Daniele Gottardo - Guitar Idol Show 2008 (Final)

[Nacgt]

i need tabs =/

[212fm]

who knows what pickups have it there on that fender?

[Nacgt]

really nice 2:40 to 2:56

[PetroASR]

Come si chiama questo pezzo? What's the name of this song? Como se llama esta canciòn?

[riverdog155]

@PetroASR Si chiama: Guitar Sbrego

[enos218]

Just amazing.

[Whyrendog]

Every line was awesome and beautiful, but I'm pretty sure the judges thought it was overkill for this tune.

[ale123ssio]

ma come cazzo ha fatto a non vincere?!

[stefanorossiSR]

Stupendo... bravo!!!

[Cheximus]

He's lucky his guitar lead didn't pop out!

[strawyalan]

Steve vai,Joe satriani,Steve Morse, Frank Gambale, and so mant others.. all whit italian roots... as by the way, a lot of guitar players today are americans

Guess there's no point to disguise on this

[jos852]

i couldnt believe he didnt win

[toniaum]

@jos852 He didn't win coz Gustavo was better than him!

[vicenteroma]

@toniaum You mean, the guy that played a Vinnie Moore song and said it was his? Looked like a boring version of With The Flow to me. Same structure, same kind of catchy riffs, same kind of solo over a soft basement.

[eumemosp]

I return, I see this video again and do not understand, not even won? someone unable to play more than Daniele Gottardo, best world guitar player in my view.Could only be Italian, cause Italy was the country where they invented the acustic guitar.Great song!!One of my favorites.Great musician!!

㋡㋡

[Centuriadrummer]

@eumemosp , no my friend, acoustic guitar was invented in SPAIN, and brithish & brazilian guitarrists are better than both italians or Spanish I must say (and I'm not english or brazilian)

[dorielementary]

@Centuriadrummer Wrong!

[GuyFawkesGuitar]

just look at that bleedin' bloody little spaghetti head! LOL

ENGLISH PEOPLE ARE SO MUCH MORE SUPERIOR!

[guitaristheart]

3:18 :D

[guitaristheart]

3.18 :DD

[feryac7]

[joefalchetto94]

Brividi, brividi..

[joelogics]

[joelogics]

[chico280]

I thought that had TONS of emotion!

[MrShredify]

Those chromatic licks..

[mulotwo]

Incredible guitar player !

[OliverMazur]

Daniel Guitar-do

[RONDOC68]

it all sounds the fucking same!!!!!!...wtf!!!!!!

[inmancace]

WOOOW! FANTASTICO! ottima velocitá di masturbazione!

[inmancace]

AMAZING! such an enviable masturbation-speed!

[deaicci]

Benni Wilshire, giusto per prendere un esempio a caso, ha la metà degli anni ma a questo se lo mangia a colazione!

[ilsiberiano]

@deaicci ahahahah...sei ridicolo e non sai nemmeno di che cosa si stia parlando

[RicHardAndHeavy]

One word : Precision. *o*

[umbra88]

im feelin the fake out at 3:16

[timearchitecture]

i hate my country because america does not have shit like this... ill trade you's for jersey shore?

[tastefulphrasing]

@timearchitecture America does not have what? haha. Good guitar players? Really? Shall I go down the list? Greg howe, Ritchie Kotzen, Vai, Satch, Petrucci, SHAWN FUCKING LANE!!!!, Andy Mckee, Dude, come on, we got greats here. And that is just the tip of the ice berg.

[dromocronguitar]

33 /439 delle persone che guardano questi video sono privi di gusto musicale?

Mi rifiuto di crederci!!!

Secondo me sono invidiosi e basta!!!

Adesso metto un bel mi piace perché tanto non ho nulla da invidiare a Daniele (ahahah bella questa vero?).

Gottyboy continua a farci sognare!!!

[oOFirefaceOo]

You're amazing Daniele

[anailtonsantana1]

dude ,very good , amazing

[utentefree]

avete qualche problema? tutti gli stranieri non capiscono perchè questo tizio non abbia vinto e invece noi gli diami tutti contro! è assurdo vi lamentate eprchè quello che fa è sempre la solita tiritera di tecnicismo ..bhe gli altri non lo sanno fare che volete di più?

