Daniel Owen Fast Guitar shredding and 8 finger tapping

[skarmark1]

0:54

[jakethesnake979]

Where did my face go?

[1251wire]

You know in those tv specials about magic, like david blane or something?

There's always a dude in the audience that gets really scared at an impossible magic trick and kinda hesitates but wants to take off running, because lack of comprehension really scared him witless?

That is me right now.

You sir are in cahoots with forces we do not or perhaps are not meant to understand.

Thank you.

[Craigomyeggo]

And all of a sudden, I came to the conclusion that I really need to practice more.

[anakid123]

Amazing technique! Definitely made an impression on me.

[jrod776699]

still blows my mind everytime i watch!!!!

[hypershadow015]

I'm sure hes not supposed to be human. SERIOUSLY. he deserves the title of 'some kind of awesome inter-dimensional cyber guitarist' or something.... hes insane! :O

[NickSandt]

This is remarkable Daniel.

-Nick

[supremetit]

tapping at end was pretty cool

[LinkinPk1fan]

damn dude...that 8 finger tapping riff made me shit my pants (in a good way) xD

[KRISSEEEEEEEEEE]

00:52-01:05 probably the best thing i've ever heard

[kordun1111]

W.T.F.?

[andrew6string]

man that's incredibly fast! what type of picks do you use? do you angle it much when you pick? thanks for posting.

[guitarbeast1944]

hello chuck....i know it's you...

[Ted443]

Mario? lol jk you are extremely fast!

[kylereece1979]

As the majority of people here have already emphatically stated, all I can do is agree with the comments about the part from 0.55-1.05.

Iv'e no idea how, or what you are playing there man, but it is incredible. it reminds me of classic video game tunes, or something,- a totally insane piece of music, that , Id love to see you show us how thats done in slow motion, or even tab it.

Iv'e showd this vid to friends who play guitar, and they're blown away- those otherworldly sounds are amazing!

[r1skate]

It sounds alot like Killer Of Giants THE live solo! The crazy parts are the sweeps. Frank Gambale would be looking at those with his jaw on the floor :-)

[TheSuperMarioBros2]

insane drift at the end!

[modellof23]

i think this is chuck norris playng guitar!!!!!!

[TheSuperMarioBros2]

i agree with u

[HjalmarGuitarMaster]

Hey Dan!

How are you playing that cool tapping lick at the end?

[TrippyTro]

LUDICROUS SPEED!

[imthecrossfyrekid]

this guy is yngwie malmsteen's worst nightmare,lol ive played for 20 years and when i see you play i just want to quit,lol

hi from canada Dan ,you seriously rock not like the so called worlds fastest picker on here,what a dumb ass with a clock even?

how hard is it to strum super fast on one string with no idea of scales or style?

8.5 million fools watched it,it sucked

[rgby3]

@imthecrossfyrekid retard hes been sponsored and all kinds of stuff hes not fake your fake, and gay.

[Gahgajgak]

it's like he's been playing guitar for so long that he's been playing since he was in his mothers womb

[guitargod1394]

its really fast, but can you actually play music?

[hotgsxr]

Check out his guitarpet ride video...that should answer your question.

[dragonman86]

@hotgsxr agreed, best song ever!

[ozzy9691]

yea search his magic carped ride video

[FloridaRockStar]

is he sweeping and tapping?

HOLY PENIS

[GNRslash28]

holy shit, how do you sweep like that?

[MawBTS]

0:54 is warp-speed Eruption

[Hezus3Christo]

lmao warp speed eruption... not like eruption was fast enough i think he just made that eruption into something much better lol cuz that tapping lick at 0:54 is insane

[munruthel1]

Wow, super crazy!

[BTeeper]

those are some fucking crazy arpeggios

[cjdabes]

i like the diminished parts....your incredibly fast man =P

[chiefbigbeef52]

[lonnyp1]

this guy is an alien. thats why he doesnt show his face. there is no way a human can be that fast!!!

[redhotminipepper]

****

[SugarKicks]

i wonder if this guy if faster then malmsteen :O

[datguitarguy]

are u kidding?

this guy could shred circles around yngwie

[MawBTS]

It's hard to say. I definitely think he goes faster on his sweeps than Malmsteen.

[Bytorsdog]

Playing like that is a gift from God, you have it or you don't. It can't be taught or learned without the gift. Dude, you are one of the greatest players I've ever seen.

[SoullessOpeth]

Why you're not in a band???? why you're not making history in a metal music????

[ogame73]

you are awsome

Teach me???

