I saw David Valdes videos I dunno how many years ago and haven't watched it since. It's 4:07am in the morning and I just remembered his name suddenly after watching some Dragonforce music videos. I still remember how good this guy is.
I really like his style. He combines fast picking with non stopping note bending. Also the rythm is chosen really well. It's really inspiring. And it is as the wine... gets better with time...
The best in his music for me is the fact that he doesn't limit to play arpegios and scales but he also introduce some bending wich transmits us the strong good and in a way romantic feelings in this fast melody.
Te acabo de descubrir David, gracias a un amigo. Lo poco que he leido por aki de comentarios me hace gracia... Soy fan de elitistas y guitarrista desde hace mucho tiempo, y con mi humilde argumento de autoridad, puedo asegurar que eres un crack. Saludos a todos
hey david Este trabajo es un covers, o va por tu propia autoridad...me dices quien es el autor de esta cancion...yyaa que se parece al estilo de jason becker......se te escucha las notas my nitidas saludos..
i don't even no what to say right now. all i know is you've just inspired me to practice my picking, arpegios, and scales. thank you sir. you are an incredible influence
no, el novive de la música, es su hobby pero...MENUDO HOBBY!!!!!!!! podria estar tranquilamente entre los grandes, pero el cree que de esto no puede vivir xD y lo de que si toka en algun grupo, la respuesta es evidentemente que no xD pero hace conciertos con otros guitarristas bueníssimos como José Rubio y Nacho Mur etc...
amazing player, a melodic shredder with a very nice way of phrasing his lines. This is good, paradise lost is probably my favorite. Did anyone notice that at around 5 12 in here he did one of the exact runs from paradise lost? Very good player, I need to go practice more.
hola non ps si tokas muy bien y no me importan todas esas criticas que te hacen eres muy bueno pero dime como es que no tienes un album y lo promocionas aki en mexico ya somos varios los que te hemos visto y eres exelente siguele dando eee

There very little difference between this and any other of his "songs", it just solo over backing track! Obvious chord changes and modulation, yes you have some technique, but some like Steve Vai has WAY more and they do not solo ALL the time! THERE IS A REASON WHY!!!!! Your just a worst version of MAB or ynwqie malmsteen, it just talentless, it not music!!
You know what I find funny is how he still hasn't cut the extra strings off the headstock so they just hang there. Ususally you only see dudes who play in crappy garage bands do that, and here's an amazing shredder doing the same.
i leave them too ... i just like the look of it :) :) but im not in any garabe band ... just... its not that strange some ppl cut them off coz they just dont like it or it gets in theyr hair or wtv ... i just left them coz i like the look of it
to be exact, it's a yamaha rgx 421 DM: HSH configuration, body:alder, fingerboard:maple, color:Old Voilin Sunburst, pickups are directly mounted to the guitar's body, this design promotes a tight and solid tone with great articulation. The guitar have the exclusive Yamaha height-adjustable locking nut. Benefits of this feature include the ability to customize the action and feel of your guitar based on your playing style and string gauge preference.
hey rulerofthegekos.... U suck.. If u knew wat real guitar solo is, then stfu and listen to the beauty of this guy. And his finger are doing the fucking thing than the song ur curently earing.. So stfu and go cry to momy
nice work dude... good musical progression... very good riffs and solos... though you sound very much like moore and yngwie plus the 3 song you posted did not vary that much... but over all... it was excelent!
how in the hell can anyone dislike this is beyond me.

Hablas desde la ignorancia. Jason Becker ha ejercido influencia en su estilo, ¿y?
Nombra a algún guitarrista (mejor dicho, cualquier persona) que no haya sido influido por otro u otros en algún ámbito de su vida.
Dices que copiar es muy fácil..., pero criticar sin fundamento lo es aún más, ¿verdad? ¬¬
