I want to say Romeo since I enjoy his music more but they are both top tier guitarists.

Guthrie" the profesor" Govan...👍👍👍💯💯💯

The best explanation of picking I've heard in 34 years

00:12 to 00:17 Second is wild

His acting was on point

Both guitar monsters! But I prefer Guthrie Govan...

Ywgwie doesn’t ever practice, he just grabs a guitar then hits record, & confidently steps up to the plate ready to go & composes in real time by preforming long form recitals to impress himself, & the hottest parts later get condensed into songs created by confidently cutting & remixing things up fresh, in the moment & resending it back out hot as possibly, by playing focused at the height of his very best technical guitar abilities, to fuse hard rock to long form classical music type progressions, very likely in a manner similar to the approach to the creation of Miles Davis’s quintessential jazz rock fusion album, Bitches Brew. The sessions of which got created over the period of over three days & nights, of constant jamming where all the various virtuoso musicians were all locked together into the studio to catch what came out during an endless marathon recording session, where the musicians likely took drugs, bathroom breaks & meals, in the studio until they separately got exhausted & took random naps on cots in the studio, in cycles & when they woke up, they got right back to the endless jamming, hopping back into the mix like jump rope, not knowing if it was even day or night, after which all the hottest parts & takes got chopped up, rearranged & boiled down by a composer into a hour & half long album and presented back to the band to forever play in this freshly rearranged new reformulation. In the spirit in this type manner of improvisation Ywgwie doesn’t ever really practice per say, he just spreads his wings levitates and goes for broke, hit or miss, reaching for the highest levels he can achieve while playing for up to 10 hours a day to stay ready by exclusively working to focus on sending it out fresher & hotter by always reaching for the best possible resolutions to progressions through exclusively improvising, intending to step it up continuously, he doesn’t really practice in the regular sense he only intends to swing for the fences by preforming confidently to either hit a grand slam knocking it out the park or end up in a spectacular train wreck & brings it all out evermore increasingly, playing only in the moment to impress himself, in keeping ready to take over when it really counts, in the spotlight at the biggest shows, in a similar manner to the way the MVP basketball player Allen Iverson infamously & derisively referred to Practice?…Practice!…We’re talking about practice?…LoL…🎸🍩

played the devils guitar player an in your face guitar player. perfect casting.

yeah but that 7 min is iconic. will last forever. best of both worlds.

Wow!

I don't think the rest of the band can play that fast . Very jazz sounding. But very fast

This dude makes me feel like cant even claim to be a guitarist.

I say Michael Romeo all day. I find his music more interesting and less discordant. Shaun Lane is amazing but I'd rather listen to Michael Romeo doing some sweet neo classical over some good rhythms. If you're a Jazz fan you probably appreciate Lane more.

O baby

Enter Tim Henson for the 2020’s….

GG, I allow it !

This is boring af. I get he has skill and knowledge of scales. But this type of sound gets old fast.

This type of playing is technical.And it often lack,s feel.Because it,s played at speed.Wanna hear guthrie play with feeling.Check out the solo at the end of drive home steven wilson.He is using an ebow.

my biggest inspiration on guitar talking about my biggest inspiration on guitar

Max 👍👍👍

やっぱりガスリーが最高や

"whilst" this man is fancy as nobody else 🍷

If adhd was a person

Malmsteen sounds like a collection of etudes for me. Lane is something else altogether. He's in his own orbit.

The interviewer sounds like a Sim

The interviewer sounds like a Sim

Guitar wankery, it sounds like a cat being strangled.

Can't compare them, two different styles and each is a maestro on their separate techniques... Well Unfortunately Shawn was... RIP 🙏

Love mm but jaco wins every time

Bruh!!!

So cool. Love that 32nd

❤❤❤❤❤❤

WTF are you talking over it ****head?

I learned more about right hand picking technique from one short Guthrie video than I did in my 20 years of playing guitar :D

Not only good at Guitar but he's speaking like a real Wise Man, Philosopher

No...switching around like that and catching weird notes that don't fit...very cool to anyone who doesn't play but it sounds like 100 mph garbage truck

He has Blessing of Ma Taangi

Charango hero 😂😂😂

I’ve never realized how similar their hands are until this video. Two of the very finest players of their respective styles

Make up preoccupations 😂

Allan holdsworth for me. But I like both Lane and Romeo. Symphony X is bad ass.

It's crazy how everyone hates on yngwie until Guthrie says "he's legit" and now all of the sudden everyone in this comment section actually recognizes yngwie as the player he is. Come on now.

Los Pollos T shirts!

With their own style each, they are equally great.

EL MEJOR DOMINIO DEL INSTRUMENTO QUE HE VISTO LO TIENE ESTE MAESTRO, DONDE PONE LOS DEDOS SUENA BIEN.

The secret is on his face.

❤

Buena lección 👌

Bro just pulled it out of his ass like tf? Lmfao

yngwie is in the stratosphere while shawn is in outer space.
