[@deck444]

I was worried about leaving my 150$ classical guitar laying flat on the top of my closet because of the effect of the gravity on the neck. Now that I´ve seen a 1950´s strat being pulled from a pile of guitars on the floor I am no longer worried. THANK YOU MR MALMSTEEN!!!

[@aleekazmi]

just remember he can buy another if it breaks

[@sideeffectsduo6029]

he gets antoher one for free :)

Not a 50's strat!

[@brianjones8432]

A guitar is not a piece of art.... It's a workhorse. Plain and simple.

[@frankpaws]

F'in hilarious. First of 10 strats, "Band bump boom". Not a piece of art, but the 54 is a piece of history. At least he didn't mod it. All My guitars got dings.dirt scratches and all. Literally got my 2017 YJM, got hammered and feel into a book shelf holding the guitar. Plastic isn't even off the fret board yet. Of course, for YM a neck change is an easy thing. I'm sure a lot of the necks have been replaced on the touring ones. I still have my second guitar. Ibanez RG550 from 1990. Worn frets, grunk on the fret board, major nicks out of the body, few stripped screws. Battle scars.

[@cujemi55]

People lose their heads over the condition of my Les Paul, the dings and scoffs make her play better.

Most guitarists have a huge variety of different guitar styles both in the way they sound and the way they look. Malmsteen has 45 off-white strats.

[@SunaKhei93]

I think people just misunderstood his humor as "arrogance and ego", I think he's a nice guy, and a legend. I think there's no one other than him who has that excellent technique, especially that effortless right hand rotation mechanic picking.

[@KingTabor]

+SunaKhei93 agree 100%. He´s got chops and humour

[@bykeman69]

I think you are right...I think he is just confident in what he does and what he thinks...he's funny

[@KingTabor]

nowadays Al DiMeola has this 'arrogant image' - he's always in trouble on Facebook, after posting against pop artists, or guitarists 'that plays few notes' etc.

[@Malpractice2003]

Yeah. That's the only thing about him: technical. Just it. No feeling, anything...

[@t.baitman]

He’s a well-known asshole, no need to excuse him

[@AbyssOfShred]

I don't get why people think Malmsteen is a horrible guy. I never met him but he comes across to me as a normal guy but knows he has plenty of talent and he's proud of himself

[@alexroyster182]

Everyone complaining about his treatment of his guitars. It's hilarious. He's got a nice array of beautiful antique guitars and doesn't bother me at all because they are his. He also can play them all better than any of us on any day of the week blindfolded and hands tied up.

[@robertedwards6731]

LMMFAO!!!!

[@OneBiteoftheCherry]

So guitar stands were too expensive then?

[@tomitstube]

TheBlisterer they take up to much room, especially with that many guitars, you wouldn't be able to reach the back ones.

[@OneBiteoftheCherry]

***** If I had that many guitars I'd have a large room specifically for keeping guitars in. Wall brackets come in so handy, and I'd have them in different rooms of the house too. Besides, why the hell does he need or even want so many of the same guitar? Like literally 90% of those guitars are exactly the same and probably feel and sound the same. I never did understand Yngwie's infactuation with vanilla coloured strats...or whatever grotesque colour that is.

[@tomitstube]

TheBlisterer lol, to each his own i guess, yngwie isn't a neat freak, some people are like that, i would describe myself as a lazy slob when it comes to domestic order, my desks are covered etc. i never put anything away, i don't get neat freaks, it's too time consuming and i have a limited supply of free time.

[@OneBiteoftheCherry]

***** you can only work to your needs

[@PrinceWesterburg]

TheBlisterer I have racks for my guitars, stands are pointless for that many. I heard Lars (Yngwie) has a gold strat hanging by one tuner on a small nail in the wall. Honestly, that '54 strat is almost priceless - its the same batch Dave Gilmour's strat came from. Though, Lars does bullshit endlessly, so it probably isn't a '54

[@levisalvini4110]

I love this man... He is LEGENDARY and funny. Often his humor is mistaken with arrogance..... he's not arrogant, he's Yngwie J Malmsteen, the creator of neoclassical movement, let's all think about that for a minute. Yngwie changed the way of playing Guitar for many, if not for all after him...just like EVH or Jimi Hendrix. He is a piece in the pyramid of music, and a musical genius. By the way, if some time he's little cocky, he earned that right. Is YJM for God sake!!!!!

[@johndo9648]

I don't see him banging his guitars around like everyone is saying. He lays them down and then lets them go, and maybe they slide around a little but that's it. They're his tools and that's how he sees them. They all look in good condition to me and he has had them for years and years.

[@bizzle1783]

It's his stuff and at the end of the day he can do whatever he wants with it. People crying saying I wouldn't do this or that blah blah we're not on this mans level infact we're so far removed from his reality it's not even worth having an opinion

[@janpieper558]

"this is one of the first stratocasters ever made". throws it back on the pile....

