EXPLAINATION OF PART IN SOLO: SUPER DIVEBOMB!!!
the (5) is a natural harmonic, which you get by placing a finger over the metal bar
the frets (in this case the 5th and 6th frets) and you pick the string; i'll assume everyone
what i'm talking about. to get the super divebomb you need 2 things. first, you need a
with a whammy bar
and a locking tremolo, and you need a pedal with a divebomb effect on it (i use a
not the best thing to use but i get a sick dive and squeal out of it this way.) Okay, first
you have to do is a divebomb on the guitar. do this by playing the natural harmonic, but
afterwards use
the whammy bar and dive that in (this will make the harmonic drop in sound) and then
it back outpretty far (this will give it the squeal). there's actually a really good video
youtube where synyster gates from avenged sevenfold does them; just look for the if
having trouble it goes
more in depth and you can actually hear normal divebombs to make sure you're getting it.
this a while until you get used to it and you start getting good at it. work around
different natural harmonics when practicing, so you can experiment with different
sounds. when you
get good, the next part is using the pedal. first off, put the pedal onto a dive bomb
next, bring the pedal all the way up (similar to having the least amount of wah if using a
pedal) and as you drop the whammy bar, drop the pedal. then, as you pull out the whammy
bring back
the pedal to the original position. this is exactly how to get the sound. so...good luck
it and enjoy!
p.s. there is a slight delay on the e.p. version which i do live sometimes...just use a
pedal, simple enough
