Alright guys, here it is. =) Sudden Death Guitar Hero Vs. Real Guitar! This song is the hardest song I've learned so far. I had to learn it by ear because there weren't any tabs online that were really correct. =O I want to thank Dave Mustaine and Megadeth for giving us permission to play these songs and I have to take my hat off to Dave/Chris/Megadeth because this song is freaking tough. I hope you guys like the video!
If you'd like to check out the other 2 Megadeth songs, I'll have the links below. =D Let us know what you think!

I may be a wierd case, but before I started playing real guitar, I played guitar hero. while it did not help me develop dexterity or playing speed for real guitar, it seemed to help with rhythm guitar.

Lol

[@Rude_i_Wredne]

Infact, he still can't, you can see that he divided song into sections and recorded them separately. That means: It's obvious, he can't do everything first try. It's really possible he does not have the stamina for the entire song. Some transitions might be awkward. Especially in Dave's part, since he's the one doing the intro solo. However tech-FCing this monster of a song on a real guitar is still very impressive.

[@vyrodwarvenking]

Both are actually very hard. On a real guitar, you need very accurate muscle memory, which can take years to achieve and actually get as good as phenomenal guitarists out there. While in Guitar Hero, you need VERY fast hand and eye coordination which I don't have and I play Guitar and Guitar hero. I have way more muscle memory when it comes to life, while in guitar hero... when I play, I play on Expert BARELY. I usually play on Medium and Hard with hyper speed maxed out. While in Guitar I can play about 5 or 6 songs, some of which are intros and some like Silent Lucidity and Give a little bit, which those songs I can complete. In this case, this is a tie on which of the 2 groups are harder.

[@ThePimV]

I always find strumming to rythm on guitar hero to harder then on real guitar for some reason.

[@NeinTails]

I got pretty much the opposite. I get fives stars on 99,8% of all Guitar Hero songs on Expert (still gotta do TTFAF and Jordan by heart) while on real guitar I can't play any fast solos. Frankly, I wish it was otherwise. Real music never dies while Guitar Hero is dead.

[@vyrodwarvenking]

NeinTails95NL That is because you play Guitar Hero more than you do the real guitar.

[@NeinTails]

I don't play any Guitar Hero today and should play more real guitar today. Somehow I just do not seem to improve and that gets me a little demotivated.

[@soggybons]

NeinTails95NL Something I've learned over my years of playing guitar is that you can never expect instant or even quick results. I have been playing guitar nearly every day for almost 8 years, and only on a handful of days have I been able to step back and tell myself that I have improved since when I last played. Playing guitar takes years of building up your hand muscles and muscle memory, and it may seem like an impossible task, but if you stick with it and just practice the kind of music that you're into, then trust me, the rewards will be better than anything you would even imagine. :)

[@llGemini19]

I hate when people compare guitar hero to playing a real guitar. To me it's like trying to compare DDR or actual dancing. They're not even close to being on the same playing field so why compare the two?

[@Dornogol]

Well, It always bothers me, when guitar hero either changes between you playing lead or rhythm guitar throughout one song (goddmanit -.-) so in comparsion you can realize this (if you only know guitar hero) for the first time. Also I want to know if they atleast try to mimic the finger pose for gutar hero or jsut go by what button would be best to use for the higher/lower next section.

[@matthewmcsherry2719]

It's like comparing need for speed to real driving. LMFAO

[@technomage6736]

+Dornogol You called it. Between having to play notes from both lead and rythm, coupled with the fact that you have to hit every note on the same string, means GH is no joke. Those extra strings on a real guitar helps save your fret hand some serious work. While certainly different, people underestimate GH difficulty when comparing the 2.

[@technomage6736]

hemmo haavisto I have. You actually have to play for a while to build up callouses (did I spell that right?) on your fingers. It's certainly harder, but as I said, people underestimate the difficulty of GH.

[@stftea]

Sexclipse hes not comparing them hes just making a video to show people what the differences are

[@AlphaOmegaSin]

I think Mr. Mustaine would have to agree that you did a very metal job \m/

[@RockandMetal645]

Okay, let's put it into perspective when to people who say Guitar Hero is harder than Real Guitar. In Guitar Hero, you have 5 different color buttons and a strum bar. Convert it to a real guitar that's 1 string and 5 frets. Let's use Danny's guitar as an example: If we reverse the conversion, his guitar has 24 frets and 6 strings. Therefore 24 colored buttons per strumbar. Even with if we just took one strumbar and counted every fret as a different color, that still gives you 144 different colored buttons for a real guitar. Therefore: Real Guitar is MUCH harder. No hate on Guitar Hero. In fact I started playing because of Guitar Hero. I love the game, it got me into music I would probably not listen to normally and I I've started my collection of guitars because of it. Great game, but It's DEFINITELY easier than a real guitar. I can probably play most of the songs from Guitar Hero but definitely suck at making it sound good lmao tl;dr Real Guitar is definitely harder than Guitar Hero, but both are just as fun.

