Amazing to see someone so into jazz personally really isn't active in any other project than Avenged Sevenfold. Can't he do a solo album sometime? I'd like to hear him jazzing
He said in an interview one time that he originally intended to be a jazz studio guitarist and was going to school for that, but dropped out to be in Avenged!
TheFerrarifan18 Yeah he was in G.I.T or something. He said that Rev convinced him to play in the band and he needed to adapt his style for metal afterwards.
Eduardo Yanez Yeah but the song's like a power metal-metalcore mixup. I'm not saying he doesn't add some jazz to A7X, i'm saying he's not involved in jazz projects.
Cure Persa Metal doesnt require screaming to be metal. Majority of their work is metal, exception of Hail to the King, which falls more into hard rock.
@@magnumsatchel8665I agree with everything you said apart from the Hail to the King is not Metal bit. It's Metal. Very cookie cutter and straight forward (with the exception of some on Syns licks) but still Metal none the less.
Syn has played some good solos in A7X but this shows his flexibility and shows how good of a musician he actually is. I don't think A7X holds him back but the stuff he plays here is better than some of his solos with A7X. I hope he makes a solo album eventually
+Cory Tweed He's playing a Synyster Special. I believe it's a prototype version as the fonts on the headstock is different from the production models. Plus the production models doesn't come with the Sustainiac. Only his does.
I love that Synyster Gates is just gelling in his solos over this sweet melodic jazz tune. It doesn't surprise me though. Syn mixes alot of jazz and classical notes when he's playing.
I would have like to seen them switch guitars so I could see what kind of damage Syn would have done on that Fender (by the way, I hate saying Syn, but if I said Brian Haner Jr. people'd be like "...who dafuq is that?").
This guy is good, though he just played metal, kinda a7x style but now i realize i was wrong... Im not a such big fan of his band but watching this i could see that synyster is a great guitar player...
These cats are grooving on a laid back jazzy groove and he seems lost. If it wasn't for distortion and the same little scale runs back and forth what's the purpose. Most good players don't rely on distortion and can switch up styles. But maybe I am missing something here. That's cool.
***** I just wanted to make clear why his dad is there as well. Just wanted to introduce it that way. I presented it in a way to make it clear that there is a father/daughter relationship in the class. It could've been his sister from his mothers side therefore Brian Haner could not be the dad considering that there has been a divorce long ago.
I read the description, then the comments, and was disappointed. You'd have to be real stupid to not point the camera at Brian Haner Sr. Syn might be great, but Papa has been a real deal, you don't just ignore such a musician.
Allow me to focus on Synyster while his dad plays an Awesome Riff.
serio
Awesome watching and hearing Papa and Syn jamming together again. So cool to watch them play.
It's kinda sad that Papa Gates didn't get to shine in the camera while delivering a fire solo

Eduardo Yanez His style in CIty of Evil and now is quite different actually. I like him better now, much more neo-classic and jazz influenced.
Eduardo Yanez Yeah but the song's like a power metal-metalcore mixup.
I'm not saying he doesn't add some jazz to A7X, i'm saying he's not involved in jazz projects.
check their new album. has some cool jazz influences
Papa gates fucking tore it up! Syn looked a little uncomfortable at first but once he hit his groove he sounded phenomenal too! Awesome video
WOAH HE SHREDDED LIKE CRAZY DAMN!!!
At first I was not happy wit the tone I guess
Deff my fav guitarist today.
Its been 6 years, is he still your favorite guitarist?
@@jphininzy9058 yes even more with the Stage
🐐
still yo fav guitarist?
@@synyster6448 even more with the new single Nobody's solo!
Hmmm ... the only time his guitar-playing sounds like mine was that bit at 4:38 to 5:05 where he was struggling to get it tuned.
MartinInBC literally the best comment on here 😂😂😂😂 amazing.
@@septimersiahaan7202 gaje tolol
It's awesome to see how Syn can play many music styles even though he's in a metal band. That's the way uh-uh uh-uh I like it
David Lamothe Rock not metal. Matt doesn't scream anymore. more melodic
Cure Persa Metal doesnt require screaming to be metal. Majority of their work is metal, exception of Hail to the King, which falls more into hard rock.
