I love your vids man…subscribed a long time ago and I have literally learned so much from them. Thanks

[@zildmania]

Mario is a fucking beast

[@gianlucav2083]

Bro this is one of the best Chon videos/covers on KZbin, each one was on point and it actually introduced me to some new riffs

[@JonLui]

Dammmn thanks sm bro🙏🏻

[@leltraco1983]

Sometimes when i feel down i remember that i can play some CHON's riff and that make me happy again, God bless CHON!

[@JonLui]

Chon are the GOATs

[@pepsiman1589]

ey same

[@jswitch3005]

being able to play Chon riffs will make anyone happy 😅

[@ogloc6308]

You shred man! I forgot how gnarly the old songs are

[@OkeOke-zs5ju]

Right??? They are crazy good

[@JonLui]

Thanks man ! Theyre so crazy but still so creative too

[@ThatsWhatSheSaid_MathRockBand]

It really goes to show how good they really are

[@JonLui]

They are so tapped

[@solarflair3613]

imagine how fukn genius you have to be to come up with riffs like this. absolutely mad. Incredible job

[@ethankoszelewski9630]

Wow…incredible. You knocked these riffs out. Don’t know how Mario and Eric write such absolutely beastly riffs/songs

[@tanami2584]

jaw dropped @ mountains of creation!! jon you're a beast!

[@JonLui]

Glad you like it ,Thanks !!

[@fredoman924]

My brother 🙏 beautiful man, brings me back to the days when me and you were teens playing guitar 6 hours a day inspired by chon to just practice our balls off till we could play this stuff. Proud of you bro!

[@TacoTabascoFresh]

2:50 i dont mean to be that chon nerd but that riff is acually from Wave Bounce 🤓

[@JonLui]

My bad

[@Detc0n]

I very much like the picking version on the fluffy riff because then it works to be heard better on acoustic as well. I also just wanna say I see the work you put into this video, this is probably one of the best if not THEE best chon picking tutorial videos out here.

[@JonLui]

Thank you so much for the compliment! Yeah the fluffy riff is a lot clearer when you pick everything

[@JonLui]

Number #3 is Wave Bounce not rosewood, mb missed it when reviewing the vid

[@brisbrg5179]

I can usually power through that riff in mountains of creations, but imo that second riff they do is so insane, especially erics part is ridiculous

[@timothyryan8753]

Breathe seems like the overall hardest song to play by the band. Just absolute nonstop insanity.

[@JonLui]

Breath is a joke to play tbh

[@harukomeyers7073]

@andrewcrew andrewcrew I wish I good enough to say that

[@marsfredericksongco3016]

That picked fluffy riff sounded really close to the original tapped one. I might try just picking it too since the taps aren't loud enough without a compressor.

[@JonLui]

Yeah never thought of it that way hahah lots of wierd shapes when you pick everything, you got this !

[@cameronpratt6164]

That was incredible. So clean, very impressive

[@kes1209]

Watched this so many times, soooo good 😩 any chance you could do 10 easiest chon riffs too?

[@JonLui]

Working on it right now bud!

[@Jagerdycerken]

Mah man. Feels mad nostalgic hearing these 🔥🔥🔥

[@JonLui]

Swear man was made relearning these hahaha I could feel the muscle memory

[@JawnDama]

Learning that fluffy riff without taps is so based lmao

[@tadhg8537]

One of my fav videos

[@JonLui]

Thanks :’)

[@hotdogonastick18]

Chon just keeps coming up with more intricate pieces. It’s wild.

[@Gabriel_1x]

HE TALKS WTF

[@JonLui]

I do that sometimes hahah

[@puremusicfragments2619]

DUDE... THE O.G. RIFF is by far the Godfather of and over all Riffs ever Created by a Guitar Player !

[@KunaevNS]

You're an amazing guitarist!

[@TrippEdits]

WOAH VOICE REVEAL POG

[@JonLui]

BIGGGG

[@alexanderhall1819]

Oh man haha. I was about to comment that mountains of creation was def the hardest Chon song. Glad to see it at the top of the list🔥

[@JonLui]

Been learning it for years literally

[@novander]

Surprised the knot sweep wasn't here lmaoo I still can't get that down properly. Great vid tho!

[@JonLui]

Ay gotta keep something for the part 2 lmao thanks a million bro !

[@jackfran2188]

THANK YOU FOR PLAYING THE OG RIFF! FAV CHON SONG EVER

[@HeavyProfessor]

wonderful

[@GOREMAXXX]

Try Knot sweeps and Elliptical Illuminations sweeps, they’re pretty hard too if you ever make a part two lol.

[@JonLui]

That’s true I forgot about those tbh, I do think the wave bounce sweep over shadows those ones tho

[@anuvette]

that fluffy riff, you played without tapping 😱😱😱😱you're amazing

[@markopolo2224]

flawless

[@diek_yt]

Lmao just as I clicked on this video the first thing I thought was "Mountains of Creation", and lo and behold...

[@skebo514]

Having learned quite a few chon songs I would agree with this list for the most part, I think I would replace the o.g. riff with the riff from if though.

[@JonLui]

Ya for sure that works too, if doesn’t sound easy at all

[@justdis_]

imo the wave bounce sweep is harder than mountains haha anyway sick video!!

[@JonLui]

Alternate picking is harder for me ig haha

[@justdis_]

@@JonLui not many people know this but the ascending part of the mountains riff is actually hammer ons and the descending part is alternate picking. if you watch marios play through closely you will notice this. It makes the riff a lot easier and the only way i can play it haha. good job for alt picking the whole thing

[@NvgtrWiggles]

Well... Time to go back into the shed to practice.

