Hello. This is me playing at my high school's talent show with my amazing PRS SE Paul Allender guitar. I've only been playing for 1.5 years, so don't say that I suck. Have a most excellent day, everyone.

[@Hawaiiweekend]

At least he's not sitting on the couch, commenting....

[@jenidu9642]

I'm sitting on the toilet, thank you VERY much

[@lynchlink01]

Having long hair helps.

[@ovguy2k]

It actually does!!

[@lynchlink01]

ovguy2k 😊 short hair is for rappers

[@wGScopez]

and thats why i hate nickleback cause chad cut his hair

[@8renato8]

lynchlink01 rob halford its rapper i didnt know it

[@joeytollison9238]

***** no, no hair is for rappers lol

[@peterapazidis8889]

All you people on here ever do is insult a guitarist by saying "yeah thats an easy riff" I see this on nearly every video of someoe playing guitar. And I bet half the people who say it don't even play guitar

[@brocklesnerd1283]

And for the 90% werent as good at this kids age

[@leoli6116]

I'm at the 1.5th year on guitar and consider myself a relatively faster learner. This guy is light years ahead of me.

[@dasjake116]

If I had a dollar for every time a kid played eruption at a talent show I would have 6 hundred million dollars.

[@smoshfan587]

Jequisha how? there are only 7 million people in the world????

[@dasjake116]

smoshfan587 You dumbass. I know you are joking, haha.

[@smoshfan587]

Jequisha :D

[@alexveldhuis6004]

+smoshfan587 try billion

[@byrne5948]

DasJake if I had a dollar for every time someone plays smoke on the water I would be a rich man

[@blueheron5232]

How many guitar players does it take to change a light bulb? Just one to do it but as many as you can find to say... "I could do it better." The young man's demonstrating very strong technique. His timing is clean and consistent throughout. He clearly has a very good teacher, one who's taught him how to get the most out of his practice time. Once this guy has a couple years of regular gigging under his belt I'd pay cash money to see him.

[@conflicttv1153]

He probably trained himself. From what I've seen, guitarists who train themselves are usually the best and learn faster. Chuck from Death taught himself, and he's crowned Father of Death Metal.

[@willykakka]

Conflict TV I do think this kid can play! But picking few examples from the pool of millions don't really count. There's more people that can play and got teached and actually the ones that got teached are indeed much better. (comparing is for retards. music is about indivitiuality, not competition). I have 2 students but i don't find myself as "teacher"... but i do know lot of techniques, tricks and some theory. I learned on my own but occasionally my older brother has helped me develop myself... it's not about do you get teached or do you learn it by yourself... it is about PRACTISING!!! figuring out music! Many people spend their time arguing (me on this hand) and not playing... playing makes you better and playing more with variety makes you more open minded musically...

[@REEFBLUENOTCH]

P Czapla................Well it's BEEN well over a "couple years" (coming up on six years) since this video was put out. He's out of high school...it's now 2015, and he's come a long way since.

[@gregraines1599]

Conflict TV Even Jimmy Page took lessons from John McLaughlin.

[@conflicttv1153]

greg raines I meant generally guitarists who teach themselves are good. I know there are many guitarists out there who took lessons, but I know many, such as Chuck Schuldiner, Alexi Laiho and many others were decently young when they bought their first guitars, and then taught themselves to play (like literally taught themselves. No KZbin or shit (because they didn't have KZbin)).

[@jonztwn]

For all those guys saying they can do better, give us the link to your solo we'll decide.

[@BPskiSchool]

exactly.. and they wont.

[@Boltgunmetal94]

Not one after 7 years lol

[@starplatinum727]

Still none

[@louque4978]

even after 15 years now lol

[@1954ggb]

Keep at it son, Rock & Roll is ALIVE and well. To all you young people out there, the music is the secret to internal transformation. It is Life.

[@danyeun01]

i know this is random but who else agrees moonlight sonata mov. 3 sounds great on electric guitar? if you havent heard it, you should search it up.

[@typocat9168]

finger tapping xD nothing like that shit to make the crowd look on awe nice one kid your secret is safe with me

[@GrimmsHouseofHorror]

DJMinX finger tapping can be fun as shit to play in a song though, only if you do a small portion though, you gotta feel all parts of the guitar lol like your making love to the thing

[@shanealan2995]

Takes balls to get up and do a guitar solo like this in highschool!

[@autizmo2963]

Everyone saying he's shit. "Oh its because he said Insane in the title" So? who cares? You didn't have to click the video. He wasn't too bad considering his experience at the time. Just let him enjoy his guitar playing. Let other people enjoy it too. You don't have to put everyone down.

