Kiwi Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0Ifd3xkR04&t=80s[/media] Coming around here with his stunningly beautiful, articulate and sensual melodic playing, his flawless switching between improvised harmonies using 10ths and searingly explosive lead runs. Well f*** him. He's not going to make me give up my djenty power chords and high gain. Never. No. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuNkShUi Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 He is my favorite player on Instagram. Been following him for as long as i can remember. So good. I love his phrasing, and his understated style. Class act Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul h Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 I said this to a friend the other day...I'm in the odd position at the moment that two of my favourite guitarists are from Youtube. Mateua Asato and Pete Thorn. I've hardly heard anything they have done in a band or even song context but they both blow me away with their feel and taste. In the old days my favourite guitarist was just whoever was playing guitar in my favourite band Now it's all based on one or two minute long clips on Youtube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuNkShUi Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 I know Mateus plays guitar for Tori Kelly. She's pretty big in the U S of A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi Posted April 27, 2017 Author Share Posted April 27, 2017 His playing is incredibly vocal - I think that's what other guitarists mean when they say 'melodic'. He's throwing in double stops to add emphasis which I've only ever heard Pino do in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if he sings? I find that quite often it's guitar players who also sing who have a more natural/vocal sounding phrasing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi Posted April 28, 2017 Author Share Posted April 28, 2017 He does sing! I haven't heard him yet though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bass_Guardian Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 I feel the same each time I see Tommy Emmanuel on Youtube. The guys just out of this world! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
