My first Ocarina of Time cover! It's out today on Spotify and other streaming services if you are into that sorta thing. I vividly remember playing (and watching my older brother play) OoT on N64 when I was a kid. I could never progress too far in the game at the time (cringe) but I remember my brother beating Ganon and it being one of the most hyped moments. We even called our mom to come look. 🤣🤣

Your awesome dude if u have a day job quit that keep doing this. Either that or slack off at work and play moar. You were not the only one but your youtube made me pick up the guitar again after 8 years of laying it to rest. Got a lot of catching up to do but I think imma do retro OST to get me back into it again. 11/10. You rule boss don't let anybody tell you otherwise!

[@trevorbisset]

​@@JohnZingTTVhe plays the themes with the most rizz possible and I don't think he's even old enough to remember 1998

[@ChristopherWanha]

Nostalgia isn't the only reason this is good. Never owned an N64, song still injects onions in your eyes.

[@gabrielsiria5331]

This man's form is perfect

[@cadenluke]

I feel blessed to be able to listen to your playing at my whim...life enchancer!

[@thaddeusganster1295]

Great Job John

[@luisicky3366]

bro why you gotta make a grown man cry😭

[@trevorbisset]

@@luisicky3366 just something in my eye

[@ds2000]

It just takes me back to being 15 again ❤

[@CameronRaps]

This song was the first of many that I heard and instantly fell in love with as a kid. So much nostalgia in such a simple melody.

[@Xorn4359]

This rendition captures that somber vibe so perfectly

[@rockman00]

This gotta be the best and most faithful guitar cover of the Title Theme on KZbin!

[@ジョン墨蔵]

めちゃくちゃ最高です！

[@davidward9550]

Get the sound of a horse galloping in the background and this would be perfect

[@Pirabit943]

Bro, I got so nostalgic listening to this. You did an amazing job!

[@las_or_something]

hi bob ross

[@Jimjamm7]

Takes me back to my childhood, man those were just simpler times. Take care John!

[@cainanneedham9022]

Might be the best Zelda song cover I’ve ever heard. Fantastic job, fella!

[@bryanquick3349]

this is really pretty. dunno if it's because you're playing in a desert or because of the specific acoustics of the place, but it feels really clean, with each chord and individual tone having a bit of room to, like, bloom. it's nice.

[@deko8295]

Hum, i'm pretty sure it was recorded in a insonorized room before and play after in playback in the desert for the video.

[@-solidsnake-]

@@deko8295 yeah you could never get this kind of sound outdoors right? There would be wind hitting the mics I assume

[@dantheman348]

There would be way less reverb and the perceived volume of the guitar would be way less. It’s filmed outdoors for visual effect. Sounds great tho brings me back to my Zelda playing days.

[@alexwillis7980]

I can't fathom how much work and practice you've put in to sound so clean, so on tempo, so beautiful it seems easy. So good so effortlessly that i forget to even pay attention and just get lost in the music. I've been playing guitar for 8 years, and i can only dream of having your skill. Well done man:) a perfect arrangement of a hauntingly beautiful masterpiece

[@ryancronk6762]

Damn man I felt this to my soul gave me that shiver up the spine when the nostalgia hits

[@imaratspal]

I think it's pretty cool that you played this while in Gerudo Valley

[@eustace8520]

This moved me. I've listened to a lot of beautiful music... And I'm happy to have come across this.

[@Lacostebum21]

You killed it ma man. Bravo 👏🏾🎉 In the '90s I played OoT religiously and this sounds the closest I've heard it to the real thing. Thanks!

[@zackboring3314]

Sir, I am going to try and cover this BUT with an AC30 clean channel. Nobody (maybe one other person) as tried to do this song on an Electric guitar; It is all Classical or acoustic guitars. So I played the first two chords, and HOLY CRAP THE AC30 FREEKING WORKS WITH THIS SONG!!!!!!!

[@LazyVocalist]

Wow... just wow. Such a classic song. Beautifully done!

[@Saltydoginthedesert]

Great rendition of that tune! Attempting to learn it at the moment. Also, cheers on the setting! I was born and raised in Phoenix, and Papago Park and all the other mountains were my old stomping grounds!

[@CoreyDyer]

saw this on my home feed, 10/10 cover you did great!

[@Angel-wi5pu]

Ita so beautiful, im crying

[@skiw168]

My new study playlist :) Make more Zelda covers! I love your covers!

