  • 325 people are without soul !

    blues is easy to play but hard to feel and in this case this one is hard playing also, but he fucking pumps my veins up and makes me wanna hear it in high voltage..

    YOU ARE AMAZING MAN...

  • yawn you suck dick

  • Is He Chuck Norris??

  • Wow! Wasn't sure at first but then when he really got into it. This is phenomenal.

  • damn, this guy rocks ! so much feeling.

  • just look at michael angelo then you know how is good

  • how the fuck do 323 people dislike this? he rapes that guitar. im surprised the neck didnt fall off

  • The best are JIMI HENDRIX

  • this dude is great and whoever said kirk hammond does this in his sleep is completely retarded.

  • your good but deff not the best like shit kirt hammet does this in his sleep

  • Geez mate, thanks a lot. I am now going to sell my guitar and amp and cut off my hands.

  • is that guitar 18?

  • He is a good guitarist!!!!

    ....It takes a guitarist and a REAL musician to critique!

  • My dads beter than this guy...

  • Best guitarist?Hardly...

  • this is how you mix blues and shredding into one... done very nicely

    

  • Sungha Jung.

  • @iiSammmmx Sucks balls.

  • @TheEpicion Yep of course he does...

  • @iiSammmmx He does =/

  • @TheEpicion Well to me this sucks balls. I have not very much interest in a guy doing some crazy solo. Yeah I love guitar and play it myself, but to me Sungha Jung is one of the best in the world (personal Opinion) but you cannot says he sucks ball because it's not true he is a talented record selling artist. You can say you dis like him but not that he sucks balls.

  • @iiSammmmx I happily take my words back. Perhaps saying he sucks balls is going a step too far, he is talented. However I myself do not find him that unique, and my words that followed were primarily due to it. I'm sure one may feel the same way if they claimed Lil Wayne is one of the best guitarists in the world.

  • @TheEpicion Haha yeah fair enough, as much as I like Lil Wayne I don't thin his guitar skills are to the standard of sungha and this guy;)

  • eso q ???

  • I wish I was there smoking what I smoke, and drinking what I drink. Maaen it would be raaad :)

  • I listen sometimes the second improvisation over the last year. It is very beautiful. However, the other works of Zabek on the scene are not so impressive.

  • I Am The Big Bad Wolf

  • She cheat on you cause she didn,t know what the real music is....

    Man you are fantastic!!!

  • this guy is really good i mean really good but to label as the best guitarist in the world is very farfetched. I don't believe anyone can be ladled this because it all depends on opinion.

  • Super speed fingers !

  • Booby Z ain't no slouch ! What's the deal with the reverb though ? Knob stuck on 100% ?

  • WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

    

  •  nice

  • He really play guitar very well........but still very far from best in the world...........but i really appreciate him :)

  • danny gatton

  • Dude is very good!

  • it like Angus Young and Eddie Van Hallen had a baby together.

  • He is great. But not the best. SRV, BB King, Hendrix, Joe Perry, Peter Frampton, Eric Clapton, Buddy Guy. You think ur better than them? No

  • @MasterGuitar777 some of them

  • Man, fuck what people say. You're fucking great.

  • Not the best...not even close. Do your homework.

  • es un fantasma

  • sjdss

    AMEN!

  • Maybe the best on his street......maybe.

  • i hate the blues, ......what about.....she sucked the man butter from my swingers............and funk it up?

  • @ExplodingGing even if you hate it, you have to respect it....rock in general was spawned from the blues so....

  • I meant little wing with a band

  • I can' believe that there are people who say bad things about this guy's skill. I'm not a big fan of those tapping songs he does, but his Hendrix stuff is AMAZING. Look up that voodoo child with a band. Fuckin' great. And this thing in 'video responses' is amazing. His feel is great, technique perfect, and so is his tone. Keep it up man, you rock...

