You can see the pain in Neville Martin's eyes at the start there 😅

Thing that pisses me off is when i mention the name Guthrie Govsn to the youngsters who i tutor , 9/10 of them dont know who he is ! Its very annoying as he is this generations Jason Becker , another genius virtuoso who should have got the recognition he deserved too.

He's as close to a GENIUS guitarist as I can even imagine.

He makes other so called famous guitarists look simple

He doesn't miss

Guthrie for me has always just had an air of poise that he is in total command of the instrument 🎸

what a demi god on that guitar oh my lord he is the master end of story

I like when Guthrie goes off on a scale and you don't know where it will end...That means Improvisation...

Beside absolutely brilliant guitar technique in sooo many different genres & styles, Guthrie just feels music and has a sense of humour while playing

O melhor da atualidade.

What is exactly the point of playing so studiedly fast, to impress 14 yo boys just starting out as it's not music?

At 02:45 GG has communicated so much in an 8 bar solo that many musicians failed to do in an entire song.

A monster on a guitar 😍

mark knopfler, Johnny Marr and Guthrie Govan!! WOW!

The perfect blend beetween surgical and soulful. What a monster!

Guthrie thanks for the slightly dodgy 1994 Guitar Techniques transcription of Eugenes Trick Bag.

Guthrie govan> Michael jordan

#4 was even better 3, the musicality scale on #4 is off the charts

#3 was sick

not sure about those shreddies where they happen, i'm bought in but there something about that

i cant work out whether i like the shrediness in some of the places he shreds

Genius #1

There’s thousands of people who have incredible guitar techniques, Jimmy Hendrix didn’t have the best technique, but he was super original, created his own sound and was cool. Technique has nothing to do with greatness

Do you think the guitar feels like Guthrie is getting all the credit like Scottie pippen that bich mj is the goat not Lebron or Guthrie

I’ve seen this other guy, I think he died, but he had invisible f holes, he was diabetes huge, and he played one note with the fattest sausage finger and shook his whole fat hand all around for this wonky vibrato, his right boob leaked over the whole guitar it was insane, someone gave him an honorary doctorate threw it in the ⚰️

Is it true that brown skin is India Aries secret aryan salute

Okay given I’m only twenty seconds in, but Guthrie has all the hair, lots of notes on many strings, that other sad bloke has none of the hair, one note on one string, and he’s so slow and sad, Guthrie want to smoke this foo, okay back to it, crossroads flashbacks already I’m sweating no that’s pee pee oopsie guys

Sometimes less is more. Hans Zimmer concerts are a horrible mess.

🎉👍👏

Does anyone know the full video of shine on you crazy diamond?

God awful corny cliches. Prefer holdsworth

The vig fretless is by far the most impressive thing ive seen

This guy is brilliant, absolutely crazy and completely unpretentious at the same time. If there were no guitars, they would have to be invented for him.

Every moment he touches a guitar

Piece of the godfather theme😂😂..you always make us happy Mr. govan

It’s hard to be super prescriptive regard the best of anything, but if someone could point me in the direction of any guitarist anywhere, alive or dead, who can transpose himself in to any song, in any genre, in any style and seamlessly integrate himself with such a range of skill, feel, and precision then I really really want hear that person play. GG is like a memory bank, a human Chat GPT of guitar players. If there’s something he can’t do I’m not sure anyone’s born witness to it, and we probably only see 5% of what he can do anyway. Absolute genuine one off total genius.

nobody can beat this guy😂

That fretless guitar though.....

0:25 how great melody

Its funny how some people in the comments need to start comparing guitar players and who's better - it seems they have grown up in an environment that cannot accept the fact there can be multiple amazing things at the same time without one being better than the other. Like all the 5 basic elements have the same value. Nothing is greater or better than the other.

What. A. Monster. He's quietly and politely horrifying.

He's gone fretless now, this god of the guitar. Where will it end? Is he going to discard the guitar altogether and telepathically beam his solos into our brains?

What a great Cause We've Ended version!

God.

Is that Hans Zimmer on stage in the first vid??

If I wouldt be Dizzee Rascal I would (and should) be ashamed to share a stage with real musicians.
