You can literally tell when it's Gates by just the first couple of seconds of a song. You can also tell when it's Zacky. They both have signature styles, though a lot of times they may feel similar. You can also feel the emotion in Gates' guitar. The sound of what he's playing tells you what the overall feeling of the song will be. In buried alive the first half of the song gives me a sorrowful, guilty tone just from the vocals and guitar work. The second half feels insane, dark, angry, and overall as if you might be listening to the story of a man going insane. Gates, Zacky, Shadows, Brooks, and Johnny all have signature styles, with Gates having the most distinct sound. Each member of the band has a unique sound, whether it's vocals, guitar, drums, bass, etc. Once you really get into Avenged Sevenfold, you can tell each Jimmy, Mike, Erin, and Brooks from each other. Same thing for Zacky and Gates. It's absolutely amazing how unique the band is in many different ways. Tl;dr: Avenged Sevenfold is unique as fuck in multiple ways.

Hes good but "one of the best" is a stretch lol

Ugh that was fucking awful lol

Mikey Blakley nah by the end of his career he’ll be one of the goats

@@laynebrock doubtful, he's good but one of the best

Lmao bro he caught you.

The look he gave matches this so well💀

🤣🤣

You are nothing. Signed God

Bruhh i don’t have effect🥲

@jameszacknehring787shut yo ass up

Agree 100%

Looks like papa gates doing that.

Hit ya with the "have you been practicing??" 😂

I believe he uses axe fx 2

@R Skip you meant terrific

Literally

Clean + Chorus + Delay + Reverb Maybe.. 😬

A ton of delay.

Went to BSOM

It IS effortless dipshit

@@poohead8022 What the fuck is your point and more importantly what the fuck is your problem?

@@sycbeck652 I’m a Poohead 🤷‍♂️

Yeah then have a secondary guitarist to play rythm, and harmonize with him..? Maybe some crazy ass bass player, and a octopus infused drummer... Thatd be a cool band. Call it revengeX7 or something. 😂😂😂

​@@trustworthydanRevengeX7 lmao

​@@trustworthydan "octopus infused drummer" 😂😂

He plays in the band called avenged sevenfold

@@amylosanowych9248 The joke - You -

Keong Racun when is it?

+LingKiin Either bro, but we just wait😉👍

LingKiin they said recently they want to start writing it when this tour is done

Oh ok

Same.I bet it will be sick af

Ikr. Im trying to learn it rn and its a pain in the ass. I’ve already nailed the first part of the intro not the second one. But i’ve only been playing for 11 months so i should probably choose easier songs

Syn is just like that. He'd be playing Beast and the Harlot solo and looking like he's bored. He has enough skill to piss us other guitarists off

M8 he wrote it, that's why it's easy for him

It's his wife, not gf.

Didbu get an autograph? (from his dad)

@@hazardgaminghg122 was not his wife at the time, this was like 2006.

@@hideotrolljima907 no because im an idiot, his dad was sitting with his girl at the time, i kinda ambushed Gates at the foodstop.

Eres él mejor

lmao

Common sense 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Dude, that's fingerstyle 101 haha. Better late than never though

Oh, maybe you're actually talking about the left hand thumb ? Yeah, you can use it to play note too, it doesn't have to stay on the back of the neck ;)

Danny I cheat lol

TMmA Borno Exactly same here bro...

TMmA Borno or his underwear or a watch or socks or his vase or a piece of art, his bead sheets, his bed you know any of that would that would be nice...

And im the biggest fan in the alternate dimension

Generating Random so in an alternate dimension which means this dimensions counterpart. Wow, you really know how to completely remove yourself from the equation.

I saved up for a year to buy the original black and white custom , it plays amazing .

Seth Bailey slash or frusciante are still above, but Syn is great

*ahem* john frusciante

Yeah, he's one of them. one of the greatest guitarists. Still young

He’s great but not the greatest. Jimi hendrix, gary moore, steve vai, srv is the greatest guitarists of all time

Have you heard of Randy Rhoads my friend?

3.1 on the a string

*d string

What he said! ^^

3rd fret on the D string. Natural Harmonic

It's actually a harp harmonic. KZfaq the technique.

Yes....agree

Yeah very⁷ nice... 👍👍👍

Yesss.......

Alip ba ta the best..😁

Who the f is alip ba ta

That's what she said

@@chadradge9460 😂😂😂 nice

It’s his mind that’s special, not his fingers.

go to Alip ba ta channel and see what he doing to cover this song

@@stupendous7848 I agree, contrary to what many think you don’t need big hands to play guitar. Matter of fact, fat hands would even be harder to play guitar with because big fat fingers make it harder to precisely hit frets cleanly. Been playing 15 years and I got small ass hands and can play damn near anything I want

Reckless entertainment I agree

LoL😂😂

Without syn .a7x wouldn't exist and without the rev

I beg to differ...none of the rest of the band are mediocre. Especially not M Shadows and The Rev. Zacky’s pretty good too. Johnny’s an average bassist, but good enough.

@@stupendous7848 M shadows voice is so powerful and unmistakable

@@jacksvillage9861 As a guitarist, I’ma tell you: Jimi Hendrix isn’t overrated. Musical taste is subjective, and even though Jimi’s music isn’t much my type, I can get why so many people see him as the best guitarist ever. He was very innovative, both musically and technically, and always seemed like a complete natural when playing guitar. As for Synyster, I can tell you that he’s among the very best (if not THE best) guitarists of this generation.

@@shalashaska6658 Hendrix got the 6 screw strat trem to stay in tune despite all his best efforts. Even EVH couldnt tame the strat trem.

Bars Brown yea you can hear in the studio recording

ı used

We all do!

You know there is a full song

Muhammad Daffa Marbun i think he means full version of him playing the intro

Did you learn it yet?

I've been trying to learn it. It's been 2 years and it still doesn't sound anything like what he plays. The finesse tho

Its easy man you'll get it

It because of how close the camera mic is to the guitar, the “ting” you are hearing are the actual strings UNDERNEATH the sound of the amplifier. The reason you won’t hear that on a stage is because the loud sound of the amp will drown that “ting” out. In other words, even at this camera angle, if he turned the amp up louder you wouldn’t hear the ting as much (or moved farther away)

@@ShinyFlakesShinyFlakes you can hear at live too..
