guitar improvising in the studio

[oriagruber]

hey douchbag, i dont care how good u play the guitar, the tags of every good guitarist in the world to refer their fans to u is being a dick.

stop being retarded and take JP satriani paul gilbert etc tags from your vid, you fucking fag.

[starlinginspector]

@oriagruber u mad bro?

[Alexiaden93]

@oriagruber Wow... I pity the endless chain of coincidences that have over the course of your life turned you into a miserable cunt.

[Soilwar]

I bet you could make any guitar sound amazing.. the tone is in your fingers. (loving this guitar of course)

[stringkill]

ron thal stuff in your tapping =)

[travisking1990]

Your hand reminds me of a spider haha

[RockDisciplineG3]

Where is the music? that golden watch look so yngwie malmsteen

[arcainjust]

@RockDisciplineG3 he is messing around..a.k.a wasting time..a.k.a playing a couple of licks for fun..a.k.a classical improvising (that does not work with musical concept just musical ideas) a.k.a check his other videos

[pud]

Holy sh-t.

[tomek1995v8]

0:38 - how it is called ? The song or something. ?

[pschodog3]

@tomek1995v8

He was improvising.

[tomek1995v8]

@pschodog3 I know! But I heard it somewhere :)

[isaacvolz]

I like to wear a gold watch while i play guitar too, so I can check the time and see how long i have been being an arrogant ass.

[starlinginspector]

@isaacvolz A watch makes you think someone is arrogant?!

[FoxMontage]

@starlinginspector If I were this good at the guitar, I'd wear a God-damn gold watch and a giant God-damn gold ring on every finger.

[captainkjub]

@starlinginspector he says so, cause he can't afford one ;]

[vr6sy]

@isaacvolz you fool

[isaacvolz]

@vr6sy I'm assuming your wearing a gold watch right now too, and jerking of to a Yngwie Malmsteen video.

[gandalph915]

@isaacvolz You sir, are an idiot!

[houseman179]

well sure, anyone can do that, pshh *walks away looking at the floor*

[entropiaan]

Hi!!! Master playing:)

Which amp did you use please?

Thanks

[combobommen]

great legato techniques!

[assfuck37]

whenever you improvise, how long does it take before you switch keys? or modes p:

[vheadfacelegs]

love the ron thal tapping rick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[simsdogg92]

:38 sounds like sega genesis racing game music! amazing playing by the way

[TheFunnyMan9113]

I think Ywngie gained some lb's.

[TheFunnyMan9113]

I think Yngwie gains some lb's.

[Ande5865]

Wish he had miced up the amp instead.

[barret707]

Is that an ibanez? or is that the flaxwood?

[fisic28]

buenas tecnica pero mete mucha bulla prefiero algo mejor tocado

[Tempotation]

etaaalage de technique !!!

( putain il est trop fort xD)

[vetmanmarcus]

no offense to your playing, which is excellent, but i bet you there is a sock around the top of your headstock haha... if there is not... then your playing is VERY clean. I use a sock in the studio ever since i saw john petrucci use one, so there is def no harm in using one. but super nice job man its very clean and accurate

[sataninacan]

@vetmanmarcus Just because petrucci used a sock, doesn't mean he can't play that cleanly without one. which he does. The point of the sock is to cut down on recording time. One tiny mess up and you got extra noise. Rather than doing 20 takes without a sock, they do one or 2 takes with a sock. Simple enough.

[meegmah]

Man ... yer tapped passages are smooth and silky.

[skejtboi]

Play something cool instead.

[piratebri]

@skejtboi this is cool. maybe you should just stick to justin bieber, it's more your style.

[Knukleheada]

can you play anything entertaining?

[8element]

WTF when you go ligato, it feels like you pick the note

[asdfero]

@8element when you practice all day long or been playing for a long time, you develop inmense strength and precision in your fingers that allow you to do legatos really smooth and clean... like Rick :)

[VelaThomas]

0:38 - 0:41 the only part i like

[LowTideLife]

y do so many people think you just need to play fast to be good, that had no rythem at all. its impressive to watch but immagine just listting to that it sounds really really bad.

[FLEP09]

Wow! Incredible.... Wanna join my  band?

