2:17 The Price of Everything and The Value of Nothing
2:59 Modern Meat
I love how Tosin's melodies have little melodies inside of them. What beautiful music
The guy asking Tosin questions levelled up several times...
SuperCharleh wonder how many times he's explained his slap technique now. people need to realize also his thumb is inhuman it literally looks like it bends 90 degrees in the wrong direction. I can play this technique mainly because I play bass as well but it doesn't quite sound like tosin. also don't think he liked the guitar a lot it seemed to fight him a little but cool looking. may have just been the setup.
James Melton the technique started on bass with victor wooten
@@brandonstollar6827 And he learned it from Reggie
the couple aguring in the back omg
Noah East bahahaha im dying!!!! "we are SUPPOSSED TO BE RELAXING!!!!!!"
ruclips.net/channel/UCA1r-HPy2t7X9CMvZnZQFRw
It's not a couple arguing, it's just his new technique for adding vocals to guitar.
It was caused by Tosin playing 😈😈😈
Tosin Abasi is the only guy I know who can look badass in a fedora.
Richie Kotzen and him are probably the best guitar players who wear the weirdest clothes and look the coolest in them, haha.
+derek, i tried one on in walmart, and it was a fail. haha. your right, u have to have the amazing suit with the guitar with no finish.
Synyster gates?
Corey taylor
Are you kidding? Fedoras are pure class; always have been.
3:06
"get my pick off the floor im about to use it"
"yes master"
0:36 "I love you, you know that." so random lol
wow good ear...
Cheesy Cola fucken aye ! Fur reals! Good ear.
God bless the guy who picked up that pick.
I'm confident that that's the best sweep picking I have and will ever have seen in my life.
I'd love to hear a straight jazz album from Tosin
a lot from the first album is jazz related, just because it doesn’t have a clean tone on it doesn’t mean it can’t be jazz. songs like modern meat and tessitura are cleaner though
T.R.A.M.
his manipulation of the fretboard and sweep picking, even WITHOUT a pic is unbelievable
actually he had one 2:57
corrected it for ya
its ok, he's no jason becker tho
@@mrmisterman999 Jason Becker has influenced about 90% of the modern prog players if you ask me. Look how much Japanese scales are used nowadays. All thanks to Cacophony. As for me, if someone asks the band that changed my playing style completely, it'll be Cacophony.
If I met him, on arrival, I would immediately drop to my knees in pure joy. That man is one of the reasons I play guitar. I swore to myself that I would be able to play like him one day.
Can you play like him yet?
How about now?
Lole no but I got really big into jazz fusion so that's cool I guess
This guy never ceases to inspire me and depress me at the same time.
0:36 "i love you you know that" there's a couple fighting off camera
Slippery Dad "...but Tosin, is like other kind of love" 😂.
"This is supposed to be relaxing."
The hat matches the guitar. Tosin's always been very careful about clothing.
the best part is that he plays this with a clean tone! and it sounds freaking amazing!
00:37 - "I love you." yo wtf
Does anyone else wish that there were more videos of Tosin just fucking around on guitar to watch? These could entertain me for hours.
Being as technically talented as Tosin is, I can imagine most people becoming completely big headed and turn into complete arseholes... but Tosin seems really humble & friendly, which is just great to see. One of my very favourite musicians. :)
I don't really like Animals As Leaders...but I have so much respect for this guy as a guitarist. He is seriously at the point were playing guitar is really just a walk in the park. He's ridiculously good.
his playing is so clean! :O
and incredibly melodic and emotional! :D
Brilliant playing as usual/expected, I must say the guitar is stunning!
This made me put down my guitar...
He's so fucking talented.
And the way he plays with his fingers on the strings with both hands... WOW!
