  • This song definitely lives up to its name. It's one awkward bugger to play! Well, that damn intro anyway!
    Here's a link to my TAB:

    This is all guitar parts arranged for one guitar so you can make things easier by picking parts out and playing them individually.
    Enjoy =)

      You play alot of DGD and you play it well. I'm curious if the band has ever contacted you in regards to this?

    The whole time I was sitting on the edge of my seat thinking "does he get after it in the bridge? does he get just straight up silly?" Yes, you did sir. You didn't disappoint.

    you should do a mashup of your favorite dgd songs or any of of your favorite songs. I think it'd be pretty cool and entertaining video. Anyways rad cover mate, you never fail to entertain me with the covers😎👌

      Thanks dude. It just takes the right frame of mind, man. Sometimes I'm just not feeling it, then I get a spurt of inspiration and can't stop!
      I saw you've got an RGD, I didn't know they did the 6 string in that colour, looks sweeet! I love my RGD 7, such beautiful guitars.

    • @Mikerisms
      @Mikerisms  7 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Yeah, I figured they're quicker than doing a tutorial for everything. This way you can all get learning right away, then I'll do some tutorials on certain parts rather than the whole thing.

    • @ThisQuietKid

      Yeah, it's mostly that intro that's difficult cos it's both guitar parts at the same time! The rest isn't too bad.

    damn. all these tabs you make are great. you should do covers and put them on rocksmith 2014. there are actually a couple of other DGD songs there. I use it a lot to learn songs i want to. you would be perfect for putting songs there.

    • @Mikerisms
      @Mikerisms  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks! Yeah, the intro is difficult, but that is both guitar parts played as one. If you either play the top part or the bottom part it will work =)

  • @rachellynn9838
    @rachellynn9838 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Love the covers! How do you choose what guitars you play on each cover? Is there a certain strategy (feel, sound, etc) that it fits in a song, or do you just like showing off all your guitars and picking randomly? Xoxo 🙂🎸

    • @Mikerisms
      @Mikerisms  7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Rachel Lynn Thanks 😀 There is a strategy yeah. Theyre all strung and set up differently and they all sound different, so i choose the one that does the best job of doing what I need it to do. The one I'm playing in this video is strung and set up for drop tuning (this song is tuned down to C#), plus it has lovely sounding coil-tapped Seymour Duncans for the clean stuff. So there is a definite method to the guitar choosing 😁

    Is the black thing on the 2nd fret being used as a capo, or to mute unwanted noise from the strings?

    @toddjorgensen872 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi Mike,
    I'm sorry to ask, but I have no Idea of the tabs and just learn from your tutorials.
    Is there a chance you could make a tutorial just for the Intro Part of this Song? I love that part but with the tabs I don't get it.
    Thanks for your great Blog! Love it!

  • @boisvert813
    @boisvert813 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Another gem, sir! Is the stringwrap functioning as a capo there as a beginning or is it still just for muting purposes?

    • @Mikerisms
      @Mikerisms  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks man. It's just for muting purposes. I kept getting an incurable harmonic on t the intro from one of the chord stretches, so used it to help tidy it up a bit.

  • @XS0780
    @XS0780 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi Mike, I have a question. What is your approach on learning all these challenging songs? Do you learn them by ear? Tabs? If you do it by ear, can you please explain your approach, or even better, make a video on how you approach it? I believe a lot of us would appreciate that greatly. Cheers!

    • @Mikerisms
      @Mikerisms  7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      XS0780 Hey dude. I work out all my covers by ear, there aren't tabs out there for most of them anyway, but I do it partly to help develop my ear even further and partly because it means I play everything in a way that really suits my fingers. there's nothing worse that trying to play something exactly like someone else when there may be another way that fits your fingers properly. I plan on doing a video on my method from start to finish, I just need the right song and a good amount of time to break it down properly. I think it'll be a difficult video to make. But it's on my list 😀

    • @XS0780
      @XS0780 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh man, I am already looking forward to that video. I am trying to stay away from tabs and work out songs by ear, but it can get a bit tedious, especially when it comes to harder songs(figuring out exotic/non-common chords, or chords in general, is the bane of my existence). Thanks for the reply dude, I will stay in tune, patiently waiting for that video.

    • @johnnyhickey1312
      @johnnyhickey1312 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Tyler Burns no it's just a string rap. I think it's for muting and string tension or something

    • @II_Holocene_II
      @II_Holocene_II 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you! I never knew what those were.

    • @Mikerisms
      @Mikerisms  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It's a GruvGear string wrap jobby. I used it on the intro because of the stretches, I kept getting an annoying little harmonic wen I played one of the chords. This little device just helps mute the strings to clean things up a bit. This is the first time I've used one, only got it the other day. Not a bad piece of kit really, don't want to use it often though, don't want to become reliant on it for muting.

    • @II_Holocene_II
      @II_Holocene_II 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Mikerisms I've seen a lot of people use it for tapping, if I want to get into tapping should I get one?

    • @Mikerisms
      @Mikerisms  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Tyler Burns It's definitely a useful tool for muting the other strings when tapping. But, I wouldn't recommend getting one if you're just starting out with tapping. I think it will probably hinder your technique so you'll end up relying on it, so when ever you play a guitar without one on it'll sound awful because you've not developed the skills to mute on your own. If you see what I mean.

      Two very different bands, both excellent. DGD are much more consistently great than TFOT; they went downhill after manipulator.
