Andy is one of those players where its impossible to be envious of his skill. Any sense of jealousy goes out the window because its simply a treat to be in the presence of his music and playing, he is just THAT good.

[@xlr8r2010]

I agree....he is on another level.

[@jasongraham4425]

I try not to get jealous and remember I’m pretty great at being me but I must say it’s harder to do when I’m listening to Andy James lol

[@Jason31256]

Don't be jealous be inspired

[@palkisakumi8595]

what about Satriani ? yes, this guy is very good, but I bet there are guitarists at this level all over the world, except we don't know about most of them.

[@danielsnorton]

we need this on spotify STAT

[@sirsir9665]

Such, accuracy, soul, and skill. How is it even possible

[@mrfish3034]

From years and years of dedicated practice. Also a lot of hard work and determination to make oneself one of the best in the world.

[@ja7941]

Just MASTER class See kids this is what happens when you work really really hard

[@ֆօֆօǟ]

Being a master like Andy really take too much time and effort, he's a shred king RESPECT! ♔

[@bigbo672]

When you rock really hard XD

[@shobyvinci]

Practice alone can make you better but not world class. Playing too much basketball wont make you a world class player either. Andy is naturally talented, you cant just come up with such composition every week.

[@doomzy8622]

lol!

[@MLCrow]

Yeah, sometimes working hard is not enough, you need also some talent (like in Andy's case), I totally agree with Shoaib Sheikh

[@anguslynch4240]

Its getting to the point where every song he writes is perfect

[@shobyvinci]

Seriously! normally there are one or two such tracks per album. I now put him ahead of petrucci (dont hate me)

[@AchillesWrath1]

@@shobyvinci They're starting to all sound the same too. Not the solo's but the backing track.

[@rmanor5508]

Angus Lynch I can listen to every song over and over and not get tired of it at all, just takes your mind on a journey like no other, so much feeling

[@cyberviking7574]

Yep. Like it's not even an exaggeration, his songs are literally melodically perfect, it's insane.

[@duncanmanser894]

Hold my beer while I casually write a banger for this STL Tones promo.

[@janicetri3668]

Andy James takes Beast Mode, God Mode, and Guitar God status, mixes them together, and goes above them all. Guitar virtuosos have a unique gift for being able to make their guitar sing and tell a story..... with no lyrics or books needed. There's a certain beauty to everything he composes and this is no different.

[@kenjo2440]

First heard of him just now from a random instagram ad. Sick! 🔥

[@KimchiSpringRoll]

I don't always listen to shreds, but when I do, I listen to Andy James.

[@JOYSTICKGAMES101]

he doesnt really shred as far as im conserned his music is to mellow

[@emayfrit]

!💥😎💥! Andy, if I ever finally learn that Continuum solo, I'll Never Forget It !💥!...JAM ONNN!💥!💥!

[@emayfrit]

Andy, tonight, Aug.27/28, 2022 is a New Moon...you can look into what they advise. I am taking it as a day to make a concerted effort to utilize organizational and strategic prowess to reorganize my Guitar Practise system and incorporate New Levels!💥!💥!!!!....JAM ONNN!💥😎💥!

[@emayfrit]

!💥!💥!!!...ahahahaha!💥😎💥!

[@nomo3875]

Damn ! How I just get mesmerized by observing his picking & the synchronous fretting fingers :-) INCREDIBLE !!!

[@sovereigngagepfister5917]

You should also check out Polaris. Their guitar play throughs are insane.

[@nomo3875]

@@sovereigngagepfister5917 yes u r right... infact...this generation has lots of interesting guitarists...u can't possibly watch & judge every guitarist...the list is almost endless...

[@sovereigngagepfister5917]

Doped Weasel feel free to check my channel out as well! I got some mad riffage on my new tracks! All my music is produced by Aaron Chaparian who works out of graphic nature audio. (Recorded bands like: Fit For an Autopsy, Lamb of god, Gideon, Knocked loose, etc.)

[@JakobStrand]

Tabs for the song are in the included tuner!

[@DennisFeinsteinCEO]

I bought this Tonality Suite about 2 years ago, and it IS sweet. Unbelievable tight high-gain tones, super rich leads, with thick-ambient cleans This definitely hangs with anything NDSP has, even to this day, and I'm a huge NDSP fan... I use this plugin so much 💜✌️

[@Djent7779]

The link at 2:00 is great

[@MetalGearIV]

a true king my man

[@RFSpectrumHunter]

Those heavy riffs touches the soul.

[@jalsk123]

My fingers are sweating just looking at it. The amount of work behind every note when put together just keeps me motivated to keep going.. Even thought I'm 14 years in, I still see this and believe that I'm getting there, but in reality I'm not even close. Playing the notes with such clarity is my major issue, everyone "can" shred, but shredding with clarity in every 16th or 32nd note, triplet... whatever, is what's keeping me back. I'll keep going!

