  • the guy at 3:44 on the left broke his leg in 23 places due to the unstoppable power of Loomis' playing

  • 3:19 DAMN STRAIGHT face! lol

  • This video is wonderful yet saddening.

    How come in all NAMM vids, Broderick and Loomis, easily the best players at NAMM, get such small crowds, yet inferior players draw larger crowds? :(

  • @gnsumas easy answer: technical music does not appeal to large crowds because its difficul to comprehend :)

  • @MichaelGk1989 True dat.

    But I guess it makes it better for those of us who are able to comprehend it, as we can have intelligent conversations in our own secluded spots all over the internet ;)

  • loomis is best guitar player ever!

  • How can one walk away from this guy while he's playing ??! I just wish to sit down and hear that god.

  • @RestInPeaceDecency he went to go clean the shit out of his pants

  • i think i jizz in my pants 10 times in a row

  • This is the best guitarist in the world- no doubt there.

  • I don't know if there is a 'best' guitarist but he's certainly one of the very very best :-)

  • Comment removed

  • It appears you're trying to start an argument. Don't even bother- I didn't say it was a fact, but after everything I say, I shouldn't need to say "in my opinion". Or maybe I should so the retards like you shouldn't start pointless arguments with me? And this is a comment- which says what I think....look, I could go on and on all day with examples, just shooting you down more and more. Don't even try, okay?

  • @bastardsofdecent92 i respect what you think.. damm why are alle people taking it wrong =.= dude chill out ..take a sissi. i only wanted to make clear: that you said: this is the best guitarist in the world, but thats not a fact... but i made u mad orso u call me a retard.. damm stupid people on youtube just chill Omg =.=

  • Oh, don't even try and get out of this one. You clearly have had experience with this before, so you would (or should, unless you actually ARE a retard that is) know that it will cause nothing but an argument. Who cares is it's not a fact, why try and contradict me if you don't want an argument? Think before you say next time maybe? Good day.

  • That's an opinion. I disagree with it, however, and when it comes to guitar masters such as these two, it's quite a disputable issue. However, I believe that Loomis is the better songwriter of the two, and is overall a better guitarist in that respect.

  • @freddy5435 Michael is a fag... 

  • Nah, but anyhow, he's a lot better then your girlfriend at giving head :P

  • It's not one song mate, it's a medley of lots of different Nevermore songs, I think most or all from the album "This Godless Endeavor", you should check it out, it's a pretty incredible album :P

  • oh i see, thanks for reply.

  • No problem :)

  • wot guitr is he playing?

  • His own sig Loomis model.

  • schecter

  • Thanks for sharing. I only knew the version from metalinjection. But seeing it at this angle is pretty interesting too.

    Geez, I watched his performance on NAMM about 50 times. Just awesome! \m/

  • its good to see jeff at namm, because tbh jeff isnt really noticed as much as other shredders, and i swear to god if i hear one more pussy start talking about how shredding has "no feeling" im going to ram their pc down their throat, just because its fast music does not mean it has no feeling, so grow some balls.

  • Shred up their ass. For one thing, people that qualify playing as having feeling don't know anything about music, because music is interesting to the listener if harmony and phrasing was well 'conjured' up or concatenated and makes sense. But I don't want to get into all the theory. It has nothing to do with speed, except that it is harder to play that way, and Jeff does a great job. It's not just wanking.

  • God how are people not running over, if I were in a guitar center or something and I heard that you wouldn't be able to stop me from getting there.

  • They don't even know Jeff. Most of them heard about Vai and Gilbert only.

  • Jeff taught God how to play guitar.

  • no he taught satan!!

  • Actually Jeff Loomis taught both God and Satan how to play guitar.

  • It annoys to think that Jeff only attracts a small crowd when hes playing - the whole building should be over watching!

  • what was the last solo he played?

  • \m/ This Godless Endeavor \m/

    the most epic song ever

  • loomis the best!!!

  • he should make music for the next contra bosses. XD

  • Notice at the start there are like 3 people watching and at the end there are about 40.

  • JEFF SHRED LOOMIS

  • Is that the solo for the song Final Product???

  • Yep, that's the first one he played.

  • at 4:00 come two chicks...lucky jeff :P

  • haha I doubt those chicks could process the speed of those notes, they are more like, " I wonder how much this goofy lookin guy is making..".

  • i'd be willing to give one testicle, one kidney and work as a carbage collector if it meant i could play like loomis.

