Right? 😂

***** 30 years of playing everyday for hours we may be halfway there

Funny, lol. I prefer to look at as - 30 years from now I will be a hell of a lot better than I am now. \m/

***** jajajajajaja

***** 30 years from now I'd be too old and fat to practice.

That's an epic combo

+1032patrick the only thing Yngwie can share is how many burgers he can eat at once. he cant communicate...the beast of a player...Fire & Ice & Rising Force my good lord

John Petrucci and Michael Romeo

Richie Kotzen and CC Deville...

@rootwitch06 lmao....

+Scott Destan Jag Panzer rules dude!! \m/

Jag Panzer used to be a local Colorado Springs band. I lived there as a kid back in the 80s and always wanted to go see 'em but I was too young to get in the bar. I think the place was called DJ's Nightclub or something like that.

No love for Jag Panzer, the band you were in for years before Megadeth. Same on you Chris.

And I can't play as you do, and you can't play as I do. They are great, but don't underrated yourself.

Chill karen

profesor gilbert would teach this guys

+Seven .Vega Wouldn't say bad but they don't sound as clean as they usually are

+Seven .Vega Sounded like the edge of his pick clip was scraping along the strings, those things are fiddly.

+Seven .Vega even his fingers were shivering at some moments. maybe he's a bit camera conscious or that stuff is really not meant for normal guitar playing. to top that, the delay was a bit too cranked which makes it more crappy in sound.

True. He's got awesome technique still. But honestly I never got much feeling out of his playing.

Its just you

im just curious how they would even decide how one would "win" a guitar duel. thats hilarious

breathingreflection I agree. People like me who does not know where to put the pick while finger-picking would benefit from it massively. It is like inventing the slide and not turning it into a commercial product..

They are for sale, he has a web page on his site to order them i bought 5 not long ago.

Mycall1983 Really? I need to find his page then.

Mycall1983 Found it. How do they feel on the thumb? Do you actually need more than one?

They take a bit of getting used to, both in comfort and technique, some people find it a bit of a challenge t change there technique a smidgen. I was lucky the way I do pinch harmonics and other things is the same with the pic clip as without, you won't know until you try. I wear the pic clip 90% of the time. My only warning is that it is definitely market towards picking not strumming, if you play lead a lot it's a GREAT tool but due to the angle the clip sits on you're thumb it makes strumming sound and feel very heavy especially if you use thick picks like a jazz iii. One is plenty I bought 5 because I wanted Chris's signature pick and signed patent, which you only get if you buy 5 or more. I have since sold most of my spares on though I will most likely keep one spare just in case.

+JayB B Gus's is a bit excessive but Chris's gain is pretty reasonable for a lead sound, it's the long delays turning it to mush.

+Ougerson Dwoorv yeah, it kinda sucks when they're too good at music but their sound effects ruin all the fun

Attention lol

+Attention Forearms are the worst to to a lot of lifting with because if you work them like any other muscles you could develop static contractions like I did, better keep them lean and still play guitar...;)

+Ben Wong I hear you there. I think guys put too much emphasis on big guns in general and it looks imbalanced to put it nicely. Apparently it's all about the curls for the girls, right?

+lightsouthaha Thanks for mentioning your body type difference. Sometimes I forget everyone isn't built the way I am.

I thought it was awful too...it just sounded very generic, I didn't care for the vocals at all.

Thank god someone agrees with me. Chris sounds great when he isn't sweeping (i hate it when he abuses that) but vocals are so boring.

I think that the first album was good but not very outstanding. The second album, Old Scars New Wounds, is a big leap forward. Much more personality, uniqueness, and Chris is just so great...

Too much gain.

***** Crunchy amp tones can get noisy. He should switch to EMG's.

mainly because of his passive pickups. Passive pickups tends to be little more compressed, lower in output and yes noisier than the actives. Also I believe he had his gain high as well.

it sounds like shit.

too much distortion

Vincent Junio who is that guy ?

the dude is the slopiest in the industry. Almost like Hammet

That is a beginner's sweep picking

+Sot Pat I agree except that talent comes from practice and discipline. No one is born talented.

Talent is defined as natural aptitude or skill. People are definitely born with it. You could have 2 guys who practice the same thing, with the same amount of discipline, but one will be better than the other, because one is more talented than the other.

I suppose so. But if we are talking about the above video, I cannot stand Chris Broderick's playing, dont get me wrong he may be more 'talented' and is an awesome player. I just prefer Gus's approach, technique and choice of notes/licks. Whether you call that talent I dont know, all I know is that Gus's playing appeals more to me, but hey thats my opinion.

I don't know who's more talented here, but I agree with you, I like Gus's playing better, his tone, etc. I like most of his music too. Looking forward to seeing him and Angel Vivaldi in Sept.

lol probably considering the pick clip is patented by him

He uses a thumb pick so he can do all that tapping stuff, and yes, it was patented by him

+Master Kostas I mean he is clearly a good guitarist. But I think the term guitar god is personal to who is using the term. Right like to me I think Dimebag Darrell is my guitar god. His playing I enjoy to me right.

Ye... me too.. At first I Thought he was Kiko

I like bass and guitar. They are like apples and oranges. Why use only one? I am no where near as good as these two but I play for enjoyment of making my own riffs, or soloing to songs on the radio, etc. Don't let someone else scare you away from playing guitar. Our mind can be our worst enemy when we let negativity sink in. Don't ever compare where you're at to where someone else is at. Playing instruments should be like creating our own world of sound, and someone else has their own world, not have both war against each other in comparison and ruin the other. :) Music is art for individuals to make themselves for enjoyment, not compare in some egotistical competition of pride.

It was a joke, bruh.
