How many guitars does one need? A simple formula f = the optimal number of guitars x = your current number of guitars Then F = x + 1 Love your work Kiko! Thanks for all the content.
You need different guitars because they all have their strengths. There is also the issue of variable tunings. You may have several songs with different tunings you have to cover in a set. Joni Mitchel is known for this. I find that I go through phases regarding the sort of tones I want. Sometimes I want to hear all humbuckers 24/7. Other times I get more into a stratty single coil tone. One of my favorite players, John McLaughlin has used a wide array of instruments and was one of the first players to exploit the power of midi. Always keep it fresh. Sometimes I play one of my Ovations for a month before I go back to electric. It's great to have different guitars on hand. Also, if you play guitar you should also learn piano, vice versa, not because you expect to be a virtuoso on both, but because they are sort of mirrors of each other. If you don't want to buy a full grand or upright get an electric piano or a good keyboard like a Korg, Nord, Roland or Yamaha, with 88 keys.
Brian may Will never be a master and a shreder like Kiko. Are diferent styles. By the way, Brian had a Lot of copys and used a Lot of diferent guitars in Studio
Dear Kiko, can you recommend a few, maybe 3 or 4, favourite composers of yours? Classical / Jazz. Plus, what music are you enjoying listening to nowadays?
Well... You might have different tunings? I have a 7 String Standard B, a 6 string Standard E, a Standard C for doom metal, and another drop D... So... That's a good reason too I guess.
Hey Kiko just subscribed to your channel , sorry it took so long just wanted to say thank you man love what your doing wished more musicians took time out of their lives to show the fans back stage and also how to play guitar . You are a fantastic teacher and that is what rock in roll is all about thank you
Kiko don't play any instruments just enjoy Heavy Guitar Rock Music.... Have you listened to Band-Maid out of Japan, what is your opinion of their music..???? ... I have been watching your channel for about a year now and it great .. thanks for taking the time to do it.
Kiko! Love your video as always. Can you give us some tips on when we suffer from Record/Red Button Syndrome. Even though I am recording at home from sometime I feel when I am not nailing a lick/riff it tends to get worse.
kiko, how was it adapting to megadeth's sound right after leaving angra, how did you get the songs, if it took many days, if dave helped you, how was it? or did you already know the songs for being a megadeth fan? hugs from Brazil!
I think the right amount is roughly how many tunings you use, so if you use three tunings, then three guitars. Most players will also have an acoustic guitar too.
I think to get different experience of tone & sound feeling between one guitar to another, as a professional guitar player of course need a lot of guitar as their experiment also.. Great Kiko
Kiko, 1. what main bands/artists have you been listening to lately? 2. Who are your top-10 guitarists that most influenced in your way of playing (regardless the positions of the rank)? Thanks! Keep the channel up! Great content!
Can you please please please please please please please please please PLEASE give me a guitar??????? You’d make my life!!!!! LITERALLY 😍😍😍 I really really really really would dance with joy even if it was an old guitar that you just have laying around ❤😊 please I’m BEGGING you 😄😄😄😄
I have 2 guitars and one of them I never play. I always pick up my favorite one. I used to have 5 or 6 but still I only ever played my favorite one, the others just hung on the wall collecting dust.
Why did you say that you are horrible? hahaha you are so good! lml that piano part was so nice, that song with the strings effect was amazing, nice video as always.
I really need one guitar and it's from Ibanez and it's called Kiko200, it's the best guitar in the world. I love them. It is incredibly versatile and can be used for many styles of music
Hi Kiko! I'm currently a college freshman but I wanted to be a professional guitarist and musician just like you. Question: Should I transfer to a music college like Berklee instead of studying math? I've been thinking about this for a while and I worry if it's too late or if it's not worthy for me. I wish you could give me some advice. Thank you Kiko! You are amazing and I love your Open Source album!
Please. Do another video explaining your neural dsp timbres, and how you use to choise your drives and clean tones back in the angra days, and the main differences between today's days.
Aww great video Kiko, you are such a wonderful human being ❤ Ps, you missed the opportunity for a L'Oréal sponsorship for your hair 🤣 Women try every product under the sun to get their hair looking nice, ...ask a man what he uses 'don't know, whatever is there' Brilliant 🤣
Kiko, as you briefly discussed in another video. Please can you expand on how you developed your stage presence. I guess it takes years, confidence and passion.
When learning a new guitar technique do you try to compose a song/riff focusing on the technique to get the muscular memory for when you need it or do you let the inspiration to use it to come naturally and go from there?
I understand why you prefer talking about music than gear. For you, guitar is a tool for making music. Off course you have to understand it to a certain degree. But the music is the priority and then you choose which guitar and gear can make that music. I believe all professional guitarist have mindset like that. Some guitarist is also a guitar and gear nerd. Pete Thorn and Mark Tremonti are just a few example.
Hi Kiko, can you tell us something more about your song EDM videoclip? Such a wonderful composition of images and music. Thanks for what you do, greetings from San Marino 🇸🇲
You are what you eat,health is the secret ... Probably the best advice for longevity as a musician... And about time someone said it 😎 trust Kiko to be the pioneer health guitarist.. Another first maestro 😎 😂 🙏🐆