[michelesettimo]

@utentefree forse perchè noi italiani non siamo dei grandi amanti del tecnicismo spinto (cosa molto americana) mentre siamo amanti della melodia ()..può bastare come motivazione? smanettare non è roba da tutti, è vero, ci vuole molto impegno, studio e sudore e sicuramente Daniele ne ha speso un bel pò per diventare così..ma chissà come mai David Gilmour non è un tecnicista della madonna ma viene ricordato da tutti per le sue grandiose melodie. ciao!

[eumemosp]

com todo respeito ao gustavo g,ao fernando m,me digam,como é que esse cara nao ganhou?? bom vamo ver oq q  vai rolar em 2011..>>

[kasitiworld]

love the tone . .

[flowerdrop1]

what is Guitar Idol Show?

[spjunkie]

@flowerdrop1 International guitar competition.

[hardasarocker]

secondo me avrebbe dovuto vincer lui.non amo Gottardo, il suo modo di fare ne l'eccessivo sfoggio tecnico però ha molto più carattere musicale rispetto a Guerra che ha presentato la solita canzoncina di merda suonata col sorriso stampato in faccia.assoli riconducibili a schemi di 20 anni fa almeno mentre Gottardo ha proposto complessivamente qualcosa di nuovo e per favore basta dire che tutti quelli che improvvisano jazzisticamente sono influenzati da Govan : non è mica uno standard!

[respawin]

Ma io non capisco perchè i commenti negativi sono solo italiani ......... Mah.

[evilsherpa666]

that note at 1:47

[Herkario]

1:40 i love those hamonics :D

[aportieri8]

ottimo (e abbondante) un virtuoso italiano degno di nota, raro esemplare di shredder con gusto

[ramiropohle]

well he can play fast and very tecnically, but, doesent have feeling, im mean, he knows a lot about harmony and stuf but, i didnt feel nothing.

marty friedman can make ballads

[Freebirdflyer]

@ramiropohle Same here. Its just like dragonforce. Speed is cool and amazing at first glance but after a while, when it gets old, there is no soul or straight up feel to it. Technical is good but its not what keeps things around forever. Hendrix had the feel and thats why he is still huge today.

[DiabolusEnGuitar]

@ramiropohle just because you didnt feel it doesnt mean that it didnt have any feeling as long as he (daniele) is feeling the music he makes and can convey that fact, then thats all that matters. i felt the emotion in the music. its there you just have to know where to look

[ramiropohle]

@DiabolusEnGuitar im just saying that you can get a better ballad with less resources, just playing the right notes at the right time without needing to saturate a song with alllll your knowledge

just an opinion

[DiabolusEnGuitar]

@ramiropohle and im just saying that "better" is a subjective world lent only to ones opinion

[ramiropohle]

@DiabolusEnGuitar fuck this CHARGE MARTY FRIEDMAN LOL HAHAHAHa

[tastefulphrasing]

@ramiropohle So did you write the definition of "FEELING", because I was under the impression it was personal, and subjective. I will agree that Marty Is great, but since when just because someone can play fast, does that mean he's not feeling it? Do you mean to tell me that Shawn Lane didn't have "feeling" because he played fast? Come on brotha, thats not fair.

[ramiropohle]

@tastefulphrasing dude, i do think fast players can have feeling, but this dude not so much, i love jason becker, gutrie govan and a loooot of players but this single dude didnt make me feel nothing.

just my opinion, those who dont like, can have their own coments

respectfully ramiropohle

[liviocampus]

Veramente bravo se ti va passa a vedere qualche mio video

[orlyorlywtf]

daniele questa canzone mi riempie il cuore.1!!:3

[zapakzz]

@rv1234h, actually most of the ppl go for easy and predictable notes. this boy's note selections are pretty rich and 'out of the world '. he is awesome..

never mind boy, we are here.

