What a wonderful time in history to play guitar. Thank you SO much for making my day. I can't believe this supergenius can be so kind as to share so much so well with me. Those that do CAN teach, better than most teachers. Thanks to EVERYONE involved in making this video series happen. What joy!
I would pay money for these Guthrie videos to be put out regularly. Like a subscription or something lol. He’s just so damn great at explaining and easy on the ears.
Mr Govan and Paul Gilbert are THE BEST teachers.........in my opinion, very earnest and no patronization . And of course, their skills are off the chart.
i’m convinced he had to practice this a long time to develop those muscles. he almost says as much. it’s insane how hard this is not having done it before !
Insane how (arguably) the greatest guitarist alive is also one of the greatest teachers out there, guitar or otherwise. I honestly think he could be teaching the art of paint drying and it would still be interesting.
exactly my thoughts. most of these so called guitar heroes just talk non stop and don't even bother to properly explain the concepts. A lot of their workshops is just a waste of money. In his case, it might be the greatest teacher you ever had.
Just when you think you're getting a grip on technique, along comes someone like this, to tell you..."No. No, you need to do a lot more work." It either depresses you, or inspires you. It inspires me. Great player!
I would argue in terms of simple reputation and final result…. Working with zimmer and his own stuff…. This man is the best guitar player currently alive…. And yes before you ask ,.. he’s way way way way way way way way better than Tim Henson ffs
Hey Gunthrie, I was just curious if you good do a video about progressions embedded in solos. Something Ive noticed over the years is that instead of thinking of what scale I should use over a chord, it seems to be also helpful to play in terms of outlining specific chords and an overall sense of progression, and not necessarily only in terms of arpeggios. Thanks, cheers, great videos
Chet Atkins esque progression at 10:20 is awesome, definitely worth learning by itself. Will tab out soon, PM me if you'd like it (realistically won't be done till next week, I have exams).
"So the ER doc says 'My God, man, what did you DO to your fingers?' And I says 'I was trying to bend like Guthrie Govan!' And he says 'Well you've managed to dislocate three of them.'" I wonder if there's such a thing as 6 gauge strings...
do you use the tremol-no for all this stuff? because when I try to practice them on my floyd-rose and old-style floating tremolo-equipped guitars, bending one string causes the bridge to render all the rest so wildly out of tune that it becomes unusable to me. maybe I just need heavier springs?
I'm pretty sure your reference and use of Albatross and other songs in the other videos falls under fair use as it is an example used to illustrate your point.
Hello Guthrie? 1 Question I have Is about the tone of your Guitar. It does somewhat sound like a Pedal Steel. Would thinner strings Esp, The G. B. E. Give More Of A County Sound? Good lesson By the way.
He uses 10-46, he used to be endorsed by RotoSound, not so sure now. He is a real chameleon when it comes to sound though, I think he just has that magic touch!
So wonderful! Not only an incredible player, but so gifted in clarity of teaching!
Not an incredible player? Who?
Man his phrasing and voicing of his bends are straight up heart warming
I really hope there's more masterclass videos from Guthrie to come in the future...

What a wonderfully talented person he is! Never get tired of watching him.
This guy is such a great player and teacher.

Secrets to being a good guitarist:
- Listen to what you play
- Grow a beard
- Play 100% of the time for your entire life
99%....the 1% percent left ( in anything) i keep as the ghost or zombie percent.......words of wisdom
Mr Govan and Paul Gilbert are THE BEST teachers.........in my opinion, very earnest and no patronization . And of course, their skills are off the chart.
In Part Five, Guthrie teaches you how to bend the low E string around the neck entirely. I don't want this series to end!!!
All these insane bends on .10's and intonation to die for. New definition of sick.
bobbysbackingtracks yeah I have nines and some of the bends we're really hard to get to the right pitch. He's awesome.
i’m convinced he had to practice this a long time to develop those muscles. he almost says as much. it’s insane how hard this is not having done it before !
Awesomeness, tip of the hat to the people who set this stuff up too, thank you guitarist magazine :)
His ability is in a universe of its own. Truly one of the best in the world.
What a great guy, and that Charvel is stunning!
Guitar genius on so many levels.
Guthrie is such a gentleman. And his playing skills are just out of this world.
Guthrie is a brilliant guitarist who can play anything supremely well and he is obviously a very intelligent humorous guy as well.
I really just enjoy listening to him talk
Josh Bremerman I know! Good dude I bet.
yeah ❤✨
10:13 is why we love Guthrie! 😄
Dude this guy has such a versatile playing style, I'm in awe.
2:50 Hey Mr Govan, whatever I did to you I'm very sorry
"It is: Professor Govan. NEVER Mr. Govan., show some respect".
"It is: Professor Govan. NEVER Mr. Govan., show some respect".
2:50 Hey Mr Govan, whatever I did to you I'm very sorry
he is amazing.
and actually I didn't expect him to explain things in such a easy to understand fashion.
kudos

