Guthrie Govan - Sevens

[dimedizzle]

0:10 he sees you

[CJNahuway]

Guthrie Govan is the best allround guitarplayer of the world.He can play every different style of music.

[guitar5289]

He is one of my favorite guitarists now!!

[Ilove11Paramore]

Everyone if you look closely, you can see the pick of destiny ! :)

[cnarro890]

is not the same thing over and over i listen to his cd 9 times and iam proud

[blankplanet]

alright he really has to record a new record, im tired of hearing same stuff over and over

[Timmonsec]

@blankplanet then listen to something else asswipe, theres a reason for not launching record after record... hes a fucking legend with only one album and youtube as his window... I WONT EVER BE TIRED OF HEARING GUTHRIE GOVAN (SPECIALLY THIS SONG), and i bet his saving this next new album (which i heard its coming mid 2011) to save us from a total stroke from the awesomeness...

[blankplanet]

@Timmonsec hey, chill out dude and cut down on the swearing. i dont give a shit about how YOU will never be tired of it but i am. thanks for the info about 2011, fuck you and dont reply to this message.

[Timmonsec]

@blankplanet ?... yeah that would make me shut up... lol, im amused by your ignorance, but anyhow settle down and just dont post idiotic comments like "im tired of hearing the same songs all over again", specially on a govan video... ;)... have a nice day my retarded friend!

[blankplanet]

@Timmonsec idiotic comments like "im tired of hearing the same songs all over again". you are an idiot if you think its idiotic. i think you are just bored dead in your real and internet life so you pick on every little think that offends your idols. i am gonna fuck off now and forget i even had this conversation. tata loser!

[gitarmats]

It's like he's gotten better in each video I see...

Guthrie is amazing!

[vheadfacelegs]

this is a pretty cool version

[bodomcovers09]

Fives and Sevens :D lol

He rocks!

[robostomo1]

@bodomcovers09 fyi they refer to each songs time signature

[leozingy]

I'm going to his concert next week. Can't wait!!!

[beefsupreme420]

He is not human, HOW does he do that? I have NEVER heard such disgustingly awesome sounds come out of guitar he is FUCKING AMAZING! I second what UncleRob199 said, Holy SHIT!

[v2vroth]

@beefsupreme420 I agree he is the Hendrix deluxe of his era.

[Timmonsec]

@v2vroth And i know its a pointless argue, but i would really Guthrie (along with Shawn Lane) may be the most complete and versatile guitar player in history... besides hes pretty much the coolest and the most humble person on earth...

[v2vroth]

@Timmonsec Amen! :>)

[Darrell1977]

This piece has everything - amazing!

[chesshirecat2]

*carcass

alright. it might not be a capo, but they does he have to move it around then?

[jamo387]

@chesshirecat2 I would guess that the lower it is in the neck, the more room the strings have to vibrate. If he's tapping up high, he would want to move it up. Similarly, if he plays down low, it has to get out of the way so he slides it down the neck.

[chesshirecat2]

he's moving a capo all over the neck while he plays too! 0_o wow.

[CarcassRot]

@chesshirecat2

Its not a capo.

most likely a hairtie or something to dampen extra strings when soloing.

[BlueBuddha]

its a hair band. its not a capo. its for the tapping sections to dampen open strings. trust me, I've had lessons with Guthrie.

[bnapoleonc123]

@BlueBuddha You had lesson with Guthrie?? I hate you :) lol

[BlueBuddha]

@bnapoleonc123 :) He teaches at the Brighton Institute of Modern Music (degree students only usually) I had lessons with him every week for 2 terms :P

[bnapoleonc123]

@BlueBuddha awesome! Bout to start a degree in contemporary music myself in australia, sadly I don't think Guthrie teaches here lol. Needless to say my freind I envy you rather strongly lol, hows the course going?

[BlueBuddha]

@bnapoleonc123 I graduated last year, I get to put 'B.A Honors' after my name now :) course was ok, final year was a chore and put me off playing for a few months. best o luck with yours

[UncleRob199]

Several minutes of facemelting licks which almost blow your face off, then at 4:33, a soulful slower solo. Can you get any better?

[markylumsley]

Absolutely fucking breath-taking! His speed leaves ME in blisters, let alone his fucking fingers!!

[UncleRob199]

I wish to meet this guy, be like this guy, look like this guy, sound like this guy, and play the guitar like a m****rf****r like this guy

[thps89]

[ilrs]

[albystebbs]
