[@Junkyy-loxa]

The Ichika Nito you featured on spotify doesn't seem to be the right one...

[@kophiedogbey2227]

You need Eminem or Kendrick Lamar to use this. Just the guitar and base. I swear it'll make such a big bloody hit.

[@АлександрГалайчук-м3т]

Davie 504 is NOOB against you

We want a full song pls!!

[@justicesellers241]

We love you Ichika!!!!❤❤❤

Hi

[@natropie900]

When two final bosses fight each other

[@JustusFelixMusic]

underrated

[@Caramelle58]

I don’t see a fight - I just see two brilliant musicians

[@essenceofanarchony8892]

In that case the player wins!

[@tylerbox7867]

Guitar hero boss battle on expert 100%

[@Q-bazZ]

It is like an Orstein and Smough from a DS...

[@SetZor666]

Per usual, the winner is us again

[@Code12art]

ong

[@Gangstnate]

That promo at the end is such a flex

[@grg537]

ngl his channel is all about flex lol😂 peopl love it tho

[@leroyrobenson]

Love the little Polyphia quote in the middle. Well done!

[@ezrahn]

a lot of Polyphia nods 😂

[@cakeburps]

@@ezrahn Non-guitarist question-- I feel like Ichika has played like this forever. Doesn't the Polyphia feel here come from the tuning and tone? Edit: I forgot about the other "T" -- It's definitely the timing too, yeah...

[@ezrahn]

@@cakeburps Definitely agreed on timing. But beyond just having the similar feel, this song has a ton of direct quotes from PolyPhia in fact the time signature, the polyrhythm beats and the chord progressions of the whole song is a direct copy of Playing God. The artificial harmony at 0:02 and 0:28 is the same as Playing God's intro. The breakout at 0:39 is a nod to Scott Lepage's Playing God at around 2:40. Ichika even uses the same guitar type. The solo at 0:52 is a nod to Steve Vai's solo in Ego Death. 1:05 is a little reference to G.O.A.T. I'll stop here for now 😀

[@nv2332]

​@@ezrahni noticed them too! :D

[@toplobster7714]

Which song did he quote?

[@shepzero167]

Catchiest music battle of all time.

[@ross-carlson]

of "whole" time? I think you mean of "all" time, right?

[@shepzero167]

@@ross-carlson oh sorry I used auto complete system so it happened

[@orca2964]

It’s actually crazy to me how similar these two are in style. Both Charles and Ichika use lots of tapping and harmonics, and go super fast with those things as well. Great job you two!

[@jjohnson8977]

The talking and playing at same time at the end. Is freaking mind blowing. No one can ever know how hard that is. Call me amazed

[@ChrisHargrave23]

That ad read was incredible. Haha

[@gem3020]

Both of these people make me feel so bad at instruments haha

[@auradmg]

It's important to remember that KZbin is both a source of amazing inspiration and a source of the worst imposter syndrome. Compared to 20 years ago when you'd read about the pros in magazines or see them on TV, every aspiring artist is now force-fed content from the most amazing talent in the world, with handy reminders sent to your pocket that they're churning out material every day that you'll never be capable of. The key is to focus on your own journey.

[@sandratrarambeloson144]

i see them as professional rally or racing car pilots and myself as just a normal dude driving a car. Knowing how to drive a car may be enough for most people.

[@fwkb2]

Beautiful! This may be my favorite collab yet.

[@starr_ship]

This is incredible, as always! I would love to see these guys collab on some longer-form, more compositional stuff; a rock opera of sorts but in their idiom. They likely made this video when half a world apart, so imagine all the textures these two could make should they get together in a room for a prolonged period of time.

[@Nathan_North]

New 6 string looks awesome and this is a great collab🔥

[@ia7072]

Imagine a collab with Charles, Ichika, Davi, Tim Henson and Marcin ?

[@TDL1900]

You're forgetting the monster guitarist Lil Wayne.

[@alphagt62]

You mean a band? Yes! All of these amazing talents are wasting away on KZbin while they could be a touring band! Writing the new songs to change the musical landscape for the better!

[@monabri7387]

Thanks for reminding us. Please make it go away!

[@perpetualbystander4516]

If you mean Davie504 then I'd say he's not good enough to join.

[@DinoBryce]

​@@perpetualbystander4516Nah 😂

[@DegonTheMighty]

The two gods battle once again. Beautiful work as always! Thanks for yet another amazing performance.

[@Mintey.0]

New bass?? Beautiful 🔥

[@metalavenger23]

I hope that 6 sting bass becomes a new expansion to his artist line. It’s a beautiful bass and sounds fantastic, and I’d love to own one.

[@roddurbanerjee9635]

Well done Charles! You inspire us everyday.

[@QuizZzone39]

You re both légends. Can t stop listening!

[@TommyLeeDepp]

Way too amazing!

[@Harry-xs1dd]

Yo I like your bass playing

[@clavis9029]

The fuuuu.... That was awesome! You guys rock, we seriously need more of this!

[@williammcallister9211]

Ayyy, always love to see yall work!

