Anyone who is very very familiar with this song would be blown away by your performance. I've saved it and will be sharing it with everyone I know. As a guitar player I'm hypnotized dude!!
The hardest part is to play it without any mistake in front of the camera that too for almost 9 minutes straight . One mistake would ruin the video . I could just imagine the amount of tries it took to get that one perfect flawless take in front of the camera.
Браво👋. Это лучшая акустическая версия. Гилмор(не умаляя его таланта), в акустике передать это так подробно - не решается. Многие пытаются, но без использования электронных эффектов, глубина этой композиции не слышна. У вас получилось!!! Браво👋.
A nine part electric arrangement on a single acoustic guitar. What sorcery is this!? Most excellent job. I'm grabbing my acoustic right now to thoroughly frustrate myself trying to attempt something even remotely close.
I found a work around that makes this song more reasonable for us lesser fingerstylists to play and still sound like guidos version. Same tuning. Low E to C, and A to G. The trio of bass notes he plays starts with closing the 8th fret on the D string, then open A string, then open G string.. Then repeating again and again while overlaying the melody. Instead, I my trio of bass notes starts on open G, then open D, then open A. Due to octaves, this mimmicks very closely what he is doing with his base line but leaves me all of my left fingers to close the notes in the melody. It is far less confusing to maintain the trio of bass notes this way and gives me an easier chance at overlaying the melody. Try it. Instead of strings 4-5-3, 4-5-3 with the D string closed at the 8th fret, you are doing a much simpler 3-4-5, 3-4-5 pattern open. It is the only chance I have that learning this complex Arrangement without pulling my hair out and getting quicker results that sounds nearly identical to what he is doing. These Arrangements are just far too complex for us above average players to pick up on and play well. Being 60 with Alzheimers and dementia creeping in doesn't make this task less aggravating for sure! But I can still make it sound good if I cheat on the trio of base notes as I have described above. Good luck with my advice and thank you Guido for your crazy sick arrangement
*****MIND OFFICIALLY BLOWN***** As a 45 year guitar player I appreciate the classically trained fingerstyle arrangement, you are a virtuoso sir...I hope to be as good in another 45 years
I don’t know how many times I’ve commented on this but each time I come back, it blows my mind! This is the ultimate rendition of Shine on you crazy diamond! Period.
I am in class right now, i opened youtube to watch a video i was assigned and opened this by accident. Needless to say i was mesmerized, i couldn’t stop watching it. I am a huge pink floyd fan and this made my day. The talent this person has in his hands is unbelievable!!
I am 100% sure that this is the best cover ever played on RUclips! You are a prodigy Mr. Guido Mancino. Congratulating you is not even enough for this outstanding performance. Thank you so much for sharing...
This just blows my mind! I'm no stranger to guitar/guitar playing , that said, this is some serious craft and skill , Guido. Your timing is perfect , your arrangement gives this performance a sound that sounds like it's practically all the tracks in the song. You really showcase the full range possibilities a skilled player/musician can achieve with "just" an acoustic guitar .......
I have never seen something as great as this I just learned the "wish you were here solo! I dont think I have enough years left to master this! People will be listening to pink floyd 400 years from now like we listen to Bach.
I play finger style, every day..., multiple hours daily, it is a passion and I love it. To understand and grasp the artistry here, as well as, the mechanics, the discipline and practice that goes into this master work played here, well I'll just say, that is why I am stunned. This is an extraordinary talent developed with timing and dexterity that I have not seen before. Thank you for sharing this, what an inspiration. I have watched several of your video's, watching that right hand and fingers, really such a tight, disciplined and mechanically perfect orchestra. If you practice and appreciate finger-style, arpeggio's etc....then you can have a stronger appreciation for how complex and difficult it would be to play this,_ as you have Guido. Yeah some might say I am over the top and a real fan-boi, LOL! with these comments. Over years of playing and practicing specifically this type of play, I know how hard this is to do, at this level.
I counted my remaining years of life only to reach a conclusion id cease to exist before I play like this, man literally perfect rhythm perfect notes perfect tempo👏👏👏
I’ve been playing guitar for over 30 years, and have quite a collection of some very fine guitars. After watching this I think it’s time to sell them all and just quit! This is amazing!!!!
Posted for 5 years and I'm just seeing this now, August 8, 2020. I MUST HAVE been under a rock. This piece is beyond words. I'm stunned by the beauty of it.
Wow. What a beautiful interpretation of this iconic song. I could never have imagined an acoustic guitar even attempting this but you have made it sound like it was written for you and your guitar. You are a very talented person and I’m glad to have crossed paths with you
I don't know who the haters are that have given this a thumbs down, but they need to stop being jealous! This is seriously awesome and very nicely done. The tone from the guitar and how you play sound amazing.
