What people don't understand is that being famous is not just about being good. It is about being at the right place at the right time, knowing the right people, marketing, image and so many other things.
and thats called getting lucky..
80% is image, don't kid yourself.
Amen
@@sixslinger9951 it really is
At the least, she's a better than average guitar player
Pretty face
Works really hard
Clincher: Nina seems like a really nice person; maybe a rarity in the professional sports and/or music arena. It is hard not to like her and wish her success.
Edit, not to mention, this video was recorded four years ago! In somewhat of a fulfilling prophecy, now she has (had) not only a #1 song on the Rock charts, but has also moved into an even more prestigious (lucrative) role as the guitarist for Demi Lovato (not that I don't like Alice Cooper's music better, but then I was a kid when he started releasing albums)
Met her when she was at Sweetwater’s Gearfest. She was really down to earth and took the time to talk to my 11 year old daughter. My daughter thought it was the coolest thing ever.
I agree. She's a really nice person And she can play like h&ll. BTW, I was the last guy in that long ass line at Sweetwater's Gearfest and she was patient enough to wait and take a selfie with me. I was so flustered she grabbed my phone and took the pic herself. What a great girl with a great smile.
I met her at gearfest too. Had fun at that one.
That’s awesome.
@@mbgmail5911 so how famous are you? Did Alice hire you?
I had a friend that was like that. He was saying bad things about Van Halen, but still working where I work.
Me too there. Super cool.
We like you making RUclips videos about $80 bass guitars too, Max.
I’ll second that. What you do here is really appreciated.
@@bobmarone6192 More like Under Appreciated.....
Yeah, I'm sure that's true with some people, but it seems to me that most people here seem to really like what he does. Unfortunately, there will always be haters and trolls around. All I know is if I hadn't somehow stumbled in here I would likely not be learning to play guitar, and I would have never found the guitar I just bought, and love. So, count me among the appreciative.
Max is off the steroids look at the size loss
I think I'd rather watch for bass review honestly and I don't even bass.
I don't care what anybody thinks, the girl plays better than I do and that's all that counts. She's learned her creds. End of story!
You took the words out of my mouth
does that mean you care what somebody says
Her rise has been incredible. I met her at a free 2015 guitar clinic in Toronto that maybe had 40 people show up. Pretty sure that wouldn't be the case today. She was super cool and nice. She's even taken time to compliment my artwork on IG . It's great to see good people succeed. She deserves it.
What a great video, man. It's very rare these days to see someone actually realize that someone has worked very tirelessly to get where they are, and then give them praise for their efforts. It shows that you have enough life experience to make that call. Bravo.
I’m not jealous of Nita, I’m just jealous of her boyfriend!
Hell Yeah Brother!!! So right!!!
Jorgie WTF so am I.
She's is married now.
Agreed.
I'm jealous of her guitars, it's the most wood she's ever got her hands on.
I already enjoy your videos and have found them very helpful...your self-depreciation in this particular video is slyly funny, and greatly appreciated.
You don't get hired by Alice Cooper if you're mediocre.
SchwartzerAdler, thats not true lol.
SchwartzerAdler *white knight enters chat*
This is true. Alice Cooper even said it in a video interview it's on youtube.
You just have to look for it.
Damn right!
Jet Alice didn't call her for the recording of his last album.
I thought this was going to be a roast video lmao
Edit: 2 mins in yea this is a roast video
edit 2: 2:45 mins in no this is not
Patience Rudy!
Whwn he mentioned the bodybuilding.com
Max is not that type of person, its obvious from his videos that Max is genuine; in a good way. And his guitar skills are awesome!
I love you
Rudy Ayoub If you follow Max long enough, and you sure can tell that he hardly roost anyone or any product. Instead, he gives genuine comment or advise at a netural position. Non bias at all. Great guy!
Your videos are always level-headed, articulate and well-thought-out. Great vid.
Thank you!