@@magnumsatchel8665 HTTK is definitely metal
@@magnumsatchel8665I agree with everything you said apart from the Hail to the King is not Metal bit. It's Metal. Very cookie cutter and straight forward (with the exception of some on Syns licks) but still Metal none the less.
dad and son, soo perfect!
I think the band was insane when the rev was alive. The 2008 long beach California was insane.
+Dhruv Srikanth only the luckiest people on earth was there..
True. That is my favorite live show
+DankRaptor it was a hell of a show to be at :)
I was at the long beach show and it was fucking insane. I was in the pit right in front of zackys side of the stage
They grew up in Huntington Beach near my uncle. So jealous lol
I knew Papa Gates plays so good, but never imagined that great!!!
Thats synyster gates not papa gates
I started playing guitar because of Syn... I KNOW WHO THE FUCK IS HIM! But there's his father, known as Papa Gates, playing with him...
Papa gates is on the left, to bad they didnt record him shred!
Synyster gates is a true soldier!
His dad is a highly skilled session Guitarist.. How good you say? He played for Frank Zappa
That's a pretty cool name to have on a resume!!!! I'm impressed!!!
you know youre a God when you detuned a Floyd rose from simply playing it
As a man who owns one I couldn’t agree more
It wasn't in tune to begin with. I tune once a week. Syn shouldn't have to check but, he should just to be safe.
I have an Ibanez so I tune 6 times a day
I have a fake sg and a Dean custom with floyd
I probably tune them every two months
new strings ?
5:23 Holy shit , still impressed with Papa Gates, some one knows that funky lick?
Papa gates is looking so proud
Now I see where synister gets it, his dad shreds like a bada$$ to XD
Dude I like how they do this for people this is how you give back to the community I just wish they'd go around more places
Muy talentoso, excelente improvisación de jazz/metal
Props to the girl playing drums! Good taste and good use of dynamics! Also I have the same drum shells! Yamaha Tour Custom hell yeah!!!
That's a guy
no its not, its a girl
Damn that girl play her ass off on the drums!
I can literally watch this a million times
That was badass!!!! Thank you SO MUCH for sharing this with us!!
Syn has played some good solos in A7X but this shows his flexibility and shows how good of a musician he actually is. I don't think A7X holds him back but the stuff he plays here is better than some of his solos with A7X. I hope he makes a solo album eventually
I’ve never seen him use a syn deluxe before. That’s awesome!
Syn special actually. I know cuz i have one lol
this is he first time ive seen synyster use his schecter synyser special guitar.
Kyla England yeah, me too, which is cool because I have one!!
3 words = ETERNAL EPIC LEGEND
Damn, Papa Gates tore the audience a new one :D
Phenomenal!
I'm dying here for watching Brian Haner Jr. perfectness
God dam it. Why didn't you zoom to the dad when he was shredding.
Ikr lol
Papa Gates its a great musicean !
Musicean hahaha
Sanchan His dad is amazing :D
RIGHT?!!!
Still listening in September of 2020
Finally a video with them jamming together ... so cute!
man syn is the best guitarist Ihve ever knwn i jst loved his solos
I can’t believe the camera man missed papa gates righteous riffs! Would have been great to see
I am so impressed my lord. I cant even right now.
Why didn't you record Syn's dad shredding?!?
I forgot how good this guy really is
0:14 always that one guy at an event that thinks he's funny but he's not
*****he is funny :D it was cheering for ´his idol so why not doing it :D
Mettys Moba yes .. right 👍
Caltack8 seems like an freaky man hahaa.. If he thought he was a big fan.. He surely not like animal like that hahaha...
You would film papa at him solo.
Syn and papa Gates wow The best playing Guitar 😎
0:10: *person in audience moans loudly*
Syn: “the fuck was that”
Wow very mpressive mr. G this is why u are my ultimate favorite guitarist...other than dimebag R.I.P.
WHY CAN'T FAMOUS GUITARISTS TEACH CLASSES AT MY SCHOOL?!?!?!
+Sebastian floyd You should go get famous then go back to your school :)
Lucas Weiman Guitar I think I just might!
