Ovation acoustics are the best. Sounds like it has a shallow body?

@Egger29 Rock on man. Learning to play the guitar is on my list of things to do, but I can't sing for anything.

I just found this - holy smokes! Tool has got to be almost impossible to cover, but these guys seriously brought it:

I love tool, never heard a cover before. Have to say the music was pretty impressive in this, different. I didn't like the vocals 'till like the 3rd verse when she got a bit more intense
...interesting!
Have to say I like the original a lot more, but was interested enough to listen to the whole song!

I love this version, and it actually made me appreciate the original for being a good song

Thanks! Yes, It's a Celebrity 12-String. Plays and sounds beautifully, but doesn't Capo cleaning which is the only drawback...at least not without re-tuning....but that could be my capo as well.

Also Breed 77 - Poison

As you can probably tell, I'm a big Breed 77 fan. Found out about them when they were supporting Fozzy. Support band better then the main act. 😂

Definately better then the original:

Five finger death punch - House of the rising sun.

Little Wing. Jimi Hendrix's song, and it's wonderful and i love it. But SRV just *kitten* kills it with his version.

Bad Wolves 'Zombie' It is as good as the original but it is also dedicated to the lead singer of the Cranberries. She was schedule for some of the vocals (Dolores O’Riordan) on the day after she past away.