  • Well, i know 10 year old kids who can do all this stuff with decent tone and some real skill. They also have some idea of what they are actually playing. Something tells me this cat can't tell you the difference between a major 7 chord and a sus 4 chord. Kinda lame actually, and hardly "the best in the world..." Get a gig dude...!

  • fuckin nice!!

  • Chuck Norris can make this guy kill himself by playing guitar with his beard on a First Act acoustic guitar

  • Comment removed

  • One of a million shredders who have all the chops in the world and yet, don't say a thing. And his tone is positively horrifying. Grating.

  • Well Bob, you're pretty good...why are you screwing around with solo videos on utube? Shouldn't you be out making money in someone's band?

  • Up late, smoking a little weed and playing..nice...

  • Also known as, you are bob, you put this up, you're pretending that a friend put it up. And, last but not least, it's mediocre.

  • There is no best guitarist in the world. Every guitarist has his own style. Every guitarist is the best in his style. And if there was a "best guitarist", it would not be him.

  • Beautiful dude. This century's answer to Peter Green.

  • whether hes the best or not. Hes pretty damn good.

  • best guitarist ever is SHAWN LANE!.

  • @sjdss

    somebody knows what he is talking about.

  • @Fluffypopcicle saw shawn play when i was growing up in memphis! its hard to find anyone like him im sure some guitarist are close!

  • @sjdss

    i don't think anybody beats shawn personally, but i think guthrie govan, buckethead, and kik loureiro are the closest. guthrie is THE improv king and highly technical and versatile, buckethead is the creativity king coming out with at least 4 albums a year, none sounding like one before it, plus work with others and has well over 20 genres of music under his belt, and kiko is also extremely versatile and creative, and is the one that has the best band work out of the 3 by far.

  • @sjdss

    continuing: oh, wait a second, if you're talking about somebody that SOUNDS like him then you need to look up allan holdsworth. you should immediately notice how much allan impacted shawn.

  • @Fluffypopcicle i know who he is! shawn was better! many guitarist are better than their influences!

  • @sjdss

    of course, did you read my other comment? i just said that allan sounded like shawn in quite a few ways.

  • @Fluffypopcicle no doubt allan holdsworth also influenced EVH most people dont know who he is also have heard he was influenced by peter green!

  • come on guys, be nice, the guy is trying to make a name for himself and he certainly has the talent required. He is actually a much better guitar player than most names mentioned including Clapton. But he lacks the feelings. Understandably he is just showing his prowess at this point. I am sure it will come in due time if he gets a chance.

  • This guy needs to be a professional musician.He's got a very nice groove to him.I wouldn't call him the best.But there sure as hell isn't anyone that will make this guy look bad.He's good enough to the point that if anyone is thought to be better,it won't be very obvious at all.I hear some Hendrix in there,some Van Halen,and Vai.This guy has learned from the right guys..

  • Not the best guitarist in the world. He fucking sucks.

  • @1994Jordynn And you sir, are a fucking dumbass.

  • @sdog1234 Nice comeback, sir.

  • Im sure dimebag darrell is better then him. No,no your not the best. No where close the fact that you put best is fucking stupid. But he is the best at humilating every fucking guitar god out there thats way,better then this shit

  • HEMM...WELL..IF I AM EVER ABLE TO "PLAY" LIKE THIS GUY PLAYS, IT WOULD AT LEAST JUSTIFY ALL THE TIME AND EFFORT I COULD EVER MUSTER AFTER YEARS OF PLAYING "HOBBY GUITAR", PERSONALLY I JUST DO NOT THINK OF "MUSIC" AS A SPEED CONTEST, OR A "TECHNICALLY PERFECT" EMOTIONLESS REPLAY, NO I WAS BORED THE FIRST HALF THEN SURPRISED AT SOME OF THE BETTER STUFF THAT ENDED WITH SOME PRETTY AMAZIN STUFF. BUT SADLY AH AIN' NO MUZICKEL GENIE'S ASS, SO I GOT TO SAY ,HE DIDN'T CLAIM TO BE # 1 G-TAR PLAYER ?1??