It's a bass guitar technique developed by Victor Wooten that Tosin has applied to his 7 and 8-string guitar playing. You slap the Lowest E string and pick with your thumb. It really weird and awkward at first, but with time, you get used to it and you can develop speed like Tosin has. You can tell he's been working on it for quite some time, years I imagine, just by looking at the way he arches his thumb when playing. The opening riff and lots of "An Infinite Regression" uses the technique.
the guitar sounds amazing super clear and Tosin is amazing ofc
@495Music he was playing 2 string arpeggios across the neck. From what I see alot of Abasi's playing is arpeggio based
2:44 - 2:48 is nuts. Can anyone offer some insight on to what that riff is?
+bubsadoozy i think i've heard something like that in every generic nes game
+hateofgod666 Now that you mention it I do hear similarities to that Mario hitting the flag pole theme.
Sounds like he's playing a major triad and then moving it up by whole steps and then adds the #11 at the end. I could be wrong though. Haven't tried to play it.
yeah if you move up semi tones of the same exact phrase it sounds like something out of an NES game.
it's pretty simple, just play a triad and move it up a half step over and over and it will have this weird kind of sound that makes u think of nintendo.
imagine taking lessons from such a cool dude. incredible!
@BashYouLongtime That tapping at :15 is from Tempting Time. 2:00 is from Song of Solomon. A lot of the finger picking around 3:00 is from Modern Meat.
wow...I got no words for Tosin and his teqnique..the Strandberg is like a toy in his hulkhands..
im speechless
at first I was like "where the hell is the head stock?" And then I was like "WHERE THE FUCK IS THE HEADSTOCK?"
@495Music The tapping at the start is 'Tempting Time' by Animals As Leaders
Godin has been playing guitar for well over 10 years...he's by no means a bassist, guys. He's just one of the most advanced guitarists in the world.
Tosin?
Tyler Roerick I think he means God+Tosin= Godin
Awer Tyuiop That makes so much sense!
I have a Godin, great Canadian made instruments
That guitar sounds so full and balanced.
I'd love to see Tosin abasi plays on Strandberg live...
This guy is fantastic, i mean his technique, style and skill is unique. As for playing fast shred, damm he is fast and alot faster than the typical metal head shredder but at the same time he makes it look effortless and not even to ever have to hide behind distortion although he does use on and off during his solos, but flip he is a real guitar extraordinaire
His fingers are pure magic.
We will heard about him in 100 years for sure.
@hardyrulez96 I think the tuners are on the underside of where the neck ends. I'm just taking a wild guess though, I really have no idea either
this guy must have been a 10 hour a day player like steve vai he's bloody amazin i love the note ranges he uses
Tosin sounds so good on the Strandberg.
I would love to just have a whole album of just Tosin's doodles.
Tosin is mindblowing.
Damn..... How is his tapping so precise and powerful?! What the hell?
8 years later still wondering
@Rockyroopam Yeah man its in Behaving Badly, thanks & happy new year!
obviously tosin is so fun to watch, but for real that guitar sounds very clean, very smooth. i like :D
What you did at the beginning with displacing tempting time down an octave you could do up an octave in all 4ths tuning.
I fucking love Tosin. His guitar work is sublime....
awesome palyer
0:37 - I love you, you know that?
Yes...we all love Tosin.
I just bought this guitar!!
@DuralastTurbo
No, it isn't a gimmick at all. Have you researched why they fan frets? It's actually for a very functional (and to many, superior) purpose. The thicker the string the longer the scale needs to be for proper tension. This is why bass guitars are 30-34 inch scales and guitars are 24-25.5. When you build 7 and 8 string guitars, on a short scale, the thicker strings are too sloppy. In a fan fret system the tension is proper all the way around and surprisingly, it's comfortable.
Those have to be the most beautiful sounding pickups ever.
@DuralastTurbo he is getting one. hes having a custom strandberg 8 string being built as we speak
I can only imagine all the people who went to NAMM to see the same fenders and gibsons of the last 40 years, watch somebody like Tosin play a headless guitar with more than 6 strings, and fanned frets.
Tosin is a miracle and a holy blessing.
Its a mircle that Tosin has reached angle bard status. Angle bards specialize in music. They create such amazing music that only angles them selfs can hear.
