  • This tone makes me wet

  • My favourite guitarist ever!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Shredding suxxs.

  • @Moukeaf wanna fight?

  • better than Zakk..

  • @MortenSaabye Indeed. Every time he hits the strings, it sounds like double bass drums.

  • @MortenSaabye lyder lidt for meget som metronome, ret god alligevel!

  • @bernhardtsen74 Han er heller ikke min yndlings guitarist, men sammenlignet med Zakk Wylde synes jeg virkelig han er dygtig!

  • @MortenSaabye zw bruger ikke andet end pentatonic licks og overdriver brug af sin signatur pedal!

  • OK REAL SIMPLE GUS G. RULES THE ROOST IN ALL OF GUITAR TALENTS . YEARS AGO WE WOULD CALL THIS PLAYING DWIDDLEY DWIDDLEY NOT NOW TRY AND TAB THIS SOLO ... YAH LIKE I THOUGHT GOOD LUCK CHEERS TO EVERYONE WHO ENJOYS GOOD GUITAR. OH AND THANKS GUS!

  • I wud die for Gus G giving me guitar lessons...

  • Gus. G is looking like a good soloist for Ozzy.

  • I really do like Gus g.He just seems like a more really good player from M.I.T. It's like hey,show a minor pentatonic in the most sick way you can,he can do it.I just dont feel like anything original is coming out.

  • dwseeeeeee \m/

  • @cheftoms He put in alot of practice to get as great as he is!!! Maybe you should do the same with your typing so you don't you don't fuck up like you did trying to spell "greatest"

  • @NEWYORKGATOR08 dont you have a life? whats the point on atacking other people because of spelling?

  • @NEWYORKGATOR08 You fucked up too..

  • @dimebonics01 Yeah I did......I guess I need to practice as well!!!

  • εεεεε ρε κατι παλικαρια που βγαζει η ελλαδα.....

  • cool re

  • GAMATOS APLA

  • seko los guitarristas de firewind!!!

  • Ξέρετε τι wah Gus χρησιμοποιεί; Χρησιμοποίησα έναν μεταφραστή.

  • Are Ellada!!!!!!!!! Greece!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • somebody please tab 0:40-1:00. that was sweet

  • @JGotti8844 Sounds like something Zakk wylde would play to be honest

  • @ReverendNightmare well you know the difference between zakk wylde and gus g ?? in gus g "speed kills" but in zakk wylde "licks kills" :D i prefer licks tho

  • @messalion Too true man

  • OMG

    O_o

  • I liked it 6 morons didn't

  • nasty bend at 0:39

  • lol holy shit

  • einai ellinas?

  • @omeleta97 Beros Thessalonikios!

  • palikari mou den iparxeis........

  • H.O.L.Y. F.U.C.K.

  • That was so sick. Gus G is quite an amazing guitarist. The people who say zakk and gus arent as good as rhoads dont realize the fact that his shredding was nothing on this scale. He was a great guitarist too. Guitar in general has changed an many guitarists are as good as Rhoads was. That isn't an insult it's inspiration to keep guitarists on their toes to do the best they can and be creative with their own style. You dont have to be the best just do your own thing. And do your best at it.

  • I pretty much gave up playing guitar after that.

  • This guy is God. Especially pre-Ozzy.

  • I was there !

  • Randy Rhoads was the Best thing Ozzy found ,Then Jake E Lee , Zakk And Gus are Both Great .But Rhoads Changed Guitar playing . Zakk And Gus learned From The First Two .

  • @nemtall Ummmmm, not the first "two". Zakk had now inspiration whatsoever from Jake E. Lee, in fact Zakk was a waaaaaaaaaaaay better fit for Ozzy's band

  • fuck it guys. when you're at that level of guitar you can't be 'better than they other guy' you are pretty much the same. I guarantee all of you that santriani can play what vai plays who can play what gus g plays and vice versa. Now listen to the fucking music.

  • To all Arguing peeps WHO GIVES A SHIT WHO'S BETTER, THEY'RE BOTH MORE SUCCESSFUL THAN ANY OF US WILL EVER BE... Point made?

  • BTW those weren't sweeps they were string skipped arpeggios and Gus G can do better he just did not in this video

  • i don't anderstand how somebody can't like this :D.........justin bieber -.-

  • eimoun kai ego ekei:PPPPPP

  • holy sh*t

  • Greek hero!

