  • great guitar skills dude. you can really shred that thing

  • best cover ive seen

  • "I'm not claiming to be Jimi Hendrix or John Mayer, or anyone else. I'm Stu Gabriel and I just like this song"

    ...well said sir

  • anyway, you did a great job =)

  • little bit influenced by john mayer, maybe?

  • Very cool -- most excellent groove. Soulful singing to boot.

  • sweet tone, gotta get that Fernandes some day : )

  • You messed it up by trying to sing like that fag - John Mayer

  • this....

    so much feeling.

    this was good sir. very effin good.

    thank you!

  • john mayor

  • @Chumbbo mayer *

  • nailed it man! when I saw you didn't kick on any distortion for the solo I was completely amazed...

    and your singing was great, I can't imagine singing over something that complicated...

  • toca e canta pra caralho, tem futuro.

    

  • you sound like johny lang man. so sweet

  • holy shit your voice is awesome, nice guitar playing and nice cover

  • omg!!your voice is so amazing!!!

    john mayer's voice!!!

  • vafan är du svensk också? för bra...

  • LOL thought it was john mayers voice´! ._. great!

  • 2:48-2:51 gave me an orgasm

  • somebody buy this man a beer

  • Nice playing and no homo yu got a nice voiice too

    

  • The second you started singing I favorited. 

  • OMG Good Playin' and GREAT VOICE !!! For the first seconds i'didn't realize that you were singin'

  • wow, that was fucking amazing. i really love your voice bro, keep it up. if you ever get a better camera, i would love to see a redo of this song, just for the better quality :P

  • I love the way you attacked that one Stu and I can say with confidence that's as good as I've ever heard that one played. Thanks for sharing!

  • Good guitar player, Good voice.

  • dude, you were singing this? i thought it was JM xD i'm so impressed right now.

  • i hate you this was amazing!!!!!!!

  • Man, the only thing that is ruining everything is the quality, if you could do it with a better quality video and sound would be perfect, anyways keep it up, it still perfect, respect !

  • pretty asum!

  • Incredible!

  • man, your singing is pretty good indeed, and quite similar to this guy mayer, too!

  • Very fluid playing and nice voice ;)

  • Damn nice!!!

  • show your face brah. no need to be bashful when you can make a guitar moan like you can. sing up too. nice voice. just project.

  • The camera compression surprisingly adds such a punchy sound to his guitar! I love it! It just punches you in the face whenever he slap down with his pick..

  • you got soul, muthafuka

  • I just realised that YOU were singin !

  • Amazing ... really nice work, Man!

  • Hey Stu, I really enjoy your playing, you've got a lot of talent ;)

    I think it would be great if you upload a version of Under the Bridge by the Red Hot Chili peppers. There's a little bit of Jimi-Hendrix-influence in it =) I'm just proposing this because the song might suit your stlye and voice ;). Covered it myself on acoustic with a friend of mine ;)

  • your voice sounds almost like jonny lang...thats pretty sick. awesome playing too bro.

  • Best cover from Bold as love out there! SOOO much felling in it aahh great just great!

  • Man I am so jealous of your guitar and you skills lol! Nice playing!

  • great stuff, man!

  • great stuff, man! 

  • Dude, you must be great live.

  • you had some pretty sick licks in that mate well played

  • All that happend in 3:21 minutes?!?! :O

    YOU"RE AMAZING

  • The best cover of this song i've ever sawn !! great fuckin' job man !!! +5

  • fantastic

  • I had to change my pants after that lick at 0:51

  • It's the best cover of Bold As Love !!!!!!

  • dude you owned john mayer

    he doesn´t feel anything while he plays this song

    you did a great job

    even though we can´t see everything^^ i am sure that you are playing with feeling man

    that´sthe only way to really pay tribute to people like jimi hendrix SRV oder clapton... you need to feel their thoughts when they played it and bring in your own little bit of feeling^^

    if you play it like mayer you just loose the feeling

    he´s a good guitarist but he doesn´t play with the same feeling!

    great cover

  • WOW. I don't know what else to say. wow.

  • which pickup are you using here, bridge?

  • @exileskim09

    definitely the neck

  • I think chapie1987 is dead on. Doesnt matter what equipment you have, you need the right 'touch' to have a nice smooth sound. However, a fernades strat is far from crappy, although i prefer the older fernandes burny custom strats. and the peavey bandit has a pretty thick sound for a solid state amp if dialled in correctly. In fact, i'd choose a peavey bandit over some cheap tube amps to be honest. Very good for a solid state amp. Anyway, great skills Stu.

  • is that your voice?? amazing! either way, sooo beautiful!

  • I have watched many covers of this song because it's one of my all time favorites and i can honestly tell you this is the best cover I have ever watched. Your percision, tone, speed, EVERYTHING was amazing! EVEN YOUR VOICE was amazing! I'm just in awe. Thank you for an incredible 3 minutes of music. You sound similar to john mayer but with out the annoying factor and the exageration. honestly incredible. far better then mayer and even rivals hendrix. Go get discovered

  • Freakin' nice cover man. Really, you're good.

  • awesome. simple as. awesome.