[@andreit3601]

Very nice! Good form. You clearly have a good, high paced guitar teacher and it seems you have put in a lot of practice (yet its still hard to believe that you managed to do all this within 1.5 years). But if i may politely critique, although it was a wonderful showcase of technique i thought that it lacked soul and logical musical progression. You got all the tricks in the bag: tapping, pick sweeps, palm mutes, pulloffs, hammer ons, etc, but unless you arrange them in a melodic way, you produce a piece that sounds impressive yet bland and tasteless. Guitar soloing is not all about how fast you can play random licks. Learning scales can help a lot. My god... how many years of pain i could have saved if i had your guitar teacher! :)

[@chanceybryant4972]

Keep in mind this is a kid lol look at the one reflecting here this kid is amazing

[@PPioner]

typical middle aged guitar «elitist». let the guy play, soul into it will come later. with that said i don’t think you are able to play this lmao🤣🤣🤣

[@andreit3601]

True, 7 years later, this kid would still kick my kid ass any day.

[@euphoricatlast]

The song he was playing after the sweep picking was Ewan Dobson - Level 2, if you're wondering. Originally played on Acoustic.

[@rrhoads007]

marie nora It's actually Big Sur Moon by Buckethead

[@euphoricatlast]

11THLANDING Then someone's plagiarizing the other because they sound awfully similar..

[@euphoricatlast]

I'm assuming Big Sur moon came first though.

[@rrhoads007]

marie nora Yes. Late 90's, I think.

[@madnsdestiny]

marie nora apparently any song that has an echoing effect is copying something lmao, ewan dobson doesn't even have a song called level 2 and time 2 isn't even close to this

[@rockmetallyrics7359]

the problem with kids today is that they dont know how to get off the gain and all the pointless metal shredding

[@EndlessVoid98]

Stereotyping like usual...

[@mbs100k]

The kid is showing it off in a couple minutes. So shred it up. It kicks the shit out of cRAP.

[@rockmetallyrics7359]

i mean you can do so much more with a Schecter

[@tonymarinelli7304]

Michael Shutes Very good point, I would rather listen to this than that shit they call rap (crap)

[@rockmetallyrics7359]

Michael Shutes how does cRAP came here?!?

[@kizzoken9759]

Bro absolutely destroyed that talent show. Hands fkn down. Period. He’s winning in life for sure. 💯💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

[@TheChungassSupreme]

Lordy, a Paul Allender SE? And only 1.5 years at that time? Son, you're gonna go places. I'm sure you're gonna be the next Freddie.

[@koreyhudgins1431]

Oh no no noooo, close, but not Freddie. :) He did really good though.

[@luckythewolf6411]

it's 1 1/2, not 1.5

[@TheChungassSupreme]

wolf master same thing, genius.

[@luckythewolf6411]

Just saying

[@TheChungassSupreme]

wolf master both are correct. Woo l why the semantics?

[@ktown4life1337]

3:15 buckethead!!!

[@szymonbalcer]

No thats not insane. Thats just tapping. Probably the easiest thing to learn when you spend some time on it. An insane solo is a solo that is enjoyable to listen to. Not fast.

[@benlangbein924]

Exactly No emotion, no feeling,

[@bsg563]

so true! young musicians are playing nothing but same fast power chords and tapping but they don't even know the greatest guitarists such as Joe bonamassa, eric johnson or mark knopfler

[@lalogreiner]

Simeey I agree. Technique is not art.

[@szymonbalcer]

Lalo Greiner Creativity is art :)

[@Itzsfo0]

Simeey no thats just your opinion, someone can like this MORE then some slow "emotional" solo w/ what you call "heart" some may prefer this, I prefer fast over anything zeppeling has ever done w/ jimmy page (doesnt mean i dont respect them as artists I do) but I dont like the average rhythm and blues guitar player...I prefer eddie van halen, I prefer joe satriani, steve vai, speed metal, "virtuosity" speed and precisioN DOES take skill say whatever you want its music, its PREFERENCE/taste nobody is right :)

[@theresehughes7323]

This kid is amazing. I always come back to this video. Ive showed this to alot of people. Crazy good.

[@theshybabe]

oh my god. I've never heard anything so amazing aside from anything Eddie Van Halen has played. GREAT JOB! (:

[@Double0Smirk]

I feel like I suck now since I've played for nearly a year now and am nowhere near that level

[@TherealHRF]

Haha you and me both dude but I am closer to 2 yrs and still suck!