  • Stunning !!! Great technique and musical taste.

  • this guy cant even touch the best, and to say that he plays close to the best is an insult to them and anyone playing near their level.

  • no taste.....linear note combinations.....unfortunatley very forgetable.

  • nobody on this world is the best guitarist on the world! there are always different kinds of music, different kinds of styles. ok, he´s one of the greatest players, but not the best! nobody is it! look, how many "best guitarists" you can find on youtube!

  • Best guitarist in the world..there are a lot of greats, known and unknown, but I sure as wouldn't kick him out of my band!

  • I just finished watching a Jake E Lee video when I suddenly saw this video stating best guitarist in the world. What a fucking disappointment. Think I'll go back to watching Jake E Lee. 

  • killer1h = troll.

  • he can play ok for an amateur, but hes not the best in any catagory, in blues hes incompareble to say eric johnson, in speed yngwie leaves him in the dust, in improve satriani puts him straight down, to say hes the best would be like saying a teenager is better at basketball then michael jordan.

  • @killer1h . i disagree dude. this is every bit as good as any three of those guys you mentioned..amature or not this dude is great. my oppinion though.

  • Well done, he can play ridiculously fast with no feeling whatsoever. Join the everlasting queue of fretboard wankers who's music is also boring as fuck

  • fretboard wanker

  • daaaaaaaaaaaammmnnnn.....dude can play...

  • Comment removed

  • This guy can shred like son of a gun.but Chris Duarte could rip this guy a new asshole, but I'm not trying to hate at all here.

  • Sorry, not the best or even close

  • Lets not reach into the "best" title. not until you raise Hendrix and SRV from the dead and let them judge you. also, you might want to take this up with satriani. and Definitly Yngwie.

  • Lets not reach into the "best" title. not until you raise Hendrix and SRV from the dead and let them judge you. also, you might want to take this up with satriani.

  • bob , you are good , but not the best , for that tittle

    you will need to defeat buckethead

    I suggest you make no attempt to defeat buckethead.

    I strongly suggest getting off the booze and flog yourself untill buckethead approves.

  • I think it's only fair to confess that david gilmour is my grand father

    malmstein is my daddy

    buckethead would be like saying my brother

    if that sort of logic continued .

    and that would make paul gilbert my uncle.

    and george lynch would be my cousin.

  • In my universe buckethead is the greatest guitarist to ever exist.

    buckethead remade me.

    before buckethead there were moments of joy but no rapture.

    I found buckethead before guitar hero ever existed.

    before buckethead I was in a deep dark musical hole with no escape.

    After I found buckethead all that changed.

    I will never be able to touch my guitar and not use buckethead language.

  • there is no best! understand that.

  • C'mon! My father can do that! Seriosly!

  • He's very good but no better than 1000's of other guitarist out there. I know 18 year old kids who just play for fun in their basement who are this good.

  • omfg Ll 

  • Keep on doing your thing bro wish I could play that good.

  • hes crap he has no feell no pasain hes not feel what hes playing

  • @HannahAprildejong

    agreed

  • I think that he plays great and he's getting about the same amount of dislikes that my vid world's best blues solo has ,I think that anyone who puts out a vid no matter how good or bad will get about 20 percent that dislike it ,and it really doesn't mean anything when Led Zeppelin came out all the critics said they sucked and would never amount to anything or be remembered

  • good yes .... "best in the world" is stretching it ..... a lot!

  • Well.........this guy is a musical talent...that's for sure...Yes he is a genius cuz people who have played for a long time don't sound like that....some people are smart ...and others are smarter.....this guy is way above his class...AND FOR ALL THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE ONLY NEGATIVE FEEDBACK....YOU KNOW YOU DO IT CUZ YOU HAVE NOTHING GOOD TO CLAIM IN THIS WORLD AND HATE THE PEOPLE WHO CAN....YOU ARE A TOTAL LOSER...JUST GO COMMIT SUICIDE RITE NOW CUZ YOU'RE....UH ........WOOOOORTHLESSSSSSS!!!!­!!!

