Jack Thammarat - winner of Guitar Idol 2009

[TheDancingSaxophone]

This is by far my favorite song by any "shredder." It's just so pretty, so luscious. It reminds me of the music off of Wave Race 64, just really open and free, totally grand. This is music.

[johnsone7777]

[NicolasTGV12]

Nice tone=)



[TheSonsofHorusx]

[StandardiOrten]

Diffuculty level - Asian. 

[Andrew45stavr]

@StandardiOrten Composing it was amazingly difficult I bet, but do not hesitate to learn it. It's extremely fun and it improves your playing in an awesome way.

[Stratokikay]

[ActiveStationify]

Pickup ตัวหลัง เป็นของอะไรอะครับ

Kind of reminds me of Andy Timmons! And don't take that as a small compliment, Andy is fantastic!

[THEWORLD116]

@LarryLynx thats just rude

[LarryLynx]

@THEWORLD116 Haha! To be compared with one of the best guitar players of all time? Sure, you can call that rude, but I wouldn't!

[THEWORLD116]

[MrJoed1211]

[undeadgil]

insanely wicked sick sounding tone!!! say that 5 times fast..

[muddywood]

36 people wouldnt know great guitar playing if smacked them in the face.

[trile666]

what type of scale is this solo in?

[DaveyKrechtner]

Absolutely fantastic vibrato facility, really first class!

[pokepower2011]

im throwing my guitar away....

[coolsprus101]

I like the fact that this is the only person in this contest that is conscious of his tone quality of sound has an unbelievable effect on whether people think you are good or not.

[chrismicheal305]

you just blew my fucking mind,

[Earthium]

and to think i still have to look at where the frets are to play...

[stratbluesman]

[cwm0902]

[jowlsnigel]

36 people are deaf!

[SamuraiHideyosy764]

@jowlsnigel yes very very true

[TimCampbellMusic]

I would give my left nut for this talent. This makes most guitarist look like they know nothing about the instrument really.

[adiawow]

wow one of the cleanest sounds i've heard

[magtogpower]

I like the Slash chops..

[puyeepuyumm]

ครอบคุณครับที่พี่เป็นคนไทย

Where'are you / I from Thailand

[Peach5363]

@puyeepuyumm ใช้ที่สุด



[ZonkedMusician]

good player. speed AND feel?? Shock horror.

[BigJoeGuitars]

You are one of the most skilled and straight up talented guitarists I have ever had the pleasure of watching. I only hope I can be as good as you one day, sir. I take my hat off to you.

[martinace1000]

Today is the first time I have heard of this guy - I think his guitar playing is fantastic - as already said, very melodic & not just a million notes a second. Jack Thammarat - whoever you are - I wish you all the success in the world mate because you sure as hell deserve it!!!

[montreemtx]

@martinace1000 He was a Thai guy.

[chunter5100]

I play like that in my dreams......sigh...

[martinace1000]

@chunter5100 Ha ha, me too. And there are groupies and they.........

Thanks for that comment, it put a smile on my face!!!

[chunter5100]

what he is is musical......

[meekdoug]

Excellent. a mature balance of taste and technique witha great sound who could ask for more.

[djfiljo]

sounds like steve vai to me xD

[tommyparadiso1122351]

so there is a god...

[chunter5100]

@tommyparadiso1122351 I felt the same way when I heard this guy

[kakkashin]

SO GOOD! OH MY GOD!

[bruceleerules747]

I love your tone..

[olcaldrew]

it is amazing how much talent that is out in the world,thank you youtube,for allowing us to listen to people like this,awesome guitarist

[danielblades]

Much respect young Jack Thammarat. You can write your own ticket . You are welcome on my stage anytime.

[littlewing62]

i wonder if his jcm900 is moded..

[Nobasic53]

Thailand Only!!!

[lordbangkay21]

4:21 - 4:25 is so fucking cool!

[MrPlayguitarallday]

thts fucking sexy wow nice man

[JayDubluCee]

i agree



[13hussmeister]

Whom ever dislikes this should be sterilized.

[kabirnagranee]

fantastico



[LtotheULZ]

i want to play sonic on dreamcast so bad right now.

[ALTprophecy]

it doesn't matter what language you can speak. but this guy can say everything in every language known to man. great job bro

[mrstratpicker]

I'm an old-schooler moved by the likes of Peter Green with his (relatively) simple but soulful playing, but I have to take my hat off to Mr Thammarat - if I had 10% of his skill and musicality I'd stop buying lottery tickets.

[Aurelius27x]

Not really that impressive IMO... pretty standard melodic lines outlining the chord changes... rhythmic groups pretty run of the mill. Clean, but nothing new. After listening to guys like Shawn Lane, Guthrie, Andy Timmons its hard to be impressed.

[shep79]

@Aurelius27x Youre too smug for your own good. Cheers!

[Aurelius27x]

@shep79 It's all relative... Maybe you enjoy it, doesn't mean all will. Just because the guy won something doesn't mean I need to praise him by default. I don't understand why people have such an aversion to criticism. If one is free to praise why can't one be free to critique? It's not like I insulted the guy. He plays well, just not very interesting.