[thynhardz07]

[jakekearns123]

[rage54956]

Van halen is nothing compared to this guy. He's more like the next Paul Gilbert.

[AchooZor]

Even Paul Gilbert is nothing compared to this guy Oo

[federz666]

ooooh that tapping was fucking sweet!!!!!

[phuKKah]

I can't go on playing guitar anymore.

I can't sweep anywhere near like he does.

[Zeyta000]

Don't worry PhuKKah, not many can ;P

[ultimateguitar553]

Uhhhh, how long does this guy practice for??

[jtseeyouthere]

[jtseeyouthere]

[RoofFiddler]

[MrSpoonman]

Now this is some good shit. It is good that this is actually real shit this time.

[sanchexalex]

[quishaluvsrob14]

nice!!!

[Fathomlessportals]

Dude... Amazing. That kicks rusty cooley's ass any day!

[JLMendo]

0:54 seg hasta 1:07 min NIIIICE

[Infinitesimalism]

Anybody that thinks Herman Li could match this guy's technicality should be thrown down a flight of stairs with their pants down around their ankles, then when their dilapidated body is prostrated with their ass in the air, Satan makes a cameo appearance and sodomizes their ASS with a rough-hewn cross.

[sanchexalex]

who said herman ri could face this guy??? jesus he's an idiot. hermans good, but fuck this guy is the cleanest AND the fastest in the fuckin' world, and to be honest, even I can reach hermans level, and I've been playing for 2 1/2 years now. *.*

[Vexus666]

I believe that. I know kids who've been playing for 3 months who have better dexterity on the frets than I do and I've been playing for 3 years.

[sssdfrfwrgr]

this guy is way faster than li.

[lordifrit69]

damn right, fuck!

[chasec718]

people think herman li is so awesome becasue of freaking guitar hero

[InsatiableBlonde]

I'm catching trails from your fingers,,,,I'm leaving now,,,,

5+

[xxzerocoolxx47]

ok this guy is amazing but why do you keep referring to herman li he sucks. hes not good. Look up real guitarists like yngwie malmsteen, Jason Becker, Michael Angelo Batio. Not Herman Li.......

[aild5765]

you should be in dragonforce!!!!

check out skinnyjeans987

[Death101111]

who do you think would win in the moovie crossroads at the end battle, owen or one of the other 2 guitarists, or.. hermen lee?

[metalrocks13]

herman li play shitty at live concert. daniel owen wins at speed and skills herman li just win at his famous

[angga702]

WHY ARNT YOU FAMOUS BUT HERMAN LI IS, THIS WORLD IS NOT FAIR lol

[lorden98]

Wow....

Why the hell is Herman Li in Dragonforce and You isn't??

Just... Wow...

[bjeasler]

wow all i got to sa

[shmools11]

i dont think im worthy to hold a guitar

[jimhiltz117]

that was the coolest sounding tapping riff EVER!!!

[dimerestinpeace]

dont think that you are god. but you have a lot of skills

[stiiii]

tab?

(joke)

[igordonamos]

Haha, nice! I felt some neoclassical influence.. LOved the BAD BOYS in the end! Keep on rockin'

[miglspam]

*jaw drops*

*decides to sell guitar in shame*

[marvelousedd85]

heh you make dragonforce look (even more) like little girls

[nomis101uk]

bit at :54 was musically much better than the rest. That was cool

[JBJBJB01]

Imagine walking into a guitar shop and playing that, and then casually walking back out. :-D

[jimhiltz117]

every1 would just stop what they were doing, their jaws would drop, they would stand perfectly still, and think "Holy ..... shit". Then they would leave cuz they know they will never be able to play like that. Thats how it would turn out in my mind lol.

[gotnoodle]

then the world would end cause he is insanly good, ive been to a gig like that a band i know played and the crowed just stopped moshing and where like "dear god!"

[oeconomonster]

man yo just have to make music and i mean good music and you' l be so fucking famous and great

[martymustaine]

ok.. see u on guitar one soon dude.

[AUSTlNtheGREAT]

ibanez all day

[zakkah93]

You are inhuman! You are the most talented human on this planet

[Bambi32D]

If you make it musical, then youd be a god!

[TheLoner1987]

[canttouchthis1818]

[akathasamurai]

Yngwie says what?!!!

[seth3556r]

Great guitar! I have one of those in black, but I put a DiMarzio X2N in the bridge and a DiMarzio Tone Zone in the neck. And sounds like a guitar built in Heaven. A total shred master axe.

[Tayshaun100]