  • Shockingly great is this man ... I'm a johnny Winter Fan,,, so i've got pretty good taste ...

    Thanks for you're sharing , I'm more than impressed with this young lad (he might be the world's greatest) ...

  • Well the boastful title got me to watch and he is good. But the best in the world?

  • what a joke

  • @Flatted357 No joke about this guitar playing.

  • 306 dislikes? For fucks sake people, I defy any one of you to post a vid of yourself outplaying this guy. I've been playing for 35 years and after watching this I feel like selling all my equipment and getting my old paper route back....Lol

  • @fattystools If you're going to quit playing because of this piece of shit be my guest. You obviously don't have a taste. Playing for 35 years doesn't make you any less dumbass.

    He is loud, all over the place, plays if front of a fake electronic drumset and have an ugly attitude (not a good kind). He needs his friends to make fake videos to get his name out. Now, you don't see BB King making fake youtube videos calling himself the "best blues guitarist in the world" do you?

  • Shawn Lane and Gunther Govan would make this guy duck for cover- but he's ok.

  • Fast and articulate but as we all know that is not enough...

    More feeling and space (air) between the notes is what's needed to become one of the greats...

  • This guy is great! When I read the title, I thought here we go again, but I was suprised. Great player

  • DUDE YOUR AWEOSOME

  • that riff that you did around 3:30 dude was so clean like i look at that kind of stuff more than the other dont get me wrong your freakin awsome but that part was just so sick like it had so much FUNK to it

  • HOLY FUCKING ASS CRACKERS THAT WAS AWESOME!!!

  • people like the music skills. people hate what they believe to be bragging or arrogants.

  • WHAT THE FUCK DID I JUST WATCH?!

  • About 1:30 into it he breaks away...........

  • and again, un noticed talent going to waste. what do 521,828 virtual sightings of one's skill really count for anymore?

  • jimmy page eddie van halen eric clapton and jimy hendrix is WAY BETTER

  • Oh my dog who is this guy??  FRICKEN AMAZING

  • you should battle takayoshi ohmura lol

  • 299 dislikes? woah thats surprising that there are people who dont like this.

  • crazy world

  • Man, i've got the same guitar, the same head, the same hair, the same Beard, and the same play as you (no malmsteen's shred for me ^^ ) ! But i'm 19 year old! give me 2 years and i kill you man :)

    Respect ! ;)

  • oh man.. great skillz .. not going to judge.. like thousands of others.. just keep on rocking and posting for inspiration to others to see what practice and dedication can do . anyone who watches this and tries to compare anything to anything has a narrow minded mind. one suggestion... the title of the vid.. maybe could be a bit more modest. just change the ! to a ? and youll be fine.... greatness is in the ear of the listner. art is not a sport with a winner or loser. art is art.

  • onkel BoB ROCKs

  • you are skilled by not the best because you do not convey emotion like jimi or stevie rau vaughn you are just shredding

  • who die

  • fuk whu dnt luk it

  • good, but best?

    Its more like he's a genius -- BUT-- Jimi Hendrix, Rory Gallagher and SRV are Isaac newton, Stephen hawking and Albert Einstein.

    And trust me on this I can judge this music right now because I'm baked.

  • @MrBabablah Stephen hawking is not smart at all. He's a dick. and he thinks time travel is posible

  • @shredr18 well he can figure out time travel you small minded retard. p.s his i.q's over 200, the average is 100

  • @MrBabablah dont forget john petrucci, steve vai, malmsteen. a few more modern kings of the guitar world.

  • @MrBabablah amen

  • @MrBabablah herman li is way better

  • @MrBabablah find a better improv and post it

  • @MrBabablah dude, ur comparing hendrix to newton? that's the stupidest thing i've ever heard. hendrix couldn't play his way out of a paper bag.

