Wow! I must thank Rick Beato for introducing me to Nathaniel's music. Such a wonderful player! I long to here Nathaniel's take on my favorite Elliott Smith song from his posthumously released album From A Basement On A Hill titled Strung Out Again.
I don’t mean to be rude. but you guys in the comments need to just pick up some jazz guitar records. he’s not doing anything any of the legends haven’t done on record. the youtube guitar scene is not the end all be all of guitar players. in fact, most of the best players aren’t online. just the younger generation
That's always silly though. People who like actual songs and music don't consider jazz much, and rightfully so. Jazz is generally ugly "music", kind of the equivalent of paint being splattered all over the page and it still being called brilliant art.
@@Musso8771 Haha, I fully agree! Jazz or Fusion can be great but sadly that's so extremely rare, mostly it's somewhat 'unmusical', in lack of a better description. Often it's just like vomiting the notes down a flight of stairs... or what you said ; )
Because to be a rockstar u need to write ur own music - that's the difference - neither Paul Mccartney or George Harrison could play like him.... but they could create music
@@merstrand1 the first like 5 Beatles albums are 80% or more covers. I love the Beatles too but 1960s bands often started with albums of mostly known songs
@@merstrand1 that statement has a lot of truth to it. but I will say there are professional songwriters that could partner with this man and I can't imagine how great the potential would be!
if you haven't ever seen this guy on instagram check him out....he's literally prob one of the best to ever do it....no shit. watch his gimme shelter rendition in the playlist over on the right there.....crazy good!
There are some good guitarplayers here on YT but Nathaniël got something special. Everything he plays is like a little gem, tastefull arrangements, musicaly 100% , nothing rushed or shredded, all with good clear tone and overall controll. Thanks for your gift!!
You can't even say he's a jerk... Because he's a lovely bloke. The Rick Beato interview is absolutely brilliant and testimony to the fact that he is not only obscenely gifted but very humble. 🙏❤
'Riders on the Storm' has been my favourite Doors song but this particular rendition has given me more admiration for demonstrating the sheer musicality within the song .
Everything Nathaniel plays is in the pocket and understatedly other worldly. I've heard few musicians with these chops AND so much style and taste. Watch his video where he plays Kashmir on a vintage Gibson acoustic with a B-bender installed. Crazy good.
Thinking and playing out of the box, every time. This guy has some serious brain hemisphere splitting talent that flies above the clouds. A God given talent with a lot of practise to boot. Mesmerising...
Holy SH*% Nathan, that was mind blowing. If I didn't just watch this with my own eyes, I'd have bet large cash this was 2 to 3 people playing this awesome version of an all time classic. Thanks for sharing CME. Is it wrong to say I get lumber when I look at the walls in your charming little music shop???? LOL Cheers Team CME #rockon
@@dansands6363 absolutely agree. Good PAFs turn any nice LP/SG made from great mahogany into a Tele-like axe and fill them with chime, sparkle, clarity to make ‘em ring like a bell does.
I can honestly say that you do my favorite instrumental arrangements of my two favorite bands...Led Zeppelin and The Beatles. This was fantastic Nathaniel!
Open E , I think I played it last year 😅I forget. But some type of alternate tuning is the best choice for me to play slide . Open G , dadgad, those workout too. Thank you for the music and inspiration 🎉
As always with Nathaniel's performances, your jaw hits the floor and you CANNOT lift it to close your mouth. Genius isn't a big enough word to describe this Man's other-worldly talent. Wow.
I was at CMI a couple weeks ago, annual pilgrimage from KC, and was blue to have missed being able to introduce myself to Nathaniel. He blew my mind with the B-bender Gibson acoustic Beatles thing a couple years back (with Rhrett Schull). Humble mastery is the best.
This is absolutely sick. I've been looking at the lemon burst Epiphone the last couple weeks. Think I have to get one now cuz that distortion tone is awesome. The whole video is overall is awesome too
Mainstream masses just don't appreciate this sort of musicial brilliance and how hard it is to 1. Write it, and 2. Perform it like this. It's real people, not A.I and not sampled by a DJ
SUBSCRIBE & TURN ON NOTIFICATIONS TO NEVER MISS NATHANIEL!

Over fifty years of playing I had yet to hear a guitar player that made me feel the way this man does. We are all blessed to have him

@@petermoss208 Listening to a record is not the same as watching someone play
@@petermoss208listen to his acoustic version of Kashmir on the Les Paul 64. He's in a class by himself
Probably my current favorite “how are they not a massive rock star” guitar player.
Because to be a rockstar u need to write ur own music - that's the difference - neither Paul Mccartney or George Harrison could play like him.... but they could create music
Easily one of the best guitarists out there

Same
Now I want this guitar, this amp and this guy so he can play it for me over and over
You forgot the looper
and the microphone
GAS ....guy acquisition syndrome
if you haven't ever seen this guy on instagram check him out....he's literally prob one of the best to ever do it....no shit. watch his gimme shelter rendition in the playlist over on the right there.....crazy good!
@@johnnycriscoa.k.atamesjayl5910 thanks for this info, I just followed him and I'm looking for that gimme a shelter
The way this man's mind works when it comes to arrangements is inexplicable, the creativity is off the charts!!

