Jason Becker - Perpetual Burn (guitar cover)

  • Been a while, thought I better check in.
    I've been working on this cover by the legendary Jason Becker for quite some time now, and it's definitely the most challenging thing I've learnt to date. I was pretty intrigued after seeing Jeff Loomis's version of the song, so I gave it a go and here's the result! I know it's not 100% accurate to the original, but I figured out as much as I could.
    If you're wondering why the mask is gone, I thought it to be pretty pointless to continue with it now that my channel has been renamed, and I'm certain that if anybody had the desire to see what I looked like they would have looked me up already.
    I know I also said that you wouldn't see me doing any more covers, but I've decided that if a song tickles my fancy then I'll do a cover. It was more the cover requests that I don't like doing.
    Tuning is Standard E.
    Equipment used:
    LTD Mh-1000 Nt
    Bias FX Desktop
    Logic Pro X

      From what I remember, it was just the "Funky Lead" tone that's under the low gain menu. May have given it a touch more gain.

    Something I've noticed about my favourite guitar players is that they all have something unique about their playing that makes it identifiable even while listening without the knowledge of who is actually playing. I just listened to Embodiment and realized that your playing has that quality as well.

    @MrLallianzuala 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Same you dude, since this month I have committed to do a cover of this but wouldn't give much shit on the TAB and finger position etc, I, you , we are not jason becker but try to give our best not ony becuase of our craze for him but aso showed others our feelings, paying homage and respect to Jason and the like minded fans and followers etc. This cover is not quite its excellents I did and a play back of Jasons thing while listening of it to ensure that this is not a faster tempo. Because that it is what is ringing to ears till date. How much this song speaks of Jason and his talents and those who covers, now there comes a great scope of dispassionate criticism and space discussion. Man this is the best job I have seen so far. Please do other jason's thing as well. HAts off to you man.

    Man, 5 years ago I was watching your videos and wanted to learn to play guitar like you, I am very much inspired. I bought a guitar, a few years and I was invited to play in a band. With this group, we have achieved considerable success in our country (Russia) and then I went away from it, and quite abandoned his hobby. The guitar is dusty, family, work, home. But when I saw your video, I was very happy to see you after a while. You're crazy man, never throw your talent. (Sorry for the english, Google translator)

    When I was 13, I enjoyed watching your slipknot videos with the guitar in my lap, dreaming of playing like you. Today at 24 I play Jason Becker with you. It took me a while to discover that that masked TH-cam dinosaur I saw as a child was you and funny, as it may seem that my dream came true with a lot of effort.

But I can't ever get practice time because of my job.. teach me your method of sweep picking and I'll show you how to weld stainless pipe 😎😎

    Hey Finn. Thanks for sharing that my man. That's an 11 on the difficulty to play scale of 1 to 10. Jason Becker was such a young man when he wrote and played this and this shows how great a virtuoso he was. You put major time and effort into that one. I definitely enjoyed watching you playing that live.
