Greg's playing has always been the perfect mix of shredding, groove and soulfulness.
marc777danielle Yep - 'perfect'.
quite simply, he's a beast...no denial of that fact is possible lol
+Ross Warren agreed.
any attempt in trying to debunk that would fail tragically.
***** yeah. His son is playing drums for Animals as Leaders
b garsed is amazing. Dark Matter is probably my fav work from him. but i'm familiar with all his tunes. w/ tj helmmerich and planet x and all that.
Frank Gambale Greg Howe Guthrie Govan is the perfect fusion G3!
Wow !! That would be very cool..I've seen Gambale & Govan..going to see Greg this Aug. in San Diego..
YEEESSS !!!!
And now, would add Matteo Mancuso for the G4!
@@Nedwin AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH no.
I think my head would pop if I saw that gig.
To this day I still come back for the opening jam! I don’t think I’ve ever actually watched the whole video. I just rewind when he’s done playing 🤘
Aside from being an awesome fusion shredder, I had no idea Greg Howe is so amazing at demoing gear. He looks and sounds so polished/articulate when he speaks. Carvin should hire Greg to do all their demos - this guy rocks. Sweet guitar/amp too!
+Nick Pop I was just thinking the same thing. That was the best demo/explanation of gear I've ever heard.
Nick Pop are you white?
Fuckin' bad ass. Swagger, it's all there. The slow notes are as killer as the fast ones. I always watch this intro 4-5 times before moving on.
Doug Steele fuk inn oath brother \m/
He's as articulate a speaker as he is a player...great demo !!
Greg is an absolute class act and one of the nicest most humble guys you will ever meet. See you at Rod's shop , Greg!
The true king of Fusion!!
tonykratos I'm a fan of Greg but I wouldn't say that. Fusion is a really broad term. This type of fusion is very different from the jazzier type of fusion like John Scofield, Allan Holdsworth, Mike Stern, Scott Henderson, Wayne Krantz. Harmonically and rhythmically. This type of fusion is more aimed towards rock and metal guitar players.
Not trying to sound rude, but I strongly recommend taking studying jazz harmony and jazz melody a lot more before comparing Greg and Allan. Greg is rock-fusion and the other one is JAZZ-fusion. There are BIG harmonic textural differences between them.
The differences between Allan and Greg might seem small to most rock players but if you have been interested in jazz for a long time you'll hear the BIG difference between the harmonic and melodic content of Allan Holdsworth and Greg Howe. It's not just the amount of gain or technique or style they're using.
In the "jazzier type" of fusion you can look to Pat Metheny, early-Scott Henderson, Frank Gambale, John Scofield or Michael Brecker for that matter If you want to actually hear HARMONY and not just the shred licks/rock techniques and to actually outline chord changes in more than a haphazard way.
Don't get me wrong, I'm a fan of Greg because he's one of the few rock players who understand the importance of harmony and rhythm when it comes to improvising over changes (unlike a very famous "fusion" guitarist whose name start with "S"), but Greg's way of playing over changes is different for those jazz-fusion guys who hear harmony with a lot more precision like let's say like those who play over changes habitually (Allan Holdsworth, Ben Monder, John Scofield, Adam Rogers or Scott Henderson for example).
+Eduardo Allo No, it's not Steve Vai (I'm assuming you're thinking of him)
@@TheVintageyear fun fact is that i have been to a greg's clinic back in 2008/2009 and he liked to refer to himself as a rock guitar player with some jazzy licks.
He's really a nice guy who would never compare himself to other guitar legends; he also said he was very grateful to allan for what he learned from him.
"The true king of Fusion!!" #ytmostidioticcomments
fucking incredible guitar player so underrated
+full stack he's not underrated by any means.
+Karl Lagerfeuer Agreed, those who know, know Greg Howe
+Karl Lagerfeuer when u see how much hype and praise govan gets then he is underrated u listen from introspection through hyperacuity the man has his own tone and is unmatched
+full stack I agree he's incredible, but, underrated? by who? haha
+full stack I don't believe he's underrated. He has played with the King of Pop, Michael Jackson.
One of the most well spoken music artists out there, he plays like he talks if u think about it lol
I think some of these debates comparing players is a little ridiculous. Especially comparing "fusion players." They each have their own style and sound; the phrasing, note choices, tone, techniques used, etc. They are ALL AWESOME!
