I'm really proud of the fact that you put India on the metal scene @Anubhav_Silas... I can't play guitar anymore after I broke my left arm but I'm a metal head & I sing death metal...

Wth this is epic!!! This is collab 5, just need to edit you in there! I’m blown away man, I love how unique everyone is, with their own flavor sneaking in, while displaying respect for the guitar and metal. Trips me out how some guitarists didn’t do constant shredding, but still had such a heavy impact in their sound from their soul. I cannot wait to see who gets to land this one Jared! 💪🏽😤

Congrats to everyone who made it in! You guys all slayed this backing track perfectly. Loving these solos. Now to get practicing for next year 😂😅

Tramaine Jonathan is World Class. He deserves to be in the video. That solo was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Your solo was awesome brother!

Thank you, I appreciate it 😁

[@Lyrici17]

There's nothing quite like 36 minutes of straight guitar soloing!!.....So many great entries (like all of them). My top 3 favorite were probably: Aizakk Riel Clores, Mikel Lasalle, and Tuvshin Music.... Thanks!

[@brittanyhale5277]

So cool to see everyone who made it! Everyone did so amazing on this it must have been crazy hard to even narrow it down to 50!

10:58 Hugo Cirbian is definitely going places if he hasnt already. So many amazing guitarists here but his blended so well with the back track imo

[@tylerrose1653]

If you told me this entire collab was just John 5 in different disguises, I wouldn't have questioned it.

[@cameronneal4]

I feel like this is exactly what the real shred collab will sound like. These guys are top notch!

[@ireliaismyheroine5366]

My top 3 Nr 1 !! Tuvshin Music !! Nr 2 Spiro Dussias (that "careless whisper" lick lol) Nr 3 Syndrone

[@bengranillo1383]

I just love all the unique styles. You’re not a real musician unless you find your style. It’s the soul. Good job everyone. Almost everyone gave me goosebumps and made me close my eyes and float away.

[@bill74ish]

Styles?? Dude most of these players sound the same. Originality is been lost

[@gmzfabianpy]

@@bill74ish Agree 100%

[@derbylied9553]

Djent of the opposite tuning needs to be a thing(Chon technically did it first however Steveterreberry practiced a demonstration of what Djent will have sounded like in the 90s since Djent tuning seems to be tuned down by distortions over the passing years to being lower).

[@mesetaplays]

Watching this again and Spiro’s control over his pick is absolutely BONKERS

[@tubesoupio]

What time does he play?

[@thefourthwritedjentleman3643]

@@tubesoupio 30:03 - Yeah his picking is seriously ridiculous - almost pathetic how easy he makes that look - jaw droppingly good They all are to be fair in different ways - but I do love a good right hand when I see one - no homo LOL

[@Viper-dz2kw]

Cool to see someone finally actually use the fretless guitar to its potential, definitely a standout moment
