People talk trash about him sometimes. But I went to a signing and he was there until EVERY fan with albums and memorabilia had gotten their things autographed and got to meet him. Yngwie is very gracious and respectful to his fans. I was impressed by how decent he was.
Yeah, but my amp goes to eleven, that's just one louder. I mean, when you're already at 10 and you want to go louder, there's no where higher to go, unless your knobs go to 11.
size 8 strings to 46? eddie van hallen uses 9s to 42 and every other string is coded and not nickle wound coded zack wylde uses 11-56 on tuned down les pauls
bet you it costed the same f my Mamasteen Chinese relic with the scaloped neck with shrimp pickguard., gonna smash it on a Slash signature Amplitube amp too (on a iphone 3) !
I don’t listen to Yngwie all that much, but he’s a blast to see live. He had the wall last time, but I’m pretty sure only two heads and cabs were actually off standby.
years ago, around 2002, I saw him at the Astoria in London, and his babysitter for Antonio just disappeared.. my other half at the time was left to look after him.. she picked him up and was putting coins in the jackpot slot machines for him to play on.. Inga, Yngwies aunt, came and saw that we were looking after him, gave us 50 quid for a cab home, and I got to meet Yngwie. I have to say, he got to see me play one of his guitars, and was very complimentary, we chatted for a good 30 minutes or more, until the venue had to kick him out. say what you like about him, he is a very humble, down to earth guy, but he has an unshakeable resolve and determination and self belief. I've seen this before with high ranking management and successful people from all walks of life. he really does love playing guitar, but more importantly, he was a really great guy that night. I was a fan before, I got to tell him what his playing meant to me, and I came away feeling that I'd met one of my guitar heroes and all was good. It's a shame instrumental rock guitar, and shred guitar has that competitive bitchy-ness about it, I'm sure Yngwie gets affect by the negative press just as much as anyone else would..
YJM’s life on 10. More is more. Rush thought with More is more too. Guitar legend. Want to see him in an interview with his family someday though....”this is the Yngwie J Malmsteen signature child along with my signature wife. My signature wife and I worked very hard to get the signature child just right down to the individual hairs and everything.” Sweetwater - how old is he? YJM - “ he is on 10 like my amps and pedals”
Yeah. I don't remember a version of Yngwie that is personable or has a sense of humor. Great little rig tour! Wish he would have played a little. Curious what his current rig sounds like. Tons of videos of him playing on youtube. But they tend to be quite old.
to be fair if he had played with all those 100w Marshalls, with everything on ten then that poor interviewer would have been killed from the sheer volume, Yngwie has built up a tolerance to it over the years like with snake bites.
@@hollywoodactress idk if you have since youve commented this but watch his right hand in his live show in the 80s its insane his picking hand moves so minimally and just fluid its like magic
This reminded me the Armin Amzarian episode of the Simpsons: -"This is Armin's apartment, Armin's liquor, Armin's copy of swank... Armin's frozen peas" -This is the YM Fender Stratocaster, the YM strap, Malmsteen's strings, Yngwie Malmsteen overdrive pedal...and so on.
Malmsteen is awesome doing it his own way! Good on him, a true talent on guitar amazing songs that only he could write in this style. Great to see the wall of Marshalls
the moog/bass,taurus pedals like old hammond organ guys used..like geddy uses when playing keys..yngwie uses them to make a droning note while he solos over the pedal note.
There is no way in hell he is using all those Marshals at once actually running it would be louder than a jet engine and would literally blow people off the stage. 1 Marshall stack at full volume can literally knock you to the ground
"The Wall of Marshalls, big as the Wall of China, as you've already said." The difference is that you can _see_ the Great Wall of China from space, whereas you can _hear_ the Great Wall of Marshalls from space.
Most of those Marshall heads have to be dummy heads for show only. If he plugged all 55 of them in, he'd have more wattage than he can handle, and he'd blow the roof off the place!
I saw him in concert 5 times. He had 6 full stacks sometimes, and one time he had 10 stacks, in a huge club in Sauget Illinois called Pop's that is open 24 hours a day. Blistering loud for sure.
I know people dislike him. I love his honesty. I love how he calls the noiseless pickups humbuckers. They label them as single coils. Even the fender noiseless. They are not single coils. They are double stacked and can be coil tapped. He just broke the false advertisement lol. Yes they are voiced like a single coil for all you gear junkies that will dislike my comment.
