Hi this is my entry to the GMC Zakk Wylde contest
Enjoy it...

Really controled, sounds awesome, sweet harmonics, and looks like you really enjoyed yourself doing it!
Good luck winning the contest!

Just curious, is the wrist band and ring for looks, a signature, or does it actually help with the playing, or both? I've noticed some professionals wear a type of wrist guard when shredding it up!

These are only for the look man, the rings and other jewellerys are not involved into my playing smile.gif

Excellent take, best of luck! smile.gif

All great prizes but I think it's a shame they just give out a *cheap* Marhsall MA stack that Zakk does not even play...
They could have added a standard jcm 800 OR the new signature Marshall amp that Zakk is going to get soon!


Posted by: Mate Nagy Aug 12 2010, 03:15 PM

Wow, that looks awesome biggrin.gif

Zakk's new amp is going to be amazing!
His personal choice of tubes built into a slightly modified JCM800 top. The thing I am most curious about is the cab though: 4 EVL Black Label Speakers (Zakks signature speakers) each speaker cost 300$ alone and it's extremely heavy - this cab is going to shake the walls!

Posted by: Mate Nagy Aug 12 2010, 03:42 PM

From where did you get information about this stack ?

From a German musicians forum... and they got the info of Zakk's twitter account!

Zakk Wylde Marshall Steel Curtain Signature:
JCM800/2203, 100 Watts with 6550tubes...1960 Lead Cabs packed with 200W EV Signatures.

The volume on those amps actually does go up to 11^^

Haa I loved the crazy part at 0:34 cool.gif and after that great riffing. Good luck to the contest !

Posted by: Mate Nagy Aug 12 2010, 08:27 PM

Thanks for the wishes!
The problem is that the number of the views are very low . . .
So I don't how much chance I have . . .

Posted by: Zsolt Galambos Aug 14 2010, 04:46 PM

Great entry, man! If Zakk sees this, he'll definitely love it! I hope that you'll win, thums up smile.gif

Posted by: Fre Aug 14 2010, 05:00 PM

Superb take and really cool harmonics! You deserve to win.
If you have some time, can you make some Wylde lessons from not too high level?
I really want to play Zakk Wylde stuff but I can't begin at the high level playing.
Thanks

Posted by: thefireball Aug 14 2010, 06:35 PM

I'm not even gonna try. I know I couldn't win. I'm a newbie. Wouldn't stand a chance against shredders like you. biggrin.gif

Posted by: Gabriel Leopardi Aug 15 2010, 02:05 AM

What an amazing video Mate!! I love your tone and vibrato as well as your fast pentatonic licks. You really nailed Zakk's style on this video. You deserve to win one of those prizes. Best of lucks!

Posted by: Mate Nagy Aug 15 2010, 10:53 AM

Thanx man!

The first goal is to break into the top five . . .
The top five will be selected by the number of views and overall preformance.
From the top five Zakk Wylde will choose the best . . .

Sure!

I'll do a chicken picking series from beginner to advanced, so everybody will be able to play at his/her own level . . .
