For anyone who doesn't know this song enough to recognize, he just played every part of the band on his guitar. He played Adam Jones's lead guitar throughout, layered in Maynard's vocal melody, threw in some bass riffs, and even drums. Adam Jones's guitar part in this song is hard enough to learn. This is pure talent. Awesome.
I don't know who you are but I'm looking at your TH-cam page right now and if you have any videos at all I'm subbing... 🙂 That was so eloquently stated and void of any opinion yet full of facts... 🙏 Amazingly well said! 👍 If you smoke, check out my channel you might like content... 🤷♂️
Must be of people who spend many hours to learn to play a different instrument then guitar and now finding out that they are actually quite... obsolete. ;-)
This whole thing sounds amazing but he (like a lot of people) doesn’t play that section properly. I’m no guitar god or know it all but I’m pretty sure Adam uses the same pull thru technique that he uses in Jambi. I only know about that from this video which explains it at the 2 minute mark... th-cam.com/video/N-IV7Ox66lY/w-d-xo.html
@@jmathieson15 You're correct but Ernesto is not going for an exact cover. He plays a lot of parts differently and usually does not play in the same tuning as Adam.
Right In Two is one of the few songs that will still put my son to sleep, he's almost 3 now. Highly recommend the cover of it by Beard of Harmony they did an awesome job.
My pops is an amazing 80s guitar player. He combines the lead and rhythm and it blows my mind. Ernesto combines both rhythm sections and both leads. He is truly unbelievable
Absolutely incredible! I can’t imagine the hours and hours of work-and the years of mastering your gift- that it took for you to conquer and reproduce this great Tool song in this way. I’m sure it was a labor of love. Thanks for blessing us with this masterpiece. It will continue to bring great pleasure to us and to souls yet unborn!
I always have to wonder how it's possible there are dislikes on performances like this. Regardless of taste, one can not deny talent, skill, and beauty....
This is probably the greatest cover that’s ever been done period. Mr. Schnack, I admire your genius and you inspire me to be a better guitar player. I truly have no clue why anyone would downvote this, seriously I thought about it long and hard, the only reason I can possibly come up with is jealousy.
It still blows my mind that after all these years Ernesto still isn't at 50k subscribers. Thank you for the awesome music throughout the years, my dude.
i think it is because he is a kick ass human being and doesn't monetize with a bunch of ads in the middle. sad that money makes the world go round.. lets make him viral
Holy Cow, that must have been physically exhausting to play it to the end. Thank you for making our day better by sharing your talent with us! Keep on feeling the music!
Mr. Schnack - you are not struggling to remain relevant! Invincible is, IMO, the most dynamic piece on Fear Inoculum. The fact that you incorporated that heavy "liquid" bass line, the snare-like double bass drum, along with the lyrics and guitar is nothing short of incredible Sir. You have made me a believer.
Just when you think he can’t pull off the bass breakdown and the other rhythms, 6:43 hits and HE KILLS IT! Incredible. I don’t do much social media, but I’ve made effort to share these masterpieces. Incredible!
Tool is one of my favorite bands that still is active. Led Zeppelin, black Sabbath, the who, talking heads, Pink Floyd and many more are my all time favorite. I'm 20 and alot of my friends look at me like I'm crazy when I show them the good music, thank you Dad for showing me all the great bands. Greetings from Germany
Wow. Great interpretation. As it went along, I kept wondering how he was going to do certain upcoming parts. Then when he them, I saw and heard what he did. I said to myself "I didn''t think of that". Then my jaw hit the floor. Several times. Well done.
Ernesto made me cry without saying anything! Singing and playing guitar is difficult, and figuring out the lyrics with the song on guitar while meshing them together is just as difficult! Encore!!!!!!!
The only man that might be able to play TooL better than themselves, you sir are a God. This is my favorite cover of yours yet! Thank you! Those last 3 minutes are mind melting!
Pure talent and passion right here. This is amazing (subbed for life). When people say “there are levels to this shit.” This guy is among those who they are talking about. Outstanding.
I really love your version of my favorite track from the album. How you manage to keep the energy rising and still keep all the relevant melodies separated is always a treat to listen to and watch. Keep it up in these crazy times ☺️💪