  • 1:20-1:40 totally sounded like the moonlight sonata

  • @deejdejayy28 i agree

  • so damn glad Ozzy got rid of Zakk Wylde. shit he was just Pinch harmonics every 3 seconds and sounded like he was using 10 Chorus pedals at once... shitty guitarist in my opinion. Ozzy made hell of a good choice with Gus G. Beats the hell outta Zakk, no excessive use of pinch harmonics and NO CHORUS! Fuck yeah GUS!

    OZZY RULES!

  • The guy defending zakk made me chuckle.

    there was not one single sweep in the whole video lol

  • @paulbateman: fuckstain...I realize they were string skipping arpeggios...now do what your mom did to me last night and get off my dick

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC Then why did you call them sweeps???? Do you call your mum "dad"??.......no because she's not a dad (although she does have a cock). You can't really defend what you wrote when its still sitting below this post clearly with you calling string skipping - sweeps.........Twat!!!!

  • @paulbateman: I called them sweeps because I watched the video one time...I didn't sit around, turn the lights down, put the video on repeat, and jerk off to it like you probably do on a daily basis. I call my mom "mom" not "mum"...seriously bro...what are you 30 something? it's time to stop taking videos of yourself pretending to be a rockstar and move the fuck out of your parents basement.

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC What a sad little cunt!!!! you know fuck all about guitar so you chuck insults at people when you get things wrong. Very sad!!!! I'm not gonna entertain you anymore after this post. I was expecting yoju to be some little 13 year old when i saw your first insult to me but no..............your 22. Get a fucking life before this happens in real life and you get your teeth smashed in.

  • way better than zakk!

  • Afta vgazei i ellada.

  • @Phoebus52 αυτά βγάζει η ελλάδα αλλά η περισσότερη ελλάδα ακούει προφεσιοναλ σιννερζ,νίνο και χατζηγιάννη\

  • Comment removed

  • @lebesis7 noap. Otan lew afta vgazei i ellada dn enow tous florous tis elladas... enow tous taladouxous dld san ton gus g.

  • yeah, i taught gus every thing he knows

    :D

  • Oh, and playing fast has nothing to do with being a great guitarist. What does on the other hand is how much soul you put into it. Zakk, and Gus both have a lot of soul in their playing. Im really sick of all these brainless pigs who feel the need to compare everything. Get a mind of your own for once people. Dont trash Gus, or Zakk. If you dont like them simply move on. Instead of showing how pathetic you are making a comment on how "bad" they "suck". Seriously get a hobby or something.

  • sounds like old school zakk but not half as good

  • Check out the †The Four Horsemen†! Watch our videos! We're a local band from Aurora, Colorado!

  • THAT STRING SKIPPING THING WAS SO FUCKING HOT

  • Am I the only one to think they're both amazing ?

  • Zakk Was Bluesy, Gus Uses A More Shred Approach.

    2 Different Guitarists, Who Play Extremely Different Styles Of Music.

    It's A Matter Of Opinion, So STOP FIGHTING LIKE LITTLE GIRLS AND ENJOY!

  • γαματο σολο!! οποιος μαλακας πατησε dislike ειναι μαλακας!! :P

  • Gus G puts the soul in Solo.

  • his tone is very crispy, which is definitely amazing!

  • woah long list of people who agree.. i agree too though all well said and hopfull in 19 years time Gus will improver better than he already is

  • woah long list of people who agree..

  • I noticed he switched out his Seymour Duncan pickups for EMG's... WIN!!!

  • dn iparxei rr mlka poooooooooo

  • Dont get me wrong, this guy can shred for days, but nobody in the right mind would think that gus g is even close to the level of zakk wylde. So stop comparing the two.

  • many dimebag-zakk style licks

  • any one have or know any tabs for the slow sweep solo? awesome

  • zaneisbest @ who are you ma, to tell us who was the best and worst guitarist that Ozzy had?? M?? MALAKISMENO...and by the way, your mum is also dead. A dog raped her and then it ate her. ;) paliomalaka!! ade kai gamhsou...

  • hes ok but the worst guitarist ozzy ever had

  • @zaneisbest fuck you

  • @pabzmartin yeah i fuck your mother today shes dead by the way.

  • We are Bewized

    We are an underground band from Greece

    Check us if you will

    Thank you!!

  • gus g is greek

    Greece rulez

    GUS G ROCKS!!!!!