  • i think everyone who watched that, thought fuck i may as well give up coz i'm Never gonna be that good lol

  • I never feel that way when I listen my fav guitarists. its only inspires to pick up guitar and try harder and harder..

  • i really agree with you on that dude ! i'm always laughin when me and my friends listen to a good guitarist and they say: he's a motherfucker, fuck off i stop playing guitar lol ! when i see a good guitar player it inspire me to practice and practice and become like them lol long live the optimists :P

  • I am so not an optimist, but my opinion is exactly the same.

  • gues your're born with it or not if not you can hardly come close or come close cause you want it so bad,but creativity and good music is from the insade and inside your're head like a presonal jukebox that you inventaully can turn on.

  • loomis is alright but drake bell blows him out of the water

  • lol!

  • ya drake bell is scary good

  • drake bell turns my skin inside out when he hits that g chord LOLZ

  • jeff's one of the best sweep pickers ever. not to mention he plays a 7-string to

  • 4:12 - 5:20 is just unbelievable

  • i think he got six fingers, eh? just f-ing unbelievable you're right

  • What shreders are doing something new and different??? Any takers??? How about that swedish dude?? He's pretty original. Not really anything new here. Not trying to dis Jeff but sameold song and dance. Really hard not to listen to though.  So yeah, this dude is rocking the shit on this one.

  • I still get chills from hearing his sweeps in TGE and lord knows I've listened to it hundreds of times... such a damn good writer

  • i know what u mean...

  • the river dragon has come, souls wash away!

  • Namm is the strangest place on Earth for any musician to be.

    Merchandise and music meet in a cesspool with merchandising winning.

  • heh

  • i bet jeff nailed those 2 chicks after he shredded this out

  • wanna bet..that dude is nasty!

  • haha dude guitar skill doesnt get you chicks im in a band. sure theyre impressed while youre playing but at the end of the show theyre just gonna leave with some hot preppy dude/

  • lol well then, sucks to be you. it doesnt work like that for the rest of us

  • well maybe youre better looking. thats what they care about, the guitar is just a bonus.

  • all the guitar does is eliminate the need for flirting

  • its pretty much the foreplay

  • yeah but you know what women say about guitarists...

    they're great with their fingers.

  • no you smack her in the face with your guitar and drag her home and fuck her.

  • haha good idea. i have a Dean ML those beasts can do allot of damage to a person.

  • HAHAHAHA

    funny shit man

  • why do you think they call it an axe

  • why do you think they call it an "axe wound"

  • Too right, man. Happens often. That's why i just stick to my one girl.

  • At 4:03 you see those 2 girls talking, obviously they were talking about how wet he was making them with his playing...so wet in fact that one had to leave and change:-P

  • Jeff is the man, that is tasteful shred...not senseless wanking like some guitarists do

  • is this guy even human?

  • no he is god, no question

  • born solo at 2:50 owns.

  • Fuckin right!

  • guitar players are like football teams...man, if you say something a fan doesn't like, Satan shits a stream of scalding diarrhea down on their faces. I love how pissed people get. With that said, this dude is fantastic. If you go to his website you can find an audio clip of his playing at age 16. It is badass...and for 16, stunning.

  • at 2:44 the guy on the left is actually showing his buddy how big of a boner he got from that

  • hahahahaha thats so funny

  • what song is this?

  • theres about 15 diffrent songs/solos in this. so im not sure :)

  • that atonal lick in the born solo makes me wet! -jonny

  • born solo = fucking insane

  • i've watched this video and it's dupicates so many times, jeff is fucking badass!

  • god damn those arpegios of yours jeff!!!!!! i hate u!!!!! i will smash my guitar

  • I watched this video then threw my AMP and Guitar out the window...im not worthy.

  • That section of "Born" is the shit.

  • I thought he was a 1000 takes in the studio kind of artist I WAS SO WRONG!! he is freaking perfect

  • Haha that is Alexi L my friend, not Jeff.

  • No it's not, Foo

  • wtf man! are you retarded?

  • fag

  • your just jealous!if he's such a fag why are you watching this vid? you probably suck balls at playing don't you? so you have to go around ripping on people that you know would roll you up and smoke you! faggot bitch!

  • wait what i didnt call jeff a fag i was responding to someone who was rippin on him

  • mother fucker i highly doubt you can play at all i bet you play alternative or some else just as gay

  • That pedal or amplifier it uses ???

