  • Andy Timmons at the Thoroughbred Music Guitar Expo in Clearwater, Fla. 1993 (?). This was the opening song to Andy's demo and it blew everyone away. I knew of Danger Danger but did not know of Andy's virtuosity. I became an instant fan after his perfomace. Purchase Andy's "ear X-tacy" CD to get the studio version.

    Met the guy about a year ago at Tree's in Dallas. Brought his wife and son to the show after melting our faces off. Absolutely, note for note, perfect, and humble to boot. Absolutely amazing human being.

      Did you hear the studio recording of this on the album That Was Then This Is Now?? It's DISGUSTING. The speed...the liquid tone of the Mesa Boogie, the precision of the Ibanez, the lighting in his hands.

    He was only in his 20s here, He made a right choice by going solo. Because he is FAR TOO GOOD for some glam band that didn't even have a hit. For those of you who never checked out Andy's solo collection are missing out. He is so versitile, He can shred like Satriani, chicken pick like Vince Gill, and play bluesy jazzy stuff like Larry Carlton. A world class player he is.

      Nah. People who play, and pretty much anyone who’s seen him, know he’s a true virtuoso.
      My only wish is that more people would know his music. G3 is a great vehicle, but Andy deserves to be selling out stadiums. There should be 10,000 people hanging on his every sweep and pinch harmonic.

      The biggest difference is that Andy is better live than on record. Satch is great, but he does not have NEARLY the same precision and natural attack on each note. And he often forgets his own Melodie’s. Andy is the most “intentional” player I’ve found, and I have been on UA-cam almost every day since 2006.

      @DemosthenisMountrakis I am not arguing with you either. Buckethead is phenomenal technically but not very melodic and after about 5 minutes of watching him I'm done. Andy makes his guitar tell stories and can do thing with his guitar that very few people can do. I was watching a video one time with Steve Vai talking about Andy Timmons and how he is able to use his fingers on chords to pull strings sharp in the middle of the chord to make sure all the notes are in tune with each other. This is also phenomenal technique. The guy also has some of the best tone I've ever heard. Buckethead is badass too. Really comes down to personal preference.