[@1p6t1gms]

I love how he exited the stage at 5:07; he gives everyone the one finger salute.

[@rrhoads007]

1p6t1gms haha It does look like I'm flipping everyone off! I never noticed that! It's actually the \m/ gesture.

[@bailyfranklin3450]

1p6t1gms d

[@karliemorton1347]

honestly all these comments hating on this kid is making me mad... like seriously I think thats impressive! freaking go on that stage and do what he does and see if you can do any better, and i bet you couldn't, so shut up and stop sitting behind the computer and criticizing someone else when you can't even come close to being that good. i honestly guys didn't mean this in a harsh way, but I'm being truthful and serious because thats so stupid that y'all are saying that stuff

[@bobbybays9591]

Cant tell if all the people saying he sucks are trolls or if they have never touched a guitar in their life

[@musicjunkie421]

+LENNON BLACK The whole solo is lackluster until he turned on the echo peddle. This solo is only amazing to people who don't know shit about music

[@maaaaaap]

i think it is more likely to be the other way around. Though he is pretty good for playing only 1.5 years

[@musicjunkie8771]

+LENNON BLACK Whoa. what'd I say? i don't remember ever watching this. sorry if I was an asshole.

[@miyukiichigo9870]

+Music Junkie lol maybe they typed the name wrong xD

[@BPskiSchool]

And you do? especially at that age?

[@martelli1273]

O mlk manja, pena que as pessoas não conhecem as músicas e, nem sabem oq ele ta fazendo, isso q me deixa triste quando vou tocar fora

[@Hollywood14895]

Kids some real talent! Don't let haters knock you down!

[@sparkster21]

2:10 Van Halen- Eruption very nice :)

[@yaya2006]

starting @ 2:46 till the end is one of the sickest guitar i have ever heard, awesomeness!!

[@emagist]

Search youtube for Ewan Dobson (Time 2)

[@crypto_div]

completely agree, no joke i've used this this as my ringtone for like 2 years

[@tonymarinelli7304]

HE is using a friggin delay pedal and is only playing a few notes at a time. You need to get out a little more.

[@Avenged_foREVer]

its big sur moon from buckethead

[@FrankPCarpi]

Fast fingers man, wow!

[@connorddiscgolf6335]

simple yet kicks ass at the same time

[@adarkerlight]

Came here for the title "Insane". Then I see the player is the uploader is the titler is the self-labeling ego.

[@nick718r2]

+adarkerlight I thought it was pretty insane. He deserves to be able to brag!

[@56conn6h]

+adarkerlight no shame

[@brocklesnerd1283]

Jealous of the success of a kid uh ? :)

[@Mudge0001]

great playing the first 3mins was a bit hard on the ears really but I'm old .. and I know it still took some learning to do.. but the 2nd part of the video after the pedal change was excellent.. well done.

[@theo9952]

Shredding will eventually evolve into non-music.

[@paulgreene7424]

like most music nowadays

[@LordGeyBoi]

Its still music to me

[@hillierutopia4554]

theo9952 I like the shredding. to me it is music. it's a passionate way to throw in emotion. but this rap music now a days has no passion.

[@theo9952]

Charles Hillier Well, when it comes to rap I agree with you. To me it is not even music. Shredding is impressive, no doubt about it, although some of it sounds like finger acrobatics which in my humble opinion, rather lack emotion. Still, I admire a shredder's dexterity.

[@mattvanhorn6866]

Just because you underappreciate the musical value of and dedication and advanced technique required to execute shredding, does not mean it isn't music. Grow up. Like it or not, music by definition is not limited to sappy repetitive, two note string bending, or electro dubstep.

[@DigitalCrack202]

2017 and its still awesome.

[@AndiAndDane]

You guys shouldn't be judging his head. Am I right or wrong? You know the answer.

[@thisispodracing3040]

Holy shit dude, extremely good. You're really going somewhere ;D

[@kickbam213]

yep he is going to be dissapointed if he leaves all cuz of his guitar cuz he got positive comentars on youtube (who most dont even play guitar) and then when he steps up to real crowd who plays that and knows to recognize good from bad he will be pushed to ground...I finished primary school (classical (spanish(Solfegge))) 6 years and I am going to rock middle academy school...trust me just that isnt good...but practice and maybe..

[@thisispodracing3040]

I love how you assume that I don't play...

[@kickbam213]

Hatty Hattington I love how ignorant you are...you can ply and suck like thius guy above and if that is good to you then you suck like him or eve n worse sorry..

