i wouldnt call anyone who can play fast the greatest. malmsteen is far from the greatest. you got to have soul and feel. plus unless you have changed the guitar as we know it or done something no one has ever done then your just another shredder. imo

 

[Bierschinken]

Just watch the guitar body and the guy moving and you´ll realize that this one is damn bad fake.....just sped up the tape.

And to my ears it sounds like me playing gameboy

 

[Rossie]

Can't anyone see the humor in this thread?

 

[robelinda2]

well he beats petrucci, no doubting it. all hail the new speed king!



not

 

[lumberjack]

For those that haven't noticed, Jake was attempting some humor. The video is obviously sped up. I know Jake. Trust me. He knows how good Petrucci is. I thought it was funny.

Watch these videos. Warning!!!! These are all joke videos.

JP is the SPEED KING

once again just cause your fast dosent mean your great. many can paly fast. how many of them changed the way the guitar was played or did what was never done before.

 

[Ponch]

cool stuff .. i love the first link..very entertaining !
man..don't get too serious about something that's funny
enjoy your weekend guys. peace.

 

[OrangeChannel]

I don't know if you took the time to peep the clips I linked...but those guys aren't shredders...there's way more to greatness. Phrasing and feel are big too. Just because you can blaze in a linear fashion doesn't make you a great player. Being wellrounded makes you a great player. For instance Landau has played on tens of thousand of records and you'd probably have no clue he was on it, sort of like Luke...the other guys I posted stuff from...well just take in a different slant on the guitar...instead of neoclassical arp licks, why not check out some atonal jazz madness...

 

[J_Alexander]

once again till you redifine how the guitar is played ala evh you are just another player. jimi and clapton and evh are one in a million. flash dosent impress me.

 

[robelinda2]

i own a few Krantz's cd's, good stuff!!! ultra fusiony, and plays a strat so he doesnt have that jazz tone.

 

[Bungo]

I laugh every time I see those JP vids!

 

[slukather]

Mike Landau

Ah hell yeah, l love Michael Landau, thanks man.

Scott.

 

[beej]

Thanks OC- some very cool stuff. I'm a fan of Landau and Henderson, though I don't know the others that well (and the first one is wild!).

There's also more to it than playing. In addition to that, guys like Morse blow me away because of their ability to compose in so many different styles.

i found this video after searching jp out of bordom, i laughed for a good 6minutes so i thought id share it with you guys. speed is also not the only thing that makes you a good guitarist. thats not what i admire most about jp(dont get me wrong hes ****in fast) but i love his approach to playing. the way he pharses and harmonizes with the keyboards. brilliant!

check out this link to!!!

i also am very much inspired by david gilmour. Petrucci and Gilmour are very similiar in there playing. they both use as much feeling as the other in there playing. both amazing musicians

 

[SteveB]

The video was hilarious! The author even took the time to throw a winking emoticon in his clip title so we'd know it was a joke.