  • shit bruv, your good, can i get the tabs?

  • wow

  • you're fuckin good, i love it

  • dude, didn't realise you were singing until about half way through. I was gonna say your guitar chops are f***ing impressive but your voice rocks too! Keep it up!

  • Nicely played Stu

  • Very nice !

  • dude, nice playing, but you should really listen to Hendrix and not John Mayer. Mayer is no where near the musician Hendrix was and his versions of Jimi's songs are very weak.

  • @bubbabubbabooba Jimi once said he wanted everyone to cover his songs in their own way. I'm not a fan of mayer but i give him props for doing jimi's songs in his own way. And your right , they are nowhere near each other as musicians , because they were two different ppl with different influences and completely different styles. Any cover version of jimi's songs are great when they put their own feel into it. Feeling is what makes music. And nice cover stu i liked it.

  • @bubbabubbabooba dude, come on...to say Mayer is no where near the musician as Hendrix is just ridiculous. Hendrix was a god, but Mayer is a damn good guitarist and there is no doubting that.

  • oh i'm pretty 'sensitive' when it comes to listening to a crappy rendition of a song by a guitar hero! on the other hand though, this is very very good indeed... so no worries there.. very well played.. and i suppose as a point to the contributor who would describe the fernandes as unimpressive, they clearly haven't played one! play it as you do and it clearly sounds brilliant, so perhaps that was the point.. great stuff mate..

  • Amazing! And your voice is great too! Ur awesome dude!

  • excellent dude!

  • where did you get tabs?

  • Just fuckin excelent man just fuckin excelent 5 stars this is a great cover thumbs up and a kudos to you bro.

  • fantastic work! but get a better mic, so we hear your voice. From the sounds of it...its a good one.

  • great.

  • Great gear, great cover, get a new camera.

  • really good

  • you have a great voice and you made that song all your own nice !

  • no he didn't... he got it from John mayer but still it is very good...

    nice cover man! Rock on!

  • @ eNikoltsios

    wow there chief, by "all your own" i meant he took it and added his own style, i know it's by jimi fool

  • wow!! excelent!!!! muy buena ejecucion!!! me encanto!! tienes la tablatura???

  • You make me sick man haha I want to be able to play this song so badly and I just am not quite good enough to do so. You on the other hand ripped it to pieces!!! Great cover! do you jus improvise on alot of the hammeor ons? Or did you read a tab ??

  • Hey, thanks!

    I never read tabs. This is totally improvised over the chord changes.

  • hey, your a very good guitar player, this cover is amazing, u also have great voice! I was just wondering, when you improvise over the chord changes, do you use the major scale for each chord or do you use like a pentatonic, or like one certain scale or what do you use for it? sorry if the question is kinda stupid, i just wanted to jam to the song and just wondering what you do. thanks 5/5 stars

  • @swedenstu And is trully the Jimi Hendrix way :)

  • @swedenstu this crushes my dreams of being a rock star. good on ya man. you have serious talent and a lot of natural music in ya

  • @swedenstu tutorial? maybe? if we are really really really lucky? ksorrynevermindisaidnothing...­......

    dude you play it awsomely and it would be a great gift to those of us who dont have a guitar teacher at the present moment (hint hint) , and youre the best version of the song on youtube as far as ive seen.

  • CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP

  • like your change between part one and two

  • incredible... gorgeous...brilliant...

    Congratulation !!!!! 5 stars :)

  • musicians at their finest

  • you live the song...soo much emotion in your voice

  • FANTASTIC!

  • Freakin awesome!!! Love your voice and the guitar was sick too. Awesome.

  • Excellent job man. The fact that you are singing as well makes it even a better video.

  • Wait a second-are you singing too? Damn.

  • Bravissimo!!!!!

  • I'm gonna be honest, that was fucking good

  • I like this song too :)

  • good cover but should have done jimi version better

  • please do a lesson!

  • your awesome dude

  • totally awesome man, i really like it. Keep it up!

  • dude do you live with a metronome or something? very nice, got a lotta soul

  • you're good!

  • is that you singing? jesus christ your so good! guitar was freaking awesome. i dont know how you can pull that off while playing the guitar like that

  • Wow dude... I agree with all the others. You really are just as good, if not better, than Mayer. A lesson with some basics for the song would be much much much appreciated.

  • Holy shit, you could stand your ground against Mayer doing this song, both vocally and on the guitar. Consider me impressed.

  • well done mate

  • are you from sweden/ är du från sverige?

    skitbra spelande isåfall. go röst också!

  • jesus, that's fuckin good dude. sounds rather mayerish, vocally anyway. sick chops, keep doing whatever you're doing, cause it's working.

  • Sounds fantastic! Good job!

  • good dude

  • fucking good

  • great! the sound is not very good but you play very well !!

  • tearin it up... wow

  • Your great and you do actually sound like mayer. Awesome!

  • Comment removed

  • this is really awesome! and I love your tone :D

  • i would love it if u told me what guitar that is

  • he does read the discreption

  • i don't want to discourage people looking for the tone, but i think it's mostly stu...and not the equipment. a japanese fernandes strat + a peavy bandit 112 isn't an impressive kit..(no offense). His skills on the guitar however....very impressive.

