I am playing guitar for more than 40 years now. His technique, toning and feel is just awesome. It‘s a pleasure to watch him play. What a superb talent. Please come to Germany and give us a chance to see you perform live on stage.
I always think that way....technique is important to reach your creative goals. That's hard work!! But....creativity is the thing!!! To be able create tonality landscapes in your head is where it ALL begins🙏😊and he has both👍😊
@@decomicssehablaasi Absolutely. One thing I'd like to add is that I love every time a thing like this happens. Us (the elderly :D) can always come up with names like "a prodigy", "wunderkind" or whatnot, which is NOT something I want to do here. I've always been inspired by people like this, and this is exactly that - young man Mancuso over here is only a couple of steps away from genius and every time I see that happen I just naturally get the urge to do more, play or compose - doesn't matter. I just do more... Yeah, that joke about burning the guitars was just a 'trendy' dad joke. :D I hope he continues his path and reaches greatness in the way only he imagined - we're merely the audience here, and listening closely. :)
His technique is awesome but compared to Guthrie govan, Al Dimeola, Steve Via, there is not much new. The music on the other hand is pretty special and thats the important thing after all.
Not really unique hahaha. Maybe for the electric guitarists. But asa classical guitarist myself, I mean he is just adapting it to the electric guitar. I actually do the same cuz I have no idea how to play with a pick hahah. But yeah he's good. It's more his musicality, his harmonies. And yeah, for an electric guitar player it's quite unusual
I love this guy's humble attitude and amazing playing. I don't consider myself a guitar player anymore, though I played for 20 years. I much more enjoy listening to music and seeing people like Matteo take music to another level.
As an italian myself of the same age of Matteo I can totally feel he's really a down to earth guy, can totally imagine him having a beer with friends or celebrating the national team winning euros or whatever. It's very nice cause I'm used to see always foreigner musicians and they vibe an "aura" to me, as they are great but unreachable, while Matteo is at the same time an amazing unbelievable player and just a guy from Sicily.
Totally agree that he is truly gifted, forthcoming on his influences and respectful towards the greats. Rick's interview style is perfect and this kid i a great interview. Check out Rick's other video where Matteo refers to the greats and includes Eddie Van Halen on the list. I think hes good enough to play " Eruption"? Hell yeah! Ty Rick for showing this 3-chord wonder the amazing things that can be done with our chosen instrument. Peace.
Yep, this is total insanity...almost inhuman. 99.9% of us could only listen and admire, realize we likely would not be able to replicate this. That being said, there is so, so much music in the world that is as good in its own unique way. The guitar solo on Taxman, Hotel California...Eliot Easton's tasty and exciting solos on The Cars tunes, the solo on Rock Around the Clock. Blackmore's Highway Star solo on the live Made In Japan album. The list is endless of great solos over the past 75 years, let's appreciate what he's done, it's spectacular. So is Comfortably Numb.
Amazing player, puh, he has some true magic in his hands, especially the right one. His tone and tech is just down right fantastic. Truly amazing, WOW.
Many years back I saw Deep Purple at the Beacon theatre in NYC. This iteration of the band was without Blackmore. Their lead guitarist (don't remember his name) played without a pick and used his fingers like Matteo. He too was amazing but in a rock style. Matteo's harmonic vocabulary, soloing and his dexterity is amazing.
So tasteful playing and honest humble answers. It was good to see this again. I actually watched the full interview on RB1. To tell the truth, if Rick hadn't mentioned this is his second channel, I'd never know because I've subscribed to both.
He is definitely the most unique new voice to modern electric guitar I've heard in a while. I welcome the music he'll make in the future especially as he learns to temper his musicality please slay me with just a couple of notes
I love how he tastefully uses one and two note per string motifs indispersed with arpeggio work and able to cut loose sparingly yet effectively with the more shreddier 3+ notes and tap. Undoubtably a unique player in the world of guitarists!
@davidebasile9422 picado technique is similar in the alternation of index and middle but way more difficult, as every note must be played "apoyando" which is actually what makes it very challenging and gives it the picado tone. also, picados are played in a spanish guitar, which is way more difficult and tone-sensible than an electric guitar with distortion, which makes it way easier to play with pull-ofs and pull-ons
@@urbanizeedDzn Yes, as I said, it is similar but there are also differences you mentioned. I just noted that not many mention picado technique when talking about how Matteo plays. Most rather compare it with bass technique. Anyway, in the interview with Rick Beato, Matteo mentions something about how he achieves the speed and also mentions something similar to apoyando, though again, it is not the same thing.
I wonder how much he's impacted by nerves, being in his own head, worried about what he's about to play, or other things like 90% of us guitarists. He's absolutely a beast. #1 favorite guitarist of mine in this current day and time.
Matteo is today's Mozart. Maestro Matteo dancing on the strings has set the bar so high, it may be another generation before that altitude is reached. His skill and artistry is so prolific as to astound every listener. We may be sure, John McLaughlin, Al DiMeola and others have reached out to this young man and handed him the jazz fusion baton to carry forward the innovation that made those men great.