[@alkillsall4844]

RockandMetal645 I agree totally. Guitar Hero has probably made my playing worse over the past few months, as I've become highly dependent on an on-screen display for my playing. That's mainly why I got rid of Rocksmith. I've had my guitar since last Christmas, and so far I've learned the intro to "Pull Me Under" by Dream Theater, and bits and pieces of "Toxicity" by System Of A Down, and those took me about 3 hours of continuous practice just to learn them. Right now, even thinking about learning either song fully makes my brain hurt. I have to tip my hat off to anyone who can play full songs on a guitar, cause they've put a lot of hard work into learning those.

[@aprilgilbrech3250]

I definitely agree about it,cause the guitar hero guitar uses buttons but a real guitar is just harder than you expect. So don't say guitar hero is harder than real guitar cause if that's what you think,well think again! Real guitar is a actual hard instrument,it uses strings instead of color buttons used replace the strings.

[@VoidSixx]

April Gilbrech Al Kills All RockandMetal645 As much sense as that makes it simply isn't true. Some songs like One for example I can do most of it pretty easily, including some of the solo, on a real guitar, however in gh3 the moment the tapping solo hits I just lose it. Took me many attempts and lots of star power to get past it on the career. There are many cases where real guitar is much harder. For example the chugging sections on Almost Easy is almost easy (get it? Ok ok, I'm going) on guitar hero, but it took a bit of practice for me to get the chugging, and especially the weird chords right on a real guitar.

[@alkillsall4844]

AirCommando12 Everyone has a different opinion on whether or not Guitar Hero is tougher than real guitar. Some people find playing guitar very easy, but playing Guitar Hero to be very difficult. For others, it's vice versa. It's not so much a matter of which one is more difficult to learn. It's more of a matter of which one has a steeper learning curve, which is real guitar, obviously. Learning to play a real guitar is much more complicated, but certain people have a much easier time learning it than others. I see where your coming from, but you have to realize that your arguement is based solely off of YOUR playing abilities. How difficult something is is based solely on that particular person's abilities. Obviously you are much more skilled at real guitar than you are at Guitar Hero, which is a good thing because I am the opposite.

[@VoidSixx]

Al Kills All This is the argument I was making. It's the other guy that was making out that guitar hero is always easier for everyone. Also, you said everyone has a different opinion on weather guitar hero is tougher or not, and then you go on to say guitar has a steeper learning curve.

i play guitar hero and guitar, and learning this song on guitar is easier, because when u think about it, u have the whole fret board, guitar hero has only 5 buttons, and the whole song is compacted into it, u have to move ur fingers 3 x faster than u would playing it on a real guitar. but in the end it what u feel more comfortable with, people may just now have good eye to hand coordination.

[@MilkandDyskit]

λlvaro AkA Lawliet only if you dont spend the same amunt of practice time on the shitty easy toy.Its not a real comparison unless you practice guitar hero for the SAME number of years youve played real guitar. I bet you youd be able to master the fake version looooooooooong before the real one. other than that youre basically saying you arent as used to the fake version as th real. Doesn't make it harder just bc you havnt practiced it as much

[@9Erra]

Lennon Mcharristar Both the game and real guitar require lots of practice, but you're right, mastering real guitar would take a lot more time, though mastering guitar hero the way this guys does isn't easy at all, after all he earned some guinness records playing it.

***** Yea i used to play expert hyperspeed 5 but now i play real guitar and couldnt be happier/more proud about the switch

[@VoidSixx]

Lennon Mcharristar Been playing guitar hero for over a year now and after a few months of guitar I already found things easier on guitar for some things. Saying "the shitty east plastic toy" doesn't make you look good or hard, and it's one of the most un-original guitar hero related comments I've seen.

[@njwardhan]

This is insanely good man!

