8 String Guitar Tapping - La Jolla - Matthew McGhee

[MrUberAnarchist]

The bass strings are not correctly tuned in this song..

Other than that, keep up the good work, but I cringe when I listen to it.

[xN4THxTH3xDEM0Nx]

i was expecting some shred tapping and was pleasantly surprised to find this melodic piece... straight in the favs :)

[AnokhinVV]

This is very interesting melody. Everybody likes it :-))

[FMpao27]

пальцы творят чудеса=)

[pjmusolino]

Hey are there any tabs for this, if so, can I please get some, I love this song

[redxile666]

What do you think of the Schecter ATX C-8 in comparison with the Schecter Damien Elite-8?

[pjmusolino]

Amazing guitar work. I hope your talent doesn't go unseen by millions

[NatashaEchos]

I've had this opened in my browser for weeks now and finally decided to just go ahead and buy it. Absolutely soooo good and calming.

[picked2pieces]

Your music is awesome! I'm gonna buy a bunch of your songs. Keep the music coming Matt.

[MartyFriedmanRulez66]

If I had an Ipod I would buy all your music so you could keep making all this wonderful music

[anthonyjoseph91]

sick ass song!!!! ya from san diego la jolla hahah jw?

[civic18INtreo]

dam cant get over the sound that the guitar produces nice!

[JesseM4242]

huge fan! and i LOVE music like this... infact if youve checked any of my vids out their like this but yours is alot happier and unlooped, would you happen to have tabs for this ?

[Pdpdrummer352]

Hey I'm just curious but is that a deathbat on your fret board? :D

[balijam]

Great! Great, unique sound, almost Buckethead a la Colma...Funny, we have the same exact fountain...

[riccardopocci73]

amazing! this the way a 8 string guitar can give another world of chords melody and way of playing.. not always that metal stuff...... great!

[Gianfacci]

you are an EXCELLENT MUSICIAN, I hope in the future i can play bass or guitar like u, thanks for making videos like this.

[xVERANTx]

even more amazing

[emoller333]

man, seriously, I've been watching you for nothing less than 4, maybe 6 months. You're great in every song you do, even in the almost electronic music, which I loved, by the way. All of your composings are too beautiful. I love your work, dude.

[Grindcorevlad]

This is like playing the piano

[minazmorgul]

Sorry but I just don't understand, you have all the expensive guitars, doesn't it mean that you're quite rich??? Then why do you have to make it for money? :)

[StupidHatMatt]

@minazmorgul Good question, and here's the answer... I no longer have any of those instruments as I've had to sell them. Now I only have an 8 string, a bass and a classical guitar. Also, no more drums. By the way, I was never rich I just spent all my money on music.

[minazmorgul]

@StupidHatMatt Ahh, so sorry, man, if I made you feel bad I really have to apologize:) I just thought you were, So keep it up, keep on making good music just like this, and hope you'll be able to buy those instruments back very soon :)

[garentine]

@StupidHatMatt Hope the rough gets smoothed out man, we all love you're vids. Never stop makin them!

[mikepshena]

@minazmorgul You're a dumbass sorry.

[minazmorgul]

@mikepshena Please stay out, it's none of your business

[1punkypost3]

[Tobeprincecaspian]

[SameeeboyFBI]

[GuitarsRgood]

@StupidHatMatt do you have any CD's, or just the iTunes songs? i want to listen to this in my car!

[DeclinMulqueen]

I always have loved this style on acoustic. First time I have seen it done better on electric guitar. This IS music.

[StupidHatMatt]

@DeclinMulqueen Thank you my friend

[tgv1975]

Beautiful!

[DSxFlyingSquad]

[1978Musician1978]

[Charleyxxx1]

[TripleTrollForce]

Must be a pain changing strings.

Also Added to my list of "Soothing songs"

This really cheers me up every time I listen to it. Thank you, sir.

[StupidHatMatt]

@xYOSHIxPWNS thank you for listening!

[johns2406]

That was really really good



[Elenitalovesit]

This is really ... lovely.

[aseventh]

Choice quality stuff!

[thatoneguymusic1]

You are fucking awesome, and I really hear a scale the summit kind of sound in your stuff. If you don't already know them, check them out. You'd probably like them, they're all instrumentals

[StupidHatMatt]

@thatoneguymusic1 I've heard of them, they are good just not really my cup of tea. Great musicians though.

[HeWhoAbides2011]

@thatoneguymusic1 Same exact thing that I thought when hearing this. Also, reminds me of Explosions In The Sky and This Will Destroy you just a bit faster.

[hpete9019]

it has that blink-182 sound

[maxxZpad13]

hey man, i gotta be honest your my freakin hero. so much has gone wrong in my life and your music really inspires me. im a guitarist myself not even comparing to you. i lean more toward the metal style of things and was looking at schecter 8 strings and found you. thank you. for making this music sometimes a break from death puking and drop tuned metal to this is a change worth making. thank you.

[StupidHatMatt]

@maxxZpad13 Hey man I really appreciate it. Metal is great too, I love listening to that music also. Whatever music gets your emotions out whether it's country, rock, metal or jazz. We are all in the same boat, just doing what we love.

[one100gs]

Hey Matt. Great playing as usual. Im going to inbox you here so we can discuss a possible collaberation

[legatolaurel]

very cool. nice guitar too.

[Rauandrew]

[JesseM4242]

[dodee550]

Hi....Thanks for visit my YouTube Channel...

Wow that' awesome....it's a really beautiful music.....you seem to be a very talented composer buddy ....^_^

[Rauandrew]

Очень красиво!