Sebastian floyd BECAUSE THEY ARE FAMOUS
+Cory Tweed
He's playing a Synyster Special. I believe it's a prototype version as the fonts on the headstock is different from the production models. Plus the production models doesn't come with the Sustainiac. Only his does.
He made the guitar and then fitted the sustainiac after that
4:50 is why I won't buy the cheaper version of syns guitar!
Papa Gates is amazing! OH WAIT! It's actually Syn still in the camera...
That's a proud dad
0:11
AHHHHH
I LOVE YOU
Very cool and I hope that the next day
I love that Synyster Gates is just gelling in his solos over this sweet melodic jazz tune. It doesn't surprise me though. Syn mixes alot of jazz and classical notes when he's playing.
Would it have killed you to point the camera at me for 10 seconds, Sciuto?
:v
I was devastated when you started shredding and the cameraman didn't even flinch :O
I want a battle between you and jr
Whoa! You're so lucky!!!
Amazing syn 🔥🔥
I wish papa gates was more of a musician than a comedian, that way there would be more clips of him just playing
papa gates did better than gates and the camera guy doesn't point the camera at him :(
it's better not watching. dope jam.
love this Guy.awesome gates!!!
The floyd rose struggle at the end 😭😭
I would have like to seen them switch guitars so I could see what kind of damage Syn would have done on that Fender (by the way, I hate saying Syn, but if I said Brian Haner Jr. people'd be like "...who dafuq is that?").
True lol I would've known
You can say he's obsessed with Schecter, but I can't blame him.
+Deavon Strode all the band is obsessed with schecter. Actually Syn, Zacky and Johnny has schecter's instruments.
TheSamuraiApocalypse he cant do it on the public show..an endorsement contract restriction
Only of they weren't true fans
Nice smooth jazz.. And shred techniques!!
Cant believe anyone can improve this kinda stuff
This guy is good, though he just played metal, kinda a7x style but now i realize i was wrong... Im not a such big fan of his band but watching this i could see that synyster is a great guitar player...
Hardly metal. There’s only a small few portions where it’s in a metal style. It’s a lot of progressive rock, jazz fusion, and blues.
I think I made up most of the views BECAUSE I CANT STOP LISTENING TO THIS!!!
For improvising this was pretty good
This is so much better than where a7x is going
Jesus Christ they're both so damn good
I love October.
...well then guitar guy... Fuck yeah!!!
papa and son love it
He is amazing!!
aaaaaaa i love synyster gates
"UuHHh i LoVE YOU" same dude same
wait, dude, I want to see more of papa gates
chill asf
Got any more video's from this?
Syn & papa gates..
AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
righteous!! love u Syn!!
Like father like son

I like brather... 💕
*play testing* OOOHHH! I LOVE YOU!
His dad shreds!! Whoa!
UUGGGGGHHHHHH!!! I LOVE YOU!!!
First one here after LIBAD 👀🤘
I bet Syn can make a girl squirt lakes with those fingers lololololol. Dude is a legend
damn cool father and son!
felt like syn was too distracted with the marshall and sustainiac to actually play his ass off, it happens sometimes.
like father....like son
hey please come back my gmail!!!
since when does syn go to schools for master classes
Syns dad has a daughter who goes to a music school and his dad teaches there as well. I guess he got his son to make a guest appearance.
Joseph Walsh lessons from syn would be even more awesome, id pay him hundreds an hour lol
***** half

Papa Gates is the real deal.
Freaking Epic!
That was so good 3 _ 3
Oh Shit! your school is very lucky
Awesome
amazing..
#synyster gatez lover
He killed the guy who screamed earlier
i'am fans you syn 😢
I read the description, then the comments, and was disappointed. You'd have to be real stupid to not point the camera at Brian Haner Sr. Syn might be great, but Papa has been a real deal, you don't just ignore such a musician.
Where does he usually hold these classes?
Is it in one particular place, or he goes to different places?
Guitar center
YellowCharizar d where? lol
guitar center. do you not know what that is?idk the exact location
YellowCharizar d no, I don't, that's why I'm asking lol XD
Thanks anyways :p

Damn didn't know his pops could shred too>
Tal pai, tal filho!