  • Lol I think everyone is bashing Gus more than Zakk tbh. But there's nothing that the fans can do about it. Ozzy has made his choice and has selected Gus G as his wingman. Even though I am a fan of Gus, I reckon that Zakk was suited to the style of Ozzy's songs more. His stuff just appears to be a bit more generic in the new album and isn't as raw as the stuff that Zakk wrote with him. I think it's because that Gus G is limited to to showing his talents that it sounds soo generic. Come back to fw

  • @MaLaKaThIsS all the riffs on ozzy's new album were written before gus was part of it, gus just got to lay down the solos really

  • @Duckdude419 I dont really keep up with Ozzy or any of this shit at all, but I just read not even 10 minutes ago (on Guitar World) that after Gus laid down the solos, Ozzy let him re-do the guitar parts, but yes, they were originally already done by some other dude.

  • He does some zakk wylde, paul gilbert and rhandy roads signature guitar licks. He is pretty cool.

  • reminds me a bit of paul gilbert

  • Ozzy should of tried Alexi Laiho out.

    That would of been a pretty sweet deal.

    But Gus g is a beast anyways, at least his solos are clean and he doesn't just play really sloppy drunken pentatonics all day.

  • @Metalwhore89 that would have been the worst thing ever. ozzy sucks dick. not even gus' playing can save him

  • HE GOT A GOOD SOUND.

  • Someone got laid that night 0.o

  • all of you guys are wrong. i read a guitarworld interview where ozzy said he fired zakk because of his growing drinking problem and fired him to let him focus on getting better. in the meantime, ozzy hired gus and the rest is history

  • Comment removed

  • Damn, to all off you, Ozzy didn't ever fire Zakk, Zakk quit because he wanted to pay more attention to BLS, Ozzy said himelf if only Zakk would like to return he's a phone call away.

  • holy shit guys you can't accept that ozzy fired zakk because he was starting to sound like black label which i believe he is right. if you hear the last live shows of ozzy at the last 5 years you will see by yourself that the sound at the style was the same especially in improvised solos because zakk is black label. and even zakk said that gus g is fucken awesome READ SOME INTERVIEWS FIRST BEFORE WRITING SHIT

  • Fuck Zack!!! Gus G owns that foo!!!

  • Im not normally one to troll and bash a guitarist until I see people bashing my main man Zakk. I was interested in seeing what Gus could do...and he's decent...and I was going to leave a positive comment...but I see people trash talking Zakk saying Gus is better. I do not see how Gus is any better...at least from this video...all I see is an overuse of delay and shit along with a wah pedal...and a few slow sweeps...how does that make him better?

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC You know ,I watch a lot of guitar videos here and this whole''Guitarist X is better than Y'' is the most stupid thing ever.Instead of just enjoying the music,people spend hours and hours,arguing which plays faster ,has better tone and my favorite which plays with more feeling.Back to the point both are extremely skilled guys and everyone can listen to the one he or she prefers or both of them.

  • @greekfreak1980: I agree man...but I just get annoyed when people are like "Oh Gus can sweep so he's better...you'll never see Zakk doing that"...well you won't see Gus chicken pick...so does that make Zakk better technically? No...they are both good in their own right...the point is they are both out their living the dream so obviously they have achieved that level. I do miss Zakk playing with ozzy though :(

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC The new BLS album is coming out soon,Firewind are going to release a new record and Ozzy's ''Scream'' is pretty good,so we are all covered.The funny thing is while all these noobs are fighting,both guys have spoken with regard for each other(Zakk said:''Gus.G can play the shit out of a guitar'' and Gus said:''Zakk is a legend,it's an honor to be his successor in Ozzy's band'').

  • @greekfreak1980: I completely agree bro. Much respect for both guys. I just have to accept times change and so do band line-ups. Both Zakk and Gus are very modest

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC Right said man,this whole thing comparing guitarists is just stupid.It's music not a race or a ball game.Personally I don't like Malmsteen's style BUT I would never say:''He sucks''.Everybody has his favorites and that's it.Enjoy the music and don't waste your time arguing on the net.

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC Yeah but Gus doesn't have to be modest.

