  • THE BEST COVER!!!!! MUY BUENO!!!!!

    

  • The 'b' string is out a little. :( That's all I heard.

    Pretty good, though! :)

  • Step 1: be asian

    Step 2: repeat step 1

  • amzaing!

  • His playing is very inspiring and his improvisation awesome!

  • I'd like to take every person who has left a negative comment about this video, give them a guitar, and ask them to play this piece. Something tells me none of them would even touch this guy.

  • as well...........is asian!

  • One of my favorite EJ tunes... nice cover Jack; well done!

  • Anyone else finds the backing track supremely irritating?

  • @suhelmukherjee ..shut up daft lad

  • Fantastic! Perfect!

  • shit!! he's awesome...I wish i could be like him

  • The BEST Manhattan Cover G3 Version!

    Não vi melhor que essa ainda! Só deu uma escorregada dos 2:12 - 2:40.

  • The BEST Manhattan Cover G3 Version!

    Não vi melhor que essa ainda!

  • This deserves so many more views than it has...

  • Oh my, this guy is quite young.and he absolutely gets it... has it... delivers.  Very nice =)

  • What's the point ,this is NOT Eric Johnson

  • You're fucking awesome.

    But one thing I'd recommend, is to use your thumb for the octaves. It gives it that authentic Wes Montgomery sound. Also, work on your Harp harmonics. Apart from that, you're way ahead of all of us!

  • Gustavo Guerra plays it better....

  • @Raazeerr  But Jack's tone is better :)

  • @Raazeerr gustavo guerra is a joke.

  • @Raazeerr GG runs, smiles and uses too much gain. And too much jerking off the neck. There's a good and a "bad" GG, guess which one is the "bad".

  • I just listened to GG version and didn't like it. thought his timing was out or it could be from a delay/slapback making me thing that. I wnt to watch another and it's the same. GG's timing is out, he plays behind the beat. This guys is much better.

  • @littlegoobie Of course. For me, the bad GG is Gustavo Guerra. The good one is Guthrie Govan. Check Wonderful Slippery thing from Guthrie Govan. THen check Guerra's cover. It's the worst cover ever, but he's still great at a lot of points

  • i too stop my porn for wacht this

  • Excelent!

  • again,well played,i assumed you've seen eric's guitar instruction videos,

    no hard feelings man,but you must learn to play the classical harmonic technique in the song, otherwise it's incomplete,i think you understand what i am saying

  • 1:11 - How can I play it? Seriously, can anybody show me?

  • This guy have a passage to stage anytime He want. Very best cover. Technical and feeling united. Perfect timing on every note touched.

  • How can people dislike this?!?!? this was the best cover of any song ever

  • There's no better cover of any song on youtube..This is simply amazing!

  • how do you get the distortion sound of eric thanks + i am a custom e guitar buikder if you thinking of buy one tell me

  • In AWE watching u bro way to go.

  • PERFECT COVER...................

  • man asians are gonnna rule the world!

  • i love this song.. thanks jack! your the best!!!!

  • the notes are all struck perfectly...just amazing...man dude!

  • Wow, your fucking tone is extremely close to Erics!!!

    Wow man, I am blown away!!!

  • is this song easier to learn than glasgow kiss ?

  • @bytedildo no.. its the same level with different technical difficulity

  • he is like guthrie govan or some other god !

  • 20 people have serious hearing problems

  • I was sick yesterday, and when I hear him play this song, I feel better .:) sorry for my english, I'm from Indonesia. :D

  • This guy is already the next big thing!

  • very sweet, great job

  • jack thammarat is the best!

  • Eric plays this one just as you did. Perfect! You became my referent video to learn this masterpiece. Thanks a lot for sharing.

  • HEy Jack what pickup in the bridge????????

  • @JesusWorship7 I believe he once said they are all Dimarzio Tonezone

  • @GuitarAriaFreak1010 Oh ok thanks!!!

  • His hands were very soft.. =))))

  • Comment removed

  • @MrDude2626 It probably only took this guy a week though.

  • @MrDude2626 But this guy has originals --' please search before saying somthing absolutly stupid...this guy was guitar idol in 2009, he has a band and your comment was completly irrational.

    So if I practice a lot just to show of to my friends that means that I won't get anywhere? --'

  • @MrDude2626 Do some research you pitiful prick. You judge him by this song only. You're jealousy is very obvious. Get a life and quit ruining youtube!!!!

  • @MrDude2626 he does write his own songs and he won guitar idol. so shut up

  • todo mundo sabe que o Eric Johnson's é exigente ao extremo quando falamos de sonoridade e trimbre. mas acho que este cover ele aprovaria. muito bom, cara.estou tocando esta musica,estou no 80° compasso.

  • Eric johnson created 18 accounts to dislike this!

  • I think I'ma head on down to Manhattan now..

  • very good, excelent!!! ,greetings from mexico

  • very good, excelent!!! greetings from mexico

  • 18 people including eric johnson :p

  • I agree that the tone was perfect but there were a few very small mistakes note wise.

    I find Cesar Huesca's cover more accurate. But an insane cover nonetheless. Brilliant job!

  • Incredible. No other word describes it.

  • PODER CHECHU!!