    I got a crappy strat too, and when i play it, it sounds like crap, when a friend of a friend dropped by.....by strat made sounds i never knew it could make.

    i say, invest your time and money in lessons first, then equipment

    btw great job stu!

  • @chapie1987 that is absolutely right^^ it´s not (just) the equpment

    of course having a chorus overdrive and wah-wah enables you to get closer to the sound of little wing vodoo-chile or bold as love but it doesn´t ,ake you hendrix^^

    practice and watch the masters online and try to learn from then

    don´t try to copy them 1 on 1 though... that is too hard to do

    and it isn´t the right way to pay your respects...

  • very well done mate... im wanting to learn this song but havnt found the time to sit down and put time into it

  • you're Fender has an amazing sound, what model is it? very nice cover by the way

  • Thanks! I'm playing a Japanese 90's Fernandes Stratocaster, that I've owned since the age of 14, through a Peavey Bandit 112 Transtube series amp, clean channel with a little reverb.

  • Comment removed

  • I didn't even consider buying a Japanese made, it's so hard finding the right fender for a good price, I'll check this one out though : )

  • sweet tone

  • how'd you get the tone for this?

  • I'm playing a Japanese 90's Fernandes Stratocaster, that I've owned since the age of 14, through a Peavey Bandit 112 Transtube series amp, clean channel with a little reverb.

  • dude cool im 14 and thats the guitar im getting for christmas! thanks by the way

  • I'm gonna be stealin licks from this all day, thanks bro

  • youre awsome man!

  • Hade varit kul med en cover på Wait Until Tomorrow, helst John Mayer's :)

    Grymt förresten!

  • Great tone mate. What amp is that going through?

    You using heavy gauge strings?

  • That is just wicked! Great job.

  • I know your singing is great, but your guitar playing is out of this world.

  • are you signing! your sooo good

  • "just Stu" was pretty good..keep it going...and the point is... jimi is jimi, john is something in between with a bit excess honey on top... you are yourself... thats how things are expected to be..no more no less... so, enjoy...thats the fucking point..isnt it?..

  • Im pretty sure i just shat myself.

  • MAN youre good!

  • great covers (this and the other ones)! out of curiosity -- do you use a pick, or just pluck with your fingers (i can't make it out in this video)?

    thanks,

    - boris

  • Thanks! I use both, and I often "hide" a pick in my right hand and switch back and forth between it while playing, depending on the type of sound I want.

  • hey outstanding job i know how tough it is for difficult rhythm and singing at once check out my page i'm spankykirky just wondering where u learned this song any tabs available out there?

  • niceeeeeee

  • I loved this video, you've got a great voice man, I also wish I could play guitar like you!

  • a-w-e-s-o-m-e bravo!

  • ok one question... how long have you been playing the guitar?!?! your amazing! :O

    iv'e been playing it 10 years... and im not good like you! i can feel the passion you put in your guitar and all the hard work to!

  • You probobly don´t have the time, but I and many others would be very thankfull if you could post a video of you playing some of those awsome licks a bit slower?

  • Really really great job! The best one on youtube by far

  • very nice 5/5, if u play it half step down, ur voice will be better

  • sorry u are playing it half step down, my bad

  • god playing. but nobody really likes jon mayer's voice. they only think they do because theyve watched american idol one too many seasons. wouldve liked to hear a more soulful example of hat.

  • maybe u just dont like john mayers singing and everyone else does...and ur just being a wanker

  • did you get this playing from the LA show? nice man ... how did you get this fat tone on guitar?

  • I got this playing from listening to Hendrix' and Mayer's versions (the one off Continuum) and then mixing them up in my head with some soul of my own. The guitar tone is just a Fernandes strat through a Peavey Bandit 112 transtube series amp, straight up, clean channel.

  • You are godly on guitar and you sing great. How are you not famous??

  • whoa :)

  • John Mayer ? it's Sound Like John Mayer with your Great Voice =)

    Your Version is The Best (For Me). See My Version (I Would Like your Opinion Pleas). Thanks, 5 Stars !

  • Very good my man, well done

  • Good voice but never...ever

  • yeah lol

  • un fuckin real. best video i will ever see of this song. period.

  • GREAT COVER!!!

    really good guitar tone

  • oh dude, you are good! :D like john mayer!

  • From a super-avid Hendrix fan, no disclaimer needed. Great cover : ).

  • Great job, thats hard to do, some people have no idea. I can play a reasonable version of the tune, and can sing it, but not together to much going on for my damaged brain to deal with. That was super, your very talented.

  • yo man good job on the song its one of my favorites : )

  • just wanted to say.. youre amazing.. guitar.. both electric and acoustic skills.. and a soulful voice..

    i hope you make it to NYC

  • Absolutely amazing.

  • i think this is the best video ive seen for the guitar AND the vocals together. awesome job man.

  • Awesome! Great cover, great playing and singing :-)

  • nice man !

  • Nice playing, really like your solo improv, you made it your own!

  • This is really beautiful!. You are quite the guitarist. No need to be shy. This song is unb-f.. lievably gorgeous!

  • What pickup? Neck?
