Super Smash Bros. (3DS & Wii U): Main Theme - Guitar Cover

[RichaadEB]

Hi all, this'll be my first post.

I arrange progressive rock / metal covers of VGM tracks and post them to my YouTube channel (original, I know). I've had quite a bit of positive feedback in the past, and have had people suggest a few times that I share some of my work here.

This is my latest cover, which is of the excellent SSB4 Main Menu theme. I'd like to think that this is my strongest mix to date, I took quite a while revamping my tones and trying to make everything sound as professional as possible with my limited production experience.

Any and all critique or comments are absolutely appreciated; I hope you enjoy:

Hey, great playing !

Have you tried Amplitube (or any other amp sim) instead of podfarm? I dont know, I think the tones with podfarm are a little thin, or maybe its me.

If you ever got the chance, you should check the PRC and MnP compos here in the forum, they are quite fun. (and good to practice)

I haven't, admittedly. I'm personally pretty happy with my tones as they are now given the limitations of the interface and software, but they're definitely not professional-grade. I'd like to get an Axe-FX or Pod HD Pro in the future when I have millions of dollars to throw around.

And thanks for the heads up about those comps!