Just now stumbling up on this. Great coverage and feature! Nita rocks! 🤘🏼🎸🤘🏼
We should be glad to hear kick ass guitar rock being made by anybody, regardless of their gender. I don't envy her for her success, I just wish I could play as well as her. Stoked to see all her hard work is paying off for her.
You forgot to mention she's the great great grand daughter of the guy who wrote the Blue Danube.
for real?!
Uncle Ben watches guitar Max? Lol! If only you could do a collaboration vid where you rip on Chinese guitar s and he defends them...😁
@@BenEller yes
Another great video--done professionally and with class. But, for what it's worth, I'm good with what YOU bring to the guitar world via your videos.
I know this has been out for over a year . I’ve seen Nita on a few different interviews and she seems very down to earth and really enjoys playing.
Wish her continued success.
Alice Cooper has more credibility than any commenter here, so I go by what he said. Basically, there are thousands of talented guitar players out there. But they also need "the look", an awesome stage presence. So that narrows it down to a few hundred. Then they also need to be someone you can stand to be around 24 hours a day, because when touring thats how its going to be non-stop. So that narrows it down to 2 or 3. Makes sense. Nita can play, we know that. She looks hot and doesn't stand on the stage awkwardly or stiff as a board, she rocks her moves so she does have the look and stage presence. And from seeing her vids and interviews she does seem very warm and personable, someone easy to get along with even for long periods. So there you go. Alice Cooper himself gave us her "secret" for success. I think a lot of bedroom guitar players in this world who feel that they can do what she does have to realize that they have to match all three of those criteria. 1 or 2 out of the 3 isn't going to be good enough.
Why does Alice Cooper hired Orianthi and Nita Strauss ?? Because there both attractives females 1 and there both good guitar players 2.
Being agreeable or easy to get a long with is a major skill set for studio musicians and hired guns. Especially being around rock stars all the time. I remember someone mentioning pretty much the sane thng about pete thorn or phil x. Just great personalities and great command of the instrument has been what lead them both to success.
Finally a smart comment.
@@nomorebs Thorny Pete and Phil X are pathetically minor league compared to guys like EVH, George Lynch, Jake E Lee, Vito Bratta, Nuno... I could go on. They're not even considered real hired guns like Landau or Lukather.
It does take the full package. I've seen attitude alone kill people
I love Nita. She's just got this vibe that is infectious, and her love of the guitar is obvious. I saw at a clinic in LA and it was standing room only
Your videos are amazing, do not underestimate their worth, and impact. Thank you.
I love your humility. Great video thanks!
Its rare to see the top players reach the highest rungs of success professionally. Those places are usually reserved for those who make the best business decisions. Which is why most guitarists, who are usually skilled, often never graduate past playing at home or few local gigs for kicks. Nita is a perfect combo of talent complete with business savvy.
What's the deal with Nita Strauss?? She's super-talented, she's ambitious, a positive-thinker and of course, beautiful. Done. lol
Boredom Strikes I don't think she's good looking at all. All I was concentrating on was her guitar playing until maxx pointed out her looks, then I looked at her face and she's clapped as all hell.
Great video thanks a lot keep them coming
What! That was a nice positive piece! Thanks! I’m glad I watched!
Nita is a badass. She held a clinic here in Des Moines at GC the night before Alice Cooper played here and you can tell she works her butt off. She's smart, dedicated, driven, and a great guitarist. It's nice to hear you give her kudos and back her up. You impress me more every time I watch one of your videos. Good Job!
This is one of your best vids to me BECAUSE I love the subject matter in that you're talking about work ethic, etc.
Please do more about other artists as well.
She is a good guitar player, and in the wonderful capatilists system no one is forced to buy her music, or music in which she is a part of. She provides value and as you stated her hard work is paying off. Sure, her being a female doesn't hurt, and she has a nice body and is easy on the eyes, but she has also earned her way. Really earned her rewards via time and effort to provide value.