[@thisispodracing3040]

Tim Slim Thanks man. Glad to see some cool people are still on the internet these days.

[@devilpuppetsinc]

Hatty Hattington I have watched a few different videos tonight (don't usually watch youtube but went through the rabbit hole tonight) and it seems on every video Kick Bam makes the same comments about his school and how great he is and how much these people suck. 11thlading, if you're ever in the Chicago area hit me up. I have been playing instrumental music for 12 years now and you are kicking some ass in this 5 years ago. I will look up your actual band later. Congrats man, that is great stuff for high school talent show and those who want to tear you down are probably cry baby dick heads. www.lostinblue.com

[@balockaybumblebee]

Love the buckethead. Spot on

[@ZomboBoxL7]

It's not called solo.... just several licks. solo is a whole composition. + here we can only see arpeggios, legatos and taping.

[@mrbianco1979]

shut up!

[@alejandrorubio118]

mark young delay pedal........ kinda obvious

[@markyoung5037]

obvious to someone who plays electric maybe! as i mentioned i only just got mine and unfamiliar with all the amps, pedals, effects! thanks for the arrogant response! appreciate it =)

[@ImminentCare]

It's called solo because he's playing alone.

[@ZomboBoxL7]

It's called playing solo part not solo. solo is whole composition not lots of other licks mixed together and warming up licks.

[@gss.L-05]

Delay.... Big Sur Moon...

[@Justanother94]

Yes I was stoked to hear that. Buckethead is one of the best

[@gss.L-05]

He did it justice.

[@justinkurlychek1091]

This kid did great... Why all the hate? I don't get it?!? What ever happened to supporting young talent?? You people make me sick!!! Keep rockin brother!

[@blackfalcondown580]

He has a few mistakes here and there, some are hard to notice, others are really clear. He is not bad to be honest, but I can do a lot better. Just kidding, he can fuck me any day of the week in a battle, really great player, I don't get why a lot of people keep pointing out his mistakes and keep saying that they can do better. Is this the kind of response you get when you start getting good at playing the guitar?

[@shaneasmith6]

nah mate this is what you get when you get good at anything, the talent-less drag down people with talent so they can feel good about themselves.

[@crashoutvergil]

I mean yeah it wasnt like crazy insane, but it was pretty damn good but yeah now that you have been playing a while im sure you are much better than this, still one of the best performances i have ever seen

[@simon4187]

The recording doesn't give this badass solo justice. Keep it up dude

[@tweedyburd007]

lookin hella like jimmy page at royal albert hall

[@barryvyskocil511]

Vaxtin Are you some kind of NUT! this wanker is playing bits and pieces of arpeggios scale runs using the tapping, hammer-on and pull-off's in a rather random fashion! I never heard a hint of Jimmy unless it was during a sad drunken 5 minute beer bottle for slide solo where he is lamenting the boredom that music has become. I heard nothing that this twerp played that reminded me in any way of say, the solo in Whole Lotta Love! The all time best guitar solo ever played! It is all there, and in just a few dozen seconds Jimmy plays everything that needed to be played as well as the most important parts where he didn't over play. Learn it, love it, understand it, and you can be up there with the greats! Until then Get a hair cut and get a real Job! YOUR GUITAR PLAYING SUCKS- TOTAL BOREDOM!

[@tweedyburd007]

Bruce Swansong i said he looks like him. not sound.

[@charliebrother8432]

Lol what a dumbest...

[@charliebrother8432]

*dumbass

[@waynesmith747]

+Barry Vyskocil just because you want to blow jimmy page doesn't make him the be all to end all, i love zepplin but i also love yngwie malmsteen,buckethead,gnr,metallica,lamb of god ,judas priest iron maiden,accept,rainbow,dio,black sabbath,five finger,van halen etc etc etc.

[@christiansectas]

I'm sorry but at that age, Jason Becker was doing that with one hand and playing with the yo yo with the other... I'm not kidding, I just think the title of this video is too misleading, I mean good job playing tons of good well done exercises, now, start composing and play something amazing cause you definitely have the potential to do that!

[@TheLastAbacus]

Kazbur lol That's the guitarist for Sectas, you're delusional my friend.

[@johndennis5182]

hey I read a lot of people on here putting this kid down, hey man that's Bullshit, how good were you back when you were a kid, at anything? this kid did a fine job, as he has a long time to go, I think by the time he hits 25, hes going to have matured a lot in his playing, and I think hes going to be a GREAT Guitar player.