[@munnsey77]

'This is one of the first Strats made' - immediately whacks it into the one leaning on the front of it! I love his attitude to these guitars- so refreshing to see someone who obviously loves these things but does not treat them like holy relics- yeah they're 60 years old- so what?! He has a healthy irreverence towards them-I think so many of us get hung up on the details of vintage and relics these days, always searching for a an ideal and lose the whole point of what guitars are all about- looking mean and making noise- what ever guitar you use!

[@CountryHouseGent]

I suppose for him the guitars are just a functional tool to get a job done. Do you really worry about every scratch and ding you get on a favourite chisel? No, it just gets thrown in the draw of your workbench until you need it next time, regardless of whether it is new or 40 years old. It's solely in the eyes of the individual if they place an emphasis on old items or turn something into an object of wonder and awe, whether that's the owner or not.

[@markg0410]

I agree with your premise but we are talking about vintage guitars.

[@markg0410]

Jim Kim That’s a solid point. “Look, it’s a relic!!!”

[@burncriP17]

I love it how when your not famous you try to take as much care of your guitars as you can, but when your this guys status you can just leave a bunch of super not cheap guitars just lying in a pile on the damn floor, rock on yngwie

[@zigzignuts]

But they sure are getting the relic treatment aren't they? Check out my 54 with hand wound pups....klumk!!!

[@mutley365]

I actually liked the way he was just chucking the guitars down. They are after all just a tool. I have a couple of guitars I treat like that as they look like they need a kicking. However, I have a Jackson DK2S and Ibanez Prestige that would look completely crap if they were beat up, so I'm a bit more delicate with them.

[@ZFMusicTheEmperor]

'need a kicking' lol

[@mutley365]

***** Seriously? I thought it was obvious, an honest opinion, delivered with a bit of humour. Hardly one of Shakespeare's sonnets...

[@netrioter]

The 54... Im sure it will get extra points for Yngwie pouring Coors Light on it and throwing it on the floor and nicking the shellac. He has 40+ million in guitars at auction...probably more. He knows it because hes that good. It makes him an arrogant fuck.

[@Bargeonin]

This is one of the first Stratocasters ever made so I keep it on the top of the pile.

[@speedoftone2682]

[@ElmoPansy]

"This is one of the first Strats ever made." *throws on pile*

[@Carvin5150CFH]

To everyone that is so obsessed with how he treats his guitars on this video: You need to wake up and realize those are all his guitars.He can afford to do whatever he damn well pleases with them and certainly doesn't need any random jackasses stamp of approval on how to treat them.The man has pioneered this style of guitar playing for going on 40 years.He gets free guitars whenever he wants,he'll be okay.You don't need to worry yourselves about how he treats his guitar collection. Instead of that pointless activity,why not attempt to aim your "concern" towards the idea that if you bust your ass for the rest of your life, maybe you will luck out and get to be half as good as he is now.- Good luck with that...

[@richardmoule2870]

+Carvin5150CFH he is a total bell end - I took great pleasure seeing him throw his toys out his pram in 2000 when Guthrie Govan made him look like a total jerk after he had shredded load of kids off the stage while supposedly doing a workshop, he had no idea who guthrie was and treated him the same until he got his ass handed to him and stormed off stage in a strop, He is a clown, a very fast widdly clown with no soul. He is the pioneer of being a total dick and is definitely the worlds best at that. very fast though, soulless, tuneless, but very very fast

[@Carvin5150CFH]

You're too hung up on his demeanor when he's not playing the guitar.I'm talking about his guitar work,the fact that he started that particular style of guitar playing in general,mastered it and people either love it or hate it. But I ask how can you hate it when its something nobody was doing before him to the extent in the way that he does it.As for Guthrie Govan, he is obviously a great player, but Malmsteen has been doing his thing since before Guthrie was born. You really think Malmsteen has no feeling to his play, that's ridiculous.For example listen to a song he did called"Spasebo Blues."-No feeling my ass. Watch his video "Rising Force live '85". That's when people either start hating him because they can't play it or they recognize true talent and they know he's a great player, it's just that simple. You must have been somewhat interested in him because you would have never read my post or watched video to begin with if you hated him so much.

[@discofudge]

+Richard Moule Are you saying you were there?

[@ODFGERTERS]

Strats are pick up trucks and should be treated as such. The only reason these assembly line guitars are worth a lot of money is because of people conned into thinking old guitars are special. It is the most copied guitar on Earth. He is just treating them the same way Leo Fender did. Nostalgia is boring and expensive. The notes are the only thing with value.

