THIS Is What I LEARNED from Mateus Asato

[@RossCampbellGuitarist]

That intro was amazing dude.

[@timpierceguitar]

Ross thanks so much!

[@mhsandifer]

thanks for visiting our planet once again Tim.

[@timpierceguitar]

Any time!

[@nedim_guitar]

It's good to hear a pro say that someone else's playing is out of his (or her) technical reach. Asato is great at what he does, he's got a personal and very expressive... expression. I'll never come even close, but I have been using some of those short and fast slides that I've seen him do. If you can borrow from anyone, just do it.

[@r0bophonic]

THIS is what I LEARNED from Tim Pierce 0:47 Kids, take note. Tim is confident and secure enough in his own self that he is not afraid to be vulnerable. What makes Tim a fantastic musician, session player and teacher is his lack of ego. He’s always in the moment, in service to the song and to others. This is how to live. Thank you Tim!

[@christerdehlin8866]

I love how humble you are even though your playing is second to none. Beautiful execution!

[@13thAMG]

Tim, most of us are still on the lifelong journey of learning from Tim Pierce, so you don't need to defer to Mateus - amazing that he is - because you, sir are one of the greatest of our time and my generation! And one of the most humble I know. THAT makes you even greater. J.

[@timpierceguitar]

Wow, thank you!

[@LeMans512]

Tim, you’re one of a few truly amazing guitarists. Your playing in the opening of this video is the best that I’ve heard you do. Beautiful

[@Grant_Ferstat]

Love the recognition of the talents of other players Tim. Your enthusiasm and sheer joy while decoding things for us mere mortals is always a takeaway for me.

[@shlebmo]

You’re an incredible guitarist. His chord lead movements are very unique and epic

[@PGU13BHEI]

Thank you for having him on your show to start with. That second double stop riff is really nice.

[@motorbikeray]

Your June 2, 2022 interview on Rick Beato's channel brought me here. 👍 Great interview!

[@michaelhayes2794]

I mostly like hearing your playing. Rick Beato had a nice interview with this cat.

[@andystagger2906]

You’re the freaking best Tim! You’re one of my favorite players I’ve learned a lot from your channel… which I’m addicted to 😜🤣😂 keep those videos coming! Mateos Asato is amazing by the way… I’ve been playing and performing for 30 years his stuff is unbelievable and untouchable.. but I love to watch him play! Thank you for awesome content!❤️👍

[@stratbluesman]

You're a great guitar player with out having to play like Mateus !

[@crumpred805]

Tim, I admire your candor, not to mention your ability. You could dedicate an entire show on playing what one can play within their current ability & taste. With all of the skill sets we need as guitarists I wouldn't expect the young Jimi Hendrix to play classical guitar, although, I wouldn't have put it past an older Hendrix (he was always learning). Great episode, Cheers!

[@tawpgk]

I knew of Mateus the guitarist from Rick Beato's Channel, where i also learned of Tim's Channel. All sturdy branches on The Beato Learning Tree of which there are many. I knew of Mateus the wine from the early '70s when my Uncle brought it to Thanksgiving dinner. 😁

[@vitaliistep]

Nice one! Thank you, Tim.

[@timpierceguitar]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@andrewboyd2023]

Tim, you’ve given some of us a fighting chance to do what Matteo does, thank you. You have the best guitar channel on the tube.

[@ssdelko]

I like the second riff at the slower tempo.

[@wayneford1981]

I agree .Some players play too fast and the melody is lost.

[@Igoya972]

Amazing! 👏 One of my favs of M. Asato is "Bluesy Wednesday". When I heard that... ❤️ #1️ 👀 & 👂

[@CatRobotTechnologies]

So good!! Tim, you are the man!!!

[@timpierceguitar]

Thanks so much!

[@Qstick333]

I try to take something from each influence, usually a feel or sense of melody and hope it pans out into something that might be enjoyable. Can;'t wait to watch this video.

[@sixslinger9951]

for someone who came up with and played one of the most iconic solos from the 80s. (Bon Jovi's runaway) .... you are a very humble man. Yes , I learn from many players but you are definitely one of the best out there in your own right!

[@SinnGread]

you are both wonderful. thank you for all your insight and guitar wisdom

[@CarlKennedyMusic]

Another great and valuable nugget from Tim! I may prefer Tim’s slightly slower version. Mixed with Tim’s own great voicings I hear something more appealing to my ear.

[@Vestu]

Glad I found you through Rick Beato's video. GREAT STUFF MAN! The gear, the sounds, the skill, the enthusiasm, the musicality. Wow!

[@daleturner]

BROODLE!!!! 🤘❤🤘

[@beyondinfinity3876]

you are amazing!🙏🙏

[@shawn13mertle13]

That pedal looks pretty cool. Sure beats the old days of play the cassette and rewinding.

[@khund03]

Brilliant Stuff Mr. Tim!!!!

[@fluxerflixer1]

You always teach me something! Fantastic channel!

