"24 frets, because that how I roll."
Guthrie Govan is one of the most underrated musicians in the world. His playing is beautiful, inspirational and personal.
he's NOT underrated!
+BarbecueFitness Hardly, most guitarists know he is pretty much the world's best player. But you're right if you're talking about the general public I suppose...
+BarbecueFitness Really? He's considered somewhat of a deity of a guitar world at this moment. I can hardly imagine you can get higher that that.
+Abrar Jahin Nafi Yes. He is.
+Hegelian Triad he's not, Unknown perhaps outside of guitar circles. Anyone who sees him play knows how good he is....
4:55 so beautiful !!
Apart from the jaw-dropping chops, Guthrie seems like such a well-balanced bloke, always ready to share with enthusiasts. His whole vocab for describing what he wants in his guitars, and the sounds he hears in his head... 'sometimes you need a little creaminess in your life...' is so entertaining to listen to.
GG is an eloquent, highly intelligent, humble, virtuoso musician.
I would hire him to just talk to me. I like him that much. Super intelligent, witty....oh yeah, aaaaaaand he's the most elite guitar player Ive ever heard.
What we have here folks is the real deal. Real talent, uniqueness, wit and the ability to surprise every time - and that's just the bloke holding the guitar. Not surprising the guitar shares the same qualities.
Guthrie is such a gentleman and a very humble guy.
Everything he plays is pure gold. He's got that Jeff Beck articulation as part of his default riff age.
If Guthrie was a guitar he'd look just like that one.
🍺cheers lmao !!
I just realized why I've always wanted a charvel
SUCH A DUDE!!
THE DUDELIEST
So glad the original first generation floyd is being rediscovered, always thought it looked better than the later models although still pretty rare to see them on guitars.
this guy is a fucking god, i dont like the heavy stuff but this guy can play it all. i could sit here for days and listen to him riff around. jeeez
4:57 dat chord progression..so beautiful
I think he´s the best rock-fusion guitar player in the world.. his musicality matches his amazing ability and his diversity on styles, make him really unique, far away from others fusion and rock players.. only weakness, his composing production it´s really little..only one solo record? c´mon! he should make at least five in past years
The Gotoh trem has definitely served Guthrie well. Nice to see he's trying out new stuff with Charvel.
totally left me re-inspired to go ham on the guitar!
i like how he demonstrated licks in the exact style associated with every tone
I went to one of Guthrie's clinics and actually got to sit about 5 feet away from where he was playing that exact same guitar. I have to say, I never heard such a fine piece of wood like that axe.
I love that he's using the Freak Guitar Camp t-shirt. I have three of them at home. One from each year I've been there. Met Mr.Govan there in 2010 and that was an awesome moment in my life. The camp is happening in Sweden as we speak, this very week, but sadly I couldn't be there this year. Come next year, I'll be back.
Brilliant guitarist and one classy dude 8-)
I totally agree, and the funny thing is I don't even play guitar but I simply love watching, listening and learning about something I know next to nothing about !
What a great soul... In his demeanor and playing. So far beyond technical ability... I sincerely believe he is a living legend, and one of the finest players to pick up the instrument. If you get a chance to see him live, you will truly understand!! Don't miss out!
Come on lottery!!! Daddy needs this guitar!! 😜😎
+Scot Dvorak Going to see him on the g3 tour in the summer plus i may have a chance to get one of them charvels, still not sure about it though. Fucking excited about the concert though.
+Banter is so much FUN you're gonna be blown away!!
Scot Dvorak can't wait. Would like the guitar to. Do you have one?
+Banter is so much FUN nope... Maybe someday! Actually I would love his victory amp too!
+Scot Dvorak yea they sound amazing.
Erm... Sqwonky? xD hahah I need to listen to more of this dude cos he is awesome.
I really hope Charvel make a budget version of this, I would buy it In an instant!
This man is a great guitarist
Everybody saying how he didn't choose the best kind of wood for the guitar just makes it more awesome, he makes it sound so warm and amazing, When it "shoudn't"
The show was fantastic that night as well.
The best thing about it is the jack! It took 60 years and a guitar genius to come up with that.