[guitargeek018]

Absolutely beautiful =)

The tapping is brilliant and really smooth

Well composed... Just all around AWESOME

[PrincessLilyMUSIC]

You´re not only an awesome guitar player, you are a very talented composer ^^ I really think you should keep going and never stop!

I like that you change rhythm now and then, it makes everything a lot more interesting.

Though I would like the tune to not start as quick as it does. Some kind of intro before the intro you have would be nice.

This is just plain beautiful! The notes, chords and how it´s all being played. VERY professional.

Nice finish!

It´s perfect, but could´ve been longer ^^

[awaldegrave]

This one of the best guitar riffs I have heard,Totally blow away.

100 Thumbs up.

[metalgirlmusic]

A really beautiful piece Matthew. You have an wonderful tapping technique too, Love it!

[JeanPierreTrouillon]

[GoldenRay82]

Beautiful, sweet and fine song! I really liked it! I also like your policy of "spending at least an hour a day finding musicians and watching their videos" and the fact you encourage people to freely use your videos as long as they credit you. All the best to you, friend.

[Composer19691]

Nice dude! Most people who play this style don't have too much to say...but you put together a nice composition even non guitarists can enjoy. Solid. Strikes a nice mood.

[TheNeedled]

You are a GOD at guitar.... Even i don't listen very much music like this, this is awesome. btw, What guitar is this ?

[kaontagyud]

[panteralover23]

You hear that? That's right, you don't! Because I have nothing to say to that beautiful piece; in fact, all I want to do is listen! No one better speak while I'm listening! Great playing! :)

[CodyOfTheWarzone]

[FL50DRUMR]

Final Chorus: And it Rains, Tears pour from my soul. And it rains, the pain takes it's toll. Let me wake up from this bad dream, and find us together in La Jolla.

[StupidHatMatt]

@FL50DRUMR Great lyrics man, very emotional :)

[FL50DRUMR]

Chorus: And it Rains, Tears pour from my soul. And it rains, the pain takes it's toll. Let me wake up from this bad dream, and find us together in La Jolla.

V3: Tears fall like raindrops from the sky, I can't bare to see you with some other guy. We walked moonlit beaches and I held your hand, our lives have moved on like an hourglass of sand. Maybe someday our love will be, but 'till then I'll always have La Jolla with me.

[FL50DRUMR]

Chorus: And it Rains, Tears pour from my soul. And it rains, the pain takes it's toll. Let me wake up from this bad dream, and find us together in La Jolla.

V2:I screamed so loud I could not hear, all of the thoughts in my head, all filled with fear. Knowing that I would never see you again, Please, Oh, Please don't say "Let's be friends" You mean so much to me I cannot explain, the hurt inside - so much rain.

[FL50DRUMR]

Matt - I wrote some lyrics for this song:

V1: The sign on the door read "closed for the season". You crushed my soul without offering a reason. I know with you by side, we can make it to the end, we will keep stride. No one knows just how alone I am inside, You brought love into my life, this I must confide. Affraid of nothing and everything, I just can't see... What happened to us, Why must our love end so suddenly?

[germanoguitar]

This song comes with the PEACE!

[onraj9mm]

absolutely beautiful, somehow it reminds me a bit of some bucketheads stuff, really soulful

[StupidHatMatt]

@onraj9mm Buckethead is an amazing guitar player

[RetroSparkles]

@onraj9mm Exactly what I was thinking O_O

[BUCKETHEADache]

[IHIRODIM]

[PakhtunRockHard]

I can't describe how fucking beautiful this composition is.

[SacredAge]

Beautiful!! Can i sample it and make a conscious/hiphop beat??

[MrIKTPQ4life]

This man deserves a blowjob, a milkshake and a full head of hair.

[uidsea]

Definitely no homo but.... Ya know what im sayin?

[G01DM4N]

I can understand you not being into live playing much, but you'd do excellent in a studio. However the music industry is very particular, you either want to do it or you dont :) I love your playing my friend

[rfcbeach]

This is one of the most beautiful original compositions I've ever heard. You are gonna go really far bro, don't ever stop playing :).

[MrOvulation]

Absolutely Astonishing

[TRayner704]

Great song about a great town. Approved by a La Jollan.

[ChemicallAli]

Could you do it half this speed? i love this song, but i would love to hear it at a slower tempo.

[mastercelebi251]

your a god.

[gulfgypsy]

Sunset Cove in La Jolla ....... Once upon a time watching the sun set from there was magic.

Your song made the magic live again, if only for a short time.

Thank you.

[StupidHatMatt]

@gulfgypsy So beautifull...

[poopooer]

but can he play smoke on the water

[Falling2Grey29]

@poopooer He could play the guitar, bass, drums and vocal parts on his sexy Blackjack ATX C-8.

[poopooer]

@Falling2Grey29 fuck yea he could at the same time

[StupidHatMatt]

@poopooer I tried to learn it once but couldn't get it

[Vinnygotnoodles]

Next time you make me cry with one of your song I'll sue your ass.

[StupidHatMatt]

@Vinnygotnoodles Man, you are too funny... the song is emotional for me too :)

[MrYumYum0]

How do you like the HD500? I'm weighing whether I should get one or wait for whatever BOSS has coming out since there's rumors of a GT-12. Also, I don't know if you play around with it much, but what do you think of the distortion models on it?

[jortulatucci]

Awesume playing dude! All youtube players who playing tapping things have to play very fast, but you can play slow and make the guitar more interesting, Keep rockin!
