"HELL YEAH! I got myself a Randy Rhoads guitar...but since I'm asian Paul Gilbert is actually my favorite guitar player... oh what the hell! I'll just mix the guitars together so it looks cool and kind of original!"
I thought it sounded better slow, only because it allowed for all the flavours to come through. However, these guys are trying to stump us shred freaks. But, each little lick can be used in isolation. When these licks are used in isolation and played fast, it sounds really cool.
@killboxxy Depends on the style you wanna make really, just because you can play fast doesnt mean your the best guitarist, it just means you play the fastest. personally im not gonna force myself to play fast because its "cool" i wanna make something thats cool because i like it...if its fast then fine but im not gonna speed something up lol
@killboxxy in that case, your doing it wrong. im not talking about chords either...you can play lead guitar as fast or as slow as you want...personally i prefer people who play reasonably fast but atleast put some feeling into it..i couldnt care less how fast it is. fast things bore me
One of the best ones in ages, gonna check this man;s band out now...
he had to do it to make it feel like a cello like he was used to
Amazing lesson, John!
That is the most impressive display of betcha can't play this I have ever witnessed.
I love how controlled and clean he picks with the movement of the fingers holding the pick. :o
That's some of the cleanest playing I heard from such old guitar videos
Never heard of this band, but this guy is insanely talented. Glad UA-cam thought to suggest it.
his playin' is so fucking clean!! great ;)
All these comments about his "uber fingers" made my day :D
Reminds me of both Emil Werstler and James Murphy, sounds amazing!
Dude ur vibrato on ur strings are amazing!!!!!!!
I expected something lame, but this guy just rocked my socks!
"Hi this is John Li from Order of Ennead, and I betcha can't play this"
*shred*
Me "nope"
He's like the talented brother of Herman Li! :D
fuckings awesomes guitars.
Sadly, this is the most original lick I've heard all year.
The second time wasn't even slow how do you play like that
best betcha can't play this I've EVER seen
"HELL YEAH! I got myself a Randy Rhoads guitar...but since I'm asian Paul Gilbert is actually my favorite guitar player... oh what the hell! I'll just mix the guitars together so it looks cool and kind of original!"
Awesome lick!
I was not expecting that, really well phased - in my opinion
you see this guy and think " man this is gonna be easy". ten seconds in:" WTF???"
this guy is my new hero
Marty Friedman is pretty jazzy.
Randy Rhoads signature RR5 with Dimebag's signature SH-13 and SH-1 combination. I like this guy.
this guy kicks ass at explaining what hes doing, everyone else just shouts a scale then leaves it .
Damn dude. His picking is fucking amazing.
beautiful jackson!
Is that a hollow-body Rhoads?! O.O
has anyone noticed that he is wearing a red top when its a wide shot with his head and black top when its a close up on him playing....?
@huaysan90 not all asians are bad ass guitarists. there is a guy called herman li...
Hi im John Li, and i bet you cant remember this
Wooooooooooooow...He is so good that actually his shirt changes colour!!!
thought that F hold was real for a minute then, was about to freak out with him doing that to such a lovely rhoads
What great picking technique!!!!
Betcha just won your bet.
nice jakcosn, i just think the hole in it should be cooler looking. it should look jagged and sharp like the body and pickguard
Wow, never heard of this guy before but hes really fast and clean!
That's what i call a GOOD Betcha can't play this.
Omg, that finger movement picking looks impossible to me! how the heck do you make that?!
Erm holy crap. That is actually the most mental BYCPT I've seen!
he's like Herman Li except he can play guitar
@BvdLNL and theres a seymour duncan dimebucker in the bridge.
he added a delay effect while playing it to make it sound faster
@steliozzfil I don't see what that has to do with anything but that list is 3 years old by this point.
Could somebody tell me what gauge strings he's using?
crazy stuff
i liked it a lot more when played slowly, but still kicks ass
awesome guitar
@zaktan415 and there was a dean dime, but only very short! the only thing left was one pickup.
Love it. But, does it remind anyone else of Eugene's Trickbag?
Lol The sheer amount of butthurt rock players on these videos is fucking priceless. I can feel the hurt in my butt from here.
@rspelzk I Want that guitar is it a custom or a guitar you can buy? Thats My Dream Guitar x1000
Damn! I knew it! Would have been too awesome to be real.
@d3thMAIDENd3th How is this guitar called then?
@uherl
Cool, I hope you get everybody up and dancing with it ... It's just awesome
JOHN LI ,I LOVE YOU
WOODY
@Downfall93 they are not related - Herman's from Hong Kong and is British! Li is one of the most common surname in China, one would think :P
DON'T ASK WHY there just fucking are people who want to do what they want to do ok and you can't change that!

Robotic jazz man! =D SHREDDIN! ^_^ haha
@nathanguitarguru
The first quarter of it or so was pretty good, then it just got too long...
@thedamondude 64th notes are still really fast at 90bpm :P
why have I not heard of his band before?
is he by any chance related to herman li ?????
the licks sounds awesome slow
Holy Shit, he's right - Bet I can't either!
@FinalFantasyCenter i know right?
fucking awesome guitar
"Hi this is John Li from Order of Ennead and im asian"
nough said...
finally a decent Betcha cant play this since Chris Broderick
@Rellik428 its also 32 notes at 180 and 16ths at 360... crazy
Why did herman Li change his first name?
@BvdLNL You beat me to the punch!! Right on
6:16 that's what she said
Man, you were right, I cant play that! Who knew...
@conterooski did you mean herman li
@killboxxy in that case, your doing it wrong. im not talking about chords either...you can play lead guitar as fast or as slow as you want...personally i prefer people who play reasonably fast but atleast put some feeling into it..i couldnt care less how fast it is. fast things bore me
woah. everyone check his picking hand. it's like lightning.
holy shite. Nice!
@xxHolyxxWolfsbanexx Yeah, you're right, it's a Rhoads. My fault :x Not sure why you'd want an f-hole painted on though.
Hi this is John Li from order of ennead and i betcha cant afford this guitar
@thedamondude Well sped is one thing, a good ear for music is a whole other thing
He's too good for the band he's in.
HOLY FUCK!!! HIS SHIRT CHANGES!!!!
Why would you take a Jackson King V and make it semi-hollow? I call shenanigans.
mixture of john petrucci and herman li ?
Herman changed his name and got a little jazzy I see...
@conterooski Death Metal and Jazz apparently prevent that.
i officially quit playing guitar after this
This is John Li, I bet you can't change the color of your shirt as fast as I can
sick.
Betcha I can't!!!
Randy Rhoads + Paul Gilbert guitar?
sounds really jazzy
But the question is: Will it blend?
@Nofatchix1234
I heard that he had the bones replaced with metal robotic bones
so hes a Randy Rhoads/Paul Gilbert Fan?
hi im john li betcha cant remember this
