Andy's one of the few instrumental guitarists that sounds great as a trio with no accompanying keyboard or rhythm guitarists. Most of those other guys just sound hollow and missing something without accompanyment
He said it in one of his interviews; when Satriani released his first album I realised wow! there is no need to have singer in the band, we can play our guitars and still make it sound interesting to all ears. this is what Satriani did Stories and emotions in his music. and Andy is doing a great job and what he plays belongs to him, no one plays like him. Amazing Player.
The way i see the difference with Andy and Satriani is that, Andy play his songs as a story. But Satriani play his songs as emotions. Both are guitarist that admire and listen to :)
@guitaristimenchantor Think it's called "The Super 70's" from Ibanez. Saw it on another video with Andy playing on it. Not to sure about if that is it's real name though >_>
@evilreddog nope its a ibanez AT300. the ibanez AT100 has a maple neck and a sunburst finish WITH pickguard. the AT100 looks a little more like a strat
This guy has lurked on the fringes of my listening choices, but typically fell behind SRV, Vai and the usual suspects. But wow, NO MORE, AT friggin rocks balls.
@QuagmireJams13 Its his older signature model the AT300, they make a timmons signature now but its alot different.. if your looking for an alternative perhaps try the italian brand "Rash Guitars" and look at the Marco Sfogli signature model.. its nearly identical to the AT300 (but might cost a bit more..!)
@Gothxha oh definitely.. my fav was petrucci but then he got really anal with his playing. Always trying to outdo himself.. Andy on the other hand puts melody and soul first.. Technique is just the spice to the meal he serves up..
Andy Timmons has the perfect combination of tone, feel, and technical proficiency. And he's so fucking musical. He's not up there just doing speed excercises and scale patterns. Its really tasteful
@pmzilfo What to expect from a guy that plays with Andy timmons. He's a great drummer; great whole band! I'm sure I have worse facial expressions and I'm sure I can't play 1/10 of what he's playing. My comment was sarcastic to the "thumb's down" people...
3:43 has to be one of the tastiest licks ever made in the history or music!!!! Amazing!! Phrasing lord! Greg Howe, Andy Timmons and Pat Metheny are my absolute heroes.
This Man is better than any guitarist from now or f the past...A Great Soul and such perfect choice of Notes,harmony with an Oustanding feeling techniques in the right moment.Big Up Mr Timmons you Git All my Respect!!
It's from his Live at the Granada DVD. You can find it on his website. And the sound quality is messed up. His tone sounds way too thin and sharp on the DVD. Probably just a mic issue.
Haha, Andy messed up a couple times. Recovered nicely though. Besides he just recorded the songs. I always love hearing Andy play. It is always so interesting. Just too good.
@fragmashine sadly my friend the world isn't a fair place.... I say that some things are 80% style and 20% skill..... This guy has the skills, but hasn't sold hiself for fame. And that's why he is "unfamous"
O melhor!!!
