It's truly rare these days to see something new. This is new. A lot of guitar players are going to start going down this learning path now. Bravo. He's humble and confident, should inspire many generations to come.
@@consulentecomunicazionestr3072 well, you re right in a strict geographical sense, but I meant "South of Italy" as the former "2 Sicilies Kingdom" which was a political unit of Southern regions and Sicily. I use to refer to that. Cheers🙃
People always focus on Matteo's right-hand technique. His left-hand technique is much more impressive in my opinion. How much pressure he puts when fretting a note, the control of dynamics, and his finger tone are next level.
I agree with you but I think people - including myself - have never seen a jazz, jazz-fusion guitarist play so fast and so beautifully picking the strings without a pick precisely. Even Joe Pass, who played a lot with his left-hand fingers ended up using a pick when having to plays real fast.
I share your appreciation for Allan Holdsworth and had the great pleasure of meeting him several times over the years. But I very much admire your playing and am now a big fan of yours. Way beyond us mere mortals.
@@k.padraigokane1472 here at +10.000 hrs, graduated as session guitarist and still cannot play like him.He is a genius and only a few people in the world can reach that level, specially if consider his right hand technique, but dont think me wrong, it is better if you try at least...
Wow!, playing a very complex Allan Holdsworths piece "Fred" and without pick, now that's insane!😮. One of the 1% top UA-cam guitarists there is. I've been watching about a thousand videos of electric guitarists since 2010 and I think finally, someone is about to dethrone Guthrie Govan as the best guitarist of the Decade. 2010 -2020 which he ones ruled. Mateo ftw!🤘
For those interested, in an italian interview he once stated how started playing guitar (electric) at the age of 10-11, mainly inspired by rock metal artists, but didn't get much serious until 14 when he also took classical guitar lessons. At 16 he fell in love with jazz
The constant tuning of that guitar would drive me nuts. Not sure how he deals with that every time he touches the fretboard. Matteo, you are 1 in a million, my friend. Cheers!
The run/lick he does at 15:42 is Frank Gambale spot on! LOL! It just goes to show what happens when someone starts playing guitar in something like a "fish bowl" where you have no PRECONCEIVED notions or limitations about HOW to play or WHAT to play. His right hand plucking style is something that was born of necessity since he was unaware that you even SHOULD use a pick. He's basically a musican born of sheer providence. As far has his "fusion focused" style goes: It's all a matter on what music your "raised on" as a player. If he'd been born 30 years ago, he would have been learning Van Halen. Vai, Satriani, Yngine, Gilbert, etc. etc. style lines, licks, songs, etc. etc.. when "fusion" as a style was still in it's infancy (relatively speaking - even though I do see he can play EJ runs well 25:52) Bottom line: Whatever a Player learns "note for note" as he/she grows into the instrument, those are the note choices, phrasing, sounds, etc. that will form the basis of their technique and "style" and so they will end up "sounding" like them until they begin branching out into their own "voice", which takes decades.
No doubt mastering this right hand technique mixture isn’t a matter of a few weeks (not even months), but I have decided to put away my picks for some time and play with my fingers, even though in my hands all I get from my guitar is noise and loads of harmonics all the time. That is, a total unclean sound. But I will keep going, since Mr. Mancuso has proven it is possible to make a guitar sound the same with or without a plectrum. Of course, I’m aware that means starting from scratch.
Quelle mani non possono suonare uno strumento che necessita di essere accordato ogni 30 secondi. Lo strumento non deve darti pensieri di questo tipo durante le esecuzioni, ha maggior ragione con un talento incredibile come il tuo.
I notice that his yamaha guitar doesn't stay in tune , seems a reccuring problem ,even when he performs on stage, can Yamaha team do something for him ?
@@Molcrid Headless design is undeniably an improvement when it comes to string changes, ease of tuning, and staying in tune. You're also less likely to smack someone with the head of the guitar, can't accidentally snap it off, and it's more compact.
Caro Matteo, sei IMHO insieme a Guthrie Govan al top della chitarra elettrica mondiale. Tu e Mike Dawes nell'acustica siete la nuova generazione di guitar heroes
Shadows was active in the sixties not in the seventies. It was a British guitar instrumental group, I would not say country band , even Apache is actually american- like song.
hueseph I have tried most of good and great guitars including Yamahas , he is probably endorsed by Yamaha that’s all, I just think Suhr would suits more for his style of playing ! This guy deserves better than Yamaha! Peace
@@olshov111 why do people always pick out guitars that "may suit" the player - look and acknowledge his skill. He would make any guitar sound great.....
Man, been fighting with the pick for 4 years, trying all angles and approaches, and always wanted to switch over to finger style but did not find a way to play clean lines, always sounded like Mark Knopfler or Country (nothing bad but its limiting). This kid found a way aproaching the guitar a bit like a bass, but he has to dampen the strings with a rubber band or they will ring out.
Much of the time he does not use the damper, and he still has total control of the strings. I never hear the unwanted ringing of the open g string, or any string.
Phenomenal player. The tuning was a real issue, l wonder why. I suspect a design flaw with the guitar, perhaps it needs locking nuts or something, but he shouldn’t have to be hampered by such a fundamental issue.
Probably the change in climate from Italy to Russia. For all we know he got off the plane and right to the Clinic without so much as a truss rod adjustment. Being said these and all guitars benefit greatly from a properly cut nut.
Bravissimo Matteo. Ci siamo incontrati da Guitar Point a Palermo, ti rinnovo i miei complimenti. 👍 Una domanda, il brano "Polifemo" é tuo? Buon divertimento👍🎸☺️
никаких вопросов, как занимается, чем занимается, снимает ли или выучивает по нотам, импровизирует ли он теппингом или это выученные фишки. как занимается импровизацией, как мыслит. великолепный гитарист, но абсолютно никто не подготовился, ничего интересного не спросил и организаторы могли бы хоть чтото спросить. за это поставил бы минус, но не буду ..
vlad vashchenko спасибо за комментарий, в силу ограничения по времени не все смогли задать вопросы, но вы можете посмотреть другие наши трансляции Маттео, где он точно рассматривал эти моменты.

