Ciao! Pro e contro di chitarre col tremolo?

Pro: puoi usare il tremolo per fare dive bombs, vibrato, fluttering etc.
Contro: cambiare corde è una pigna in culo, accordarle anche, preferirei registrare sempre con una chitarra a ponte fisso.
Poi ci sono ponti come quello music man che non hanno bisogno del bloccacorde e funzionano come quelli fissi pur avendo il tremolo, e sono i migliori :)

What you think about that BKP CTS pot 550k? it helps a lot? did you try? thanks!

It's not that important at all, but everything sums up in the end and since it's cheap and high quality, why not. It opens up the tone a bit, and makes it even a tiny bit tighter imho. Works like a "true" 500k pot. I have it in almost all my guitars :)

if you want to record a guitar cover outside, would you record audio first, go outside and record video separately, then sync them?

I personally find filming and playing the guitar outside incredibly awkward and even terrible at times. Would you ever bring your electric guitar to play it in the garden???
Some of my kickass guitar friends do it as well but I still think it's nonsense. No fancy background with water, trees and shit will save from awful music (not saying yours is haha).
If you think it blends well with the music you want to "portrait" then do it, it will surely look cool! But still awkward, to me at least :)
Anyway returning to your question: yes you'd have to record the audio portion, then film yourself and then sync up the two.

When you have time, why don't you do what the Bad Salad guys did? Like a full band cover (or at least guitar amd vocal) of a famous metal song. It's a lot of work but you'll get a ton of views and band promotion

Band's music gets band promotion best, not covering other people's stuff :) but covers are cool nonetheless! Both me my drummer and other guitarist have covers on YT and soon our singer will post one too.
I personally think covers help the single musician get noticed but they don't work in the long run.

For your youtube videos, do you record audio and video at the same time?

It depends, some of my vids audio and video are captured at the same time, some others are audio synced with video after the fact, depends on the purpose or if I'm in the mood for doing something improptu or more "well-finished". :)

If you ask non musician what guitar looks best, what do they usually say?

When non musicians enter my studio and see stuff, they're usually like "omg how yellow is this guitar", "oh look at the green one", "OH THIS ONE IS MADE OF WOOD"........classic.

How did ancient civilizations in general get gems and precious metals? How did they cut the gems with adequate quality?

bro the google bar is up there

Can you play simple bass line with thumb while still playing other notes with your finders? Like classical or jazz way

Yes, I love to do that! Very jazzy if I do it on a shuffle vibe, very latin if I do it in regular quarters.
This is not exactly the same thing but here I'm playing bass roots with my thumb and arpeggios with other fingers: http://youtu.be/bTcjd70wV2gFrancescoFiligoi’s Video 55025426772 bTcjd70wV2gFrancescoFiligoi’s Video 55025426772 bTcjd70wV2g

Do you know how to play solo jazz pieces?

yes I can, it's not THAT difficult since most of the time it's 16th notes with lots of chromatics and alternate picking. It's not that fast, but the "outside vibe" makes it sound more difficult than what it actually is.

If You can't play everything You want, what are your weaknesses?

I want to work on my hybrid picking more, on tapped arpeggios, get even faster at alternate (10-15bpm more wouldn't hurt), also use sliders and get better at tons of non-metal related techniques that involve strumming and muting. Use fingers only. My major weakness though is not be able to sing and play at the same time (except very simple stuff). My mind goes total crap, I just can't do it.

If you were getting a Carvin 7 what body woods would you choose?

Depends which 7, which purpose, genre, pickups I want to put it, tuning...too vague!

How much time did it take you to go from "I will never play E-minor chord!" to "meh, I can do anything"? ;)

I cannot do anything I want on guitar, there are thousands guitarists who are technically more proficient than me :) It took me two fuckin weeks to properly do a barrè chord on a classical guitar in my teens haha

Do you think wenge is a good top wood for a mahogany/black limba backed six string? Im looking for a tight upper-mid range rhythm sound and a crisp/articulate high end, not overly bright. I know that pickups are a big part and I will choose some bkp's according to my tastes. Bolt on by the way

No wenge wouldn't be a good top in your case, I'd choose koa body and bubinga top. It would be PERFECT for that

Have you ever tried playing lefty guitar? How much can you actually play, can you even strum or form chords?

I've tried once or twice, being lefty I had to you know :) my left hand was picking very powerful and fast with no training, but the right hand was a total disaster so I quickly returned to my righty posture haha

Do you think a Pod Hd or an eleven rack is better for recording? I heard that most of the eleven rack stuff only works in pro tools and you have to buy all of the good sounding amp sims?

Pod hd is better.

If your child was born with six fully functioning fingers on each hand, would you get them surgically removed? Or would you let him live with six fingers?

He could potentially gain money as superb shredder and circus freak, no way I'd cut his finger off haha!

What is the minimum I need to record a decent quality guitar track. Is a Line 6 Pod + Computer + Software enough?

What matters the most is your guitar skills and ideas, so yes it's more than enough