[@DrJeebles]

That is a very cool pedal. Great video, as always, Tim.

[@MichaelAntus]

Much respect Tim...

[@kurtis4572]

who rang the bell for this video!? Love Mateus. Buddy Rich said the best thieves are the ones that don't stealing. Vinnie said once hip always hip. Love the videos Tim! I'm a drummer and can't get enough of your content.

[@lexrichardson7820]

Well that’s one of the coolest pedal ever!

[@sgt.grinch3299]

I would love to see you discuss riffs from Steve Rothery from Marillion. He is outstanding and very rhythmic.

[@RonZabrocki]

Love this! My mantra is isolate and repeat. Work on what you can and build on that. Mateus is certainly a monster, but so are you! Enjoy the day! Great lesson here as always!

[@andrewnicon]

I've always thought Matteo has some really cool doublestops. Super melodic stuff.

[@1971stratocaster]

Love this Tim!

[@rogerkiethsyd]

Very cool Tim. Got me a day off today. Thanks man.

[@fourplayrockband1050]

Oh oh oh. The riff I really like is yours at 0:12-0:14. You never cease to amaze me! Btw…red California poppies 2:58. Good for your yard in a small spot. 😂

[@sgt.grinch3299]

Thanks for the excellent video.

[@seanstone8412]

You got some Hendrix in your Asato :) Like you said, sometimes things just becomes part of the vocabulary.

[@bluematrix5001]

Tim Musicality and chops are amazing!

[@PooNinja]

Just watching him play is a joy in and of itself 👏🏽👏🏽🙏🏽

[@stickman55100]

Yes, I’d settle for Tim’s brilliant and expansive vocabulary and flawless technique!

[@tomyossarian7681]

It takes a certain kind of man to say "I can't do that". Love you, brother. I recently noticed - if Wikipedia is not wrong, lol - you played the guitar parts on Just Around The Corner by Cock Robin. Seems kind of strange song to me, don't know why, but wonderful and favorite of mine. Anything to share about contributing to that song/album?

[@cameroncrawford2879]

Love the way you play, Tim!!

[@rhythmsaint73]

Wonderful Tim love it all man

[@GlaucoAlves]

Tim, you’re a total legend , Sir!

[@kennethsease6761]

What an ingenius invention. Yea tim! Thanks

[@michaelstorms47]

"Just when you think you can play guitar, look who shows up" Tim Pierce talking about Mateus on Rick Beato's ig post today. Thank you for this lesson Mr. Pierce! 🤟😎🤟

[@TheFeelButton]

All is possible with practice! Sounding good Tim!!

[@eddieholmes3236]

Great tips Tim, thanks! I'm looking forward to the Tim Pierce pedal that automatically makes me play as well as he does.

[@johnhendricks8140]

That Vidami blue pedal is pretty cool.

[@roderickgful]

In the heat of the moment I’m sure you can increase you speed on that last riff

[@bluesboyst]

Wow Tim... unbelievable....

[@edryba4867]

Wow! Mateus is so good, he’s SCARY!

[@rumpoleonthehilloldchap]

Tim check out max ostro, matteo mancuso and manuel gardner fernandes. Great talented young guitar player's. The 4 m's the future.

[@nekkon1989]

It is not impossible to play like Mateus. However, the world does not need another one, there is already one Mateus. But there is definitely something to drawing inspiration from other guitar players!

[@toploadtele]

I've owned the original Vidami since it was first released..... what a great tool. It must be about time to upgrade to the new Bluetooth model!

[@nightwishlover8913]

Mateus is a monster!!

[@amonster8mymother]

I would say keep practising some day you'll get there. 😁

[@JamesWalshBristolKids]

Music is alive when played on Guitar

[@williamphillips1852]

I don’t care about playing like Matteo’s , I want to play like Tim Pierce. lol I know you can learn a little something from everyone but you, Tom Bukovac and Guthrie Trappe give me enough to work on.

[@djbny2la]

Funny, my thoughts exactly. I once said that of all the musicians I know (With the possible exception of Peter Frampton, (Maybe)) I would most like to sound like Tim.

[@espana2172]

I agree

[@ydyd4410]

Tim pierce >> matteós

[@johnthursfield3056]

You're missing what makes Tim good, he hears something he likes and wants to understand it wherever it comes from and incorporate it into his playing. I love Guthrie, Tom and Jack Ruch's playing and I'm sure they all take stuff from multiple sources, it's how you use it so that it becomes yours.

[@kendalljamesmusic]

Attainable- I try to explain this concept to students constantly. “Dude- you can’t play the solo to Hotel California, if you can’t play a Bm chord!”

[@hiramserna5035]

YAY!!!

[@djwarren5081]

Learn something new every day.

[@CentaurusRelax314]

Just from that intro: That level of knowledge and 'muscle memory' are impossibilities for me. Just not going to happen. I find it astounding. And, honestly, i think Tim played it better. There's an 'easy poetry' in it.

