  • when 2011 came.,.,a lot been listening to jrock songs/jpop songs

    from JB to Jrock xD

    thunbs up if you agree :D

  • I think it's funny that people are trying to complain about this because he is "slapping" or whatever. Who cares how the sound is made, worry about how the sound SOUNDS. It also makes no sense when people try to defend the "slapping" by saying "well he can play normally too" but when someone like Buckethead comes along and absolutely dominates the field of "playing normally" people want to turn around and say shit like "well he is too technical".

    HOW DOES THE MUSIC MAKE YOU FEEL?

  • Miyavi doesn't just do slap guitar people.

    So what he plays guitar like a bass, every now and then.

    Doesn't mean he can't play guitar normally, he does it a lot actually.

    He's pretty nice at it; creative and good.

    And this video is five years old.

    He's changed... a lot. Not in a bad way, or anything.

  • He's just average asian guy.

  • Will you guys just shut up? In my opinion, Miyavi's just ONE of the guitar masters. He's NOT the best. :3 But I really do like his creativity, and style, and his music. Hope no one takes this as an offense. I mean no harm. :P

  • @FOWBOWZ HAHAHA Miyavi is not even close to being remotely good at the guitar.

  • @Soraplushie By your comment, you probably haven't really checked most of his stuff... him playing for 15+ years, and whatnot... I don't see how that's possible. Or maybe you say this out of some other feeling? But that is your opinion dipshit!(: I was just stating MY opinion. :D

    Don't know why you replied to my comment. But it makes me smile. :3

    Thanks for making my day, love.

    Your comment made me giggle, immensely.

  • @FOWBOWZ I have checked out ALL his stuff. I admit that he is creative with the guitar, but what he does as par example this slap guitar just isnt hard to play. I like some of his music he's just not a very good guitarist i have played seven years and are atleast as good as miyavi. I saw a video of him actually playing a real solo (not his slapping). Real jazzy sound, but very average.

  • @Soraplushie Oh, I see... Yesh (I love that word XD), I agree, the slapping is rather easy. I heard he's trying to get the focus off that or something. He's being slack. His old music sounds better don't you agree? (Sorry, random question, but I just keep asking people this, lawl) Well he still is good. Probably NOT VERY good, I still think he's just good. The word good in itself is pretty average. :3

  • this guitar stolen in america....

  • Classic Miyavi:) 

  • 48 deaf jerks watch this video. Miyavi is a MASTER!

  • and the music?

  • miyaviiiiiiiiiiiiii love youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu kawaiiiiiiii

  • Actually there is no such thing as 'the best' people have different opinions. Guitarists have different styles. So lets say there was Miyavi and some other guitarists. Both different styles. And they try to play eachothers same style or someone elses. It wouldn't really sound that good for either of them. So everyone should just stop arguing like little fucks.

  • Miyavi Is Guitar God!!!!

  • I'm jealous of miyavi's guitar lol jks that probably made no sense lol too much caffeine

    :3

  • can anyone tell me the name of the show and/or where can i download it?

  • the person who thinks this guy is the "best guitarist" has not seen anything in your life, you'd better put a day in front of your PC and listen to Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, John Petrucci, Steve Morse, etc. .. There you will see that this guy does not play guitar

  • @rafaelghd1 i agree with you a lot of people on here probably haven't heard many other guitarists ( i like gilbert the best =D) but honestly the root is that it shouldn't really be about who is "no.1" all the greats have their own style/tone, and it isn't necessarily all down to technique (i'd listen to satch over MAB and malmsteem anyday!) it's down to people's own opinion's and what people prefer to listen to, and some people will just prefer miyavi's sound

  • perfect

  • he truely is the guitar samurai

  • this is so awesome!! I love the little "yeah!" he does at the end--it makes me laugh everytime :) (not because it's funny, but because of how amazed I am when I watch it)

  • ¿Que tal si les dijera que MIYAVI tiene fecha en Venezuela?

  • fuckkk !! this man is guitar god ! amazing

    aa his beautiful smile at the end ♥

  • Hahahahha, you must be kidding lol

    Van Halen?

    Slash?

    Angus Young?

    Jimi Hendrix?

  • @Gendera66 Forget it, those people never heard about them, they are just pissing their panties to see this feminine guy playing guitar. They will say he is the best guitarist even if his guitar play sounded like cat in heat.

  • @Gendera66 got nothin' on Miyavi. He's the best.

  • @MaziPhantom You mean Miyavi is the best? How can you say that Jimi Hendrix has nothing on Miyavi? Are you aware about who Jimi Hendrix is? Did you ever heard him play guitar? Or Angus Young, Slash, Van Halen? I dont think you know who they are, yet you are talking shit about them. You are typical obsessed Miyavi fangirl who knows nothing about music!

  • @CarmineTree lol you are the typical asshole who assumes a lot of unsubstantiated shit about strangers. Jimi Hendrix did not play the guitar like a bass. Miyavi is different and started something different. That's what makes him so special. And no I'm not obsessed - I'm eclectic. Why are you here if you don't like Miyavi..? very weird....

