RBProductions815 I agree with you, Aaron Fink Is a very good expert guitarist, him and Ben were great together on the guitars. Overrated modern mainstream rock bands like Nickelback, Imagine Dragons, Green Day, Train, Kings Of Leon, Coldplay, Mumford And Sons and One Direction don't have epic guitar riff's and solo's like Breaking Benjamin does.

I love the sound of the chorus. Especially that second chord progression. Gives me chills!

Love that tuning. That guitar sounds great.

As I watch this video, I realize I can do do this. I am just an old school player, mostly Bass guitar,but lead guitar as well. What a great teacher this is. I hope our future guitar stars watch this, they can learn a lot from this guy.

That tone though!

Doom stoner metal sound. Black Sabbath

Love this guitar tone so much. Very gritty, gain heavy but it's still got clarity for the chords. I'm sure the EMGs play a big part in this tone. I'll never stop loving EMG actives.

I love Aaron. He's one of my influences. And he's so down to earth.

Love the sounds that he is making with the guitar.

It was kind of a hard tutorial, but I finally got the whole song down. Stoked!

Breaking Benjamin is definitely unique because of their low tuning and great vocals, backed by a strong drummer. Good stuff

Aaron, idk if you look at these comments, but just in case you do i just want to thank you for giving this lesson. you and the others in BB are amazing!

They will never top dear agony. That album is perfect.

"That's the Jizzt of it...." always makes my goddammed day x)

Aaron, you were an awesome guitarist. I'm definitely following whatever you do next.

This is absolutely priceless!!! So fkn great.

Breaking Benjamin's guitar tone (Ben and Aaron) has always been underrated

The problem with this video is the fact that the song is written with two guitar parts. It was probably hard for aaron to explain all his parts without having the other part being played. Most all guitar world tutorials that have lessons with a two guitar band typically have both guitarists there present IE killswitch engage, trivium, etc

EJ Taylor Yea. I like Ben's style of Music. That's why DBD is my favorite out of Ember and DBD. Ember is great, but it's too mainstream, tbh... Ember was collaborative as hell... So it's everyone's mix, basically. But DBD was practically finished before the other joined. It had that Phobia vibe, but you can also tell it was a new album. It's not the same Breaking Benjamin, at all. Anymore.

this is a great vid i saw the rest on guitar world's site....the solo was tooooo awesome!

I think BB lacks a certain something since Aaron and the other guys are not in the band anymore. The new dudes bring a weird vibe and it is clear that Ben is maybe the essence of BB but it is not the same anymore after Dear Agony. The quality decreased a lot.

@martinfanatic532

What I'm saying is why A# over Bb? Is there a reason based on music theory that I don't know? I can't seem to find an explanation for why you'd use A# vs. Bb, whether you're actually thinking of each note/chord based on C standard tuning with the lowest string dropped a whole step or if you're still using E standard with the lowest string dropped a whole step as your orientation (as Aaron seems to be doing in the chorus). For example, in the chorus, Aaron refers to the chords shapes as E-D-C, when in reality they are C-Bb-Ab (the song is also in C minor). With regards to this particular song, Bb would be part of the scale, not A#. Unless you're telling me they wrote this song in B# minor, which does contain an A#...

@grenade.turtle

8 жыл бұрын

even though the guitar is tuned down he's just referring to the strings if they were standard to try and eliminate confusion. and for the A# thing, its because in a scale you only want a letter to occur once. for example in an F major scale there's an A so you really wouldn't wanna say A sharp. which is when you would use Bb. I got this off of Google. I think I said it right

@grenade.turtle

becuase the next note would be C. so you would have A, B and C

You're absolutely right. But my point was it doesn't matter which orientation you pick, A# shouldn't have a place in either.

You can't seem to understand anything unless you yourself go through the notes and textbooks to figure things out and only then does your brain work magic and help you understand. Well, in such cases, you still hate the teacher because they didn't teach properly but are thankful to your own brain. Not everyone can figure out the small bits and pieces together and need the teacher to explain again. Correct? That's exactly the case here. Now it ain't "bull shit." It's just a different perspective. So please, no hostility needed.
