  • Rod did you make that guitar, where do you get those guitars?

  • THERE WILL BE A NEW MAKE WILL ROCK

    WAIT AND SEE AND WILL BE CHEAPER

  • ffuuucckkkiinnngg awesome!!!

  • That can't have much sustain

  • much, much more than any wood guitar!

  • @ruttman15 the music would suggest something different.

  • WTF!!!!! ilove ur guitar dude!!!!! rely... i rely love it hahahah!!!

  • That's a sick axe!!! What kind is it?

  • thats a Handle guitar, all carbon fiber, made by

    XOX Audio Tools

  • Fantastic : )

  • What brand of guitar is that?

  • Ha it must be so fun playing that!

  • AAAAAAHH!!!WONDERFUL :-D

  • This is damn sick..

    for the first "part" some parts sound like The Test That Stumped Them All from Dream Theater, just awesome. lovely sick guitar solos are just the life :)

  • Nice, and one sick guitar :0

  • Wow you're amazing !! I really enjoy listen you playing.

  • Dude, you're awesome!

  • Having been a 80s metal guitarist myself in bar bands ive listened to the best over the years Macalpine Lynch Vai Schenker Moore (both gary and vinnie!) ive been hard pressed to name anyone the best hell i got to see a unknown player by the name of Doug Doppler who was touring with MSG he did the drum machine thing like gary hoey but hes the guy that Satch chose to take over his music school this guy is a 7 string god! Google doppler inc its fucking incredable!

  • Excellent work!!!!Thank you very much!!!!!!!!!!

  • Enormément de talent....Félicitations

  • dude i wish i could play like that...your as good or better than joe satriany

  • he´s very good no doubt, but noone is better than satriani!

    there are even only few who are equally to him like steve vai or john petrucci

  • john petrucci isn't even close to steve vai...i like his music but only steve vai is as good as satriani!

  • hm i don´t think so.. for me vai and satriani can be compared much better because the one learned from the other. in cases of virtuosity the two seem to exceed petrucci, but! do you know " an evening with john petrucci and jordan rudess" ? there he proves all his skills wich he probably can´t show with dream theater..

  • ..yeah and when it comes about songwriting i think petrucci is the most talented, because he creates catchy music with (compared to vai or sartiani) less efford. Also i like almost everything of petruccis music but not all of vais or satrianis. but this is only my personal taste..

  • oh no...i like petruccis music more too...especially Jaws of Life...but Vai and Satriani are better...altough they have diffrent styles. so...yeah i will see that night with jordan rudess...

    thanks...

  • Comment removed

  • ew, i dont think so. Paul Gilbert wins no matter what (exception: if emotion counts in the competition, Jason Becker wins)

  • paul gilbert is never better than petrucci, vai or satriani! and who the hell is Jason Becker?^^ ... no, but when it comes about emotion.. listened to pink floyd ? david gilmour has superawesome feeling in his playing!

  • pink floyd? thats the best you can come up with? if you would, listen to altitudes by jason becker (4:31 i think) or Serrana if you're very impatient (less than a minute)

    i dont see how you listen to satriani's trailer metal, and vai/ petrucci are so up their own asses, i dont know why they arent just making albums for themselves

  • You just dissed 3 of the greatest guitarists in the world your opinion of them sucks if you ask me Vais a god Satch shreds and Petrucci is a very awesome player as well it just kils me when some nobody on you tube talks shit about accomplished legendary players .

  • Back to why i came thanks for the friend request Rod love your playing style some really nice fierce licks!

  • oh as if anyone else on earth can play like Paul Gilbert. Not to mention the infamous Jason Becker, who's works have been covered a handful of times.

  • i listened to altitudes.. i think emotion isn´t something measurable like on a scale from 1 to 10.. it´s again a matter of taste. he plays with a lot of emotion, no doubt.. but i still prefer to listen to petruccis music and for me he sometimes is as emotional as becker(if not even more). petrucci sometimes has not much feeling, i agree

    do you know "an evening with john petrucci and jordan rudess" ? listen to the song truth for example the last solo (begins about 8:00)

    and tell me your opinion

  • pretty good. Your speed is incredible, and your timing is right on!!!

  • Sweet licks, man, love your sound. And what an axe!! Crazy-looking thing! Looks like a weird cross between a Telecaster and a thin Les Paul. Is it me or is the neck really wide? I thought it was a 7-string at first, but I can only see 6 machine heads on the headstock. Cheers from Montreal.
