Justin King - Phunkdified

[kirklands0912]

this fucker is gettin crazy pussy

[gcastellanos02]

the part from 1:18 to 1:44 is impressive, but it doesnt sound very good. At least not to me. But hey thats just me.

[icespade1]

@gcastellanos02 hes playing this song way faster than it was written for, thats why it sounds odd all the way through

[123silvercrest]

You say "cool but.." i stop you there and say.. "shup the fuck up and go die"

[YuraImashev]

Why there're only my views here?

[itsdirtsworld]

What kind of guitar is he using?

[undeadcress]

Ben is pretty damn good at this! I dare to say probably played it in a more 'phunkdified' but come on.. this guy wrote the thing!

[classclownmarc0]

42 dislikes?! What video were those 42 people watching? :S

[magicbiped]

I'm sorry, but Ben Lapps beat him at his own game, go watch the related vid to the side -->

[Baaltringue]

@magicbiped

Nah, you can't say that. Different guitar, different mic/amp. You can't compare. Maybe it sounds better with Ben's gear (I agree with that), but you can't compare the skills.

Fucking orgasmic though...

[EpicDJTime]

BEST CREDITS EVER. CAPS LOCK TO EMPHASIZE.

[gnrcr]

Oh fuck, this isn't legal.

[Rocinantex1]

slappa-da.....guitar...? ...mon?



[deltafan909]

Ben Lapps is better! He is also from my school.

[bekas98moe]

@deltafan909 and who play the song first?

[deltafan909]

@bekas98moe Not Ben Lapps. Does it matter? Ben plays it better than the original.

[Metalwurst666]

@deltafan909 he plays it kinda cleaner, but with less tonal and dynamic liveliness imo

[Feadrahchann]

@Metalwurst666 Agreed there. However, they're both good in their own rights anyways.

[syaoranpies]

@deltafan909 i disagree

[syaoranpies]

@deltafan909 lol you obviously are saying that just because he's from your school, ben is good but justin is obviously better, i'm going to go out on a limb here and say you don't know much about guitar

[bekas98moe]

@syaoranpies finally someone understands me!! :)

[deltafan909]

@syaoranpies Lol, you're right on! ;)

[HennkaBlacksmith]

his name is talking about everything...hes the King...yes he is... i think more better than Igor Presnyakov...even though hes a pro too :)

[S33y0uInH3ll]

Arrow to the knee is better than a sword to the chest..

[PatheticEffort]

I dont even care about thumbs up, and I think King is awesome. No need for this rough comment of yours :)

[TheSense13]

@PatheticEffort no you CAN'T, now fuck off with that joke nobody is giving you thumbs up okay!

[EvMund]

Well, fuck. who wants to buy my guitar? i don't deserve it

[nopy1000]

My guitar is on Zoloft after seeing this.

[CalvinR7]

HA! found the last note.

[mystylejow]

DUMPERT

[dude49ers]

Ok. I'm gonna stop to play my guitar. Amen.

[EnlightenedJHOX]

Jesus?

[jordanblake17]

this video should have more views.

[Elijahdrixon]

haha wow, This is my first time hearing this guy. I left smiling and a fan. Bravo. Ur timing and skill in general are amazing.

[phoenix110216]

很屌是很屌 但吵死了 這是音樂嗎? AndyMckee比他好太多

[adeleisunderrated19]

Ben Lapps-Justin King

[SwankySky]

anyone know if there's a tutorial for this somewhere?

[MrScottJJohnson]

Last night at my college, tried to show my teacher and some friends o mine this song right here. Said it was my style of guitar playing, surprisingly they started bashing it. I pulled up another one, Cold Arrival by Maneli Jamal, still bashed it. Did the same with Rylynn by Andy McKee. There a reason for this?

[StuartLikesMusic]

@MrScottJJohnson well considering we don't know what aspects were 'bashed', there could be any reason.

[MrScottJJohnson]

@StuartLikesMusic Said the "beating" sucks and only looks difficult to ppl who've never touched a guitar. I literally tried playing everything u could think of in the acoustic soloing genre. Down to igor's Sweet Child o Mine.

[Xxguitarkiller77xX]

@MrScottJJohnson sounds to me your "friends" are a bunch of pieces of shit!

