[jipak93]

Hey Tomo! Loved your lessons on guitar world lick of the day!

Also, Greg Howe is amazing!

[MrKev222]

Nice

[RobDZeppelin]

Everyone in the comments were talking about the hair band but i thought it was some argument about 80s hair bands

[DiabolusEnGuitar]

i dont want to hear any more bullshit about hair-band muting=cheating after seeing this. i will always refer to this vid when i hear "hair-band blah blah blah cheating blah blah" tell it to the master of fusion greg howe....

[Despond]

Greg has his own planet and it's one special planet. I just find him such a consistent player and also unique - which is hard ot be in fusion.

[delecroix2]

What's the title of the song that Greg Howe jamming to?

It's really funky.

[dennoow]

@delecroix2 Acute, it's on GH's "fives" album.

[synesthesia67]

i just cant believe these big players like greg and govan are using those rubber things, i think its shameful.

[bluntobjct]

are you talking about the capo's?

if so, your proposition is kinda stupid, no matter what skills you have on the guitar, you can use a capo for all kind of reasons.

and none have to incline a weak playing ability.

[gunfart]

its not a capo. its a muting assist rubber thing.

[bluntobjct]

never heard of these, any ideas on what they are called?

[gunfart]

dunno but ive seen guthrie use one including others its cheating, y cant they just mute good?

[dennoow]

haha with Greg it's calles a "hair band" ;) it is! I watched him on a clinic and it was a bit worn out. It has nothing to do with cheating btw, they can play wihout it but with those intensive tapping runs you might want to have as little side noise as possible, which is what it does. So borrow one from your girlfriend and try it, it reall helps!

[TheDistortionist]

Playing guitar isn't a competiton or a game. How can someone cheat, anyway?

[dennoow]

excellent point! I'm going to use that one. All it does is making sure we can enjoy his playing even more!

[CarlosCepinha]

@dennoow I started doing that after whatching his videos on youtube xD

[idpmofo]

this is LIVE. no re-dos nor copy/paste with ProTools. If he wants to use it, who cares? He sounds great. How is it cheating? Is using an amp or a pick cheating? Are Open tunings cheating?

[gunfart]

tuning ur strings differently isnt a technique

[gunfart]

hair tie

[KataVideo]

meh. not cheating

[Shogun777]

[Shogun777]

[madeofflesh]

Thanks for posting this video Tomo!

[Lahed92801]

Greg is absolutely AMAZING. So outside, and still so lyrical. He has that rare ability to be both angular AND sweet.

[nenad1974]

Looks like Greg has not completely abandonned his MK50.

[Kyoshi322]
