Just saw this not 5 min ago, Schecter guitars just posted it on there Facebook Page. Awesome for Ben

Ben's 30 shredders in one solo was a "perfect shott"!

Posted by: Slavenko Erazer Aug 24 2013, 09:39 AM

At first sight i thought Ben's got an endorsement deal from Schecter

But anyway,it must have been an honour there standing next to legend - Jeff Hanneman !

Anyway, i preffer Ben's tone and feeling in playing more, this guy's more "thrashy" type of player, u can't even hear half of notes, like he swallowed it..

That was sooo cool

Ben's tone is WAY better, partly because Adam is using way more gain (we all know how much gain Ben uses and how much it sounds like he's using ) and partly because Adam is using EMGs which pick up way more gain than Ben's passive pickups.

This is a very good attempt, but Ben's was perfection. Ben's playing was even and extremely clean I enjoyed watching this though, respect for Ben

The guy can play considering the best solo he did was that Adam Stewart guy. Maybe because that was more of the tone for the style. I never knew you could make a 5150 sound muddy either.

But I have to agree, Ben matched the feeling and vibrato. This dude did as he said tried to do it faster, it shows. I think he did it great, only true flaw was the tone, because some of those players aren't high balls to the wall gain people.

I like the video, it's cool to know that Ben's awesomeness is inspiring more players to do videos like this one.

I only saw this earlier today thanks to Spase showing it to me.. it was a nice surprise

I have to admit to not knowing the band Arcadium but either way, it's cool to see other people running with it and being inspired by it. I don't think it will be long before we see a 40 Shredders or maybe even a 30 Shredders part II from somebody !

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Aug 25 2013, 08:43 PM

A part II would be killer!! and I hope that the creator would be that guy called Ben Higgins.

That must feel like a huge honour that someone has taken the time to learn such a long and technical lesson, Ben

Posted by: Darius Wave Aug 26 2013, 08:33 AM

Ben...consider it a "must"...a think that the social pressure will make You do the second part ))

Posted by: Slavenko Erazer Aug 26 2013, 08:53 AM

Yeah, or some german guy will have to bribe him good this time..

Posted by: Ben Higgins Aug 26 2013, 09:13 AM

I wasn't referring to myself..

I meant somebody else out there in the world will no doubt go one step further one day

It's like when you see some big achievement.. it's the first one. But it then inspires more and more that end up being bigger achievements but inspired by the first one. If you know what I mean ?

I've done my duty, it's time for someone else to take up the baton

Posted by: Gitarrero Aug 26 2013, 05:29 PM

been there, done that

24 bottles of german beer should bring us 24 more Ben Higgins collabs

Posted by: Ben Higgins Aug 26 2013, 06:40 PM

Even if it does take 12 years !

Posted by: WeePee Aug 26 2013, 07:29 PM

What!?

Posted by: Gitarrero Aug 27 2013, 09:07 AM

scando bastardo and I were thinking about 2 years...meaning monthly collabs.
This is the price for a box of German beer

Posted by: Ben Higgins Aug 27 2013, 12:27 PM

Well...... I guess I'll see what I can do.........

Posted by: Slavenko Erazer Aug 27 2013, 01:22 PM

U surely can't argue with German beer

Posted by: Gitarrero Aug 27 2013, 05:45 PM

It's about time you start the beer collab, Ben!

Posted by: Ben Higgins Aug 27 2013, 08:57 PM

Oh no, I don't argue with it at all !!

Posted by: Darius Wave Aug 29 2013, 01:13 AM