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC well i don't personally think this video is an excellent display of his talent. but really theres only one sweep in this entire video, the other arpeggio's are all alternate picked. secondly I've never seen zakk wylde do any string skipping arpeggio's like gus g can frequently belt out. I'm not bashing zakk, i don't particularly care for him but i think he's a pretty good guitarist. but there's plenty of stuff gus g can do zakk can't.

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC zakk does exactly the same thing dude

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC in this video he doesn't sweep at all. Probably you think of the arpeggios which he plays by string skipping

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC im with you all the way, Zakk is a nothing less but a legend, the kid has to prove himself before.

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC right, where as Zakk would NNEEVVVERRR overuse his wah pedal, it's not like he's known for that or nothing. Oh, and dood he's not sweeping, just using slurs, however it is route, third, fifth.

  • @FLAMINGSTRINGZ: Homeboy...why are you arguing with me over a youtube video?...Zakk doesn't need to use a wah pedal to sound clean. You stick to Gus...I stick to Zakk...we go our separate ways...and call it a day. I already figured out he's not sweeping since I made that comment...but thanks for the four one uno.

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC why you're welcome

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC hes 24 if im correct and hes 1 step down from zakk. imagine what he will do on zakks age....

  • @koumatrix: Well you're not correct. Gus is 30. If I remember correctly Zakk got the Ozzy gig when he was 19...after playing for only 4 years.

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC - its about the songwriting and the melody. They are both great just different. Gus leans toward an arena epic style while Zakk remains in the grungy low end style. It is simply a matter of IMO. Both are very good at what they do. Having said that from a technical and variety I would lean Gus, but I dont even have either of them in my top ten. Both make great METAL Music in its various forms and I am thankful to appreciate them all.

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC gus g is better 

  • @lambofgod4life16: agree to disagree.

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC well i found this guy today and i don't know his playing but with this video you can see that he plays as good or better as zacky, zacky can also do this except he can't do sweep picking as well as him, and he can't do some stuff zack wylde does, and his not using delay his using reverb, and not much the wah wah pedal does not influencieates (i dont know if thats how it is spelled) the playing or the sound, so i can't get your point.

    Zacky still rules, but this guy also rules

  • @TheSlayersBand: My point is I prefer Zakk. Gus can sweep but he is not sweeping in this video. He is doing string skipping arpeggios. Just because you don't see Zakk doing string skipping arpeggios doesn't make Gus better because you won't see Gus hybrid pick like Zakk. I prefer the country rock blues metal fusion style. I'm heavy into Pink Floyd and their guitarist is the reason I started playing to begin with and a lot his playing is blues rock based. Gus is good...but I just prefer Zakk

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC actually i was refering to sweep picking, because i've seen zakk doing string skiping arpeggios, sweep picking i've never seen him doing it...

    but in a way agree with you, i consider them both great guitarists and i prefer none of them, but no one does it like zakk

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC Yeah but Gus G gets that same exact treatment from Zakk fanboys. I admire everyone in their own right, & I like both of them. Followers of rock bands tend to be a lot like the followers of Jesus. Cool guys to follow, but the main chunk of there fan base are brainless morons who go, & try to trash others. Guess it helps them compensate for things they lack. Instead of actually enjoying the music. Sucky thing is, now that Gus is in Ozzy. Zakk fanboys tend to troll his videos.

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC The big differnece is that gus g can play some nice melodies. Zakk is only making noise

  • @MrEllinaras: Well than go home, turn the lights down, grab some lotion and jerk off to Gus G. How many different times to I have to explain I just prefer Zakk? If you don't like him...I could give two shits or a fuck less.

  • @MrEllinaras you obvously haven't heard a lot of Zakk, I'm not trashtalking, I'm just saying, Zakk can play melodies lol. gus is great 2 but I prefer Zakk

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC hell of alot better than zakk, any half wit guitarrist can play on theyre neck pick up cranck theyre chorus and reveb pedal and play on theyre low end of theyre wahh to cover up theyre shitty playing, every solo

  • @cooperbournemusic: Wow talk about the pot calling the kettle black...since Gus is also lathering his guitar up with delay and wah and using a neck pick up as well in this video. Why don't you listen to some videos of Zakk playing on clean...than once you feel like a dumbass for saying he needs effects you can lick the underside of my nutsack. I forgot this is America...where you can't simply click on a video and voice your opinion. I like Gus...but I like Zakk better. So get off my dick.

