Very kewl!!

MY GOD!
That song is monstrously difficult, but you nailed it!

I like that tone too

Awesome stuff!

Great tone, what guitar and amp did you use?

Its only my 2nd ever proper attempt at a mix really dude! Im a little disapointed still, as its a bit out of time in the breakdown and at the end.

Heres what i used:

Ibanez RG2570EX using the bridge bucker ( JB) into a Boss GT 6 with a Vai patch ive been working on for ages but can never get there all the way lol. Boss GT6 normally goes into a Marshall MG50dfx, but today it went into my 100W Marshall VS100, which i handily mangaed to pickup for £50

The VS100 was mic'd centre on the cone with a Shure SM57, but a few cm back in order to avoid a harsher /clipped sound.
Recorded straight into my little Zoom MRS4 4-track onto smart media and whipped onto the PC.

Cool edit pro was used to mix it, and i did a little messing with the EQ, sterteo tracked the guitar and added a little reverb. Played a round a little with the panning too, as ive never really done much with it, because i noticed that on the breakdown in Juice the guitar seems to pan left about 75% i think.

Cheers

realy nice, u got the pinch harmonics that i cant!!!!
sounds a bit unforgiving in places, as in the notes stick to the beat a bit, but that i gues is because when vai plays it just drips off his fingers.

still, great tone and a brilliant atempt!
kudos!

ps i like the fact you still have the vocal at the end!!!!

just listend to your quot;always with me.......quot;
damn fine!

i love that tone!

how long have you been playing? and how often a day?

well, normally try to get in an hour a day. But know its summer its more like 3 hours a day lol. I've been playing 5 years so far tho, so hope to get better and solve a few problems with me playin'.

Cheers, and thanks for listening everyone

Kev

No problem kev.



wow man that was awsome! sounded exactly like it. my favorite vai tune also. keep up the good work.

Listened again, and the only problem I could spot was the timing was out on quite a lot of it - some of the licks seemed quot;pushed or pulledquot;

I enjoy the clip pretty ****ing much together with the Satriani clip.

=/ i tried myself on that tune and failed horribly .. i need to practice more
