[saintjason]

You play like Warren Haynes.

[12kirkhinrich12]

Great backing track :bd . Where can I get it?

[HollyGS]

GREAT, GREAT, GREAAAAAT! :) i love it! i love your style, the guitar, and your cat! :) keep goin'

[fendafred]

Awesome, what else?

[fendafred]

Awsome, what else?

[thspamed]

I spied your steve vai in there ;D

[UrSkulled]

I think that was a dog he picked up.

[sublime88sublime]

you should have had the cat play bongos!

[mjrfreeman]

guitar ugly but marshall still behind it :D sound's really good to me even on humbucker

[kinggambitabc]

at 3:33 it looks like a lick from For the love of god by Steve Vai

[krokus65]

Hi. Can you give me the backingtrack on this one?. krokus65

[krokus65]

Hi. Can you give me the backingtrack on this one?

[IhateJohnMayer]

the cat does NOT give a f**k #LOL

[CedricIII]

@IhateJohnMayer Unfortunately the cat named "Marie" has gone away somewhere... she hasn't been home for over a month now, maybe the fox or an eagle took her, I don't know.

[IhateJohnMayer]

@CedricIII Sorry to hear that. That looked like an awesome cat

[CedricIII]

@IhateJohnMayer Yeah, she was, but in the end she was an old angry hag...

Well, we still got her son here and two other kittens, lets see if I can make them join me for a little jam session sometime... this room has a door you know, so if I increase the volume enough, then maybe they start to run as hell on the walls... LOL

[IhateJohnMayer]

@CedricIII Sorry to hear that, she looked like an awesome cat.

[conor1148]

i love how the cat is like "Fuck you im going home!"

[sergeramic]

OH there'sa a cat listening to you!

[2krzychu3]

BEER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Kriegermaus]

awesome improv!

if i could find that 5 stars thing i would rate it :)

[Kriegermaus]

dont lie.. thats your guitar!

[WillieDrew2009]

You absolutely deserve a whole lot better guitar for this kind of playing. Don't get me wrong, the Squier Hello Kitty Strat is great, but it would have been a pretty awesome gift for your girlfriend, and you go out there to get yourself a decent Fender or Squier Stratocaster! Nice riffs anyway!!!

[arcainjust]

EVEN WITH THE PINK KITTY GUITAR AND THE LEGO *like* SHIRT..this i just MADE of awesomeness and manliness :P hahahahahahha you rock man..you RoCk

[mattpaname]

Really really cool!

[kobaltronics]

Wow you rule !

[MauroPavanelli]

Lego T shirt and Hello Kitty guitars are made for child but your playing is realy mature! Wonderful groove and feeling bud! I love to see it! Congratulations!

[BillGtrMan]

See you showed 100% proof run anything through a good Marshall tube amp with a v good player (yourself) and the tone/sounds are awesome! GR8 job!

[ZenDeividdo]

funny how it sounds like porno music... especially 'cause it's being played on a hello "kitty" guitar

[jonslick]

my friend has a hello kitty and he never stops talkin about it but you had some realy nice runs on the hkg

[GuitarJaeger50]

Whether intentional or not, you prove an excellent point here. When most folks say Squier, the next thing outta their mouth is, "good beginner guitar". You are proof that its all in who's holding it. Most people let their egos buy way more guitar than they'll ever learn how to use.

[tobisha]

wow..thats awesome..teach my older brother how to play, the only thing he knows is the meow mix theme..lol..

[Velcrix]

You gotta teach me dude

[aftermath0001]

Hello Kitty rocks !

[drone713]

Dude you're incredible

[alldham]

Manly.

[krokus65]

Grymt mannen

[theajbesum]

i think the animals liked it hahaha

[theajbesum]

SKITBRA =D

[willyboogerblues]

Good Jam

[mrchristmas]

Absolutely sick.

[Ozzieoscar30]

Cool Lickssssa. Love the Cat. I would love to here more from the Cat, Maybe the cat could play ryth'm

[NowHereThisRocks]

Awesome! Only a dad would be able to pull this off! :-)

(kinda like when I walked down the street carrying a Dora the Explorer backpack.... haha)

Chris

[NowHereThisRocks]

you know... only cooler.... haha

[BigORat]

Damn, you a bad mo-fo.

[ugotpimp]

[GuitarmanMo]

[CedricIII]

You're absolutely right, I'm a child inside this old ugly body! lol

Thanks!

[GuitarmanMo]

haha good job. wud ya mind checkin out my vids? they're under the user name thepumpdontwork :) i'd love some comments and ratings plz :)

[reissue]

Great playing. I bought the HK Strat recently, a decent axe. One piece maple neck, ready to go out of the box. Of course this guy has chops to make anything sound great. Good shit here Cedric.

[CedricIII]

Thanks mate!

[Glasyeur0]

ahahah the cat

[ajgators]

fantastic playing man.

[otasty]

You guys are rude. Have you checked out his other videos? Especially the JCM800 one?