But Tosin earned the right of angle bard status. He defeated god in a guitar
Haven't heard him play bass, but i already know that he's mastering it.
Now this guy have a power in his hand.
Tosin is awesome!
Best part about this. He's just shooting the shit with a fan while doing this. Cool points +3
@BashYouLongtime Yes. He's put some excerpts from songs in there.
Tosin is in a side Jazz project called T.R.A.M.
Loads of ideas that would be cool to hear in another semi-solo album, would be a good idea after the aal live album! :D
SUCH CLASS.
I don't know why I found it so hilarious when that guy picked up his pick at 3:07. :D
@tappman85 Seems to be about 21 usable frets. There is 23 but the last 2 are FAR too small to be use. It scale length is the thing that is off putting.
I love it as well, it just shows a profound respect. He didn't run off, he didn't make a big deal, he just gave him the pick back, putting it where it was.
Now that I think about it, I'm laughing as well.
tosin is the future of guitar playing, and strandberg is the future of guitars
Holy shit...this guy is for real. Master.
7 strings guitar... he must have felt naked.
Seriously, still haven't fathom the double thumping technique. I've watched videos but I still feel helpless.
Tosin give me your strength.
(P.S: I really dig your guitars, especially this model , what a gem)
I like his rhythmic style
amazing technique------------
That's a wonderfull axe Ola!
@hardyrulez96 pretty sure you tune it at the bridge, like a floyd rose.
Let's change the word 'innovation' to Tosin.
So much class.
holy shit he looks like robert johnson
Holy shit he does
And Wes Montgomery without the hat.
I like Tosin best when he plays through a clean setting. Anybody else feel that way?
Yeah, me too. :)
1:23, that's a trick he got from Victor Wooten, and he's applying it to the 8-string, so genius.
Can we all just take a moment to appreciate how classy Tosin looks ALL THE TIME! I bet he made the rest of name feel utterly inadequate...
Tosin has to be one of the more academic musicians of today. He can explain technique and scales etc on the fly, almost off the top his head lol
What is the scale of that guitar? It could be the lack of headstock, but it seems short
@cazmaestro it would have been awkward if the pick fell again lol.
do i pick it up again, or...........
Man! Can this guy play....yet to put it on record, in my opinion. Looking forward to that day!
I Touched That Hand... and as we met eyes, my soul was absorbed into an abyss of heavenly solitude... Tosin is the fucking man, and I recommend all of you see him live and buy his albums... Nay! I demand it!!! (least the album..)
BWT
god i need a tab book for all the AAL songs. i shall master them.
I love the fact that Victor Wooten is one of the suggestions! :D
I was saying the same thing... the way he playing..the style that he uses. He a bass player.
is he plugged into any kind of fx? kind of pedal? Sounds beautiful
reverb
AnguzBeef It sounds like he is plugged into a Axe Fx 2
@facemash Thank you so much.
matching your guitar and hat. swag.
1:37 is totally from some AAL song but I can't place it. Anyone know?
It's from the song To Lead You to An Overwhelming Question
Great, thanks!
One of the few times you see him play something from that song. I tabbed it out. For anyone wondering, on a 7 string, you play back and forth between 7th fret on the 6th string and 12 on the 7th string, then for the descending part you play 8 on the 4th string, 10 on the 6th string, 7th on the 5th string, and 6th on the 6th string. All groups of 5(hammer on, thumb up and down, index, middle).
Tosin looks like that badass guy in the park reading the news
Love that Freakin guitar! Such a good look!
Too good!
@facemash Yez., but do you have the names? I know the one that he starts off on that fast pretty chord picking...but the others, like with the kickass tapping. :Q___ know 'em?
Tosin Abasi = Playing guitar like a badass sir!!! :D
Thumbs up for Tosin's thumb
YEAAASS, i would be so sad cuz that guitar has such a beautiful sound. Especially live!
@MrMrkun It's not exactly the same, but his songs earth departure and "an infinite regression" utilize those techniques. It's pretty awesome :)
