Anton Tsygankov: the centaur

[orbthesela]

My best friend told me to check this out because Anton came to the school she teaches at to talk to the children. I'm glad I did indeed have a look as Anton reminds me very much of Stevie Vai who I grew up on and there's very few people who have the discipline to do this anymore.

[LimeBall]

damn, you're good

[iannain]

Yeah

you rock

[sharpclay]

Excellent work Anton! You Rock!!!!

[laylasheleh]

well done, keep on playing, have you seen billy pezzack?

[Modes9]

He plays well...but there's nothing original or compelling about it. Let's be honest...Steve Vai, Tony MacAlpine, and Vinnie Moore were doing this twenty years ago. On the other hand, we should offer some encouragement because it sure beats rap and boy bands!

[aaronmakowski]

yeah but you see, you cant really be all that original, even 20 years ago you couldnt, without sounding extreme jazz or sounding really bad

[jimrox9000]

I think you still can but I agree with modes 9

[insano2]

great tone!

whats the gear?

[cookiemonster0626]

u rock

GO RUSSIA ! ! ! !

[Voiceguitar]

I really liked how you incorperated some exotice sounds here and there... VERY cool at 2:17 ish

[Dethragos]

nice man, can just imagine what youd be on a vai or petrucci like setup!

[report1138]

OMG!! ... good  XD

[etd1tmo]

Anton - it has been a couple years. Glad to see your music is thriving. You bought a USA Ibanez from me off E-Bay back in 2004 - I still have your original recordings. Please get in touch if you can - would like to hear from you.

[paulywaly22]

awome man good job!!!come to the states and thrrow down witha real band  about anyone would sign you

[gnarlyforeheadworf]

awesome!

how do you get such a good recording?

[radosipka64]

Hey dude its really nica to hear you - althought I play since 1976 and have finished 15 years of classic and flamenco guitar, I play for last 15 years rock and still try to make love with my guitar (sometimes , your way of sound is one of the best I've heard. your attitude to harmony makes me very happy have a good fun yours sincerely Rado from Slovakia

[MkrtichSudzhian]

Anton! My boy!

My former student...

I'm so glad to see you here:) You know, It's very hard to say but, Your supreme improvisation and lightning' speed technique is far beyond my fart old capabilities. And so I'm compelled to recognize that I've lost the battle. You kick some serious Armenian ass!

Thank you so very much!

Anton! I beg you! Please, become my master!

Sincerely yours,

Former teacher Mkrtich Sydzhian.

P.S. We're all here in Armenia waitn' for your reply!

[Juandisimo]

Looks like a rock samurai

[bbking812]

nice harmonics~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~­~~~~~~~~~

[lanemergess]

Way to dig in with the pick, and maintain that groove. Excellent legato, tapping, bends, and sweeps. Great blend of this in the piece. A.P.B.@ Sick Licks

[gunsnrosesadam]

m8 that is well good nice harmonics all the way till the end

[christopher0310]

pretty good. it flows great. all the volume was the same so at the beginning i thought u were faking it. but its good.

[uknowyouaddicted]

awesome man dont listen to 113076190 not everyone can do that

[113076190]

dude,use another tonality cause it sounds as the same old rock and commonplace...and sorry but,every guitar player can do that!

[nisselinkan]

113076190 ur just being an ass i guess u never touched a guitar!

[billmeedog]

I think 113076190 is both, an ASS who never touched a guitar! He certainly has NO RIGHT saying "everyone can do that." That is without a doubt one of the most ignorant and short-sighted things I've read! Dumbass! Not only is Anton an INCREDIBLE technician, but his tone (although a bit dry) is very articulate and full, and his ideas (like Arkadiy Starodoub's) are UNIQUE. You don't usually find a lot of originality amongst shredders (IMO). Peace!

[radosipka64]

hi, I can't agree with your idea that all guitar player can do it. but they should be able to do it, but it's another question. and you are a happy guy! see ya

[113076190]

what do you want actually?I`m playing for pleasure and everything that I made is unseriously,just like that I`ve been recorded all ot my videos...but just know-I can play!!!

[LeecH999]

[doingyallafavor]

[topperspoppers]

[doingyallafavor]

no vtmb2003 has nothing better! the 80's died with those licks? ok, so you're saying to be original? then don't play guitar, create a new instrument that has never been before, and play it! but then you'll be stuck playing music, how original is that?!!! you're a fuckin' nobody vtmb2003, just making stupid comments that bite you in the ass, moron!!!!!!!!!!!

[pepegova]

he isnt really playing blues in this clip-this is more shredding/rock.
