A prodigy and a virtuoso but with less musicality concerning his lick skills. Matteo Mancuso is another level, I think, on the way of Guthrie Govan.

[@thatsamazin-]

I discovered Matteo and watched videos for maybe a week. I discovered Max shortly after and have not stopped listening to him after 2 months. Matteo might “technically” be better but he’s not the one I find most interesting to my ears. I definitely never seen a guitarist “better” than Matteo. He’s just not in my top 5 of guitarists I actually want to listen to. Max is in my top 5 and actually #1 at the moment.

[@smudge1619]

​@CharcoalPencilPusher You must not play guitar or you'd understand there are literally not enough hours in the day for the vast majority of guitar players who have ever lived to even get half as good as Max. I have been playing for twice as Max is old and I have THOUSANDS of more hours of practice than he does, and I would never get that good even if I practiced another 100 years. You are sorely missing an element of talent and a natural gift for music which cannot be taught. What comes naturally to Max, and has, so early on, would take others far longer to grasp let alone duplicate, if they would even come up with the crazy phrasing and ideas in the first place. When your hands can do anything your brain wants them to, you reach a certa level (mastery). To get past that, you need to have a creativity which far surpasses your peers and Max has that in spades. He can already play anything that has ever been played, its WHAT he plays now, now HOW, that sets him apart.

I'm pretty sure he has some form of synasthesia. Watch his face when he plays some harder parts, its like he can see the colors of the music right in front of him. Phenomenal ability to have and he utilizes it so well.

I was a shredder back in the day. I left and picked up classical guitar because I felt the music element was missing in most electric guitar stuff. Especially shred. It's pretty much always just a display of virtuosity with rarely anything impactful and meaningful. When I got into classical it was a lot more immense musically. The lessons would revolve around musical architecture. Form. Phrasing. Dynamics. Phrasing. Dynamic tempos. Counterpoint. Harmony etc. It was was more about art. And technique was centered around not how fast you could play but about bringing out the music idea the composer had in mind.

He can play anything he's clean he has to chops. And he does it the way we were all taught even though we don't do that minimal finger movement. If he was around and in a half decent rock band back in the day when MTV actually used to play music videos. This guy would be a God on Earth.
