me too. I'm serious. Joe Pass level. plus he's not even 30 yet

Totally agree...in an era of some fantastic guitarists this guy is at the top of the list.

Way to early to call, but he is in that lane for sure

Matteo Mancuso is on this level

He's excellent. Check out Pasquale Grasso

@Kalel Johnathan nice fake conversation going on here

@Kane Zechariah Why would anyone want to hack anyones anything? Sounds disturbing.

Awsomely inspiring lessons ...... very beautiful.

i can too lmao

It died :(

He's the only guy who can remind one of Shawn Lane hehe

@@andrewkeen3129 I should’ve said modern day Joe Pass…

They surely are tuned well but that doesn't really help you write music. It's like looking at Lionel Messi and being jealous of the way he tied his laces lol

Wow, that is a cool perspective. I like to see things that way sometimes, too. I'm afraid that squandering this one will result in me being a cockroach or maybe a republican in the next life.

there’s some slight analog delay, and a compressor with very high attack, a good amount of reverb and humbuckers are essential

and a thick/smooth plectrum

@ Plus he uses the Benson style backwards pick slant

I wouldn't try and offer him any advice on his setup! He seems to be managing quite well with the guitar setup as it is!

@@bruceybonus7091 that’s a weird thing to say

@@tonywallens217 more weird to try and offer advice to a clearly talented musician

@@bruceybonus7091 Ah yes thats right, talented people are above advice.

@Rodrigo Fernandez Official yeah exactly so let’s let him decide. Just so everybody knows, I think this guy is absolutely amazing. I just wanted to pass on a piece of experience to a guitarist who could use it or not.

sure, but whos the next mancuso?

With just an accompanying nylon string it fills up the sound a little. I like it..

I kind of agree, it isn't necessary in my opinion. I think people add too much delay when they aren't fully confident in their playing - which is silly in this situation since he such a great player. But at the end of the day, it is a matter of choice. Not my thing though. A tiny bit of slap back sounds good, but when it competes with the played notes, it takes away from the playing IMO

I wasn't going to say anything about it, but.... Well, I think they know what they're doing, so I'll accept it.

I think he is trying to replicate the guitar sound of old Cumbia music. or maybe he wanted to sound like Khruangbin band.

I wouldn't say the slapback competes with the played notes at all - it's pretty obvious what's being picked. Shawn Lane had a very similar tone approach, it's just a fusion thing.

Thanks for the tips!

Define 'processed'

@@biscobisco1882 delay, reverb and compression...got that?

@@sixstring4 So completely standard effects for a typical fusion tone then? How is that 'heavy' processing when the vast majority of live electric guitarists would have those pedals in their board? FFS you make it sound like he's using a whammy pedal, octavers, or a guitar synth.

@@biscobisco1882 vast majority? It depends who you listen to. Where I come from when you play a jazz classics like this you don't drench your playing in effects, but to each his own...if you're impressed with fast riffing "fusion" playing good for you...not my cup of tea..I just hope he makes it out of Sydney and plays with notable artists.

Just the other day he released an official statement where he announced that he was ditching his father who taught him this craft and would replace him with tits and booty in all upcoming video performances 🤦‍♂️

This reminds me of the Animals As Leaders performance where they played while some hot ladies tried to dance seductively to them djenting the fuck out lol
