Silvio Gazquez - Shred this competition -

[computer1pilot2]

this is amazing !!!!

[time4videos]

Nice playing. :) Which guitar is that?

[kostakos1331]

What scales do you use? I'm searching quite a few time to find this sounding scale. Heard it by many guitarists

[papuza]

@kostakos1331 i used a lot of arpeggios, you know, arpeggios with 7ths and some pentatonics and minor scales...

[kostakos1331]

@papuza what about the scale from 0:43 - 0:48

[papuza]

@kostakos1331 oh that´s some minor pentatonic with some chromatisms.

[brocgustafson]

I love it, but I couldn't find love for the tone you were using. Excellent playing though!

[papuza]

@brocgustafson thanks, but yeah that tone sucks...

[Mattish0]

man this is great, I really loved it, and would love to get a hold of a lesson for those arpeggios :)!

[soniikeuh]

Oh, my GOD ! You may are the best guitarist i've ever seen in my whole life (I'm 15....). Congrats man

[iamtyler4life]

what kind of guitar is that!??!

[METALISMUSIC100]

Nice god-like playing

[indefinitus]

Super! really really nice

[WoahRunawayJim]

can you add pickup covers to this?

[davluc1]

I like your playing. great job!

[BLaZe071775]

whOa!

[kobieflyingv]

amazing playing!

u sound jazz influenced

very bad ass easily one of the best things i have ever heard

[papuza]

thank you very much... I´m more influenced by fusion players like Greg Howe, Brett Garsed, Vinnie Moore...

[kobieflyingv]

either way its something i have never heard just abosolutly amazing! it would be awesome if you could watch some my my videos and tell me what i can improve on! im constanly looking for ways to improve so anything would help :)

[sild123]

yeah, very vinnie moore sounding i agree. great playing man! will you post a video for those hybrid picking arpegio licks? it would be great

[papuza]

thanks guys!

[papuza]

thanks man, i have some video `lessons´ in my youtube channel... cheers!

[Kaavs]

Man, i cant find any words to describe your playing. You're quite different from all those shredders, who post their vids to show off their technique, because you combine everything, including harmony. It's a pleasure to watch and listen to. Keep up the good work :D

[trxspirit]

i have the same guitar strap :D

[panelacosmica]

Silvio, aquí pasando como siempre a pillar esta entrada, muy brutal \m/

[xxguitardude93xx]

hey, your the same guy who blew away the PetrucciFever contest! Your awesome haha

[papuza]

haha, yeah, the same guy! thanks! Silvio G.

[baconstealer1]

how long have you been playing?

[vhguy]

Hey buddy, just dropping by to say I loved your submission.

I also checked out some of your other work on Myspace!

You rawk, brother!

PS please check out my video if you get a chance!

[paralleluniversemk]

Awesome playing. I really like those harmonized lines.

D.P.

[haw3jd]

No guitarist wants to hear you sound "just like" whoever, but in this video I heard some Jeff Beck influences, I think. I have listened to a lot of your vids and enjoy them. But that was the first time it reminded me of Beck. Keep up the great work

[papuza]

thanks man, but Jeff Beck is not an influence of mine at all... I like Vinnie Moore, Brett Garsed, Greg howe, Steve Lukather.... cheers! Silvio G.

[mohyhardcor]

awesome man great tone keep it up

[papuza]

thanks!

[guitarfreak2515]

I know your a great player and i am a huge huge fan but iwas diapponted in your playing and your sound and i really hated you put a little ad to buy your dvds thats very unprofessional and maybe alittle disrespectful to other contestants?

[papuza]

yeah, not my best playing and sound.. about the little title, well... I put it in all of my vids, I thought it was a cool way everybody knows my DVDs... cheers! Silvio G.

[guitarfreak2515]

Dont get me wrong i have been fan of your since the begining !Your a nice guy so dont take it wrong my friend!

[S3bz3r0]

your playing has just his special sound in this video, nothing wrong in my opinion

[kgtbest]

this is incredible just like me looks like your a victim of someone messing with your ratings I'm giving you five you are a legend man from KG

[anbuwolff]

dude with the stuff you do, i believe the whole world should know your name, this is amazing.

[ChaiVat]

Very nice playing. Well put together and some very nice technique.

[bardukk88]

muy llevadera y pegadiza!!! sos un groso total silvioi!!

[Miiownzu]

Could you give some advice for a noob guitarist? I just started playing recently and can play a few scales and chords and some songs but nothing major. If you could help me out that would be great. Btw, great playing!

[TheChegster]

If you can't play something major then you should try minor or 7th. just joking

[SlayermanGR]

Great job Silvio!

I was always fond of your very fluid playing and your inspiring phraseology and I am glad I can see them in this video too! :)

Keep it up like that mate!

[vladguitar]

Great entry,Silvio...It's not a first time I see you-really like your playing...Excellent job...

[guitarjakku]

This is amazing Silvio. It was great to watch you live at LIMS! An all round excellent player mate!

[papuza]

thanks Jack... your entry is great too! very nice tapping technique... cheers! Silvio G.

[Kjutte1]

A bit sloppy execution of speed, but incredible phrasing man.. mindblowing. I love your bends and vibrato, SO much feeling!!! Stunning!

[papuza]

thanks, what you say about my speed execution maybe is because of my lead sound, it´s a bit out of gain...

[Kjutte1]

lack of gain doesn't result in lost notes :)

Either way, speed is overrated and this is great stuff!

[papuza]

thanks anyway, but if you wanna see me playing at speed check out my others vids...

[Kjutte1]

I have. :)

[papuza]

cool, thanks!

[sweep9090]

[papuza]

[papuza]

Nice work,my friend!!! Good luck!

[robibm2003]

The next sound you hear should be the guys in Steely Dan asking you to play with them. Exceedingly tasty stuff.

[sandmantreefitty]

Incredible!

[2minutestomammoth]

He'll definitely win, he has that really nice feel that I wish I could have.

the only way that my guitar can sound fitting is if it's heavier metal than I even like.

Good luck!!

[panelacosmica]
