    Roope is awesome. He plays the guitar so smooth like if it was only a toy. He makes it look so simple

      Alexi's sounds a lot more bone crushing if you listen to them separately toward the end of the video.

    Alcohol destroyed Roope, who lost his immense abilities and went into depression. Now we have lost Alexi to god knows what... really sad

    • @MichaelHolmgaard
      @MichaelHolmgaard 3 ปีที่แล้ว +20

      @showbizonastick I think it was something more extreme than alcohol. Alexi suffered from a very serious illness, maybe cancer, autoimmune disease etc

    • @williamwyrmshard
      @williamwyrmshard 3 ปีที่แล้ว +17

      @@WillVRam Think I read an interview with him and he said that he went into depression because he was kicked out of COB unexpectedly and he was extremely upset over it. The drinking probably contributed to it as well. I think he also said that he had even stopped playing guitar because of his depression.

    @averadeyoe agreeing with werner, its a pinch harmonic. and its made by "pinching" the string where u play it. pinching is just hitting the string with ur thumb at almost the same time as the pick. u can get several harmonics off of the same note depending on where u pinch the string. every guitar is different too. hope this helps

  • @Soulreaper066
    @Soulreaper066 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @Lentsku It's a pinch harmonic... You simply just hit the string 50% with your pick, and the other 50% is with your thumb. it's the lightest touch, takes a few tries to get the hang of it, try searching around for how to do one.

    Roope uses the spec edition engl pre-amp with a 2/90/2 thru an Engl straight cab. Also an alesis quadraverb, RSP 2400 and some wireless system
    Alexi uses a lee jackson pre amp, Vht 2/50/2, rocktron intelliflex and RSP 2400. Along with a wireless system.
    Although i believe the power amps change from time to time. I know alexi experimented HCDR era.

    Top 3 Strings - Open, G String - 2nd Fret, B String - 3rd Fret, High E - 5th Fret. I know in standard it's a variation of D so in the tuning it would be a variation of C... not very good with theory so I couldn't tell you the exact name.
