As a guitarist he's mediocre.. But as an entertainer, hahaha, I like this guy.

He is very mediocre, making it look harder than it is. Also, his setup and EQ sounds disgusting; far too much crunch and gain for my liking. The only good thing about it is the fact that he is rather funny and his Gibson SG is sweet.

They have a lot more guitar skills than I do. These kinds of videos made me wish I kept on learning.

I like DavidMeShow. He's entertaining, but I still prefer MysteryGuitarMan on YouTube. He's an awesome musician and has crazy unique ideas for his videos.

he's playing an actual song he wrote, but a lot of it is just improv'd. THAT's how you play guitar

here's him improving.

Thank you Epsilon for liking Marty Friedman.

Not going to post any videos but when him and Jason Becker were together in their band Cacophony, amazing stuff.

Marty Friedman is really not my kinda tea, his stuff seems pretty repetitive and kinda boring :S Just the same stuff over and over.

But listening to the vid's eps posted after listening to the guy in OP... It was a sweet relief to my ears. :)

He might not be a geek guitarist or rock but I like the sound of his songs.

In the start of the vid he says that the song is a tribute to all reaggie artists(he have worked together with bob marley, Johnny Nash.)

Its instrumental only and pretty smoothe so just chill out.