[@nickp6498]

I'm going to settle this right now. I have been playing guitar for 11 years, guitar hero for about 9. It is MUCH easier to "get good" at guitar hero than it is to be a good guitar player. Real guitar takes much more time, dedication, and there's just a lot more to learn. However, that being said, you can always get better at real guitar, since the sky is practically the limit. To this day Dave Mustaine is still learning. The same can't be said for guitar hero. I'll tell you right now that if I practiced guitar hero for 50 years I would never be able to FC the hardest songs. You basically reach your peak in guitar hero after a few years. I mean I'm sure I COULD get that good, but the point that I'm trying to make is that once you are "great" at both guitar and guitar hero, getting even better at guitar is MUCH easier. Real guitar is much harder to get good at from scratch, but guitar hero is much harder to be insane at, because the guitar gets easier the more you learn and become a better player. The hardest part is just starting out. There. Now stop arguing about it.

[@gabroz4]

+Nick P My actual experience as a guitar player is the opposite: i learnt very fast the first things and the further i go, the harder things become, as now i have to learn sweeps and shit. GH is even faster at the beginning, and in two single days i became a monster, so don't say shit guitar is WAY harder, i wonder how much you play guitar if you say it's not! I play guitar 3 hours a day and in 3 years i havent become as good as i did in one single day playing GH.

[@nickp6498]

You just proved my point. Of course you can LEARN guitar hero a lot faster than guitar, BUT to be able to play at a..."professional" level, real guitar is much easier. Learn a few basic chords and you have yourself a (albeit shitty) band. For guitar hero, the amount of precision needed to FC Jordan and TTFAF is MUCH harder than being able to play these songs on guitar. I'm not saying that everyone who FCs Jordan in guitar hero can play it on real guitar (the two are WAY different from each other) but getting to the point to be able to FC Jordan is much longer and requires more dedication than being able to play it on guitar. Once you "know how" to play real guitar and you get your fingers in sync with different scales and chords, the rest isn't as much of a grind from there. Dave Mustaine can write a song and be able to play it in a day or two, for guitar hero this would never happen unless it's an easy song. For guitar hero, you can FC one song then fail another. Look how many people have FC'd the hardest songs in guitar hero then look at how many people can play the real guitar. Guitar players are a dime a dozen, but people that are actually good at guitar hero is much less. Again, not anying guitar hero is harder overall, just saying that it is harder to play a full song without messing up in one go.

[@matthewbrezina2594]

+Nick P although you may think that after 2 years your as good as you can get at guitar hero, your skills will very slowly increase. I thought I wasn't getting any better, but compared to 3 months ago, there is a diffrence for me.

[@Tcrumpen]

Michael Emanuele Many many hours of listening to like 2 seconds clips of the song and figuring out the notes that are being played

[@powiUNDERSCORE]

There are a lot of arguing here about which is harder, real guitar or guitar hero. Without a doubt, I think everyone agrees, that a real guitar is a lot more difficult, and complex to learn. It has a lot slower learning curve. With guitar hero u can "play" songs within some days, but its a different story on a real guitar of course. On the other hand everyone has a limit on how fast their brain and fingers are. In guitar hero - being a lot more simpler than real guitar - the song creators tried to make the harder songs difficult by putting in a loooot of notes. In some songs (like this for example) they threw in so many notes, that is just too much for a lot of people, its just over their limits. I dont know if i made any sense, i have problems compose sentences in english :p but what i tried to say, real guitar and guitar hero are difficult in other ways. You need different skills to be able to play the hardest songs, and that is up to the person what is harder for him/her.

Shane Grogan Totally. I have played the stupid game since I was a little child. This is for geeks and people with too much free time. Studing is not just with an instrument, guitarrist have to memorize scales, tones,each possible note in the guitar, etc, etc, etc, and eat thousand of theory. Thats studying, not spend 24 hours eating fries and being an idiot. The comparison is just morronic

I played both Guitar Hero and real guitar a lot too and I always found real guitar to be harder for than Guitar Hero even though I've been playing guitar for 8 years (I can't do fast guitar solos on my real guitar but I can easily do them in Guitar Hero because most notes are hammer-ons).

[@hujo445]

***** Yup, a real solo takes months to master. I still hope one day I'll be able to play heroes of our time on guit lmao.

[@stolenname94]

It's not about the amount of buttons the controller has that makes it easier. The reason us guitarist say guitar is harder is because sometimes guitar hero over complicates the simplest licks so many unnecessary patterns but I suppose that's what makes guitar fun.

[@KillerPanda420420]

the effects you had during the rthym and lead parts were sick as fuck

[@Fandi_Permadi]

so clean , best cover on youtube .

[@usernameuser5573]

Wait... is the song called Sudden Death? I'm confused and not a big Megadeth fan.

