The Line6 pod changed my life and i only have a pocket pod that i bought for 129 bucks and it is any guitar players wet dream there are so many thing you can do with it i've had it for 3 months and still havent even touched 10 % of everything that you can do with it great video man great sound get a jam box and a tascam with your pod and send away a demo and see what happens good luck dude

Great ending to a great composition!!!

Good job man, I like the song and your picking is great! I'm always more into new compositions than covers, which are cool and all, but original individual guitar compositions are much cooler-imo, that is.

cool

Both the playing and video were very impressive.

hey steve, eveything (including the wah) is coming out from the Pod X3 Live of Line 6, straight to the computer, no additional pedals or amps used

Dude, you have and really good sound and your wah is great! What are you using??

19 mph...?
Video editing is great but this contest is more about advertising than the players to me.
Well, the contest wasn't about talent ...seems to be about the most advertising you did for this site...good luck with the advertising finalists.

I CAN'T WAIT to see these young kids that learned/play with TABS try to improvise a song by ear..this is gonna be a hilarious end to this contest by watching these guys play....

Right on, man! That was pretty cool.

I think you hit 250 a couple times Fransisco- nice goin'- good luck in the contest! I think you win!

Incredible job ,man. Now thats what I call playing. I've watched the others and their shreds just sound ...well awful , just a random up and down the neck and scales and gimmicky stunts. The fact that you managed to actually play accompanying yourself, amazing job. Hope you win.

sweet stuff man. where did you get the tabs?

hey ben, thanks... I recorded the song already as soon as I saw it on the list I knew I had to do it because It has always been in the back of my mind for years, so this was a perfect opportunity to stop procrastinating. I won't reveal the song though sorry :P, it is the coolest one on the list in my opinion
Cheers

hey man, what r u gonna play? u can play just about anything. Do u have any choices to pick from that u narrowed down? I would think u would b the only 1 that could play Judas Priests "Electric Eye" & pull it off! I've seen alot of guys playing Electric Eye on youtube but they're not as good as u r, check it out when u can. That's where u have the benefit over anyone else. Electric Eye just about has to have the background rhythm or background song. otherwise it will sound horrible. you have all the computer softwear to do the background music, just get the Essential Judas priest, it has great sound quality. They have it at walmart & best buy. That's my opinion after observing you on youtube playing Metallica. If anyone else does that song it wont b good unless they do the background music perfectly. That song will take some skills for it to sound great as it is. I think u like challenges because u kno ur good, hahaha, well u r. Also how well u played in the contest. I know youll do great with any song u choose. I just cant wait to see what everyone picks. Its hard to choose for yourself so im an outside ear & thinking of what i see in that person. i cant choose for myself ever but i can hear others & tell what they'd sound good doing. lemme kno when u pick a song, cant wait to see ur choice. if u cant decide over a couple lemme know too & maybe i can help u choose which one i think would sound the best. Hell, it'll at least gimme something to do, i still want to be part of this somehow. Lol... ttyl bro,
ben

and thanks for watching :)