[@buzzspiker]

Pretty good but that sweep pick at 1:30 or so was a hot steaming pile of shit no offense

[@BPskiSchool]

Yours?

[@briansimons3576]

this kid has extreme talent and taste. great sound, timing,control, and rock savy. boys and girls ... meet the future , rock on brother from another mother

[@longdark4ever]

The thing that gets me people say Insane and then try to impress with finger tapping, give me a break.

[@modelcitizen1977]

Typical guitarist nervous tic. Touches knobs 300 times. Adjusts nothing.

[@BPskiSchool]

show us your stuff or just shut up.

[@scottjm211]

Why would anyone dislike this? He's a young kid who has talent. Unbelievable.

[@Musictutorials101]

Not really a solo, more of a collection of parts of various songs

[@chrisdubay02]

You're not really a solo

[@matthewearl9824]

looks like a PRS. cost more than the kid.

[@stackhom656]

doesn't it look like an SE? or just me?

[@Arak_Drakoniz]

That kid has technique, but no creativity what with him overdoing it with the tapping... and that amp sounds terrible. Also, I doubt he was only playing for 1.5 years at the time, I'm sure it was longer than that. That seems to be a thing among musicians, saying that they've been playing for less than they actually have been playing.

[@russjones3415]

Suck it

[@santeriyla-jarkko9719]

Tapping needs no creativity and a good solo is creative. Listen to Guthrie Govan's solos, technique and creativity

[@ShortySeconds2Mars]

Arak Drakoniz Actually you can develop this level of technique in matter of weeks... I've been playing guitar for a long time (too lazy to remember when i started and calc). These are just some very basic scales, i think only1 scale to be honest but i skipped a lot in the vid, with distorted tapping that just looks and sounds complicated. After that he switches to a clean channel with heavy delay effect, also sounding complicated, but its a simple riff with the effect repeating it. These are just some fancy and easy stuff to make yourself look cool, or to get people into playing guitar when you say "i can teach you this in a month"

[@Arak_Drakoniz]

Zsolt Molnár He has technique, he has talent, but everything he played in this video is just stuff most metal guitarists can play. It really isn't all that creative. Also, tapping isn't complicated. I like metal and whatnot, but in some respects it's just a genre to impress people. I've been playing for about 6.5 years. I still can't solo worth a damn, I still don't know scales and I didn't start learning how to play chords (other than power chords) until just early last year. I'm just estimating that about 80% of what I've learned was from listening and self teaching. Personally I'm just influenced by simple stuff (i.e. Xasthur, Autumn's Grey Solace, Smashing Pumpkins).

[@ShortySeconds2Mars]

Arak Drakoniz He doesnt really show neither technique, nor talent here, i'm not saying he don't have any, just not showing it on this video, these are kind of the cheap tricks of playing the guitar. Also as a little side note, i'd like to point out that the amp is really underpowered, also it's recorded with relatively low quality so... Anyway, he's a cool kid, but he shouldn't waste his time doing these kind of stuff and thus praising him for this stuff isn't good imo. No offense, but if you can't do some solo, i don't mean Joe Satriani level, just some stuff that would go for an amateur band, i would call you a hobby guitarist. You basically just look up tabs for songs you like, am i right?

[@SchnelleKat]

Wow Can't believe this was 7 years ago..

[@larrythepython2005]

Did he even play any actual cords? All tap and effects? Big deal!

[@russinwestrant8950]

That's what I thought

[@not_relevant1353]

Solos generally don't use chords when done in the style of metal

[@LavenderTownWasTaken]

Playing chords in a metal solo can sound really cheesy, this is way more impressive

[@BPskiSchool]

show us your stuff or shut up.

[@Chrisandjack666]

he needs a haircut

[@skyswift-]

i thought it was a girl ರ_ರ

[@DarkEmoSophia]

A REAL MAN NEVER CUTS HIS HAIR

[@diegopalominoss]

NOT IF YOU'RE PLAYING ROCK/METAL, NO THANKS NO HAIRCUT!!

[@marcelinegh]

LONG HAIR FOR BOYS IS AWESOME !!!!

[@sammysanchez1417]

Rockers don't get haircuts your in the wrong place go back to your Bruno Mars shit

[@ericmathena]

Nice technique. No heart, no emotion, no music.

[@BPskiSchool]

And you? back your bs up at least

[@detroitrockcity22]

This is the video that introduced me to big sur moon. Love that song.

[@Jordan-rb28]

1-12-1-*pick scrape**-borning tapping-*--1-12-1-*pick scrape* so boring....