[CedricIII]

Thanks man, but I don't care about bad comments, It's actually pretty funny reading them! LOL

Rock On!

[CedricIII]

Thanks, loverboy!

[buckster7777]

you rule, dude!

nice playing, I am laughing my ass off because of trying to play while holding the cat...he didn't like it. :)

[guitartrix1]

Please! Please! do another vid for Hello kitty and get that shirt! thats awesome!!! please!

[Wibergot]

hello doggy lol :D

[CedricIII]

Doggy says hi!! ;)

[robrampy]

no ofense dude your playing is awsome .but one thing you have to realise .its you are how old 45? 47?almost 50? it looks like you are this little kinder garden boy.wearing that lego shirt.and a hello shitty guitar man !!grow up!!get yourself a decent guitar!

[CedricIII]

You must be joking, right?

[robrampy]

what ? are not you a great guitar player?yes you are .its just that you look ridicoulous playing that crap ass guitar .along with that lego shirt .

[CedricIII]

Haha, I've got other guitars too...

Hmmm... I really have to make another Hello Kitty guitar video... now where's that t-shirt! ;)

[CedricIII]

Get a life.

[LedDaveZeppelin]

Give me lessons?

[CedricIII]

No, I don't have the skills to teach, but If you come over, I'll give you a beer! ;)

[gibsongod15]

i have one and im changing the saddles, neck, tuners, and electronics. then it should play amazingly. im putting a dimarzio in with a 500k volume pot and new jack, warmoth scalloped stainless steel fretted neck, spertzel tuners and graphtech saddles. anyone know what else i can change haha besides the body

[reddracken]

drill a hole in the body and put a gain boost switch too! i recommend either a emg pa2 or ab (afterburner)

[gibsongod15]

yeah that would be cool should i put an EMG in it then?

[Ozeshin]

The cat did a better job when it was his turn....j/k :p

[QueMeVezWei]

The cat xD! jajaja

good video! 5 ztarz

[spatchycat]

hell yea rock on...it looks lik it is daddys guitar not daughters lol

[Rozq87]

wow amazing, do you achieve all your tones with pod xt live??

cheers

[reinapepiada92]

good XD

[brampy]

thats surprisingly good tone from that shit guitar. i guess its the player! haha. good job

[CedricIII]

Well, I don't think it's a bad guitar at all. I was very surprised the first time I played it. Perhaps I was lucky finding a good copy... don't know.

But it's definately not a shit guitar.

Of course, knowing how to play makes it easier to get away with a cheap guitar...

Thanks!

[JoaoJMatias]

doggy wants kitty xD

Btw man, you ROCK! 5 stars!

[CedricIII]

Thanks m8!

[nirvanamario]

yeah right you doughter's uhu mmm i get it :P

[Dihnekis]

Dude you fucking rock. And I thought the cat was fake until you picked it up.

[yakta81]

So nice very good job

[tacocookie18]

nice, i'd like to see what you can do on a better guitar like a schecter or something

[ArtuRider]

really cool, please don't kill your other guitars like this lol... where did you get the backing track?

[Neclord2000]

That was the most awesomess thing ive ever seen played on a Hello Kitty Strat.

[Ninjanguyen]

Woah, goods ounds with a slightly mediocre guitar. Great improv!

Love the pets. XD

[kyuuketsukiblood]

i need jazz cords/tabs got any you can share ?

[CedricIII]

Sorry, I don't use tabs.

[JoaoJMatias]

try ultimate guitar

[SRV1DOORS1HENDRIX1]

nice ego t-shirt dude.not making fun or anything but what made you buy this??

[CedricIII]

Bought the t-shirt 17 years ago... thought it looked funny.

I was a bit more EGO then too so it suited me perfectly...

[1337357G4M3R]

Best impro ive ever seen on youtube. Good work man. You own.

[anton9108]

holy shit! you killed that guitar :D

really one of the most impressive improvs on youtube!

[CedricIII]

Nah... it's still alive and kickin'...

Thanks, pal! ♫

[PepinoMichoacan]

Dude! great funky sweeping on a pink guitar wearing a "LEGO" like t shirt xD You're one of my heros now :p

[CedricIII]

Cool!

[MauroArzu]

what equipment do you use ?

[highoffyou]

haha a grown man with a lego shirt playing a hello kitty guitar (: pretty good solo

[CedricIII]

Yeah, isn't it pathetic? Hahaha! But the shirt doesn't say "LEGO"...

[RandomDota]

it says EGO aye i laugh at that mm ^ ^

[SonyGhozt12]

Lego!

[tripleA17]

That's awesome !

[oldGNRfan23]

LOVE IT. Great chops and I love the guitar. who makes it...Gibson or Fender? JK. You are man enough to play a Hello Kitty guitar. you are a true musician. love the phasing. MAD CHOPS. KEEP ON ROCKING MAN!

[AntiOwnage]

Actually funnily enough it kind of is made by Fender :P

[andreabubus]

Hey around 3'33 is a lick from Vai's Love of god? ;)

[CedricIII]

Hehehe, yeah. But not so well performed unfortunately... But that's improvisation and I just play whatever comes on my mind then. Sometimes good and sometimes bad.

