Really cool dude. I think it is true. You eventually have to break away from imitating your hero’s and find your sound. Most people fail at this. Stuck playing covers in your bedroom for life.

Shredded shredding

Super !

Bravo !

Probably the best explanation ever to get that point across

Jedi Govan.

A great description of the difference between knowledge and skill

Gruthie is great.

Learn and let go.....Thank you Guthrie!

There yu go, folks; from arguably one of the best musician/guitarists EVER - you are just NOT gonna get out of working if you're gonna be any good. At all. Ever. Thank you, Mr Govan; and Thanks for all the great music, too!

what an absolut legend, this one

Bruce Lee once said "Don't think!...Feel"

he is not only talented but he is also wise

i was fortunate to have taken Guthrie's class and it opened my eyes... he is such a great teacher...

Another good nugget from him (paraphrased): whatever you see me play fast, know that at some point I've had to play it very, very slowly.

Very cool. He’s saying the same thing as Vinnie Colaiuta when he said “Thought is the enemy of flow.”

What’s Dave Chapelle doing up there?

Id say hes quite possibly the best to have ever lived. His understanding and ability to improve is unmatched.

So true And what a guitar player

What if guitarists acted like martial artists in the movies? Hi Eric, I went to Guitar Center last night to get some strings and I was challenged by all the students at GC, unprovoked mind you, and after humiliating them in a guitar off the teachers ran out their studios and it was on ! Strats Teles and Les Pauls flew off the wall as they grabbed them to challenge me! I finally did a f melodic minor over E dominant 7, Oh with so many flats and added 13th and 9ths it was over quick. Thanks Sensei but just a heads up though in case the GC teachers show up at the QB today squabbling 😂

I also discovered the same thing about my own playing when learning drums. You - that is I - only really had and have the most fun when my competence and technical vocabulary had reached the point to allow me to not think too much about what I'm going to play, but rather, just let my playing "talk". In order to reach that point you have play a lot, hours every day, and be patient and let your body absorb everything about what you are trying to achieve whilst you are practicing. Also accept the old adage " slow and steady wins the race" - get it right at a slow speed, and the accuracy will remain when you can increase the speed. Try to play it fast from the beginning and you will build-in inaccuracies which will always be there.

Digging the studio vibes, sounds epic, my man We could use more road warriors like you, bro

That was absolutely lovely! Tommy is always great to play

Great job .Great song. Need to get you into a studio for some higher quality sound! Keep it coming.

Very nice, dude. Thanks for posting.

WoW Good

super clean

Excellent playing!

I love your studio 😊 and good playing 👍

Dang Mark, great job!

‘… the day you can do it quicker than you can decide to do it’ … reminds me of a similar phrase Jackie Stewart once said to James May, on ‘Top Gear’ … something like ‘never put your foot down unless you know you don’t have to take it off again’. I know the context and content differs somewhat (and both kinda get on my tits) but, grammatically, it’s a peach.

1:32 he blew that guy's mind on the left with that supremely delivered concept. Along with everyone else in the room.

Perfect Speed

Guthrie the Wise, ladies and gentleman.

Probably the densest video on the internet.

The Gospel of Guitar Jesus! God bless Guthrie! What a fantastic musician!😅

Brillant, wise words from a wise man with a great sense of humor, plus, as a French MF, I really appreciate his so British accent… Such a good player, source of inspiration… Thank you Mr Govan.

when you're *that* good you can give away all your secrets knowing no-one will still ever be able to catch up to you. greatest guitarist of all time.

A tour de force - kudos🎼

Yes! I live for the moments that I hear my hand doing what I need to learn and doing that without a laborious process of wrote. Music is reaction to sound in a language learned by listening.

He has truly become Gandalf the White, not just in wisdom and guitar playing ability, but also in appearance as well.

Brovo!❤

his playing is so irrational in the most orthodox way. I love it

so glad i discovered Guthrie Govan

Is there the full interview available?

His approach to music is the same as that of a language. One can learn a bunch of words or phrases (passive language) but it’s not until you but it into context and start using it that it becomes active language. When first learning a new language you have to think about every word, but eventually the thinking stops and it can just flow freely

Bravo à vous deux, superbe travail !

My god, Guthrie is transforming into a legit wizard

Thanks for sharing Guthrie.

As a classical realist artist, I concur with Mr. Govan.
