I remember meeting Shawn while he toured with Black Oak Arkansas in Mexico City with singer Jim Dandy when he was 16 . Even at tgat young age he was an incredible musician and he was incredibly humble about his gifted playing. He is sorely missed but never forgotten. Love you bro ! Rock on forever !!

Some people just have God given talent. You can practice all you want, but practice doesn't make you play that clean. You can either do it or you can't. Gilbert or Malmsteen doesn't plan faster today than they did 20 years ago. They may learn different phrasing or techniques, but I don't believe you gain speed the more you practice. There's just a hand/brain capability you can't teach.

Pedro Omar Soto Where is your evidence that Shawn opened for Rising Force? I would say those musical styles wouldn't be a good match for any concert promoter to have done. Where is the news article that mentioned Yngwie refusing to do a concert and all the fans getting pissed? Plus, 1985 Lane was playing with a Memphis bar band, The Willys, so no, he didn't open for Malmsteen.

Why do these guys always use reverb, delay, etc., when trying to do an instructional video? It's just plain stupid. Heck, why do they even use distortion and overdrive? Unless it's a lick or phrase that requires distortion and overdrive in order to make it sound a certain way, it only gets in the way of hearing every pick, pull, hammer, etc. These guys need to quit trying to hide. Let it all hang out, fellas.

@TruthSurge9 жыл бұрын
Ignore14 Reverb, delay.... it's part of most guitarists sound. If someone is showing you THEIR style and sound, then they are not going to turn off the distortion and delay because that isn't what they use on the records. What if you bought a Van Halen instruction vid and it was Eddie and he had a totally clean tone and was playing all his distorted songs that way. ? It would sound like total shit. Obviously this guy has never watched other Shawn Lane vids where he is showing you some lick from one of his tunes. He's got a little too much delay in this vid but to say every guitarist should just turn off the distortion and effects is rather ill-informed. If you are watching a Shawn Lane vid it's rather expected that you are not a newb. And Shawn SHOWS you where he's putting his fingers and you can see his pick hand. You don't even need sound for that.
