Guitarists I'd like to see if you decide to do a part 2: -Mark Knopfler -Jimmy Page -Jimi Hendrix -Frank Zappa -Eric Clapton -James Hetfield -Kirk Hammet -Dave Mustaine -Randy Rhoads
The Kerry King one isn't even an exaggeration. I remember reading interviews with him in Guitar magazines years ago before I had any familiarity with Slayer, and he would be talking a big game about how he invents his own scales and crap like that. In retrospect, that's absolutely hilarious.
Just discovered this channel. Its one of the only guitar channels I have subbed to. Perfect example of to have fun and not take everything so seriously. Brilliant
Top class tribute to Liz! We all know she was a closet rock-n-roll lover and she'll have loved this tribute the most of all that are being sent her way! 👏
I don't usually hate guitar players. I simply ignore them if it's not my thing. However, I would smash a guitar on Tom Morello's head... his own guitar if possible... 😆
Oh my God dude. I've not laughed so hard in so long. And at the end I was like one more David Gilmore please and you did! This is just f****** hilarious. I'm 61, professional musician and this is just some great s*** you are putting out. Absolutely hilarious and spot on.
@@Killerkarotte1why not? He's probably better than you will ever be. I'm not saying he's the best or that polyphia is the best band ever.. hell even I dislike some of their songs , but you have to agree that Henson is damn good at guitar.
Very spot on mate! haha, love them😄 You mad my day!🧡...the Angus Young 1 riff seizure, 😂the Zakk pinch harmonic abuse, Tim Hensons random note incoherent fingerings, Kerry Kings "trash" riffs😁. but what really cracks me up is the Dave GILMORE's 1 note noob crash landing bend😆 😂 watch it 100%. glad I'm a shredder, who care's about feelings and emotion???, I'll choose speed all day any day!.....(incidentally Vai's volume swells, JP's erratic speed runs, Jason Beckers sweep-overload and Yngwie's wailling bend and neo classic runs...still sounds GOOD even to people who Hate Them.) more is more!🤘, You rock Bradley. Cheers!💯
I held it together till the David Gilmour part. Spent the rest of the video laughing hysterically. Your videos are the best man. Keep them coming! Also legend has it Gilmour is still holding that note.
These were spot on to be fair, you really caught the idiosyncrasies no one really talks about, like Mayo’s 3 notes per 10 second things, the SRV blues shredding and Yngwie sliding way on up there to give his hands a rest.
@@KyleHope-pt2ku Yeah... Dime had some guitars with that flag on it. But he said a few times that he didn't see it as a symbol of hatred and supremacy, but more like a symbol of southern heritage and rebellion against society. In the 90's, some artists and Tv Shows used it that way too. Today, the flag is a sign of rebellion for absolutely nobody, and it's just another reminder of the south's tragic past and modern-day supremacy.
@@bingobongo1615 you gotta give him a listen, I'll admit some of his songs go on for way too long. Nottingham lace and Soothsayer drag on towards the end, but I love his guitar skills. His solos are amazing.
the funniest part about the marty friedman bit is that he could probably actually play that and then follow it up with a lick that puts the previous part into context and makes it sound perfect
I believe this to be the most accurate portrayal/cover of ever single one of these 20 guitarists!!! The Dave Gilmour piece is my favourite as it proves that a solitary note can express such intense feelings of Weltschmerz, jubilance and anguish all at once!
@@ReizokoRyu It means "world weariness' - a feeling of being sad about the state of the world. It's a German word that isn't used very often in English.
Sound good if you are ok with the fact that the harmonies were out of tune on purpose to make it sound dumb. In my ear it sounded awful which was probably what he was going for 😂
I like how it started out with Tom Morello, a guitarist I almost can't stand to hear anymore, and it is exactly how I explain his guitar playing to be perfectly lol.
didnt know who this morello cat was had to look it up, yea hate all the "bands" he played for. if thats what he sounds like thats the reason i hate his music
As a guitarist, you win. Everything accurate and the face in the EVH turn around. “Yeah, I got skills, what you going to do about it?” Was a chefs kiss. And yes, I really did quote the skills guy. Lol
Very nice video! You must've had a ton of fun with making it! I love the Petrucci and Brian May interpretation, kinda hits the spot for me lol. But David Gilmour is and always be the top spot with that bend note(s) for me. Great job, keep it up!
That Kerry King one was so accurate, I'd love to see Daron Malakian in a Part 2. He's one of my favourite guitarists, but there can be a lot of fun to be had with his playing style (maybe a small poke at the time his guitar shorted out or his super sporadic style of the first SOAD album)
The Gilmour gag is hilarious. It's also funny the fact that his one single note is better than any thousand notes in a second that the others could make
without getting in to whether or not you "should" like Polyphia. If that is what Tim Henson sounds like to you, you have got to be tone-deaf xD the Aesthetic is unique and that will be polarizing, but his technical skill and musical understanding is absolutely top top top tier.