[@kellyford8832]

practice makes perfect, YOU GOT THIS man, keep it up 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽😉

[@emayfrit]

Andy, the new album is a brilliant masterpiece! The music is well balanced in the multitude of dimensions you incorporate, and its just enthralling to hear every time. It is a Great Work of Art, and I am just mesmerized by the overall quality! Thanks for all the musical inspiration absolutely timeless, enthralling works of art. Jam On!

[@emayfrit]

Andy, your latest work, Fury From Above is just a godsend of musical excellence! The whole vibe of the entire album is Just Luminous! The song Aftermath reminds me of a thrilling adventure I had recently with my brother! The spectrum of excellence is just over the top...Cheers!!!...Oh yeah, did I ever tell you a book worth listening to on audible is The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown...If you enjoy intrigue, that's a very good work of fiction...alluded to within are a plethora of amazing facts! I read it last November, fantastic book...A Must Read...JAM ON!!!

[@xlr8r2010]

Jesus...Andy is so good, incredible musician! 🤘

[@colbyphillips1742]

Andy just wanted to say thank you for your breakdown videos, i understand how much time and effort it takes to make something that in-depth. Since watching your videos my playing has improved drastically. Truly one of the cleanest, technically shredding guitarist that i've ever seen

[@TheGatsbyAffair]

Probably the most beautiful thing I’ve ever heard.

[@mrmisterman999]

always nice to see players breaking the scalar-linear model and playing with intervalic phrasing i.e. octave interactions and unique phrases

[@martinhladky5495]

Perfect

[@ThoRick]

Extremly Nice ❤

[@АндрейОришич-я1ю]

Это шедевр! Преклоняюсь перед твоим талантом! Спасибо!!!!!!!

[@1CLOOOUD]

Holy Andy James Guitar player🎸😱❗Mega Impressive Always with your song and mega Variation of melody and tone🎵🎶😱❗👏👍🤙👌👊so sad than i can push the like only one😅...1000..i likes this

[@emayfrit]

Mr. AJ, one of the many reasons I like to rock various tunes, is that it is a centerpiece in my enriched environment. As I mentioned before, in the book Mega Brain Power, it was found that rats in an enriched environment had more interconnections in brain cells, more dendrites on their brain cells, branch like receptors for neuro transmitters. They had more grey matter. I don't mean to say playing your music amounts to mere mental calisthenics, however, I would far rather give my brain a workout learning and improvising with your Very HQ music than by doing crossword puzzles. I embrace challenge with No Boundaries!💥! I try to add to the flavor of your fan base comments, and it brings me joy and inspiration when I can say something substantive. The music I yearn to play is far reaching, and it gives my life a consistent challenge, inspiration and satisfaction. The music selection to choose to play these days has never been better, and I am thankful to myself for investing the time in practice, performance and development. Thanks to you as well for your incredible inspiration and all the immensely rich masterpieces you have added to the repertoire of today's Great Music...HAVE FUN MF!!!💥!!!

[@zubair671]

What an intro! Amongst the best!

[@halimahima480]

Amazing!!! I discovered you just recently and I'm really enjoying your playing. Keep playing mate you are rocking!!

[@Roam865]

The mix is always badass

I’ve seen countless of Andy’s videos, and whatever he plug into, he always sounds as himself: amazing.

[@emayfrit]

Tortex flow 1.35 is a 🏆 VERSATILE PICK! THANKS

[@emayfrit]

One thing of course, ONLY the Ultex Flow original delivers is a pick attack that most resembles, blends and or matches the sound of a hammer on and pull off! A pick for every trick, a plectrum for your electrum alchemical experience!

[@emayfrit]

Use the tortex flow 1.35 mm minimum, and only if you mean business on the guitar!! Hahahaha, this is a high precision, high torque tool!!! 🔥 Burn it Down -MF

[@emayfrit]

Yeah that pick is pretty wild! hahahaha

[@emayfrit]

🔥Andy, make sure to try the Dunlop Prime Tone pick, if you haven't already, its shaped like the Ultex wide, except listening back to recordings the tone is considerably better. I switch picks a lot too, maybe its a tad bit slower which is like picking weights hahahaha...I bust back a couple Oktoberfest dark brews to celebrate the Falcon God...🔥Cheers!🔥!🎃!

[@emayfrit]

I am certain and tested, that the Prime Tone Dunlop pick sound quality improvement is not attributable to newer strings or anything like that....🔥Jam on!🔥!🔥!

[@ErikEkholm]

Awesome! 👏

[@emayfrit]

One of the 300 Spartans of Instrumental Guitar to order the Arrival Vinyl. Sir Andy James is incapable of doing any justice to the Melodic Minor scale in his music, which is why he never seems to attempt it. Just kidding Andy, I'd just love to see what you can do with that, listening to Bernd Steidl's second album, its great. I'd just love to see what the great Metal and Ballad Maestro Frontiersman as yourself could do with that. Maybe another 20 licks in Melodic Minor with a Backing Track. Maybe I'll write that program, since AJ is too busy busting em back, just kidding - thanks,I appreciate all your hard work and everything!