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC yeah it takes balls to use delay its not hiding anything you have to be good to use to dit, if you fuck up that mistake it gets repeated and he uses a wah like your supposed to, and i am voicing my opinion,

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC Listen to his "Betcha cant play this" amazing

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC ummmm, first of all, it wasnt sweep picking as u can notice at his hand. secondly, u cant judge zakk and gus since they play differenetly. all u could see is was uveruse of delay and shit along with a wah pedal? sorry man, looks like u dont kno how to judge a guitarist.

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC We have a lot of kids fooling around youtube following the trend....don't bother yourself with it. Zakk kicks fucking asses and thats it. Gus G is fine, it's ok but Jake Lee could fuck his ass with no time!!!

  • Gus G is cool, but out of Ozzy please...I don't think he fitted well.

    Probably in Firewind he worths a shot...

  • Gus G is cool, but out of Ozzy please...I don't think he fitted well.

    Probably in Firewind he worths a shot... And fuck you all motherfuckers who said Zakk just does pentatonics. That just proves you know squat about music!! Wash your mouth before saying shits about Zakk or Rhodes

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC You are an idiot.

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC Zakk overuses the wah pedal.... MUCH more than Gus G. That is one thing I do not like about Zakk's playing nowadays.

  • @RebelliousHutterite2 Zakk is amazing at what he does tho. Thats what makes him him. He still tears it up and the wah only adds emphasis to his style. I would like to hear him playing some different solos. Not that he cant he just sticks to his style all the time

  • I love Gus G's playing he is amazing, but so is Zakk! I'm pretty sure Ozzy wanted someone new to bring in some new sounds and it had nothing to do with Gus being any better than Zakk. Song writing seems to be underated among guitarists and Zakk helped write many great songs during his time with ozzy. I will say I've watched many vids of Gus G playing live I love how clean and accurate his playing is! Both guys are amazing and we are all blessed to be able to listen to the music they create!

  • No doubt this guy is good . . . . . . different than zakk fer sure but imo ozzy choose this guy because he is talented and different with what is surely some rhoades influence and not because he is better

  • gus plays 10 times better than what zakk can! zakk is like living on his pinch harmonics

  • anybody has tabs for this beautiful solo???

  • lol better then zakk anyday of the weak zakk couldent keep that time if he wanted to he would be gointo fast with gibberish hammerons n shit how ccan u compare a fuckin god like this to a pesent like zakk wylde

  • @finleur: Zakk doesn't do hammer-ons...he does all alternate picking...u should try to do some research before you attempt to bash a guitarist who could shred you a new asshole.

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC oh yes he does ive been lictening to zakk for years till i got to a poin where everything sounded almost the same so it was time for someone more rounded and just all around better

  • @finleur: Zakk does alternate pick everything bro montana..look it up...I wouldn't say zakk is repetitive but his style has evolved...Im curious in your opinion as to how Gus is better...I do respect your opinion...

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC now when i look at gus g i see the new wave of guitar heros yes zakk was great for his time but gus is on his way to teh top and like my father says ozzy has an eye for talent he wouldent have picked up gus g if he didint think he had the potential to be great like zakk or even better iunno when i watch them play its seems like gus intergrated more techniques into his playin sweeps hammers diminished sweep arpegios and mountains of scales

    applied to berklee at 18

  • @finleur: Yeah but zakk does to diminished 3 string triad sweeps...like in the "Concrete Jungle" Solo...and Zakk also does tapping and hybrid picking...he just sticks to pentatonics and passing tones which I think Is great...either way to each his own...I guess I just like Zakks smashmouth in your face style solo...We can agree that Ozzy does have an eye for talent though.

  • @DiAbOLiCPeNtaToNiC

    i thought i had respect for you until i read your first comment and realized that you don't even know what your guitar idol does. you said he is all alternate picking and doesn't do hammer ons... "Zakk Wylde Solo - Live At Budokan 2002" you were saying?

  • Gus is awesome, he would be even cooler if he was a nutcase like ozzy!

  • to the 2 faggots who disliked this video:Ozzy has Gus G as a guitarist in his band...and Ozzy is a living legend...

  • WOW HE IS FUCKIN AWESOME

  • i love this...the begining takes me to an empty land with aliens looking at me..lol

  • @mulholland1985

    stay off the drugs...

  • yeah GUS.G i like \nn/

  • true ! It's still all good ;)

  • at .50 he goes out of tempo lol

  • @jimmyhobbit i dont think so