People insult Guthrie for just playing to fast
then he plays jazz, bluegrass, and blues...for a sound check.
GuitarPanda the only people who would insult such a world class player are jealous and can’t play shit
@@zackcoffmanguitar He is a lick meister no doubt... he just isn't musical. His compositional skills are missing. If licks are "words" he is a dictionary, not a story:)
@@batmandeltaforce you're so wrong I'm not even gonna bother arguing with you...
Apostolos Papadopoulos Apostolos Papadopoulos hahahaha i think he meant it in kinda sarcastic way..but i dont know if he really meant it like Guthrie is not that good, then he’s probably from a different world..so far i’ve never seen any player as fluent as Guthrie, he is a living dictionary as people always say..but in a way, i think Guthrie’s most perfect competition is Michael Casswell and Alex Hutchings
@@tajolariffin6147 yeah. I'm triggered
Thanks for the heads up. Looking forward to it.
Charvel guitars are awesome
I love listening to this guy talk. Hes so witty. Cool guitar too!
I keep watching Guthrie videos half of the reason because I like how he talks as well as how he plays.
baswood was a great choice of woods. it is so versatile and it is cheap but great!
I agree as soon as this becomes available in whatever version I am getting one.
He seems funny and nice yet eccentric kind of guy :D
Mr. Govan, thanks for not being a failure. Thanks for developing habits that eventually led to your becoming one of the most interesting musicians on the planet. Much thanks to whoever encouraged you to start and keep playing.
Thanks Music Zoo. Out of the many guitar-equipment-demonstration videos I've watched online, this one is one of the best; beautifully filmed. Guthrie also helps muchly by making a particularly amiable and informative interview subject!
This is a guy that knows what he wants - and the result was an awesome & versatile guitar
Guthrie you're such an incredible person and musician, THOSE CHORD PROGRESSIONS!!
Good guy to hang out with no doubt
Played a basswood J Satriani Ibanez at a jam session and it was so springy and lively I felt like it played itself and fought me less than anything I've played since. Maple top makes this Charvel experimental do the Les Paul thing in a way, yeah? I heard so many different variations in sounds depending on the attack used it is very appealing.
Another great Guthrie Video ... thanks for the post "The Music Zoo" ... it's always amazing to watch Guthrie just noodle! His noodling is better then most guitar players worked out improvising. We especially love the Jazzy Clean tone stuff he plays here ... so we Transcribed it and did a lesson on it. Hope you like it. Thanks again for the great video Post!
WOOOW that actually makes sense to have floyd rose without fine tuners cuz you don't have locking nut to make you need them anyways! I wonder why he wouldn't use a regular floating trem or Wilkinsons tho...
big thumbs up for the dude who filmed this. nice work :)
It's been too long since I travelled to see Guthrie I think some travelling is in the near future!
i cant get enough of this guitar!
Probably one of the most versatile guitars I've seen, that doesn't use some kind of digital modeling. Pretty badass.
Not a great lover of shred type playing but I just love Guthrie, as a player and a person. I realise he's not a shred player folks, and in my opinion he's up there with the best guitarists in the world.
+Tony Little He might not be a shred player, but he can out shred any shredder! Really.
I like big frets and I don't know why...Cant wait for this guitar to hit the stores!
Saw them live last night. ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!
Your technique is so impressive, cheers mate.
"This guy" is probably the finest guitar player in the world right now. Certainly among them, at the very least. Talent which requires a dictionary to describe.
new guthrie video makes any day a good day
Very cool guitar. I am copying that jack cup on the next guitar I build - great idea. I bet the dots by the knobs are index markers for numbered knobs - like you can get the old-fashioned metal pointers on washers to put under speed knobs. That would be so handy if you get most of your timbrel changes from the guitar itself.
amazing how he can still sound like a boss just doing warm up licks and practices
I could listen to this man talk and play all day! Thanks GG! Also, i think you must include the terms "bone nut" and "nut sauce" in all interviews from this day forward.
That input is Genius!
It's called the TremelNo. You can do a search for it. They have a website.
This guy is a total class act, I love hearing his descriptions and analogies on things. Just like his guitar playing, his use of the english language is far superior to mine.
the stuff that he plays at 5:00 is beautiful
Guthrie is awesome!
Me like the reverse jack input very very mucho. :D and the multi tonal pups....
How is it everything Guthrie does seems to be genius? Even his guitar is a smart breed of unique, expressive and immensely functional
I am hoping to get one of these when they come out - and I hope they are exactly like this...with the floyd as well - I had one of those a long time ago on a Kramer I know they might have been cheaper but it was the first of Floyd which we all know now is famous!! I wonder if these will have some "blower" switch like the Suhr did.
I love this guitar... Gutherz has put so much thought into it. I can't really think of anything I would want to change... apart from maybe moving the volume knob because that position sometimes gets in the way of my picking hand. I'm trying to tell myself to try one first and not buy one blindly on the internet!
Gotta love Guthrie.
The Guy is a Genius.
lovin the old floyd rose original trem
guthrie is a fucking incredible human being
my new favorite player
In all seriousness.. Thank you Mr G for another great showcase!
"Sometimes you need a little creaminess in your life.."
+Enslaved1184 Was that the nut sauce he was referring to?
+wilsocn Hahaha, no that would be hilarious though. He was referring to the creaminess of tone when he was using the bridge pickup only and turned the tone nob down quite a bit. Right at 4:30
literally one of the best signatures thats ever been described
That bridge def gives it a original look
I can't wait for it to come out as well but I'm shore it's going to have a hefty and insane price tag like $3000. Because we all have that laying around to blow on a guitar!!! just hope the price is REASONABLE!
that jack output is really cool,
Hey Sreejith ... like you, we wanted to learn the chords he was playing as well the melodic minor lick he threw in at the end ... so we figured it out and figured we'd do a lesson for anyone who wanted to learn it as well. Just do a youTube search for "guitarbreakdown guthrie govan charvel". Just wanted to let ya know.
Guthrie is the master.
That's the tone I've been looking for!!! Texas Skwongky!!
No guitar can't be too bad nor too good for a guitar genius like GG
4:56-5:12 the most beautful riff I've ever heard
guthroe sounds so happy
I love the sound...
I think one of the easiest ways of knowing if someone has a unique voice is if you can listen to them and immediately know its them. Its obvious with Vai and Holdsworth, but I think you can also tell with Guthrie. There really is no one else like him - not to say he's the best or the best in every style but he takes what he wants from each and at the end of the day its him. You really wouldn't be able to listen and know immediately its guthrie govan?
Listen to his playing on the newest Steven Wilson album, especially the solo on "Drive Home"...first take with mistakes and all, but amazing feeling. Generally his work on that album is outstanding and very musical. In my opinion, of course...
Hey LedondofTheRiverKing ... He may not have finished it with a "closing chord" ... but if you are interested in learning what he is playing (and figure out your own closing chord) ... Just do a youTube search for "guitarbreakdown guthrie govan charvel". Hope you like it.
Hey TJ ... just a heads up ... we breakdown this part of what he is playing in a lesson ... just do a youTube search for "guitarbreakdown guthrie govan charvel". Just wanted to let ya know.
This guy really is cool and explains well
Mate you can get a few of them if you look around here...abalone vintage. Apparently FR are looking at making them again. There are naturally alternatives that are very similar check out schallers Fender deluxe locking bridge, personally I think Schaller will be producing the FR bridges anyway.
definitely wouldnt mind one of his guitars
Govan is a genius!
Many thanks. On my way now :o)
"24 frets.. because that's how I roll"
Yeah you tell 'em Guthrie!
I'm gonna get one!
100% agree. You can't compare X musician to X musician. They're not athletes. There's really no stats to go by which player is better like sports because in my opinion music is in the ear of the listener. That's what I love about it. There are so many people doing what they want to do. Doing what they themselves pour their heart and soul into creating these works of art that so many love. Its such a personal yet public thing that EVERYONE enjoys. No matter the person, everyone has THEIR favorite
I want this guitar.
At the end of almost every sentence he does a "Joker Face" : )))
Very cool guy...
