[G#] When I started learning, I think it's just like everybody else, you just want to learn songs from your favorite bands.
But to me, it's just, the guitar is just endless.
I mean, you know, the combinations and I said with scales and everything like that, to me,
it just, it really is endless.
I mean, the first thing I learned, I remember when I learned how to play Back in Black, just the lick.
It wasn't so much,
you know, I mean, that I could actually play the lick and I could play along with the record.
To me, that was,
that was a major feat right there in itself, that I could physically do it.
No, it's just, you know, I always tell kids it's no different than playing video games.
I said, you know, you keep getting to certain levels and certain levels and that's the joy of the game.
I said, you don't practice video games.
You play them and then you enjoy playing them.
It's not practicing.
You know, you're playing and you're just physically getting better and better and better and better.
So you could actually play more stuff by more of your favorite bands.
And that's the beauty of it.
So, you know, you know, and then, you know, once you get done doing the heavy stuff for a little while,
it's just like, oh, let's take a break from this for a little bit.
And then you either sit behind a piano or you pick up an acoustic guitar and, you know,
it'll put you in a different mindset [D] right there.
You know, but I mean, as far as the hard stuff goes, for me, it always starts with the riff.
You know, it's just, you know, whether it's Sabbath and Zeppelin, you know,
and I mean, the three, the Bach, Beethoven, and Mozart, the riffs is obviously
Ritchie Blackmore, Tony Iommi, and Jimmy Page, you know, so that, and that's just a fact.
That's not even an argument, you know, so, I mean, as far as the
masters of the riff, but, uh,
yeah, to me, it always starts with the riff, as far as hard rock music goes.
[C]
[D#] [Dm] Well, as [N] far as the guitars go, with Wild Audio, we have the Odin right here,
and the two guitars up there, you have the Warhammer,
the Viking V, and then we're working on the Barbarian right now.
You know, I create all the guitar designs, you know, I'll just be drawing them at the house and stuff like that,
and then I'll talk to my one buddy, John, and then he'll end up putting it on a,
you know, making more of a computer graphic thing, so it just, you know, the thing starts coming to life,
and then making it more 3D and everything like that.
But actually, the guitar designs, the actual shapes, the headstocks, everything like that, I design them.
With this fiddle right here,
it's basically just a
crushing slab of mahogany we got over here for the body, then obviously the
maple fretboard, and then the ebony fretboard in the back, and maple back in the neck.
But obviously I got the EMGs in there, the Tone Pros, and everything, all the ingredients
that I'm gonna give you the best sound and stuff.
Owning my own company now, you just make it good.
You know what I mean?
I mean, that's the reason why we've been, for over the last year,
we've just been working on different prototypes with the necks, neck profiles,
you know, the fret wire and stuff like that, where there's gonna be 6,100 fret wire,
what we're gonna be putting in the fiddles, but
there's no end to
the [D] creative process.
That's the cool thing about having your own company.

[E] [D]
On the last album that we did,
that was Catacombs of the Black Vatican, and now this
soothing, supple, Sounds of Doom for the new Zach Wild
Book of Shadows 2 album.
That's the one that's coming out right now, so we just got finished
mixing and mastering that one.
But you come up with some riffs, or you come up with your song ideas, and then, you know,
here's the riff, you play the riff, and then I'll sit here with Jeff and I'll just play him the song.
You know what I mean?
While he's just sitting right next to me, I'll just go over the riff,
here's this part, here's that part,
here's the pre-chorus, here's the
Then we'll do this again, then we'll go into the solo,
and then we come out, and it's just like, alright, cool.
Let's, you know, we go over it maybe once or twice, and then just press record.
I'm truly blessed in the regard that I have the creative freedom where I just write the music I wanna write,
and play what I wanna play.
And the guys that I'm playing with right now, I couldn't ask for anything more.
I'm beyond blessed, man.
