Betcha Can't Play This with Andy Timmons #4

[zzrock7]

pickup selector on an esquire?

[JJStuffEngineering]

hey folks,he just said.

"so its like"-> blluplbppbupbpuppuulp

really simple!

[MetallSonata]

actually my favorite part is the ending lick at 1:14

[meima17]

Who the fuck is Betcha?

[TonyMistry]

Fart at 2:08 :)

[slashgnrvr92]

Andy and Doug , definitely are the best of betcha can play this, besides Chris Broderick, and can not be denied

[poshjarker]

1:17!

[peccoz]

never EVER heard something like this. 8 |

[save12ed]

Anybody else watch these things, not to learn how to play them, but to just stare open mouthed at the awesomeness?

[BarriosGroupie]

See, this is great guitar playing when you can create a unique riff that isn't played by everyone else including your f***ing granddad.

[ak47s762]

This guy is awasome!



[wintersdead]

wow that is the worst lick ive ever heard this guy sucks what were they thinking when they got this guy to do this video geez

[SweetAmericanMustard]

@wintersdead You're a massively ignorant cunt, Andy Timmons is awesome, just 'cause he's not playing 2 million notes a second doesn't mean it's shit. Open your mind.

[GibsonTick]

@wintersdead "Andy Timmons sucks"? Have you ever played guitar in your life? Andy is one of the best around!

[krazeraiderfan]

@GibsonTick I couldn't agree more. Anybody that says he sucks probably has never played a guitar in their life. Andy is one of the best guitar players I have ever seen in my life. And I have been fortunate enough to see him perform a clinic with only like 40 people. I was amazed at his skills. I had never heard of him before that night, but when I left he was instantly one of my favorite guitarist period.

[eddieisfiction]

@wintersdead try searching for your dragonforce vids then douche.

[datizhehui]

i know, that's not a shitty shedding like most of this guys, but.... what the fuck was this shit?

[blasbembi]

so noob



[Blargaha]

@believer06

No, the shape is also called telecaster.... Therefore it is correct to say that it's a nice tele

[TheSonsofHorusx]

nice tele it looks like the one that they guy in The Zazen Boys uses =D

[believer06]

@TheSonsofHorusx It's an Esquire, not Telecaster. Tele has 2 pickups. Esquire has 1.

[ArseLoad0fMetal666]

this lick would be a ton easier with a shit load of overdrive, delay, phaser and a load of other bollocks.....quee entry of other betcha videos :)

[Nautilus1972]

They should rename these "You can definitely play these"

Unless Joe Satriani is doing it ...

[IbanezGuytfmz]

That's a Fender, not a Squire....

Sorry if it was Squier (not Squire), I'm still not sure

[TrueVideo]

This is the best Betcha Can't Play This to date. All the other stuff is just fast.

[SDJrekoff]

crkni usavrsavajuci to.

[toontownmaster124]

damn!



[BleedingLlama]

WHAT THE FUCK!?

Was that even.... what the fuck?

How the fuck do you do that? :|

[BrixIlBarbone]

it seems very nice, too!

[BackToZion2012]

Horrible guitar for a horrible playing

[1madaboutguitar]

Original 

[hickization]

1:16

best lick everrr!!

[reviewsnake]

you can find the non metal ones if they are using fenders or gibsons

[infernalhammer]

That Esquire sounds PHAT!!

[xPurpleDrinkx9001]

who the fuck cant play that?

[philm00r]

@xPurpleDrinkx9001 I'm going to go out on a limb here and say ... you.

[xPurpleDrinkx9001]

@philm00r Oh hai baseless argument number 9.

[Piecakesman]

@xPurpleDrinkx9001 但反對並列的時間原則是有缺陷

笨

[Thousandyearsofchaos]

tryin this hard!!

[erikviking]

Strawberry letter 23 is what its called and originally by Shuggie Otis Andy ; )

[HastOsth]

I freaking love that sound!

[deuce763]

I bow down to you, sir.

[Anitrop]

Why does an Esquier with only one pickup have a pickups selector lever?

[fuzzymuffPI]

@Anitrop brige position disable tone control, middle enables it, and front position darkens the pickup

[UnforgivenHD]

WTF

[prestonater]

yup, I literally have no chance of playing that.

[soccermetallica101]

AAAAAAANNNNNDDDDDYYYYYY!!!!!

[iamthe7thwalrus]

i can play this when im 80 and have parkinsons

[LogicalTaste]

Isn't it following A to B to G back to A?

[06shinoaburame]

@LogicalTaste No he is playing those power chords on the A and D strings not E and A

[LogicalTaste]

@06shinoaburame ahh strings,.. not Chords... gotcha

[LogicalTaste]

YES!!!! Been wanting to learn this!!!!! Thanks Andy!

[Ningirsutyr]

His palm muting technique requires some exercise, not as easy as it seems to play this lick exactly like he does..

[guitarfreaky1996]

... well does he always play the same thing?

[GrantGuides]

HE ALWAYS DOES THE SAME THING LOL!! And yeah I'm pretty sure I could play that. Sounds like shit anyway.