hey, guitar-hero Kiko. From a music theory & technique standpoint, could you compare guitar to piano? I ran across a great modern music text published by O'Reilly which compared, in detail, Piano(Keyboard) vs Guitar, for example: Piano can use all 10 fingers for chordal voicings, Guitar can use only 4 (maybe 5); Piano can play cluster harmony, on Guitar it is difficult or impossible; Piano is difficult to play repeated notes, Guitar is very easy to play repeated notes especially with pick ; Piano can't strum chords, Guitar can strum chords naturally; Piano can play melody with accompaniment (overlapping rhythms), Guitar can not; Piano is difficult or very difficult to transpose, Guitar is very easy to transpose especially with capo, etc. In a musical contest of playing ever more complex permutations of a Themes & Variations, which player would win, the Pianist(Keyboardist) or the Guitarist? Of course you can guess which one I will bet on ( 🎸! ).
piano is much better to explore theory, but guitar wins in terms of expressiveness and singularity. I think it's important to learn piano as a second instrument (if you're not a pianist, of course), because you can have a point of view that you'd never have in the main instrument
@@Joao-py6rj that is a common opinion "piano is best to learn/practice theory" but keep in mind that ALL theory books are written by Pianists and I have never found a theory textbook written by a guitarist (and is guitar-centric).. There should be no reason why theory directly on the Guitar neck is harder to learn.. In fact the patterns on the Guitar neck are far easier to learn than Piano patterns (scales or chord shapes) because of the need for the black keys, etc.. So Yeah it is a common opinion but not actually proven that Piano is "best" for theory study. Not to mention that Piano is a seriously rapidly-declining instrument to own (look up sales of pianos since 1900's) and acoustic Pianos are very rare in homes due to their size and upkeep cost (continual tuning expense and purchase price $5000+) whereas Electric Guitar is the #1 selling instrument for decades now, and very inexpensive, $200 guitar can be used professionally. Taylor Swift sells more guitars now (in the hundreds of thousands) through her own direct artist influence & fanbase than ALL pianos sold across the entire Piano industry.. (look up quotes from Fender CEO on this).
Hi Kiko! You have spoken that piano is helping you to compose. Have you any of your song which has been started from a piano idea and became a guitar masterpiece? Cheers Greg
Hey Kiko, what is the time frame or point in someones progression where its time to upgrade their guitar from their cheap beginner model? Love the videos keep it up!
Yes, asap, especially if the first guitar has bad intonation that can't be fixed by setting it up. Your ear/brain will learn 'wrong' tones with a 'bad' guitar.
Q&A: Hi Kiko, Will you make an Europe trip for playing solo? I would like to see you playing your new album Open Source on stage, especially at Istanbul. With all respect.
Also an important reason to have several guitars, you can have them in different tunings and then you don't have to retune them all the time, which is anyways not good for the action and general set up.
@@Joao-py6rj agreed but consider tonality a single coil vs a humbucker or guitars tuned in different key you understand? That’s called music production buddy.
I bought my boyfriend a new guitar/ bass/ strings/ pedals etc. on every possible occasion. I'm not a musician, but an enthusiastic fan of music so... That could also work! :D
Thanks Kiko today's episode was alot of fun, always a pleasure to hear you playing piano. Agree learning other instruments improves your own personal qualities. On Beauty agree on diet / exercise but it's really about growing old gracefully & a charming disposition. I also do not use expensive hair care products, in all honesty the best shampoo I've ever used would be the Bob Barker (RIP) County jail line of products, Really Good 👍 Stuff. I kept all my bottles and use them for hair rollers now. Gratidao Kiko, Boa noite greetings from Peoria IL
Hi Kiko, I want to tell you that you are one of the most inspiring people for your simplicity of person and those facilities in the form of a guitar... I would like you to make a tutorial of your patches for G3Xn or G5n zoom... Namasté Lord Kiko. (Sorry but may bad english)
Hey Kiko! Love the Q&A. Was there a reason that Conquer or Die was tuned down 2 steps (played in D-minor) and not in standard tuning? I'm curious on what gauge strings were used on the Ibanez? Thanks!
Probably to comfort Dave's voice. Since he can't really sing as high anymore. And if he did play it in standard, it might just be the only one out since the rest are in D standard for Dave's voice. And in one of his videos he said he use 10-52 for D standard. And for E standard he uses 10-48
It'd be 2 half steps or 1 step but as the first comment said, everything else was in D standard due to Dave's voice, so it wouldn't make sense to have it E standard
Hey thx for the replies. Yeah I missed that video where Kiko discusses strings & picks. He did mention 10-52s when in D standard. Well, the more guitars the better so you can have different tunings/gauges for each eh!
Hey Kiko! Im looking at buying one of ur signature guitar….Kiko 100 or is the 200 out? Just bought Mr. Satrianis 30th edition Ibanez, Chrome! Which of urs should i buy?
Inspiration , well said Kiko. Classical guitar for neighbours, electric for the crowd. Good advice Life coach 👊. Any possibility on Vai or Satriani influence ? Master Steve Vai's latest one arm song is awesome 🤘✌️ Thanks Kiko 🇦🇺
Are you always 100% happy with your guitars? I have 4 guitars and my main one I play is a custom shop strat. I use it most and love the way it plays, but I’m never 100% happy with any. I always find something to tweak or change. And fret buzz kills me.Does that happen to you?
Hey Kiko, I discovered you around 2008 when I was really getting into guitar and diving into advanced techniques, which brought me to your 8 Finger (Piano Tap) Technique you used with Angra and on your No Gravity Solo Album