[brownoodles]

@zapakzz man i totally agree w/u. not a mediocre one. he's extraordinary. why would you play like satch or any genre alike if its a guitar idol competition. almost everyone played like that. but this guy went out of the box. the song had soul, almost like a story to be told. i hope everyone sees and feels this song like we do. man its different. i salute daniele for this.

[LivioBartolo]

non c'è da meravigliarsi...se fa così è perchè in un contest di guitar idol vogliono il classico sborone spara note..semplicemente fa quello che gli riesce meglio. C'è da dire che non tutti riescono a fare queste cose

[MyMerluzzo]

,,,,,,,,,,,mai sentito qualcosa di più insignificante,fiacco,incolore­,insipido,in pratica solo esercizi di ginnastica,tecnicamente bravo,ma prova con la personalità...funziona sai!!!!!!!!!!

[AyanRafique]

I hear some Steve Lukather

[philrox427]

Eh, Gustavo Guerra was better than this guy.

[iptron]

I will never understand how the F**K did Gustavo Guerra to win this contest being that there were players like this one, not to mention Fernando Miyata... I can't believe it but well this is the world we have, it's better to have a nice smile and a nice hat than being a good player...

[snezakovic]

how come this didn't won, it's so technicaly and melodicaly awesome O_o

[CRaul87]

I don't get why so many upcoming guitarists pick up all these weird playing habits from their idols aka Joe Satriani / Steve Vai... I'm talking about the mouth opening bit they do every time playing some high pitched note ... some look good doing it, some do not, others just plain look idiotic.

[danielworks]

you deserved to win in 2008 and 2009 . greetings from Brazil!

[0VeilSide0]

This new-age of guitar players have to come up with their own sounds and rhythms. Playing good is not enough, you have to sound unique and play with melodies unlike any of the famous guitar players. By playing fast you prove that you can play fast; play slow and move people's feelings with your sounds - after all we deal with emotions here, sounds brings memories and experiences into people's lives, and sometimes they get heightened into realms never felt before.

[asxefv]

i can't imagine his feeling in that moment !

[onixtheone]

i think he lost cus he used the string damper to stop the extra string noise and i think for the judges that deducted a few points idk maybe its just a suggestion. steve vai can play all that and not really have to use a damper so yea i think thas why this guy lost

[MichaelTeIlerino]

@JeffBeckerBeck Tim Halcomb is a gimp and doesn't play guitar. Ping!.

[blackhawk1788]

he messed up couple of times but still he is good technically, but nontheless the composition of this piece alone is worth the guitar idol award! its an awesome peice

[JensHappe]

he plays with this tones....amazing

[gjmills31]

@Sunderlanding Everyones got a right to their own opinion but dont go off insulting other peoples playing just cause you dont have the same style.

[dirtydonki]

As one of the world's cruelest and hardest critics I have only one word:

AWESOME!

[MrPillittino]

FROM 0:01 TO 4:35 IS SUBLIME

[xmichael3800]

emg dg 20 gilmour pickups RESPEKT ^^

[Nilsihero]

@xmichael3800 I don't think that is emg dg pickups, looks like fender lace pickups of some kind...

[Nilsihero]

@xmichael3800 looks more like fender lace pickups and one seymour duncan humbucker at the bridge

[albeckh]

2:55 to 3:04 is sublime.......................­.

[PolloZombie666]

Genius

[Sunderlanding]

Way too cheesy. Why is it all these kids work crazy hard on their chops and still play such cheesy bullshit music. These chord and scale choices are so cliche. Take some time off the tap licks and learn how to put some interesting chords together.

[francisco444]

@Sunderlanding lol lets hear u play in a guitar idol final. OH! i get it, u jus jealous u cant play anythin as good as this.

[Sunderlanding]

@francisco444 ...that's right I'm jelous because I don't play elevator shred. That's a good one.

[MrMarcolaus]

I like this guy, but there's too technique and zero feeling here for me.

[francisco444]

@MrMarcolaus Dude, is his composition. Of course it has feeling dumbshit, listen to phrasing and note choices.  Thats feeling.

[SlimyTurnips]

liking the hints of holdsworth in there 

[RapedSnowwhite]

Nice! Who is this guy? Where did he come from? Who is he playing with? Or is he "only" solo guitarist?