If you look close enough you'll see that none of the amplifiers have anything feeding the inputs on the front un less they were going through the return in the back of the amplifiers which would bypass the preamp section and just be using the power section of the amp.
how is he running his delays? instrument level into the front end of a crunchy marshall? that will sound horrific? an amazing player, but how is he using the delays? unless he is using the effects loop of his YJM heads? that's the one little bit of info he almost always leaves out. :D
delay running into a crunchy marshall can't be clean though? I know what you're saying, but even a single repeat will make the delays trip into each other causing horrific distortion.. or maybe he doesnt care about the delays doing this? I appreciate the reply thank you.
3:54 while we’re here slamming endorsements 😂 and dripping ego. Dude must have a foot long sack because he’s more confident than Ali and McGregor combined. I love you Yngwie. (Please no autographs)
How did Nick not know Yngwie’s pickups were humbucking? Certainly Nick had to cross paths or at least similar circles as with/as Yngwie in the '80's. The string gauges still seem like they'd feel unbalanced to me. .008-.014 tuned a half-step down would feel like overcooked angel hair pasta to me, although the wound strings would feel nice.
I love Yngwie but the stacks are ridiculous. Its more impressive to have more speaker cabs than amp heads. Guess its just another way to have staging. Haha.
I used a Space Echo once, so I am with the elite users! Just Capt Orksmegga, ole Geddy and the Donut Destroyer himself! Sounds like the worst Marvel film ever!

Instablaster
Everything is ok with Yngwie, BUT, if you start to talk about guitar players with him, you unleashed his mouth, literally!!
The ones talking trash are the same guys insisting about that soul BS
Happy
Kdh was talking bad about him and he filed copyright strike on his video just to censor him lol
the King
Love the taurus pedals. See them with Tribute bands mosty
but there's a few rockers on the East Coast that use em, too
@01:43 Yngwie has his fretboard shaved down to the extreme. #WildViking Vintage #RolandBossSpaceEcho.
Yngwie Malmsteen signature air
great to see!
YJM is a legend!!!
His sound man must have fun!
Boss and Line 6. Got it.
Yngwie the I.dol👍👍
Yeah, but my amp goes to eleven, that's just one louder. I mean, when you're already at 10 and you want to go louder, there's no where higher to go, unless your knobs go to 11.

HAHAHAHAHAHA OMG man... look at Malmsteen's face right at the beginning. He just stands there posing not giving a f@&K about whats going on.
so thats how u get yngwie tone , everythings on full
Even Yngwie thinks the wall of marshalls is hilarious.
so, yngwie, How do you make your dinner?
well, this is the Yngwie Malmsteen signature frying pan...
He designed the frying pan himself
And then he uses a million ingredients at blinding speeds and the meal still tastes like shit.
🤣🤣🤣
bet you it costed the same f my Mamasteen Chinese relic with the scaloped neck with shrimp pickguard., gonna smash it on a Slash signature Amplitube amp too (on a iphone 3) !
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😏🤣🤣🤣
I wanted to buy a Plexi but Yngwie got em all evidently.
I want a Gibson Byrdland but Ted Nugent has them all I (we all) can't.
I want to buy guitar pedals and fortunately Joe Bonamassa sold all of his
+Mal Reynolds why , they're nothing like plexis. great amps though.
+Mal Reynolds why , they're nothing like plexis. great amps though.
Thank god he wasn't told about bitcoin or something. I still need a graphic card to play fucking games.
yngwie has lost some serious weight, looking good! :)
Still has the wig though.
Ahhhhhh, it's not a wig hahahaha
Roger Winright extensions!
Hahahahaha
He´s gained´em all back now. More is more. :D
I don’t listen to Yngwie all that much, but he’s a blast to see live. He had the wall last time, but I’m pretty sure only two heads and cabs were actually off standby.
Yeah people would be hospitalized if you stood in front of 55 plexi’s
1:02 Only Yngwie is old school enough to mention it's a 4 bolt :D
Only 2 things visible from Space, The Great Wall Of China, & YJMs Wall Of Marshalls
Rick VH It’s just a myth that The Great Wall Of China is visible from space. Yngwie’s wall of Marshalls, though....
This is the loudest wall yet
dont forget his ego
Holy cow.
and, hey, look - no $900 boutique pedals!
@@fbuiafdf you’re under shooting that i think lol
More is always more, kids.