Brian May needed one to record all the Queen :)
Surely he owns more than one.
Brian may Will never be a master and a shreder like Kiko.
Are diferent styles.
By the way, Brian had a Lot of copys and used a Lot of diferent guitars in Studio
And a Fender Telecaster for Crazy Little Thing Called Love :)
@@haritodecebolla yes
@Komitet he is a legendary songwhriter. But not a virtuous player.
He doesn't need 24 frets for example
You seem to be a happy person. Do you feel the joy in your life is doing what you love?
Dear Kiko, can you recommend a few, maybe 3 or 4, favourite composers of yours? Classical / Jazz. Plus, what music are you enjoying listening to nowadays?
Kiko you are the best guitarist ever, keep being awesome🤘🏻
Hahahahaa preciso mostrar essa resposta pra patroa! Com profissional não se discute!
Encher a sala de guitarras é estar na presença de grandes amigos.
Cara, sua resposta foi ótima! "Encher a sala de guitarras é estar na presença de grandes amigos!!!". Excelente!!

So, basically Kiko's hair is awesome from the beginning and he's cool by nature.
Man i love your videos. You still inspiring me every day.
How about a keyboard home tour? And a keyboard playthrough? *quietly chanting: Feijão de corda, Feijão de corda, Feijão de corda 🤞*
Well... You might have different tunings? I have a 7 String Standard B, a 6 string Standard E, a Standard C for doom metal, and another drop D... So... That's a good reason too I guess.
Hair chat remembered me about when we talked about black metal and Mork, it made me laugh :)
I have very long hair. I for sure use Nexus Shampoo and Conditioner. It's the best by far and smells great!
My brother is your biggest fan Kiko keep growing!

Can playing classical guitar improve my electric guitar skills too?