[zagarmonster]

@GrantGuides

chutiya !

[AniodD]

Thumbs up if this is the first time you saw an ''Betcha can't play this'' video without a metal style lick.

[0ConfrontTheCarnage0]

@AniodD look up "betcha can't play this with joe haley"

[nirvanachewbaccabean]

the hillbilly riff

[REMLostmyreligion]

Am I the only one who understood: "Hit it with a dish" @0:07?

Amazing playing though, sounds like a lot of fun (although I play bass ;))

[danukenator123]

@REMLostmyreligion He said "Headed for the Ditch." Its a song of his.

[tongbei1]

@TheSt0rm14 Single Coil in the bridge (Fender Esquire). His picking hand covers it mostly, but it's there :)

[hatekillripstab671]

comparing apples to oranges is like comparing cello players to guitarists, comparing two different genr guitarists is like comparing two different types of apples

[fefaaa21]

@hatekillripstab671 nothing beats a perfect granny smith ;) <3

[mifski]

just about played resolution to death!! need new solo stuff andy??

[AndrySijabat]

andy timmonssss....love u...damn ure soo good at playing guitar...

[eukicos]

GOD

[saltorock]

Andy is KING

[n3ko94]

que kapo!

[price1701a]

Strawberry Letter 23

[1010vladi]

I cant believe such a great guitarist is so underratted =\

[HurricaneTBag]

He's like Eric Johnson meets Chet Atkins.

[peniosasdasd]

Andy is the most down to earth guitar player in the world.

He makes Satch look like a cocky jerk.

[Dimebag08RIP]

@peniosasdasd Satch is a cocky jerk lol.

[danukenator123]

@Dimebag08RIP You've met him? And had extended contact to base that judgement on something?

[kiwi5slayer]

Easier than Rock band

[cordanscedo]

Timmons=tasty chops and great tone! Super nice guy too

[MrMethadrine]

what a commercial face...his smile makes me wanna buy a telecaster with same crappy colour...with fries.

[PhilosopherOnWeed]

@MrMethadrine LOL...yeah I know what you mean :P. He prolly has a job as a guy from Tell Sell as well, but he is a great guitarplayer though.

[shinybald36]

sweet lick

[ImperialArmour]

I like that hair.

[umbra88]

i dont get it is he alternate picking two strings two string one and then two again?

[Cristhyano86]

Meet him here in Brazil. Awesome humble man and my favourite guitarist of all time.

[Ironsixx]

the question is.... do i really want to play that?

[deapwavelio]

@Ironsixx Who cares what you want to play?

[Ironsixx]

@deapwavelio who gives a shit about your little "trying to make a guitar part" video? huh? WHO THE FUCKS GONNA WATCH THAT!?

[deapwavelio]

@Ironsixx The guy I´m working with, retard. Your just a looser whos jealous about Andy Timmos.

[ConspireToConspire]

he seems like that really nice guy you run into somewhere and then find out way later that he happens to melt faces with his guitar.

[Fabbe87]

Ugliest guitar ever

[sydtull]

And that's a country lick not bluesy

[sydtull]

It's strawberry letter #23

[buzzard22]

This is great!!! ... Who would give this a thumbs down??? WTF?

[GTASAmovies1]

Andy Timmons is one of the most underrated guitarists alive

[soren650]

@GTASAmovies1 who underrates him?

[SERLITZ]

@GTASAmovies1 I agree so much!

[JoshFazzz]

@GTASAmovies1 Not necessarily underrated. Just not as known

[lucas59695]

@GTASAmovies1 I'm gonna have to agree because I've never heard of him

[verbotenco]

@GTASAmovies1 He's underrated cause he's just alright.

[MrUsedBooks]

@verbotenco He is actually very good.

[MarcoPolansky]

@verbotenco I don't think a player who's just "alright" could play Groove or Die for example. Andy Timmons CREATED it.

Not to mention playing isn't just about speed, accuracy and cool effects.. You're just too ignorant on the matter, maybe you should listen to some of his stuff, he is actually one of the best guitarists out there. Great feel and technique, plus he's very creative and talented.

[verbotenco]

@MarcoPolansky I have the "This is Then, That was Now" album. He's good but never does leave noticeable after effect in my mind, not extraordinary enough to make a difference, you know what I mean. Contrast him with Greg Howe, Alan Holdsworth, or Steve Vai. 

[HendrixSRVClapton]

that riff in the end sounds like soap on a roap by Chickenfoot ;p

Yeah Andy is a very cool guy any time you meat him.

[nbl23]

now how did he do that bit from 2.11 onwards... where the lesson for that? :)

[ElvisRocks99]

now thats amazing

[narutoguy56]

Its actually a pretty cool lick if u think about it.

[enforcer4444]

It is nice to see one of those shredder guys do something cool and show you how to do it.

[steviedashfoo]

you have to hear this song to get this lick. it's a sick song. very musical.

[thepatriots1592]

It really is a shame how little respect Andy gets. He's a fantastic guitarist.

[Guropium]

stay with your blues lick.

[Rockunstank]

nice!

[klarth44]

Betcha Don't wanna play this ...