[MrScottJJohnson]

@Xxguitarkiller77xX lol thanks! Pretty much everyone is an ass about something least once in their life though. Just, ppl who don't play enough guitar to even come close to understanding the beauty of it.

[cjmgretchen]

what video or documentary or whatever is this the end to?

[STevEKlm012]

@cjmgretchen

/watch?v=l3P6HcKVTrY&

As you might expect, phunkdified comes at the very end.

[PipesSkinsSlapsLicks]

It sounds like rain.

[grevejp44]

I wish i could play finger style, you always look badass while playing finger style.

[torchofthelord]

Andy McKee got nothin' on him...

[MohawkLand05]

This guy is just STUPID talented... wow

[ZeroALLEY]

i thought @1:18 something gone wrong like he's drunk or something. :o

[XxForeverEmoxX]

@ZeroALLEY Nah. He just played 128th notes while still changing what note/chord he was playing. Can't really tell, considering it was too damn epic for the human ears to register. In short, it was like WE were drunk or something.

[madbenbro]

I heard that guitar died of orgasm

[Johannson6990]

Drop F tuning with a high E .......duh

[greggkmilton]

Dude, you are good, but Lapps has you beat! I played for 25 years before my hand surgery and I couldn't do what ya'll do...just sayin'

[222022200]

DADGAD tuning

[limbo74]

There's NO WAY a man can play that way if he didn't had sold his soul to the devil before...

[GOLDEN0000011]

@limbo74 ///Quite a Thought, But I even Doubt The Great Robert Johnson sold-His for a Guitar Lesson or 2..hahahahaa!!

[AcousticDude17]

HE CAN PLAY FULL PHUNK BAND SONGS ON ONE INSTRUMENT

[sgtBicho]

Std tune??

Great, classic video :)

[SeriousJewish]

@sgtBicho CADGAC tuning

[bayoubilt]

I spelled Sabicas wrong. Sorry. Thanks for the headsup BlazeAG

[TheBlazeAG]

@bayoubilt No no, thank you, I actually wasn't familiar with who he was actually, it wasn't till I looked up what you said and found the correct name. Probably one of the best discoveries of my life. You weren't exaggerating in the slightest.

[RunescapeTOOm]

Thumbs up if you don't care about thumbing my comment up.

[SirBartholomewJones]

Did...did that just fucking happen...

[edwardelricgirl56]

@2:03

*insert wild applause*

[Thrashoholick]

Sometimes more is better

[deathalloverno1]

Trance

[bayoubilt]

I can do that.

[Djouf54]

I think that if I was a girl, I would probably fell in love...

[CyclicDevourment]

HOLY SHIT

[breakinknucklesruler]

ive never seen anyone do a triplet strum like that its nuts

[cactustactics]

@breakinknucklesruler it looks like a flamenco rasgueado, it's actually pretty doable after a bit of practice limbering up your fingers - there are a few vids around that show you how, it's definitely worth learning for fun

The rest of the song's a bit trickier though yeah

[bayoubilt]

@cactustactics I saw Sibicus play in the late 80's. He was doing this and much more. He was the most amazing guitarist I've ever seen. Like I said I can do what he's doing. I fist saw this kind of playing at a party in San Antonio a long time ago. The guys name was Rich something. This isn't new.

[TheBlazeAG]

@bayoubilt You mean Sabicas?

[bayoubilt]

@TheBlazeAG I saw him after one of my gigs in San Antonio in the mid 80's. Going to my car I saw a sign that said" Sabicas, World renowed guitarist".It was a small auditorium with mayber 20 people there. I have NEVER heard before or since anyone come close to playing what he performed that night. One guitar and no mic. AWESOME! I met him later at the meet and greet but he didn't speak English. He ha the biggest hands and longest fingers I have ever seen. Quite a genttleman.

[tatertothotdishify]

@bayoubilt this really offended you eh?

[CallistoAshus]

Damn, he's abusing the shit out of his right hand

[MrGuitar5203]

im gonna go have a serious talk with my guitar now.

[GarretsShadow]

I can play this, but not as fast as in this vid. Justin King is a beast!

[MOOOOOOODA]

36 jealous people dislike ... SCEW 'EM !

