Miyavi Solo Guitar

[knockbarbiedown]

DAMN

[TheFirstWalkage]

and I don't know why, but i really think that click he does at 0:38 really steals the show XD

[TheFirstWalkage]

This video has been flagged...due to, too many faces being melted :D

[FOWBOWZ]

He is totally good at guitar. But there is most definitely people better than him. Like Hide, and BB King, Sugizo and others that are his inspirations/influences. I mean, who else would have inspired/influenced him other than a better guitar player? Plus, Miyavi's a better screamer than singer. I like his voice though. :P

Plus, he plays drums, piano and shamisen too, livedandletdie.

[HeavyMetalMarauder]

This guy is undoubtably great. But don't act like there has NEVER been anyone better than him *Cough Yngwie*. But still, great guitarist.

[HannibalxStarling]

Once I tried to play the guitar like him. I lost three fingers and my left hand.

[Itapalas]

ummmm.....very posser ....is like Andy Mckee with more adrenalin and more glam....i dont like at all the possers ,

[Liz13751]

i <3 it to see and hear him playin guitar *_*

[Kaneuchiha666]

The guitars love him..he makes every and each of one of the come!

[mo0nfull]

it is a slap! great!! miyavi sensei !!!

[danse1111]

i'm a big big fan , i'm a girl, i'm not and i hate fangirls!! ithink miyavi is talentful and i love his music, the way he plays guitar etc... stupid fangirls saying "aaahah i luuuuv hiim hes so seexxxyyyyy =*O*= " ...

[DANGILBERT03]

how the fuck does that crecendos with harmonics while he is slapping!?!?!?!?!

[GoriNapalm]

slap master

[DynamoDisaster]

Im surprised that guitar didnt catch fire while he shredded it to pieces ... he must go through strings like ... my obese cat goes through cat food o_O... That was beyond impressive ...

[gduran27]

He has energy though that's why he's so good cus he puts energy out there

[MegaHotDiggityDog]

introduction to "selfish love" instrumental - "Jikoai, Jigajisan, Jiishiki Kajou"

[chris59937]

2hrs ago i didnt even no this guy...now all i can watch is this guy! best guitarist in worl by long shot! never misses a beat and puts on one hell of a entertaining show!

[MaetelUsagi]

..... awe inspired....

[Sandbreaker49]

This guy i tell u genius, this is by far my fav guitar solo his frankly bloody brilliant ; weather hes singing or not he is truly one great artist. It sucks tho lol hes only in japan im a bit jealous but he knows the meaning of being a tru artist. TRU ARTIST CHANGES THERE STYLE AND DOES ALMOST EVERYTHING.

[gtrndkbldgod]

.....HOLY FUCK!!!! Fucking asians, what cant they do???

[ellethmelwasul]

3 pple are jealous!

[irvingkokoro]

Well I'm pretty damn sure Miyavi-San listens to a lot of Mexican music, or at the very least, he listens to a lot from "Rodrigo y Gabriela". And I'm NOT fooling around.

[NaweeL91]

OH.MY.GOD

Le Dieu de la guitare *o*

[absoltrainer]

He should be up there with the greats... thats some skillful playing.

[SokkaErBest]

noooooooose, 3 folks hit the wrong button D: shame on them!

[lamCookie]

2 ppl missed the like button!:D

[zuruxkakyn]

unsynced

[WIDDA93]

wow echt hammer!

[BartiderWaldschrat]

holy crap......

[HoodedSword]

Awesome. I don't care for what he wears or what he looks like, he's an amazing guitarist. Kinda sucks; I've only discovered him recently (being a Westerner...), but it seems like most of his fans are fangirls who don't appreciate his talent.

[smellsgood9]

@HoodedSword I couldn't agree with you more. He has more talent than a lot of the Guitar players know here in the states.

[TheDox1990]

this guy is garbage

[livedandletdie]

Ok at age 17 known as one of japans biggest guitarists.

He is a guy.

And I believe you\re a fool if you think someone is actually better than him.

He is a good singer.

He is multi-talented: Guitar skills singing hot and cute.

[690169]

@livedandletdie

You're a fool if you think anyones better than him...really?

What about Buckethead,Steve Vai, Tim Reynolds,Eddie Van Halen,Jeff Beck,Brian May,Joe Satirani,Dickey Betts,Paul Gilbert,Synyster Gates,Dimebag Derrell,Zack Wylde,Adrian Smith plus alot more...I think Miyavi is a fantastic guitarist but I also think your comment was a blanket statement....