@@nordfald3740 yea it wasn’t even close to his tone since he’s usually pretty clean. I mean I thought it was hysterical but if someone actually thinks that’s what he sounds like I’d think they’re literally tone deaf
I’m with you on that boat man. The fancy tapping shit just isn’t that cool to me. Guitarists nowadays need to play some damn power chords and focus on writing good songs.
You just don’t like it because it’s not what you grew up listening to and/or playing, has no bearing on whether it’s objectively good sounding or not. There’s a reason this new style hasn’t just died out, it’s because there are people for whom it actually sounds good and neat. And it happens to be that most of them are younger. Familiarity bias isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but if you don’t acknowledge it’s there you will end up with clouded judgments.
@@hamabrewer you're right I didn't grow up with it. It's OK if I find it generic and not very interesting. Lots of people like and that's cool. Not everyone needs to like everything new.
@@hamabrewer As i said, i HATE polyphia, never said they werent talented. I play for over 23 years and will never in a 100 years be as good as Tim, but that shit doesnt sound good to ME, feel free to like whatever you want. There´s many things i didnt grew up listening to and love it..It´s just a matter of taste, some like and others dont´ simple as it can be ;)
If David Gilmour isn’t STILL playing that note in part two… I‘ll be disappointed
he is
Comfortably numb solo still sounds amazing
@@BradleyHallGuitarExactly, Why stop then? He's been holding that note his entire career already.
@@sixsledges5474 no one said it doesn’t
🤣🤣🤣 i'm still laughing for David Gilmour 🤟
Guitarists I'd like to see if you decide to do a part 2:
-Mark Knopfler
-Jimmy Page
-Jimi Hendrix
-Frank Zappa
-Eric Clapton
-James Hetfield
-Kirk Hammet
-Dave Mustaine
-Randy Rhoads
Slash
He needs to do Slash as well.
What about that one guy that confirms as a table and says YEAH all the time and his father left and his mother died?
also needs satriani
@@tommihommi1 yup
The zakk wylde an kerry king ones were just how they sound normally. Badass lol.
Was about to say this...
i like slayer, but they'd be a lot better without kerry's "solos" lol
i love zakk but for sure when his part came It was pretty accurate
Yeah that was kerrys raining blood secret
@@Wyatt42069 bro what no way! There not like amazing but it is a signature sound for slayer.
Legend has it that David Gilmore is still holding that bend to this very day.
Legend has it that David Gilmour is still holding that note to this very day
long, long ago I asked my mom "why would anyone wanna go to a 3 hour Pink Floyd show just to hear maybe 3 songs?"
I'll never forget the death stare.
@@michaelbecker5995 Their show's are epic! They could play one song for all I care and it would still be epic.... drug's also help the experience lol
That’s why he isn’t on tour 😂😂😂
That John Petrucci impression is SPOT ON. And I love John Petrucci music.
Target Petruccinated
That impression somehow reminds me of peruvian skies solo
Also a reference to “He plays with no soul.”
That's exactly how Kerry King sounds
yeah what I thought the moment it came up xD
And that's exactly how he runs around....I think, I don't know I've never been to a slayer show
FUCKING SLAYERRRRRRR
As a slayer fan, that’s true
@@thomasshredster4627 I've seen them live three times and he doesn't run around at all.
As a massive David Gilmour fan, that running gag was absolutely hilarious lol
Petition for a part 2 with Dave Mustaine, James Hetfield, Mick Thompson and Euronymous in it
+Alexi Laiho
satch
+Tosin Abasi ^^
+Kirk hammet
+Slash, Daron Malakian, Prince, David Gilmour (again)
The Kerry King one isn't even an exaggeration. I remember reading interviews with him in Guitar magazines years ago before I had any familiarity with Slayer, and he would be talking a big game about how he invents his own scales and crap like that. In retrospect, that's absolutely hilarious.
"Yeah this is Chex Mixolydian mode -- Root note, half step, half step, half step, half step, half step, half step, stop to lick cheese dust off ring finger, half step, half step, half step, whole step."
Wait he said he invents his own scales? What a jackass lol
Dave Gilmour was spot on. Yngwie needed more scales.
More harmonic minor specifically.
Bradley's "Yngvie" impression was abominable.
And ninja kicks.
@@lueysixty-six7300 Yngwie is abominable... and I dont mean his personality, I mean his playing is objectively egregious. Worst tone.
Needs more arpeggios from hell =]
It's a month later & Gilmour is still holding that note!...... This was fucking great
The David Gilmour eternal bend never ceases to be hilarious.