  • Haha I love it when he throws up the sign during the solo lol

  • Schecter is the shit. I love my C-1+

  • jeff loomis shits on Dragonforce

  • you're right dude

  • was there ever any doubt of that to begin with haha, I don't ever think of them as even comparable

  • Forever more! My new favorite guitarist!

  • 0:47- 0:57 best part :) sick bend

  • Are those prs guitars behind him? dont really look like Schecter on the wall

  • PRS, ugly?

    lol

  • Okay people Schecter in my opinion is like the prs of metal guitars they're simply the best and prs' are simply what they are the best for blues and classic rock. End o' story.

  • i know it's only our opinions, but schecter makes awesome guitars. i have a cheap one and it's built extremely well, and i intend to get a high end one soon, possibly jeff loomis' model.

  • So your saying the Paul Allender model is ugly. Don't diss PRS.

  • STFU fagn0zzle...What a tool - I bet you loooooooove slipknot hehe.....

  • those chicks r just like "what i wonder what those fingers could do...."

  • so does he play PRS' or wat is that?

  • He play his Signature Jeff Loomis 7-string Schecter guitar.

  • what is the name of the song????

  • Final product

  • Its final product, then the river dragon has come, then born then, this godless endeavor with seamless transition between them all

  • ugh look at those chicks in the background...a couple of drag queens

  • I love how he attracts people by playing born and then godless endeavor, the room is like completely filled in a matter of minutes :D

  • or as some people us the drop tuning on the low B

  • when u step it down .

    u can get the A D G B E A D

    5 string bass tuned to A

  • Fucking God.... He's from another galaxy

  • the born solo gives me goosebumps every time i hear it

  • 10 bucks says jeff boned both those chicks after the gig.

  • $20.00 says the guy in the Iron Maiden shirt @ 3:14 XD

  • I love how you can see the crowd stedily get bigger around him as he gets into more technical stuff XD

  • tasty bend at :40

  • haha jeff sneaks in a devil horn at about 3:24

  • man what a monster

  • This solo is from track 2 of This Godless Endeavor.Called final product.

  • Is this Enemies of Reality?

  • Echainems = Absolute fail.

  • Seves strings are the best gift god has ever gives us :)

  • I'll second that. 7 strings restore my faith.

  • why the fuck do people use 7 strings anyway? why the hell not just 6? i dont get it.

  • Because you get toa whole new level of guitar playing by having more strings.

    It's like adding a new room to your house; You get more out of it!

  • Very true!

  • fuck im gonna die, better get as good as loomis! this dude is sick, nice

  • I saw Nevermore live once and they were saying something about god, so I shouted "Who needs god!? We have Jeff Loomis!" Jeff pounded my fist. It was amazing.

  • people never bother to think what if jesus liked metal

  • He'd like this!!

  • Jesus would definitely listen to Nevermore!

  • mantaf nih Jeff Loomis

    salam metal \m/

  • Jeff is an amazing player. So much style and great vibrato.

    Why bother comparing guitarists? Just listen to the damn music and judge that, not who's stuff is harder.

  • is this the second coming of christ?

  • hes pretty good, but i dont really like his sound?? i dunno i just dont like him that much. hes good tho

  • at 4:04, are those hot chicks jeffs groupies or staff at namm. this namm demo is so sick. Loomis is so underrated he is fukin KILLER!

  • anyone know what kind of axe he is playing? from here the headstck kinda looks like a ernie ball but I think I see 3 tuners on the other side. so prob not.

  • Schecter Jeff Loomis Signature Guitar

  • thanks man.

  • We're not worthy! We're not worthy!!

  • whats the name of this song?

  • It's a medley of a load of songs, unfortunately I can't name most/all of them from memory so someone else will have to help you there.

  • 1st Final Product 0:08

    2nd The River dragon has come 1:04

    3rd Born 2:06

    4th This Godless Endeavor 3:40

  • What on errt is going on then here... seems the more you widdle the more any musicality disappears up your locked nuts... who cares who is better than who...?

  • gilbert is definitely more diverse and melodic. its hard to say who is better for sure. like comparing shred apples to shred oranges in my opinion.

  • Broderick is better

  • i dont think broderick is better in general. but he does have upper hand with his 8 finger tapping shiz haha that stuff is sweeet

  • I agree that Broderick's technique seems much better; more relaxed and refined but it's difficult to say just exactly how good he really is because there is little to no original material out there with Broderick's name on it.