[@basementjesus1352]

Yes, the song is Sudden Death by Megadeth

[@usernameuser5573]

Cameron Wohlever Gotcha

[@sneakyleaky7670]

Playing on real guitar is easier...

[@aleksandarmilosavljevic17]

I will say just one thing : HELL NOOOOOO

[@Mrbradboy1]

+Aleksandar Milosavljevic yea I don't think so either!. Now to Danny its probably easy to him on real guitar, he makes it look easy as pie!.

[@homerbart5489]

+Aleksandar Milosavljevic actually it depends on the song smoke on the water on guitar is beginner but on guitar hero I have seen people fail but This song looks harder on real guitar

[@AlertF16]

I have a feeling you don't play guitar yourself

[@MrMw2nolife]

get a life lol

[@iwasadeum]

As somebody who is generally not a huge Megadeth fan, there's something about this song - especially the section at 5:15 🤤. The guitar solos are so masterfully crafted and fit the overall tone of the song so well. Too many solos (especially from this time period and the years leading up to it) just sound "thrown in there" - the chosen guitar tone is odd and doesn't really fit the emotion or overall sound of the music leading up to the solo or the music after... Hard to explain, but everything just blends together so well. Definitely in my top 10 favorite heavy metal songs. Also, well played!!

[@JThorss0N]

Sick! Great job with that one! Impressive!

[@efetrkylmz]

You got some insane guitar talent over there bro

[@Beagle7788]

Holy crap, you are just a BEAST! O_____________________O It's just amazing how you can play all this difficult stuff just learning it by ear :o (And did I mention on GH, you did most of that solo with ONE HAND? 4:13 - 5:26) Seriously though, I was just speechless watching this video. Keep up the great work \m/

[@alxdrksoul]

it's too friking hard that danny, being the badass that he is, couldn't record the whole solo in one shot xD

[@Srjuniin]

Awesome Danny !!!

[@dthomson409]

Awesome. In every way possible! I know it's not as shreddy as the other 'deth songs, but I'd love to hear you do public enemy no. 1, awesome song.

[@davidarguelles1593]

that efect on the second guitar its just aswome, great jobe dude c:

[@LPNAlexander]

Dave is just a badass guitarist, and you as well! Great job man. Could you upload a seperate video with just the real guitar? Thanks.

[@Andres33AU]

Nice stuff man! The only part that I can see guitar being significantly easier is in 3:36, only because the "green notes" are open e notes on the guitar, meaning you mainly focus on hitting the other notes, instead of worrying that your finger is still pressed on the green notes in GH. Also it's easier to fluke on GH than real guitar, because GH is pretty much like a one-stringed guitar with only 5 frets, but damn it can still be hard, haha, Having gone from GH to real guitar, I'd say guitar is much harder, but so much more satisfying. :)

[@Stevo2426]

It scares me how similar they sound. Great job man! I have to say that the real guitar sounds better since there's that little bit more ornamentation put in there and there's better sound to it too! I'd love to see more where that came from! =)

[@HooyahJR13]

fantastic stuff, subscribed

[@SgtFurby]

Damn man. This is so fucking clean.

[@fitnkick]

Incredible skill from both guys

[@CmayTH1RT3EN]

aaaaaaand...my mind is blown...u just earned yourself at least one more subscription

[@olezevs]

I think it sick that you learned this by ear !!

[@The2009EDDY]

That is some sweet sweep picking done there.

[@GuitarHeroPhenom]

I'm sorry guys, I didn't realize KZbin had it saved at no comments allowed...

[@sleeplessingc]

this young man makes an excellent point.. put down the game and play for real..its alot more satisfyling.. this young man is talented and I hope to see much more from him in the future.

[@delayedhome]

Makes sense for someone who looks like the cousin of Herman to be a god at both GH and actual guitar. Edit: Dude, I'm rewatching this, and I'm still in awe. You're insanely talented, my man!

[@TerrorBladeElf]

Well played sir. salute to your guitar technique.

[@sohoodie9260]

The real guitar was absolutely fucking insane... Hats off to Mustaine and Broderick..

[@cyndie26]

I believe that on almost every recording of this that I've heard so far, there is a solo at 3:43, but I think it may have been added when Megadeth recorded it for their album that was released after this game.

[@TheBraian9973]

Congratulations, it is fantastic!!

[@RkzGalvatron]

Words can't even describe what I've just witnessed. Thank you.

[@lemlem35]

Happy 10 year anniversary of this video
