Nice bro! Do you get lessons? I'm completely self taught myself and I'm in a band, you should try start a band man your awesome. I personally like being self taught because you can create your own 'Flare' and style so to speak and the creativity flows though your veins dude, NICE JOB! Keep Rockin'!
As his cousin, I'd like to just point out that this video is 2 years old. He's 15 now, in a band, and writing a number of original songs. And his playing is of course a lot better. Search McLovins and watch their most recent video, the song called 20 in a 35. You'll see what I mean.
Man, I wish my family could've afforded a vid camera when I was that age, I'd have blown some minds. But, eh, this kid is mediocre..and I'm being generous.
all it does is shows you what tabs and lessons can do.... i learned the hard way and tought myself to play this and MANY others.......... ive played for 2 years and im 13 sooo i dont get whats so special and i know it satriana
Your body of work is really special. It shows a real passion. Please stop by our organization, youth-arts-forum and sign up. We have some very talented kids already on the site with more stopping by daily. We are currently putting together a NYC concert and who knows; maybe you will be part of the fun. Regardless, it would be really cool for you to share your work with the world. Keep up the passion
I've been playing for 5 years and i'm 14, but his kid is AWESOME! I have a Jackson RR24 so this isn't really my style but his kid just needs to keep playing and he will be on top.
you go to comit to playing guitar when u start. like this kid is really good n stuff but like me, im 13 and been playing for 4 years and didnt comit to it, i didnt take it serioulsy and had to teach myself, so now im taking it seriously,and it took pretty hard work to get almost to his standard of playing. great job :]
A lot of 13 year olds on here :P I'm 13 too. Fortunately for me I picked up a Gibson Les Paul studio for 350$ on craigslist! I'm pretty good for my age I guess. I play anywhere from metal to alternative rock.
Shredding is fun. but i like more of the basic rock. some bands i like to play are peral jam, stone temple pilots, some metallica, led zeppelin, and soundgarden. those are the usual. what do you play?
I play some acoustic stuff, too, though. Mostly improvisations. I do work on songs by bands like Metallica, Lynard Skynard, and mainstream metal like Atreyu and Escape the Fate. xD
my friend simon is just as good if not better,...same age...he has a vid from when he was 12 on youtube he was on tv before...type in simon martinez...and look at cliffs of dover and more...that was some shit he was playin on tv but he can do soo much more he plays at partys for us sounds like a 30 year old guitarist he's sponsored by fender since last month no joke
type in simon martinez hes my friend sponsored by fender he has a vid of crushing day by joe satriani, cliffs of dover and much more h'es amazing talented....only 13 years old he was on tv once he's a prodigy in guitar
well he did a good job, it was pretty clean, but that doesnt make him a prodigy, it just means he is very determined at playing guitar and tht he has a good chance of being a great player if he keeps up the practice. I learned master of puppets at about 13, its actually the first full song i learned, but i started slacking for about a year so now im trying to catch up :P :). Though if he keeps practicing a lot, he can definitely get somewhere.
Prodigy my ass. Dont get me wrong, this kids pretty good, but im 13 and i can play way better then that, such as Duncan hills coffee solo, Six by All that Remains, other shit i cant think of
(im not tryin to brag, im just sayin this kid is no prodigy)
First off, god damn that kid is short! lol we have the same age and taste in music. And agreed this kid is no prodigy, and like you said I can play duncan hills coffee solo too, and I've only been playing for just under a year. How can you even call this shredding? Its slow as fuck. I've pulled faster licks out of an acoustic guitar. Hwe obviously has no taste in guitars either.
Dude thats the same exact guitar i hav Glen Burton sunburst ive been playing bout 2 months and sad to say dude im alrady better then that how long u been practicin
i dont understand how you can make that assumption that he cant sing. Its not hard at all to play and sing at the same time. I play harmonica and guitar at the same time its pretty easy and when i learn to sing better ill be able to play and sing at the same time.
I don't know what's the matter with some of you shit for brains.The kid's only 13 with many more years of improvement yet to come but it seems to me you're already expecting the finished article in his playing. Get a life no marks.
nice, Joe Satriani's Satch Boogie, great song, but you don't seem too good at keeping beat, that and some of the parts are wrong, I could see why you would improvise the middle of the song, but Satriani doesn't improvise the actual solo. Other than that really good for a beginner guitarist, but there are many better young players. 4/5
He has been playing long enough to use his pinky like he did (at two points) in this vid it is kinda like he is purposely not using it though. Good job for sure I just don't buy the "hasn't been playing long" tag
to mole2k7 - ur a washed up sack of s*** who has no life at all. someday, when this kids famous, and ur living in a cardboard box in downtown NY, maybe u'll regret saying that...