Matteo Mancuso is one of in a billion! Thanks Yamaha to organizing this clinics, Matteo brings a lot of value to your brand!
One of in eight billions!

A great showcase for this phenomenal player. Thank goodness the backing tracks are kept low in volume throughout!
I've never felt so greatful for masterclasses like this
30:45 the trait of a great improviser, people always talk about his clean technique but this shows how creative this guy is.
what
he just tuned the guitar lol
Thats just Bad asteroid from the aristocrats, it's a cool song, but it's not improv
The price of talent..and fame the slightest mistake watched and moche.. by jealous rats
Legs crossed and chill, like he's hanging out in his bedroom. Love it.

Why do you need a pick to play Holdsworth? He's know for his Lagato!
Better saying one of the best jazz/fusion guitarists in the world now, or one of the greatest guitar talents coming out in the last 2 centuries
Bravo Matteo, veramente sharp and also wise for his age. Forza Palermo....
I love how he acknowledges Allan Holdsworth. Allan is the the precursor to this new generation of player no matter what genre it is...
I wish he would have talked about how he went about learning jazz, fusion, etc., and how and what he practiced.
That would be cool, but I'm not sure how much mere mortals would be able to adapt to themselves.

Those of us that are mere mortals owe so much to those that are consumed by their gift
Exceptionally good! Cool technique!
The way this guy uses his fingers i would think he was using a pick, brilliant player.
Your style catch the best from all the others. Is the Jeet-Kun-Do of guitar playing
esatto!
Amazing player. Would love to hear some original stuff too.
Try searching for snips. He plays with the band
His first album is out now

What is the black attachment near the nut? Capo or damper?
Yes. It's a strap/wrap dampner called "FretWraps String Muter".

molto più delicato e di classe che govan, la speranza che ci siano sempre meno chitarristi metal e sempre più chitarristi jazz funk e soul
Non c'è paragone. È enormemente superiore a Govan sotto tutti i punti di vista
Great technique and most talented out there but no taste in composition selection. Holdsworth is junk that only guitarists would like.
So the artist has no taste, whereas you do. How does that work?
Not sure if you noticed, but it is a guitar clinic
