm so unprepared, so here's your valentine Bouquet of clumsy words, a simple melody This world's an ugly place, but you're so beautiful

[@littleredguitars2]

Why

[@ernestopatiga364]

Dude what's the tune and can you put some tabs also for your fellow aspiring guitarist

[@Ahmadelphe]

Tom delonge guitar 1999?

[@Magst3r1]

What is the effect at the start and bridge? Flanger or chorus?

[@littleredguitars2]

Im not using any modulation effect

[@Magst3r1]

​@@littleredguitars2how did you get that sound then?

[@littleredguitars2]

Sometimes mixing multiple guitar parts (mine plus toms) that sound close can create a natural chorus effect on its own

[@jangulo619]

Hey bro how do you learn the songs? By ear or with the help of tabs?

[@19guitarshredder]

Hey man, were you using a flanger or a phaser for that opening tone? Thanks.

[@littleredguitars2]

Nope

[@felipequezadaespinoza9689]

Hey dude what do you recomend to me to sound like tom squier ?have a fender strat mim or the tom delinge strs squier?

[@paulyC]

I'm no expert, but as long as you have a 'strat' style guitar with a humbucker in the bridge, you're pretty much ok.

[@davidarciniega3604]

Quarantine time and just decided to listen to blinks albums and feeling like I’m in the 90’s and forgot to where a mask 😂

[@fransetyaalfi3262]

what is the tune you've used fot this song?

[@littleredguitars2]

Standard. Capo on 2

[@sarchingriterang5980]

Can you please do a tutorial of this song for acoustic

[@poppunkdave6823]

Awesome again! Is is just flange for the clean parts? The tone is spot on 🤘

[@littleredguitars2]

phaser. and thank you

[@poppunkdave6823]

littleredguitars2 oh OK thanks 👍

[@ComedyJakob]

Speaking of old Tom songs, did you watch that Ernie Ball documentary about Tom? He played some classic blink riffs and my theory is that he practiced the shit out of them before the interview. I've seen a spontaneous DeLonge performance and know how bad he can be lol I think he really didn't want to fuck up his own stuff in the movie.

[@paulyC]

No doubt. Tom's not the type of guitar player to pick up a guitar and just start shredding.

[@mattheimbaugh5471]

Amp distortion or pedal?

[@MrRagekeepers]

So, when will we be seeing a Not Now cover? ;)

[@littleredguitars2]

June 18th 2019

[@gavincarper]

littleredguitars2 damn nice

[@zapret_rock]

🤘🤘🤘👍

[@Yuri-Miki]

Крутой кавер💯💯💯

[@dillonbija9592]

I know straight down stroke for the verse is how tom plays it but doing that makes your hand so tired ha

[@dillonbija9592]

Actually I was trying to play it way too fast haha

[@CJones5050]

You fucking killed it man. Way better than the guy they have now. Thank you

[@zachparker1901]

What do you think about the ES333

[@littleredguitars2]

big and bulky.

[@letsgoladodgers]

We’re are the tabs??

[@littleredguitars2]

What tabs?

[@mattburgs8491]

Do man overboard

[@Tyt130]

More tutorials please 😊

[@littleredguitars2]

Become a patreon supporter and suggest it

[@Tyt130]

littleredguitars2 How do I do that?

[@random3785]

It’s that day finally when you say fuck it’s been nearly 10years of me playing guitar. I’ve always loved blink and I know not one of there songs. And you say to yourself. I’m gonna learn “going away to college” first

[@xXSteve1021Xx]

I feel like there's 30 different ways to play this song for me this is the hardest song to figure out howto play on the album just because of the different ways to play it Still can't get it right

[@Bigale06]

Play asthenia!!

[@rilo7167]

Dude, your tone and your playing is so badass! You have got to replace Skiba😂

[@Rathalos76]

Riley Sears dude please yes, replace him lmfao. Thanks for inspiring me to pick up guitar, I absolutely love the way you play and I hope I can do some of these songs one day
