Indie Kid with a twist. I believe drive when used right clocks the song and a solo when needed makes the song a million times better. Btw use Vox amps! Nothing beats a Vox
I spent 2 hours passionately explaining the theory behind the jazzy chords I used in a song to my brother who plays drums... And then we went full on chunka chunka and played some Slipknot together.
You can also identify the boomer guitarist by their high level of skill combined with the ability to write actual melodies. I think the Artificial Modern and Fusion players are highly skilled but everything sounds like a practice exercise and not a song. At any rate, I enjoyed the list. All in fun.
6-string Standard tuning 70s & 80s Metal and Punk Mostly power chords with ripping solos BC Rich, Charvel, Ibanez. Peavey & Crate Amps I use amps and sometimes a processor pedal. No effect except for a Wah. Only High Gain. Never clean sounds Hairline is gone so hair is no longer long but not bald either Never got into drinking or drugs So...... not really completely any of them
@@IronValorantClips we all have our issues 😂 just kidding. Honest opinion, it's good to know where you, where you want to lead to and how to get there. After all that's all what matters
I consider myself a sludge player. Detuned, heavy riffs, dissonant chords, lots of distortion, somber melodies, bends, slides, and trills. Fuzz. Too slow to play metal. Too dirty and chunky and play with oodles of delay and reverb. Solos are more simple melodies with heavy sounding sustained notes. Tempo is a suggestion. The rhythm is guided by the voices in my head.
@@TonisGuitarHangout Alice in Chains, Ministry, Deftones, White Zombie, Pantera.. that's kinda where I look to hang my hat with guitar, not really Boomer stuff you know, not really indie, not all out Metal, but a mix of blues, metal, industrial, heavy punishing riffs
Cool video, I have always been the square peg trying to fit in. True influential guitarists for me is very long and a wide spectrum. Toni Iommi, Alex Lifeson, Pat Metheny, Joe Satriani, Jimi Hendrix, Gary Moore, Ritchie Blackmore, Eddie Van Halen, Devin Townsend, Jason Becker, Marty Friedmen, Eric Johnson, Randy Rhoads, Chris Impellitteri, David Gilmour, Jeff Beck, Neal Schon, Carlos Santana, Steve Howe, Steve Lukather, Robert Fripp, etc.!
Well i have a Jaguar with lots of switches, and a reverb pedal coming in the mail today. I may have fallen asleep last night thinking about alternate chord choices in relation to open strings.
I'd probably call myself indie player by these standards. Had a boomer rocker teacher that I didn't mesh well with because I was more late steely dan and yacht rock in my teen years than floyd and zeppelin, both of whom I never have and still have negligible interest in (Gilmour live in Pompeii is top 10 but thats the exception). Got a new teacher that played in a local alt band that I actually like and it made a world of difference. Very into black metal and shoegaze currently. I have an appreciation for insanely well phrased solos but I don't find myself practicing soloing that much, mostly super chordy stuff reminiscent of "Aja" and Brook Benton.
I don't see myself as any of these (but I recognise the types, for sure). Now I'm having an existential crisis; do I just sell my guitars, or pick one of the types (yeah, no, not the boomer) and go for it?
Indie kid with a twist. Overdrive, fuzz, a chorus and a multi delay unit. Into an AC 15(wish it was an AC30). If I need to be loud I’ll get loud. Solos will be awesome in the right context. I prefer to use arppegios and slides, a bend if needed. I’m an indie kid who loves other types of music more than actual indie lol
Great video? Is the mic in some kind of stereo setting? Every time you say like "Both" or really accentuate one letter i can hear it passing from one hear to another!
I'm definitely a boomer rocker for solos and depending on what the song calls for Indi Kid most of the time and a punk rocker sometimes (For rhythm only for obvious reasons) Yeah
I think Guthrie and Matthias Eklundh would probably stereotypically in the "sophisticated fusion" category but I think they're just in the category of "the guitar is an extension of their body".
Well, I'm happy to be kind of a fusion between the indie kid, the boomer rocker (though I'm 16) and the sophisticated. Because my playing style is right in between, but I got the guitar and amp preference of a boomer, the indie dressing, but I'm really into studying music theory.
List is accurate. I'm the boomer rocker with some strong opinions, but aspirations towards sophisticated fusion. Unfortunately, I lack the ability... 😕
So where does a guy who is influences from range from Alex Lifeson to Johnny Marr? I share some elements of the indie kid, punk rocker and boomer rocker. My three favorite main guitars are a Les Paul, Jazzmaster, and a Yamaha Pacifica (HSS Strat).
