Michael "Padge" Paget on Soloing Ideas

[@MartyReilly85]

Padge and Jay are the coolest persons I have ever had the pleasure of meeting and have incredible talent I was backstage years ago in Glasgow with them then went dancin with jay after the show. They are soo nice and down to earth. Credit to the music industry and they FUCKING ROCK!!!

[@bulletmaniac69]

it sounds so different when you play it that slowly, like a piece written by beethoven lol. i love it

[@theScytheofGod]

The best guitar teachers I've ever had weren't the best players, they were the ones who could explain the technique the best.

[@alexgarcia2013]

My mom listens to it too!!! We like COB and BFMV

[@smiley261963]

This DVD is an extremely valuable tool for any guitar student. I bought it for my son and it helped him improve so much. We love Bullet so he was happy to learn from Padge - Hey, will Matt make one too? Ask him will ya? ^_^

[@MrPriestyman]

I would love to see matt tuck make an instructional dvd on covering the majority of the rhythm parts and his solos and warm up tips. He is well spoken so he could make it super detailed.

[@TheBradleyClarke]

i love his guitar i love the band and when i get a jackson rhoad im sure to get the same neck inlay that gun and wave thing is amazing!!

[@PrintBean]

Saw Bullet for My Valentine LIVE at the riverstage brisbane last night! AMAZING!

[@HeAd2tOeS1234]

i love his technique :)

[@therockhousemethod]

Cool, it will be out around end of august

[@metalrules247]

that's really tight playing...not a single mistake

[@NeroGargoyl]

the last note of the solo is on the high e string, and the tuning for drop-c is c g c f a d, so it could be also drop c.

[@deatheb]

Most of everything they play is in drop C D-A-F-C-G-C. Some songs are in standard D tuning D-A-F-C-G-D. Also being that it's full step down.

[@Itachifan186]

@TheBradleyClarke The gun inlay doesn't come on Jackson guitars, Padge plays ESP guitars, so it's comes on his ESP sigs.

[@therockhousemethod]

Not sure what Hyper Cam is, but we do use Canon AH-X1 cameras for shooting and pro-tools for auido.

[@THeDUDe21892]

double note scream bend might be the best phrase ive ever heard.

[@BinciBerry]

I love that Solo .. BFMV is just the Best^^ I hope I'll get the DVD soon .. And I really like their welsh accent^^

[@CarlaMoutinhoCoelho]

He's awesome !

[@therockhousemethod]

@CodyGOfficial It is so nice when some one actually gets it, I mean really gets it. This is exactly Rock House's mantra. Zepplin, AC/DC/SabbathHendrix all simple and I think it speaks for itself. You don't have to make blazing fast and play complex compositions to be a successful guitar play. You have to play stuff that WORKS! And yes it does not mean you can't shred fast, it just means you really understand how to deliver music!

[@CodyGOfficial]

I don't get why everyone has to comment on how something is easy, or sucks because it's not blazing fast. My band does really simple stuff and people love it. But just because the bands music is simple doesn't mean i can't play some shredding shit (not trying to talk myself up) just relating to the situation. Simple can be a nice thing with music.

[@narutoxshinobi]

look it up on their website it has the links to all their gear

[@CodyGOfficial]

@kjnellis1 It's a Mesa Boogie I think... Not sure, just going by what i can see in the background.

[@japjeskat]

i love his guitar so much!! and he plays as awesome as his guitar is =D

[@Zillius_YT]

@theonelink Yes , and some Songs are in Dop C like Waking the Demon..

[@mc2alfawolf]

@Krankfishhead he's special guitarrist because his solo'sarent just randomly superfast shredding everybody can randomly shred on a guitar padge actually makes solos that work and that really sound good and melodic

[@cmcculloch1]

haha class i didnt realise how welsh' he was - theres lovely now!

[@deatheb]

They also use full step down for Say Goodnight.

[@Mr.Cheezil]

you can usually get it at any guitar center or you can just order it online.