  • @MaziPhantom Hun, you think Miyavi started it? Antonio Torres was known for his acoustic guitar slapping in 19th century, never heard about him? Justin King, who is often compared to Miyavi is known for his slapping and tapping from 90s. People slapped guitar long before Miyavi. I like Miyavi, I just don't like people who underrate other musicians in favor of someone they like more. Especially guitarist like Hendrix who helped to develop guitar playing. You are not eclectic, just an ignorant.

  • @CarmineTree Yeah, I can agree with you that it's silly when people just assume one guitarist is the best ever and refuses to acknowledge others, but what I also hate is when people cling to famous guitarists like Hendrix or Slash as the "guitarists that can never be surpassed", when there are tons of amazing guitarists like Miyavi or the Versailles guitarists out there that won't get acknowledged even though some of them are ATLEAST on the same level. Not saying that's what you're doing though.

  • @CarmineTree Let me refrase, if it's hard for you to understand... He started the craze... He made it awesome and popular. I never studied music, so no I don't know the oldies that well... Nice googling though!

    I don't underrate other musicians and HUN, everyone speaks well about someone they like (as did you). It's human nature.

    And yes I'm eclectic, not sure you understand the word though...

    I don't believe I wish to waste more time discussing this. We dissagree. The end.

    Have a nice day.

  • @MaziPhantom HUN, people who have some knowledges don't need to google everything. I doubt you know what eclectic really means, at least it's impossible to notice your eclectic taste from your favorites.

    You doesn't need to study music to make it, but some research would be great. Maybe when you will listen to guitarists you so easily degraded in favor of your bias (yes you did), you will have respect for them like me. I'm not their fan, but I had to respond to your ignorance.

    Have a nice day.

  • @CarmineTree *sigh* I just told you I'm done discussing this. Btw I fave Miyavi cause I don't own the music. THAT is why he dominates my youtube faves.

    And correct your grammar... and look eclectic up while you're at it...

  • @MaziPhantom Doesn't instead don't, well, shit happens :) Yeah, correct my grammar, at least you will make something usefull. Somebody like you, who ignores the whole "oldies" music and underrates somebody's skills without knowing his work is not an eclectic. I'm done :))

  • @CarmineTree and hun... I make music myself...

  • Łaaaaaaaał :o Meev-chan rlz *.*

  • i think i fell in love

  • I WANT TO HAVE GUITAR LESSONS WITH MIYAVI !

  • Wooow hey!

  • I don't like Miyavi himself... But... HE IS A GOD ! OGC

  • I love how he puts his sex face on during the end like "Oh you like this? It's nothing.. I do this for fun all the time" lol.

  • hes so hawt!!!!

  • that's male ? i thought he was a female :|

  • Oh look, a copy of Andy McKee. Nice.

  • @DrFrankNFurtherD Oh look, a hater.

  • @miridescent Correct! Observant are we?

  • epic play +_+

  • i like Miyavi´s hair cut..... I love Miyavi

    nee... he does magic whit the guitar!!!

  • I love Miyavi! I don't love some of his crazy hair though..... TT,TT

  • as a woman i can honestly say his hands are more beautiful than mine...

  • omfg how cool :o

    Guitargod *-*

  • Misleading title, not even close to a master. Like the comment below says, it's kind of impressive to watch for a short while, then it gets boring and I could never listen to this without the video.

  • @NorthernComfort i agree,he's not that great in playing guitar, it just a little entertaining...so many guitar players can do a lot better than that.

  • This is a nice way to play but it is a bit boring when you listen it too much. Music is not just rhythm, melody is important too ^^. He is very good at rhythm guitar, but that is all in my opinion.

  • @Ugallardo Tribal music (African music for example) is mostly rhythm-only music but it sounds pretty good. Rhythm is the absolute basis of human music and it was the first kind of music discovered by humans. Our first instruments where a pair of rocks or wooden sticks wich we slamed against each other and after that came the drum. To my opinion rhythm alone is just as good as the whole set and miyavi rocks at rhythm. He's one of the few people who can truly rock on an acoustic guitar.

  • @DutchJRockFan yeah but,chuck norris can play black metal on an acoustic guitar,dont forget that :D

  • @soloboy1991 I said that Miyavi was "one of the few" wich means that he's not the only one but that such people are rare. Chuck Noris is also "one of the few".

  • @Ugallardo I believe theres a greater sense of appreciation for miyvis style of playing if your a musician. His technique is a very complicated one. It's really similar to slap-n-pop on a bass guitar. Pulling that off on a regular guitar(acoustic for that matter) is mind blowing. Also there is a melody, it' just not simple is all.

  • @valeoncat13 i tried that technique on my western acoustic guitar...i think i got it right (at least it did sound like i did) ...but it almost killed my thumb lol

  • miyavi is the fucking guitar master!!!!!! yeah!!!!!

