Jason Becker Solo

[Fixo1995]

Fuck GOD and his fucking aids :rage:

[paololaunion]

when is this?

[andresjk]

almost no feeling

[Morenumbers123456789]

@andresjk

LOL, if ou believe so you're dumb.

[andresjk]

@Morenumbers123456789 A Great Techinque demonstration but wait a minute, that doesnt mean there is necessary a feeling about what you are playing, i can play something like that, ppl will say "wow", but c'mon, if u recieve emotions from that, its ok, but i cannot feel anything from that solo, just fast notes to impress simple people, i never denied is technique, is great, but i just cant recieve anything from that. PD: and please next time, THINK BY YOURSELF

[Morenumbers123456789]

@andresjk

Just because you do not feel anything it does not mean that all the others don't and that the guitarplayer doesn't. You can't state that this does not contain more feeling, because that is completely subjective. Just like with certain types of food, some people like it, some don't.

[amierbassripper]

JASON BECKER HAVE 4 HAND!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ozzymustaine]

OMG look!!

4 retards had watched this video!!

[Ghostman7777]

@TheKratos9999 piss off stupid troll.

[Ghostman7777]

Becker did not deserve to get ALS.

It is just not fair, he gets a wheelchair and that dick-suck MAB gets all the glory.

I hope that stem cell research will be able to cure him, he didn't survive this long for nothing!

[TheKratos9999]

@Ghostman7777 R u gay?

[Morenumbers123456789]

@Ghostman7777

WTF are you talking about "duck-suck MAB getse all the glory"? What is that supposed to mean? That he gets credit for his own guitarplaying?

[Darkdevil1584]

ima learn how to use a yoyo just to make a video of me doing that.. ONE OF THESE DAYS

[Twizzlethis]

is he not still writing?ive read in quite a few places he is and has written a whole new album on some software( Im aware no software is anywhere as good dont worry) but is that incorrect? Some people are talking as if hes deceased man and THATS depressing!

[gitardave]

good example of someone better, brighter, younger, more skilled and ready to overtake...not wanting to go to the darkside, grace of God not accepted. gave him ALS by tradecraft,.

They did Van Halen the same way? with liquor, tongue cancer? took Valerie away and defamed him? He was better than the rest.

Or...coincidence? Marty sure is swingin...with no thanks...ever...to Jason...live with that.

The ones on top today, that have been, snakecharmed...

[TOWLIBAN32123]

its a damn shame, just imagin if he was fine and carryed on playing

[JohnathonDP]

Most amazing guitarist ever!

Influenced alot of people

[steveandimrad]

i cant even yoyo that well

[pancarte666]

you're soooo right lollll ....

[MetaLGuitarHero666]

jason becker is amazing =D! damn his solos r awesome =D! he makes some of the best solos ever =D!!!

[Bluer123]

I don't care how fast he can play, I care about the soul. That had no emotion.

[walshy0001]

listen to altitudes, blue, air, images, and serrana, and basically every song jason becker has ever made, and then tell me that he has no soul. He is probably one of the most soulful guitarists in the world, he is just showing off here.

[Bluer123]

I didn't say HE didn't have soul, because I know full well he does, I just meant this single instance. I absolutely love a lot of his music, but I think this is horrible.

[Fartan117]

amazing shred-peggios!!! xD

[Smuderuderyen]

He may beat me with guitar, but i kick his ass with my jojo :P

[PhiyukYu]

Make a guitar ero video out of this you faggots! (I hate people who think they know everything becuase they are good at guitar hero)

[rensklaassen]

i do like the part from 40sec to 1:10

the other is pretty cool too especially if you can play it yourself :P

[Sjaakstuurman]

trust me, the first part = easier than the second...

[knut189]

i think the better guitar player ever was Hendrix.

[ww3gecko]

search monterey pop fest wild this, you wont thing so anymore

[Vanishingdigital2]

No. Petrucci is waay Better.

Still, Im quite amazed by this guy.

[xziggystardustx]

I dunno if you're talking about writing/style but if you're talking about technique Becker is easily as good as Petrucci probably better I've seen all Petrucci's solos there not as hard as Becker's.

[Vanishingdigital2]

Im talking about writing, and style. Solos arent everything.

