      Really cool vid. I had no idea he made that custom design. It sounds like it looks.
      Check my patented fretboard invention 🎸🎶 in fact Kurt often pulled the strings off the fretboard to get feedback FX solos. My design allows this on any string.

    Kurt Cobain wrote some of the best riffs we've ever heard on the guitar, just because he couldn't* do any neoclassical sweep picking doesn't mean he's not a legend, and he deserves just as much respect as Vai, Van Halen or Malmstein

      @jaycue7641 2 года назад +34

      As a songwriter he deserves a lot of credit. As a Guitarist? He was just okay. He knew enough to write the songs he wanted to write. But he won't be revered as having done something revolutionary on the instrument itself. He wrote incredible songs and that's a true accomplishment. Hell, if EVH was the world's greatest guitar player but Van Halen never wrote any good songs that people liked, nobody would know who he was.

      Got a blue one personally. I had wanted one since they originally came out, but they were discontinued before I could afford one, but I was able to get a limited release blue competition Mustang. Unfortunately, some jerk broke into my car one day when I went into the music store to get some strap locks. Thankfully it was covered for theft and days after it was stolen, the Jag Stang was reissued. I had JUST enough to afford it and ultimately got the guitar I had desired for many years by that point…

      Tash Sultana and Tim Henson come to mind but idk, there's so much talent out there rn I feel like it's hard for a singular person to blow up to being household names like the legends we know from pre-music streaming times. There's so much garbage music to sift through yet the music world is so saturated, the talent is there but it's hiding because so much is already in or battling for the spotlight.

    • @chillscosby
      @chillscosby 2 года назад

      The names I dropped may not qualify as revolutionary tho I suppose. But in my bubble, they're some of the best at what they do.
      Also, Tool I think deserves a shout-out. I'll admit I'm not enough of a music history and theory nerd to think I know who qualifies, but I do love to nerd out and have been a music enthusiastic (and musician) my entire life. Fwiw..