This doesn't come from mere practic, however relentless. This is a spark. People like these have something that the rest of us simply lack. Not fair, but there it is.
That’s a custom shop Yamaha made to Mateo’s specs. It is not a production model, but the new Revstars are definitely influenced by it. Particularly, the bridge and chambered body.
It amazes me how much he uses his right hand when he plays - definitely a different technique than most guitarists I'm used to seeing. I'm glad I ran across him in a Joe Bonamassa video.
Exactly! When he said it not rock and it's not Jazz, it's something else... I thought, yeah it's Holdsworth lol it couldn't sound more like him but it's amazing he's finger-picking that type of playing even Allen would think that's crazy.
I knew Allan Holdsworth when I met him in 1970s, when he was in Igginbotton’s Wrench, while I was working for the Guitar shop Sound City, in Londons Shaftesbury Ave, London W1. He and his othere guitarist Steven Robinson. They came in to borrow a couple of Hofner solid bodied Guitars.They were playing up stairs at Ronnie Scots, in Londons Frith St that night. I went with them to see the band. From March 73-Jan 75, I was working for the Guitar shop Top Gear, 5 Denmark St, London WC2 and its sister shop, Guitar Village in Shaftesbury, London W1. I mainly worked at Guitar Village. Allan Holdsworth was a friend of the shop and if he was ever in the area, he would pop in for a coffee and a chat. Alan was amazing Violin player and some time he would pick up a guitar and tease the staff (X3) who were all guitar players, with some of his amazing rifts. Our manager, the late Guy Mason, left the company to be come Allans guitar tech.
Matteo Mancuso is one of the greatest living guitar players today, which in a deluge of great musicians says it all. His tone, feel, cadence, spacing composition are damn near perfect and he understands that technique exists in the service of Art, not the other way around. Matteo plays nylon string guitar with the same command he plays electric. He is a musician's musician.
Somebody with a lot of vision in Yamaha put those underrated instruments in his hands. Chris Buck is another Revstar fan. I notice that all the players in his groups are on Yamahas too drums boards etc. Affordable but high end gear for all musicians IMO. What an amazing talented guy he is….. and all the guys he plays with too!!
I love Matteo's creativity. If he added more dynamic picking, he'd be a god. Like the run at 1:01 , if some of those notes were emphasised and others were ghost notes, it'd be perfect imo. Very excited about his future projects
Yeah, that whole evenness thing and being so smooth is so trashy. If he just added some notes that didn't speak well, he'd be a god... yeah, that's it. 👌 😂😂😂😂😂
@@didamnesia3575 Replying to an 8 month old comment, changing my statement, straw manning, then laughing at yourself is peak brain-dead shi. You're a weirdo.
I’ve been playing for 54 years and he is the most precise player I’ve ever heard. Every note is perfect. No string buzz. No bum notes. Barely a hammer on or pull off. But why the capo so much? I’ve not watched this yet.
Extremely and unbelievably clever and is the result of years of unrelenting dedication and hard work. However, I am unable to listen to the music without imagining being in a lift or a superstore. I really wish that I could appreciate this style because I know that I’m missing out on something very special.
OK weird coincidence. I was just watching a video on the life of Allan Holdsworth a few minutes ago and this video premiered as soon as I finished it. As soon as I heard this guy, I immediately said "man, he sounds like Holdsworth" 🤣
Matteo's English has improved significantly, so now he's revealing to the English-speaking fans that he's not only the best guitarist working today but also a deep thinker about music too. Interestingly enough, Holdsworth too claimed he was inspired by a great sax player, John Coltrane.
All wonderful comments. I would say that it is as simple as- we are watching the emergence of the most skilled and exciting guitarist in the world. What an exciting discovery!
Matteo!!! Orgoglio Italiano!!! Sei un chitarrista pazzesco e ascoltarti è un tripudio per i miei padiglioni auricolari ahaha continua sempre così con questo amore e umiltà che sei grande!
2:44 "wow, amazing" Rick! WTF! I would be with my jaw hanging open, foaming at my mouth. How is it possible to achieve that level of mastery and clarity? Are we in front of the guitarist with the most polished technique to date? Steve Vai looks like a beginner next to him.
I am playing guitar for more than 40 years now. His technique, toning and feel is just awesome. It‘s a pleasure to watch him play. What a superb talent. Please come to Germany and give us a chance to see you perform live on stage.
He may be the next greatest...
I wanna here him do bluegrass and country.
@@youropionmattersnot check the video where he plays a Brent Mason tune
He's coming to Hamburg and Berlin
Hopefully you were able to see him in Mannheim in September at the Guitar Summit? What an amazing performance.
Forget about the technique, every single note (harmonies included) in that song is exactly in the right place.
Thom Yorke would agree. Everything In The Right Place
I always think that way....technique is important to reach your creative goals. That's hard work!! But....creativity is the thing!!! To be able create tonality landscapes in your head is where it ALL begins🙏😊and he has both👍😊
100% you can spend years and figure out the technique, but the music and melody sense, thats talent.
@@decomicssehablaasi Absolutely. One thing I'd like to add is that I love every time a thing like this happens.