[@limpindug]

Great advice Tim, I learned how to build a fire with guitars from the young fella😂😂 his hybrid picking is lightning. Thanks for your time and tips. 👍🥃Respect to you mate.

[@MarceloMallmannDias]

Awesome! Check Lari Basilio too.

[@stcoto5660]

Always amazing to watch and listen to you ❤️

[@huuss]

Mateus is the Hendrix of this 2010s and 2020s. He should be the Modern Hendrix 🎸🎸🤘🤘🎸🎸🤘🤘🎹🎹

[@vishnualcyone9170]

Tim Pierce - "That's the way Me - "This is the way"

[@gabrielhenriqueguitar]

Dois gigantes ❤️

[@xylin66]

Check out Eric Woolard 'Chicken Pickin' Shred' on his YT channel to see some amazing double stops

[@jimshomestudio]

For comparison, let’s say for example a Drummer is playing a groove and he’s very good so he plays 3X as many hits. Because he is SO GOOD, he can bisect time and deliver a lot more hits. Is that better? He’s REALLY good. But is that what I want? Not precisely. What I want is the original groove with nuances and heartfelt pauses. Subtle bursts of energy. When an auctioneer is speaking rapidly, does that help me understand? I can’t make out half of what he’s saying, until he slows down. If I give my time to music, there’s no race. If I feel like I’m being delivered too much information in too short of time, it doesn’t help. I can only digest so much at once, so might as well make those words count. ❤️

[@seanemmettfullerton]

Thanks Tim! Ha! stay curious, friends! Learn something new every day. Then, it'll actually feel weird if we're NOT stretching to meet a new challenge :) Rock on, Tim!

[@charliemartin576]

im a jimmy page ace frehley slop player . stub fingers lol wish i could play like that

[@bluwng]

It’s very technical and creative but nothing I would want to sit down and listen to.

[@galanonim9226]

I do prefer your style of playing Tim, so much more at whatever speed...

[@stinkypinky8795]

internet love brother tim

[@TavaresProject]

I can't find that model on the floyd rose site?

[@dcdno_one2393]

What is it about Floyd Rose tremolos that make every guitar sound like a Strat? It's not a bad thing - just a thing.

[@Iskaral_Pust]

if Tim Pierce has trouble with it, what hope do I have? Mateus should be studied by science. He's the most gifted and interesting player stylistically on the planet right now, imo.

[@secularZoo]

Give Tim an hour to practice and he'll have the 2nd riff at full speed!!!🎸

[@YuxinZhou13]

1:16

[@peterkelly8357]

Anyone know if the Vidami blue pedal is available in the UK?

[@basiltiffani8850]

MA is amazing. The only thing that bothers me a bit about his playing is the intonation often sounds a bit off to me (I think b/c of the sliding chords, bar use, etc). Maybe it's not, but sounds that way to my ears that no one cares about.

[@roderickgful]

Yeah, you should get an endorsement from vidami like Andy! You have many more subscribers 🤷‍♂️

[@rickc2102]

These youngins and their fast-twitch muscles, I'll just have to play it at 75% and give it my slow-twitch expressiveness.

[@amghoon9927]

What brand guitar is that?

[@x3a3x3]

It’s a Floyd Rose guitar. They came out a few years ago but I haven’t seen many people using them

[@patrickkorsnick6629]

@@x3a3x3 thank you

[@anthonyschultz6801]

Hopefully I'll be as good as Tim someday!!!! 💥♥️💯🤘

[@SteveSchuffert]

First off, love ya Tim. Of course… But to my ears and soul these days so many notes are often saying less and emoting less in music. When we look back in most cases the solos that made rock classics what they are tend to be sparse quite often with the emphasis put on emotion and feeling. And most important always…the song.

[@philippehendrickx1109]

Exactly how I feel about it.

[@jstnxprsn]

Mateus is another technician, who did little to impress me. Besides, I'm too busy trying to pick up Tim Pierce influence in my style (which has come from hundreds of players) esp. those melodic double stops.

[@cyrnoz1803]

Actually if you dig in mateus' playing you will find very melodic compositions and great double stop runs.

[@julienolen9028]

What kind of guitar is that?

[@julienolen9028]

I don’t recognize that headstock. Anyone know what it is?

[@musicmann1967]

I'd much rather play like Tim. As freakishly good as Mateus is, his playing doesn't speak to me, it only impresses me. It's wild to watch.

[@kjellbratt6301]

sounds like a hawai guitar

[@garyshepherd9226]

That's you with Beth Hart on Black Dog isn't it?

[@liecht]

Asato,Govan,Ostro and many more supervirtuosistic bedroom players are nothing but highly neurotic musicians with deep personality disorders wich prevents them from having a genuine humane sense of what is emotionally right in music expression.There is where Tim Pierce excels,his humanity and his lack of ego makes him a reliable partner to achieve musical success.