Also, I fucking Love her signature guitar. For one, the S series is such a great all around guitar because it's so lightweight, well balanced, etc. Plus hers has the coolest ever inlays. That heart EKG or whatever it's called is just killer. I only wish Ibanez had thicker necks because I personally am not a typical Yngwie or Steve Vai type shredder and I have had numerous S series and RGs from Japan, etc. I currently have a S series model 440v which has a two point fender like bridge by gotoh that is killer. No locking nut, but does have locking tuners. I am going to put a Dimarzio super3 in the bridge or tone zone and then dragon fire pickups in the neck and middle single position. It will scream.
Great video and please keep it up. I get great value from almost all, or all of your vids.
Thanks again for doing what you do.
Malmsteen uses Fender,they don't have that wizzard type neck, just saying ; )
@@mindcrazer Yes indeed. I like both.
@@mindcrazer I just meant Yngwie and Sfeve vai are both shredders and many shredders like thin necks.
Thanks for keeping the positive vibe on all of your videos. I like that wherever necessary, you offer legitimate, constructive criticism. That's infinitely more productive than being insulting, or, trashing a person, or, product. Keep up the great work.
Great video as always!!!!
I'm glad you feel the same way I do about her, it's still a lot harder for a woman to gain respect in this business and Nita damn sure deserves it, I've followed her since the Iron Maidens, she's an amazing guitarist and I hope she keeps going on to greater things, love her!
Didn't even know she was in that band🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@jcalzada74 ...
Hmmm...yeah, I didn't either, I still don't really know who she is, but I did
manage to catch a performance of the Iron
Maidens a number of years
ago...
They were all hot, musically
and physically...
stop trying to be a hero
Personally always found her wildly mediocre. She's by no means awful, but there are thousands better. If she was male, I doubt she'd have a career
Jimmy Jones we all have opinions
Nita deserves ever bit of praise she has worked damn hard and it shows what practice can do .
I tip my hat to her.
And will be getting the cd
Nita has inspired me to up my game. I've watched some of her instructional vids which have really helped. Looking forward to her solo stuff!
Thanks for the great review!! I am picking up the album
Satriani said recently that she is the biggest up and coming guitarist currently.
Yeah, we like your reviews of $80 bass guitars. Not everyone even wants to be a shredder, at least not me. I grew up on much earlier stuff. But I did see Alice Cooper at the Rose Palace in 1970. Long before the shred era. Its all just what you like I suppose.
Bullshit.
Everyone wants to shred.
Rick Derringer was the first shredder. Hendrix said so.
You rock brother and have achieved a lot yourself . Right now the scene is showcasing female shredders , which is perfectly fine , they deserve their rightful place . She’s a great guitarist as well ! But what you do on here really can’t be replaced . You take a guy like you who has great success and skill and you bring it to us people who are like me , a player with 43 years playing who chose not to Be in a band but does home recording stuff! Your gear reviews and lessons are an in valuable tool .Plus you rocked with Hellion , what more can you ask for ? Rock on brother !!!
Max! Although I really enjoy your reviews and your lesson videos, this was definitely one of your best! Great job dude!
Thanks Kevin, that's great to hear!
Nita is ameizing
Not a word that she is a Strauss - she was pretty much encouraged by her family to pursue music because she's related and her family is rich off music. Her father bought out tickets to a teenage talent show so her band could play to an audience, for example.
Not saying this is a bad thing, I think she's pretty much earned what she has.
PRACTICE. one can NEVER get enough of that. most excellent advice,jackson. yeah.
1st. I’m really happy we have someone like you to make articulate,great, informative videos! Thank you Max!
2nd. I think Nita has a great personality and is a super roll model for any young guitarist today. She’s a great guitarist with great style. I can’t say she leads the pack as far as roll models for women per say. As there were many before her ie: Lita Ford, Jennifer Batten, And others. What she has is relatability..I follow her across social media and she seems like a very down to earth , hard working individual. I have nothing but respect for her and her talents. She’s also drop dead gorgeous so that doesn’t hurt!lol
Great short video review, made realistic picture of the beautiful lady with decent guitar skills.
