    Savatage tab books coming soon!

    I've been going over my Savatage transcriptions again, and making some edits. Mostly little formatting things that probably no one will notice. However, I did discover something interesting yesterday. After watching some live videos of the Gutter Ballet title track, I determined that Criss...

    Cynic - Focus official tab book coming soon (transcribed by me!)

    So happy to announce the official transcriptions for Traced in Air! This is one of my favorite albums of all time, and I had a blast dissecting it and transcribing every layer and nuance.

    New Dream Theater Coming

    I originally lined up the tab alongside the album audio, but it got taken down immediately. Not sure why, considering my Untethered Angel and Fall Into the Light videos are the same format. Anyway:

    I'm thrilled to announce that I've been working with Paul Masvidal on official guitar transcriptions!

    I put together a video with audio samples straight from my Guitar Pro 7 transcriptions. The original recordings are on the left side, GP7 audio on the right. @bmgguitars @ElectricPhase @haffner1 @ocaptainjr2 thank you all for your support and great feedback!

    Today marks 25 years since Criss Oliva was tragically killed by a drunk driver. With my transcriptions and videos, I'm trying to do my part in keeping his music alive.

    Still working on it, hopefully I'll have some news next week. I've been working with someone to get this project in front of Jon Oliva.

    I have a couple people helping me to try to get this project in front of Jon Oliva. Hopefully I'll have more news on that soon and can finally get the transcriptions released.

    Finished transcribing this album over the weekend! Also, I saw TSO in Philly on Sunday and got to talk again with Jeff Plate about the project. Hopefully once this tour is over, we'll be in touch more often.

    The Streets album is now complete, and here's my medley! I also did some tone-matching for this video, I think I got pretty close. I've tone-matched stuff from most of their other albums, I think it would be cool to release the patches when the transcriptions get released.

    Thanks, I can't wait to get these transcriptions out! I've added you to my list of people to contact once they're released.

    Hopefully soon! Thankfully I now have help from someone who's been close with the band for many years, and we're working on the logistics of releasing the transcriptions. Thank you! Edit: Somewhere In Time is now complete, which puts me at 100 songs!

    New Satriani

    I wish he had Minnemann and Beller on this. I thought the last few albums with Keneally brought a much-needed freshness. Professor Satchafunkilus was a low point (in name and in content). I'm sure there will at least be a few gems on this one though, that's usually the case.

    Wow, I didn't even know there was a book for Low. I hope it's better than the books for The New Order and Practice What You Preach, I found some samples for those and they're not encouraging...

    Savatage tab books coming soon!

    I would like to transcribe some stuff from Low, that's one of my favorite Testament albums. So far, I've just done a few songs (For the Glory Of, Henchmen Ride, FEAR, and The Pale King) from the most recent records. I'd love to do an anthology type book for them, but I feel like I'd need the...

    Savatage tab books coming soon!

    I transcribe in Guitar Pro 7, and I have all of the songs ready to go in GP6, GP7 (this version looks best), and PDF formats. I'd still love to release something in print, but that's not very practical for the complex multi-track songs. GP7 finally has a pick slide function, and Criss Oliva...

    Sweet! I'll keep everyone updated in this thread as things move along. On that note, I just finished transcribing Tonight He Grins Again. In addition to all the guitar parts, I also did the piano and strings.

    Savatage tab books coming soon!

    Good to see some responses already! I'm thinking this will more than likely be a digital release. It would be difficult to print something like Morphine Child, which has up to 5 tracks going simultaneously. I'm hoping to talk to the guys in person when I see TSO in Philly in December. I...

    HI folks! My first post here, but I've been proudly playing Fractal for a couple years now. Anyway, I thought I should post about a project I've been working on that may interest some of my fellow guitar nerds. Since April, I've been transcribing Savatage songs with the goal of releasing a...
