To all those complaining that people are playing in a background, well, Guthrie is a guitar teacher at many colleges across the UK (ACM in Guildford for one). This is a class he is teaching to his students ffs, not a concert. The whole point of this lesson is for his students to bring their guitar and learn.

Wow, I've been playing 23 years, and here Guthrie lets on to such a simple concept--bending down instead of up for an easier vibrato--that works brilliantly and that I never thought about before. Amazing!

I've taught classes like this and sometimes (not all the time of course) you want the students too be trying out things in the moment. It can help them to assimilate what you're saying and they'll come up with questions then and there that might not otherwise arise. I'm sure they didn't play the entire time.

hm that is interesting I had been bending towards the lower strings on the top 3 and towards the higher strings on the lower because I was told that way was right but this does sound better

@JadeTigerKungFu 12 жыл бұрын

He uses it to refer to a guitar with 22 frets as apposed to 24. In the 80's 24 fret guitars were popular with kids (teens) who wanted to shred.

Guthrie is definitely one of the best guitarists out there, he needs more recognition. Plus I wish these guys weren't so rude and stopped playing when he's talking :P

@gatluva I was in Guthrie's '07 Guitar Breaks class. All I can say is that he's a good lecturer and a great demonstrator, but he throws so much stuff at you so fast that it leaves you baffled. While great at showing you what is *possible*, you need something like a 1 hour session with Neville to unpack 5min Gurthrie demo. Neville encourages his students to try things out along with him (unplugged). Guthrie's a guru, but Neville's a real teacher.

For some players they get too good. The technique is amazing and he's one of the world's best technical guitarists but making a song everyone loves? You have to keep it simple to a certain extent, for me it's all about the music.

@Aervil 8 жыл бұрын

I dont have any doubts its all about the music for Guthrie Govan either., I think when you've studied and listened to all the different genres, and know them quite well, if not mastered them, your own musical taste starts to break out and become something very unique and very odd for most people., Since most people only hear mainstream music that everybody else listens to, thats what they're ears are used to listening to, thats what they can relate too. A person who's listened through decades of music aswell as studied it isn't really in the same ballpark as a person who's listened to the radio his/her whole life.. They're really in separate dimensions of the artform.. not better or worse than eachother, just very different. Its not that they get too good at playing guitar, its they're musical taste that evolves really. With that said, I dont really care much for guthries music either, i just find him kind of fascinating from a guitarist point of view!