[@velvetrevolver60]

well. one thing i can say. He knows his instrement. and he is really good. and BFMV is really good. when i first hurd of em. i just thought oh god... but when i started listening to them. i started to really like them

[@MrAnins]

I love the way you bend! =D

[@WillMarr13]

@azzans the internet, the actual ESP is like 4500 american dollars, while the LTD is around 1000. the ltd doesnt have the graphic. go to drumcityguitarland(.)com for more info

[@Distortionist]

Can i get this sound or something similar out of a hss stratocaster ?

[@ChesterBennington21]

Were can i by the DVD? I want it really bad!

[@999m4em]

@Goth3m3 active 81/85 emgs are the best for metal imo but i use ernieball strings cuse i think they are best for emg (this is my opinion)

[@therockhousemethod]

@AimFireScream thisngs dont have to be comlicated or fast to be good. Led Zeppelin, Metallica, Deep Purple, Judas Priest, AC/DC, All simple stuff but really, really good.

[@ChickenShackIRL]

i like the fret inlays

[@therockhousemethod]

That is great that you notice that... but always remember this about your playing, if you are not making mistakes you're not taking chances and exploring all you can do. No player on the planet plays anything perfect. It is understanding how to get out of that gives it the sound and appearance of playing perfect.

[@RES1DENTxEV1L]

wicked COOL !!

[@azzans]

Where can I get that guitar

[@FeatherzMcG]

Bullet NEVER use Drop D. They used Drop C for the whole of The Poison and previous tracks. They used D tuning (1 step down) for all on Scream Aim Fire except Heats Burst Into Fire, Waking the Demon, End of Days and Forever and Always, for which they also use Drop C.

[@greydelta38]

I would kill for that guitar.... It sounds great. Good tone especially out of a V body and a small head. Does anyone know what kind of amp he uses?

[@bodomaftamidnight]

can anyone tell me what kind of effect he's using??

[@Interfector35]

@oBIGxREDo Some of them are in Standart D :P

[@BONELESSMaTT]

they record with triple rectifiers if im correct

[@RussianCivilian]

freakin sick!

[@TheYassinnus96]

Dat Sound !!

[@theonelink]

@oBIGxREDo most of scream aim fire album is in standard d including this 1

[@zombiegreencard]

its not out yet why.............?

[@sickness324]

It's in standard D D-G-C-F-A-D from lowest to highest.

[@foreverSylosis777]

Hello , this DVD has english subtitles ?????

[@zombiegreencard]

does any body now when this comes out

[@billyfreeka]

@mack88888888 I thought the same the first i tried t play it! He is really good! I saw bullet live on third of december....and he shredded. it was pretty awsome ;-)

[@sickness324]

Since Scream AIM FIRE album came out. Not all there songs are in D but Scream aim and fire are is one of the songs are in D/ Listen to the open note at the end of the solo. Tha'ts clearly D lol

[@jkol323]

what tuning?

[@EdGhidora5532]

@Margie G. how much was it?

[@skrew255]

actually scream aim fire is in drop D only waking the demon is in drop c from that album

[@Tys602]

@TheBradleyClarke but he doesnt use a jackson randy rhoas. he uses a ESP king V style guitar

[@thorsten_cit]

hehe wo kommste denn her? xD hab auch ein paar vids...

[@RoAdHaVoC]

except the crazy train and saniterium covers, bfmv plays in drop c or d standard

[@therockhousemethod]

Evilsonic7 , Sorry about that, I totally messed up and forget to give our web guy the code. It should be fine by morning but until then you can use code FX123789. I'm human!

[@Justicemaker]

and in the background is another guitar so hes teaching Drop C and Standard D songs ;) on performances they change their guitars too

[@bewaretheclair]

i want the inlays on his guitar!

[@Dazetih]

@23Rogan * Mesa Boogie Triple Rectifier 100W Head * Mesa Boogie Rectifier 4X12 Slanted Cabinet

[@NeroGargoyl]

Since when BFMV play their songs in D-Standard?

