John Petrucci - Under a Glass Moon Solo

[xLeGiTSniPeRx42]

John petrucci... I believe thats all that needs to be said

[diaraam]

really a master, how to have fun on the guitar, play melody and follow the progression, wonderful stuff as always.

[stefguitar1000]

terrible terrible tone

[TMUSICIAN]

@stefguitar1000 and execution too...

[tabotabojayar]

does JP guitars have a floating bridge???? it looks like a fixed bridge but i saw him do pullups and dive bombs and satch scream during the chaos in motion tour of DT specially on the constant motion solo and here in this video at the ending...im confused..

[Conor4049]

@tabotabojayar No, I think he just sets it high so it can pull back. You could theoretically do it with a strat if the bridge/nut/machineheads were of a similar quality to those of the MM JP's.

This is the uploader of the video BTW (ToffeeConor), new account!

as a shred guitarist, my reaction to this is: WHAT THE FUCK

[hammetto]

how is it called the sound that he makes with the wammy bar in the 0:47 to 0:48??? when he hits the wammy bar

[ToffeeConor]

@hammetto Thats a whammy bar flutter. I'm sure there's some videos covering the technique on Youtube.

[Soulfulshreddify]

@hammetto Just hit whammy bar...

[MaxBGuitar]

@hammetto

Just hit shortly on the whammy bar. Will give this "wah!" - "wah!" - kinda effect.

Remembers me of Beavis & Butthead.

[Mordred38]

I REALLY LOVE his playstyle !!!!

[BeastTrigg3r]

That solo's fucking amazing, he has some much skill and it sounds like there's different genres and eras in it, if that makes sense.

Thanks for the upload :)

[oniman13]

My head exploded on the long bent notes.

[lankeysob]

yeah i dont think ive heard the whole thing ill check it out

[lankeysob]

No doubt petrucci is a great guitar player but i wouldnt make this a solo to any song, it sounds like hes just having a random wankfest

[ToffeeConor]

I'll agree with you going by this video...It sounds totally different (and a lot better) when it's being played in the actual song, if you haven't heard it, check it out.

[Blackened1993]

agree

[wizzear]

al of your comments are stoopid !!!

John is good with any guitar and is a better player today!

[ToffeeConor]

He's an awesome player, nobodys saying he's not.

[sin1982cl]

he is an awesome guitar player BUT,

he was better in the ibanez era

cheers

[ToffeeConor]

I think he suited an Ibanez  more than his curent Musicman

[MaizatulAmirah]

i agree. i thought only me thinking that thing.

[Algastar]

wow

[TheJackofIce]

Holy crap! That guy sounds just like Petrucci! How does he do it? Jk this was still sick though lol

[Alex25CoB]

awesome but sounds like Steve Vai

[m3rcuryd3ath]

the only parts of this that sound ANYTHING resembling vai are the dive bombs....

[MyzTiC44]

there was a funny thing, a good musician (got the doctor title) told me at a workshop.

" i was playing in a pub, on the saxophone.... and then somebody came in and said: all you do is just copying bird (charlie parker - saxophone legend)...

he answered: so, now... come on stage, and you copy bird...

that i sound like the bird... the best thing i ever heard"

[eingram21]

i love the song, and he is such a beast. i wish i could do this

[kman3130]

HE IS AWESOME

[MasterLink21]

Just incredible.

[TAkahashiryu]

He can use every guitar technique at it's best in this solo!!!

He is the greatest!!!
