Lori Linstruth Solos

[OysterSnow]

She is a very very skilled theorician. She's no composer or interpret for that matter.

[gulnare69]

Awesome player, but such cheese.

[JonDeth]

I bash all neo-classical guitarists.

They think they're Mozart or Bach but they're just playing these rudimentary straight from the book patterns that sound very lavish but lack unique identity.

Ride the equipment and the book, forget home brewing a new science and language.

[mronemanband1]

so was vinnie moore and tony mcalpine?just faster ...huh

[ColKorn1965]

I think sometimes women are more meticulous when it comes to learning how to make a piece 'flow"

[akatsukimember94]

yeah Lori Linstruth is the best woman guitarrist of the world

[boulhech]

woooowww i'd do anything to have you as my guitar instructor ... beauty+ talent = one hell of a combination

[Filthkid666]

what`s this bands name?

[DylanGalvinMusic]

Badass. Not crazy about the song, but this girl can play a rock solo. She's a little by the book, but good timing, phrasing and tone fits the genre. Side note: you will notice a few negative comments. I have a theory that less than 5% of all people who leave negative comments actually have posted their own material. Go to their pages and see if it's true. Guaranteed no vids. Probably a blank, tasteless page with 2-5 uploads of tasteless material.

[jhey007]

i wish i could at least play half of that :/

[GPMETALBR]

so what she's a girl?!?

.....she have hands, just like all the male guitar players out there....

I personally belive, that when anyone have a guitar (or any other instrument)

in hand, sex doesn't matter at all....

we have a great guitar player in this vid...

[exodyssey]

@GPMETALBR Thats very true, but i guess the guitar has always been a man's tool and therefore a girl is not allowed to make music using a guitar.

I think thats wrong, there's many girls who are actually better at playing the guitar so it's kinda pointless.

[sgrouge]

@GPMETALBR no sex does not matter, but there are physical diffrences though.

But yeah, music has no sex, right!

[OysterSnow]

@GPMETALBR Muscles and physical abilities are not the same for women and men. Women beat men on many levels but reflexes and eye-to-body coordination is not their cup of tea. Lori is the exception, as there is always an exception but, in most cases, women don't become great shredders. Might be caused by their altruism vs. male competitivity.

[CREWDOG289]

good gutar no CD out yet???????

[slaQ83]

I love how you put 3 solos in the video, and managed to get two of them to be the exact same solo xD

[dejandjukic]

i have new favourite guitar player. wow.

[nneevveerrmmoorree]

Arjen has a better eye for talent than all the Lori haters...Face it Arjen has better taste than us...He chose Micheal Romeo, Russel Allen,Floor Jansen, Devin Townsend, Ty Tabor..etc etc etc....No one write better songs, not even Nevermore

[WarmothGuitarist]

I'd love to see Satch and Vai organize a female G3 tour...and call it "L3". The first one could be Orianthi, Lori, and Nancy Wilson. Nancy Wilson might not be a technical lead player that Ori and Lori are, but she's far and away the best female rhythm guitar player I've ever heard. She's the queen bee of female players... She started it all for them back in the early 70's.

[NellyIbanezArt120]

whats it got to do if your male or female? its about how you play not the gender.

[WickedSteak]

This woman pwns at guitar. No question. I wish i had that much talent.. Anyone who says otherwise is probably just some guy that can't stand the fact that a female can play better than them.

[AbyssiumDr]

Is she the guitarist that played along some song with Ayreon?

[Destroyer185]

@AbyssiumDr She plays on 01011001 and The Final Experiment. She is also the lead guitarist of Guilt Machine, Arjen's new project.

[vorderbruggen]

she should be playing metal!!!!

[Laihoistheman]

@vorderbruggen umm she is....

[aururick]

She is pretty good guitar player,she does use tremolo Barr allot but that's her stile and her arpeggios are clean and i agree with dude below Yngwie is one dimensional everything sound same he has about three different solos all together and his sound of guitar give me a headache

[MYTUBEISAPUSSY]

she's great but if U take the tremolo-arm away from her guitar she will refuse to play it !!!

[lNVlCTUS]

@MYTUBEISAPUSSY - just seems to be part of her sound, its there to be used.

[bongolow07]

I think she's influenced by Marty Friedman.

[highwaymanpp05]

I just wish I could play 1/100th as good as her then at least I could play something, oh well I'll just keep trying

[cycoslayer69]

Awesome technique but pretty boring solos imo.

[mayaalicia]

What song is this?

[Froodinho]

out in the real world

[mattbrown]

i think her phrasing is tasteful and theres nothing to criticize in her technique... shes fucking hot...

[ErgoDM]

It's really easy to write 'shit' on youtube. you don't have any good solo videos of yourself or solo attempts but you can write 'she plays like shit, her solos are shit'.

she has two thing that most of the girls don't:

1- a strong ability in art(music).

2- she's pretty.(yea not important, but she is)

so please stop acting like a cheap cort guitar.

[whynottalklikeapirat]

cheap cort guitar ;0) love that

[xDimebladex]

@ErgoDM fuck you. I mean, yes your opinion 'bout her is correct, but damn, i have a cort and it's awsome

[525600minutes1]

Pinched harmonics doesn't = good guitar playing.

This sounds a similar tone to that of Yngwie Himself

I agree its a bit plain, but listen to some of the solos she has written (eg. Passion) and tell me that again

And the lack of fancy techniques is intentional, because she can undoubtedly do them, as displayed in some of her videos.