[@yomammaonastick]

sounds like some castlevania shit when its played slowly haha

[@TheGuitarmad26]

@98Pith93 hes welsh

[@BFMVMADNESS]

that is fucking ridiculous how is that possible jesus!! LEGEND \m/

[@MetalcoreLover94]

@jkol323 D standard im pretty sure

[@ribits12]

Hello there fellow metalheads. Instead of a Metal Rebellion i propose a new plan. 1. Instead of bashig other metal artists, we need to unite. We cant fight against pop music if we arent even together 2. Watch more and other metal videos to get it to the top of the youtube video list 3. Instead of bashing pop, promote metal with logical reasons, not just "METAL RULES!! If you like this idea, thumbs it up JUST so people can see it, and also spread it around if you like this idea \m/

[@23Fists]

On it's own, it kinda reminds me of Atreyu xD I've NEVER noticed that before

[@TheShadyPenguin]

Guitar Hero charts lots of shit wrong.

[@joey1364]

good guitarist this is the easiest solo ever lol good job explaining it though i would deffinately buy this dvd cause hes awsome

[@timster5]

@julle41 no bullet allways play drop c

[@RodolfoAlvarez66]

he has emg pickups =)

[@HObo478]

the second section sounds very similar to 4 words to choke upon

[@TheMarkOfRamos]

@jkol323 drop c i think

[@jacksback1021]

wow hes got a really strong south wales accenct

[@samymasta]

@lalakiller54 mesa boogie triple rectifiers I BET

[@HeavenlyArmed]

This proves that guitar hero charted it wrong. The taps are triplet style and the beginning only has one of each higher note and three notes in between. And also for all you people I'm pretty sure only one song from Scream Aim Fire was in Drop C and that was Waking the Demon. Even the Crazy Train cover was in D standard.

[@firelord2112]

wrong drop D is when you tune all for strings down one step so is D-G-C-F-A-D and drop C is C-G-C-F-A-D but you were close

[@VFKRazorback]

@givemefreakinusename I think we can judge a guitarist ONLY by what he writes. All of those famous rock guitarists, we can't really judge them by what they CAN play, because they can play pretty much everything... That won't change, no matter how many people think It's not that way. It doesn't matter how many notes a solo has, but how much feeling each of those notes have. Anyone who thinks there's a guitarist out there who learned 5 chords and got famous for it, should think again.

[@MyMissingHalf]

Hello BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE fans! We're a metal band called "My Missing Half". If you like BFMV's heavier stuff, then you might like us! Check out our music video and let us know what you think!

[@AimFireScream]

The most frustrating thing about Bullets solo's is they're not necessarily the most difficult technical wise, it's just playing it up to speed that's fuckin impossible! D:

[@Evilsonic7]

It won't even post my comments.

[@RockLineDoNotCross]

Yeah I play it slow but i can't fast..

[@deatheb]

Oh, yes. Thought you were calling me an idiot.

[@TechniqueTV]

@HeAd2tOeS1234 me too :D

[@insanejoe55]

@ribits12 dude..... this is epic. awesome idea and if it does happen metal will get more known and famous than it already is. we need to show just how fkn awesome metal is, and in my opinion is superior to pop, rap, and hip-hop. thumbs up :)

[@wolfeman85]

his guitar is sexyyyy

[@singarantia]

maybe

[@RodolfoAlvarez66]

he has emg pick ups =)

[@therockhousemethod]

Ahh hello, what is this here, is this not a comment that is posted?

[@JustinGillenMusic]

@YogSothothOfGuitars You can have all the opinion you want about their band, but you cannot deny his talent like that. He is a very good player, and you have horrible taste if you can't hear that.

[@Itachifan186]

@TheBradleyClarke That's not a Jackson Randy Rhoads it's an ESP Michael Padget V, and ESP is way better then Jackson anyways.

[@therockhousemethod]

Try again, do not give up

[@Kegyetlen92]

a men cannot find out suck a solo ... he must be a god !

[@MrSologod]

isnt this adrian smiths son

[@deatheb]

Scream Aim Fire isn't in drop D. Dude, learn your tunings. Drop D is standard tuning with a drop D.

[@Max_Kleiber]

there is none?!

[@Ozznize]

@givemefreakinusename judging by his primitive vibrato, bad tone and 18-year-old-shred-dude leads, i'd say that this is the peak of his skill