  • Una extraña forma de tocar la guitarra.....wow  O_O

  • Thumb up if you are still watching this in 2011 :D

  • @RelaxingShikamaru

    no i'm watching it in 1823 :D

  • @RelaxingShikamaru even watching in 2012 ;)

  • @RelaxingShikamaru O NOES i cant thumbs up this anymore. it's 2012! *flail*

  • @RelaxingShikamaru NO, MAN! I'm watching the video in 1947!

  • @RelaxingShikamaru In 2012 too :D

  • @Konq11 well, thats the diff between good looking guys and not so good looking guys...

  • @Konq11 Why can't he be included with these other 'Guitar Masters'? Cuz he is from Japan? This is just one snippet, you should look at his other stuff too, not just this short clip. This barely shows what he can do...

  • kodina ja..........!!!!!!!!!!

  • wooooooooooooooow. Love Miyavi

  • Guitar

  • Holy fucking shit!!!

  • MIYAVI IS THE SEXY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • What a badass. I loved the added in beat on the guitar, and even a snap.

  • wow WTF seriously (gets ready for crazy and crying fangirls) I've read a lot of comments like "OMG he's the best guitar player in the world". I know he's great but he's not "the best in the world". A lot more (Slash, Buckethead, Satriani, Vai etc) are better than him and although it is rare to find them playing accoustic guitar (except perhaps Buckethead)

    I'm not saying that he sucks because he doesn't, he's really good and his style is great, but calling him the best is exaggerating a lot

  • @Ogumomaru Akira takasaki is good...so are die and kaoru....

  • whoaa awesome :O that is SKILL!!

  • hes definatly one of the coolest guys ive seen and a very very talented guitar player...although to be honest he cant compete with the best of the best. Yet, I mean I really dont mind what people do with themselfs and I know that beauty lies in the eye of the observer but I was asking myself when did this "woman look" style came up in japan. Its not my taste so maybe im blind for that style, but I wonder how this came up...and why guys do it? Are they gay? I have absolutly nothin against gays!

  • @Karudu

    I know your comment is old...but that's ok

    Well I dunno much but I think it's been around for awhile now.

    I mean check out Kabuki.Guys have been dressing like women since the middle ages =/

  • @MarquiseOfHearts hey doesnt matter thx :)...well..if the girls like it ^^...wouldnt be my style though...

  • im sleepin now , waiting to go to heaven ,

    i want do like tat in reality really cant ..

    only in heaven can T.T

  • codemaster667@

    also if Miyavi really was a girl she looked like a fked up gender travestite wannabe male with makeup.

    Understand what i mean?

    :) Miyavi does'nt look like a male or female.

    Oh and you be trolled after me by crazy fangurls.

  • codemaster667@

    he only act like a bi-guy so we can fap at that.You really think he is a psycho in reallife?If he was he would'nt have many friends because in reallife it would be annoying and sad (not that i find that but the average human!!!!!)

  • aaah so awesome! Plus I love his guitar. Looks almost as good as he does.

  • @turniphead14

    you think he looks good? he looks like a pile of shit that's been eaten by a camel and then pooped out again.

    that and he looks like a girl... and he's bi...

    BUT he can play guitar :D

  • i wish i can do that! O.O

  • :DDDD i just fainted!

  • now i think i know what he does when his fingers are itchy LOL

  • i hate how it (doesnt know if its a girl or a boy) looks, but it was talented

  • @mr91skuttis miyavi is a man and he is very handsome. and yes he is very talented

  • WOW!!!

  • He just made that guitar his bitch XD

  • @yourworstdaydream that guitar was his bitch before he played it

  • he is a ninja on guitar

  • @podisracer true

  • @arthus123

    grow up kiddo ...

    I can't believe that there are still such ignorant fools like you ... but what else should I expect from someone whose ancestors were condemned criminals .... a nice history you have.

    so you threat people by their origin, right ? .... you racist bastard !

  • there are obviously beter guitarists than him out there, but i do like his style a lot

  • i loved his mini whisper scream thing at the end haha!

  • Miyavi and Slash are entirely different from the music they play to their techniques they play and you and your friend must not know much about guitarist to have to name a commen one such as Slash which in my opinion even isn't the best guitar playing I personally dislike him and Guns n Roses they have never played a style I like. More to the point I do like Miyavi's style of playing on the guitar it's hard to play like that and keep on rythm I know many of guitarist that still have trouble.

  • well, I think Miyavi isn't bad, but I don't like his style

    Slash too, there are a lot better guitar players than both of them

    but who cares? Music isn't a kind of championship, listen to this what you want :')

  • good guitarist just not my style

  • Miyavi x guitar XD

    I love Miyavi and he's guitar!

  • he slapped that guitar like it owed him money! xD

  • @Hykuya: XD

  • @Hykuya 1 sound will give him money

  • whats the name of the song ???
