Hi, my name is Richard Lynch. I'm not trying to spam videos with useless speeches or negativity. I'm just wondering if maybe you can take a minute out of your time to hear the song i just uploaded, i just want to be heard. Thanks alot, Much love to music.
That was great, but I still can't play the solo from Hot Dog And A Shake. I want my money back!!! Give me a bottle of anything and a glazed doughnut. To go...
Steve's most inspiring piece for me is "Building the Church Improv" he played at the Guitar Center. I f I could play that I wouldn't need sex or food or even daylight.
@fuckyoumthebest I wish I had HIS guitar that is a custom model with an original floyd rose bridge (gives the ability to the whammy bar to stay in tune after use)
@SteveVaiHimself I think it is funny how your program is only aloud for people 18 and over, but when someone is 14 like me, I can't even learn anything about you as much as I would love to. I love to play guitar and it realy is dissapointing I can't even play anything that those classes teach thanks to my age...
@BDPGT Disregard any age restrictions bro! You play anything you want and learn from any classes and/or teachers you choose. There is no age limit when it comes to your desire to learn. Rock on!
I got to play a Jem 6 like that in the early 1990's...It was pretty strange since I wasnt used toa solid body,locking nut, fine tuners or tremelo ..guess I should have plugged it in..since they seem very responsive amped.
Steve, when will you be putting up how to play your songs smoothly and correctly? I only know a few: "For the love of God" with the G3 1996 solo, "The Crying Machine","Windows to the Soul", most of "The Reaper", and a tiny bit of "Building the Church".
Всё))) теперь я шестиструнный бог))) ноль музыки ересь какая то. Такие черти убили гитарную соляру. Один мужик остался - и это СЛЭШ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love when he says when talking about people's excuses for not playing, "Oh there's so many people that are better than me....blah,blah,blah". "Well I used to feel that way to....right there he should say, "But now I shred all their balls off and am the most exciting spokesman for the Bosley Hair Club for Men." :D!
Sometimes i think Steve is god and play alwasy clear. Start of video is example, where Steve play slighly out of tune and dirty. Ahhh ... Gods sometimes make mistakes? Thank Steve for video, really like this one (pressing thumb up now)!
@Rackoushine hahhahaaa dont take it too seriously dude, he is enjoy all he does. I saw John petrucci made mistakes in one G3 playing glasgow kiss.. if im not mistaken, in 2006.. i saw PG did to in his mr.big solo.. what I learn from those master is that it's useles if u playing always scare for making mistake.. its not fun..
@fakematteo Hahahaha. Probably just the mic or a cable creaking. I think he's got his head screwed on properly. And not up his @ss like so many other people in that biz.
yeah the guinness people are pretty strict and dont reply quickly. i sent in a guitar speed record but never got contacted on when to break it so i went to record holder republic and recordsetter who replied verry quickly and helped me get a speed record
In the first 5 or 8 years that I started to play guitar, I never tuned with a tuner. And then I stopped playing the guitar, perhaps for that very reason. After a few months ago I got a tuner for Android, and tune my guitar with that, and really never thought it could sound so good.
As Steve Vai said, that the first simple rule, and if you do not, really can sound terrible.
Steve could tell me that I should be use a watermelon as a pick and it would be correct! Totally awesome! Thanks for the video Steve, some great info for beginners but a few nice little tips about tone that are useful for advanced players too
sir, i am really a great fan of you that now i have started with my new solo band , and want you to check that on my channel, i love and heartly appreciate your guitar solos and trying on my own even to do some of your covers
Love ya Vai So happy your giving lessons. Wow cool idea lets get you in the Guinness Book Of Records :O) Thank you so much for sharing your experiences and beautiful vibes. Lessons from the guru himself WOW :o) Great information and lesson.
and Steve if you see this comment .. you are the best guitarist of all time . Anyone that can think of an argument for that needs to listen to more of your playing.
I've been playing (and listening) for a long time the thing I like about you best is your ENTHUSIASM ! Who wouldn't want to learn after listening to you....
