WOW STEVE VAI IS SO BEAST!!!!!

[PortalRealm]

wow, what a great way to record the solo dude!

@YtseJam16 You Win....

You Are Correct.....

But he also does actually play with only ONE Hand on the Guitar...

That was kind of the point, but I'll still give it to you..

peace

[YtseJam16]

@haarpcloud911 Oh well be pedantic about it then.

One-handed guitar is playing using entirely hammer-ons and pull-offs - or at least that's how I understand it. YES he is muting the strings so that the other strings don't sound, but only one hand is actually playing the notes for a prolonged period of time... okay, about 2 bars.

[haarpcloud911]

@YtseJam16 No it does NOT...! I hear what he's doing and both hands are on the guitar... Watch Closely, right before he disappears, both hands are on the guitar..

Not to say he never does it, but NOT there... The notes do not come out right unless you semi-mute the strings on the neck or change the note entirely.

peace

@haarpcloud911 LOL the one-handed playing begins just as you lose sight of Vai, behind a head :P