=D
How can less be more? Yngwie gets it!!!
Malmsteen has lost a lot of weight!! Good on him.

He's like the Trump of neoclassical metal. "Making Bach great again. He's great, it's true!"
He even built a wall (of Marshalls)
Mandarin good for u son!!
+Tom Goldsmith guitar Woosh!
LOL!
Yngwie has become a much more down to earth guy in recent years. Alcohol and hard drugs doesn’t emphasize people’s good sides.
Yeah. I don't remember a version of Yngwie that is personable or has a sense of humor. Great little rig tour!
Wish he would have played a little. Curious what his current rig sounds like. Tons of videos of him playing on youtube. But they tend to be quite old.
He never did hard drugs, he was just an alcoholic. Well you can kinda say alcohol is a hard drug..
But alcohol is a downer, so it probably made him more bitter and less happy.
He's clearly Blapped in this interview, didn't you notice?
@@bwgti Yah but I think he has used that same rig forever.
Why do a rig rundown without hearing any sounds.
always hate when that happens!
It’s the best I’ve ever heard Malmsteen play
RUclips comments: the place where no one can figure out which punctuation to end a question with. But 'A' for effort!
to be fair if he had played with all those 100w Marshalls, with everything on ten then that poor interviewer would have been killed from the sheer volume, Yngwie has built up a tolerance to it over the years like with snake bites.
Trump is bringing Malmsteen to the White House to Play loud !!!!!! Great 👍
1:44 that is the string action of every shredders dream
Talk about fret buzz on an unscalloped fretboard!
Zack Brannon he must have the lightest of pick attack, to get minimal buzz
AGREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@thatoneguy-qc6gf Fret buzz is the string hitting the metal frets. Removing wood between the frets does nothing for fret buzz.
@@hollywoodactress idk if you have since youve commented this but watch his right hand in his live show in the 80s its insane his picking hand moves so minimally and just fluid its like magic
Dang, this is one of the best interviewers ive heard, perfect for a guy like Yngwie.
If Donald Trump was born Swedish neoclassical shredder he would be Yngwie.
This is an accurate statement
Almost chocked laughing out loud!!!!
Well, Yngwie may've been an ass in the past but not an evil one.
Agreed
Deep Well that’s hilarious
Gotta love him. The knobs in the distortion pedal are dimed. Classic!
Say what you will about the guy...I LOVE HIS PLAYING!!!
Nobody can beat Yngwie in his own game! He is the best at this style shred!
Andrew Chemer. I'd say it's pretty much fact.
His shredding is boring, tough
Efra Caso -If his shredding is so boring than how come millions of guitar player try to sounds like him?
CTROCK michael romeo and michael angelo batio, they’re better than yngwie
😂🙈
This reminded me the Armin Amzarian episode of the Simpsons:
-"This is Armin's apartment, Armin's liquor, Armin's copy of swank... Armin's frozen peas"
-This is the YM Fender Stratocaster, the YM strap, Malmsteen's strings, Yngwie Malmsteen overdrive pedal...and so on.
The YJM fury pickups are very very good pickups i highly suggest trying them out.
I may not like him as a person, but he gets credit for using most of his signature gear as opposed to SOME people.
Malmsteen is awesome doing it his own way! Good on him, a true talent on guitar amazing songs that only he could write in this style. Great to see the wall of Marshalls
Yngwie plays for the fans great shows epic albums true rock guitarist Humble and down to earth 🌍👍
Yngwie is always beyond awesome!!
wait. this guy is EVEN TALLER THAN YNGWIE??? How tall is he? Iike 3.5 meters???
didnt get the part on Geddy Lee. What effects was he talking about??
the moog/bass,taurus pedals like old hammond organ guys used..like geddy uses when playing keys..yngwie uses them to make a droning note while he solos over the pedal note.
love that guy - perfect showman and a great performer!
Big props to Yngwie for doing the interview instead of his tech !!!
Did he get Mexico to pay for the wall?
"If you look closely on one of the old amps it says JMP, but on this on it says YJM whoooo" "hahah"
..and they didnt even bother to take a look on it.
I'm sure none of his marshall goes to eleven
Yngwie is a one off, a total legend!😎
There is no way in hell he is using all those Marshals at once actually running it would be louder than a jet engine and would literally blow people off the stage. 1 Marshall stack at full volume can literally knock you to the ground
Unfortunately no matter what you play through that gear it always comes out in A harmonic minor.