[@Windir-gp8wk]

not a single comment about this fucking great plugin. It's sick. Andy nailed it.

!💥!Tortex flow may be the best pick, but the AJ pick is great too, the texture of the AJ flow, seems identical to the dunlop prime tone pick!💥!

[@emayfrit]

!💥😎💥! Andy, when you go on tour with Metallica, you should give James and Kirk each a copy of the Jam With Andy James DVD, tell Em its from some MF you know and I'll pay for the copies....AHTAHTHAHAHA...I would love to see them guys like kids in a candy store making up solos to them tracks!💥!💥!

Dont know why i like every part of this song, the riff, solo, The sound, etc. Perfect shredding with harmony inside ❤️👍

[@emayfrit]

Leisure yes, you still have to record all jams, listen back with pen, paper and track marking capabilities. Listen back at least 1.1 speed like YJM, Satriani, AJ all record and listen!

[@reuwas82]

Andy, the sound is fantastic. Very Congratulations!

[@emayfrit]

PG 5 is a Lose it or Use it megatrack with adjustable track marks and track speed adjustment capabilities. It has my top 5 Gilbert tracks blended in. Got to get back into it with the Prevalence of time mandates, loops of nectar spots, long term plodding. Fuzz Universe, Olympic, Techinical Difficulties, Viking Kong and Curse of the Castle Dragon, hahahaha, Jam on!!!!🔥

[@emayfrit]

As always some tuning adjustments were madeto suit the modulation of keys and tunings, huhuhahahahahah!!!!

[@emayfrit]

Another way to do it is gratifying first draft, carefully, record the bits via aux in one movement at a time, focussing on transitions, some will be better than others, nevertheless keep moving on forward capturing the preferred blended essence of all tracks, then move the full speed recording to song surgeon in one massive 15 to 20 minute file or whatever. Make fifty pecent speed the new base speed for the megatrack. The new recorders can play this track at 110, 120, etc, 150, etc, 200p would be full speed in this case, and no the slow downs are clear as a bell, it sounds clear and perfect. Anything to avoid sweep picking or being a mouse potatoe for a a bit, hahahaha. Imagine if you could have grown up with that capability?!!!

[@emayfrit]

The painstaking way is to export and test each clip transition independently, when you are on a roll that can be done last. AJ, ideas an achieve a nuclear chain reaction. That is when an idea attains critical mass. By the way, I have little to no ego, so i dont care how it gets out there, it will fine tune the overflow of genius that is out there, I believe. Thanks for pushing the idea in bits so far. By the way, i knew you would love the nylon string jam, that sound is incredible to hold and behold!

[@emayfrit]

And AJ was already doing something similar at a very young age he tells us in Andy Woods woodshed!

[@emayfrit]

It may not be the main course of action in the ascension of the next Tony MacAlpine, but for the average amateur avid guitar player, it may even help them develop technique in ways more interesting than playing scales, etc

[@drew1035]

[@emayfrit]

...Hey, I got this setlist I call Concerto of Destruction, and of all the artiststs, featured, its got just one small War March section..It has apx 14 months of digital dust, although it is fun for me to play and helps me maintain and build my technique and repertoire on the ready, I tried not to sound too much like a Circus act putting it together...Anyways, I play set lists, with and without AJ material, but the more AJ they feature, the less like a Circus Act they sound...A.HAHAHAHAHA...🔥🎸🔥CHEERS, JAM ONNN!🔥!

[@emayfrit]

For example, about the lyrics, on AfterLife, I like the way the lyrics get right in your face, indignantly, in a noble big brotherly way...and yeah this fuckin disaster, it does just go, ON AND ON AND ON, and a big reason, is so many people are just singing along with full on Stockholm Syndrome...Cheers, MF, Cheers to Chris too, Honor and Valor Carved in Stone, to quote Become the Firestorm 🔥🔥🔥🎸🔥🔥🔥. JAM ON MFS!👊🔥!

[@emayfrit]

💥😎💥Mr. AJ the new 5FDP music video is Amazing...you guys got your finger on the Zeitgeist...Hey I got this great new guitar pick you should try out from amazon..it is the clayton coconut shell pick.

[@emayfrit]

💥😎💥There is a great audible book that is exploding right now called Atomic Habits, also, A More Complete Beast is a pretty good one although on the latter book, I am not as much of a zealot as the author is on tribalism, but I would not throw out the baby with the bath water...all your fans are your tribe...A More Complete Beast is more to me about becoming more of the best of who you are...striving and thriving....keep on keeping on!💥😎💥!