[ramiropohle]

ok, now tell joe satriane come out from behind camera :P

[NatSaralamba]

It doesn't matter where you're from or what ethnicity you are. At the end of the day your work and ability speak for your greatness. This gentleman is the living proof :)

[MultiTheerawat]

อ.แจ็ค สุดยอดจริงเลยครับ

[mattskey58]

Well Done, Absolutely!! :) thumbs up!!

[Barranquero]

Genial!!!!

[dittydude]

it dont get a lot better than that, very articulate...bravo

[MrXtremeEditing]

Van Beethoven Maked 35 accounts to dislike this video.

[pianissisimo]

@MrXtremeEditing maked? WTF you mean made

[bluesmez4]

@pianissisimo at least he is making an effort to learn english.

[50Robotized]

heard this song on eadphones when broke my arm

._.

[coachstp]

He is my best teacher.

[tiojano1989]

I'ts sound like a opening for an anime xD!

good job =D!

[mkwlord]

@tiojano1989 well, he's japanese :P

[allsport1313]

this song gives me goosebumps every time. F-in love it :)

[caponi14]

This is pretty fucking complex stuff man!

[0zzy929]

Smooth.

[Larcheryjung]

it's so good as I want to pick up my father's Telecast But .. I have a life .

Im going to play some Dota Starcraft study find some work .

Just to make sure I have all entire my life to practice guitar 2 play song like this.

[markdocker]

@Larcheryjung when this guys going out every weekend and night probably gigging having the time of his life and actually earning more than you get in a year? i dont think so...

[Larcheryjung]

@markdocker sry I'm bad english all I want To say is. Ehmm I want to play guitar but I think this is too hard to play or practice While I'm still enroll in University

Actually I can play guitar a little bit

He's also teacher as far as I know.

[0856789101112]

amazing guitar player

[JayDubluCee]

f*ck all who dislike this! this is real music !! Rock on Jack!!!

[regfeener]

5 min 7 seconds of pure joy..Easy to see why you won the guitar idol 09..in my opinion it could have been any year..

[cwhite037]

@tommyparadiso1122351 it's because music to them has to be about getting wasted and smoking weed...oh and you have to use plenty of autotune to sound good..i wish our world would just realize that their "music" they listen to. has NO meaning

[tommyparadiso1122351]

@cwhite037 thats probably right. i wish i had been around when all music was real.

[ujkg]

I'd like to meet the people who dislike this song and feed them to my verocious pet lions... Or just feel sorry for them for having no sense in music. keep rockin Jack

[tommyparadiso1122351]

why is it that talentless assholes like justin bieber or rebecca black can get millions of veiws but this guy who has godlike talent has less than 300,000. this world is fucked up

[bookguitarguy]

@tommyparadiso1122351 The answer is simple-but depressing: TEEN-AGE GIRLS CONTROL THE MUSIC MARKET!! Since they buy the most music ($), the industry caters to them-hence Lady GagMe & other crap. We who appreciate talent/melody, etc know who the real musicians are. They're competing with political correctness, "girl-power", feminist role models for TEEN-AGE GIRLS like GagMe & Madonna, ball-less Bieber boy-toys, & black rappers-who fashionable TEEN-AGE GIRLS cream for, to punish white-male daddys.

[goforHim]

WOW..the tone..picking..easy listening song..great sound..WOW

[Hardysamnin]

Shocking really that people with this level of talent never amount to shit, when talentless arseholes clog up the radios and earn all the money.

[Goldeneye415]

@Hardysamnin couldn't agree more, I can't stand the popular music of today.

[0zzy929]

UnFuckingBeleivable!

[Nevigo]

This guy can shred,but does he do it all the time?Nope,only when he think it suit the song.Its so refreshing to hear this.He build and build,and then he start to go fast.Great.

[Nevigo]

The guy can shred,but does he do it all the time?Nope,only when he think it suit the song.Its so refreshing to hear this.

[TheEnricoRosExp]

He's using a SQUIER classic vibe...without the stock pick ups... Listen to the awesome tone! we don't need a vintage 50's-60's Fender to get a good sound!

[22bolero]

como é o nome dessa musica?

[stbojan]

fucking perfect, your tone is awesome...

[lutfiechuas]

so suit.....................man!

l

[azboband]

Really nice playing! This is the kinda guitar playing I love where it is melodic and builds, always remaining interesting..

Im not a huge fan of shred, but you use it subtle and it fits well and has more of the wow factor when its applied this way!

[chris031187]

fucking beautiful seriously makes my hairs stand on end and i have a lot of hairs

[jleurgauled]

satriani and john feel.. 

[tokethebowl420]

see the humbuckers...not a vintage strat...its part of whats giving it that smooth sound.

[sound285]

damn nice lick around 1.04 sounds like a sweep almost, but looks like your doing more of a 2 note per string type of thing

[enatormaster47]

Nagyon nagy ,tökéletes gitározás! Gratulálok!!!

[ArsenaultMuzic]

Is anyone else wondering what guitar idol is??? haha

[kjwilkguitar]

Nice. REAL nice! I like the fact that you took a Squier Vintage Series strat and made it your own with better pickups.

[johnjuwax]

hey Jack...great tone...what guitar and pick up did you use? i really like your tone...can you share what's your setting...

[vidstar7]

@johnjuwax

setting schmetting- this guy could make the same sounds with almost any guitar and amp

it's his style- not the amp or guitar

[kabin9]

my guitar just got a boner...O.O
