Eric Johnson - Stratagem (Guitar Cover)

Here is my cover of Eric Johnson's Stratagem from his brand new album Collage which is available on iTunes.

Eric Johnson is my 'GUITAR HERO" and continues to inspire me as a guitar player and musician.

Thanks very much for watching. This was a real hard slog working this out by ear. I lost count of the number takes this took.

Nice work! I’ve been transcribing it myself (tab & notation). I have all of it done except the solo section. Great to see I’m not the only EJ fanatic crazy enough to try and suss this song on my own.

Second young dude I have seen doing this. Both guys are excellent players. I think YouTube has helped players learn these difficult pieces visually as well as aurally. Makes me wonder what the next innovation could possibly be with guys (and girls) this young playing to this standard. Great job.

Clean playing and notes. Would be great to have the tab on your website. Gonna figure out through video for now haha

[NicholasHighsmith]

Your a beast bro probably even better now

Bravo! Very well done sir! I don't have that album yet but I'm listening to it on the EJ YouTube channel. Was curious, you said you used a Fractal Audio Axe FX II... is there an Eric Johnson preset on that unit? Was wondering how you just nailed the same delay tones as the album?

[ferjimenez]

Awesome work! by the way, it is a backing track, or are u just playing over the original?

[Rebel-zwhv]

Props to you it’s very hard to sound like EJ but you did it good work

[Cesar]

Man... your tone is insane. Gear please.

[ismaelbarajas]

Awesome do you have the tab? Sounds like the original song good work

[paulvinova]

Wow, amazing 10/10. I've been trying to transcribe this since I heard it as 'Eric Johnson's new instrumental 2017' haha, but I got lazy with it. I figured most of it, but it's the little Eric nuance's that I never get. If you ever got round to it, I pay money for tablature.

Keep up the amazing work o7

[austynmccarty]

Could u possible put out some tabs for this please

[trevorlewis]

What is that first chord you play? The one it opens with?

[mattmilauskas]

Awesome playing Daniel! Tough song to master no doubt, but not for you.
Do you mind telling me how you learned this? Was there a tab somewhere, or did you just map it all out by ear?

[adriankovacs]

If anyone wants tabs:Go and search up Songsterr

[creevision]

Wow, I've recently this Eric Johnson song and now someone can duplicate it.