[Softairguy]

@RapedSnowwhite he is an italian solo guitarist

[kalloused]

@RapedSnowwhite He is an Italian solo guitarist. He entered the Guitar Idol 08 and 09. In 08 Steve Vai was there and went crazy for the kid and thought he should have won. He signed him to his record label. He released a record that is really good. Check out the song "Cardiology" He played it at the 09' guitar idol.

[imatube2]

Haha, at 3:17 his right hand isn't even touching the fretboard. Looks like he's sprinkling fairy dust on it or something. Nice playing, though.

[leafeon92]

steve vai is more good than this

[riku11]

sounds like jeff beck

[islumachoca]

Que erizada de pelos tan hp oyooooooooo.

bueno bueno .

[squiresoft]

is that an eric johnson strat?

[dorielementary]

@squiresoft No. It is an American standard with a scalloped fretboard.

[roytek444]

io li ho visti tutti, doveva vincere lui.

[JazzMetalSteve]

He is amazing. Of all the new breed of guitar players, for me, Daniele stands head and shoulders above.

This song is called 'Guitar Sbrego' and is track 7 on his new album. If you haven't got it yet - you are missing out. This song sounds beautiful fully orchestrated. You can buy the album on itunes.

[CastilloOJ]

I LOVE GUITAR SBREGO....

[suburbangal]

I think this is very good. 5 stars

PLEASE go to my favs and click on SUBURBAN GUY ROCKIN OUT

he doesnt read music, really feels what he plays and improvises his songs as he goes along. the other 2 favs are him also ARIEL (awesome shredding) and ARIEL SIMANTOV (awesome sweeping) pls view comment and rate them as we think he deserves recognition .thanks everyone!

[dtopeth2]

definitely not Steve Vai, More like Guthrie Govan

[Kalelcirca1987]

This guys incredible but does anyone else think...

sounds exactly like Steve Vai, so whats the point?

[brownbigb]

not at all like steve vai. a little like thomas blug.

[dorielementary]

@Kalelcirca1987 Steve Vai's thing is lydian. This sounds absolutely nothing like Vai unless you know nothing whatsoever about music in which case you probably should refrain from posting inane comments.

[martyr2005]

impressive but anyone that cant see that miyata is better than him or the overrated winner....is retard, i will put it this way, i can dream of playing like this guy, (2nd) i can even think maybe i could play like the winner (if i played 5 hours per day the rest of my life) but I CANT EVEN DREAM TO PLAY EVER , EVEN I HAD 100 LIFES LIKE FERNANDO MIYATA, and, find me someone that has total control of his thumb like if it was a pick....by far fernando the most complete guitarrist ever

[resortesdelinfierno]

Your wrong, fernando just has SPEED and speed is easier to reach that FELING i think this guy has more style than fernando but its just my opinion like yuours xD maybe we are wrong we dont know but you cant just sit and write, "fernando is better than anybody cause s a lie xD Rock On!

[Kingding6]

@martyr2005 except for Govan

[martyr2005]

i like govan very much too, anyway gottardo the winner miyata, govan , vai, tiago de la vega (fastest)....etc are amazing human guitars beings and there is no way to proof who is the best i suppose but, who cares there are all amazing

guys if you never seen fifth caprice paganini's by leonida kavakos check it.....u will say what the fuck! in violin there is a clear most talented player

[cjevnise]

@ martyr2005 you should have some more respect for yourself

[martyr2005]

????

[snezakovic]

@martyr2005

Buckethead eats Fernando for breakfast,and shits out Chuck Norris ;)

[FreakGuitaRR]

@papalazerus22 ok you're sorry for not understand what gottardo's doing ...... it's a shame that some people cant understand this tipe of songs ... gottardo is a genius !!

[papalazerus22]

Nice reply and i thank you for that ... most of the time on here .. you just get slagged off for not liking something .. i have been a guitarist for 35 years and have played this kind of stuff ..show boating we call it ? i love the slower moody notes he plays .. and yes ! he is technically Brilliant ? but the feeling is not there ? we can play a million notes a second ? but it is Boring to me .. just my opinion ! and thank you for the reply .. my friend .. check out some Jeff Beck ...