[RAFEdiBJE]

amen x 2 =)

[mdaleo]

Woa... who is this guy? Anyone know?

[STRATOCASTER1992]

@mdaleo Rick Graham

[LawzyAfterMidnight]

Saw a bit of Bumblefoot sneaking in there!

[Ironb3rry]

What JS model is that? I don't remember any JS model with a fixed edge bridge...

[STRATOCASTER1992]

@Ironb3rry that's the JS2000 in champagne gold

[YsykSultangali]

Ахуеть!!!!

[heavytetal]

YOU ARE GOD!!!!! =)

[Chessguitar]

Please, play for me one note, and let it sound.... The most beautiful one, if you want

[ace88bf]

Flawless technique.

[weaponx29]

sir...do u usual use alternate picking for sweeping style or not?? im confused..

[weaponx29]

how does he do that....he's a guitar freak...no offence....

[eDme]

3 works. What The Fuck? O.O

[ugou]

niiiice !

[skiandre]

gfuck gyou and both your hands

[albatross111]

I like the Ron Thal tapping :)

[andresmvjp]

¿Es en serio lo que dices?

[andresmvjp]

Sí

[FLAMENCO961]

bacan entonces fijate bien y bas a ver q al man hasta le suenan las cuerdas y cuando deja d tocar x un momento pero la musik sigue sonando si o q??

[Alexander1991]

This type of clean playing only comes when you get older, so funny when your young you can't wait to play all the insane shit as fast as possible in max speed. So when you get older you get more calm and take it a step slower which is much better, just look at rick, clean as SHAIT I TELL YA!

[neoclassic09]

that doesn't make any sense.

[gandalph915]

yeah, but it's awesome

[yankee9]

that was pretty beast

[danilloshin]

Great!!!!!!!

[Mrmastermodesty]

it's a lil sloppy and emotionally impaired

[stefguitar1000]

you suck at guitar.

when you can post a video of you playing anythign close to this then you can comment but until then i suggest you close your youtube account.

[Mrmastermodesty]

to be a judge for a criminal case you don't have to commit crime. ur comment lacks conviction mr. outta nowhere!

[stefguitar1000]

First of all YOU lack a little appreciation for a different style of guitar playing.2nd if he were playing a song thatmay have been correct,but hes not.This video is titled guitar improvising in the studio and the discriptionCLEARLY says"wasting time in the studio."NOT "writing a beautiful ballad"This guy gets paid to play songs people request lessons for on a site.Pretty sure if his playing was sloppy, which it isint, he wouldnt have that job.if he tried he could come up with somthing emotional

[JonDeth]

Very cliche and sequential runs

[raist173]

nice legato

[pascalhorn]

who is the guy in the video?! o_O he's godly!

[deathrider7777]

that tapping part was a part of ron thal

[staticxfrk]

yea its from guitars suck lol. but ron uses a thimbul(is that what its called?) to make it sound wierder

[monkeymastermaster]

that is a beautiful guitar

[HeinHell]

this sound is very nice...

[jamanursula]

very special

[JHKHSVJSSRV]

Maybe for you there is something unusual,for me it's a bullshit.

[thesanderslegend]

playin with all them rings and jank on crap yeah!

[Evanhalf]

Such amazing technique. Flawless tapping and legato. This makes me want to go and practice my ass off.

[rpgavan]

nice stuff dude...very clean

[theartofshred]

sexy guitar

[MrJesus1337]

jikaldjf

[TheAdventuresOfJon]

i would have to say you are one if not the best guitar player on youtube

[JohnPetrucci7]

Excelent man! You remind me Malmsteen with his arpeggios.

[agugugachu]

jesus man your tapping technique is impeccable. same goes for the hybrid picking

[uomoscozzese]

[metalJBC]

You are not good, but God. Awesome.

[badtripeur]

[Some1BesidesMe]

@highsociey unless you cant play..like me >.> used to! but not anymore

[Pjumetal]

[RippinSkullz]

This is time wasting? I think you are continuously creating time with that very own solo.

[OxidaneProductions]

epic

[robotfamilygchicken]

look at his right hand, does almost nothing during the whole song, amazing legato technique

[jimpy419]

But he is using his second finger there pretty efficiently and discreetly.