Maybe she is not the best guitarist in the world, and maybe she is not miss universe, but she is certainly unique combination of female beauty and guitar s-killer.
She probably deserves to attract all that attention, especially when we think what efforts she invested in herself, in terms of guitar skills and good look.
Maybe the greatest success of her is that she made it as a girl in a cruel men's world.
You Max, thank you dear friend for finding the best instruments for the low dollar, for all us guitar/bass enthusiasts.
Max, Nita is a complete package from marketing point of view. She is decent female guitar player that may inspire more young girl to start picking up guitar, guitar world needs more young female player obviously. She is attractive is a feature she has, and its a bonus. How could it be better for the brand? For us, being a guitarist, we need to think again what feature we have beside our guitar playing....
Fast forward to 2023, and Nita has released an awesome record featuring some guest vocals as well as some shredding tracks that is so well put together and an excellent slab of metal.
I pre-ordered the splatter vinyl!!! Can't wait to listen to it! \m/
"Now am I jealous of where her career is? No! I like making RUclips videos about $80 baas guitars"
Hahaha that line cracked me up. Keep doing what you love brother! You rock!
I think Nita's amazing, she's actually talented and very beautiful.
I think it's sexist that people think women can't rock. I blame courtney love for making all women in rock look bad.
Good grief, the irony seems to be lost on you...
Courtney love is a fucking legend
Thanks for the info bud!
Just saw her and Angel Vivaldi last night. She is THAT good and her album kicks ass.
Enjoyed your video btw. Subbed
Ah hell you got me! Thought this was gonna be a put down on her
Satriani was impressed with her when she jammed with Vai, Paul Gilbert, and Satch at NAMM. I mean, that's pretty high praise.
www.metalcastle.net/joe-satriani-praises-alice-cooper-guitarist-nita-strauss/
No dude...he's being polite (and political).
Thanks for your video. Nita is cool and I like the way she plays! Just yesterday I saw her performance on youtube. Keep rocking GuitarMax! Your youtube channel is interesting.
Took my son to her GC clinic and it was well awesome! She went way over time still did a full meet and greet loved taking to the crowd and overall it was a killer time!
She is quite good... it's her boyfriend that's overrated... lol...
T Crane thats why he has to spit fire while he plays the drums
@@johnb7800 1- Never heard of her boyfriend's name before. To me , he's just another one out of a trillion faceless drummers out there ... Gotta start somewhere i guess...
2- if he spits fire, that just seals the deal for me talent- wise.... Ummmm, maybe not!
At first, I thought this guy was jealous, then I realized, im jealous too
@@charlieshaw2866 I'm sorry, was that a sentence?
T Crane lemme translate. Dear aquatance ,of which I am choosing to refer to as family in a metaphorical manor, I object for one such as myself is of the belief that you simply wish to obtain a vibrant yet short lived sexual relationship with this woman.
Nita Strauss is amazing she has worked hard for everything she has
Man, about that Ammoon bass... I bought the blue one. Put a bone nut, Elixir 45-95 strings (hybrid set)... and it's amazing now. Thanks to YOUR video!! Keep your cheap guitars vids, you rock.
Nita has earned her wings through hard work and dedication to her craft- respect!
I can explain:
A she is female
B she plays good guitar
C we just live in that age where sexism changed form.
It precedes those bigots .
I think her success is absolutely based on her talent, skill, and hard work. She's an amazing guitarist that deserves everything she has worked for. But, to say that her pretty face had nothing to do with the attention she's accrued is a little myopic. She would still be successful, regardless of her physical form because of the aforementioned, but I don't think she would get nearly as much attention without it. She would most likely just be seen as just another great guitarist playing in a great band, not someone making the news every other day.
Her talent ? I can point you to 50 youtube guitarists vastly more talented. But I wont deny her hard work, she does seem like a hard worker.