Post a better video response, and I will gladly take back this next remark: Shut the fuck up, you obviously know nothing about playing the guitar, you wanker.

[HyperfastMalmsteen]

the tone sounds nothing like malmsteen...this tone sounds like a keyboard..something like they use in Japanese games..tone sucks..and delay..she pretty much sucks...but all in here gonna say she rocks bla bla bla..just because she is hot chick and think you guys will maybe get lucky by making nice comments..next time ill bring in a midget in a bikini and let him shred..

[kickcableguyinnuts]

girl or not i think shes good, but im guessing by your name youre not impressed by anything but speed and ripping off bach and paganini. just a guess though.....malmsteen is good at guitar but needs to quit writing for his backing band, and possibly to suck it. i think you overlook her vibrato which is his strong point because she isnt playing as fast as she can usually for the sake of the song knowing its not all about her. ive seen her do some shred that was up to par too. youre jealous

[HyperfastMalmsteen]

i would be jealous if i was impressed and did not know how to play guitar..but i can play most of malmsteens songs so im not that impressed..but if im to take that she is a women in consideration..then yeah im impressed because i know not many women have guitar skills other than playing some acoustic guitar with 4 chords

[silentboy85]

she isnt only can play so good, she is also pretty.

[HjalmarGuitarMaster]

In what band is she?

[sgrouge]

I love Lori style, sharp and aggressive, not too much notes, just the good feeling...

I love the sound she makes in fact, most of all ^^

[noangels]

Lori is a great guitarist,and SOP are a great band-would love to have one of their singers in my band!

[duduvcd3000]

all the lame people like humbucker01 out there get a life just say something good you ass shes more guitariest when you ever be...dont try to look cool...

when you will play better solos then her call me~~~!

you total ass wipe "sorry folks" hahaha get a life...

[humbucker01]

I have very specific guidelines I go by(I have well trained ears) that's 1 way I know,And I can feel what she's trying to achieve,but it's funny sometimes to see the girl player's really believing in themselves,trying so hard ,and out comes BLAH....... she's OK in her own group,but she's not even compareable to any good male player's,Such as myself;Let alone the gods.....

[GloryThyName]

Embrace the Storm has very good guitar work. This solo was pretty boring but its a live show, even the gods tend to have off days. I have seen Judas Priest crash and burn, I have seen Iron Maiden crash and burn, Metallica is shit house on alot of live shows.

[JamminJimmyClark]

Humbucker...you are a sexist mutha fukka...

[dolincalgard]

You like feet.

[afrosmokes]

lmao, u m8, are a cunt

[oregonskateok]

I'm sure your amazing with your 0 videos.

[Child0fB0d0m55]

i know she kicks ur ass!!

[humbucker01]

I'm not impressed,(At All!)she's tryin' to play a bluesy solo,and she don't let the notes ring out,she hardly bends the strings,and when she does,there's no feel to the note she's playin'..Plus a very generic tone,that nails it shut right there.....Sorry folks

[exodyssey]

You are allowed to have your own appinion, but i still thinks her music is special in the way that she is a female and play the guitar pretty good...

[rmsolympic1]

Thanks for pasting this clip. Could you tell me what songs she is soloing over here and, for that matter, which songs and albums showcase her guitar GREATNESS? On another note, you can always count on You Tube to serve up an army of Dilberts who are always - always - better than the best and brightest, being generally wiser and sharper than all the rest of us, such as some our musical geniuses and critics on this thread. Lol.

[SoloCommando]

how would you know?

[SupremoHumberto]

I'd say she wasn't trying to play a bluesy solo considering shes not a fan of blues or jazz

[ColtonSaylor713]

@humbucker01 Blues??? So blues sounds like an epic sweep shred with techno like singing???? Where is YOUR head at man pfff

[Augenatic]

@humbucker01 there's a lot of melody and her vibrato sounds great to me man, i love it

[y2joylen]

@humbucker01 she has the jason becker tone, very sexy, but shes a women, so no

[tlord29]

@y2joylen I so agree, If I was just listening to the playing, I would have thought it was Becker strictly on tone. The vibrato's are much more vai though

[PhilosopherOnWeed]

@tlord29 Vai uses circular vibrato with his fingers...all she uses is her whammy for the vibrato :/

[exodyssey]

@PhilosopherOnWeed i agree that Vai is better skilled, he did get to learn from one of the smartest and truly skilled guitarist Frank Zappa. Lori did not

[PhilosopherOnWeed]

@exodyssey And Satriani not to forget ofcourse!

[fnuggie]

@humbucker01 Go check out some of her other stuff

[SolethVonGrave]

@humbucker01

I think you, my friend, don't know a thing about metal at all.....

[tezzquill]

Hmmm...slightly disappointed that you only compiled solo's from Out In The Real World...i was hoping for solo's from other tracks as well, but 5 stars!

[HMStratocaster]

This is what an HM Strat can do in the hands of a talented player. As you can hear, the tremelo is very stable, sensitive and responsive. Great guitars.

[tomatation]

Es de las mejores guitarristas, aunque creo que tiene mejores solo, mucho mejores.

She has much better solos, well I prefer the computer eyes solo rather than this.

[Rhoads93]

She's definately one of my favorites

[TheBodomBeachTerror]

she is a phenomenal player , i love her

[bmontesdeoca]

is this stream of passion?

[qlpa12]

Damn,

i love her passion... and her :)
