Lynyrd Skynyrd - Free Bird (solo)

[@pessimistickris2718]

Ahhh yes, the song that instantly gives +100hp to your car. Great cover man, insane endurance🤘

[@Lucas-nu8ur]

it gives +100hp of excitement and euphoria too

[@BlazeGamesR9]

correction. +1000hp to your car.

[@IzhanZubir]

that ending though..holee sheeesh

[@McCrazi21]

Unreal… all the instruments and literally played just like the album…… oh and what seems like one take on the solo.. wow!! By far the best.

[@BretSnyderMusic]

Thank you kindly. That was a single take on the solo and it was one of the first attempts...sometimes you just get lucky.

[@McCrazi21]

@@BretSnyderMusic That's what I thought! It's so good!!!

[@randominternetman8177]

this is the only song i can think of that will make your car drift in reverse at 260 miles per hour

[@danielbrown9368]

If speeding tickets had a soundtrack

[@natureboy1228]

I've searched a lot of covers for this song and this is the best one between every single cover video of free bird. Thank you and I appreciate this effort.

[@yangerjamir0906]

Yeah, in almost all the covers I've watched they messed up the slide part.

[@rya_belladonna]

this song makes a f14 fly at mach 5 and gives it thrust vectoring

[@arashputata]

😂👌🏻

[@MikeRitland]

Absolutely incredible job on this. Easily the best cover of it I’ve seen

[@Gunma_garage]

Those syncopated bends that come into rhythm @2:28..such mastery 🤘🤙. Chills bro!! Nailed it, and the tone is so mint. Now I must gain back my calluses lol

[@cork0959]

i'm punishing myself by listening to this awesome AWESOME cover 10000x because i got a ticket the other day for going 40 over the limit with this banger on

[@BretSnyderMusic]

😂🤣🤣

[@KapiComm]

Amazing! The best Free Bird cover on KZbin

[@BeverlyRufus-rl8cz]

Dude, this is the absolute best cover of all the guitarist renditions of the original Lynrd Skynyrd band that I have ever heard. Of free bird. Gary Rossington, Allen Collins, Stevie Gains , Leon Wilkeson would be proud. This is absolutely amazing.

[@adityasworld2026]

Absolutely AMAZING playing and amazing videography man!! Never seen a cover this well done all around! Keep the good work going!

crazy cover

[@davidepaltrinieri3535]

I love this song. I discovered it thanks to GTA San Andreas. It's the first song I've ever listened on my mp3 player, great memories. Stunning cover as always, the piano part was unexpected but very appreciated :)

[@BretSnyderMusic]

Thanks for the kind words. I discovered a few songs through GTA as well tooling around with the radio on.

[@TcavanwoodworksTroyTx]

Breathtaking!! Love it!!🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠

[@oldschoolrocker257]

Great guitar tone...what effects, pedals did you use?

[@BretSnyderMusic]

Thanks! I spent a lot of time finding the right tones. I'm using a Line6 Helix. Crunch tone was a Fullerton Bright amp through an IR. The slide tone was a Derailed Ingrid through a 1x12 US Deluxe. Solo tone was Solo Lead through a 4x12 Cali V30. I tried a few different tools to make the slide guitar playable without damaging the frets. The only thing that worked well was raising the action so high on the LP that I had to intonate the saddles as far back as they'd go. Kinda worked. As far as effects go, the biggest game-changer is Waves CLA-Guitars. It really adds a lot of depth to your sound.

[@donatoelviscolangelo6442]

Per questo arrangiamento ti auguro di potere vivere il 1977! Bravissimo 👍

[@mikerootz5935]

VERY VERY GOOD. I forgot how good that sounded.

[@BretSnyderMusic]

Thanks Mike!

[@mikerootz5935]

@@BretSnyderMusic That song was played at many of high school dances I attended.. It's amazing how a song brings back many emotions.. and how how much emotion goes into playing it on guitar. Bret, looking forward to seeing more of your videos.. Question: do you do any live shows? See ya pal. Mike

[@BretSnyderMusic]

@@mikerootz5935 You're dating yourself. Back in the late 70's then? Thanks for the kind words. I don't do any live shows; only place I play is here.

Are you 1/2 down by any chance. It sounds tuned down. Good performance either way.

[@BretSnyderMusic]

Yes, it's tuned down half a step. Good ear.

[@francescocirillo7631]

Amazing😳

[@tommydargydarg1775]

What’s the riff right at the very end? 6:00

[@citrusimonum]

I think this riff is figured out by the author himself (I mean the author of the video)

[@BretSnyderMusic]

That riff is from a live version of Dream Theater's cover

[@lowstrife]

What's right before that? It feels SO familiar but I just cannot place it. 5:39

Can you give any of marty friedman's solos a go on rust in piece album? Hangar 18 (11 epic solos) Lucretia, Tornado of souls etc etc

The only speeding ticket I ever would have received happened while driving to this song. “Would have.” As if the officer could catch me, he shook his head and didn’t even try, he could feel my free vibe drive away like a hit of nitro. And he smiled.