Im not saying its her pretty face, Im saying its her gender, the need for todays musicians to include women to a majority men environment, the political climate as a whole.
Its called tokenism, whether if she is fit for the position or not, they would regardless pick a woman, just so they can say they have a woman on board.
@@alexandert696 A pretty face will help her for sure but she can still do the business, her work ethic I don't know about but I always felt she should have remained in the Iron Maidens.
Yes she can and so can a great number of other people. My point is that people include women and poc where you would normally find the best candidate for the job because of tokenism.
He likes making RUclips videos about $80 guitars! That's good stuff right there. Hang in there Max, you never know when lightning will strike. On a side note, I can write some cool songs that are usually simple in structure but it makes me feel like I'm a total charleton on the guitar. I did have a song featured on Jessee Lee Peterson's RUclips channel called the Fallen State. It is always an honor for people to like music you create but my stuff comes with an asterisk (this guy is not as good as you think he is!) Lol.
Max, you're a great dude - you know how to put a revue together and you kept it informative, wryly amusing - and ultimately generous and fair. You're a gent, dude. Sorry, djent.
Thanks Allan! I don't typically do biographical videos like this, but I'll probably be doing more consider how much people like this one!
Dude, she admittedly started off learning with Doug Marks Metal Method on VHS. That, to me, is as legit OG as you can get. From what Ive seen she’s got a great positive ethic and vibe happening so I wish the best for her.
I think that maybe she gets the attention because she's hot first and a shredder second for most people, I don't hear her doing anything mind blowing like Satriani, Yngwie, Vai, or Tony McAlpine did.. but I can say she's good, but even her originals which I've listened to 4 so far, are not much to brag on. Props to her for her accomplishments, in a male dominated arena, Alice Cooper is iconic why? I have never liked his stuff much.. I personally think that you Maxwell are as good if not better than her, hope you land your big name gig soon, at least a G3 style deal..
You've not seen her playing Becker's Altitudes?
@@ivorlongshot I just think she is over rated.. and simply because she is a female playing well mind you. Just not at the level of the attention she is getting. Just my opinion.
Not overrated at all. She can more than hold own with the players you mentioned. She keeps getting gigs because she is excellent, regardless if she is male or female.
She is almost as much a pro model as a rock musician. Yes she is a better player than your average
guitarist but not phenomenal. Her level of playing lead guitar 1975 until 1992 was pretty standard. I find her guitar lessons to be uninterestingly basic. But whatever
sells is what is put out there.
Yep. She's good. Def pro level. But being good looking female who can shred is prob 70% of her success. That's the only reason I took notice of her if I'm being honest
Well you don’t sound insecure do you?
Just came across your channel and subbed, have a very metal day.
Thanks!
Your opinion is as always appreciated. I am waiting to hear the album for myself but I am glad to have your opinion prior to that. Don't knock those videos on $80 guitars and bases, your videos have gotten my grandkids started playing without it costing a bundle to find out if they would stick with it, they did and now have better gear. Yeah I'm close to 70yrs old and I catch all your videos Max. Never to old, gotta shred until we're dead man.
Music doesn't sell. Never did well in the first place, no longer does at all. People "share" it for free now.
So a talented musician growing a name gets to do what actually sells, which is publicity for hard products, things that people cannot download from the Pirate Bay. It's that simple.
Music has never done well for the musicians because the label tends to own the albums and music. Live performances is where it's at or being a hired gun.
I came here hoping to troll a youtuber for being jealous
She is a perfect example of hard work and good luck coming together at the same time. My hat is off to her.
I think she's incredible. And I love you more for making this video
You shouldn’t be jealous..... you’ve got much better hair than she does, hands down!🤘🏼
I bet she spends less time on hers...LOL
Easy one, that. She's blond, kind of easy on the eye, and she plays guitar.
She is a good player though. However if she was a dude with the same ability she'd be no where unless she were in a good band
@@634983 My thoughts, exactly.
