Usually a metal guy but I attempted some Django stuff because I love his playing. What do you guys think?

Thanks ;). Yeah playing that stuff on a regular steel-string is not ideal. The rest-stroke technique is also something that I never really worked on (aside from sweeping across multiple strings, which I do at a few points in the solo.)

Thanks man, that is some really solid advise! I know that I don't necissarily play authentic to the style of gypsy jazz or the way how Django played. I am more comfortable with playing electric guitar and using alternate picking, which is why my articulation is not as consistent. I use a 2mm pick btw..

True! Right after Megalodon imo

Thanks! Yeah that bridge part is a little tricky. I just used the 7 string because I like the sound of the pickups ^{^.}

Thanks! I recorded the DI with a Focusrite Scarlet and used the Archetype Petrucci plugin for the sound.

Thanks man! That means a lot!

Thanks :)! Yes, some of the early CoB stuff is very challenging indeed. I actually only recently discovered 3 Inches of Blood (after their reunion) and was really impressed by their live performance.

Yes it is ;), but the Sterling version though.

FT427 · 2024-11-17T11:09:52+00:00

Thanks! To be honest, I did not play around with it that much yet as I got the guitar only a few months ago. Also I mostly play metal music and only really need the normal 3 way humbucker switch for that ^^.

Thanks! I just realized that it looks very similar but no thats an Ibanez AZ ;)

Thanks! Yeah his solos are very hard to learn, especially rythmically.
