He is one of the guitarists out there that, after I watched him play, I don't know whether to go practice or just quit.

@chrismontreuil2206 5 жыл бұрын

ZeMPzo I feel the same way but I just keep plugging away at it. Any way my wife and kids and neighborhood likes my playing. I guess it's good enough. Thanks Michael for the jumpstart!!!!

at 60 yrs old, Micheals playing has brought that feeling since I first heard him in the 70's. I did'nt quit but, I am always still in awe watching him even things I've seen and heard 1000 times, He never gets old and always delivers that hair on your arms standing up especially when he's "lost" in total shred. It is why he's one of the Metal Gods if you will. long live Mr Schenker!!

Schenker was born to play guitar solos, he's a natural improviser. I'm glad that this footage exists.

Schenker is so melodic and has incredible depth in his work. He has always set the bar so high for himself and others that are inspired by him. He leaves a lot of the fretboard masturbators in the dust.

There are so many fantastic guitarists on display here on KZfaq, and some are virtuosos. But I always come back to listen to Schenker play when I want a truly jaw dropping melodic solo. IMO no other Guitarist in history can make a guitar sing like he can.

Yup. Alot of clowns argue endlessly that Yngwie Malmsteen is the best at riffs,licks,speed,vibrato,technique,melody,composition etc. That`s simply not true. Schenker is one of the best at melody and composing solos that vary in tempo to fit the song and at making the guitar sing. YM can`t match that inate born with ability to make a guitar emote and sing. UFO should be in the rock n roll hall of fame

AWESOME!!! Priceless video!! I love M and UFO. I'm 46 and teach guitar at a store with a lot of other younger teachers and they really have no appreciation for Michael Schenker. They just don't get it. He was way ahead of the curve in his hey day, but beyond that he's just so lyrical and gifted. He can make you cry and then slam you to the pavement all in one song. God bless him he's one of the all time greats. ROCK ON!!!!

@MegaByrds Жыл бұрын

Absolutely. I hate the timing that just when he was coming into his own as an iconic player, ...heeeer's Eddie! Kinda stole the thunder. If you were 46 15 yrs ago, you are a 62 model. 2 yrs older than me. Right in line with my Schenker and UFO loving pals. Some of whom are no longer with us.

@8tonsemi 11 ай бұрын

@@MegaByrds Wow I didn’t expect to get a response 15 years later! Actually I’m a 61 model who’ll soon be be 62! And your right, all us older guys are the ones who love this era of playing and sadly some of us are not here anymore. I ran into a guy recently at a restaurant who was wearing a UFO t-shirt and immediately sparked up a conversation with him by saying, “Hey, UFO is my favorite band”. Good stuff! They certainly deserved more recognition but somehow I think it would have taken away from their appeal. Great, great band! Hang in there my brother and keep on rockin and pickin.

Big secret to his clear cutting tone is real simple gear. Stock Gibson (stock pickups-not high output), a wah, then straight into a 50w Marshall. Delay on occasion.

@ianyoung8392 2 жыл бұрын

In the 80's he approached Marshall with an idea that turned into the jcm800 many years later. So he gets the same sound just no wah.

I agree, why isn't Michael Schenker in the rock & roll hall of fame (living legend), why aren't the Scorpions and UFO in the rock & roll hall of fame, these are the guys that pioneered the way for hard rockers and metal since the 1970's. Vegas rocks gave michael the legendary guitarist of the year, Doug Alrich was freakin honored to award it to him, Marshall also gave Michael an award and they were all overdue, thank god someone notice.
