Marco Sfogli & Ibanez RG870QMZ-BI - Still Hurts

[@swarnabd202]

such an underrated guitarist! he must be one of the best guitarists around! :)

[@dfifty2]

underrated ??? He IS one of the best guitarists :)

[@shehrankazi4891]

Swarnabh Kashyap you are right bro!..he is a much better guitarist than many famous guitarists but still no body takes his name!!...

[@yogengrg7690]

Dude he is not underated at all. He is in the major league now.

[@mladenkorunoski]

Swarnabh Kashyap If not, the best...

[@MudTide1993]

+Yogen Grg public eye still has no clue he is. try to tell everyone that he's James LaBrie's guitarist and then be prepared to follow up with an explanation on who dream theater is lol

[@AlexisRoucourt]

One of the best pieces of solo/instrumental music ever, in my opinion

[@deus_radneck]

I've been playing for almost 20 years and I don't have a prayer in the world to ever be able to play like this.

[@junito1957]

15 TO 30 MINITE A DAY ON THE GUITAR IN A YEAR YOU WILL

[@vespass225]

@@junito1957 No, there is no guarantee at all for that. Loads of people have put hours a day , day after day, in several years, without even approaching this level.

[@dinghenryst]

Each guitarist has unique abilities, others are better at some things more than others and it does not mean that they are bad, but that everyone plays, as their ability allows, once you understand this, you stop getting frustrated by listening to others. "better than you" 😉

[@fizual]

Just because you can’t play it doesn’t mean it’s good

[@TreyJonesMusic]

Most gifted all around lead rock player on Earth IMO. When taking everything into account...feel, speed, accuracy, ability to compose memorable melodies, phrasing. He's honestly just the best in this kind of melodic shredding rock category, whatever you'd like to call it. Of course he isn't who he is without Petrucci, Satch, Timmons, etc...but man he just has it all. It's unreal.

[@DanielVerberne]

Great comment and I think you do well to explain Marco's origin in other players. Agreed, he's right up there.

[@RubberStig]

I agree entirely - I know you can hear the influences you mentioned above (all of which I like - they're influential for good reasons!), but he also adds his own style, and like you also said his melodies are phenomenal, phrasing peerless, and actual chops awesome. I find watching him difficult as his technique does not appear graceful - but let there be no doubt as to it's effectiveness! Just amazing - one of the best all round guitarists on the planet.

[@antomurro6076]

Grande Marco d'altronde da due genitori cosi cosa poteva venirne fuori😘

[@lecorsaire2283]

Yeah I agree! This is the sort of style I love. Sometimes go for such an abstract sound that they forget about being melodic.

[@stoofbuis]

and Shawn lane.....

[@vulfkachnanajza4483]

My goosebumps starts at 3:58 everytime. Very emotional.

[@vespass225]

Indeed, fantastic, euphoric !

[@HeartOfMetalx11]

he speaks with the guitar thats for sure.

[@DanielVerberne]

Marco is so lyrical and soulful. His playing epitomizes 'tasty' for me.

[@Henry-rf2lj]

I've listened to this thousands of times and still have no idea on how to compose these kind of beautiful phrases and riffs. Some of the best phrasing and feel I've seen.

[@vespass225]

Surely agree. Painfully beatiful harmony and passages, and a wish to be able to ackomplish something like it yourself, but no.....

[@hamdanihamid5951]

Can't believe an amazing guitarist like him so underrated

[@gavynplourde1061]

I live for moments like 4:00. Finding a guitarist you have yet to hear, and its just beautiful.

[@QuibusLicet]

Gavyn Plourde Same here. And I got goosebumps from that part too.

[@Gattobuono]

+Gavyn Plourde Agreed, stunning stuff!

[@Jacoby2309]

Also my favorite Part I love it!!!

[@Picurs]

2 weeks ago my little 2 yo cat, my little fur ball of love, died because of complications with her FeLV. Yeah, it still hurts... a lot. Music always helps us let these feelings flow. Thanks for the 2 years I got to spend with you, Christie! It wasn't long, but it was special, it was awesome, you're awesome and will forever keep on being awesome in my heart! I'll always love you!

[@NOS1958]

Talento italiano impressionante!!! Bravo!!!

[@AkiraSpectrum]

one of the best guitarists around. his lead work is VERY musical and melodic.

[@davegrebkiv]

So far 115 people are either deaf or just mean. This is as good as guitar playing gets! How can anyone dislike this?