I don’t think Guido is human because playing like this is not humanly possible. And that is why he doesn’t show his face. There I said it!!! 😁 I love his interpretation with this piece. The repeating pattern, starting in the very beginning adds so much to this music and makes it so much better as it gives (what I call) “edginess” (suspense) and it also fills the gaps and creates flowing continuity. Absolutely very “tasteful” and genius of him! For the repeating pattern, other than the bass line, he plays the 3rd (G) string and the 2nd (B) string “open”, but the second (B) string is dropped (tuned) down to A#.
First class professional performance. Before RUclips, you would have to to gladly pay for a ticket to see this. Thank you, and I'm giving you a Standing O...
I literally saw the thumbnail and entered like "pff yeah I wanna see this guy actually make shine on you crazy diamond on a guitar with no effects". And holy f, you blew me away. I play guitar on the higher bracket of the newbie side let's say, and I simply still can't "play two instruments" like you are doing here (lead + bass). Thank you so much!!! Really beautiful
It makes me happy to see that playing the base with the melody and chords at the same time is possible, you just have to put on the work .This is amazing bravo
A masterfully beautiful cover! My favourite thing about this song is that it's not rushed. It's arranged in a way to draw you in and help you really feel the music. Hearing it played on the acoustic guitar with all it's nuances really took me to a special place. Thank you!
I'm a guitar player for over 20 years! We know that we always try to improve our techniques the rest of our lives, and we never know everything. A few years ago, I decided to go back in my process of evolution, because I understood that less is more. I understand that simplicity is hard to achieve, and that the beauty we seek is 90% of the time in simplicity. Well done. Great performance. Congratulations!
I think RUclips revamped their recommendation algo and now after 8 years I found this masterpiece out of the blue! Maintaining that base throughout alone is astonishing, for the rest I just stop… wow, no words ❤
So glad that RUclips blessed me with this masterful rendition. You nailed the solos completely on top of the chords. The arrangement is great, and satisfies someone who knows every single detail of the studio recording. Bravo.
Dude I keep coming back to this, as everyone should, because rarely does something get better each time you hear it but this is music for the soul and Thank you for it ! 🙏🏼✌🏼
You can't kid me, sir. I KNOW you are really David Gilmour ! ! ! Just kidding. Brother, you have great talent and picked one of my favorites of Pink Floyd. God Bless You and thank you for all the hard work in learning this as well as posting.
I hope your read this and know what a profound affect this had on me. In my mind one of the all time best songs ever written and to see you flawlessly incorporate that into an acousic in your own innovative way is tremendous. You are a true talent and I can't emphasize enough just how impressed I am by this and how happy it made me to see you perform it. Thank you for sharing this with the world. go on you legend and shine!!!!
I come to this video here once atleast every few months, just to feel happy. As a beginner guitarist I aspire for this. I am fairly certain I might never become this efficient and skilled, but this is the sort of ability one needs to aspire to.
Holy fuck this is good. This is one of the cleanest solos ever played, and you managed to keep it just as complex as the original song. This cover is a masterpiece - i must say Bravo
I felt as if I was listening to this song for the first time. This is absolutely amazing. There's been no guitar cover which I particularly love but I think this takes the cake. Hope you see this man wonderful playing..
You make my day. It seems you are real Pink Floyd lover... I listen Floyd when I need something to resolve... This song especially. Kudos go to Guido!!!
An amazing talent , the complex and difficult part were perfectly executed but the style and emotion in the slow sections…. Man . I never thought I’d like a solo acoustic version of this song so much
TAB: guidomancino.com/c1/
I love you bro , please marry me 🙃
Сам играю. Правда сейчас редко. Видно твой колоссальный труд.
Ведь этот труд уже искуство.
Браво!
Sounds amazing
السلام عليكم السلام علينا جميعا منا السلام وعليكم السلام عزف رائع وجميل لهده الاغنية الرائعة لمجموعة pink floyd شكرا استفدت كتيرا من عرضك هدا
Absolutely beautiful bro ‼️🙏🎸🤎
Anyone who is very very familiar with this song would be blown away by your performance. I've saved it and will be sharing it with everyone I know. As a guitar player I'm hypnotized dude!!
Absolutely stunning I couldn’t agree more
Потрясающая акустическая версия! 👍👍👍👋
Absolutely fantastic ❤
Cafe styles right thurr ❤
Wish I had kept up my playing style.
I have a 12string now. But suffer the trembles in my left hand 😢.
Hopefully, you're on tour nearby because you are absolutely incredible!! Awesome guitar playing!!!
The hardest part is to play it without any mistake in front of the camera that too for almost 9 minutes straight . One mistake would ruin the video . I could just imagine the amount of tries it took to get that one perfect flawless take in front of the camera.
At his skill level would not be surprised this was a one take effort..
If you’re on stage it’s 1 take !
Or the string who breaks under those bends
David Gilmour would be Impressed I think.
Anyone should be impressed

