  • @kevinjoe3578

    Dude I think theyr improvising

  • What was that song on 1:30 ?????

  • Use a little slapback delay and reverb to mask those "i didn't quiet pick that note right" notes. :)

  • 3:03 Eruption Solo by Eddie Van Halen

  • lovin the Synyster gates custom schecter

  • dude you don't suck and im not trollin here but one question a gibson sg don't really seem like a goon guitar for a guitar battle but thats just my thoughts but anyways rock on dude

  • @MrSpeckid how come you think so? I'd say they're one of the electric body styles that set the basis for all other models. The SG has ranged in use from country to even rap music. It surprises me that you'd see it as a guitar not suitable for a guitar battle.

  • jimmy page would walk out there and liquifi them both

  • @TheBobohj Thats.. obvious, for one, and also completely irrelevant.

  • Is the guy on the left have a synister gates guitar????

  • you actually did really awesome for not feeling comfortable in the spotlight both of you guys are awesome

  • I think you did better than he did. He was using music he learned, it seemed like you were improvising.

  • I really think you where the best ! 

  • This was pretty fun to watch, I think you both won because you boys obviously have different styles of guitar playing, you can't really compare those styles. I'm a guitarist too and I play lots of styles. But I take my hat off to the both of you, you both did great! :)

  • Haha it sounds like the guy on the Syn guitar played Vai's part on the Crossroads duel.

  • I think you were much better than your pal. All of his solos just sounded like a bunch of random notes barfed out into one "sequence". I definitely think you're the better player. And awesome SG.

  • How many guitarists does it take to screw in a light bulb?

    One.

    One to screw it in and nine to say they can do it better.

  • @ZeppelinFloydRoses Heard that before.

    Just wondering why it was relevant to comment, though.

  • @ZeppelinFloydRoses how many bass players does it take to screw in a light bulb? 1 5 1 5 1 5

  • i have the same guitar you have man and i also have a schecter but man the sg sounds so much beter so much more crisp

  • dude.

    im pertty sure if you was playing the 3rd november rain solo. you totaly win

  • Anybodyvwho plays a sg automatically wins in my book good job dude

  • you fad a better rock and roll feel, i vote for you dude

  • DRAGONFORCE FATALITY!!!!!!

    

  • Justin bieber won because everyone was cheering for him...

  • i can out play both of you

  • @megadethfever Then bring that bragging over to your own channel.

  • @megadethfever no one cares lol next time just say "Guys im a guitarist too come check out my cool stuff" ... you just sound like a dick

  • i'm pretty sure i heard one of those riffs from Brutal Legend

  • Dude the sg sounds amazing!!! Sick fucking guitar tone love it!

  • that was pretty good i say the one with the sg won

  • Hey this was uploaded on my birthday! But anyways you didn suck. i though ti was great

  • I think you win for tone alone...

  • i cant really do that i would be the one chugga chugga riffing on a dropped tuned guitar most likely i would playing drop A on it lol but ya thats is good

  • Great performance to the both !

    Really , fast doesnt mean good. Obviously thats why the audience was thinking otherwise. You hit the notes better than the other guy. The world today doesnt really appreciate the guitar players as much and the diff genres they play. Thats why you just have to open your eyes and look at the world and no matter what you play , inspire yourself.

    Like i got to say "for the love of god" by steve vai really opened my eyes.

    And john coltrane , john mayer ,lynyrd skyn

  • Ya'll are both really good.

  • The tunes are repetitive I was hoping one of the two would do a funky riff or step out of the "one" note hits -.- ANYWAYS LIKED

  • @DualWieldingBlades As I've said before in many other replies, I'd have enjoyed that. But this was an auditorium full of high school students (during the last period of the day) who really couldn't care less about the performers, unless they're dancing or rapping. Really isn't the ideal crowd to play "funky riffs" or the like to. Sadly, I personally felt I had to compensate and play what would at least entertain the majority. Though I can't speak for my friend Aaron (other guy).

  • Fast doesnt mean its good... kids..

  • @Matthijs3476 I agree. But you can't really expect a bunch of high school kids to know anything about what makes music good. Especially in these times where rap is considered music. The only thing they respond to is fast, so that's really what we had to resort to playing if anyone was going to pay attention. Trust me, I'd much rather play slow bluesy licks. This just wasn't the audience that would understand or appreciate that.