[@lojoha7214]

Awesome! Kids in the audience cheered for Eruption. I'm not that old. We're still here 42 year olds!!!!

[@slumdogjoe]

Whoaahh way to go... you say you have been playing guitar only 1.5 years and can play all that?? i couldnt even play 1/10th of that..... when i was 1.5 years into guitar. Kudos to you... may you become better and may your hard work pay off.

[@keithrushmore9809]

Wish people wouldn't be so critical. If all you are gonna do is critique someone's guitar work then critique yourself and enjoy what you hear. Don't like it? Don't listen. Thanks.

[@dickkickem4499]

The song at the end is Bucket Head Big Sur Moon

[@MrZincEdits]

The song at 2:45 is Sur moon - Buckethead

[@lennerleal726]

2020 and here i am!

[@sawdust6968]

hell he plays better than most player that have been doing it for 20 years,great job bro!

[@FenderJazzStudent]

Buckethead's "Colma"!!! Yes!! The kid got me with that!

[@jbmusic1118]

2:46 DUDE THATS THE BUCKETHEAD SOLO

[@metalskinstudios]

What a beautiful PRS....

[@paradiseangel72]

Man this brought me back to my 1989 Junior HS days there very talented rockers and you remind me of them ❤️

[@alexhancock6316]

You all are debating on whether he has only been playing for 1.5 years or not, while I'm sitting here wondering how the heck do you play this on guitar? I mean, this is insanely good. This dude's guitar playing status=Jesus

[@andrewwhitaker6819]

This guy still fucking killed it . how can you all hate ? Are you that jealous half the bands of nows generation don't have that much skille

[@gandalfthegrey9524]

A New Shredding Legend Has Been Born.

[@robertnorthrup9733]

My father was the musical one. He was gone by the time I was 2. I found a guitar in an attic when I was 9 and immediately started teaching myself. There was no one around me, but it was passed to me through my fathers gene pool. This is scientific fact. It isn't something people think, it is something people now know. You say anyone can learn it given enough time... what about the first person to build a guitar in the 14th century? Who taught him?

[@klipschman1]

48 years old now. Thanks for whatever that was after eddie.. I want to say how new that was but I am guessing I am just old and out of the loop. Thanks anyway I really enjoyed the second half of that.

[@SuperplayerThe]

All I can say just keep on rocking.

[@RydersCove]

this kid is much better than most of us. he sounds amazing.

[@quackerzsis99]

Guys, he's in HIGH SCHOOL! It's not like he's doing it pro, so you really shouldn't insult him for trying.

[@heylelpontifex2996]

Excellent music

[@robertgillespie7946]

What is this guy doing now? He looks like he's going to be a heartbreaker. This is from 2009 , where are you ?

[@Brice855464]

Damn dude. This is amazing. I'm not a guitarist but I'm a vocalist, if I got into a band with your kind of talent I might actually get somewhere. And this is coming 5 years after this video was posted, you're probably much better than you were then.

[@PRESTIGEOUSNESS]

that last thing.. the last few minutes impressed the fuck outta me and ive been playing well for 8 years

[@divot_dom16]

It's hard not to like this guy and as a guitar player myself that's really hard to do so awesome job for only 1.5 years of practice

[@italianjjs550]

big sur moon!!! lets gooo!!!

[@FabForceFour]

Palm muting, the most glorious sound of guitar.

[@toddfoster8705]

I should just tell you young people, that "Insane" implies mental illness.. This is just a talented young Dude doing it all on his GEET.

[@nashavi5738]

OUTSTANDING!!!

[@superzombie6024]

this kid is much more accomplished on guitar than most kids at this age and for the short amount of time he or she ( can't tell in the video because of hair) has been playing.

[@MrCrystalvalen]

Two thumbs up for the vest and purple guitar alone.

[@ferntheyoutuber9960]

Pretty cool. Better than most "Insane" guitar stuff on KZbin.

[@toxicwhorestar]

great work; you have a gift. stay excellent.

[@Lobototomyeyes]

best sweeping ive ever seen in my life

Nice work for the setting he was in. Obviously the point was to wow the audience in a short time and make an impression. He wasn't auditioning for a band. He played perfectly for the setting he was at. And I'm sure he will mature to play at other settings as needed as he grows with his technique and style. I mean really, you could be a hater, but honestly, what did he do that was 'Wrong" or Incorrect"? The answer is nothing. It may not be what you want to hear, but it's skilled, difficult, accomplished and I don't know what else.