[FreakGuitaRR]

@papalazerus22 dont worry i already listen =) anyway thx !

[gamergeek3000]

I've been scrolling through alot of these guitar idol videos, and this has been the only one that has caught and kept my attention.

[rockismyfaith]

you are boring, this is art

[216055ua]

Bravo!!!

[islumachoca]

1:20 - 2:00 One of the most feeling parts ive ever heard just hit the dog.

[DigitalNations1]

Daniele Gottardo's album

"Frenzy of Ecstasy"

is available now for download world wide!!

[Fluffypopcicle]

sounds like a cross between guthrie govan and eric johnson. in other words kick ass.

[ozrakle74]

davvero notevole complimenti !!!

[islumachoca]

This guy is really good, supeb tapping teqhnique,point for Italy.

[FreakGuitaRR]

1:14 - 1:57 that part is the besttt !! i cant stop watching that part damn so much feeling !!

2:41 - 3:14

[666spiritcrusher]

The intro of the song remembers to me Cause We've Ended As Lovers of Jeff Beck

[orangegatorade16]

THIS is the definition of stealth core

[loggy59]

he has talent but the piece is all over the place very dissjointed. Could not bare to listen to it all the way through.

[rv1234h]

I love this playing. Great balance between feel and versatility. Excellent job Daniele!!  You should have won guitar idol with this performance. You deserved to win. Tremenda cancion Daniele!!

[luckyluckycharm]

@rv1234h yeah, this performance is better than Gustavo Guerra's idol show 2008 performance. Gustavo is fantastic but his song was bad, i think.

[Eblaerntah]

gasatello

[marcolinobirikino]

Daniele sei straordinario e meriti tutto il meglio. Sinceramente non capisco i detrattori, ma poco importa. Sono chitarrista da 25 anni e docente di chitarra moderna da 15. E sono un tuo grande fan. 5 stelle!

[auuandatore]

sei un grande!

[rsalemania]

Agreed. Technically, he's got it. But feels more like a cut and paste of really fast licks. The guitar isn't crying as much as it's whining a lot.

[danyMCP]

technically, he is perfect.....(I am not an expert first of all)but I cannot feel anything with his song! anything! a solo must be emotional, not only a demonstration of skills!

[auuandatore]

suicide is the only solution... for you! uahaha

[gkl5gkl5]

i didn't really like this.. it's too much "shred, bend, shred, bend, shred, bend" i didn't really catch the melody

technically it was good, but naah.. not really my taste. but he's defineatly good :)

[agugugachu]

thats not even fucking fair

[mmmhm234]

2:52-3:03 for all those haters saying he's got no "feel" listen to that a few times.

[emosucks89]

Should have won!!!

[celso91]

for me this is the best song of the whole competition

[UssSAFIDY]

Da dove è spuntato, questo?

Bravissimo ed emozionante!

Vai-Daniele!!!

[IbanezRG5501]

Se questa sarebbe una giovane promessa siamo proprio messi male... NOIOSO E SCONTATO...

[Chimaeraa]

ma va a cagare...

[pesciolinoad]

tantissima tecnica!!!e per questo devo ammettere che ne batte tanti....ma di sicuro gli manca l'enfasi che ti trascina...non so se rendo l'idea, pensate ad Angus, poche note, suonate con sicuramente meno tecnica, ma che ti fanno muovere dentro, non per niente chiunque a questo mondo riconoscerebbe il suo sound!!!Infine ripeto che Gottardo è un ottimo musicista che però si è perso nei suoi virtuosismi ed a volte risulta essere monotono

[paulorcontin]

I wonder why most people who wrote here wrote in italian.... Not saying he's bad, coz he ain't bad at all... Great guitarrist (way better than me) but there's something about his playing that i hate: too much delay and lack of accuracy in his bending.... Even though I'm italian i must say Gustavo Guerra is surely better...

[arieVH]

lack accuracy ? I don't think you really understand what u saying.