  • @hvrock13 Yea.. it sucks, doesn't it? (the audience)

  • @Matthijs3476 I totally agree. It sucks extremely bad.

  • @hvrock13 check my vids out sometime search gage blevins.... one of my ex lead players could do this stuff ten times better, but when it came to blues some reason he just couldn't... it takes the feeling, you have it. loud distorted and fast dont mean good. you were awesome though.

  • @slashu I enjoy the occasional shredder like your ex-lead guitar guy.. But I'd get tired of that fast. I can only stand to listen to perfected technique for so long. It starts to feel like I'm listening to a Guitar Pro MIDI track. Its so robotic, and doesn't have human error or feeling/emotion to it. That seems to be the trade-off so many guitarists make. It's why I prefer to be the lead guy with feeling (and mistakes) rather than give it up for perfect accuracy. By the way, thanks!

  • @Matthijs3476 You're right saying fast doesn't mean it's good music. However, a guitar battle is about more about showmanship and crowd pleasing than about the music and expression of it. There's a time and a place for both amazing music and kick-ass speedy riffs like that. And that time and place happened to be there and they played like bawses!

  • was that the last solo in the crosswords movie Eugenes bag o tricks? by the schecter kid

  • Schecter Synyster kid is beter

  • the other guy is better than you... :S

  • both of u are amazing

  • @Inc0rupt3ble I know right!!!!

  • i hate how everyone thinks that tapping is so hard. its not. now go up their and play the solo to stairway to heaven, now thats something to be proud of

  • @Inc0rupt3ble I didn't want to rip solos off of popular songs in this. But if you want to see me playing the Stairway solo, I have a full-length video of me covering the guitar to the whole song, with solo.

  • @hvrock13

    well ya i understand that and i wasnt really pointing that at you, its just that i wish it required more to get the crowd freaking out then just tapping...

    i thought you would have won the battle if you hadnt have given up

  • @Inc0rupt3ble I've played electric guitar for just over a year and I don't want to be arrogant but I can to a decent standard.

  • guitar hero 2.0

  • i like how the guy on the left played that one part from crossroads during the guitar battle with the devil's ringer guitarist haha

  • ha ha ha he beat him wit ye old through the fire an flames

  • Both were good, until the other guy started taking songs.

    Like Eruption.

    And Through the fire and the Flames.

    You won.

  • 2:07 buckethead stuff

  • I actually liked the SG tone better. And the other guy was kinda douchey so yeah. You win imo.

  • O cara da guitarra customizada toca bem rápido, mas não toca nada que preste, prefiro o da SG, ele tinha felling

  • honestly, your playing was a lot tighter and clearer than the other kid, so you win in my yes.. ears.. what ever, you get the point.

  • dude the one with the gibson.. it wasnt your fault, i think your amp was pretty shit so it did sound like crap

  • @MrLA7X haha yeah, my Marshall was a '93 single preamp stage, solid state power section hybrid. They never sound good. Got myself a pure tube late '60s Marshall clone now, that I wired up myself. Sounds much better.. and louder!

  • @hvrock13 good dude! :D dont say you got owned, you would of been much sicker in something like a line 6 and emg pick ups but thats my opinion but you powned man :D

  • @MrLA7X I'm more of a tone purist actually. Some people like the sound of those emulation amps and active pickups, but to me they're much too.. heavy metalish. My style and preference is pretty traditional, drawing from blues, 60's and 70's rock genres, and even some folk (acoustic of course) so I like the sounds of those old, simple and proven technologies. I don't need an effects loop, high gain, or the worry of the battery dying in my pickups. I do best with simple things =]

  • lol that kid on the left is a tool and a faggot. if i were you i would have beat the crap out of him

  • Is that Not Ready To Die at 3:28?

  • when in doubt. shred at the 18th fret.

  • I like how he pulls out dragonforce because he runs out of ideas, what a pansy...

  • You two are awesome but I think the one on the right is mire legit cause the one on the left started to get desperate and started using awesome songs instead of making your own stuff on the spot

  • well you guys are both good players; most videos showing a guitar battle with two kids kind of suck but yours...entertaining. I'm gonna have to give it to the other guy, but only barely

  • HE WAS USING A CHAIR!! NO FAIR lol

    nice guitar battle :D

    First time i saw a real guitar battle

  • woah fucksicles! i thought egh these guys are ok at first then i was like holy kung fu jesus with brick breaking action! these guys can fuckin shred!

