I think those impressive thing about MAB, is how sweet of a guy he is. he is so approachable and willing to hang with his fans. total gem of a guy

MA : Hi! I'm Michael Angelo Batio and welcome to my home studio, MonsterMix Studio. yeaah! The boy who knocks the door : Oh, ok sir, here's your pizza.

i dont know why people rag on him, he seems like a nice guy and he is one of the pioneers of shred

is that how he opens the door to everyone?

I love how he's so enthusiastic about everything even after all these years. He even lives in a humble place instead of a giant ass mansion like most people.

Met Michael last year and i must say he is a gentleman . Amazing guy, no ego , very down to earth , I told him abt my dreams with music he wished me luck and even asked my name . who does that after achieving so much in life.

Petrucci studied one of MAB's instructional videos and gives MAB credit for turning him on to Jazz 3 picks. So much for your footstool theory.

"I bought a second one just in case."

He seems like such a nice guy, like he just REALLY wants to show you all of his toys. Its kind of sweet in a way!

I can't even begin to stress how nice he is. I went to NAMM this year, and I brought my entire Nitro collection, almost two backpacks worth. He looked at me, said "Oh, you brought the mother-lode.". Then he signed everything I have. Took like 45 minutes, he was happy to do it, told me facts about things as he was signing, and other various Nitro stuff. To top it off, we took a bunch of pictures together. If you ever get to meet him, or see him play, DO IT.

i like the way he talks . he knows his shit man nice

The ending always makes me laugh!!! SEE YA!!!! lmao!

Was I the only one floored by a guy playing 2 saxophones at one time?! Man, imagine the lung power needed for that

he said nobody plays a guitar on a 90 degree angle compared to their body. He's wrong. Lil' Wayne does...

That is one impressive space. Why would you ever leave the house!

True musician to the core.. You see how his eyes light up like a kid in a candy store when hes looking at all his guitars.. Its awesome hes so nice and still has such a fire and passion for the art of it all!

I remember when I saw him in my hometown. I didn't get to talk to him, but I know that if I did he wouldn't be a jerk. MAB stood around for hours and talked to the people there. He's just a really nice guy and an amazing guitarist.

You've got to admire how well he treats his guitars, especially after seeing how Yngwie treats his.

MAB's new DVD "Speed Kills 2010" will be available on July 5th! This is a complete revision of the original classic program.

Love how enthusiastic he sounds when he talks about guitars, you can really hear how much he loves them.

no really, thats how michael angelo batio answers the door to anyone who knocks

that "SEE YA!!!" at the end is his way of saying " GET THE HELL OUT!!!!"

I have followed Mr Angelo since i first picked up a guitar in the late 80's and he always amazes me still! Hailz Batio!!!

Seen him at a guitar workshop some years back, he was awsome then and still is... Michael Angelo is Awsome !!! God Bless !

I still need the keys to the Ferrari...

Lmao he acts like a dad. Idk how to explain it. His appearance is all hard and metal but when he opens his mouth his like a church going boy scout.

A wonderful guy! I had the pleasure of touring withg him in Turkey and he was a joy to be around. A humble kind man who is such a great guitarist he would shock all the guys who thought they were good :) There is so much to learn from this great artist! I am one of his biggest fans. Reguards from Turkey your guitar brother Awesome John

I checked this video at least 40 times. I don't get rid of it. Michael is my shred idol

At least he looks after his guitars unlike malmsteen who uses his like tennis rackets

I wonder if he does that whenever someone comes to the door.. "Hi, I'm Michael Angelo Batio"

Great 👍 video Mike. Never saw this till today. Glad to see it he House again 🤘🎹

It's just cool to see someone so into his guitars like that; that Fender Mustang is gorgeous, u can tell he really looks after them all

-MAB:Hi im Michael Anhelo Batio and welcome to my studio \m/ -Pizza Guy: emm...

5:02- 5:06 Not Lil' Wayne..

He is so awesome! I met him and he is so cool and down to earth

I love that spalted maple V guitar. And the blueburst ML.

Michael Angelo Batio's Museum of Fine Guitars

Is that how he greets everyone who comes to his house? lol

Un vrai fou passionné!!! Ambidextre en plus!!! Magnifique collection !!!

Michael Angelo Batio= Legend

"Hi, I'm MAB, and I have more gear than you..."

0:07 Hi, I should have ditched this wig years ago. now then, 6:46 is the funniest thing i've seen on a youtube video, ever.

Cool tour! Thanks MAB and GW!

man...this guy is insane!!! nice guitar collection.

He seems like a nice guy. ... Until he has to practice, practice, and practice...

"No human plays a guitar perpendicular to their body....... Giraffes on the other hand..."

Man, dude seems like such a cool person. i'd so get a guitar lesson from him

been a fan since 1989. after 92 i didn't think he would ever get reconized. Glad he has new fans & several of his videos on here have had Millions of views. he should form a new Band.

i love the sign on his front door...nothing screams heavy metal like a cute little sign

I've watched all of the "In The Studio...." vids, and this one is my favorite. Don't know why.

IMO Mike is a real nice person, he deserves this and much more...keep rocking Michael!

I have had the same experience with MAB, i met him last year at a guitar clinic in my home town and he was awesome. I am gonna go see him again this year at the very same guitar store.

What's amazing is how nice this guy seems. I'd def. down a couple beers and jam in his studio with him any day!

Wow Michael that is awesome

Batio is such a nice guy. He kind of make you feel really special in a way.

HE is really proud of his studio and his music and that is a true Guitar musician ROCK ON

cool dude! awsome guitar collection !

I've had the pleasure and honour of meeting MAB when he came to Liverpool and did a performance there. Shook the dudes hand, and I have to say' he's one of the coolest and nicest guys out there. There's no Ego with this dude he's just pure talent. I'd encourage everyone to try and see him in concert at least once! :)

Michael won the Guitar World 15th annual readers choice award in the Best Shredder category beating Paul Gilbert, Herman Li, Buckethead and John 5. Check out the new April 2009 issue. All of the winners in other categories announced.

That's passion!!

Master !! Really cool dude ...

that may be but you still cant deny how awesome his collection of guitars is.

I love how he designed his own double neck guitar its dope asf ❤

I met him briefly at a clinic/showcase in a guitarshop about two years ago.He's a really nice guy,patient to talk to everyone.I was standing 5 feet from him.He emphasized a lot on his special picking technique,with the hand turned inwards,like a mandoline playing technique.

Michael's new CD "Hands Without Shadows 2 - Voices" will be available at the end of August 2009. Special guest guitarists on MABs new CD include - Mark Tremonti (Creed, Alter Bridge,) Vinnie Moore (UFO) and George Bellas (Solo Artist) plus a few more surprises.

I would love to spend a week with this guy and his studio :D

This man is under rated. Technical genius!!

God damn his collection is nuts.

Awesome!!

The device is called the "MAB String Dampener." Michael invented and improved it, based on an idea from George Van Eps and has a patent on it. The MAB String Dampener is great for tapping, cleans up your playing and is available at Michael's site.
