This guy could give MAB a run for his money..

Was perusing FB Marketplace and this add for a Kramer Nightswan reissue caught my eye. Check the video, if this dude is legit, he could give Michael Angelo Batio a run for his money. Not really my thing, but dang!

Insane sweeping

Near meant!

If dude can play like that, I'll give him a pass on grammar. Might have spent all his time practicing instead of edumacatin'.

Haha that's great. Good Ole Boy shreddin is always fun to see.

Dude's got a killer right hand, too.

 

[BeZo]

Looks like the guitar plays pretty good.

 

[GuitarGuy08]

Definitely not my thing anymore but that guy was shredding HARD. Damn man. Never have been into MAB but he is insanely talented and seems like a nice guy.

 

[psychodave]

That sounded terrible. As long as he’s having fun

 

[braintheory]

The link doesn’t seem to work for me

 

[Kapo_Polenton]

He most definitely got the keys to the Lamborghini.

I don’t Facebook so it issued me the access denied response.

Wanna hear shit like that I just turn Nintendo 8-bit or Sega Master System on.

That intro lead looks like he can jerk his meat in about 30 seconds.

I mean he's really talented at playing un
musical sweeping really fast

It would have showed off his skills better if he did actual guitar playing inbetween the big sweep and shred runs

Honestly this is kind of an example of how little your chops matter if you don't have any musicality

Henning is better than him.

Henning is better than him.

I don't know if I'd go THAT far, but at least HP tries to write music

I mean it's really basic, boring, banal music

But he tries

 

[guitup too]

Mechanically very impressive while being very non musical to my ears

 

[braintheory]

The link worked for me now. I agree with the unmusical part. As for skill vs MAB, I don't think so. He definitely has the speed itself, but it's hard from the clip to really gauge accuracy and evenness in the note spacing on the sweeps. That's what actually makes MAB technically better than most guys. MAB is far from being the fastest or the most musical, but one of the most accurate and even. Most sweepers are actually sloppy and uneven, like Jason Becker and Yngwie as some examples, but those guys have feel and other things going for them. Lots of guys can play super fast sweeps that are good enough to sound really impressive to most when really they are uneven and sloppy and you hear it if you slowed down the video on YouTube. My 2 cents on the topic