  • nah you aren't a bad player deffinately better than average and you can free style pretty well the other guy just had a better flow is all,

  • Guy on the left was winning since the very first begining.

  • wow, HE 0WN3D YOU AT 3:30! but anyway your better then me, i dont even know how to play

  • @TheLastProject11 Usually, Dragonforce is a last resort.. lol its the easiest and most overrated thing to play man. There were much better things he played earlier on. When it came to Dragonforce though, I was done. I wasn't gonna copy people's music.

  • @hvrock13 wow, you've actuley got a point there. sorry man.

  • @hvrock13 yeah dude ur definitely good. you beat him fer sher. cuz hes not as original. if you make your own shit you kickass a hellzamore

  • @hvrock13 I hate how the other guy fucked up Eruption by the way

  • @hvrock13 yeah when i heard him play it i was like fail haha so to my eyes you won

  • @TheLastProject11 that isn't even hard, seriously

  • Comment removed

  • 48k views B-ryce? lol I missed the memo. -Ben

  • @Chongybongwater man, almost 48k on the dot.. didn't notice that. Hm, what memo? I think this was kind of a trainwreck for me.. lol

  • @hvrock13 It definitely wasn't your best shining moment. lol But it's better than jason hartley. haha

    

  • Someone brought in the big guns at 3:30

  • throw in one or 2 dimebag darrel squils in FLAWWLES VICTORY ;)

  • Dude imo you win! That dingleberry on the left is a ripoff riff-bandit, no soul, just quick fingers (my little cousin can play playstation with a similar degree of expertise). You actually seemed to improvise and not just blast through diatonic scales at warp speed. Better bends, better control, and you didn't try to play anything outside of your skill level. Plus who cares about tapping anyway, he just played on the fact that the crowd don't understand guitar playing. Good job!

  • is it wrong if these video gave me a boner?

  • @UnitedWeDie I actually encourage it.

  • I believe that you both did equally well but he has a sig Syn... so he wins. You raped the 4th interval though.

  • I think you did awesome!

  • You got owned man lol

  • Jesus you both raped ass.

  • @slayerzmoody Jesus and I did no raping of asses if I recall correctly..

  • Wow you're both sloppy as hell

  • @mehtabb1 Makes for a more interesting and spontaneous solo!

  • SYn Gates custom OMFG!

  • You owned him mate, dont put yourself down

  • wow the guy on the left can really dish out some neoclassicalism

  • eugene´s trickbag ftw!!!

  • Pretty cool. I give you the victory, just because you don't have a faggy ass guitar, clean tone, and didn't try to show off with gay ass DragonForce. I wouldn't of even bothered to play anything after he played that Through the Fire and the Flames shit. I would've done exactly what you did, shrug, smirk and turn my shit off.

  • Comment removed

  • @hvrock hey man that shit was pretty cool the other guy scruwed alot you didnt

    thats a epic win for me :) keep playing

    sorry for my english im mexican

  • Dude you are pretty awesome

  • 3:26 Through the Fire and the Flames FTW!!!!!

  • I guarantee, you don't suck as bad as I do. You rock!!!!

  • EPIC!!!!

  • you should've played the afterlife solo XD

  • i thought you were better

  • the guy on the left played the classical part from the guitar duel at the end of the movie crossroads

  • play yngwie malmsteen and you win instantly!

  • you both done well my cucasion brotha

  • The guy on right

  • Someone always resorts to tapping. Lol

  • at 3:05 isn't it Van Halen's eruption????

  • you guys make me feel bad about my skills even though i thought i was fine

  • Dude you were good give yourself some props but that was funny that he played the neoclassical part from Crossroads lol I just don't know how he can play a syn custom seriously I would feel like such a tool even I was amazing and honestly that dude didnt even play that much better

  • im goin for the guy with the shecter

  • You have a horrible amp though.

  • 3:30 Dragonforce!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!

  • You know what ignore that other comment. i am very imbressed, keep it up :D

  • Hey, dude. dont say u did bad. For Your age you are pretty good if i say so myself

  • you play like hell!!!!!!