  • asian pacific islanders know how to rock...........

  • The tone, perfect!

  • There's a rumour going round that this guy played a bum note sometime in the 90's

  • Thumbs Up for People who think this guy is the next Big thing!

  • @JoePodable

    Only if he can develop his own style and songs.

  • @EgoShredder Of course! 

  • @JoePodable he is

  • what a music... that was awesome! too cool to be true... You're the man!

  • this is the very best of all i've seen who covered manhattan.. EJ!

  • Good music! Great job!

  • respect bro.... there's ntg wrong with your guitar plaing... i like it anyway....

  • I can play this blind getting a bj from cindy crawford

  • @jmj5150 LOL!!!!

  • Heard this cover many times but Jack you nailed it my friend best I heard lovely sweet playing!

  • ชอบมาก อยาก เห็น ตัวเป็น ๆ

  • you look bored, have some feeling man and dont just look down on the neck......

  • @MichaelJacksonSpin Listen to the music and forget what he's doing. When you listen to a record you don't care about facial expressions. By the way, Eric Johnson seems to be bored and always looks down the neck.

  • Sorry, forgive me. You are all dorks who's only guitar experience is from a video game. I forget you are all spectators and dreamers.

  • Jack makes me want to put down my guitar and just watch!

  • Whoever said he's faking all his videos clearly has no clue what this guy is capable of.

  • he's faking it.. cmon guys

    do you believe everything you see on youtube

  • @jmj5150 and all of his other covers are fake too. Those jams are pre recorded, and the improv sections are also already played by someone else

  • @jmj5150 what are you? hiding in a cave! look man! you think it's fake? when he even Won a title guitar idol? what hell get a life man! eric johnson is one reason why he is playing guitar!

  • @nikkolightcrips19 I know he won Guitar Idol and just like Eric Johnson they play boring music and makes me feel like i am listening to Walgreens, Walmart, CVS background shopping music. Of course, will a due respect to E Johnson and Jack is not him so dont get confused.

  • @jmj5150  Yeah watch other live video's from Jack his channel . i will tell you it's not fake.

  • @p0m2002 I bet you masturbate to Jack too. Get it? JACK OFF

  • monkey see monkey do is not MUSICIANSHIP!

    TABBING is a false sense of ability.

  • id give my bollocks to play like this

  • hats off to you young man, splendid.

  • fantastic man!

    great job.

  • man you reminds me on my guitar teacher

  • I can only imagine how hard this is to play. EJ is highly complex in his chord shapes and phrases. Nice job!

  • your great!!!!!!!!!!! keep posting great videos like this one:)

  • If I close my eyes , it would be EJ standing in front of me.

  • Amazing performance!

  • this if wat i called smooth of perfection!

  • If only Eric Johnson could see and hear this... he'll be jealous... lolz

  • SUCH an awesome guitarist. Nails it every time.

  • Kudos Jack!. You go it to almost perfection.. from tone, feel and touch. You are truly an inspiration to many young aspiring Asian guitar players. All the best!

  • I am not much wonder be'coz he is the one, The idol guitar winner year 2009. he can be clearliest and finest guitar player...

  • What I really like in Jack is that he feels the music and express them with his unbelievable skills.

    I take my hat off to you. You're one of the best.

  • More great playing Jack!!

  • bravo

  • é eu esutdei os harmonicos e aprendi.. só tem que aprender a fazer os harmonicos aqueles.. e ja era. é facil.. só aparenta ser dificil.. voce apenas delizou o dedo em cima do acorde.. nao apareceu nenhum harmonico.. mas voce é excelente mesmo assim.

  • Sweet! Thanks for sharing this.

  • damn, that tone is sick...

  • sounds better than fake... I am the one who is the faggot here.... dayam!!

  • excelent, almost sounds fake:P

  • AMAZING!!! Your playing is beautiful! :)))

  • wow!!

  • Bad Ass!!! you totally owned that song! Great work!

  • Espetacular Jack, o que você fez é para poucos, amo essa música e como músico sua interpretação foi perfeita.

    Vejo que você é um grande guitarrista Deus abençoe sua vida, continue assim postando vídeos para nós amadores da boa música vermos que é possível chegar lá!

    Parabéns!!!!!

  • good job kid

  • caralho, perfeito, 15 idiotas nao gostaram.

  • Good job

  • you rock:D

  • how long does it take to learn a song note for note? and every nuance

  • @foxybrown2 you cant... just the note by note part... cause every artist has they're way through the instrument which cant be copied

  • nice to be one of the very few to be this talented,

    nice job just doesn't say it enough...not even close

    never put that guitar down man, you are blessed.

  • this is what i call perfection.

  • @gio12323

    the perfection is what's wrong with it. he's playing it note for note from TAB! EJ plays it dfferently EVERYTIME! the TAB is just a copy of what he did in one moment in time.

    getting sick of these TABBERS. TABBING is NOT playing!

  • @gio12323

    Not perfection but damn close! I really enjoyed his rendition of this classic from big EJ.

  • This dude is good man...

  • A+ Lovely sound :D

  • awesome tone!

  • Your tone is amazing. Maybe your play skill make good tone, I imagin,,,,

    I want to be so.. You are great. Thank's.