This was one of the coolest things I've ever heard. I honestly didn't expect that someone could encapsulate such an epic song with a single instrument.
Unbelievable cover. Despite having seen all your other tool covers I still didn’t expect you to manage the off-time quadruplets at 6:45 whilst maintaining the vocal part. You’re literally doing a polyrhythm across different digits of the same hand. Which blows my mind. Maximum respect - keep it up dude!
Didn't expect this quality from a random suggestion, actually waited 'till the end of the song to write this comment. The sound is amazing, the choice of notes and rhythm queues, perfectly captures the soul of this song. Superb performance, thank you!
Combining the vocal line with guitar part - you take my breath away. I have worshipped and studied Tool since 1989 and you have deepened and enriched my understanding of this band. No one has more soul than you Enernesto. You are more than a guitarist - more than an artist...you are a force of nature.
I love how passionate he is while he’s playing! absolutely beautiful man. I’m so glad that I found your channel. You inspire me, I’m starting to feel like you’re the best guitarist I’ve ever seen and heard of. It’s the passion and hard work, I seriously respect you.💗🌸✨
There’s a wealth of exceptional guitarists nowadays, but then there are guys like Ernesto. When people talk about there being levels to the game, they’re talking about Ernesto!
When tools music is designed into the polyrythmic off beat Accenture's with charismatic :D chord structures and slide , this man incorporates it all plus timing . !!!! And just gets it !!!! What a legend !!@##!!@ .......!!!!!!!!!
I'm glad you also love Tool. If your taste was different in music, we wouldn't have this and that would be a huge shame. I have no doubt your creativity and skill would still shine through but I'm relieved that we get to experience it through Tool.
Not only you made a great cover. You also chose a song that feels right for covers like these. (in My opinion) ''invincible'' is one of my favorite song from tool. And you made it sound Even more awesome via the acoustic guitar. Great job
I don’t have the words right now. I am still trying to process what I just watched. Besides your obvious gift, your approach to this song opens up the greatness that is “Invisible”. Well done!
Bro the meticulousness is incredible, and your dexterity, and complexity of the song arrangement, and that lovely guitar that looks like it’s been sitting in the closet for like 10 years and sounds and plays amazing. Dude great job, I can’t stop watching your videos.
Im so surprised how good this sounds, its actually so amazing. Thanks for showing me how good can sound one single instrument and for making me feel such a good song in a different way, Good job, best cover yet
.... while my guitar gently weeps... (I could become a thousand years old and still wouldn‘t be able to play it like that!! Lots of appreciation and love for you and your work, Mr. Schnack!! Thanks for entertaining us!! Have a good one). 🤘🏻🤘🤘🏾🤘🏿👽✨
It's official: Ernesto comes from the same planet as Danny.
Much agreed
That's technically the truth
@@rogercruz1547 Planet: Earth
His Birthday is tomorrow
So fucking true!!!!
You sir are not struggling to remain consequential. You are relevant
Ernesto is an essential worker - change my mind!
No,it’s called decades of practice and dedication and a love for music. Ernesto isn’t struggling with anything and of course he’s relevant !
Normal people - waiting for Tool's album for 13 years
Me - waiting for the next acoustic cover
Yeah, when it came out it was like "Wow, Ernesto will do so good acoustic versions from it :O "
same tho
Same
Tool only makes music so this guy can cover it
So you're saying I'm not normal?
fair enough
People: Oh which part of Invincible do you play?
Ernesto: Yes...
LOL
Hahaha that comment is the highlight of my day :D
Oh wow, let's reuse the same meme format on ALL of Ernesto's videos, such a great idea.............
@@rgr010 you're replying to a 10 month old comment...
😂😂😂🪐🪐🪐
This song works so well as an acoustic piece.
all great songs work that way it seems
Or may be he makes it look like it, the genius
This is awesome
Tool are not from Earth, every single song is a masterpiece. Every good song you can play on any instrument...
I absolutely agree. I've never heard another band that even comes close to the musical ecstasy that Tool Produces.
6:46 the fact you can play a 7/4 pull through and do the vocals in that sequence is unreal
I saw Jesus playing the best Tool cover I've ever heard. Now my life is complete.
Hahahaha Jesus came with a different approach this time to save us all... from being dead inside
Hahaha. Yes!
One of the best comments I've read in weeks...!!
👏🏼👏🏼