[@milovaldiviezo9064]

Love the new bass! Love your videos and the impact you make in my life and every young bassist life!

[@TheVagueIdeas]

you two need to release an album!

[@bascuthach]

i was enjoying the tune and you stopped, WE WANT MORE!!!!

[@axelalmeidaguerra1309]

this riffs is insane ❤‍🔥

[@blackeneddove]

My two favorite guitarists in one video?? The stuff of legends. ❤

[@AndersAkutsuHedenrud]

Worth watching twice. Happy subscriber to both channels ❤

[@philipajfry]

When Ichika started shredding instead of mathing, it was so cool - cause I've never heard him play that way. It was a good fusion of traditional soloing and the mathy phrasing.

[@downhillnut2273]

I was thinking the same.

[@lpi1565]

Been waiting that for ages

[@mikedegracias8616]

Nice colllab! More of this please!

[@tatalmarak5657]

Yessssss... our fav guitarists met finally! Thanks everyone for your prayers for this moment❤

[@dongxingyaoyang8550]

amazing collab

[@user-rg6ib4ct7z]

Good job my friend

[@samuelconnolly347]

No idea how I missed the notification for this, but this is the collaboration we've all been dreaming of! Great stuff lads.

[@hugecrit]

This is insane, amazing performances.

[@cobrasys]

Incredible, both of you. Superb, really.

[@philcorbett5992]

I could listen to this all day

[@YuInDb]

That was awesome 😮

[@grumpyoldwizard]

Wow. To masters playing together. Thank you.

[@PiePlayzBASS]

So close to 2Mil subs! This was a great collab from the both of you! Absolutely amazing musicianship. I love your videos Charles :)

[@bassplayer463]

I know it was only done during the worst 3 years of our lives, but it would be awesome to see another great collab. I miss those. They are really awesome to watch.

[@user-li5iw8bo7m]

Thank you so much to both! Pretty cool, i love you🙏🏻

[@avalerionbass]

That two octave tone solo would have been GREAT in the last shred collab! That was awesome!

[@billgibson7899]

Two absolute beasts.

[@jesseweigel8397]

Love the collab... I might be more impressed by the Incogni advert while playing Classical Thumb though 🤯

[@kennethcananua77716]

Best collab ever seen

[@21vendetta71]

That is beautiful collab🔥we wait this so so long time

[@benski23]

sick collaboration guys!

[@ronjie]

Love seeing the collabs with other musical gods

[@MRmaningrey]

Thank you for sharing the many skills that you share. 🙏🏼👍🎶

[@trebm]

Thats a fine bass you have there!

[@JaxenB]

More of this please! More collabs with great guitarists just like this. More with Ichika too.

[@HollyBrauch]

Nice battle, New bass, Do I see. Shecter CB-6 in the future?

[@A.B.H_da-goat]

Finally a worthy opponent, there battle will be legendary

[@patrickwilliam3322]

That lower chord at 0:20 is sick

[@patrickwilliam3322]

A bass version of Classical Gas or similar sounding piece would be awesome (edit: of course it can be done, this is Charles Berthoud)

[@Ilikemusicanddrawing]

The collab we knew we needed but never expected to be this illegally good

[@starrystarryderp]

A collaboration I had no idea i needed!!

[@thomasskeen5077]

Wow guys... awesome

[@cryptonite9994]

Tasty licks, foundational chops, These two...excellent Recipe for a Great Musical...gourmet Meal. Ty it was delicious

[@BADISkettu]

The amount of skill in this video is insane.

[@auradmg]

It's amazing how Tim Henson's style has integrated itself into music culture

[@Gio81Sa]

That new six strings looks sick. Assuming that's probably going to be a new signature with schecter maybe? Still, this one was amazing, you and Ichika pair up really good togheter!

[@christhomas412]

Somehow this just doesn't seem like a versus.. what nice collab though :)

[@renardazubel1872]

Ichika Nito promoting his grandma’s homemade sweaters. Very nice of him!

[@MiKo-lb9de]

What a beautiful bass❤

[@MrSkeptik-z5r]

Awesome as always👍

[@artepjan]

I really hope this collab is to be continued 🔥🎸

[@davewebster5120]

great collab!

[@srsbsns7673]

CB6 looking sexy. I prefer the CB4 colorway but it definitely makes sense to have unique colorways per model.

[@ShaunYan]

if you blind folded me and told me this was polyphia's new song I'd believe you

[@DirtObseXXion]

Love the nod to Polyphia, acknowledging the influence was genius! Incredible collab!

[@Half_Man_Half_Bearpig]

This, is very nice. More, please.

[@ShadowNX01]

The epicness level of this video is impossible to measure... two god-tier players and a godlike piece of music... let's listen one more time... and one more...!

[@garycyphers7068]

Gonna need a whole album now.

[@LogansMediaHub]

Round 2 less go!

[@jjjmethosjjj]

Step 1: Open new Charles Berthoud video Step 2: Like the video immediately Step 3: Watch the video Step 4: Accidentally unlike and then re-like the video Step 5: Play the video again

[@Gravyandtatoes]

Great collab!

[@WAHYUBUDI28]