[xziggystardustx]

Yeah I'd agree with you then I like Petrucci's songs alot more.

[ogtah2]

have you ever heard is actual stuff Rainand End of the Beginning are amazing songs

[TimmBoy]

becker sux!

there is no feeling when he play the guitar, just scales

[6Death6By6Metal]

You're an idiot.

[knut189]

yeah,.. i cant feel that music also,.. but just look at his skills.. I can't play as fast as him.. thats awesome practice! But i prefer hendrix as the best Guitar player. It's only my opinion.

[walshy0001]

altitudes, blue, air, images, serrana, rain, yeah, those are just scales (sarcasm, obviously) jason becker has more soul in his left nut almost all guitarists have in their whole body. the only people that can even compare to him as far as soul is marty friedman and shawn lane.

"Condemnation without investigation is the height of ignorance"-Albert Einstein

[mstrofpuppets1]

becker is the greatest guitarist who ever lived!

[gero8909]

Jason Becker is the greatest GOD

=)

[KyoXo]

Why couldnt that ALS have hit Timberland instead. Then i could turn on the radio without hearing a guy screaming "ITS TOO LATE TO APOLOGIZE!" Fuck pop!

[HolyXTwilight13]

exactly. why does the universe have to punish the ones with real talent. but jasons still alive with deadly disease. jason 1, universe 0

[xSnoweyexp]

Damn it , and that to imagine he his dead now or is he still alive ? , That damn ALS , how can you ever believe in such thing as god if this happens to someone like Jason becker thats just ridiculous. Look how fuckin incredible he played back than.

[Lorinand]

i love it when he plays the Serrana arps

[DreamEndlessWar]

FUCK YEA!

[Ktulu666Death]

se ekivoko!!

siempre le pasa lo mismo..

nunca va a poder aprender...

es el peor alumno q eh tenido...

xD

[scorp8503]

he miss the YOYO but not the legato.LOL... he was considered as a guitar virtouso at a very early age, he's amazing... just imagine if he still lives till this moment. damn!!! he could be the fastest guitarist ever to live in this planet. he's still even making music even with his ALS.

[theKRUGMEISTER]

Man, this solo is incredible. Definitely proof that Jason's the best sweep picker ever.

[leezillanumber1fan]

NICE!! but i think michael angelo batio , and paul gilbert are better =b

[xxslayer66xx]

honestly i think paul gilberts music is pretty lame i mean yea hes good technically but thats it

[beaverteeth92]

Batio just shreds up and down the same scale over and over again with no variety or taste. It gets boring after 2 or 3 minutes.

Paul is incredible though.

[xtau555]

fake ur cock la nicolas7910..stupid idiot guy u are..u dont know how 2 play guitar juz suck ur mama small boobs la!!dumb ass!!

[GuitarHero200345]

nicholas you think this is fake then learn to play guitar i can almost do stuff like that buy one of Michael Angelo Batio's DVDs they teach you how to have a hobby

[bolimanza]

mierda ese man toca mucho

[cheif102]

people who worship dimebag darrell... fail to hard to be allowed to live

not only did he steal riffs from balck sabbath... he was a friggen glam metal player

[ABong13]

"fail too hard" you mean? And it's friggin' not friggen, and "Black Sabbath" not "balck sabbath"

If you're gonna insult me, at least use correct spelling, chief, or cheif, or whatever.

[sowhat123]

and about the arpeggio after arpeggio stuff..

seriosly, you have to be one tone deaf mother fucker to say that when it comes to jason's playing. Listen to Serrana, listen to how beautiful it is and listen to how that very beauty of the song renders the technicality of it meaningless.

[ABong13]

I will definitely check those songs out. I was actually just talking about this solo, not all his stuff, and I stand by that opinion.

Thanks for the song suggestions.

[sowhat123]

Sure. Perspective is an album by the way. Raspberry Jams, BlackBerry jams are classic too. But Perspective is a magnum Opus.

[buchta149]

Abong13... ur a kissass

[ABong13]

Wow, what an incredible circus show.

[ABong13]

My top three guitarists:

3. Dime 2. Bag 1. Darrell

[DangeredCat]

k buddy....Dimebag was insane...but Jason puts him to shame.