@@edcollante no disrespect either. She is at a professional level.
So is orianthi too
@@hattiwattti6951 I might be a little biased, given I'm aussie. But I find Ori to be a (little) better guitar player. She has a good singing voice as well. That being said, yes... a bloke with the same talent would have to struggle much more than her to be noticed.
much respect for you, too, Max!
Thanks!
As you ended your video you said the most important thing - " I'm gonna go practice" ...... And to all aspiring or experienced guitar players that is what ultimately will define you! .....Max - I actually followed ur advice and purchased a Wolf WPRS guitar a month ago ... I only replaced the neck pup with a railhammer chrome chisel and I will tell you this - you were spot on!!!!!! Plays like a dream ...neck is buttery fast and frets rolled off professionaly....thanks for that video u did a little while back.... And I'm on the dark side of 50+ and still practice daily !!!!! With 40 years in!
Awesome!
The thing about The Iron Maiden’s is the other guitarist Courtney Cox is just as good and 100 times hotter then Nita in my opinion
Isnt cortney cox on that show "friends"?
The Cortney Cox from Iron Maiden’s is a red head look her up
@@jeffbradford6411 nice reply bro. You know your shit. Agree.
Sorry Jeff, but I'm sure many others will also disagree with you on that subject. To each his own and as a famous person once said, " beauty is in the eye of the beholder".
@@draganm7823 hey buddy fyi....margaret wolf hungerford coined that quote. 1878. Yeah....she was an author and an (forgive me lord) ugly bitch. Look it up. Ironic.

Definitely.
I didn't seen anyone hating her or being jealous she is definitely a good guitarist and most people don't have time to think about others until they don't have anything to do. Lol
I must be at that .05%
Correction 99.8%
GREAT VID NITA IS MY ALL TIME FAVE GUITARIST
Good job on this Max !
Yea but how good does she sound on an amoon strat? :o lol
That killed!
OK, she's a pretty girl, but tbh, she is average on guitar.
Thanks Max!
Max you impress me more n more
The thing that gets me is, Courtney Cox is a way better guitarist in every way and she doesn’t get half the recognition. Hell, even Nita has stated that Cox is better than her and taught her half the technique she uses now. I have a sneaking suspicion, if Courtney was the tall blonde with big tits, she’d be the one getting the attention .
Not necessarily. Success depends on a lot of things, one of the most important being the team behind the artist.
Being part of a cover band certainly doesn't help either.
Courtney is well endowed
Don't forget the hot black spandex legs and butt.
I'll say this much about Nita Strauss, YES she is quite good on guitar. HOWEVER, I saw her on "That Metal Show", and I have seen her live. Big whoop! Nothing really spectacular going on that other greats have not done LONG before she came along! And yeah she's hot, again so what! Playing fast or shredding on the guitar without taste (which is what she does) is kinda boring! SINCE most people don't listen to music with their ears as much as their eyes, her looks are a bit destracting from what everyone should concentrate on! Of course this is JUST my opinion...
Keyboardist and vocalist is better on guitar in terms of memorable performances. I can remember the guitar parts on House of Sin by Beth Hart, but I can't remember anything from a shredder.
What happened to the blackstar id tvp head in the background ?
I've seen numerous videos of interviews with her..she ALWAYS seems humble and down to earth...the kinda lady you'd love to have a beer with and talk gear!!
Sadly she chose a Neanderthal as a BF.
I really like Nita....she IS a good guitarist and she has progressed.....I AM a big fan BUT there is "something" off with her personality....
I feel that she is getting somewhat of an "attitude" as of late....I could tell just by the way she acted at the GC clinic that I saw her in Pittsburgh recently....
still a nice person but I think ALL the attention is turning her into a Diva......
She's hot the end.
@Dr. Jack Kevorkian Oh yeah totally. 😉 Lol.
@Dr. Jack Kevorkian You must not live in America- because "average" here is 'obese'.
@@goddessintriptych7046 maybe he lives in russia....
