The Best Guitarist in The World

[ChuckNorrisAltaaa]

if you think this is good you've never seen tom ward

[daldantas]

He is very good indeed, but not the best in the world!

>> Vicki Genfan or Yamandú Costa Can BE! <<

[664804]

Yo toco igual !!!!

[GeorgeFKirk]

Incredible talent and beautiful playing. Inspiring.

[31musicfreak]

He may not be the best in the world,but damn his skills made me watch this 4 times!Splendid performance:D

[MrJerkoffkid]

Tommy Emmanuel....

[amkboxer]

Meh

[UnderwhelmingPlywood]

He is really good, but no where near the best. There are plenty of guitarists that could pull that off.

[ELEANOR320TD]

And Paco De Lucía? The Master of the world ;)

[chandra3331]

Amazing guitarist

[hoaryhoary]

Recuerdos de la Alhambra: probably the most beautiful song ever written for classical guitar by my favorite composer, Tarrega.

[MrYoureAdouche]

I clicked on this video knowing full well this wasn't the best guitarist in the world. the "best guitarist in the world" is only an opinion, there's people out there that would consider kurt cobain the best (don't worry i'm not one of them)

BUT DAMN THIS MAN IS TALENTED.

[komball2]

Really nice performing but the master of the guitar is Tommy Emmanuel and etc ...

[Daytonajoe1]

Look up Julio Silpitucla Recuerdos de la Alhambra

[studiodeo]

On numara mı yoksa bir numara mı? :) Şaka bir yana bir yıllık öğrencilerim çalıyor bu şarkıları. Bu adamdan önce daha ne bir numaralar, on numaralar var... :)

[ferretbitme]

the bloke in the back ground is god .He's good too but is not playing all we hear

[Hommosimp]

I heard that he fingered a girl once, she died of too many orgasms.... tragic day indeed.....

[DIRTYZEK]

ehh



[Fahrenheit1407]

Every time I see a video with a title like "Best Guitarist in the World" I instantly click dislike because the uploader is obviously an idiot. That being said, he is a very good guitarist!

[bennyboi56]

hes a very good guitarist dont get me the wrong but its impossible to say whos the "best" guitarist in the world in my opinion because there are so many different guitarists who play all different styles of music so i belive you cant say one person is the best guitarist in the world

[paulyrulo1]

Exceptional technical ability yes....greatest guitarist....I dont think so....there is NO greatest guitarist....except maybe Wes Montgomery.

[sunnyjim98]

WAIT ONE GOD DAMNED SECOND!!!!!

THAT ISNT ME!!!!!!

[MrArmjoven]

Dude, did you guys see that? Mr Jim him self made a comment!!

[bransonguitar]

Thank you for saying I am the best. So many guitarist are great and play certain songs better than I do. My friends Tommy Emmanuel, George Benson, Chris Parkening and others, that I have played with, are the best as well. It is fun to see the comments such a video receives.

Jim Greeninger

[joeylodes]

Best bla bla bla. I'm so sick of that shit

[duccasto1]

you idiot, petrucci will never never play that stuff...., he simply cant do it ,,but hes great on his own stuff and on e- guitar...and pretty good on concert guitar,,but this man here is masterclass...,a fully other league than petrucci on classicl guitar...,,

[FeltBikes4eva]

John Petrucci is better

[mdtech2010]

THIS IS MA WEEEEEEEEED (=0=) :::3

[Jorgeenlaollaska]

he kind of looks like Van Gogh

[hillbillymanjackson]

wow. insane talant

[matt2eadgbe]

I started watching this 8 hours ago and just now woke up

[biggfingger5]

Christopher Parkening,Julian Bream.

[lahnee13]

i like mexican music

[MrDaveGregaz]

for all you know, this might be the only thing he knows how to play!

[bonolee07]

very boring imafraid

[TheEs379]

@bonolee07 Jacking off around the pentagon scale on the electric guitar is Boriiiiing!!!

[biggerbigd]

@TheEs379 By pentagon scale, do you mean pentatonic scale?

[TheEs379]

@biggerbigd HAHAHAHA Lol xD yeah! (I failed pretty hard) ;S

[biggerbigd]

@TheEs379 I figured you were joking. I went on to your channel and ended up spending half the night watching Julian Bream videos. Killer stuff.

[fukinu2ub]

Classical guitar is so far removed from any other kind of guitar playing that one cannot compare it to any other style. I'm not saying that any other style isn't enjoyable to listen to. but, it is a one end of the guitar playing spectrum. It is a physically different guitar. And I have yet to see one person master classical guitar and master the rest of the spectrum with the same skill.

[Fluffypopcicle]

Name of piece please. It sounds familiar.

[FlyingV344]

@Fluffypopcicle

name of this piece? watch the first 5 seconds........

[Fluffypopcicle]

@FlyingV344

My bad. I looked at the comments instead of the beginning of the vid :P

[FlyingV344]

@Fluffypopcicle

Even 22 sec. the piece is called Recuerdos de la Alhambra.

[usernamehehehaha]

Steve Vai and Yngwie Malmsteem would disagree

[fusoperso]

@usernamehehehaha Their are two clowns compared to him..

[usernamehehehaha]

@fusoperso Their is an adjective, which shows ownership to a group of people or things. I think you mean they're, which is a contraction for they are, but you still shouldn't say they're are; that's like saying they are are. English is hard.