Preternatural, A.I.-level technique combined with supremely interesting phrasing and note-choice. Absolutely phenomenal.
His right hand technique is insane! So good, so unique
Not really unique hahaha. Maybe for the electric guitarists. But asa classical guitarist myself, I mean he is just adapting it to the electric guitar. I actually do the same cuz I have no idea how to play with a pick hahah. But yeah he's good. It's more his musicality, his harmonies. And yeah, for an electric guitar player it's quite unusual
This is Claudio Quartarone s technique
I love this guy's humble attitude and amazing playing. I don't consider myself a guitar player anymore, though I played for 20 years. I much more enjoy listening to music and seeing people like Matteo take music to another level.
Watching Matteo reminds me of when I first saw Eric Johnson in the late 80s/early 90s. Amazing
I agree. The tone of Matteo's guitar, plus the overall piece, is reminiscent of Cliffs of Dover by Eric Johnson.
As an italian myself of the same age of Matteo I can totally feel he's really a down to earth guy, can totally imagine him having a beer with friends or celebrating the national team winning euros or whatever. It's very nice cause I'm used to see always foreigner musicians and they vibe an "aura" to me, as they are great but unreachable, while Matteo is at the same time an amazing unbelievable player and just a guy from Sicily.

1:30 - 1:34 This lick has been hypnotizing me these days. I can't stop listening
This Has being out in this planet for years and years

Hello from Covington Georgia!
The only problem with this video is I can only like it once. YT needs more hype buttons.
I did three times: i have three accounts
@@AlexandreLuiz-ph8ns This is the way
I love this guy! He's everything in one awesome package! He can play like a mf'er, he's humble, he's totally adorable and he's nice. 😊
Amazing player, puh, he has some true magic in his hands, especially the right one. His tone and tech is just down right fantastic. Truly amazing, WOW.
Absolutely nutty how clean his bass style picking is.
He comes from the classical guitar which is why he plays in this way, in that way he can make more notes than with the plectrum
Many years back I saw Deep Purple at the Beacon theatre in NYC. This iteration of the band was without Blackmore. Their lead guitarist (don't remember his name) played without a pick and used his fingers like Matteo. He too was amazing but in a rock style. Matteo's harmonic vocabulary, soloing and his dexterity is amazing.
Everybody check out Matteo's first album released a few months ago it's call the journey. Great album!
E per completare ti consiglio drift lab progetto sempre con mancuso ma anche Federico Malaman al basso ecc
So tasteful playing and honest humble answers. It was good to see this again. I actually watched the full interview on RB1. To tell the truth, if Rick hadn't mentioned this is his second channel, I'd never know because I've subscribed to both.
Just completely immaculate, every aspect of the music and performance.
He is definitely the most unique new voice to modern electric guitar I've heard in a while. I welcome the music he'll make in the future especially as he learns to temper his musicality please slay me with just a couple of notes
The melodies are wonderful. The riffing connects it all together and the visual is incredible.
To be honest I've heard of Matteo but never listened to him, wow this dude is insane.
More!
I'd never even heard of him till like 2 days ago when I watched a short, the young man is absolutely incredible!!
I love how he tastefully uses one and two note per string motifs indispersed with arpeggio work and able to cut loose sparingly yet effectively with the more shreddier 3+ notes and tap. Undoubtably a unique player in the world of guitarists!
Never seen that right hand finger bass picking technique. He's very quick, smooth and accurate with it too. I liked this.
Hes actually using classical guitar technique, pretty interesting
@@Jordarr8994 there is also a flamenco technique, called picado, which is very similar
James Taylor does something similar on an acoustic guitar to create a bass line. I've heard Leland Sklar talk about it.
@davidebasile9422 picado technique is similar in the alternation of index and middle but way more difficult, as every note must be played "apoyando" which is actually what makes it very challenging and gives it the picado tone. also, picados are played in a spanish guitar, which is way more difficult and tone-sensible than an electric guitar with distortion, which makes it way easier to play with pull-ofs and pull-ons

