[@spaceagejunkie]

I could be wrong, but I feel like this guy gets nowhere the attention he deserves. An absolute guitar God🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@FortinAmps]

Per is a genius!

[@seandaniell9380]

unlike some of the people calling out keys

[@12breacher82]

I think that was the first official demo of his new Strandberg too! I am glad I waited with holiday gear purchases until after NAMM. THAT guitar, but which Fortin Amp 🤔🤔🤔???

[@sprinkle_some_crack_on_em8279]

Love Per so much

[@DeanLamb]

Lol of course the first suggestion is my wife Claire talking about Dorian sharp 4 again...

[@andrewdow6623]

LMFAO The tech is strong with your wife

[@nikhilt9671]

I heard her voice and I was wondering if it was Claire or not

[@FortinAmps]

She can't help being a badass. :D

[@ScarGuitar]

She is wise beyond her years

[@esaedvik]

Wait what the hell is this wizardry...Just watching your videos for the first time and had this video open in a tab from like an hour ago, went back to it and noticed this comment. Christ what a coincidence :D

[@deathmetalsl]

Maybe this world is not good enough for a Per Nilsson solo album.

[@damonstewart70]

We couldn't handle it

[@troysmithfr]

We don't deserve it lol

[@brettemurphy]

Or another Scar Symmetry album **coughs**

[@omramoryth]

Scar Symmetry is basically his solo albums 😅

[@12breacher82]

WTF I can listen to Per play all day. One of the best of our time.

[@FortinAmps]

100% agreed. We are simple men, Per plays, we shut up and take notes. One of the greatest for sure!

[@danielvelkovski3156]

If he played slower maybe his frets wouldn’t melt

[@enciksyah3923]

Lol

[@Ottophil]

Daniel Velkovski i remembe when frets werent wiggled or slanted. They were straight and we liked it

[@sentientcardboarddumpster7900]

@@Ottophil ok boomer. Wanna tell us about your lute then?

[@Ottophil]

Being Alex no, i don’t respond to people who ok boomer me, sorry but thats how us “boomers” roll, go play some jdent on a slanted fret shaped like british smiles

[@larrisliew9078]

@@Ottophil "i don’t respond to people who ok boomer me" responds anyway, lol ok boomer

[@metalheadblues]

Per and Wes Hauch are probably the most underrated guitarist ever.

[@RadityoPramAdi]

Wes is incredible! I think he is in Fortin booth too..

[@juanrodm6406]

Teemu Mantysaari and Jari Maempaa are

[@mostresticator5]

rick graham

[@rbnh9827]

Mathias Eklundh my friends !!

[@jonjones3958]

They're highly rated by many. They're under appreciated.

[@metalheadmaynard2684]

I love watching him play. theres a reason he been playing in Meshuggah

[@wheelsdeal]

Dude is so good he bent all the frets.

[@MrDonc78]

Chopin's Funeral March for the Dm lol definitely the perfect choice for the saddest key

[@MrDonc78]

[@damonstewart70]

Notice the gain REACTS to his picking and it's PUNCHY

[@ConnorHammond]

It really is stunning.

[@wheresallthezombies]

Per Nilsson is such a badass. I didn’t find out about him till he was on coffee with Ola but damn he’s awesome.

[@MustakimAlMahdi]

Per Nilsson and Wes Hauch are Gods, I introduce people to their music whenever I get the chance, I'm doing God's work.

[@FortinAmps]

That you are!

[@RedSheap]

Watched Per perform with Meshuggah at 70k of metal. He’s the real deal.

[@cristianbustamante8468]

This Is an a Real ídol......... An a real musician ...... Cheers from Chile 🇨🇱

[@mikedervos5974]

that was freaking amazing!!!

[@DannyBeardsley]

One of the greats! Love this guy! 🙏

[@harrymanbach]

We need a Swedish G3 with Pers Nilsson,Matthias Ia Eklund and Fredrik Thordendal. Maybe Yngwie shows up for a finale. Put Dick Lovgren on bass and maybe Thomas Haake or Morgen Agren on drums. I'd die a happy man.

[@thagirion9761]

Morgen is a phenomenal drummer!

[@gripphillips]

Such an awesome musician..

[@MTorresProductions]

Soooooo so clean!

[@jameswyre6480]

Epic fun with the incomparable Per and True Temperament.

[@cacabarrosgtr]

You guys are making some great videos, I'm so in love with those amps! Keep rocking \o/

[@SlinkyT82]

That's awesome! And to play that clean off the cuff. 🔥😱

[@gripphillips]

Per is my favorite guitar player period

[@daffyduck7620]

This is fucking awesome, starting with that guitar and ending with Per playing.

[@pauloesterle9823]

Such an amazing guitar player

[@riffinpeace6667]

[@dripwire]

this guy is on fire!great tone,awesome playing!

[@RobinErhage]

Amazing

[@user-ne8hk8nj2d]

Fckng love Per's style since the second Scar Symmetry album, felt in love with his solos on their Singularity album. btw never noticed that he uses right hand hybrid picking technique

[@johnhahn1877]

Such great command! That was fun

[@rousimikki]

Per is out of this world

[@rachitbhengra4298]

Per Nilsson.. The GOD among us..!

[@digijams]

Congrats Mike on some great amps, you just keep rolling out spectacular designs. Hope all is well, thinking of ordering the toaster to add to my Cali you made me 11-12 years ago.