"The Wall of Marshalls, big as the Wall of China, as you've already said." The difference is that you can _see_ the Great Wall of China from space, whereas you can _hear_ the Great Wall of Marshalls from space.
Love this rig, but love even more the Rolex Daytona Yngwie have.
Humbuckers disguised as single coils
I think the Presence on number 47 needs some adjusting to find the sweet spot.
Most of those Marshall heads have to be dummy heads for show only. If he plugged all 55 of them in, he'd have more wattage than he can handle, and he'd blow the roof off the place!
Jeez how tall is this interviewer? Yngwie is 6'3'' !
"He doesn't have many amps" 😉
Wow, yngwie and Nick bowcott, i'm fan of both!!!
how can less be more? it's impossible. more is more.
3/4 of those cabinets are EMPTY love yngwie tho master shredder.
I saw him in concert 5 times. He had 6 full stacks sometimes, and one time he had 10 stacks, in a huge club in Sauget Illinois called Pop's that is open 24 hours a day. Blistering loud for sure.

Yngwie is the Ozzy Osbourne of the guitar world.
You mean he is a burned up, charismatic, talentless junkie? Nah.
Yngwie has more talent in his toes than Osbourne!
@@centaurus5676 And his wife is 100,000 × more attractive than that HAG Sharon Osbourne
Yngwie understands what building the wall really means! :)
You can see the amps from space
how is he running his delays? instrument level into the front end of a crunchy marshall? that will sound horrific? an amazing player, but how is he using the delays? unless he is using the effects loop of his YJM heads? that's the one little bit of info he almost always leaves out. :D
Steve Forward he’s running a wet dry setup. He may not have more than one repeat so it is clean.
delay running into a crunchy marshall can't be clean though? I know what you're saying, but even a single repeat will make the delays trip into each other causing horrific distortion.. or maybe he doesnt care about the delays doing this? I appreciate the reply thank you.
Such a great intro! Love Yngwie....LOL. The man that showed us that excess is never enough.
Yngwie has the best heavy metal strat tone. Bar none.
He lost weight! Good for him.
Masayoshi Yamashita of Loudness also uses Taurus pedals.
" I designed it"
malmsteen for trump
3:54 while we’re here slamming endorsements 😂 and dripping ego. Dude must have a foot long sack because he’s more confident than Ali and McGregor combined.
I love you Yngwie. (Please no autographs)

I love how less and compact it is. I'm amazed it doesn't affect the way he plays. He's awesome.
yngwie is like donald trump only with a wall of amps
Reinier van zwieten That's so funny. Wall of Marshall stacks for the U.S. border. Make the immigrants go deaf, as they try to cross.
🤣
I love Yngwie but the stacks are ridiculous. Its more impressive to have more speaker cabs than amp heads. Guess its just another way to have staging. Haha.
Yngwie is a TRUE Genius
This guy’s a savage 😅I love it!
And a lot of Ferrari stickers, it makes gears sound better.
*K I N G*
He knows what works.........BOSS....cant believe boss hasnt mae a YJM overdrive yet.....do you know how much that would sell?....a lot.
if aliens came here from another solar system they would know Yngwie puts stacked humbuckers in all his strats how does this guy not know this.
Taurus pedals! Only me an GeddyLee p
Looking more and more like Elvis.
This intro with Yngwie playing on a unplugged guitar reminds me of Skwiskar :D
....I thought this was a Ritchie Blackmore
video....
Yngwie is the King!
Good thing he has gotten more humble over the years...........ha. One of a kind either way.
That's the biggest wall of Marshall's I've seen anybody use!
Lets play a game of "Taking a shot, everytime you hear 'Yngwie Malmsteen"
Yngwie is the King!
So, in short, it's all "amazing, amazing stuff".
I used a Space Echo once, so I am with the elite users! Just Capt Orksmegga, ole Geddy and the Donut Destroyer himself! Sounds like the worst Marvel film ever!
He is great but this rig rundown was lame with no examples!...
He lost his hearing over the years, shame for the audience who's gonna suffer
Why can you not find a single Fender Yngwie red pedals anymore. It’s like they vanished from the earth. Not Even used anywhere! WTH!
55 Marshall Plexi 50W/100W Heads and one Overdrive Pedal....HaHa What's the point??