[@massimilianopicciano3817]

Petrucciano..? Satrianiano..? Dite cio che volete. Perche ognuno si ispira ad un genere. Ma questo è Marco Sfogli. Uno dei piu grandi e genuini talenti della chitarra di oggi. Per me è un grandissimo!

[@robyfughy8111]

Il Solidus no il migliore è Richard benson con lui ci si SPAVENTA 🤣🤣🤣

[@michelegrassi4385]

E' il mio chitarrista italiano preferito ! un fenomeno tecnicamente e con un gusto e una capacità compositiva senza confini !!!

[@JohnDoe-cl7sp]

this guy is one of the best guitar players out there in his genre .love his sound rock on Marco

[@ericjenkins8831]

I'd say that as far as the guitar actually goes, his take on it has more musical sounds, I can think about his stuff as a listener and a guitar player in the way I prefer

[@erikholvik6697]

A song with no flaws. Perfection!

[@the3xtr3mist]

It's amazing how the song reaches some kind of climax at around 03:15 solely by chords. That's some great stuff on composing and phrasing, which is what music is all about.

[@light7224]

it's an honor to listen your majestic masterpiece. I'm so happy that you exist.

[@Pixel.Dystopia]

Una di quelle traccie che vanno ascoltate almeno una volta ogni 10 giorni ❤️ unico!

Just found out about this guy from Spotify. Definitely soaking up everything I can from him from now on! Truly amazing phrasing, emotion, and that TONE!!!!

Si è uno splendore, lui e come suona.

[@veilofreality]

Grande Marco Sfogli e grazie per le chitarre sulla cover del mitico Daitarn!

[@ghostsOfWar13]

This is one of the most emotional instrumentals in my opinion and you can truly feel the pain in the story that is being told. Amazing execution and interpretation!

[@Chritter]

One of the 2 guitar instrumentals that have caused me to shed a tear in 13yrs of playing. You're a genuine artist, Marco.

[@ayandey137]

Whats the other one?

[@noobasaurusrex9608]

Yeah come on guy, it's been 4 years...

[@krispynachos9980]

God damn it's like Petrucci and Satriani gave birth to Sfogli! Italians are gods at guitar!

[@superlucab88]

look something of Francesco Fareri (only technique)...

[@r.d.6565]

It must be genetics when it comes to art and food, Italians dominate almost naturally. It's amazing.

Italians are the very best melodic Solo Player!!!...Satriani, Vai, di Meola, Gambale and Petrucci (italian roots), Mancuso and many more... and of course Marco Sfogli !

[@TheHealrod]

[@ericjenkins8831]

musical content rarely sounds so lush. he suggests every harmonic interval like it's a big responsibility, anguish n envy.

[@thomaskelvin3545]

Bravissimo Maestro 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@КостянтинВосковцов]

great!!! real flying fingers)))) it`s super melodic and a great source of inspiration!!!!

[@mesabman]

If you want to see some of the most difficult technical world-class playing, watch the video from 4:00-4:25--that's some serious string-skipping, alternate picking, and arpeggio sweeps that take some serious talent and practice. Marco could easily stand on stage with the best guitarists in the world.

[@davidderoux7552]

That part remainds me of John Petrucci!

[@MicheleFano]

Bravissimo Marco, orgoglio italiano!

[@jean-pierrezito1716]

The best in mélodies (le meilleur pour les mélodies à la guitare)

[@roujomb1]

This guy is definately one of the very best songwriters of this decade (at least my Favorite) and he's a master guitar player 😍

[@jelleepit]

Marco never losing sight of melody, while playing some really challenging phrases he still keeps an eye on melodic form. So many other just shred endless techniques and you've forgotten the tube in 2 minutes, but like this piece, that hook is still ringing as I write this. He does have the Satch touch in that respect. I personally think he is the best in his field and will be for a while.

[@veilofreality]

So in the end, Marco or Satch?

[@jelleepit]

Satch. Because for whatever reason his playing reaches parts of me no others can. A single note can put a chill up my spine. He's had me since I first head flying in a blue dream. But Marco is close. @@veilofreality

[@guido6303]

grazie ar ca......se costa 3 volte il multiampl ci sarà un motivo....credo che essendo endorser Marco sia vincolato ad usare multiampl dv ed ibanez rg....ma sono convinto che, di nascosto, lui suoni Mesa ed Music Man....che sia il clone meglio riuscito di Petrucci non ci sono dubbi....tant'è che non a casa suono con Labrie.....ciaoo