  • SYN GATES SIG GUITAR BONER

  • This makes me want to get off my ass and play guitar hahaha

  • Comment removed

  • Schecter win!!!!!

  • Is it just me... Or Was any1 eels expecting the chair 2 slide and make the kid with Schecter guitar fall?

  • the playings decent with both guys buy there's no energy

  • my faorite part starts at 0:00 and ends at 3:54

  • @ManiacOfMotorcycles okay then thanks

  • Les Paul all the way

  • What would you guys buy? Epiphone les paul 1956 goldtop or Epiphone SG-G400?

  • @goldenguy12345 SG dude its lighter and sexier =)

  • and he fucking had to play eruption.... -.-

  • Comment removed

  • Damn..

    

  • is there much of a difference between gibson sg and epiphone sg?

  • @goldenguy12345 Oh yeah, a huge difference. Gibson has better pickups, hardware, wood, build quality, tuners, electronics, and a better hardshell case. And if you get the Standard like mine, you get the nice binding and finish. Usually binding and heritage cherry are higher-end qualities of Gibson guitars. Not only do they make it look nice, but the binding on the neck makes it easier to play since no fret ends can hurt your hand.

  • @goldenguy12345 i agree with hvrock13, but the epiphone is really fun to play, if ur on a budget and really want an sg, go for the epiphone g-400, i have it and it works for me it just sounds great and and is fun to play, but i feel it is more of a beginners guitar, i've tried an sg standard aand it was miles better by comparison, only splash out on the gibson if u have the cash

  • @goldenguy12345, the answer is 'no.' There is no difference, it is all in the mind and how much money one wishes to burn. - 'Fact: They are the same, made by the same people in the same company, all the same way...'

  • @201guitar slash and zakk wylde both play epiphones from time to time... Just to reinforce your proclamation =)

  • come on man, you cant do three bends in pentatonic and expect the crowd to go crazy for you after the other guy played dragonforce.

  • @wakemeup277 yeah, I forgot that people don't have taste anymore.. I mean, Dragonforce gets them excited? That's just sad.

  • @hvrock13 It's not that, he's just better. And not just technically. You even said yourself you sucked.

  • @hvrock13 nah you are just not as good as the other guy you are pretty good but he had better comebacks

  • I WIN kkkk : /watch?v=nMs4VJQIQP8

    From Brazil ! We Rock !

  • 1:34 obviously stolen from crossroads and he even messes that up

  • @jalove31426 yea dude, that song is definitly writen by crossroads staff -.-* you ignorant fuck ...

  • speed but NO STYLE at all

  • @senormadeland You sure you listened to it? because I (on the right) didn't play really any really speedy stuff. I kept it pretty simple and bluesy with a rock feel, which I'd consider a style..

  • @hvrock13 i am sure...there is no style. Just imitation, without feeling.

    Sorry but I don't like it (and i've been playing the guitar for 17years)

  • @senormadeland I disagree, as I was the one playing and I can tell you that there was feeling in my playing. Always has been. Its hard not to imitate; everyone does. Nobody is unique anymore, since all styles are just mixtures of different influences. In that sense, you imitate other guitarists just as I do.

  • @hvrock13 maybe there was feelings...but I can't hear that. Sure you always imitate (unless you're a genius) but in this case, it sounds aggressive and dull. I've been playing the guitar for 17years and to me, those solos are just good to impress newbies or would be hard rockers.

    No hard feelings, just my opinion.

    Listen to J. Frusciante...he's a good guitar player

  • nice

  • but dude you were just as good

  • im a huge a7x fan and sorry to say but his guitar is better

  • /zzzzzzz

  • you guys look about my age. i couldnt even compare to either one of you. great job

  • Man you guys are like exactly even skill level, but I think you played with a little more emotion when you threw out your riffs so Id say..... by a hair you won!

  • if you played eruption you pwnd him!

  • 2:01 sounds like Buckethead tapping

  • @Arkain9 Actually, I only tapped one or two times.. let's not start exaggerating!

  • @hvrock13 Stil sounded great, whatever it was :)

  • @Arkain9 lol like in jordan:P

  • @MichaelEppinetteTV Cha bro, totes :D

  • Lol it's just a big tapping contest

  • 2:56 Van Halen on yoo ass!

  • I think you have a better style than the dude on the left.

  • to be onest i think because he was further away
