Yvette Young | Approaching Guitar Like a Piano | Artist Toolkit

[@sgmarshall3]

For someone so brilliant, she seems very down to Earth and normal. This was really cool!

[@bassfingers]

A modern-day guitar treasure.

[@fender4brad]

One of my favorite guitar players, have you noticed there’s not a lot of covers of her music? 😂 very creative, and out of the box playing!

[@umbra_ydn]

I've been drumming for a long time now, but I also took guitar in high school so it's always been on the back burner. Watching and learning more about the technique Yvette uses really helps me approach guitar in a completely different way. Her and John Browne are two of the biggest influences for me - their playing is so percussive that it sometimes feels like I can play the drums on the fret board. And Yvette's approach to melody is just insanely inspiring...music is just the coolest thing.

[@yuan_yuan275]

Your technique is truly amazing. And yy10 is the coolest guitar!!!!!!!!

[@fordsrestorations970]

Thank you lady , this is where I'm gravitating to . I can definitely take your experience with your familiarity with the violin and keyboard as trusted information.

[@damnablethief]

She has truly mastered the fretboard

[@justinorange8903]

Legend 🔥☀️🌿

[@nickhayes5471]

As a guitar player I watch you play and just think wow where does it come from, so unique and unlike anything else I’ve heard 🎸🎸🎶

[@Ottlovesyou]

Gosh she’s too cool⚡️

[@bmg696]

Your playing is so unique and beautiful!

[@ottovonb60]

Love music. Don't know anything about how it's created. Watching Yvette is like witnessing some kind of crazy witchcraft. That's just one reason it's so wonderful - the mystery. I don't have the faintest idea what she's talking about but I sure do enjoying listening to her explain it, and create it. Cheers.

[@Phadddy]

Awesome tips, thanks so much!

[@ObsidianLife]

...Love how you play! So good!

[@flyingtrackerz22]

Beautiful sounds, you can combine with piano too

[@j3ffn4v4rr0]

[@lefujyou]

[@lokidecembeer4196]

You should sing exactly as u talk, love even hear u on that kinda casual way u got to be lol , always feel u through the years like such colourful honest soul xd

[@travisjanz4738]

I love seeing these modern electric guitar players using finger style in the main spotlight it makes me feel like less of a noodler knowing the pick is overrated.

[@gadymarcus2362]

Bella/linda.👄👄👄👄👄👄🌡️

[@willft520]

Yvete Young is pretty amazing, I'm not gonna lie.

[@JesseStG-i8p]

I had said this same thing to my grade 9 music teacher, it's just layered

[@minigeos]

priceless

[@mikkosutube]

i guess that the tuning is good for this style of playing using tapping technique..chords..probably not useful..but that is what makes her a great guitarist..she knows how to integrate with the guitar in a way to best present her musical material..

[@jrbattista193]

Van Halen was a hard rock shredder. Great of course, but the tapping here seems more complex - EVH had women in love and little guitars intro but not much else was polyphonic. Apples and oranges - both styles great though

[@landonriceig]

Im CONSISTANTLY awestruck by guitarists like her, i have such trouble even understanding simple melody, so when i hear and see someone demonstrate their skills like this I get a little overwhelmed... but hey maybe i'm just musically mute

[@koonsickgreen6272]

Emily harpist brougt me here. Lol. I like your style. Ur rizz too..hahaha

[@guitarguitaruk]

Thanks for coming! 👌

[@kubricksghost6058]

It's a REALLY cool way of playing! I love the harmonies but I wish it had more crunch(metal type of distortion and rhythms)

[@rede5426]

Study Blind Blake / Rev. Gary Davis if you want to play guitar like a stride piano.

[@QBRX]

Wow, this level of playing takes a musical savant.

[@SomeOne-uy4kj]

Bottom line: you're making a sound. The ones narcissists who get in your face and tell one they're not playing this and that right..pay them no mind. And I like the sound she makes. Cheers!

[@kenjikodai]

If I approach the guitar as a piano, I'll go from beginner to super rookie and I'll be worse lol

[@notclosing8485]

What if you don't know how to play piano either? 😂

[@dsvet]

Stanley Jordan did this decades ago.

[@vincentlussier8264]

Yep! But we all learn from others!

[@dsvet]

@@vincentlussier8264 yeah bit at no time did she acknowledge that. She acts like this technique is something new

[@joeyrhorror]

I never understand why people compare tapping to piano on guitar. They are completely different. Positioning, layout of notes, ergonomics, the only thing similar is that you use two hands to make noise. I am so tired of hearing, I played the piano therefore two hand tapping, or I approach the guitar like a piano. You don't, you approach it like a guitar, and use your other hand to produce more notes on the scale. Tapping has been around since before most of us where born, it's not new.

[@eddiel798]

Great guitar tapping but doesn’t resemble a piano.

[@johnbrown4568]

Or...how to make a guitar sound...NOT like a guitar. I'll skip...very talented player though.

[@owlperchedsilo3745]

put the guitar away and just play the piano Yvette!