[ChucklesMginty]

@klarth44 Actually I do.

[xPrisonOfTheMindx]

@klarth44

you're on!

lost the bet, i do want to play this.

[SpineSplitter6]

@klarth44

betcha can't appreciate musical talent...

[veeragandersucks]

why do the call it an esquire, its just a telecaster with one fuckin pickup?

[cody13smith]

@veeragandersucks actually, a telecaster is a dual pickup esquire...so i've been told

[veeragandersucks]

@cody13smith still weird lol

[cody13smith]

@veeragandersucks Yeah it is :P

[joshlgrant]

Betcha i wouldnt want to

[fretbored1974]

i saw in the live Resolution dvd. a once Danny Gatton-owned Tele w/c i think andy used for Headin'

[HellraiserC197]

is it me, or did he play that PERFECTLY?

[girocoffy1234]

ugliest guitar in the world

[1993danielr]

@girocoffy1234

fuck u it's a beautiful guitar

[girocoffy1234]

@1993danielr dude it's just my opnion. i think it's ugly, you don't big deal

[RandomJam666]

@1993danielr not

[DanMoziki]

holy shit balls

[mrbig71014]

wtf was that?????!!!!! Awesome

[thedy77]

the bluesy lick sounds freakin awesome!!!!

[FCValle]

good to see a "betcha cant play this" that is not distorted.Just to vary a bit..

[flowerdrop1]

pretty cool ... Dixie Dregs influence

[ThelilKnight]

doesn't look like a very good guitar, but you make it work

[peavyt15]

@ThelilKnight esquires are awesome guitars. its basically a tele with just a bridge pickup.

[ThelilKnight]

@peavyt15 still looks like a little girls guitar! LOL, no offence.

[virtuosolomon]

HOLY SHIT

[gerwynzxc]

he looks like mj

but not the hair

[mrpwned23]

what!!?? andy timmons is a true musician!!

what is a musician of his stature doing in a crappy serie of videos with mediocre guitarists D: (well we have some exceptions, like marty friedman and others ;) )

poor andy, he is underrated as satch and vai are overrated :/ (i like them anyway)

[blargyblargster]

@mrpwned23 In my opinion, Vai and Satch aren't overrated at all. They deserve every ounce of respect they get. An example of an extremely overrated guitarist would, of course, be Slash.

[bnosam]

@blargyblargster I agree completely.

[shanesreallycool]

they should do Paul Gilbert: know you cant play this

[chandlerbeckhoff]

0:01 to skip ads

[KingAnden]

Judging a guitarist by a Betcha Can't Play This-video is fucking retarded (unless its Herman Li). Andy Timmons is a pretty neat guitarist.

[hellspawn0391]

...

[Shadowguy987]

Homo..

[biker19860708]

@Shadowguy987 Say it after you've listened to his music (f.e. remember stevie, electric gypsy, groove or die, etc.)... he will blow your head. Or if you're listening to hardcore, pop or electronic music, then I didn't say a word. keep your opinion. have a nice day

[havjac95]

The dad i never got :P

[matabaldia]

I Talked with him a few times in namm show, and this guy its incredible nice and down to earth.

[GTASAmovies1]

One of the most underrated guitarists on the planet

[INFECTIONCORE]

now a day youtube suck with annoying ads

DAMN IT !! 

[Darkdead95]

ROFL ROFL ROFL ROFL

sounds like genesis or nintendo

[eseith]

Timmons is a fucking animal. I've been digging him for almost 20 years.

[rjg7000]

Oh wow. I love the sound of the lick at 2:10 and on. It's so awesome! :)

[JBJHJM]

Now thats something I think I really will never be able to play ...

crazy great

[kerf2023]

Love the fact its not rediculously high gain.

[davizin1]

finally

[rackeffect]

Jesus, he is killer.

[kennyboyfox92]

ye finally its not just complete shredding. instead something smart and original

[markymarc18579]

Very cool lick, I don't have June 09 GW here, does anyone have the tab?

[mrellsworths]

I betcha Andy Wood can play that .. :-)

[AngryLlamaz]

hey im andy timmons and im going to rip out your neck if you survive this video

[TheWarCandy]

guitar doesnt have any style

[7d7e7f7]

He sounds pretty good, but he doesn't seem to move around the neck much.

[matrixman609]

@7d7e7f7 if you listen to all of his other music, he sure does. he's an incredible player

[monarrezu]

this is probably my favorite betcha can't play this It just sounds different than all of the rest

[jamierobinson777]

Come by my page and try my own Betcha Can't Play This video!

[nickbaldeagle01]

Right, I will.

[yekshemesh4alig]

Does that guitar only have 1 single coil?

Looks clean, like it!

[najtrows]

@yekshemesh4alig yeah its an esquire

[deathbringer0520]

@yekshemesh4alig I was under the idea that the other pickup was under pickguard because it still has a pickup selector. But im not really sure. It might be for show. But I do agree with you on how clean it looks.

[slash78]

a Fender Esquier!! nice, really vintage axe!!

[bigtophalloween]

@slash78 It's actually a reissue, but vintage styled at least.
