@BrokenWingman That's a beautiful song indeed, thanks! I quite like his style, although I do think in his quicker playing he tends to sound Paul Gilbert-like. For the ballads I always turn to my other hero; Andy Timmons.

You should listen to "Cruel Reality of Nature" by Buckethead. Put on some headphones and enjoy the ride.

@MaxBGuitar Well, I mean many many players (incl Guthrie) take a lot of licks from different players they like, analyse them and then use them in their own way. This will help your improvising tremendously since the players you like are probably the ones that play whatever you want to sound like. But indeed, no one ever liked a copycat, be yourself with those licks!

@ProgressiveMadness92 What is it about that buckethead guy? I've seen him play multiple times but he always completely failed to impress me. Can you name one video on which his incrediple playing comes out?

last time i watched this i got a hard on that lasted 3 and a half days, i knew i shouldnt have watched again

@SublimeParagon I'm not sure there is. I'd say Greg Howe comes close in terms of style and out of scale improvisation. But Guthrie has that silky smoothness that is difficult to replicate. Both guys are legends and I wish more people knew who they were.

guthrie's crooked teeth are a product of evolution.. so that in case this genius would loose his hands he could play with his mouth and indeed, continue being one of the best..

I have watched this many times, and I am a decent guitarist - but is there anyone else who can do an improv like GG and I mean for every and any song you can imagine! But so you know from 5:17 he is just modestly letting anyone with ears know he has mastered the guitar! For a while after I discovered Guthrie I wanted to break my guitar and never look at it again, but when you become wise you will want to practice more than ever before ;)

@SublimeParagon
I lately found out, that it helps not always compare your playing to the playing of others. Just be yourself, go for your own goals... Not try to copy anything. I guess that's how many UNIQUE players made their way. Be inspired, but not try to be something, you aren't. Create own personality on your instrument, everyday. Try to get what you practice to songs, to finished music. Everyone can write music... But most prefer to copy. Don't know, ... My point of view.