Wow. I think the master has his best tone ever yet. Thanks to Carvin and Dv Mark. Lovin this..
Been playing all my life and I’m 51. Greg is now my favorite. You can’t touch this guy.
mind blown every moment Greg plays! Been a huge fan since the early years.
I did a studio gig in the early 2000s and he was the guitar player, he was very impressive and a very nice guy.
Sounding great as always Greg!
Best tone you've ever had! Loved the jam at the beginning!
Thank you Greg, I follow your music since Shrapnel’s years, with HOWE II, and your later fusion and jazzy touch open my ears and my brain to the eclectic beautiful of your music. Thank you from the bottom of my soul. Because just only with your notes you grown me to be a better man. Thank you again.
A true master and a gentleman , thanks for the rundown Greg, just fabulous!
Congratulations Greg...Awesome sounding. .
Thanks for the rundown on your gear,sounds great.Love the versatility!
i just cant stop listening to this OUTSTANDING improvisation at the beggining of this video ... i hope he will include this improv into his next solo album as a track .
always enjoyed your playing greg, thx for the video
Sounds great Greg! Awesome! Congrats!
Simply amazing, Greg! One of my biggest idols!
I NEED one of those guitars!! Everything is PERFECT on it.
No one plays better than Greg.
Not sure if you will ever see this Greg...but i will say to you keep inspiring!! Its been a long time. I haven't seen you, but I've seen your brother in the past. We talked for a few mins, and it was great to see him. I've followed several stages of all you've accomplished. Its been a long time since BMRR. I won't give it all out, but it was the street you grew up on and when you and your brother use to help me as a very youg kid. The family is proud of you and i am very happy on how you have succeeded. I will never forget your performances with DUKE from our highschool to the local bars in town. Damn. Long time. Good luck my friend and best wishes.
seriously. Can't ever think of a solo I've heard from this guy that I don't like. Is and will always be one of the greatest.
Like fine wine, gets better with age... Greg is amazing and sounds better than ever...
Amazing GREG HOWE! Precision, class, good taste, kill licks and phrasing in a rhythmic ballet of quick finger! THE KING OF FUSION!!!
So much groove and awesome phrasing! Great tone and feel :-o
Great demo's.. love the sound from his new gear..so punchy and warm..👌
Great stuff and great playing,Greg!
Finally a proper DV Mark Maragold demo! Took a while to hear this amp properly.
I played the amount today at guitar center. All I can say is the thing is amazing. ..great clean channel. One of the best I've tried. This video doesn't do enough justice to how GREAT it sounds....and feels to play. The gain channel is like s smooth Marshall...but warmer.....lots of gain. Loved it.
sounds amazing greg! :D i love the tone of that guitar
I'm so blessed to have grown up in the 80s... guys like this were everywhere... the talent was incredible
Great playing, great tone, and he seems like a down to earth person. One of the few shredders I like. He has a lot of feeling in his playing.
What an amazing guy. Fluent and clear explanations!
blown of mind! very cool, best ive seen in years!!!
Always intellectual, not just in interviews or demos, but also in actual playing.
Thanks for the inspiration, Greg!
Awesome Greg! Cheers from Brazil!
Awesome, as always!
Beautiful guitar Greg!
Slammin guitar and amp combination. Played them at NAMM. Wow. Can't wait to get this.
Does anyone else want more videos of Greg doing his thing? Put up some classics please!
Just ordered the GH24. Can't wait. Thanks Greg
Kyle Kandrick Did you get it yet as i ordered mine today with just one difference a flamed maple neck instead off plain maple! Does its sound ok?
That carvin is a cool axe but I still love your original 80's fender strat, wow you certainly took the guitar player world to another level. Amazing player.
So true !! I love that guitar . Thats my favorite one for sure . 2nd would be the blueish ESP he plays and 3rd would be the Luguna
I still love the groove / pulse of your lines.
Greg is such an articulate and thoughtful person - makes sense, given his sophisticated playing. I enjoy the fact that he's not a meathead. I always enjoy his playing - he definitely needs more recognition!
