Not sure where to start about this one. Blows my mind how Jason Becker wrote this when he was so young. The atonal section... that took a while to learn. With no performance videos to go by, I chose the fingering that seemed most logical to me. There is so much personality shining through in every note - even the ones that are flying by at a million miles an hour. I tried to capture it as much as I could! The arpeggio section is a monster. So fast. The Kiesel is an awesome guitar which certainly helped capture the Becker vibe. Check them out at www.KieselGuitars.com
Sweep picking is not that hard once you practice it for a while. Just start slow and focus on being precise and clean instead of speed, speed will come with practice
I totally agree that sweep is not that hard, but at that speed, with that much stretching, for that long time, then I believe that sweep gets as hard as hell 😭
Ok guys... I know you said it would be a series of three videos dedicated to Jason Becker, but we'd LOVE to see more of his music on this channel! Congratulations on the fantastic work once again.
I receive tremendous support from the fantastic Mr. Tabs team. In this performance, we have Jason Sheppard taking the lead, while Tom, Justin, Matt, and Ryan contribute their talents in the background. A special thanks also goes to our patrons; without their support, none of this would be possible!
Jason really did have the best use of the whammy bar among his peers. Frequent, but always tasteful or used in an interesting way. Michael Romeo is another I'd consider a master at using it wisely.
First time hearing this… just wow. It’s super neoclassical. I can see some of the stuff Randy does in here. Definitely a lot of nice classical phrasing and tons of technique.
Absolute instant like, good jason tabs are so hard to come by and this song is just a masterpiece, i applaud you for the obviously massive amount of work you had to do for this. Stellar!!!! 🤘🤘
This whole album is a masterpiece. I would love to see Dwellar in the Cellar next His production work is also phenomenal, Triumphant Hearts also has some nasty licks i’d love to see Mr. Tabs playing.
When I was a kid I thought that if anyone could play like that you would instantly become a rock star. Now you see young people, even children, all over the world doing amazing things with the guitar and it's not a big deal.
Wow, that was fantastic! Great job! I don't know if my old fingers could play at that speed anymore. Those sweep sections look painful. I really enjoyed that, thanks!
man, i just realized that the genius that wrote a pick sweeping and made me question about my guitar skills is a man that was punished by life, thats right boy, Life can be cruel
The perfect guitar for a teacher or instructor to have. Easy to watch and see where he's fretting. I get it now. I always thought they looked like toys. But this is a good use case.
Yes the colour coding is really useful. The octaves are the same colour so switching positions is made easier. Another cool thing about this guitar that I wasn’t able to feature in the video is the side dots are glow in the dark! Really useful on a dark stage
Love Beckers playing only criticism I have is when he gets into the long sweep patterns over so many bars it starts to sound a little mushy other than that Becker is a guitar god and you did fantastic on this masterpiece
What amp/patch/etc are you using to get that tone. It is SPOT on. Could close my eyes and it would be hard to tell it wasn't Jason. Thank you for linking his page in the youtube decript, ive been a donor directly for awhile now. He is an inspiration to us all.
Thanks for the kind words! All tones and effects are created using software called Amplitube Max. This software contains many virtual amps and pedals. The plug-ins are available to all my Patreon subscribers so you that if you have Amplitube Max yourself, you can get exactly the same tone as me at home. I also offer screenshots of the virtual amps and pedals so that if you don’t have Amplitube you can attempt to replicate the tone using whatever equipment you have available.

You should play “Take Your Fingers From My Hair” by Dream Theater if you get a chance. That’s a dream song of mine to learn but I can’t find a tab anywhere. It would be incredible to see my favorite and most used source of tabs play this one. You have inspired me to get better and learn songs that I would never think I would be able to play. Thank you so much for all you do for the guitar-playing community!

