i'd like somebody who disliked this video to tell me what are the things he/she doesn't like

[Plucky1991]

How is it possible to improvise for so long?? It´s like an incredibly long rehearsed song. It´s amazing how you just keep on playing and always know the next notes, where to add chords, what chord when, short licks, solos etc it´s just goes on and on and still looks like you´ve done this erlier like a song you played before. DAMN!

This both motivates me & break me at the same time. Like walking into a reverse escalator where someone kicks me down by the top. Oh well, just keep on practicing..

[Plucky1991]

I hate you for beeing the coolest kind of person with unlimited guitar skills..

[KONAROCK1]

music isn't a competition.. go watch basketball if you're into that stuff..

[Devon Peacock]

Why not learn both, as well as country, blues, metal, and anything else you can possibly get your finger on?

[cameltooth1]

If you mean you favor jazz skills on guitar to just rock guitar stuff, i agree. It's great to know both.

[Homegirl1982]

Oh my god, the Use Me parts. <3 That is way too much talent in one room (individually and collaboratively).

[SavageDutchman]

I'll say it depends on the players, I mean look at Yngwie Malmsteen and his technicle prowess and then look at Django Reinhardt and his technicle prowess.

Jazz players>Rock players

I know I'll get hate.

My guess would be either the guitar or the amp got the volyme knobs turned down a bit. Since Phil uses overdrive from the amp and when I personally have used different tube amps my guess would be, when the volyme is turned down a bit on either guitar or amp the sound gets fuzzier instead of distorted and "powerfull". I hope I made that at least a little understandable. If not, ignore and hate one me ;)