[ABong13]

Technique-wise, yes. But Jason couldn't hold a note for 8 measure and make you feel something.

See, if you listen closely it's just arpeggio after arpeggio with little structure, depth, or soul, with some scales and blues passages thrown in for good measure, really irritating.

With Dime's playing the technique served the music, not the other way around.

That's just my opinion.

[sowhat123]

You obviously haven't listened to Perspective.

[kennethjay]

Listen to Altitudes and tell me he has no feeling =/

[gettingirlz123]

fuck yea dude

[P5ych00]

true, and dime couldnt shred 32th notes for 8 measures and make u feel something... guess it's all opinion, dime will always be one of the greats

[svelard7]

the feeling its not in playing slow or fast is in if you enjoy what you play if you enjoy slow well thats ok but lots of other people enjoy playing fast and its ok...thats just what each one likes

[rjkahlon]

My Top - 1. Randy Rhoads 2. Eddie Van Halen 3. Jason Becker

I really don't care for speed, thats not the reason that I love Jason's playing so much

[Ko252]

taking my hat for this.....

[thebestmaiden]

this is a genius

[djhano]

looooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooool

[cfaiunknown]

This guy is great but I think Eddie Van Halen is a little better.

[Splintercell256]

You have to be joking.......I'm not bashing EVH at all - but Jason shits all over him

[diverdownup5150noho]

true, eddie revolutionized the world forever and ever and ever

[TallicaMan1986]

doesn't take a genius to tap.

[1blackmetal]

wow are you joking or are you just a complete idiot? please tell dumbass

[RulaFederer]

Becker is GOD

[priest1989]

for me dimebag and jason are gods

[LPH69]

Dimebag is an overrated piece of trash, nothing against the guy, but he is not that good and he never has been. if there is one dead guitarist we should concentrate on its eiterh Chuck Schuldiner or Criss Olivia.

PS Becker isnt dead

[a7xbhsuxnutz]

fuck you buddy dimebag could out solo jason becker any fuckin day you stupid piece of shit dimebag's got fuckin 10 min solos jason becker can only hold up for 2 mins lol.

[Splintercell256]

Those 2 minutes are groundbreaking, not some redneck trash metal

dick

[jacksonguitarsrule1]

Dime couldn't hold up for 1 minute with this skill, don't get me wrong Dime is an amazing guitarist, just not this good.

[MetalMilitiA347]

Dime is damn great, but yeah Death is my favourite band so I say people should praise Chuck Schuldiner.

[AKchip]

ur all fucktards becker is one of the best guitarists ever and he was much younger than dimebag when this was taken dimes my fave guitarist but i know hes not the best but he doesnt come close to becker.

P.S. R.I.P. Our brother in metal

[a7xbhsuxnutz]

There's videos of dimebag younger than jason becker in this video shredding better, who gives a fuck if he sweeps? matt heafy can sweep jason becker sucks at scales compared to dimebag.

[Splintercell256]

Who fucking cares. I think the solo to Saosin - Youre Not Alone is badass, and its about 5 notes.....then I come watch Jason and think its badass and its 3200

its all good. Its personal preference bitches!

[CookieFromHell]

yeah well.. if your personal preference is to call everyone dumb bitches, then it is not the solo.. it is you...

[1blackmetal]

dimebag isnt a god not even close............... only god is jason becker

done

[a7xbhsuxnutz]

dimebag=god

[1blackmetal]

never

[P5ych00]

lol dimebag is better... he's amazing but not even close to becker

[minorthreat141]

even though theyre both gods... dimebag didnt have as many technical skills. but its true you cant compare em.. i do like dimebag's style better though, its a little more innovative cuz as with anyone who shreds classical guitar its all just rehashed sequences from years and years ago

[1blackmetal]

it dosnt matter dumbfuck sweeping dosnt make you god but jason accomplished that easily and is way better than dimebag i admit i have respect for dimebag but i worship jason and dimebag with all his years of playing could have never been better than jason

[a7xbhsuxnutz]

dimebag played better solos

[1blackmetal]

wow your fucking retarded dude dimebag did not play anything better than dimebag and who are you some dumb noob at guitar? are you becker or dimebag NO so stfu noob

[a7xbhsuxnutz]

i own all of dimebags music and jason becker dimebag is alot better, even though jasons cool.