  • Like that very much!

    nice greets

    Uli

  • wow

  • I would say that it listens.

    to say, this is the best guitarist, the world!. let's be realistic,

    no, I do not think so!

    but courage is a long way!

  • the guy is skilled but lots of people can play like that. Plus, people were getting the same sound 40 years ago, maybe without the speed and the tapping..... You can be a lot more unique if you dont just shred Imo. I think note choice is important.

  • Sorry it's late. I meant to say you'd have no negative comments.

  • If you'd just title the video "Good guitar player plays some fun blues" you'd have negative comments! You're a good player but no one can ever say their the best.

  • Awesome but to call himself the best is arrogant

  • @13Musicmachine

    yeah what a prick, does he really think he´s the best, i´d battle him anytime !!!

  • zzzzzzz

  • the first bit wasn't my favorite, but hell... this second part rocks like hell!!!! you rock dude and keep rockin'

  • far from the best!!!!! ( Steve Vai, Paul Gilbert ) j/s

  • I don't care about what others says, this guy plays of respect.God bless man .Nice!!!

    //<, \m/

  • You are best of the best!!!

  • This guy is the best player in the world if by 'world' you mean Haiti.

  • this is nice and he is a great player but i dun think he is the best...

  • Defo rock shred blues, but i understand you're what ya trying to say, just not my type of what i would consider blues, although i see a bit of hendrix there, sorry fella as you can c acid is a bitch for typing key poppinf outnevertwhwere.

  • This is not the blues a long way off my freind.

  • @ukandoittowithkandoo that's blues...was it delta blues? no. was it chicago style blues? no. but it is a style of blues with a rock and shred feel to it; but blues nonetheless...blues has many styles...

  • the strings looked like they were juuuuuust about to give! xD that was fucking awesome.

  • Can Bob play fast ..? no doubt ....is he a good player ,? I would say he is , Is he the fastest....no ......is he the best .? who cares ? There are are many great players out there , in many genres , some greater than others . But that becomes a matter of opinion . Showcase your skills within a great song , and more people will appreciate what you do .

  • Balls. Big balls. I'd have a duel with this dude anyway, win or lose! The crowds would love it, and that's what it's about, right??? Spreading the music and making people happy. I don't care about some contest.

  • Just simply amazing.

  • Shredding with emotion??? is this supposed to happen?

    for an unknown this guy slays...

    Won't be unknown for long

  • @irival apparently, you haven't heard of Marty Friedman

  • Yeah Bob, you're welcome! All go see Bob's channel and vote for him at the Guitar Idol 2010 contest, ...if you don't vote im gonna getcha!!

  • @dhoeymans ohh i'am soo scared...

  • @dhoeymans Bob Is great, I am a big fan, but I think you don't do him a favor with the title of this clip. It sounds pretentious (and narrow) and predisposes many people's comments. It also bothers me that some people may think that it was Bob himself who wrote the title and uploaded the video.

  • hi i´m bob, the guy playing in this video ;-) first of all let me point it out again, as i feel like doing it right now;-), i didn´t upload this video with this title...youtubeuser dhoeymans did it and to be honest i thank him a lot for it, not because i agree with the title, of course not!, but because he helped me get a lot of views, and i couldn´t afford such a great advertising so thanks man ;-))))))

  • @BobWizard

    oh, what i actually wanted to say, i entered the GUITAR IDOL 2010 contest, google it plz,cant post link here, so, this song is my try among all those craaaaazy cats out there and if you like it you are invited to vote , thanks a lot and have a nice day folks and thx again for both pos. and neg. comments, appreciate it, bob

  • @BobWizard

  • Holy shit!

  • Sorry dude... Guthrie Govan is the best.

  • @AlembicVapor Yep, you're right!

  • @AlembicVapor Ya know i don't really agree with this whole whos the best thing, but i cant find it in myself to disagree with that comment... :S