[@ryanbrown5141]

The start of across the spectrum is an absolute master piece. Pretty sure mario was 16 at the time

[@JonLui]

Built differently

[@PhattaArt]

Superb

[@JonLui]

Thank you!

[@Reviwitha6]

Book is the most easiest song that I learned

Thanks dood !

[@ChaboyAnthony]

Figured that part of Mountains of Creation would be #1 haha

[@JonLui]

Couldn’t be anything else hahah

[@Zyo8472]

Crazy to think how those guys came up with these riffs

[@gosshi5197]

#3 - X - Rosewood O - Wave Bounce

[@beyshore_]

the mountains of creation riff is hammered-on on the way up and picked on the way down. don't make it harder on yourself.

[@KnuckleCuts]

You’re such an amazing player. Thanks for sharing these high quality guitar videos!

[@JonLui]

Appreciate that ! :’)

[@EchoOrDelta]

no joke, but this guy plays really smooth

[@ljose34]

Es precioso ✨

[@OhTheEzekiel]

I was wondering if you would include that exact riff you chose for the number 1 spot and you did! It's one of the only chon songs I know, but I felt validated when you chose it.

[@brobarrels2339]

Seeeeeeeeessssshhhhh🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🥵

[@JonLui]

Cheers! hahaha

[@MichelLedig]

Does anyone know what happens to the Band?

[@JonLui]

Last thing I heard was their record label are rats and now they prolly won’t release music for years if even

[@Freshzilla]

@Jon Lui you got the album art for #3 but that song is actually wave bounce

[@JonLui]

My bad !

[@no-ld3hz]

h o w

[@why-axis1530]

The voice reveal though hahaha, 👌🏻🔥

[@JonLui]

Thank u dawg hahah

[@experiment1846]

Damn!

[@marioangelomundin316]

u forgot, the space bruh heehee

[@AgelessIlluminate]

I'm definitely going to try learning fluffy by picking instead of tapping because that sound was much more pronounced

[@LuisFeRiffs]

You're amazing yoo, nice top

[@JonLui]

Haha I appreciate that thank you !!

[@MrRight-zt5ie]

What guitar do you use in this video? I'm lovin' it❤

[@edwardrummer]

Ah here 🤯🤯🤯

[@JonLui]

🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@judgementxx]

You labeled rosewood on #3 as well but showed the Homey album. Can’t think of the song just by that riff, though

[@ramanpreetsingh2206]

Its wave bounce

[@samboger25]

I didn’t realize this meant difficult I just thought these were the 10 chon riffs that go the hardest

[@ashleyispresent]

isn't the rosewood riff from wavebounce?

[@furiousfellow1583]

Impressive!! Did you pull most of them by ear? Its kinda hard to find chon tabs

[@rando.commando]

for #3 im pretty sure its wave bounce not rosewood

[@nunolance23]

I guess on number 3 you missed the name, it’s still Rosewood! Anyways great compilation bro!!

[@TrippEdits]

that would be my bad, thanks for the spot though

[@dgibson310]

DAMN

[@Nat-se5qk]

Hey man, so accurate, congrats! Tell us about the gear used!

[@ch0king_victtim]

your guitar

[@cenaakashakash]

Is this standard tuning bro? I'm new to chon so I don't know that well.

[@JonLui]

Yeah all of them are in standard :)

[@ThrisCopher]

Your basically a chon bro now

[@JonLui]

Finally :’)

[@Howdypartner69420]

Good job on the new EP

[@JonLui]

Cheers !! 🍻

[@brandonnguyen6937]

Gonna throw up an honorable mention to Puddle especially the part after the chorus. Shit hurts my hands

[@suyuki8496]

OH SHITTT

[@JonLui]

🙏🏻💕

[@iKentEven]

That Rosewood riff is easier on marimba but not by much.

[@kirehj_sm]

It's so curious (at least for me) watching this kind of vids bout what is difficult for every guitarrist, sometimes we agree and sometimes not hahaha Nice vid dude, amazing

[@JonLui]

Yeah Thats true bc everyone learns guitar differently so Ofc different songs will be harder for some and easier for others, Interesting stuff hahah

[@MoneyManHolla]

JON FUCKING LUI

[@JonLui]

Hahahaha love this energy

[@dannyhood4007]

Modern guitar players today make 80s guitarist like Slosh intermediate level. Most intermediate guitarplayers can play Slash. It’s like sleeping. Give these modern guitarist a mellow track to rip over. Theres more feel, emotion in thier lil pinky fingers.

[@JonLui]

damn right

[@elliotjimenez5282]

Might be an editing mistake but #3 is wave bounce not rosewood

[@macalmeida366]

Yo epic vid but change the song label on three it's Wave Bounce not Rosewood!

[@JonLui]

Sorry bout that that’s my bad !!

[@Industry-insider]

Now try to play these on a non nylon acoustic lol

[@mangoshake]

Ironically #7 is the easiest for me. O.G., while there's a lot of string skipping in the riff, is pretty straightforward when it comes to alternate picking so you can develop the pattern pretty quickly and just need to practice it a bit.

[@JonLui]

yeah i getchu it kinda has a flow to it

[@caioandrade2899]

is "knot" too easy to be here or he just forgot it?

[@JonLui]

i fired my editor for this dw wont happen again
