[TheMrisler]

My Future Wife!

[MrDarklurkker]

shes soooo hott!!!!



[wallacefilho1]

you have a backing track?/ you send me?/ thanks....

[intrinsicx]

Niiiiiiiiiccceee! :)

[cognitiveguerilla]

God those Deans have the ugliest headstocks ever.

Now to the point, Awesome playing....subscribing

[Robtron3030]

Katrina you rule!! ever considered thicker strings? you could definitely handle them and sound even beefier

[guitarjoe34]

hay katrina you open up for my band , cant wait to see ya .

[cdevers100]

Very Nice....Killer tone and chops.

[tduffy001]

Talent.....



[MegaCOOK28]

ive, got 30+ yrs expereince.... i know a fantastic guitarist when i here one . this woman shreds!!!!!

[bradfordax]

Your blend of shred & melody inspires me beyond description. I see & hear the best of Satriani, Malmsteen & Vai in "Driven". Fantastic composition & riffing! Can't wait to hear more from you.

[ColKorn1965]

the guitar dwarfs her...but that's ok

[phantomblue97]

@ColKorn1965

Always hated that when it comes to female guitarists. Most are really good, but they just don't look capable of handling a guitar...

[prankovalero]

Awesome! I can see the MAB influence here....

[jacksonntrdr]

WOW!!!! Im Speechless. I mean you are total awesome super coolness. WOW!! \m/;)\m/

[bandamazmorra]

muito legal parabens!!

[EternalDeathhh13]

Wow amazing riffs...

[MrNeosantana]

Do I taste some Crazy Train riffing?

The female Michael Angelo Batio at work!

[GaryLaneSaints5]

WOW !!! Smokin-Clean-Outstanding. Love It !!! Gary Lane

[jal88888]

Yeah she is bad ass....at 2:48 I burned my guitar and setup...

[Michael49637]

If I could play like this, I would chop off my hands ..... A tribute to you Katrina.

[Nailb0mb]

Thank you!!

[oreostitchlucyraji]

I love Katrina Johannson. That used to be my guitar teacher!

[jonathan123412341234]

thats a sweet riff i will give it that, and definitely the best i ever heard by any girl and most of the guys

[xDimebladex]

Michaela Angelina Batio :)

[MrNeosantana]

@xDimebladex Yup

[agrimms]

Her tone is equivalent to MABs.

Interesting. I know he played bass on one of her EPs too.

[imsuckingwind]

Nice!

[CounterfeitDogz]

This is beautiful, the notes sing, the flourishes kill & sure, we've all heard the progressions before but they're damn good progressions. Fucking greatness.

I've heard shred & it just doesn't impress me, musicality does. if someone overweight played like this I'd still rate it pretty highly. I don't know her well but I'd known her for awhile & this is one dedicated player.

[Metallimeister]

Beyond good. The melodies stay with you (including the shreds).

She should release all her material on one CD

[severedheadkisskiss]

I'd listen to this over Def Leppard, Iron Maiden, Guns N Roses, Faith No More, White Zombie, or Pearl Jam any goddamn day.

[tenhundredkills]

Realistically, how many people are just watching this because she's hot? The song isn't bad or anything, it's just nothing spectacular. If some fat dude was playing this, I'd probably just dismiss the song as mundane and move on IMO.

[SidVicious10101]

Impressive. But a lot of it just didn't sound good, or clean. I'm no good at shred myself, but still.

[GuitarGuy057]

@SidVicious10101 Obviously. This is so clean it's almost flawless. And it sounds good if you listen to this kind of stuff, obviously.

[SidVicious10101]

@GuitarGuy057 Woah, I legitimately don't know what I was saying about not clean, that was a falsehood on my part. And I do listen to this kind of stuff, but it still doesn't sound good to me.

[GuitarGuy057]

@GuitarGuy057 *shrug* I like her; to each their own.

[sgrouge]

She sounds pretty good, and shes so hot

[EricWennerstrand]

Yah, She sounds and looks great but the song or backing tracks don't do anything for me. Yah I know a lot of fans love this kind of thing, but I'd like to hear her licks with something more interesting. It's probably just a genre thing, guitar shredders always seem to play over this sort of stuff -- it highlights a certain ability and sound.

[confederaterocker89]

her song daredevil is the best

[BoostedPanda]

Shes amazing but this sounds WAAAYYY to much like MAB.

