Melodic Guitar Solo Contest - João Gonçalves's Entry

[voiceofsorrowguitar]

WTF FACES FTW

[AyanRafique]

I loved the tone of this one, and the phrasing was very melodic man! Thanks for the comment on my video, and good luck! :D

[Machin3God]

Nice dude !!!! Definitely very unique.

The best thing about playing guitar is THE GUITAR FACE !!!

My girlfriend always laughs at me when I play because of the faces that I make but she doesn't understand how much emotion soloing brings out...

Awesome entry man, +1 on the facial expressions, awesome contest.

[JoaoNGoncalves]

@Machin3God I SO get what you're saying, ahah! You know Jimmy Page? He puts his lips in a strange way when he's playing. I used to do that and everybody laughed at me, so, I was able to stop it xD

Still, one thing I can't do is stop feeling the music. I hate players who look like machines trying to control their emotions. LET IT OUT! The audience is feeling it, you are supposed to feel it too, so I don't care if some friends laugh, they're having fun anyway and we're having fun too ;)

[LittleEmoBoy001]

@Machin3God

Ever consider the possibility you're just imitating someone else with those stupid faces?

[MaxBGuitar]

Sounds pretty nice! ;) Are you also doing music theory?

[JoaoNGoncalves]

@MaxBGuitar Thank you mate ;)

Nah, actually I never did music theory. I have guitar classes and all I play/compose is by ear :)

Thank You Everyone for your opinion and comments, this is why I love the Youtube Music Community ;)

@Beauthegreat1 - well that's a new one! That they were comic I already knew, but remembering Steve Vai? I guess I can take that as a compliment :) !

[miqueldapena]

Great! you have such nice passages in there. Good luck with the contest

[JoaoNGoncalves]

@miqueldapena Thank you very much Miquel ;)

[RockNRollRanter]

Very nice work! I LOVE that guitar! It looks to be an SG, but considering the different brand name, it can't be, can it? What kind is it?

[JoaoNGoncalves]

@RockNRollRanter Thanks mate :)

I know it looks like an SG, but it isn't. This is a Viper, by LTD, which is part of ESP. My model is the 200 FM, and I agree, it's a beautifully crafted guitar! You can check it out at espguitars(dot)com/guitars.htm­l

Keep coming back ;)

[kada2278]