Thanks for diagnosing me with guitar DID! I always switch between the boomer rocker, the artificial modern, the sophisticated fusion and the chunka chunka. I dress and talk like a sophisticated fusion when talking professionally about music but use lots of boomer rocker profanities. I switch personas based on rig. I like throwing in some sophisticated fusion sometimes in both melody and harmony but I instantly become chunka chunka whenever you give me something tuned lower than drop C and an instant boomer rocker when given a Les Paul, yeg my main guitar will much more resemble an artificial modern. I don't like logging around heavy amps but like a boomer rocker I can't live without tubes. I produce and program music at home like an artificial modern, but as time went along lots of it tends to also align with boomer rocker stuff or chunka chunka. Context: guitar preference is always Ibanez no matter the situation, but at the same time doesn't matter what Ibanez. Amp of choice... my Friedman IRX is the perfect middle ground between all my different personalities
I’m a chanka chanka I do like low tunings but I love experimenting with every tuning the farthest I’ll go with strings is 8 strings but I like more of the melodic stuff
Im an oddity, I guess. I have 7 guitars and 3 amps. A Jackson JS32 DKY, a Samick SV60, a PRS SE Custom 24, Epiphone MKH Les Paul, A Michael Kelly Patriot Instinct Bold Custom, a Donner Tele style guitar and a Kieth Urban Acoustic guitar. The Amps are a Soldano SLO Mini running into a 1x12 with a Eminence DV-77, an Orange Micro Terror going into a 2x12 EVH cab and a Fender Frontman 20G with a Jensen C8R speaker. What kind am I, sir? 😂😂
Im something between indie and punk rocker, I like more or less gain and full chords and power chords depending on the song :D The better guitarist in the band is fusion chunka boomer style. For some reason it works XD We should add some artificial modern stuff I m planning in some new songs. You forgot about blues/folk/classical/reggae/ska - which could be 1 or 2 categories. And psychedelic/post rock or guitarists that use effects a lot. I guess 10 types could cover all players in the world.
Actually, I love your analysis. Lots of truth there. The 7th category: Guys who play melodies (and counter melodies) that support and intensify the vibe of the tune. Guitar preference: Stratocaster Amp preference: Mesa Boogie. Effects: Amp reverb (modest). Digital delay (slight). No tone effects boxes. Live performance example: ruclips.net/video/i38qD81XPPI/видео.html
>Any sweep is a rebellion against these old-school fash(ion)ists That's why I laugh at them in Jason Becker. Heck, Yngwie *kind of* had a thing for them, one could say... Glad my guitarist type wasn't on the list, tbh.
Literally all the eighties guitar heroes were fond of sweeps, I think (no offense) this guy was pretty inaccurate on the artificial modern ones. Disjointed riffs that move a lot on the neck, harmonics, 8 fingers tapping, and thumping are more distinct techniques from them.
While I'm into metal and like a heavy crunch distortion, I like to keep my guitar in standard E A D G B E tuning. So im not a chunka chunka. I love listening to guitar solos, even though my lead guitar skills aren't very good, and the thought of a guitarist hating guitar solos makes me angry. Songs awash with solos like Hangar 18 by Megadeth and Stars by Hear n' Aid give me an eargasm.
Toni you're old? You don't even have grey hair man. But let me add the 7th player. Me. I don't care what era of music it is. Ive been playing 39 years now and if it's good I will listen to it as well as play it, and I don't snub my nose to people like all these others do. I was raised in the 70's and I was taught that all music as long as it sounds good is good. You are no better than anyone else and all this group shit has only torn humanity apart. Music was meant to bring us together. It makes me wonder if there really ever was evolution in the sense of people becoming less of snobs.
@@DreidMusicalX color my hair and Botox is working pretty well, thanks and calling me a snob makes you not less of a snob. Btw. If you watch and listen carefully you might hear a slight voice that whispers: satirically

Im an outcast...... - i mostly use offsets like the indie kid and have a mile of analog pedals on my live rig...i have a tele too - i like the aesthetic, bombastic solos, and marshall tone of the boomer and share a lot of inflences musically - i have more liberal social politics and use modeling most of the time like the next category - all of the above is done on a shoestring budget like an oldschool punk..i have some rather f***ed up guitars I like to use as well -fusion peeps like their sus2 and add9 chords...lots of arpeggios and scale stuff...do that too -but i also do the chunka chunka thing as well...... But I draw the ire of all of em....in some way. So much for labels and categories I guess XD
What category is James Hetfield ? Riffing while singing and using a lot of heavy downpicking ? I think im in the category of the "frontman guitarist" . Defenitely this category exists and many guitarists belong in it .
@@TonisGuitarHangout You're doing a great job overall! Maybe just slow down your speech a little bit so it's easier to articulate the words more clearly. Good luck and keep it up!
How could you not add the 5150 to the chunka chunka player?! Thats literally their most common (yes I know its preamp section is the SLO, its the PA were the magic happens)
I'm 50, & the only category that comes close is Boomer Rocker, though I absolutely do NOT look like one. Yngwie IS GOD (well, one of the Aesir at least) & I adore shreddy soloing. The drugs hold zero interest however. All this aside though, that's only 50% of me, as the other side is a Classical guitar vampire who was an audience member for Fernando Sor & Mauro Giuliani. We (this type of guitarist) are refined, theory-head, classical, acoustic players, with perfect pitch, long nails on one hand, an extravagant style of dress & mostly disdain for the century we find ourselves in.
I really don’t fit into any of these. I guess boomer because I grew up and started playing in the 80’s, but I don’t tap unless I’m doing a song that has it in it, and I can play any type of music, from Bluegrass to Neoclassical. I also prefer Randy Rhoads over VanHalen. I’m not a big Eddie fan at all. I don’t like Floyd Rose tremolo’s either. I don’t know what I am!!!!
I'm trying to decide if I'm a Chunka invading Boomer's space at times, or a Boomer playing "peekaboo" with Chunka boys and girls!!!!! Hmmm!!!!! So interesting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I also prefer Randy Rhoads over VanHalen. I’m not a big Eddie fan at all. I don’t like Floyd Rose tremolo’s either. I don’t know what I am!!!!
I'm trying to decide if I'm a Chunka invading Boomer's space at times, or a Boomer playing "peekaboo" with Chunka boys and girls!!!!! Hmmm!!!!! So interesting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m a mix between the artificial modern player and the chunka chunka 😂