[bernhardtsen74]

he is her guitar teacher!!!

she was one of the first dean endorsees like mab too!

[Harrysound]

Pretty awesome really....

[robibm2003]

Killer looks, killer guitar work and killer tune!

[753nilo]

that guitar is to big for she

[spineless93]

@753nilo and too ugly

[CyValkarion]

@753nilo you mean "her"?

@spineless93 duh, it's a Dean.

[yzdit]

THIS ROCK !

[juliusceasartinde666]

Verry nice! michael angelo batio style! never thought a girl would do this!

[Infinit0s]

MAB style ;> MAB guitar, just not MAB playing :P but still nice 

[collinsrodog]

best girl guitar player ive seen but the song is so boring

[HughCarpenter]

@collinsrodog ,

You may think it's boring, but I think most of us disagree -- no inflection meant! This song is awesome.

[anahiyapa]

OMG that guitar is so huge for her! anyway! she's good :)

[keropiboy]

this is awesome... much like carina alfie and lori linstruth

[utnacmit]

She reminds me of a thinner Kari Byron who can shred.

[dikinurface]

sounds like a MAB song

[nywalkerguy]

She reminds me of the Great Kat, A fantastic shred artist.

[Dasher10]

This is the woman who will revive shred metal. Shred isn't dead!

[renantuniiing]

Mandou muito bem na guitarra parabéns !!!

 Você é uma boa inspiração para as mulheres brasileiras

tocarem guitarra.

[saumier1]

bet you she's Batio fan.

[jhonpetru]

She's Not Just A Pretty Face

[iselldummysmacks]

Respect...

[Cursed1992]

Respect for women playin guitar. Could somebody tell me, that girls cannot play guitar? That would be a lie.

[GD4LBeast]

she has the same style as mab

[Tehgoodcrap]

yeah, but a little less clean on the shredding

[thesleeper7]

One of my favorite female guitar players. Totally dig this piece. Ty 4 uploading.

[baelsharon]

rockin!

[Icarlypeople]

SHE ROCKS!!!!!!!

I have seen her play before and she really knows how to rock! She's on Itunes too, you can get all of her songs.

[bluecat1985]

ADMIRABLE

[mollysmucker]

She rules

[rsgcoolio97]

she's my guitar teacher. : )

[Icarlypeople]

@rsgcoolio97 mine too

[rsgcoolio97]

@Icarlypeople verry cool

[caimaniatico]

its great..

[bucketheadfan1]

awsome! and i love the dean i was considering buying one myself

[Icarlypeople]

This Chic ROCKS!

[InsanityRerun]

There's a very batio-esque vibe to this but that's really not a bad thing... Nice to see some good female neoclassical playing.

[papaphilo]

batio neoclassical???isnt he just a shredder??i have never heard a neoclassical song by batio!!

[ozzy9691]

have you heard anything by batio?

[papaphilo]

yeah he's one of my favourite guitarists!!but i dont think he can be tagged!!you know i mean he has an original style as a shredder!!i dont think that you can call him a neoclassical player!!but that's just my opinion!!what's yours?

[ozzy9691]

i think all of his sweep picking techniques are the definition of neoclassical...i also thnk think that this girl is a total babe

[papaphilo]

i dont think that if sweep picking techniques are the definition of neoclassical!!they sure are shredding techniques though!!anyway yeah this guitarist is beautiful i agree!!and i like her playing as welll!!

[ozzy9691]

no boundaries is neoclassical

[COBHC694]

batio has skill but all of his stuff bores me

[ozzy9691]

skill amuses me

[lambaboy0]

damn rights!

[obelisc1000]

i smell Batio all over this, wish is amazing and really good. and i know i should not be saying this but..... shes really pretty

[fernandocoag]

this has got all the BATIO´s vibe, really cool

[gutch666]

right

[osamierda]

Nice, but that's not Marshall sound for sure!

[kingconnor69]

yeah your right.. what sort of amps produce this smooth right distorion... im thinking carvin legacy's and mesa's

[pulidomi]

me pone la tia y me pone como toca

[scootyman10]

wow, impressive!

[buergie]

She could hide behind this huge guitar.

[MasterShredder365]

shes signd on mabs label thatz why theres a huge mab influence

[mikeresendiz]

simply great! i'm gonna say music has no sex and it's pretty cool to see chicks shredding like her or the great jennifer batten...

