Seriously one of the best guitarist alive, his sound is so signature to him. If I'm walking past someone's music playing and all I can hear is Syn playing guitar, I recognize it instantly.

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.

No doubt. One of the single best guitarists of the ages. He has so much music theory & technicalities from multiple genres that he can throw into one single song anytime and it just flows epically. His best friend, The Rev (RIP), was my favorite drummer of all time for the same reasons. (And yes I listen to many a music) he's the reason I started drumming in the first place way back when 'Waking The Fallen's' first single: "Unholy Confessions" first debuted on Fuse. Been playing ever since and am now 34. You guys changed my life, and the world of music forever. Xoxo

Hater think that synyster gates fans think he’s good just because of how fast he can play. I’m sorry but that’s just a small portion of the reason he’s one of the best.

@ShinyFlakesShinyFlakes3 жыл бұрын
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)
