this is actually mission immpossible...what you did was a nightmare task so kudos to you! I am aware that this is a personal preference in music and that we all can add dozens of other intros, that's why I said it was mission immpossible. I'm with you in about 90%, which is more than I expected. I see intros as something that kicks you from the start, from the first note, tone, whatever, and get you hooked on the song. If I am to add something then for sure would be the "Shadow on the Wall" by Mike Oldfield. I was just a teenager when it was first on the radio, man, when I heard that intro, I was like hypnotised. But I have a great appreciation for Mike Oldfield as an artist, musician, guitarist, composer etc (like I said, perosnal preference:))). For your work and what you do - huge praise!
Hello, the selection of intros is spectacular. I listened 2 times to your video and I think there will be more to come xD... you have a lot of talent, thanks for sharing! Greetings from a new follower

@@Pyr0nEx with what he had, he did a damn good job. He could of easily just plugged in his strat and played each intro on a clean channel, but he went the extra mile and plugged in his pedal board and tried to capture each tone as close as he could by switching pedals/pickups. Not to mention he had to remember 80 songs worth of guitar tones. You may not be impressed, but I damn sure was.

The Bible is truth. Please read at least three books of the Bible, Genesis Mathew and one you chose yourself. As you do practice forgiveness, that’s what makes it click. Parents are easiest. They’ve loved you to some degree. It’s actually extremely important to forgive them specifically, that relationship has spiritual significance to God. Remember to break down before Jesus Christ and ask for forgiveness too. Please, it’s really important that you do these things as soon as possible. The Bible is truth; Jesus Christ is Lord

I think the switch just cycles through patches he's set up beforehand, one for each tune. It appears to control the modeling device you see to his left: it's indicator lights change with each song. That device would simulate each appropriate amp and stomp pedal that were in the signal chain of the original artist who made the recording.
i need these full songs on a playlist! so awesome
this guy's a real jukebox... so many different styles, and feels and sounds... I am totally blown away 🤯
Man, playing 80 riffs non-stop in their distinct tones, that too on a single strat, hats off! How much work you have put into this is simply unimaginable, esp. setting up the pedals. I wish you had played the usual ones too like Here Comes the Sun, Hotel California, Stairway to Heaven, Summer of ‘69, Take a look around etc. Maybe next time.
