Polyphia - Playing God Guitar cover

[@sjcajw7]

The aggressive forehead scratch at the end tells me that it was itching for a while but he couldn't stop playing to scratch. That's the sign of a truly dedicated musician.

[@Chris-bz3iy]

Dumb ass comment. Obviously he's not gonna stop playing to scratch lmao

You just made me skip the whole cover just to verify that

That’s something only a fellow musician would notice lol

He wins at life. 1. Godlike playing 2. Handsome 3. Good sense of style 4. Has loyal followers and the respect of his peers I respect you as a man.

well... hate to break it to you, but he might be editing together the best takes together, and then playing that audio over a video where it looks like he gets it right... just because the video is one take, doesn't mean the audio is...

When I see a cover like this im not only impressed by the person capable of the cover but it gives me a new appreciation for the level of refinement the original piece has. Truly a crazy standard of precision.

I was already awe-struck at how unbelievably good this was, but then at 2:42 I completely lost my mind. That's usually the part where I see other guitarists struggle to get it clean, but you NAILED it.

[@aaartem]

By far the best cover of playing god. Perfect tone, perfect mixing, can hear your guitar clearly, you never disappoint! How many hours do you think you spent practicing this?

[@yuichi112]

[@Jerry-tg2lj]

Chabboey made drum track to practice to, just search 'playing god isolated drums' it starts from the first shredd bit after the main riff so keep that in mind

[@yuichi112]

Thank you soooo much !!

[@abikyoukan2]

loved how you mixed scotts part with tims part at 0:43. i was hoping to hear scotts harmonic run there but you made it sound really good

[@Jerry-tg2lj]

it is interesting, the actual harmonics arent the hardest part of scotts run, but i guess he wanted to include both

[@yuichi112]

oh! Glad to hear it!

[@efthimismallios614]

Actually what Yuichi plays is exactly what the right side of the original track plays. The run with the harmonics in the end is what Scott does only in his cover video. But play the original song and listen only to the right side and you will see its exactly what Yuchi play in this video

[@teepz04]

@@efthimismallios614 nah the harmonics are quiet but still audible in the original

[@psionic6126]

No you didn't!!!! You did! Nice! Thank You. I've tried to play this like every single day but the last part, the wild arpeggio stuff is one of the hardest things i've ever seen. Let's just say we define a new benchmark here: Anyone who can play this track is a beast!

That's right! That part is hard!!!😊
