  • Its 2 more string.. Whats so hard about that? And ive got the schecter 8 string. how do you.like the ibanez?

  • I kinda pick like this! guess i'm not the only one. I'm in good company! LOL

  • Really Brutal 0:57 .. nice guitar player men (Y)

  • 0:37 AMBULANCE HARMONICS

  • it makes sense now!!!! :D

  • My king.

  • HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, I love the description XD

  • love ibanez...almost everyone uses them

  • @reticle36 except Buz now lol

  • i love how some people are bitching at the fact he left ibanez for esp

  • @clothesline5246 did you try looking at some of yngwie? malmstein tabs. im pretty sure he does a lot of scales and arpeggios like this. that might be good to practice. but if you dont aalready i would learn how to play a bit cause he is pretty advanced. im not a guitar player but i know someone who plays and he showed him to me.

  • 38 people are just mad because they cant play guitar as good as Buz!

  • One of the best picking techniques i've seen!!!

  • I want one

  • Totally awesome..Big thumbs up

  • (eyes wideopen, mouth agape.)

  • @clothesline5246 get guitar pro

  • Nice squealy at the end mate! :D

  • That harmonic at the end made me really happy in the pants :)

  • whoever says alternate picking is all in the wrist hasnt seen this sheer badassery before!

  • Epiphone strap?

  • Dat picking hand.

  • just a simple question ... what is the names of the strings on a 8 string guitar? i realy wanna know !

  • just blew my load LOL

  • No use hiding trying to hide your face off cam we alreayd know you're Jesus

  • man im really just dissapointed in this guys playing...hes alright but he could be a hell of a lot better.

  • haha i like the monkey face when he's playing

  • Buz McGrath, the school yard bully of Guitar.

  • F**king awesome pinch!

  • @clothesline5246 you can make up your own i have! just learn Harmonic Minor and all the scales for it then you can play around with it i have 2 warm ups that i made up myself thanks to Buz Mcgrath my guitar god!

  • he doesnt rotate his wrist when he picks, that is so impressive! this guy rocks

  • Fuck ESP. Ibanez's are the best.

  • @xxcannibalxchristian Really? Try Jackson...

  • @LupaShiva i have a jackson. i wasnt impressed. i prefer deans and ibanez's.

  • @xxcannibalxchristian Well thats opinions and i understand it, i had an ibanez RG and now a Jackson RR3 and i love Jackson

  • @LupaShiva im selling my rr3. i hate those shapes. it sounds amazing to be completely honest. but its way to hard to play sitting down.

  • @xxcannibalxchristian Thats true, but its a matter of getting used to it

  • @LupaShiva true. i prefer the strat shape and x shaped guitar like the Xiphos, RG and ML and Stealth shapes. just more comfortable to me.

  • im just gonna cut down a tree and see how many strings i can put on it and sell it

  • Buz is an awesome 7/8 string player, and his name makes him seem like a bully. I'm sure if I got a private lesson with him (not going to happen, because I don't think he likes to give those) he would beat my ass for asking his advice in diminished scales lol

  • ...but then again I know you prolly get that question a lot....

  • @JacksonKBH a few professional players ive seen dont always follow the rules. michael keene from the faceless only uses 3 fingers most of the time but he is a hella ridiculous guitar player.

  • how do you pick moving your thumb like that? I always thought that was a big no no....

  • is the 8th string an A?

  • @Psychoguy99 think it should be an F# if Buz has it standard tuned in this vid

  • WANKAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • nice clean playin :P c at the 19/20 sec mark is tht lyke a dimished/ harmonic style run ?? u got tabs for it bi chance ?

  • welcome to esp

  • @ESPSHREDDER1293 ESP sucks compared to ibanez.

  • twO strings to much!

  • thight !

  • uhm sir have you ever played guitar befor?

  • @clothesline5246 did you ever find any ?

  • LOOOL iv seen him live with lamb of god

    your sic i know some people that are good friends with him actually

  • thats relly good fucking picking

  • I watched this mostly for the title, but he is accually really good

  • holy fucking pinch harmonic

  • His picking hand.. holy shit. Nice technique.

  • @Stooeybear13

    There are 3 ways to Pick:

    1. Pick with the whole arm (look at Slayer...)

    2. Pick with the wrist, like almost everyone does, because it's balanced in between controle and speed

    3. Only pick with the fingers, like him, which gives most contole of what you pick (I heard so..)

    But it's pretty damn pwnage, after thousand of thousands of guitar videos, I see this the first time, that someone uses the third type \m/

  • @Spieleschummler Do you know of any videos that talk about picking with the fingers in this manner on youtube? Neither 1 or 2 have ever felt comfortable to me and I'm interested in trying it out, but all I keep finding are acoustic finger-picking style vids.