Aquí concuerdo el puente khaler es un lío mejor floyd original.
them guitars are so sweet, i got one myself!
Wow awesome work.. more AC/DC?
Professional composers could help him.
Could you do "The Ninja" by Cacophony? That is one of my favorite Jason Becker works. Him and Marty Friedman were the ultimate guitar tag team.
Ok, now you're just showing off. You're supposed to encourage people to play their guitars, not break them. WOW🔥🔥🔥🔥👏👏👏👏
Hahahahahaha
I watched this video, then sat and aggressively played the open G chord,
full distortion....over and over and over.
I think I've peaked.
Honesty tho like who even knows this song and wants to learn it
Like wtf was that sweep picking
This is no where near as hard as previous covers he's done lol
This shows you can play ANYTHING. Jason Becker was such a prodigy. He had mad talent and musicality.
Up to 3:07 seemed surprisingly playable and then the arpeggios from hell arrived :)

@@kietchu2761 bro you are an entry level sweeping..sweep needs consistency and clarity, each note should sound as picked
@@laryxislust6664 I dont understand. I said exactly what you said
Haven’t tried it but I feel like 1:41 would be harder than the sweeps
Master Jedi Jason Becker 🤕 May the fretboard be with you. ❤
Master shredi
Jesus?
Ok guys... I know you said it would be a series of three videos dedicated to Jason Becker, but we'd LOVE to see more of his music on this channel! Congratulations on the fantastic work once again.
If not more, then maybe just one bonus video of Altitudes tabs. That’d be a great one to do
Yessss!!!!! Jason and marty!!!!
One last breath
Man you are awesome you sound just like him, Jason would be proud
How do you constantly put out crazy performances with the tabs like this on the regular? Do you even sleep, patrick? It's just incredible!!
I receive tremendous support from the fantastic Mr. Tabs team. In this performance, we have Jason Sheppard taking the lead, while Tom, Justin, Matt, and Ryan contribute their talents in the background. A special thanks also goes to our patrons; without their support, none of this would be possible!
I can play the power chord sections.
Show off.
@@ericjenkins2737 definitely my fingers’ favourite section.
😂😂😂😂😂
How this guy made all this music as a teenager is completly mind blowing.
Jason Becker was a monster player
I love Jason Becker thanks for doing this song can you please do Altitudes next.
PLEASE DO ALTITUDES‼️‼️‼️‼️
Sweeps so clean they literally cleaned my floor me.
Finally Opus Pocus! Favorite Becker song ever, thank you!
Jason really did have the best use of the whammy bar among his peers. Frequent, but always tasteful or used in an interesting way. Michael Romeo is another I'd consider a master at using it wisely.
Always adored Jason’s whammy bar vibrato.
Michael Lee Firkins has a unique style as well.
@@ericjenkins2737big time. Such a great player.
One of my all time favorite instrumentals. Crazy phrasing and the amount of technique you need to play it is off the charts. Excellent! 🤘🏻🤘🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Phrasing is so great in this one. Really any Jason Becker song is littered with beautiful phrasing.
First time hearing this… just wow. It’s super neoclassical. I can see some of the stuff Randy does in here. Definitely a lot of nice classical phrasing and tons of technique.
The ultimate sweep picking exercise! Awesome!
It’s a real test of endurance, to say the least! But yes, the sweeping part is 100% an awesome and musical sweep arpeggio exercise!
Absolute instant like, good jason tabs are so hard to come by and this song is just a masterpiece, i applaud you for the obviously massive amount of work you had to do for this. Stellar!!!! 🤘🤘

I love that guitar so much haha
Jason....rimane un grandissimo chitarrista.
E una persona fantastica...
Ok, this is impossible. That arpeggios are insane!
I have no words to see you play this. It’s just perfect.
Wish you the best of success.
Impecable.
Abrazo Mexicano.
🤘🏻🇲🇽🤘🏻🇲🇽🤘🏻🇲🇽🤘🏻🇲🇽🤘🏻
Muchísimas gracias!🤘🏻🇲🇽🤘🏻
Awesome song, awesome playing. Reminds me of the NES ninja gaiden music.
NES music had a massive effect on me

