  • There is one thing about Youtube for sure, I'm never surprised that no matter what the subject matter, the dregs of society will come out and leave the most shameful comments. Yeesh, I have no hope anymoe.

  • @ElLimonar1 5 steps down would be B (or H in german), 4 steps down is C. Halftones: B - C - Cis - D - Es - E

  • @1dillontaylor

    He has tuned it 5 half-steps down to C. As he got older, he preferred a lower tension.

  • Ufff me ha dejado sin palabras...

  • Has Eddie Van Halen ever gotten old looking.

  • "Can you play the guitar for us Grandpa?" He plays this as their jaws drop. They vow to never listen to Justin Bieber, Miley Cyrus or any other oonch oonch dance crap again. "Holy #@$^, can grandpa shred that axe!!!!!"

  • Truly wonderful. Ripe with all the Spanish flair and spice one could ever hope to have. Just amazing. And such interesting technique as well. Not between the legs with a stool or footstand but rather held up by hand with the lower bout on the right leg. That's quite a difficult stance to use after being used to the footstool. Simple awesome! Anyone who criticize this man had better play like God with a guitar made of mana!

  • Oh, yeah. And if Montoya played badly, please show us how it should have been done. Make a video and upload it, and let's see how a *real* master would do it.

  • Music grows. If we all followed tradition exactly, our music would still be banging sticks together. No one owns music; you can't "steal" a style. If you like it, you use it, that's all.

    So Montoya had a style and used ones he'd heard; and he tried other stuff. You either like it or you don't, but either way he was a highly-trained and creative artist.

  • Total Shred Monster.

  • wow.....