[extremeguitarhero666]

OMFG!

[ThrillMonger]

hello john

[TomMorello725]

style STRATOVARIUS

[n30l1nk]

My God, your technique is so relaxed. ._.

[Deanluis]

Great picking technique.

[djsewell]

i like your style

[alexunicat]

ibanez s320

[enjoico1]

lol. The Ibanez S320:

1) Is black

2) has a weathered finish

3) a ZR trem

This guitar has none of these

[qwasd0r]

Ibanez JS2000 champagne gold

[someoneelse101]

With a fixed bridge? I thought all the Satriani models had floating trems?

[Rocket1771]

you can block tremolos. I block my floyd rose when i have to detune for a gig.

[highrollerzzz]

well, js1600 and js2000 have fixed bridges

you can always check ibanez's website

[BLACKETERNALMOON]

fucking great!!!!

[Saraxceno]

Awesome !! @ 20sansum I think its a Ibanez

[murisv]

Killer chops Rick my bro!

[Sozos9038]

it has to be a santriani signature ibanez

[TheMetalMan9000]

cya

[seventhson998]

nah mate- rick wouldnt speed it up hes the man really. Tasty improv rick loving it :)

[raythetse]

Yeah there is no reason for rick graham to speed up the video, if he wants it faster, he just plain plays it faster.

[Shogun777]

ive seen people claim this type of shit on over 9000 videos.. its never actually sped up, no one does that you frickin idiot

[Sunedosa]

Fucking moron,GTFO the internet

[grandpasantana]

Very cool impros!

[STRATOCASTER1992]

great job, You play really cool. The guitar is a JS2000?

[rockstarr2113]

[Wh00terman]

[albatross111]

[notsaras]

damn!my balls are bleeding!

[catatonicdance]

You're up there with the legends, Rick. You're too good to be an internet star. Fuck Joe Satriani, you should be on G3.

[joesatriani1200rulez]

how dare you say fuck joe satriani !! fuck you

[STRATOCASTER1992]

fuck you, not Joe

[rams25]

by studio you mean the room upstairs in your house that your wife lets you play in after you do the dishes and mow the grass?

[maartenvanderpoll]

I like your covers ! You play 'm really beautiful. But this is a bit too unmusical for me.

[blackgatedef3]

you are a mind blower rick! you like chromatics huh? sounds pretty sweet, I bet you were just warming up! Looking forward to see some new material soon! god bless...*****

[toffern123]

this is the shit! you fucking rock!;)

[timtim145]

dude that said malmsteen is a washout stfu hes older now ok he would still school u anyday and besides once a great guitar legend always a guitar legend bitch

[manthisprog]

James Hetfield, you don't know what the fuck you're talking about...

Great playing man, amazing!

[malmsteenforce]

hahahahahahahhaha.....

(hahahaha)

[luckyguitar123]

you don´t know what you are saying, and search the meaning of FACT too.

[lillmafiaman1]

lmfao.Fool

[jacey714]

mind you...most of the great playing you hear from Yngwie was when he was like 18 years old...When you were 18, you guys are probably still peeing in your pants...

[MasterDonut]

Damn you play like a mother f***er, your tone, vibrato and accuracy is freaking godlike. Realy inspiring.

I would definitely buy your album if I knew were to get it ^^

[StankBreff66]

you can probably find some dream theater stuff on Amazon, or something of the sort

[castblackiron]

is that an Joe Satriani Ibanez? looks like it but I can't quite tell. and on the playing, that was very very impressive. shit, if i could play like that, I wouldn't be here right now

[dizphr3ak]

get off of malmsteen... hes a wash out...

[Fuckyou6669]

malmsteen is a good so fuck you!

[ciaranguitar]

incredible

[GiuseppeMrAxe]

GREAT!!!!!!!!!!

The best technique I've seen here in youtube...

The cleanest guitarist!!

And with the ring and the watch, it seems Yngwie is playing!!! :DD

[subjulio]

Fantastic, great chops and tone!!!

[bagusnu]

nice tone

[cheifsniper]

are you hybrid picking? I can't tell

[HumanButcher]

Very very great Solo. You really got big balls! ;)
