Hey kids!!! Uncle Ben, back again, with a brand new episode of Weekend Wankshop!!!
On WW247, we're gonna be covering something special that was suggested by my loyal Patreon Patron Norman Burt!!! He brought it to my attention that there are ZERO good online tutorials on how to play the intro to Answers by Steve Vai, from his legendary Passion and Warfare album! This was the first Vai song i ever heard, and i've always loved it... and played it WRONG! Until now!
The secret is Steve's complex strumming pattern; without it, there's no way to get this sounding like the Man himself. So between the official tab book and watching TONS of live videos, i think i've nailed down what's going on. Its pretty freaking hard, it took me a while, but its worth it!
Playing my G&L Legacy USA with Bare Knuckle Veneer Board pickups, into my Fractal Axe FX 3 on the Direct Inject patch. Simple and lovely tones!!!
What other classic Vai tunes do you want to see deciphered? Lemme know in the comments!