[HMJohnsonGuitar]

Amazing



[pepectm]

The most amazing think about this, is that this is actually a song, i mean, is not a jam, is not just hitting on wood, he wrote this musically speaking, daaaamn man, he has some hell of a tallent right there.

[PooPooPerson]

justin king is a god-like player, but honestly i wish he would slow down and articulate each note a little. lots of the song kind of jumbles together.

[hbigman0921]

Is it normal playing??

I think that video is fast playing haha

[AaronisRadder]

i now feel like a beginner

[Bulletwithguns]

tabs plz ;)?

[cheesemuffin94]

I love how MysteryGuitarMan is in the suggestions

[b0n3z0r]

i recommend to check out his "Opening" (2000) and 2007 Justin King and the Apologies albums, cuz they're great!

[Ringer34]

this is sooooooo amazing and he is very talented but im just not a huge fan of this stye of guitar playing even though i wish i was

[voidstuff]

Now we all guitarrists give up

[MrUbercool007]

Wow...I want him to be my teacher!!!

[guitarreilly]

its technically brilliant and all that but i found my self pretty board after around 50 seconds still though a like from me

[FunkyPsychotrope]

Amazing !!

[Piten4]

[esTisaposer]

@Piten4 because he's using the guitar like a bass and popping and slapping the strings

[Sverreml]

Chuck Norris can play this on a triangle ;)

[GL0CK19onboard]

[000Z9A]

[Arksband]

@TheJzai Because it's quite niche, amazing, but niche.

[fisknew001]

He's a beast :D



[TheRussloner]

I now understand how much i suck at guitar. I give up

[pitrik]

@TheRussloner

Been there, felt that way, thanks to the Malmsteens and Rhoadses and Van Halens and Satrianis of the guitar world.

Having said that, guitar playing isn't a race or a game of king of the hill - play because it makes YOU happy, haters and competition be damned.

[skkiittllezz]

@pitrik you left out an important detail. I dont think Justin King, Van Halen, Suncha Jung, etc gave up because they seen someone better. Keep practicing and youll get good

[armandahammer]

@pitrik looooooove it

[BurialWarlock]

@TheRussloner Don't give up!! Use it as inspiration. Think if you keep practicing you can be this good one day!

[deepfreez09]

my guitar doesent do that...

[dirtydupe]

it's funny how easy this song is with a pick

[DJustice91]

@dirtydupe disagreed.how are you gonna do the slap harmonics with a pick in your hand? and the super fast strumming? you could do it with a pick, but it would not sound as good. With just the hand, you have much more control. Also, the tone with a pick would be worse in my opinion.

[tenacious645]

@DJustice91 I agree full heartedly my buddys a pick play and I with the hand. Theres just more things that can be controlled more accurately with the hand and if you have finger nails forget about a pick!

[dirtydupe]

@DJustice91 Well a pick is something i already know how to use. This technique will take a while to get used to. In the long run you're absolutely right, my point was that a pick can be used pretty easily. The super fast strumming and harmonics i think sound better with a pick, but that's my opinion, maybe i'm just pretty damn good with a pick. The Hand technique is WAY more impressive tho, cuz it's fucking hard

[tenacious645]

this guy is tremendously excellent!

[deathtoallfalsemetal]

what chords are those from 0:25?

[ajisatomato]

@deathtoallfalsemetal I'm not sure the name for the chord, but hes fingering a ninth chord in DADGAD tunning.

[deathtoallfalsemetal]

@ajisatomato thanks anyway :)

[curador12]

@deathtoallfalsemetal ....chords????....what chords?....chords dont exist for this guy

[CianCQ]

@curador12 He uses many different scale of G.. Even if there is flashy hands movement it's still Chords. =p

[curador12]

@CianCQ Actually the only vhords he uses are at the 0:25 mark....some suspended and 7th chords in the g scale....all other parts are mostly scales

[TomReeseqazwsx]

I just eargasmed all over my keyboard.

[deepfreez09]

If you look at the covers the people can't play it near this good! Plus they play with no emotion just watch Justin he's raping the guitar! With feeling! Flawlessly!

[tomcatsclone]

My ears have just been raped. . . . and i loved it!

[Wayleeen]

@tomcatsclone its not rape if u loved it ;)