[TJCJS1200]

@usernamehehehaha

3 different guitarists , 3 different styles , they all are good ;)

[usernamehehehaha]

@TJCJS1200 Correct!

[fusoperso]

@usernamehehehaha Sorry for my bad English. thanks for the correction.

[FlyingV344]

@usernamehehehaha

Steve and Yngwie both studied and play(ed) classical guitar......

[MyDUDE1997]

Beautiful ;)

[ADAMDUNKA]

There is not really a best guitarist, but only top ones, and this guy is not nearly close to the top ones... Try David Russell? Maybe?

[pinoixboi]

don't know why...but this kinda reminds me of the movie the Godfather lol

[Nanjayal]

Great playing! Your skill is amazing, man.

[berrypossum]

top e is flat. just joking great playing. I like a little more backbeat.

[KINGOFKINGS611]

thats amazing display of technique



[heyAngelUduhsexy2]

chuck norris could do that with one finger

[taketimeout2]

@heyAngelUduhsexy2

Chuck Norris has only got one finger.

Thats because everybody has taken the others over.

Leave him alone or he might donate to you his remaining finger...up your arse.

Chuck Norris is OK. This guy is fabulous.

And I dont even like Spanish music.

[TheSBoy3]

I'd like to see kids try and play that on guitar hero!!

[GOW624]

he's alright, not the best though. this guys much better: music starts at 1:03

watch?v=K2FP5VisnQI&feature=re­lated

and thats only one random video i picked of his...

[guitarman592000]

A "Standard" that is usually played by music students - a little Tremolo goes a long way.

Have a listen to some of David Russell's offerings for real tonal quality delivered with exceptional taste !!

[RADIOACTIVEBUNY]

Daaaaaaamn he's good.

[manfreeish]

the best of the world!!

[nolreved]

music like that needs to be played on a banjo!

[natelailg]

can't rate him as the best; many guitarists out there can do the same. great performance though!

[jawadeelibox]

Vincent van Gogh on guitar???

[betoritter]

Check this guy /watch?v=6JY4-eDGgA0

[danies696]

that´s the best Recuerdos de la alhambra performance !!! but the best guitar classical player is rusell....

[Tucod6]

Better than Jimmy Hendrix? No way.

[Buttanick]

@Tucod6 Jimi's technique was awful. He was not a good guitarist. But what made him amazing was his perfomances. The atmosphere, the soul and the overall feeling was astonishing.

[swanski100]

@Buttanick i have to disagree. His playing on songs like Bold As Love and castles made of sand is great, live or studio.

[Buttanick]

@swanski100 Maybe so, but he is not technically advanced in his playing. His style is interesting, but not advanced.

[norcalx360repair]

@Buttanick Technical doesn't mean good or the best to me anyways...I may be on my own IDK. Title should say some thing like classically trained guitar player tears it up because he is killing it no matter what kind of music you like. :)

[Bayo106]

@Buttanick WRONG! jimi hendrix '''technique''' was awful but his TECHNIQUE was excellent. lol how can you say jimi wasnt a good guitarist are you better than he was lolol

[stephen25uk]

Wonderfully well played but why? This is such an overplayed, frankly worn-out piece. Skilled instrumentalists like this should really find something more original and interesting to play.

[igniz969]

SE LA RIFA

[latinsatch]

Dejen de decir "el mejor". No hay tal cosa. Solo hay guitaristas muy talentosos y virtuosos en todos los diferentes estilos. Éste guitarista es muy bueno. Es de primera clase.

[jokerfangwolf]

@latinsatch bien dicho!

[latinsatch]

There is no such thing as "the best guitarist", but this guy is amazing. He's really talented and a class "A" classical guitarist!!!!

As a guitarist my self, i respect him.

[josemanuel599]

@latinsatch Yes. that's my opinion too!

[irena7777777]

@latinsatch Who's your favourite guitarist?

[steeler3258]

@latinsatch exactly brother. Tommy Emmanuel plays pretty good himself....considered the "greatest" so....it's all subjective.

[vinnievincent85]

@latinsatch exactly, everybody is good in their own way. now, some may be better technicaly than others, but that doesnt mean shit.

[bigarilla2011]

¿The best guitarrist of the world? ¡Qué pretensioso! ¿Has oído a Andrés Segovia o a Narciso Yepes? Quizá sea el mejor de tu mundo, pero el mundo real es más grande, amigo.

[LSpencer777]

I gave this a "Like" but I think it's a large exaggeration to say he's the Greatest Guitarist in the World. He has a fine tremolo, but I would have liked to hear him do more with this piece: more dynamic variation, more tone color variation, more rubato. Recuerdos de la Alhambra is one of the best-known piece in the classical guitar repertoire. You must bring something fresh to it.

[MajesticMist]

Full of emotion,yep a human wrote that.

[kgotaku1]

muy bueno pero no es mejor que el maestro de maestros, nacionalidad venezolano, el gran Alirio Diaz

[andresv1969]

no le gana a narciso yepes

[jlbadg]

Wow..that was GREAT!! So clean. That was awesome!

[LunaIthil]

just amazing

[TranceBusiness]

wow , very emotional

[dansbigfanguitarist]

He is speaking to me without words. He is a one man band. He is rythm and lead. He is amazing.

[Dyoxp123]

great skills
