Hey Rockers,

Here's another cover. This one is to honour Ronnie James Dio as one of the greatest heavy metal singers of all time. Unfortunately cancer took him away. I was lucky enough to see him live on stage one last time with Heaven and Hell in the Netherlands in 2007.

RIP "The Man On The Silver Mountain"
1942 - 2010 Ronnie James Dio.

Thanks Bogdan, Todd, Gabriel,

I have to get that guitar checked out again I think. Or could it have something to do with pressing to hard on the fretboard? And by pressing too hard, pressing it slightly out of tune?

Very cool song choice Jeroen! smile.gif You have a very cool playing attitude and the video is well made.

On the technical sides of playing there might be few minor timing issues where you play slightly ahead of the beat when riffing (in front), usually in the verses which have a tricky palm muting rhythm to follow. I don't know if its my ear by the intonation of the guitar might be slightly off which can be heard in the solo section?

Overall this is a very cool cover video and I'm having it on repeat - I haven't heard this song in ages and it is so cool.

Well said on everything smile.gif Killer job on the entire production!!! Lots of good work here.

Sadly thouh, I hate to say it but yes, that guitar has some intonation issues that I keep hearing in every video that I see that guitar in sad.gif I think I remember JEROEN mentioning that he took it to a Luthier who said it was intonated. If this is the case, it needs to go back to a different Luthier. It's gone intonation problems that are getting in the way of the solo bits sad.gif

The great Jeroen did it again!! hehehe amazing video mate! You did a killer job with the edition on this one.

Take care of the details that Bogdan and Todd marked (we are already working at Gab's Army) and keep on rocking the world! smile.gif

Yes, this might be the issue. If you press down too hard, it is possible to get the notes out of tune. Also, it is possible to slightly bend the string up or down unconsciously, therefore also making it out of tune. You could hook up your guitar to a tuner to "visually" see what kind of impact strength the fretting hand has on the pitch. If you have already taken this guitar to the luther, it might be worth examining the technique in close details. I think you have really good skills and fixing those tuning issues would mean a lot for your performance and sound.

Maybe as a test, try recording a clean solo lesson which doesn't have much bending/vibrato:
