Forgetthe fact that he is just a kid, amazing for any age. I have practiced for more years then he has been alive and do not have the mastery of the pick that he displays. Hope to see him on the big stage someday.
Who taught him...that is the question? Because this is jaw droping skill for an adult, let alone a child. I don't even know how this is possible. He has a level of motor memory and effortless precision that would usually require at least 15 years of practice 5 + hours a day. There needs to be some kind of explanation to clarify how it is he got this bewilderingly good so young. It is an astonishing display of preternatural talent. He should have his brain scanned and be studied! I'd hazard a guess he was born with certain mental and physical attributes that were a recipe for guitar brilliance. He is literally a child genius.
The most proficient 11 year old guitar player in the history of ever!!!!!!! Whoever his guitar teacher is.... must be a spectacular teacher. Big thumbs up.
He's got those limber, double-jointed fingers like Shawn Lane had. AND a very reminiscent left hand shape. 5 year old vid... wonder if he's homeless now. haha it's like all these promising kids you never hear about them later. Hope he's kicking out some amazing stuff because his physical ability is amazing.
It's in RU, they do. If you watch the crowd, they're listening like it's a classical music concert, not a peep or movement out of them, precisely because they *do* recognise it and accord it the respect it deserves.
I'll wager my house on one thing: He didn't sit in a room with an album and a cheap guitar and learn that by ear. Time marches on and lessons, vids, tablature, money... just like how 75 years ago, there were no electric guitars. What blew my mind (if that wasn't finger synced) is how he plays this 6 note scale pattern while he's not even looking and he's giving you that grin like "yeah, I'm bad". ? Pretty amazing.
After hearing him talk, I wouldn't be surprised if you are wrong about the first part. He plays Paul Gilbert's Get out of my yard riff, THE HARD WAY. Not tapping it.
@@Harmonic14 Yea but there was a video of some asian dude playing it tapped with the three E strings Also, it's pretty legendary to see Anton play Get Out of My Yard on a six string (I'm trying to do it too. I am practicing)
I'm currently learning the song scarified.. ~_~ but after watching this kid, I feel like i wanna learn the other one too ! (let the computer decide) This kid is a monster !! Props to the bass player too! They both did an excellent job on the songs ! Paul would be proud!
That's exactly right. And his pitch bends. The start time, finish time, and amount of pitch is perfect on every one, even where it's one of those long bends with multiple hold pitches. It's just incredible. So many youtube guitarists that have comment sections full of over-the-top praise fail (some miserably) at those things.
if you don't watch the video, and let it play, it's almost like listening to Paul play. my god. the only thing missing is the random "Yeah!" Paul does every now and again O.O
socialdef3 Do you acknowledge the fact that he's 11 years old here? And that he was doing a cover song(not an improv or an original that would fully allow him to demonstrate his originality and own unique "feel" for the guitar)? Geez, why don't you go watch some of his original stuff if you want to use that argument, you damn dip.
when i saw the title (11 year old plays paul gilbert) i was like. YA RIGHT OK SURE. this is the most impressive 11 year old i've seen. literally, mouth open. eyes wide. i'm bowing man. you better be famous when your older or i'll be seriously dissapointed. wow i've never heard a more perfect cover in my life. if your vibrato wasn't slightly different than paul gilberts, i'd think it was fake
Hate to break it to you, he is Russian (which is a Euroasian continent), and since only a very small portion of Russia is considered European, and most is considered Asian, (including the capitol, which makes it Asian under all intensive purposes) this kid is more than likely defined as Asian. So effectively, China and Russia are from the same continent, which Europe is not a part of. Hate to be that guy, but... what can ya do? :/
The European part of Russia is an area of about 3.5 million km2 (20.66 % of the territory of Russia and about 35 % of the territory of the whole of Europe) and is 7.2 times larger than France, as well as much larger than any other European state. Good luck.
@@joshk7286 Paul Gilbert mostly played finger exercises extremely fast. I wasn't until much, much later that he actually stopped trying to play ALL the notes in every song and started to get really good at making music. Most people you see playing covers of this are doing it in a studio and usually stopping the camera every time they screw up. This kid is playing this stuff live in front of an audience.
Didn't anybody notice that PG recorded the song and played it live using 7 string guitar where the bottom 4 strings are tuned in D. Anton somehow able to play it on standard tuned guitar. He sweep some part but string skip some others. Crazy talent!
No doubt he's a genius. There are propably very few who can be so masterful at such age. But lets just hope it's not his peak(although this is enough to be great) and that he will expand his skills, knowledge, become more mature(start playing fusion, Morse, Shawn Lane, Becker stuff etc). As the saying goes - such people are interesting only when they are young, sadly. I hope that this is not his peak - he's worth more than this. Let's see what will become of him in his 20s. Best of luck to him.
How the fuck can 56 idiots dislike this genius? The best guitar player at such a young age. Gilbert, Vai, Malmsteen, Petrucci nor anyone else was this good at his age. Totally amazing.
Man that was unbelievable........... God has given some amazing talent. You gotta real ear for the picking and right hand rhythm side of scarified...... very few ppl do that. AWESOME!
This kid is a guitar god at 11 your the man dude never stop playing hopefully ill have the privledge of seeing u live in a couple years i couldnt imagine ur skill then
WTF????????? omg I just can't believe... This really shows that when we limit ourselves.. we simply stay at the back.... GREAT WORK ANTON.. YOU ARE A GENIUS!
Someone like this developers synaptic connections 10x faster than even other individuals with “natural aptitude”. It’s almost like see it/hear it once, play it ten times, Got it.
Man i took almost six months to learn these solos perfectly that is scarcified and let the computer decide... Wow ! that too he's only 11 once he become 30 will put him in the guitar that rules the world.
his picking is insanely clean!
Noticed that too, his picking is just ridiculously accurate.
@adam b Yeah because he is so sick.
considering his age, this is the most amazing display of human talent in the history of human talent
Mozart ☠️
@@Ndk367Lets say last 100 years or so
Антон в 11 лет играл круче, чем я буду в любом возрасте. =)
Да, брат, это загадка
Валентин! Немного усилий,терпения и тренировки! И через 150 лет появится результат. )))
интересно ,а он когда нибудь не умел играть на гитаре?))
да бред,играй в день хотя бы по 5 часов по построенной программе и будет еще лучше)
@@SubPosit ну наверное когда только начинал как все
The bassist is also really good.

Вот свезло же мне поиграть в этот день на одной сцене с Антоном и его братом)) это конкурс гитаристов был в рок баре "Подвал"
The most proficient 11 year old guitar player in the history of ever!!!!!!! Whoever his guitar teacher is.... must be a spectacular teacher. Big thumbs up.
His teacher is Paul Gilbert
Not like all those other vids of young kids playing, this actually sounds amazing, great consistent playing
Gifted , unbelievably talented

Physical ability 😂😂🤘🤘
He's a beast now search Anton oparin on youtube
2:29 - 2:42 is frickin sick !!! This little dude has some serious chops that even people who have been playing their entire lives would envy !
none of these kids in the crowd know how difficult this song really is! This kid is like a prodigy!
It's in RU, they do. If you watch the crowd, they're listening like it's a classical music concert, not a peep or movement out of them, precisely because they *do* recognise it and accord it the respect it deserves.
this song gets harder and harder, and he just keeps doin better and better
Absolutely unbelievable. Virtuoso.
One in a million.

В 11 лет сам Пол так не сыграл бы. Браво!
Phenomenal bass work as well :O
Damn for all I know, this could be the Paul Gilbert 20 years down the line...
Вот тут всё совпало. И талант, и Божий поцелуй,и желание,и возможности. Пусть Бог ему помогает в творчестве и долгих и плодотворных лет жизни.
Какой нахуй поцелуй божий и талант? Это результат огромной работы. Это непоколебимый труд и желание. Тошнит от ваших богов и талантов.
Utterly amazing. What a talent. He's destined for greatness.
what talent.... i wish i could play this!
if you don't watch the video, and let it play, it's almost like listening to Paul play. my god. the only thing missing is the random "Yeah!" Paul does every now and again O.O
This makes guitarists want to put their guitars on ebay.
nope. it makes me appreciate emotion more, when you see music that is devoid of it.
socialdef3 bullshit
arcykaplanhehe no.

TheRealBubfield405 sounds more like you're butthurt about something, but I can't put a finger on it.
Ive been playing as long as this guys been on the planet. Ill give him credit. he is 20 years past me.

nigel barker
haha!!! Don't remember, America is an Arabian country or they are Indians or maybe part of Israel?
nigel barker but the kids from the European part of Russia
Even though the asian part of Russia is much bigger, european part is much more populated. 78% of Russian population lives in european part.
The European part of Russia is an area of about 3.5 million km2 (20.66 % of the territory of Russia and about 35 % of the territory of the whole of Europe) and is 7.2 times larger than France, as well as much larger than any other European state. Good luck.
This makes me furious and now I'm going to practise
It's so refreshing to see a comment like this on such videos as opposed to "I'm going to throw away my guitar now :("
Nah it makes me passionate
So clean. So very, very clean.
I love this guy. Very clean like a paul gilbert
does anyone here wanna buy my guitar? this kid makes me cry
Is Paul Gilbert now "Scarified"?
Paul Gilbert was inventing these licks in his early mid teens, and by 17 was one of the most technically accomplished guitarists on the planet.