[1blackmetal]

no no no u dont understand the skill of jason becker it wouldnt even be fair if jason and dime had a guitar competition why are we comparing them? look at jason becker documentary it shows jason when hes just 17 sweeping and playing a great song and i bet you dont know shit about guitar people who like a certain music take no consideration of how hard it is to play guitar DIME WILL NEVER BE AS GOOD AS BECKER

done....

[a7xbhsuxnutz]

dimebag's more skilled sweeping dimebag could do is easily, i seen him but it wasnt in his lead style he wasnt really classical so didnt use it, dimebag wrote better guitar solos/songs by far and faster/technical.

[1blackmetal]

ok im tired of talking to you your obviously a noob at guitar and life everybody on here agrees with me and it would take somebody mentally challenged to think dime is better than becker why dont you go buy a guitar play for nine years and then talk to me then you'll have my respect but even then i will never agree with you

[mmkkli]

i dont think i could have said it better myslelf

handiman74

[mmkkli]

YES!!! OH BABY YES

[1blackmetal]

riiiigggghhhht jason becker is a million times better than dimebag anyday you shouldbe slaughtered for saying something like that

[a7xbhsuxnutz]

no dimebags better sweeping doesnt make you god.;

[1blackmetal]

just give up and go listen to dimebag and leave jason to his godlyness dimebag is never going to be as good

[handiman74]

He made God jealous of his skills so God disabled him, but not his mind and music. Nobody can destroy that.

[bigmonkeyman44]

youtube . com/watch?v=se4kLitAxJE

dimebag darrell outshreds jason becker, all becker can do is repeat sweeps over and over.

[P5ych00]

yeah, you're dumb, you obviously can't here the notes in his sweeps cause ur deaf or can't play an instrument. Have you listened to his perpetual burn album? Such a dumb comment...

[1blackmetal]

omg people i know that steve vai isnt as good i was just joking this guy dominates steve vai

[1blackmetal]

but this guy is not as good as steve vai and yes i know what im talking about

[Nilli4rock]

haha. steve vai has nothing compared to jason.

[StubfingeredDave]

Quick hint. One person can never know what they're talking about in music because . . . guess what?

It's entirely subjective.

Tuss.

[1blackmetal]

what the fuck are you talking about throwing around the word technique i know what it means so stfu

[hector37]

(K)

[Revelations]

Jason Becker was definitely a God. He would have improved so much still yet. He was just a kid, dude. Might be the only guitarist who could ever have a chance of equaling Shawn Lane. (RIP) But he was great on his own... beautiful shred.

[1blackmetal]

ya this guy is good but steve vai is better hes got better technique then jason

[IbanezRokr]

i love how fanboys throw around the word "technique" like thay know what it means. Vai absolutely is not better. Vai is amazing, but JB is one of the best there ever will be.

[saneasylum679]

I agree. As good as Vai is he is not that great at sweeping, Becker simply excelled at it.

[IbanezRokr]

vai's sweeps are hilarious. they're jut..... goofy!

[MasterOfPuppets16]

jesus christ

ppl are so fucking stupid

you cant judge jason off of a fucking warm-up performance, jesus christ

check out some of his other vidoes, of his actual songs, and then tell me steve vai has more technique

[dudeman3210123]

i think paul gilbert, vai, and jason becker would be awesome together in concert.

[spoofmaloof]

the best ever

[YambaG]

yeah yeah steve vai this steve vai that......steve vai quote "i will only play wth someone i deem a good guitarist" guitar magazine early 90's /..........well.where is steve vai now lol

[axelius88]

the best... far away, i hope he will play again someday :'(

[cincyrocked]

Dare I say he's as good as Vai?

[Carbombing101]

Dare I say he's better?

[dagaju]

he´s fast but no so good as Vai. Vai has more tchnic

[Carbombing101]

Dare I say he's better?

[laxrappa11]

dare i say he's much better?

[zanner789]

dare i say he's genius?

[Verlargus]

Jesus Christ!

[stevehislop]

horrifying...even if i would start today i could never achieve anything close to this in my entire life if it goes arround guitarplaying...