Dude you have such amazing range to be able to cover Becker as well as everything else you do.
Ahh shoot! My guitar only has 22 frets...Shame, I think I'd have nailed this 😂 Congrats on another triumphant lesson 🎉
Same, oh well. Back to the old Back in Black it is
Jason will be one the greatest guitar players ever, right next to Eddie
Incredible job dude.Awesome.I love the main melody.
Insane. Love your work, the wait was worth it!
My dream guitar.
My too... but there no way to buy it
It's just 5 dollars bro

@@ЗначимыйБеляш you can just teleport the guitar to your room pupsik
Woooooh! Another Jason Becker Banger! Keep them coming please.🙏🏼🎸🔥
And to know that Jason was very young when he wrote this. Amazing. Great work man. This is a masterpiece. Cheers
Awesome work, do you think we could see a cover of Altitudes next? I would love to see you attempt it and tab it.
wow,thank you making and uploading this gem
Woooooooow that technique 🤯🤯🤯🤯🫥🔥🔥
Amazing performance🔥
Wow, that was fantastic! Great job! I don't know if my old fingers could play at that speed anymore. Those sweep sections look painful. I really enjoyed that, thanks!
Beautiful song ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Salute Jason Becker
Technical masterclass, composed by JB and executed perfectly by Mr. Tabs
Thank you!

Muito bom.
Parabéns.
Excellent Job! Congratulations! 👏🏽🔥
impressive from Becker and Mr. Tabs!!!

Thank you for this. 🙏

Very cruel,and damned unfair.

I'd love to see Gary Hoey - Hocus Pocus
Bout time someone took jason becker on. Good job
Hello guitarist. Thanks 🙏🍀👌🎶🎼🎵✌️✌️
Time to play altitudes now
Awesome!! I hope to hear an "Altitudes" cover. 🤘🏻
Beautiful
Just found your channel today with GnR video and yesterday you post this!
I am subscribing in a second
Lots more where this came from! Thanks for the sub!

Please Mr Tabs: Afraid to Shoot Strangers by Iron Maiden 😊
Love Beckers playing only criticism I have is when he gets into the long sweep patterns over so many bars it starts to sound a little mushy other than that Becker is a guitar god and you did fantastic on this masterpiece
I dont like long sweep patterns like that either but Jason was the best at it. For me sweeping sounds better when used sparingly.
Wow ! GG on that one!
(It would be awesome to see you play some old school Marty Friedman someday, like Night or Tibet/Angel!)
do more covers of Jason Becker plss, good video
Que hemoso que suena esa guitarra. Excelente guitarrista.
This is great.
As ever, awesome!
Incredible
Give me more Jason Becker
Hi how are you rock on dude l am learning to play guitar basic power chords you are a perfect guitarist
Welcome to the learning journey!
Most of us us started with basic rock power chords. Good luck with it and I hope what we do helps!
I have never clicked on a video faster, I thought I was tripping when I saw the thumbnail
Yeah now i know what im going to spend the next ten years learning.
Please do more Jason songs
Great man, the title reminds me of hocus pocus by focus, would be very cool if u could do that one next

i think this is impossible, but this guy dont know this word...
3:12 this is hardest riff I’ve ever seen
finally u did a jason tab after a few years
You should check out the other two we did this past year!
Jason e muita fluidez de solo, muito fera.
Awesome video man!! I was wondering if you could do Lucretia by megadeth for an upcoming video???
I would love to do that one eventually. One of my favorite Marty solos!
@@jasonsheppard7428the intro riff is sick
Holy 🤯🔥👏🏼
We are waiting for Altitudes
Any chance of doing a lesson on bad penny by Rory Gallagher. Cheers
Great idea.
Rory was so awesome!

Crazy ;)
Outstanding!!!

Your guitar is sick rageous.

Awesome just in time for spooky season
