    I’m glad you picked the Leicester show, that’s the one I was going to ask what you thought Dave used for effects… it’s sopping wet with chorus or something and I love it lol… what did he use, and how else can it be achieved?

    • @LicksOfTheBeast
      @LicksOfTheBeast  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Mainly chorus and delay, and he also has a phase 90 or a univibe for some bits.
      And don't overdo it on the gain so that you get that chimey clarity. 🙂

    • @LicksOfTheBeast
      @LicksOfTheBeast  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      That's true! Some of the bootleg recordings are quite good so I imagine the Maiden camp would at least have one take that sounded good enough for a b-side.

    @Sebastian_Mroczek 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Waiting every week for the new video :D. Small question: Adrian's lick from about 5:10: do you mute the G,B and E strings? If so, how?:D. Your index finger on the fretting hand doesn't seem more flat the the others, so I'm just curious if and how you've done it;). How do you mute thinner strings if you play thicker? Your playing always sound crisp and I'm interested how:)

    • @LicksOfTheBeast
      @LicksOfTheBeast  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      A lot of it is in how you rest your picking hand across the strings. There is some light muting going on all the time. I practice a lot with an amp with good volume, enough gain so that any imperfections stand out but not so much that it hides mistakes. It's unforgiving but it helps you spot where you need to make adjustments.

    • @Sebastian_Mroczek
      @Sebastian_Mroczek 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@LicksOfTheBeast So as far as I understand you also use your right hand to mute thinner strings as well as resting your palm on the thicker? I image this maybe as creating a little bridge with side of your palm and side of your pinky? String that your currently playing on would be "under the bridge"? ;D

      @@LicksOfTheBeastalso this way of learning just by your own ears and eyes gives you so much more experience than just following tabulatures…me personally I never use tabs, it’s always just ears until I figure it out. I would also recommend this way of learning songs to every beginner player, because this allows you to really get to know what’s going on on the fretboard. Also singing the melody and playing at the same time works very well
