Imperium - Machine Head - Guitar Cover and Tab

  • An instrumental cover of Imperium originally Machine Head from the album Through Ashes of Empires
    Tuning Drop B -
    B, F#, B, E, G#, C#
    Note - Machine Head often tune 40 cents sharp! My cover is in normally drop B to make it easier to play along to.
    I've not done enough Machine Head so here's a classic. I've watched several of the Electric Happy Hours and pretty sure this is now correct. Some of the string noises between sections changes so feel free to add your own noises!
    The hardest part is probably the string skipping section towards the end especially if you decide to down pick most of it!
    During the tremolo section I highly recommend starting the 0 2 0 part with an up stroke or at least when it repeats as it flows a lot better - I'm pretty sure that's what Jared and Robb do when looking at the videos too.
    For those newer to playing the 5th fret notes in angled brackets are natural harmonics. Lightly rest your finger on the string without pushing down on it and you should get a harmonic to ring out.
    I had to do some funky panning at the end as YT kept thinking this was the original recording of the song.
    Enjoy the cover! The bass part will be up soon 🤘
    Full disclosure - the video and audio are done separately as it makes for a nicer video for all!
    Gear - Ibanez Art320, Ernie Ball 12-56, Logic X, Le456 amp sim and a mix of Diezel and Marshal Impulses. Stock Logic phaser effect on the intro guitar.

    A question for your next Q&A if you're still taking them: How can I improve with the more lead type playing? Is there anything that can help to go along with practice? I'm ok at the more chuggy or tremolo stuff like Gojiras Silvera, Love, Clone etc. I just get a brain fart whenever it's a bit more technical lol

    the faces you pull on each riff is exact same as what i do lol i thought i was alone.. the whole song is spot on just be a bit more aggressive on the pinch harmonic main riff sounds like not bending (vibrato) quite enough tidy as though identical

    • @ShadowMantraSteve

      It's a natural harmonic. Lightly rest your finger over the 5th fret without pressing down hard and pluck the string.

    • @ShadowMantraSteve
      @ShadowMantraSteve  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I'd say on the whole it is easier. It's just the faster section towards the end that can be fiddly. The verses are pretty straight forward once it's in the muscle memory.

    Thanks for the homework, by chance what key is this in ?

    • @ShadowMantraSteve
      @ShadowMantraSteve  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It jumps around different scales/keys a lot but mainly it's mainly in minor keys. Tuning wise it's Drop B and MH like to tune 40 cent sharp.