[@bornindissonance]

BEAST

[@arififtianto8465]

Per : You ? Audience : Phrygian B Per : thats my breakfast

[@MichelOliveiraOfficial]

Per Nilsson is life

[@damonstewart70]

I just subscribe to u channel

[@justintavares9730]

I become convinced more and more, by the playing and beard, that Per = god

[@JackRosei]

OMG, still so cool!!!

[@jmeezle]

Jocke in the background looking like a proud Swedish father.

[@jonsouth9327]

Him legend

[@kajpaananen5082]

Uuh man -thats the "mind machine" truly! I was not even able to figure the related major key before he already started...

[@adammotter7430]

My favorite guitarist of all time. He is a god.

[@bigdaddynasty69]

god damn per is an improv master

[@craigharrison5406]

This guy's legato might be the best I've ever seen. Allan Holdsworth would be proud.

[@ajb-drums]

The master

[@wesew]

IMPRESIONANTE

[@miyavizim]

A major!

[@mijit.859]

Nice !! 👍🏻👍🏻

[@damonstewart70]

So fluid!!! And the tone is beautiful but has a MENACING edge to it

[@BrianBower]

God of Guitarrr!

[@timokomulainen]

Whoa. That guitar is beautiful, almost an equal of his playing! :O

[@mikegallagher2732]

@ 5:56 mark ...WTF ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!????!!!!!!! PER YOU ARE TRULY AMAZING... I've been a scar symmetry fan forever because of you !!!!

[@mikegladstone8834]

I love the dude asking Per to play a Nevermore song and he goes "that's not a scale" LOL

[@jonborrmann3124]

The mildest wildman..🤘

[@hjalmarwidmark5906]

HERR NILSSON RULES

[@ibzs540]

Per is such a beast!

[@KarrosJ]

The lead from Oceans, by The Absence, still kills me.

[@mdpmz6486]

this is the moment i realize need to start learn some scales after many years of blind playing when i get my kiesel next year :o

[@higler.]

He doesn't just play the guitar... he's become one with it. This is unreal!

[@FortinAmps]

Indeed!

[@RadityoPramAdi]

You should watch his interview with Ola Englund. His relationship with guitar is incredible!

[@SYMPHONYOFHEAVENOfficial]

The man is a genius

[@ReXIX2]

He makes me feel dumb, but in a good way! :) Amazing playing Per!

[@brbqsauce]

😍

[@adonisx-.-.790]

Damm d minor sounded soo badass!

[@maeguk1]

I managed to make an interview with Per in 2007. Back then he didn't sport this brutal ass beard :D

[@her0de84]

Seen this dude with Scar Symmetry in Austin,Tx at the Dirty Dog bar...absolutely mind blowing...seen Devin Townsend in the same place shortly after...fyi this place is !@#$ing small...he was using the line 6 helix rack for the show I seen..

[@EVEROSFP1]

With all respect in this video Per looks like Billy Gibbons' high tech brother

[@johnturner4086]

Holy shitballs .......that’s epic

[@SaberToothGary]

Um... uh... gaht'DAYUM!!!!

[@alejandrososa1534]

0:41 I hope someday that Per teach us that kind of licks !!!

[@illlanoize23]

Alejandro Sosa just quick half step slides to pull offs

[@spike32887]

I have to believe that anyone that gave this a thumbs down stumbled on this video by accident and don't have a musical bone in their body!

[@danielo.m.288]

Why this amazing guitar and the other singularities have no tremolo bar?

[@zombiemachinery4868]

The frets are fucked up after all that scale binge.

[@kisstagals]

Taking challenge from audience randomly is something never thought about it nor will any professional musician would be comfortable ..

[@ericvalverderosado2046]

“Dorian Sharp 4” sounds more like a military operation name lol xd

[@princenothingofficial]

Can anyone tell me why his frets look like that? Super interesting! What is the purpose of the frets being like that?

[@bds_mguydasic9293]

as being a 16 year old the learning the dorian sharp 4 is gonna be nice

[@dipensharmayayo7606]

Want tab for all of those dream lines...

Ugh I gotta practice my scales

[@shecter7927]

one new scar symmetry album pls

[@AshfaqHossainShawonBD]

How is no one talking about him in every mag, video, lesson series!!??? So many overrated flashy players, he has PERFECT tone control and dear lord the licks.

One of the greatest guitarist of all time! can anyone tell me the name of the origninal piece he played at 2:50?? I want to learn it too. Thanks

Can I like a video twice?

[@aryinc]

the amp sounds awesome. like it needs no drive pedal

[@Cestariarts]

People aren't really creative with the scale request, the first one was the best. Whole and half tone, mixolydian b6, omg there are so many interesting stuff

[@illlanoize23]

Tabs? I’m jk lol. good call by the guy who said G because pers instructional dvd does a lot in it and I now practice in G major exclusively after seeing it years ago. Not a big Phrygian fan though. Neumenon’s in his dvd too but tbh he probably forgot how to play it haha he hasn’t been playing much since he just had his son

[@Starch1b2c3d4a]

Sounds like me doodling

[@thurizaz]

Love it but he changed his sound.. is it because of new pickups or diffrent amp? Much sharper sound now. I like his old sound way better.

[@illlanoize23]

thurizaz playing on fortins new amp he used to use digital stuff with ss but meshuggah uses real amps and that’s what he’s been on lately

[@ScarGuitar]

@@illlanoize23 Meshuggah uses Axe-fx only on tour, Scar Symmetry tours with Line6 HX Stomps... I do however LOVE playing great, real amps such as Fortin's :)

No dislikes. I guess no bass players around :P

Whats with the melting frets?

True temperament frets. More accurate intonation on all the frets.

Sounds like a normal amp to me