Thanks for watching!

[andreabubus]

Well youre better guitarist than i am so i respect you, even is real perhaps in the end you was less concentrated but i like the feel and the sound, very good, long improvvisation, nice cat, in the beginning i thought it was false because was like a statue!

I liked the vai idea!

[andreabubus]

Ps also around 2'00" sounds to me quite "vaysh" ;)

[michael16862]

I love this video. It probably has something to do with the awesome funky music and the cat and that guitar. I think I'm gonna buy one of those lmfao

[MyArtSongs]

Your daughter should be proud !!!

Coolest I've seen or heard in a long time !!!

[123jozef]

good thing you can play...

[guttyxx]

I'm waiting for your daughter to come in all: "Daddy, what are you doing with my guitar?!" That would be funny as hell ;'D

[tchimmerroks]

The real kitty in the video w/the Hello Kitty guitar is pretty funny. She's sitting right in front of the amp too. Most cats would be like, "I don't dig riffs right in my ear".

[TehGreatestNinja]

Haha nice! Watching this makes me wanna buy one of those... xD

[wicho661]

KITTYYYY!

[CedricIII]

Meeoouuww!

[CedricIII]

Located? ½ hour south from Stockholm, Sweden.

Thanks! :)

[gdog1919eternal]

nice improv man.....where are u located?I got some mixes for you

Great job,hope to hear from you

[CedricIII]

7-eleven? Yeah, I've got about 30 miles to the "local" store, so I'll take a walk over there, see you in a couple of years! Hahaha! ;)

[CedricIII]

No, it's a shitty cheap beer called "Sofiero".

Don't know about Bawls...

[dymatrixnz]

Im this close to ripping this for my mp3 player :p

[Toerix]

Fuck! It's amazing! Keep "rockin"! :D

[TKbrands17]

with what program did you make the backing music? garageband? sorry i watched you video for the 7th time now. i listen it 24/7. what guitar do you play normally?

[CedricIII]

I didn't make the BT myself, I downloaded it from somewhere, can't remember where.

I can't imagine someone watching the video seven times, I can't even watch it for twenty seconds! *lol*

But you know how it is to watch yourself??

I don't play just one guitar, I love all my guitars and they are good in their own ways, in different kind of music and styles. Maybe a Line6 Variax could do the trick, but there's more to it than just the sound... the feel man, the feel!

Thanks for watching! ♫

[LostandShottoDeath]

Your cat is awsome.

Your skills on guitar also.

[TKbrands17]

ever played on stage? you should! what a fantastic style on such a miserable guitar! :D

greetz from Holland

[CedricIII]

Yes, many many times!

Thanks a lot!

[Pintoguitar1]

Cool man !

[brampy]

was the start a pepsi ad?

[inricheetos]

Yeah I just noticed that product placement. Product placement ruining society in the 21th century.

[JConsul]

No, that is the swedish beer "Sofiero" -famous for it's low price and bad taste.

And this is Fredric - famous for his cool improvisations and bad taste in beer.

[JConsul]

dam*it, this was an answer to brampy below.

[Raptor8990]

You are great...

[AlohaVideography]

NICE! very..! How can I get my Hello Kitty guitar to stay in tune PLEASE?! I'm begginer player..but have a good ear.

Gary

[CedricIII]

Try this:

1st, attach the strings to the tuners properly. There are several ways this could be done. I use a method where the string locks itself. Search google for explainations.

Then you can take a pen and scrape off some graphite into the "tracks" of the nut. This is for lubrication which will minimize the risk of the string getting stuck there.

If you do those two things you shouldn't get tuning problems, unless your Hello Kitty has bad tuners.

Thanks for watching!

/F

[platinumguitar]

i just love this improvisation i dont know why ^^just do. peace fredric

[CedricIII]

Well, I have done better improvisations, but I was really having a good time here. I was all alone that weekend, had a few beers...

Maybe that shines through? My good mood?

Peace! /F

[Taekwondofighter91]

Oh man this is very funny man xD A Hello Kitty guitar xD.

[MikaelLilienthal]

Very very tasteful

good stuff

[Dzilberto]

Nice playing and guitar,keep it going. :D

[kemuksigak]

that kitty loves the music, most of the time that kind of bends would have a cat going insane. but you did a good job of making a very pleasing sounding improv

[mrzeegrr]

You've got skills. I have a son who shreds. If you have a chance, check out "Random acts of kindness" videos on my humble little channel. Keep playing. You're good.

[mrzeegrr]

Sweet jam. Kitty ok?

[CedricIII]

yeah, they both are! ;)

[moviecatninja]

poor cat :o

[CedricIII]

Yeah, I know... she's more into blues music actually... ;)

[allarounddork]

haha is that a real cat in the background?

[CedricIII]

Yeah, of course! Her name is Marie and if you watch the whole movie you'll see that she's alive... ;)