[@gabedawg]

Excellent choice of tuning. I love that open C string.

[@rockman00]

May I ask for the tuning?

[@marcr3240]

How this has less than 1000 likes is surprising! This was such a beautiful cover. Thanks for sharing. ❣

[@VicJang]

John, you KNOW how to choose the right pieces to cover! I knew it’s gonna be good before clicking on it. Amazing!

[@legotiger35]

So schön gespielt volle entspannung ❤❤❤❤❤

[@KeyserTheRedBeard]

[@calebchild4467]

I love listening to your songs at work; not just because it's a great performance, but also because you don't put these blurbs at the end telling everyone to subscribe and support you on patreon. I can actually just put the song into a playlist and listen.

[@dougjord7833]

What an elegant and nostalgic tone. Beautifully genius.

[@VideoGameGuitar]

Wonderful arrangement! Absolutely loved it :)

[@artibansTales]

delicious touch! what an elegant solution.. Bravo! regards

AMAZING

[@joewbrown]

Loving this arrangement and just subscribed to your Patreon for the tabs! With the detuned 6 and 5 strings, do you recommend using high/extra high tension strings for those two? Or baritone guitar strings?

[@kdefensemartialarts8097]

👏

[@benjamingrobler5315]

Sick!

[@sebastianvega4576]

quick question: is this playback? since, no mics i can spot and perfect silent background. if that is the case, it is insane that you play it so perfectly in time with the recording. anyway, beautiful music and great skills :)

[@gabedawg]

yes of course it is playback.

[@sebastianvega4576]

@@gabedawg thank you for you wisdom

[@sonic_castle7813]

Great~!👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@Sleepyjew]

Absolutely beautiful piece, very well played. Jw what tuning are you in? And did you have to use a thicker string to hit that low note? Epic, thank you.

[@JohnOethGuitar]

It is 6th-C and 5th-G. Haha no they are normal tension, but it wouldn't be a terrible idea for a tuning like that.

[@Sleepyjew]

The sound quality is amazing being that low. I get a lot of fuzz in my sound even being in D tuning lol. Ty for making this piece for us!

[@Bodrick_G]

@@Sleepyjew I play Johns arrangements on steel string and buzz is inescapable unless you raise your action. Sounds amazing if you can play on high action though.

[@michaelrivera8923]

What guitar holder do you use, it seems very compact and comfortable. Also, you should play Twilight Town from kingdom hearts or Jubilife City from Pokemon diamond and pearl.

[@JohnOethGuitar]

It's called a Gitano and it runs for about $30. It attached to the guitar by suction cups and you can fold it down so it can fit inside a case.

[@gabedawg]

Also check out the Tenuto Slim. It's the same size and style, except it has 2 large suction cups rather than 3 small ones (gitano), so it's more stable and it also has a swivel so it's more adjustable. I own both and prefer the Tenuto. They're amazing for portability, they can easily fit in your pocket. but other than that i dont really like them overall. I think the best supports overall are the GUITARLIFT (Big) and the Sage Atlas (tall). John uses the sage atlas too, its the wooden one you see in his videos. The ergoplay (standard model, not tappert or troster models) is also pretty decent. The sage atlas is also amazing for portability. it can fold to become pretty compact and fit in a guitar case.

[@danielfm81]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@Zeldashelley]

♥️♥️♥️

[@lkorn9150]

That looks like Papago Park in Phoenix

[@PubliusMontis]

Excellent always cry with nostalgia listening to this, just for curiosity did you really play in the desert or is a really good made greenscreen indoors? the acoustics are awesome thats why I wonder how

[@chrismuratore4451]

He records audio in his sound studio and then carefully layers the audio over a video of him playing the same track. Incredibly talented

[@aoBubs]

pretty much every professional-looking music video is made by recording the audio and video separately, just so you know

[@jamestuivanu]

i cant stretch my hands to do the first strum fml

[@juanrosales2734]

La guitarra está afinada estandar? 😢

[@diegoavila6067]

Standard F tuning?

[@JohnOethGuitar]

The tuning is the 6th string tuned down to C, and the 5th string tuned down to G.

[@slimelxfebeats9227]

I know papago when i see it

[@jasonvance2245]

MORE ZEDLA PLS :)

[@sinsemilla9876]