Man, I bet I cant be the only one who would be over the moon if you posted a tutorial.
Robbie Seltzer yes sir would be greatly appreciated!
Robbie Seltzer please yes please, tutorial!
I can only imagine the hours of work this took to develop and perfect. Bravo.
omg did you just say hours
the intro took me months
Thank u for inspiring to sell my guitar 🙌
It's absolutely amazing 😍
True
Anybody who has ever picked up the guitar should have nothing but praise for this performance. Bravo brother.
thank you
Arrangements like this make me fall in love with my guitar all over again. I'm floored
Dave Gilmour's on the phone asking if you give lessons?
this is why no one needs to take drugs , get high on reality and brilliance like this man has just shown us
This is a nice message!

Are you a Flamenco player? I noticed you played this on steel strings, pure brillance though
Spell bounding Top notch and this version Stands on its own , Pink Who? 👍😎🍀
Who are the 1000 lost souls who gave this the thumbs down! They have no idea how much of a masterpiece this is!

I've literally watched this a hundred times and I never get bored!
I can’t believe this is possible on acoustic guitar...I just can’t. GENIUS!
If you don't play guitar, you have no idea how fucking insane this is.
If you play the guitar you have an idea how difficult it is to play this :)
so fuckin insane
Absolutely..
I counted my remaining years of life only to reach a conclusion id cease to exist before I play like this, man literally perfect rhythm perfect notes perfect tempo👏👏👏
I got it. And it looks so effortless. It ain't.
To me this is the gold standard when it comes to acoustic guitar playing... congrats!
You made the acoustic guitar played whole band! there is a lead , base , rhythm, somehow percussion included too! excellent!
This is the best cover i have ever seen.
Это прям мистично, все нотки переданы без единой фальши, очень честно прозвучало, спасибо!
thank you for underlining the genuineness of my videos.
I’ve been playing guitar for over 30 years, and have quite a collection of some very fine guitars. After watching this I think it’s time to sell them all and just quit! This is amazing!!!!
Всякий раз смотрю и думаю,он играет за всю группу...БРАВО,в очередной раз.👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋
tuning is C G D G B E for anyone wondering
W1l Half great
i knew it wasnt standard😎
Totally and utterly STUNNING. WOW what an incredible guitarist you are.Thank you For Sharing your Talents to the world.
How does it feels to have best cover of this song on youtube?