imagine going to sleep at night knowing you can play a guitar like this.
I couldn't sleep, I'd play 24/7 until I collapsed.
He practice when we sleeps
@@jamujesperandersen8699 LOL, that's awesome
:D How could he even live normal life, right?
Especially with access to everything there@@TheRange7
Killer demo. This guy never disappoints
Thank you!
It’s like he is playing to the amp. Lol. It’s awesome
You can't even say he's a jerk... Because he's a lovely bloke. The Rick Beato interview is absolutely brilliant and testimony to the fact that he is not only obscenely gifted but very humble. 🙏❤
this guy has exactly what excites me in a guitarist, unlimited amazing feeling in every note. what a legend.
To think we started to learn guitar at the same time in high school.. always awesome Nathanial mate. love it.
We did!! Hope you’re well mate. Hopefully be back home soon
'Riders on the Storm' has been my favourite Doors song but this particular rendition has given me more admiration for demonstrating the sheer musicality within the song .
This guy is the gift that keeps on giving.
That was phruckin' awesome. Encore Nathaniel!
🤘🤘
Beautiful translucent sound. Great feel
Nathaniel is so at one with his guitar, truly inspirational playing.
That was beautiful….love the space he leaves between his phrases
Everything Nathaniel plays is in the pocket and understatedly other worldly. I've heard few musicians with these chops AND so much style and taste. Watch his video where he plays Kashmir on a vintage Gibson acoustic with a B-bender installed. Crazy good.
How refreshing is THAT! A really, really, really good solo without a mess of incomprehensible shredding. Yes!!
Utube: Please forward this comment to Joe Bonamassa....
Musical equivalent of someone saying “Hdhsowkrnfbxjwoqlworjfnfnwmqnfjpqnr” and then everybody going “omg dude you’re so good with words!!!”.
@@gt-37guy6 who’s dat?
like Wes Montgomery
“The best notes in a guitar solo are the ones that are not played”.... B.B. King
Just beautiful! I listened to the Doors when I was in high school! My fav band! This man brought back memories.
Thinking and playing out of the box, every time. This guy has some serious brain hemisphere splitting talent that flies above the clouds. A God given talent with a lot of practise to boot. Mesmerising...
That descending thirds run is amazing ....been trying to play this for months
How’s it going now? You get it all down under your fingers?

Thanks so much!!
This is truly incredible.
I gave a thumbs up 30 seconds into it...and listened to the rest, unable to give it a second thumbs up.
Great touch, tone and lovely chord voicings too!
My favorite Doors song. Great rendition!
Great Work Thanks ❤🎉
Nathaniel is clearly the best guitar player in the world. Always so enjoyable watching him play, perfection every time...
This is just virtuosic magical playing. This guy is up there with the guitar greats
This has got to best the best way to advertise your products i've ever seen. So damn amazing
Thanks You!!!
SGs sound great clean...an often overlooked strenght
Agreed! Especially in the middle position. That’s one of my favorite tones.
Even Les Pauls too. If you get a good one that isn’t too woody sounding and has lower output PAF style pickups you’re in business.
@@dansands6363 absolutely agree. Good PAFs turn any nice LP/SG made from great mahogany into a Tele-like axe and fill them with chime, sparkle, clarity to make ‘em ring like a bell does.
Thom York agrees
This the right way to properly play guitar.So much to learn from this guy.Thank you for sharing your talent with the world.
Wow, thank you!
Man sets the mood! Great guitar play.
A most excellent and sweet rendition of this Doors classic. Well done on your picking and tone.
I can honestly say that you do my favorite instrumental arrangements of my two favorite bands...Led Zeppelin and The Beatles. This was fantastic Nathaniel!
It's storming like crazy right now. Perfect
Awesome rendition of an awesome song. Great playing
Fantastic, this was the opening song on the legendary NFS underground 2
Wow!!!Spot on and then some...CME...is where i got my first stratocaster...best place...Incredible jamin...
he makes it seem super easy, but that is pure talent! loved it!
That dude is legit.
I'm pretty sure if I went into Chicago Music Exchange, I would never leave.
I was just thinking if I went there, I'm pretty sure I would spend ten thousand or more on guitars I really don't need, but would love to have.
I can see Robbie smiling now. Very nice job!
Thank you!
He’s… still alive…
@@JUNO-69That is hilarious 😂
@@JUNO-69
Yeah, otherwise he couldn't smile now, could he? ; )
Now this man has some real class, great playing there.
Just so effortlessly precise and clean. Compelling listening
It just gets better the more one listens
Open E , I think I played it last year 😅I forget. But some type of alternate tuning is the best choice for me to play slide . Open G , dadgad, those workout too.
Thank you for the music and inspiration 🎉
That was amazing ❤

Absolutely ripping it!! Amazing job
Such a humble video title. My mind is so blown I could not listen to the end.
that is one good looking SG
That was very, very cool!!
Beautifully brother 🤘🎸 from new Zealand 🎸🤘
Amazing. Great originality and a fantastic tribute. I hope Robbie Krieger and John Densmore get to see this.
Incredible. Well done.
You've just blew my doors 🚪 off.
Nice performance.
Heavy. Beautiful playing. Shew...
Sounds better than a lot of custom shop fenders and boutique guitars
Nice work mate
👍🇦🇺

Mind Blowing indeed !!!!!