  • @kungfuman82

    I had this information from my past guitar teacher, long time ago ^^

    Now in this short moment I can't remember of one vid, but in some instuction videos I remember they talk a sec about it I think, but it's not that impotant what they said...

    I think I'm playing 2 and 3 kind of... it's really hard to learn this and yo must've got power in these 2 fingers or a bit stamina too... it's complicated :P

  • @Spieleschummler Dammit. :-P I tried figuring it out myself but I feel like I'm going to rip my index finger off at the first joint. I just watched a Guthrie Govan vid and, while it's not my style of music, the dude has monster picking chops and he picks solely from the wrist and it stumps me every time.

  • @kungfuman82

    like I said, most of the people play with the wrist, buz uses the minimal movement for the picking hand somehow xD Guthrie Govan is an awesome Guitarist by the way, Tosin Abasi has got very weird sounding songs too, which are interisting as hell..

  • @kungfuman82

    try to set your pinky of the picking hand onto the guitar as a stand, do you know what I mean?

    If you play some time like that, It'll be easier to learn it..

  • @Stooeybear13 your right, perfect picking hand technique.

  • @Stooeybear13 That is not good technique....

    That is considered poor technique but he has made good use of the way he does it.

  • @Stooeybear13 en la mano izquierda no em convence mucho

  • You look like a younger version of that Dino Cazares guy in the 4th video of the Suggestions

  • His picking style is really wierd. :O

  • @Daisar1 Lmao, I just caught that! Its fucking wierd man.

  • @Daisar1 wow.. that's is really crazy! I'm a lefty playing righty so there is NO way I could get my right hand to do that! lol Seems to be working for him though!!

  • that is some fuckn insane vibrato on that pinch harmonic lol

  • an ibanez rg 2228 and an...epiphone strap...

  • @chimairakickass who cares? does the strap make the guitar sound cheap? does it make the pinch harmonic > less harmonic? does it make his hair shorter?

    no.

  • @WirSindRocker Woooh... cool man ! This is not an offense ! Just want to notice the fact that it's a bit funny to saw this strap on that guitar (sry for mistakes...)

  • @clothesline5246 this is Harmonic minor learn the scales.he inspired me to play

  • What kind of pickups and amp are you using?

  • @royalty890 EMG 808's

  • your face is planet of the apes

  • i hate that technique he used in the the two triplet bass "parts" at 00:05, but it seems to be so efficient, maybe i' would learn it someday.

  • Chords are a thing of the past in guitar? Only licks suck like this. Dude ....have you ever thought of plumbing? It makes people happy and you get paid for it. Your playing makes people cry in the bad way.

  • how much did cost these guitar my friend ? :P

  • @penaranda1122 He's sponsored, he got if for free.

  • The OTTOBAR...good punk venue

  • silly question but do you have the tabs? :D

  • @VekmanVictor ya. tabs are simple. Just look up scales. Chromatic/pentatonic/diatonic/­arpeggios, ect.

    Also, practice helps. A lot.

  • Holy fucking pinch harmonic.

  • @Milesu2b If I could vote this comment up a thousand times, I would.

  • Too much strings to handle.But BAD ASS playing bro!

  • impeccable right hand

  • Badass playing dude, sweet geetar too.

  • John Wilkes jerk booth hahahaha. Only Buzz

  • Ibanez, youve created one bad-ass monster.

  • I don't see why everyone is getting insta boners over the pinched harmonic, does anyone else notice the fucking crazy arpeggio he does before the harmonic?

  • Dude is it me or do you not hold the pick in the conventional way? with your side of your index finger against the pick, or do you like ti the same way with me? with the opposite side of of the nail on your index finger against the pick?

  • @dimeowns100 It's TOTALLY just you.

    I'm not being funny or anything but it doesn't even look as if he's holding it like that in any way mate.

  • @GowbotFTW Aahh crap haha, thanks dude

  • @Serialkilla84 I'm not digging the 8-strings, but I'd get that for the built in microwave...

  • @Serialkilla84

    hang on, a 9 string with a built in microwave?! thats way too cool to turn down man! holy shit i can eat sausage rolls on stage while maintaining br00tality?! now thats what im talkin about man! your idea is ingenious :D :D :D