[oleakim]

d'accordo con Alex, Daniele è un talento che nulla ha da inviadiare ai più grandi chitarristi di maggior blasone. Semplicemente un gran chitarrista!!!!!

[buldinho82]

Vai Daniele,spacca il culo a tutti!!!!!!!!!!!

[AzizRaeesi]

amazing just sounds like steve vai!

[FabioScorpions]

que lindo cara...botou muitos guitarristas no chinelo...mt bom,mt bom mesmo!!!!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[AlexKeith7]

Gottardo è un giovane chitarrista di enorme talento. Vivo gran parte dell'anno a Londra, non capisco questo accanimento contro un nostro connazionale. I commenti negativi sono tutti scritti da italiani. A me fa più arrabbiare il fatto che a trionfare in questo contest sia stato un chitarrista brasiliano piuttosto ordinario (a lui nessun appunto da parte dei prof). Vai Daniele, mi sto guardando i tuoi video. Spacca il mondo! 5 stars!

[pampers83]

E giusto per precisare:Daniele sicuramente sa difendersi da solo e lo fa ogni volta che prende la chitarra in mano.Non è un mio amico e non mi paga per farlo :P io cerco di stimolare questa sorta di lotta che c'è da sempre tra i musicisti, volta a schiacciare gli altri per cercare di far emergere se stessi...davvero triste e brutto.Siamo tutti diversi,offriamo cose diverse,offriamo noi stessi.E poi se si è "più bravi" verrà fuori no???allora perchè criticare???meditate gente!!! :P

[Imperium71]

Indubbie le capacità tecniche di stò ragazzo. Però più che un concerto di musica a me sembra un'esibizione di tecnica. Splendido il suono.

[pampers83]

Sui gusti non si discute :) per fortuna.Sentir dire che 20 prima qualcuno faceva le stesse cose di steve vai non serve a niente...della serie...se lo facevi tu perchè non può farlo lui,e soprattutto dopo 20 anni tu cos'hai proposto di nuovo?criticare va bene, ma voi che criticate, cosa proponete di nuovo?Daniele ha il SUO tocco, lo riconosceresti tra mille...e voi? ;) meditate gente :)

[daicheandiamo]

X pampers83: a voler fare i precisini neanche gottardo propone nulla di nuovo. Io non lo riconoscerei tra mille semplicemente perchè essendo un chitarrista (seppur non tecnicamente bravo quanto lui) ascolto molto materiale del settore e ti assicuro che non è minimamente originale e pertanto non è distinguibile da tanti altri del genere.

[GIBSONES175ify]

Ciao a tutti! Ho guardato anch'io con curiosità alcuni video di questo giovane talento. Senza offesa ma mi è sembrato un pò spocchioso... riguardo la tecnica, è questione di gusti, il mio concetto di bravura, giusto per intenderci, è Tuck Andress.

[daicheandiamo]

Anche a me non sembra nulla di chè, ormai di presunti nuovi guitar hero ce ne hanno propinati in tutte le salse. Solo su youtube gente, anche sconosciuta, che fà cose simili ne vedi a centinaia. Tra l'altro tanto esercizio e tanta tecnica per poi collaborare con alexia... mah!

[pampers83]

Ragazzi...guardate che mica è una gara!!! E il fatto che ce ne siano mille o milioni non vuol dire niente, proprio perchè non è una gara e perchè ognuno ha il proprio gusto. Anche il ragazzino che ha appena preso la chitarra in mano per la prima volta esprime parte di se'. A me Daniele piace e capisco e apprezzo quello che offre di se'  che è EVIDENTEMENTE frutto di anni di sacrifici , sforzi e studi.

[michelesettimo]

davvero niente male...un pò meno note e un pò più di feelig in più sarebbe meglio secondo me..mi piacerebbe molto di più...poi vabbè: DEGUSTIBUS NON DISPUTANDUM EST

[pampers83]

grandissimo Daniele!!!

[zoso0987]

This guy has a bright future.

[fretboardwonder]

He's such an amazing player. That song was amazing. And look how long his fingers are at 1:47

[chibear666]

Holy fuck!! I felt that. Did anyone else feel that? Felt blissful...
