That riff! Sounds great and nice playing!

Well that'll work to chase those Christmas song earworms outta my head.

I learned the song a while back, but with the practicing I've been doing, I think I need to try this solo.

Nice job. Tight!

How involved is your recording setup to be able to post clips like this?

 

[TSJMajesty]

Oh shit. 32nd notes @ 104? NOT happening! Maybe the tab is wrong, and/or I could distill it down to sextuplets...?

Quite Simple Insert track, Helix into MOTU M2 no post effects in DAW except some level control
Hit record and play, same as all my other clips, all tones are from Helix Direct most of my patches have Multiple snap shots

Oh s**t. 32nd notes @ 104? NOT happening! Maybe the tab is wrong, and/or I could distill it down to sextuplets...?

I never found ant Tabs that were any good, so did it by ear

 

[TSJMajesty]

did it by ear

Wow!
Songster tabs aren't 100%, but generally very good. The biggest problem I've found is the positions sometimes aren't practical.
Sometimes I'll find a video in which I can tell the guy has it perfect, then I'll compare the 2, and make adjustments.

anyone who attempts this solo should immediately be respected. so many players have tried to do the sykes runs, and only joel hoekstra and doug aldrich have really come close.

even steve vai didn't even come close to getting that down, though i did remember him doing something cool in its place.

mad respect.

Many many hours spent at slow speed on YouTube trying to get it and I did not succeed at getting it right on
but thank you for the kind words