Это тот случай,когда вслушиваешся в каждое прикосновение к струнам!Очень впечатляет!
спасибо :)
This is one the few occasions where I really want to be able to like a video more than once.
I don't know who the haters are that have given this a thumbs down, but they need to stop being jealous!
This is seriously awesome and very nicely done. The tone from the guitar and how you play sound amazing.
Man, you just rejected humanity, you're now a machine
Welcome my son...

I have always thought Pink Floyd was the Best thing that could happen to Rock 'n Roll.
Videos like yours confirm my statement.
Man!! This is insane!!
this man is deadass playing lead and rhythm at the same time
thank you!
this is the coolest cover of this song i’ve ever seen
I don't think I can overstate the degree of difficulty in this rendition. Phenomenal sir.
thank you ;)
Sharp, dark, lustful, passionate, tasteful, rich, pleasing, the way an acoustic should be played! You played it magnificently!
First class professional performance. Before RUclips, you would have to to gladly pay for a ticket to see this. Thank you, and I'm giving you a Standing O...
D.Gilmour is a guitar god. Nobody can play like him. But nobody can play like this guy also.
thanks ;)

А как он играет несколько партий сразу... это фантастика...
I'm always coming back here.
This is so... Well it's so Pink Floyd.
Nothing else.
The best cover i've ever heard, so far...
thank you
Holy shit, Guido. That was simply amazing. The whole band was in there. It sounded so complete.
So glad that RUclips blessed me with this masterful rendition. You nailed the solos completely on top of the chords. The arrangement is great, and satisfies someone who knows every single detail of the studio recording. Bravo.
Even if you don't like this song... you have to admit that this is one talented guitar player... just amazing talent... well done.
Thank you :)
For Syd, rest in peace
yeah, and also Rick.
David Gilmore would be proud, absolutely amazing arrangement ❤️😎🎸

Somehow, 776 people as of today found a way to thumbs down this rendition. WOW, just wow. This is an amazing cover and tribute to PF. Kudos Guido!
Jealousy

Every Pink Floyd will appreciate this. Absolutely great
The whole sound of this amazing piece of music played by a single guitar, just wow!
How can anybody dislike this?
It is great played and very relaxing
Think the dislikers are jealous about they can't play this song as he played

One of (if not) the most beautiful thing(s) I've ever heard. Thank you for this.
Thank you very much!! :)

Headless guitarists are always the best

@@GuidoMancinoTrue! I'm always playing and watching this video Guido. I never got bored with it. Best acoustic performance ever :-)
923 people are just jealous. How can you dislike music from heaven?

So happy to see people still discovering Guido
I never tire of hearing this beguiling interpretation. that blows you away. Really
Слушал 100 раз и еще буду слушать когда хочется спокойно отдохнуть. Акустика гитары с нижними нотами звучит неповторимо!
Didn’t think it could be done this way. Thanks for proving me wrong, it sounds freaking awesome!

mindblowing , this is a masterpiece !
thank you! thank you very much!!
hi guido
i really would like to learn this fantastic arrangement
can i have tab and how to play it please
per favore mi piace veramente
Damn, think this unlocked some THC my brain was holding in reserves from college.
;)
I usually don’t comment on RUclips but this is beautiful and I feel honoured to have listened.
Shine on you crazy diamond… thank you
Bloody masterpiece...how can you not like that? You just don't want it to end...
My cancer got perfectly cured after watching this masterpiece.
One of the most complete and well executed arrangements of any kind I have seen. Super work Maestro!