6:52 He's the Bob Ross of the guitar
Thanos Psaridis he doesn't make mistakes. Just happy accidents
This is really an outstanding series.
You have very cool way of showing guitar Thank you ! 35 years of playing just got better!!
Great five part series, well spoken man, amazin' player, great teacher. Awesome stuff.
I sincerely appreciate this GG Masterclass.
Just when you think you're getting a grip on technique, along comes someone like this, to tell you..."No. No, you need to do a lot more work."
It either depresses you, or inspires you. It inspires me. Great player!
Yup makes me start playing again
Genius player and teacher.
One can never have enough Guthrie Govan.
This is wild...getting to grips with some off these bends is baffling but very rewarding. I feel like I'm in Nashville. Thanks Guthrie.
Awesome talent and he seesm like such a cool level headed person. Well done Mr. Govan. Thanks
this dude is brilliant. I love the way he talks
Great lesson on this. Has all the sounds I wanted to learn from country. Helps to learn this kind of thing for learning any lead.
Who is this amazing person? guitar genius. I can't believe I just found these videos.
"The virtuoso's virtuoso"
- his Wikipedia page
"It feels me with sadness" lol I lost it XD
Jesus, he gets so much diverse tone from that guitar. Guthrie is a real virtuoso
I've been looking for these type of lessons for ages THANKS Guitarist magazine and Mr. God Govan !!!!!!
12:17 Holy shit, things are getting out of hand.
Karn Kaul best comment
I love his style of teaching, thanks for the lessons!
this is great absolutely great, love Guthrie and his voice.
Very useful lessons. Thank you!
Very nice job here, you are awesome GG!
Guthrie is stupid good. And such a cool intelligent guy. Love his videos.
Guthrie Govan. Master-class playing without the ego!!!
Definitely adding some of these to the arsenal!
"So, just take all eight of your fingers and..."
Fantastic Lesson..............I really enjoyed this
so modest this guy is! i love him for that!
i've got loads of old guitarist magazines and guitar techniques magazines buried away somewhere, i might dig them back out..
*Sighs ardently and looks at guitar*
Why doesn’t mine do that?
Mate, I swear I just heard my guitar sigh ardently and say "why can't you play like that"
Right now I´ll accually stay with my day job. LOVE you Govan :)
Such a cool person !
I would argue in terms of simple reputation and final result…. Working with zimmer and his own stuff…. This man is the best guitar player currently alive…. And yes before you ask ,.. he’s way way way way way way way way better than Tim Henson ffs
Masterful teaching. Guthrie the Great.
Great bloke! Great teacher!
Great lesson Guthrie, thanks!

"Let's have a lick at look Nr. 4."
Genius.
Amazing - to get a free lesson from the Maestro
Really, Really GREAT STUFF!!!!!
Looks like Guthrie had the ‘joint shifting’ technique down long before Steve did ...
Yeah!
Chet Atkins esque progression at 10:20 is awesome, definitely worth learning by itself. Will tab out soon, PM me if you'd like it (realistically won't be done till next week, I have exams).
Still got exams?
@@husnainali-gn8bo Yeah I'm retaking for the 34th time next Tuesday :(
@@xxczerxx fr? Man stay strong
"So the ER doc says 'My God, man, what did you DO to your fingers?' And I says 'I was trying to bend like Guthrie Govan!' And he says 'Well you've managed to dislocate three of them.'" I wonder if there's such a thing as 6 gauge strings...
I wish i had just a tiny amount of his talent
"whatever your hands enjoy the most, that's the right way to do it."

4:08 "... meanwhile on the B string, this is where the naughtiness is happening, ..."
I love country music but suck at playing it. I love these country licks. I have to pick up the guitar now.
Shit , I like Guthrie.A great teacher. Very smart guy I learn more from him than anybody here.
Thanks man!
Awesome lesson, as always. Does anyone know what amp Guthrie is playing through here?
+Ryan Harding Victory V40..
V30
it hurts!! haha very good master class!
i love watching his videos, but am i the only one that has this feeling after, like i only learned 1/1000 of the lesson!?> .< Goodness haha, cheers
holy shit never thought I wanted to play country
I'd love to be able to finger pick fancy rockabilly country style riffs
you are so....interresting. thanks
never would have guessed that a werewolf would be so good at guitar lol
I have Edge Zero bridge, to TremolNo available for that-no double-stop bends :(
I'm pretty sure your reference and use of Albatross and other songs in the other videos falls under fair use as it is an example used to illustrate your point.
love it
Making it look easy
it happened at 3:55
He actually did a mistake.
😮 uauuuuu...
Awesome
Well this shits getting redonkulous real quick!! I almost thought I had my shit together 😫
8:42 He basically fretted, tapped, bent and strummed at the same time
at 7:18, any risk of scratching your fretboard?