I've got to say, this muf/ this dude is bad assed fo realll... I've been following him since he started, for all of us that guitar world was our people magazine, this brother, of which he and I share similar heritage, has taken up the gauntlet of guitar playing to a whole new level!!! :-)
What's y'all heritage? He looks Black/Native to me.
LOVE that guitar!
Monster!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You're amazing!!!! Thanks for existing!! God bless you forever!!!!
So amazing. Great teacher too.
wow, spectacular, Greg rocks!!
Nice playing and technique. You're a guitar guru that mix a lot of styles and music compass. I'm your fan and you're a inspiration to thousands of guitarrists around the world. Since I've listened your first LP recorded in 1988 I couldn't imagine it was possible play that feeling and speed. I just doesn't know how have you developed all of these techniques. Success in your career and I hope someday to watch a Workshop. See ya!!!!
Underated guitarist, reaaallly good
Underated ? No ! He is amazing and people who think the opposite are rare ! He is juste humble and is not trying to always be under the spotlights i guess :)
Underrated by who!!
@@KONAMAN100 he's not named very often. should get allot more recognition.
@@aryinc I think it's non show off personality. He's jeans T shirt guitar.
@@KONAMAN100 i agree, i also think it's that. just a guy having fun on guitar and enjoying people.
simply an amazing fusion playa +++ crytal clear explanations
great sounding amp
my main inspiration to play guitar right there. Greg keep up the playing bro
Great! hope to hear an instrumental album from you soon!
Greg Howe by far is one of the best players on the planet. It's not only his ability on the fretboard but his creativity which sets him apart. Listen to his CDs. Some of the most amazing music you will ever hear.
Met him at NAMM years ago, total class act!
Well done Mr. Howe...well done my friend...
🙏🏽🎶🎸💥
Monster. I love his playing.
If you didn't see how good Greg Howe is you would find it hard to believe? Just phenomenal!
Greg Howe rules ! Awesome feeling ...
Nice to see Greg getting picked up by a really good company, Carvin. I couldn't understand why he played those Laguna's for a few years, there had to be other companies out there willing to endorse him. I play Ibanez myself but Carvins are super well made with a plethora of options. Very very nice guitars and Greg's looks like candy. Amazing player, a great influence to have in any players ear.
+Kris Ross Well said! I hated the fact that he played such a crappy guitar. Laguna made some horrible guitars. In all fairness, I never saw the model he played. But the rest were crappy!!
One of the best !
I love his tone..
Man this guy kills it, wow.
i always have been a huge fan from Greg Howe. He gets better and better, really scary !
godly chops
Greg Howe, one of the truly transcendent players of our time. Played the Maragold the other day, really a great amp for lead...funny too, I do the "basketball test" with every amp I buy, didn't know anyone else did that! The DV passed with flying colors, not exactly a heavy rock or metal amp, but does the "instrumental rock" thing better than anything else out there.
*Very cool ! Greetings from Spain !*
Une virtuosité de la guitare impressionnante !
Incredible timbre!
0:24 that low note always hits me at the pit of my soul 🎸
Sick intro!!!🔥🔥⚡️
Amazing, I love it .
probably the most unique style ive seen out of a shredder... unorthodox to the max...
His playing with Tetsuo Sakurai is amazing. With Dennis chambers...wow
How can 13 people not like! Greg Howe is a legend
Steve Williams they don't get it
It's the right of free oppinion.
That is just sick!
Fantastic .
Que fluidez que tiene para tocar Greg !! Genio genio del fusion!!!
Best of the Best!!
Greg Howe Is Absolutely A Legend!
Awesome Greg....just awesome! #style #technique #sound
Great playing and great tone.
one of the best...
If then i need two of these amps.......nice demo!!
Greg howe is the true maestro!!
If ever there was a maestro in MY life, Greg is the man.
ultimate shredder Mr Howe 2nd to none!
Super dude man!! give it all!!
Greg haves very similar style with tony Macalpine and very humble like him curiously tony played carving guitars on the past 6 and 7 strings guitars were very cool and the reason why tony left carvin was due to the 8 strings guitar with floyd and only Ibanez makes come true his 8 strings guitar dream .
Satriani on 2010 switches to 24 frets too , Vai ( many years ago ) , Guthrie Gorvan and Howe very nice team of 24 frets
Legend.
a master right there....
Fabuloso ! Felicidades Greg !!!
