This is my guitar cover of Dream Theater's 'A Change of Seasons' Carpe Diem section. I also included some performance notes on what pick and guitar I recommend you use, hand position techniques, how to make what I call a "picking plan", and how to phrase. These will really help you out if you decide to work on it! 😉

I wanted to cover the Carpe Diem excerpt because it always mystified me... The order of the notes is confusing until you realize how the open strings are being used. — A common Petrucci technique and one I'll be using in my own music soon.
