Hi, Gus G from Firewind here. On this video I'm hanging with legendary Queensrÿche guitarist Michael Wilton backstage during our joint European tour in November 2019. We talk guitars, gear, licks and more. Many thanks to Todd La Torre for helping me film this using his GoPro cams.

I got to do security for Ryche back in 2000 in Phx, AZ. I got to hang a bit w/ Michael and Kelly which was really cool, but at the end of the show there was like this crazy little mini riot, fans stormed the stage and someone took off w/ Michaels Les Paul. I managed to chase him down, and get it back and bring it back to Michael. Michael was so pissed but when he got his LP back he was really cool w/ me. I didn't ask for anything but he brought me a bunch of autographed swag before they loaded up and left. But Michael was very cool that entire night and I got to stand on the side of the stage the entire show, it was killer.

Gus has been one of my favorite guitarists since his early days in Firewind! When I heard he was going to play for Ozzy, I knew he would do a real badass job and he did! I got to see Queensryche last year. I was close to the stage right in front of Michael. I was the fat guy spilling my beer as I sang along to Eyes of a Stranger

Todd, Can't wait to see you guys in St Louis on February 9th. I've seen Queensryche 13 times but only once with you singing and that was on the Scorpions tour. Can't wait 👍 Joe

Hey Todd, love what you and the band are doing. I've seen Queensryche 41 times across 6 different states but have only seen you 1 time vocally with the band in Corpus Christi, Tx a few years back with Michael Schenker, Dokken and Accept. What a great event that was, Anyway, thank you for bringing the life and sound of my favorite band together once again, hope to see you in San Antonio soon!

Nice video! Don't know much about Gus and his musical adventures but I love Queensryche and Michael's playing. Always have, always will.

Michael Wilton has been around long enough to be able to sound like Michael Wilton no matter what he's playing through or on. His sound is in his fingers. What's that neck pickup? I don't know just something they threw in there. Awesome! I like he has been true to ESP guitars all these years.

Seeing a pro guitar player learn a song from scratch is very humbling.

@Tatted-ne7tu 4 жыл бұрын

I dig this. Hey cool to see two world famous players just hangin. Very cool to watch Gus learn a riff like the rest of us. My suggestions for the next one is maybe at some point put the gear used up on the screen. And if this thing takes off and goes big time maybe a quick little intro about the guest and his works. Good luck Gus and yes this is a great idea.

Was surprised to see Gus playing through a Blackstar Fly. But then again they're superb. I got mine (I got the stereo pack) as sadly my local music shop was closing and bought it on a whim in their clearance sale. It the only amp I use at home now.

Great informative video! So Michael uses the Kemper with profiles of Roland JC 120 for clean sounds and Bogner Fish for dirty sounds. I think everything goes from a Seymour Duncan Distortion pickup (cleans, too) because this single coil is only a sustainiac, I believe. The body guitar is alder. What counts the most that cannot be bought are the WHIP's fingers ;-)