Lol calm down.
Man you're simping to a different level. Take it easy
As unbelievable as his technique is, his vocabulary and improvisational freedom are just otherworldly, man. Cheers from Baton Rouge :)
This is so cool to see a totally new guitarist. This guy is so unique , epically talented.
This doesn't come from mere practic, however relentless. This is a spark. People like these have something that the rest of us simply lack. Not fair, but there it is.
He makes me laugh and cry at the same time out of just pure amazement!
It is all about Jazz Rock & Fusion and has being in this World for YEARS AND YEARS .
I love the tone. It sounds really good. Great guitarist .
That's some PlayStation racing game music!
And some fighting games music too!
Gt vibes!
I am as fascinated watching what his right hand is doing as much as his left hand!
This was a great episode, and Mancuso is awesome! I'd love to see you interview Andy Wood at some point. He's another next-level player.
Sounds very Return to Forever to me. Nice! What a classy player. Fantastic technique but more importantly, *_bursting with music....._*
Hey that's one of the new Yamaha guitars I think. Wow this guy is great!
That’s a custom shop Yamaha made to Mateo’s specs. It is not a production model, but the new Revstars are definitely influenced by it. Particularly, the bridge and chambered body.
It amazes me how much he uses his right hand when he plays - definitely a different technique than most guitarists I'm used to seeing. I'm glad I ran across him in a Joe Bonamassa video.
It's fun to watch him play. You can tell he's really into it just by the way his jaw moves and his body posture.
Simply a jaw dropping amazing player!
Beautiful song man. Melodic and complex at the same time.Great player. Loved the clean notes 🎶.
Getting that album! Thank you for this!
Welcome to the future of guitar playing. This is a quantum leap. Bravo, Matteo
If someone played only the audio of this I’d SWEAR I was listening to ALLAN HOLDSWORTH!!!
RIP my friend!!🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
Here's one for Mateo ❤, here's one for Allan (RIP) ❤.
They ARE totally different ..BUT the quest for holy Grail still goes on....
Exactly! When he said it not rock and it's not Jazz, it's something else... I thought, yeah it's Holdsworth lol it couldn't sound more like him but it's amazing he's finger-picking that type of playing even Allen would think that's crazy.

It’s a fret wrap. Helps deaden strings and keep the playing clean. I’m thinking of trying one, too since I rarely, if ever, play near the nut.
Yup, fret wrap, not capo.
@@davidkeller6156 I see. I've never tried one.
Fret wraps are dope. They clean up the playing a little bit but some might not notice the difference. Give them a try tho

I hear EJ in his playing almost more than anyone else. This cat is just unreal.
Holdsworth
I've always had a soft spot for thoes sg looking yamahas.
Absolutely Amazing! WOW.
He also possess something many great musicians don’t. Humility. I love not only his playing but just listening to him talk. 👍🏻
Saw him with Cory Wong at NAMM. so good.
I saw that too. Great stuff!
OK weird coincidence. I was just watching a video on the life of Allan Holdsworth a few minutes ago and this video premiered as soon as I finished it. As soon as I heard this guy, I immediately said "man, he sounds like Holdsworth" 🤣

So clean man
That intro was ridiculous. He's amazing to say the least.
Wow, it's his song. I thought he was playing a Holdsworth piece.. Impressive young man. Best playing i've heard since Gunthrie.
What about Max Ostrow?