[@fragment7]

[@robertschris82]

[@roxguitarman86]

TheNeverendingGory just a little thought tho.... the older is the guitar the older is the wood that it's made from, the older the wood the brighter is the sound... perhaps a little truth on older guitar sounding better it true... still some time are way expensive but giving the fact that to have a high end guitar the wood needs to name from the centre of the tree.. not at the bottom or top cos its to dry or wet.... there is a loot to take in consideration when buying the guitar... shape and colour are the last factors... :) x

[@cletisevans7964]

I wore a Halloween mask while filming this and interviewing Yngwie, besides me, (I helped on his demo and Rising Force(erection crew lol)the only thing slowing Yngwie down was "CIGARETTE LIGHTERS" so he bought torches to smoke crack. He still sounds like a Ferrari engine on guitar. I had the honors of constantly changing guitar strings on the first three albums or so in his home studio. Heeheeheeheeheeho Wipe Out! The song was a hit in 1946 for Jan August, an American pianist and "EviL" xylophonist nicknamed "the one-man piano duet". It gained worldwide popularity through Dick Dale's 1962 American surf rock version, originally titled "Miserlou/Egyptian Girl. My father was a member of The Ventures for a while as a guitarist and worked for Western Electric, and Liberty Studios and knew Jimi Page,Elvis,The Beatles , The Marines Beach Boys and The Chipmunks. As a kid I'd steal The lead guitarist of The Ventures, Dentures...and hide them in his boots

[@Lonnie_Johnson]

I don't see why he is an ''egotistical piece of shit'' for keeping his guitars on the floor. What's next hating him for wearing his Rolex instead of keeping it in a displaycase? Yngwie uses his guitars with the purpose they were made for which is too play on. All the hate is just envy really, from collectors who dream about a guitar like that but can't afford it. Too him it's just a guitar (and that's really all it should be). Yngwie is a guitarhero to me, but he is a human too who wakes up get his coffee like everybody else. It's us that make people or objects bigger than they really are and I think it's very hypocritical to hate someone for having something valueable and not treating it the way you would. We're all different and in the end of the day they're his guitars, he can do whatever he wants with them. It's not like he's smashing them in his parking lot is he? And to all those haters.. I bet half of you wouldn't have the balls to say something like that to him in person.

[@InfiniteRhombus]

+Robin Hage because it causes the value to depriciate, if that is truly one of the first 10 strats made it should be in the smithsonian instead of languishing about on fat shits floor, and yeah I called him a fat shit, anyone can shred and play guitar fast, he can play paganini scores but other then that shredding is 0 musical ability, everyone shreds.

[@JonahLukeHeavyshield]

I wouldn't get cheeky with him in person just saying... He'd throw me over his shoulder like his guitar hahaha.

[@Carvin5150CFH]

+Iggy Tubmen: First thing,it's his guitar.All those guitars are. He has no obligation to anybody for what he does with them. The same would apply to you, me, and everybody else. Also,unless you live on the moon,you should be smart enough to know that he does much more than just"shred". Listen to"Rising Force"(it's over 30 years old by the way) tell me he's just a one trick pony after you hear it all the way through. If everybody can do it then that means you should be able to aswell right? By your logic anyways. Good luck with that. He's much more diverse than that. Nylon string classical, acoustic, bass,and he seems to be pretty well versed at electric but I don't know if you realize that which leaves a lot to be said about your judgment.If anybody can play fast and shred Paganini, you should be able to match him then right? You'll need a lot more than the ability to play fast to pull that off. By saying he has"zero musical ability" you automatically qualify yourself for not knowing anything about how he plays or what he's about. Name something, I bet he can play it and do a better job then 99% of people plus he would be incorporating his own style into it which just makes it that much more remarkable. Typical that someone would give him credit only for being a fat shit as you put it, yet you conveniently forget he would outplay you or anyone you call your favorite. Not to forget he's been doing it likely since before you were born. But none of that is worth anything right?If you think he's just a speed player then that means you don't get what he's doing because it's too much for you to handle and is simply over your head.Outplay him and I'll take back everything I wrote.That should be interesting(much like a train wreck)You shouldn't paint yourself in a corner like that. It kind of helps to throw your credibility out the window.

That's ridiculous .Get over yourselves. ALOT of you people are missing the point. Its not a popularity contest or a personality parade or anything of the sort. Fuck that stupid trendy bullshit.

It's not as nice as the 1969 Deluxe, but I still cherish it. Your SG sounds really cool. I played one on a recording years ago, those babies have a distinct tone that cannot be copied.

Look at that forest of guitars! I wish he wouldn’t scallop ALL of those rare guitars but hey, they’re his to do with as he pleases.

i love him the best guitarist in the world and the most smartest

Back in 80s one of the guitar players that I knew had a guitar with scalloped fingerboard kinda Yngwie style. He let me play on it for a while, and man, I was so amazed how easy, smooth and fast it played.

that 54 strat 1/10 is priceless he has atleast $100,000-$200,000 worth in guitars right there

Mr. Malmsteen, I would love to use any.one of those guitars for my next studio recording, I promise I will use a guitar stand.

I got it...a mix between Marlon Brando and Russel Crowe And...he can do what the fuk he wants with his guitars. He's done more with his guitars than you could ever hope and dream. He's earned it...have you?

Fender: Hey Yngwie, how many guitars do you want to make? Yngwie: Yes!

[@MrStradia]

I think it's wild how he scallops out all his fretboards. Crazy. And I am also amazed how he treats his guitars. Also crazy.
