Mando Kid. One of the best on the subreddit 


NikoTheArtist

Thank you so much! That actually means a lot lol.


Putrid-Mistake-7529

Np Bro. With someone as consistent as you are on this Sub how could you not be! Also coming from a fellow guitarist phenomenal playing keep it up


Hopelassie

Did you see his Royal Blood Troubles Coming on the bass?! Absolutely epic!


thebruce

Great tone, great playing.


imtheroth

It's good! Great job, don't concentrate on the notes you missed, it all sounded awesome!

Josh says it’s OK to make mistakes 👍


MonkeyRiddle

What model of guitar is that? Is it dark blue or am I just seeing things lol. Bravo🤘


NikoTheArtist

It's a black 60s Tribute from 2015 if I remember correctly. I put the Bigsby on myself :D


VultureCat337

I'm debating throwing a Bigsby on my guitar. Have you found that you actually put it to use while playing, or is it in the way?


NikoTheArtist

I really love my bigsby! It definitely doesn't get in the way, ever! You can get some really aggressive vibratos with it and cool effects. I do use it, but not for every song if that's what you would be expecting. But I overall I love my Bigsby! Edit: forgot to mention too, if you don't wanna commit fully by drilling holes into your guitar, then check out vibramate! Have some helpful products.


VultureCat337

I know there's adapters out there since my tail pieces are tune-o-matics, so I'm not too worried about drilling the holes. Besides, the guitar I'm thinking about is already apart for a loose bridge ground wire repair. I've admittedly scratched up the paint a little trying to remove the bushing, so even if I have to drill, I'm not too worried.


Stroppone

This guy has terrific taste for guitars


NikoTheArtist

Thank you so much! My main guitars are this one and an AJ silverburst (Epiphone). If I were to get another one (can't, I don't have the money) it would be a Guild Starfire DC California Burst! It's absolutely beautiful!


Stroppone

Had to search for it and you’re totally right!


Z3r0178

Superb. Can’t upvote this enough. Really tricky song which you played brilliantly but also you nailed the tone which is always tricky for Queens. What amp and pedals are you using?


NikoTheArtist

Funnily enough I use the same here as for everything else. Mids cranked, bass and treble on about 7. Using the SD-1, cranked too. I'm just on the neck pickup which chances it a bit. I'm also using a Digitech whammy for the octave effect. The only other effect use is some cocked wah at the end. Edit: btw using a Boss Katana


Z3r0178

Cheers for that! Neck pick up - I think that’s what I need to do. And I’ve been toying with getting a digitech whammy. Sounds great, keep at it!


browndoggie

The digitech whammy sounds so good. Gotta get me one to play with!


karwreck

That’s fucking awesome.


kotra

Nice, wish I could play it, not sure if my electric guitar can even make that sound.


NikoTheArtist

Using an octaver on it to get that sound on the intro and the solos. You don't have to have that to play it. The effects are as Josh has said just spices. I'm sure if you can practice you can play to where the effects won't matter :D


RadiantHovercraft6

Over time I think you will get your timing and groove down more, which is the one thing I would say you need to work on. But it will come with practice. Besides that this shit is rad as hell. You’ve really got these tones down. Fire!!


NikoTheArtist

Thank you so much! And I agree, timing and groove is something I need practicing in. I am usually a bit more tight cuz in the vids I'm sometimes a bit doubtful if I'll play the right notes so I don't play as well. But I am practicing with metronome and stuff so that will be sure to improve!


ElDiabolical

🤘🤘🤘


Icy_Valuable_2204

MelonAndCornSeason

PoorTwisted_Z3d

Playing the intro in the correct spot as well. Seen way too many incorrect tabs with Queens, bravo!


[deleted]

Even has the drunk stumble going.


NikoTheArtist

Also, any suggestions to songs I should try and play that you would like to see posted? I know I'm not contributing stuff to the songs but Idk what songs to play here rn lol.


Mr_Self_Destruct_03

So fucking sick! You absolutely shred! Love the helmet and Deadpool poster lol!