You have to check out racer x, or one of paul's clinic from 1986, he is so terrifying back in the 80's

B-But how, HE ISN'T EVEN ASIAN
Camgrow red russia is in asia
Nick Salvatore but russian people aren't asian race lol
His picking hand is so smooth, it just flows so well over the strings.
genius ! 11 year old .. and then super guitarist!!
Что, простите? Он в 11 сыграл круче, чем я смогу за 11 лет тренировок
57 people have kids that can only sing beiber's songs
hahah now it's 87
Still 87, and I hope it stops there.
The best young talent I ever saw!!!
If only the other 11 year olds were mature enough to understand how completely amazing this is.
i feel so bad at guitar now, damnit, couldn't he miss a couple notes :(
I came from SteveTerreberry
Me too
Same
This kid Shreds Hefty!!! ROCK ON. Love it when he's shreddin the solo and not even looking. KRAZY
Paul Gilbert must very proud of you!! I hope he saw this video.
Антон, а у тебя вообще детство было??)) Это же скок нужно было заниматься чтоб так играть в 11 !!! лет! ?
Он уже в 8 нехило играл, скажу я тебе)
он просто всё время занимался тем, что любит. Музыкой. Проснулся, взял гитару в руки и заснул с ней же.
He shits on the asians because actually plays with feeling and he doesn't play MESSY when he plays fast, respect earnt
Holy shit! One of the best covers of this song I have ever seen. Little dude, You F'ing rock!
No kidding. I just finished watching a video of Paul playing scarified himself, and honestly, this kid's cover was the better of the two lol.
Best Guitar-playing kid vid on RUclips. Full Stop.
Surgically accurate, great feel for a kid, great tone.
11yo: Fucking amazing.
he's not just playing, it's performing it, nice attack, tone control and tuned bending.
You are a VERY talented young man, stick with it and you will shine!
Let the computer decide after scarified was outstanding!
This is the greatest kid ever.
glad to see that the young one's can recognize awesomeness when they hear it.
Unbelievable, incredible.....Paul you are outstanding!!!
Wow a true prodigy. He was definitely born to play. Congrats!!!! Paul Gilbert should see this
First time in my life that im truely inspired to practice longer and harder... by an 11 year old. Anton, you rule man!
The sound is so clean for playing such hard tracks ! ! !
This kid is amazing...! ! !
How the fuck can 56 idiots dislike this genius? The best guitar player at such a young age. Gilbert, Vai, Malmsteen, Petrucci nor anyone else was this good at his age. Totally amazing.
I have been playing for 8 years, and still have trouble with this song! Awesome video. This kid is a prodigy.
he is sooo awesome
This kid is FUDGING INSANE!! Haters better not hate or I'll hate on haters!
Anton Oparin, thanks for your dedication, just to remind US all That everything is possible!
wow...SO Good! Amamzing.. I practice everyday and I am not even close... how anyone can hit dislike on this is beyond me....
This kid is amazing. I'm surprised this video isn't on the front page of RUclips.
11 years old and he's freakin' good! I wanna see an 8 months old playing SCARIFIED in youtube!!!!
Man that was unbelievable........... God has given some amazing talent. You gotta real ear for the picking and right hand rhythm side of scarified...... very few ppl do that. AWESOME!
Это, блин, невероятно! После Макса Остро смотрю это видео, в котором парень еще на 3 года младше играет Гилберта... просто парад гениев.
This kid is incredible! and he has my guitar.
Can't we focus on the fact that this kid is truly talented.
Blessed by the gods, the great Anton Oparin!
Cant even express the brain power it takes to pull this off almost immediatly this kid is a genious
Way to go....hope he releases instrumentals when he matures
Amazing...This kid is more skilled at age 11 than what many guitarists become during their whole career
This is beast beyond all belief... I was just starting to play at that age, and about 4 years later (now), I've just finished learning this song.
badass, the force is strong in this one
Very nice, first time i've seen a real young person shred it, pretty impressed.
He's so perfectly clean! Jesus
Awesome!!! Cant wait till your 25 and kicking out your own shred songs!!! Wicked playing!!!
true prodigy! his technique is unbelievable!!!!!!! holy crap!! 0.0!!!
Гений гитары,дар, талант,и огромная работа 🤘
и вот ЭТОГО человека юрец потрошить взялся. ДА конечно Антоха квинту в ударку не кладёт и вообще играть не умеет.Смехота.
This never ceases to amaze me
Unbelievably Awesome
Never thought I would see an 11 year old guitar virtuoso, congratz, you're absolutely awesome, cheers from brazil
the future of instrumental rock music. yesss, you're the man.
This kid is a guitar god at 11 your the man dude never stop playing hopefully ill have the privledge of seeing u live in a couple years i couldnt imagine ur skill then
Speechless...
HOLY. SHIT. So clean. That blew my mind.
WTF????????? omg I just can't believe... This really shows that when we limit ourselves.. we simply stay at the back.... GREAT WORK ANTON.. YOU ARE A GENIUS!

In my life I have only seen book geek..but this guy is a guitar geek👌
Holy fuck, that kid is GOOD! And not just for his age; I doubt there are many people twice his age who could play this stuff as clean as he does.
Man i took almost six months to learn these solos perfectly that is scarcified and let the computer decide... Wow ! that too he's only 11 once he become 30 will put him in the guitar that rules the world.

Yes he is also awesome
Absolutely amazing. What a talent.