Now all I need is to see an elephant fly! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
It’s a shame that I can only like this once...
Now I will patiently wait for pneuma, descending and culling voices.

Descending is gonna be awesooooome!!!
7empest!
@@eurabio definitely!
Culling Voices for sure
I get the feeling I'm not the only one who fell into your Rabbit Hole, Ernesto. For a Tool fan, these performances are mesmerizing!
Nope, definitely not. Watching live Tool shows and his Pneuma masterpiece popped up. Holy crap he’s awesome. I can hear the whole group!
He's gotten me several times, dudes freaking amazing!
Now sure how I found this guy but your comment is exactly what I would have said.
Ernesto, that-was-insane. I bet not only Adam Jones would appreciate the cover but the rest of the band too! Epic cover.
For anyone who doesn't know this song enough to recognize, he just played every part of the band on his guitar. He played Adam Jones's lead guitar throughout, layered in Maynard's vocal melody, threw in some bass riffs, and even drums. Adam Jones's guitar part in this song is hard enough to learn. This is pure talent. Awesome.
You are transcending a song which is transcendant itself. A pure spirit within a pure body. What an hommage for a band like Tool.

That was so eloquently stated and void of any opinion yet full of facts... 🙏
Amazingly well said! 👍

@@the710extractionist That would be incredible however I'll be very surprised if Maynard spends even a second on Twitter haha
That was simply an honor to listen to, well done!
Incredible!
Can't fathom the dislikes.. this is a f***ing masterpiece
blows my mind
I came to the comments to see what ass hats disliked this video
no bass solo maybe? idk
To be fair, the dislikes are only 0.3 percent of the likes so it's very possible that they hit dislike by accident
Must be of people who spend many hours to learn to play a different instrument then guitar and now finding out that they are actually quite... obsolete. ;-)
Just showed this to my wife who was never been into Tool, she said that was an incredible experience. Happy quarantine. Blessed be the fruit everyone.
Under his eye.
your wife's fruit?
Under his eye.
There are guitar players, and then there is Ernesto. You are in a class unto your own.
When all seems dim, Schnack shines a little light on us.
Indeed...
You sir are one with your guitar. You sound like you've been playing that song your whole life.
6:40 is he going to ... he is! Yaaaaas!
Felt like the universe was expanding into the ever unknown where the light is never reachable.

I swear. I was waiting for that to happen xD And HE DID IT!!!!!
@@jmathieson15 You're correct but Ernesto is not going for an exact cover. He plays a lot of parts differently and usually does not play in the same tuning as Adam.
Happened upon the Lateralus cover video... here it is 3 hours and 47 covers later. Your fingers are possessed by the rock gods of old my friend.
This is incredible my daughter who is 7 weeks old goes to sleep to this song every night hahaha proud dad I’m gonna play this one to her now
Congrats man my daughter is 7 weeks as well
My 4yo daughter loves invincible. No idea why but she really loves it.
That’s good parenting right there.
Right In Two is one of the few songs that will still put my son to sleep, he's almost 3 now. Highly recommend the cover of it by Beard of Harmony they did an awesome job.
You let your 4 year old listen to tool? I guess you love your daughter listening to songs about heroin
How the fuck are you making it sound like you’re playing two part guitar at one time on one guitar?! This is incredible
Some esteban type shit
My pops is an amazing 80s guitar player. He combines the lead and rhythm and it blows my mind. Ernesto combines both rhythm sections and both leads. He is truly unbelievable
It's called fingerstyle
Don't forget vocals lol
Corona-chan has blessed us with more Ernesto covers.
haha
The practice that went into this. Sheesh... Amazing.
I'm starting a band. I need vocals, a drummer, lead guitar and bass. ERNESTO: YES
Dude you are a fucking God. Playing the dam song is hard enough and you go and do this, truly astonishing.
honestly first thought when the album dropped was "this is awesome! cant wait to hear ernestos covers..."
Absolutely incredible! I can’t imagine the hours and hours of work-and the years of mastering your gift- that it took for you to conquer and reproduce this great Tool song in this way. I’m sure it was a labor of love. Thanks for blessing us with this masterpiece. It will continue to bring great pleasure to us and to souls yet unborn!
Spectacular Ernesto ~ you are an extraordinary artist
Unbelievable you can replicate the greatest rock band of all time on an acoustic guitar. I just love this track...
Amazing. I can't begin to imagine how much time you have spent learning, and honing this.
I suspect for a player of his calibre, not as long as you would think. The more you memorise hard stuff, the better you get at playing hard stuff
7 exact minutes, even less than the actual length of the song
I always have to wonder how it's possible there are dislikes on performances like this. Regardless of taste, one can not deny talent, skill, and beauty....
This is simply beautiful. Absolute perfection. Now to listen to this a few hundred times. Thanks for this you wonderful man.
i swear i could hear maynards voice in the phaser at 7:32, outstanding work
My god.. Don't ever go that long again without some comfort.. Ty for making quatentine a lil easier
Quarantine?

Expected a acoustic cover with the guitar parts. Got literal goosebumps when he added the vocal melody :V
Just discovered this genius. And yes, I found I could hear the vocals as well. Amazing.
This dude always manages to show how good he is and how good Tool is at the same time. I love it
Impressive! Sounds like a whole band.
The first acoustic guitar cover of Invincible I've seen and probably the best I'll ever see...
This is brilliant. You translated the energy and feeling of the full band into a single instrument. Masterfully done, sir.
It's great that you adapted these difficult progressive measures to acoustic rhythms and arpeggios.
Wow, incredible. Hopefully more Tool covers in the future from you!
Didn't expect this quality from a random suggestion, actually waited 'till the end of the song to write this comment. The sound is amazing, the choice of notes and rhythm queues, perfectly captures the soul of this song. Superb performance, thank you!
Now THIS is a TASTY SCHNACK!