Hey, I bought that exact bass because of you and am happier than ever......Thanks!!!
Max you got Nothing to be envious of. Dude you have helped a lot of people with your reviews and teaching. I know it might not be as noticeable as playing with Alice Cooper but it sure means a lot to people. And in my opinion you could out play Nita any day! Peace brother, Rock on!

She's a great guitarist, that can't be disputed. Unfortunately, her "Controlled Chaos" album is what happens when your boyfriend who is also your manager and an average drummer at best, is not only playing but is allowed far too much creative control on the record! There are some stand out moments, no doubt, but it's a mostly uninspiring collection of badly produced, over compressed, horribly mixed and soulless metal clichés.
The drums are quite simply ludicrous, they sound like they've sampled from a $40 beginner's keyboard! I get it, it's obviously not just his "talents" behind a drum kit that got him the gig, but I'm afraid his contribution to record is the crowning travesty of the whole project! As for the low end, well, what low end?! Again, I get that maybe she's not as confident with her bass playing so maybe it wasn't difficult to push it further and further back in the mix. Again though, when the drummer/manager/boyfriend has also got his hands on the mixing desk, the results are going to be predictable!
Am I "jealous"? No, don't be ridiculous. I'm not 15 years old and neither are you so please don't resort to the puerile. Can I "do any better"? No, absolutely not, my guitar playing is complete dogshit compared to hers. And? So what? Again, let's not be children.
I just think that with her obvious talents, range of influences and access to other great musicians, she could have done so much better. More than that, with it being a crowdfunded project, I think she owed something better to that crowd!
Agreed mostly.
I totally agree!
Just listen to her boyfriend speak a couple of sentences. And then you understand why Nita is the main focus.
Not great but good!! I can find around 500 female guitarist on you tube and Reelz that are way better ! She’s a hot blonde so that helps! But ok
Hey, first of all I love your videos it literally hasn't even been a full week from when I first saw you in a GunsNGuitars video and I thought I should check your content and I've watched at least 15 to 20 vids and I just can't help not to wonder what your room and whole collection of gear would look like.
Would you consider making a room tour video showing your gear and all of the instruments? (by the way much love from Greece :))
I think what's most importance is the it and wow factor. It takes an incredible balance of everything. Technic, stage presents, sound, you gotta shine like you are the brightest star in the universe!
She's a fine guitarist, but compare her to the premier young male guitarists and the gap is massive. Jason Richardson, Ichika Nito, Tim Henson, etc. are all far beyond her abilities, younger players too. Yvette Young is the only female who can hang with that crowd.
Why do you have to compare her to anyone? Music isn't a competition
Lokidooki ya man. It’s sad to say but if she didn’t have that look she wouldn’t be known as a soloist the way she is. Not even close to the tops.
Sophie Lloyd is the only young female guitarist who can hang with that crowd. We're talkin' metal.
@@billbyrd5198 check out Tina S. even Herman Li reacted at one of her videos
Sorry man. I listed to the album 3 times. There was absolutely nothing special about it. I think she can play but at the same time she isn't a cut above. I think it's safe to say that she is not raising the bar at all. If it's just that we have to admit that she can play adequately...fine. She can, but I'm not going to give credit where it isn't due. Completely average and let's just be honest.... she's hot and it certainly helps. It's a crutch that other players just don't have.
Altro maschilista
I don't know much about Nita other than a few of the highlights you pointed out. It appears on the surface that she has done a lot of hard work to get where she is today. She's living her dream and that's great for her!!!
It's nice of Max to make a video praising another guitarist, but I was hoping to hear him play. Thumbs up to Max as usual! 👍. Truly a "class act", without acting.
The real question is ..what's the deal with your hair, dude ? Yikes !
Not a fan of hers. I find her boring, dated, and not particularly good relative to her peers. However, I wish her all the success in the world!
That's the key. Hard work, hard work and practice. Her dedication to the craft is inspiring