Can you give us some tips on when we suffer from Record/Red Button Syndrome. Even though I am recording at home from sometime I feel when I am not nailing a lick/riff it tends to get worse.
Can you talk about musical benefits of playing a 7 string or a bass guitar? How does it musically and technically help guitarists to play them?
Kiko, what usually your instrumental songs starts with? Is it melody, riff, drums or whatever? Thanks for answering!
Yep, Im the same I prefer to talk about the creativity and songwriting etc.
kiko, how was it adapting to megadeth's sound right after leaving angra, how did you get the songs, if it took many days, if dave helped you, how was it? or did you already know the songs for being a megadeth fan? hugs from Brazil!
Seus vídeos melhoram meu dia
It’s not easy when you marry someone that doesn’t play any instruments lol
Love your videos Kiko
Buy everything before marriage!!!
I think the right amount is roughly how many tunings you use, so if you use three tunings, then three guitars. Most players will also have an acoustic guitar too.
I own only 3 guitars, I plan on buying 2 to 3 more in the coming year!

ur technique is awesome kiko, you dirk and lomenzo gives the perfect sound to megadeth, this is the best momment of the band

Any tips on making baroque era classical compositions on guitar?
Guitarra é que nem notícia boa, nunca é demais.
Love you video🤟🏼🤟🏼Keep up the good work🤟🏼
Do you have any tips or exercises for mastering gallop picking ?
Excellent question Brian
Kiko, as you briefly discussed in another video.
Please can you expand on how you developed your stage presence.
I guess it takes years, confidence and passion.
Kiko, awesome video, as always! Please share with us wich are the theory concepts that you consider more important for a guitarrist to dominate...
Hi Kiko, question for the next Q&A maybe. With your musical knowledge/background, could you survive a jazz/fusion gig?
When learning a new guitar technique do you try to compose a song/riff focusing on the technique to get the muscular memory for when you need it or do you let the inspiration to use it to come naturally and go from there?

Hello kiko ...big fan here!
Why Ibanez ? Why did you chose Ibanez besides others brands and companies?
Can you play like left handed( I know you are, but I mean using a guitar like a lot of left handed do)? And if you can do it, show us :)
Or even you can't do it, it should be a challenge :p

Finally someone had the balls to give that awesome answer “ as many as you can afford”… thanks Kiko 🙏
Kiko you are my hero! Thank you for all these videos 🙏🏼🤘
Different tones and timbres and it’s a wonderful addiction. Can be expensive though.
Hey Kiko! Is it important to have any kinda noise gate while playing with lots of distortion?
Apart from playing them, I look at them as a piece of art.
Because more is more!

@@cassi4891 yup, for shows it's even more important since you really don't have the time to retune, particularly with Floyd Rose guitars.

@@Joao-py6rj agreed but consider tonality a single coil vs a humbucker or guitars tuned in different key you understand? That’s called music production buddy.
Now as you are living in Finland, do you have any favourite Finnish bands (metal or not)?
I have 4 all Jacksons 2 King Vs and 2 RR models but purchasing a BC Rich Warlock in the next few weeks keep them all in different tunings

HA HA HA that music over your hair I lost it then ha ha ha
That’s like asking an auto mechanic why you have so many bolts and wrenches.
Fala Kiko. Faz um video tocando outros instrumentos que tu toca
they get free guitars (endorsements) different riffs sound better on different guitars.
Question
How to improvise and not get lost in the structure of the music?for example to know which bar we are going and which chord.
Kiko, could you show us how high you have the strings set on your guitars? Like a shoot from the side? Thanks!
Now that we have lots of snow again, do you prefer cross-country skiing or ice skating?
Kiko’s keyboard playing sounds like the soundtrack for the 90s PC game Heretic.
Oops and my main question: can you talk about the transposition process ;-)
Hey Kiko! Love the Q&A. Was there a reason that Conquer or Die was tuned down 2 steps (played in D-minor) and not in standard tuning? I'm curious on what gauge strings were used on the Ibanez? Thanks!
Probably to comfort Dave's voice. Since he can't really sing as high anymore. And if he did play it in standard, it might just be the only one out since the rest are in D standard for Dave's voice. And in one of his videos he said he use 10-52 for D standard. And for E standard he uses 10-48

He uses 10-52 and 10-42.He already make a video about his picks and strings
It'd be 2 half steps or 1 step but as the first comment said, everything else was in D standard due to Dave's voice, so it wouldn't make sense to have it E standard
Hey thx for the replies. Yeah I missed that video where Kiko discusses strings & picks. He did mention 10-52s when in D standard. Well, the more guitars the better so you can have different tunings/gauges for each eh!