[burgani]

@690169 You forgot, Luca Turilli xD

[bigbuba16]

@livedandletdie you do know steve via right? this is all slapping slidding and finger picking its easy as long as you can keep the speed up.

[friki092]

@bigbuba16

dude that's like saying that any guitar song/solo is just pressing strings, doing bends, etc so it's easy as long as you can keep the speed up. The problem is..... that is the hard part

[ldog1991]

@bigbuba16 to be fair, everything is easy as long as you can keep the speed up. this requires more than good alternate picking technique (tapping, sweeping and whammy bar molesting)

[q28s1]

@livedandletdie Totally agree. Just except the part about people being foolish. I know people that can play that type of stuff easily and at the same time being able to do neo-classical shreds. The world of guitar is much wider than what you see on Youtube and the music you can download from the internet. Some people don't want to be famous and some people are just to big of dicks people don't want to help them become famous. To many variables to make a claim like that dude.

[SleepyFroggy]

@livedandletdie He's not that good, and his singing sounds liek he needs a losinge

[Paulienhoudtvanroze]

@SleepyFroggy Have you seen him live? HE'S AMAZING!

[SleepyFroggy]

@Paulienhoudtvanroze Nope

[Paulienhoudtvanroze]

@SleepyFroggy That's it! If I'm honest, I didn't really like him in the beginning, but since I've seen him, I'm a huge fan and I can't wait to see him again! So just go see him live!

[SleepyFroggy]

@Paulienhoudtvanroze Nah I'm not really into his music.

You should go see him though.

[Paulienhoudtvanroze]

@SleepyFroggy I can't wait 'till he comes again! (:

[FearOwnsReason]

@SleepyFroggy I think you should listen -more- of his songs...

I discovered him a few days ago and I am just more and more impressed. It's not only about his epic skills.

I'm a fan of Metal, Rock and Punk and this guy just got much more to offer than those types of music united.

He is what a "rock" star should be: talented, devoted and charismatic.

And you'll understand his singing is way more than acceptable once you listen to more songs.

If I had to be an artist, I'd like to be Miyavi.

[SleepyFroggy]

@FearOwnsReason I didnt say it was bad he cant sing... It's just annoying that everyone thinks someone is the best at singing and guitar, when I've seen way better busking in the london underground.

I like his first album, and mama papa whatever

[FearOwnsReason]

@SleepyFroggy yeah I got it, but since I never witnessed a 'better' guitarist, to me this guy is the best, overall.

Let's not forget we're speaking about Art, which necessarily implies personal preferences, unlike science. ^_^

I just think Miyavi's popularity isn't proportional to his talent. More ppl should know HIS NAME. ;)

Peace!

[CarmineTree]

@FearOwnsReason

Since you never witnessed a better guitarist? Girl, you have YT, you can download music, you dont need to see the guitarist live, you just need to listen and modern technology is giving you that, so this is poor excuse. If you knew only one guitarist, he would be the god of guitar for you even if his playing was terrible... Do you see how stupid is your logic? You sound just like fangirl, very close minded one, I have to add.

[TheDeathOfChaos]

@livedandletdie If you add 'hot and cute' to that, it just makes you sound like one of the fangirls that like him because of how he looks and all that crap. Please, if you want some people to take you seriously, keep that part out because it makes you sound shallow.

[ThisSubtleDagger]

@livedandletdie Nothing against Miyavi, but I bet Gabriela would give him a run for his money. Not Rodigo AND gabriela, but just gabriela since she's the one that does all the slapping.

[ThisSubtleDagger]

@ThisSubtleDagger Well it won't let me comment with a link to the video, but they are called Rodrigo y Gabriela and the best song to show you would be "Tamacun"

[TheMetalpride]

pfff bad ....that is just a kid

[TheMetalpride]

like i said he is not a guitar master ... joe satriani kick her ass

[hairymacho]

*His

[r4sh89]

can i hate him?? xDDD  aaaaa damn it if only i had 1/10 of his skillss!!!!! xD

[nagato9009]

[CrissAngelFreakAss]

Me and my friends just looooooooooooooooooooooooove miyavi. But his very hyper and thats cool. I gotta say that everybody who thinks that miyavi is gay beacuse hes wearing girl glothes are wrong. Beacuse hes just wearing them to show that he is brave. MIYAVI IS THE BEST YAY!!!!!

[JeffBuckleyFanHalle]