[MichaelJHuman]

That's sweet. Some serious sexism in this thread. Dudes, there's a ton of great female guitarists. Some of you should grow up and check them out. Joan Jett, the great Kat, Joni Mitchell, Nancy Wilson, to name a very small few.

[MasterShredder365]

lori linstruth is the probably the best tho

i hate the great kat

[guitarslave]

D AM N she is pretty...good at guitar.

[bobdeth]

Let me start by saying this song is awesome and that anyone who plays knows this(the people at Dean guitars know that's why this video is on their website!!!!!!!)and yes she is good for a girl, probably betterr than YOU or any other MALE guitarist that you know =)

[surrealsound]

this is the kind of girl i would marry

[lexcsh]

like Micheal angelo

[CircleOfFifz]

yeah, I notice a lot of MAB influence too.

[kinginsomnia]

lol she should marry him

[DiabolikalGodH8er]

GIRLS ARE NOT SUPPOSE TO DO THAT!!!

[TIT22]

great!

[DriesClaeys]

that guitar is way to big for her :p

but she's got nice skills

[MasterShredder365]

i loved the intro

[MasterShredder365]

2nd favorite guitarist

only person better is mab

[Ikirouta]

ever heard of Rusty Cooley? I dont like him but i think u could.

[Juandisimo]

hahaha. There are PLENTY of better guitarists. She's good for a girl though.

[Ikirouta]

love the intro

[cmonsterz]

That is just incendiary! Great melody and combination of extreme shred. Very good tone and nice rhythmic elements. Katrina is a seriously extreme guitarist! AWESOME!

[kathrinabethliz]

bueno

[mandrilbellaco]

nice shred!!!!

[sinphonyh]

MA Batio's school!!

[Slagger77]

holy crap she is fast, and maaaaaan she is god, its like crazy i havent seen her before

[TheLotusEater725]

She seems to have a great ear for melody as well.

[TheLotusEater725]

Cheesy video but damn that it a powerful intro.

[firestream101]

i want the tabs

[Zarag0d]

[alucarddamed]

Girl power, woot!

[Thormaster666]

[JPDawrueng]

[firestream101]

Not bad, but she really has to work on her vibratos.

[onefittyone]

love a lady who could play the guitar

sexy sexy

[Inuyasha259]

even if this had no vid you can still tell she's playing a dean guitar they all have that same sound, just compare the sound on this vid to michael angelo batio or gentaro and you can hear the same distinct dean sound crazy but true!

[laserar99]

beautifull lady!!! incredible song!!! very good digitation!!!

A good future. Te seguire

Kisses

[KH2R0xas]

Did you know Michael angelo batio played bass on this record?

[ahmedsamy]

awesome!!

[minihats]

Actually a good song, and not just a shredding exercise.

[AmazingCharles]

This lady definately pwns "The Great Kat". Kat is just way too sloppy. D:

[AtomikWarTerrorizor]

She's the best, any girl who can play like that gets insta-win in my book. To quote Wayne Campbell, "scha-wiiiiiiiiiing"!

Guitar skill to that caliber + looks like that=insta-boner

[fiovz]

katrina you are awesome

[31suckit]

In my opiniun shes the best female guitarest i have seen!

[torturer6067]

[31suckit]

nah i havent yet, ill look her up now!

[MistyLove7]

oh, sweet! I'd love to see that one. Whats her name, so I can look it up on here?

[torturer6067]

she has a short name: try searching steve vai girl germany live (shes from germany) the girl has talent:)

[InstruMentalCase]

Damn, I was hoping for a live performance.

[joenicol9]

She's amazing

Love those harmonic squels like at 0:17

5 Stars

Favorited :D

[tiloky]

AWESOME!

[Blitzzards]

Hi Katrina, that's a nice song you have here. Wish you all the best when hanging out and being in the same league as the other big gun shredder, especially Michael Angelo Batio!

[Loudsilence84]

hey katrina its ali (blackorchidx) nice video, i love it, Mike says that you did and awesome job but the video doesnt make you look pretty enough because you are far prettier

all the best x

[bman0555]

you dont see very many girls that can play guitar like that.. dont see many people period that can play like that. the dean ML is awsome.

[Victor0586]

!!Michael Angelo Batio!!

[duifjeh]

[thebesttriviumfan]