It is eternal, after all.
Just discovered this channel. Its one of the only guitar channels I have subbed to. Perfect example of to have fun and not take everything so seriously. Brilliant
Tim Henson one was fucking hilarious. Missing almost every single note. Also, not enough T R E B L E on Brian May
You forgot to play the E.
Tim rarely misses any notes, the concerts that he does is because he is drunk. 🤣
The David Gilmour and Kerry King ones are absolutely _killing_ me lmao.
Who could hate Brian May? He's just so nice..
But he belongs there with the greats.. His solo project with evh was awesome
A true gentleman, I've met him severa times
Fr tho!
@@sock2206 They played for people, then apologised and gave lots of money to the cause
He's got a PHD in astrophysics, he's amazing
Top class tribute to Liz! We all know she was a closet rock-n-roll lover and she'll have loved this tribute the most of all that are being sent her way! 👏
The Tom Morello one was so FRiCKIN TRUE
I don't usually hate guitar players. I simply ignore them if it's not my thing. However, I would smash a guitar on Tom Morello's head... his own guitar if possible... 😆
Sounded like every Morello solo I can think of right now! Lol
Id never heard of him until there was this one prat in the fender hendrix anniversary video who sounded god awful and i looked him up lol
As a massive Tom Morello and RATM fan I agree! Morello is a crappy guitarist and RATM music is total garbage.
1:07 Just proves how hard is to play dimebag stuff, and what a beast he was doing all that drunk live!
Oh my God dude. I've not laughed so hard in so long. And at the end I was like one more David Gilmore please and you did! This is just f****** hilarious. I'm 61, professional musician and this is just some great s*** you are putting out. Absolutely hilarious and spot on.
0:34 - That’s how Zakk sounds to people who love and hate him.
Perfect minus one thing.
Steve Vai has a wind machine blowing his locks at all times.
Normally I'd agree with you but nowadays he looks more like my great aunt Tessa
You're thinking of Herman Li lmao
@@DookyShoes1 I do not know your great aunt Tessa but you are so right
Aunt Tessa hopefully is appropriately ugly. However, Steve looks not just ugly, he also looks old. Really really old.
@@DookyShoes1 let's be real though, he was a visual snack back in the 80s 🥲
The angus young impression is by far the funniest thing I have ever seen in a while 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The Van Halen one actually sounded really good. The Buckethead part was good as well.
Wait you’re telling me i can make a good impression of Buckethead after playing guitar for a month ?
@@andreypolyakov1593 Doesn't matter if you do. If you fuck up, you're wearing a bucket on your head, no one's going to notice who you are.
The David Gilmour and Angus Young combo made me LMAO so hard that people around me are looking me as if I was a psycho 😂😂😂
I'm personally convinced you could splice up any of Kerry King's solos into different Slayer songs and no one would notice you changed anything
I wouldn't
Slayers pretty good, but my god Kerry is awful
@@meltedicecubes7052 Jeff was better.
How have you dared to enter this chat and besmirch the name of the unbesmirchable FK'nSLAYURGH?!?!?
@@peen897 jeff's solos were just like kerry's, apart from the occasional melody, i will stand for this anti kerry king bias
Man you never cease to entertain. Perfect dose of humor and rock'n roll! The Zakk one just killed me with that many incessant pinch harmonics lol
The Tim Henson one is what everyone sounds like when they try to play Polyphia for the first time.
Don't give Henson too much credit...
There are music in this planet other than Polyphia too
This whole video reminds me of Kmac's playing "X" without actually learning it.
@@Killerkarotte1why not?
He's probably better than you will ever be. I'm not saying he's the best or that polyphia is the best band ever.. hell even I dislike some of their songs , but you have to agree that Henson is damn good at guitar.
I died every single time David Gilmour came back on for a second with the same note LOL literally perfect 🤣
I liked how John Petrucci was a combo of David Gilmore and Herman Li. Spot on!
Very spot on mate! haha, love them😄 You mad my day!🧡...the Angus Young 1 riff seizure, 😂the Zakk pinch harmonic abuse, Tim Hensons random note incoherent fingerings, Kerry Kings "trash" riffs😁. but what really cracks me up is the Dave GILMORE's 1 note noob crash landing bend😆 😂 watch it 100%. glad I'm a shredder, who care's about feelings and emotion???, I'll choose speed all day any day!.....(incidentally Vai's volume swells, JP's erratic speed runs, Jason Beckers sweep-overload and Yngwie's wailling bend and neo classic runs...still sounds GOOD even to people who Hate Them.) more is more!🤘, You rock Bradley. Cheers!💯
As someone who's based my style on the Young Brothers. You got Angus' vibrato down perfectly.
hell yeah brother!

i'm honestly crying, they were all so spot on
Part 2 suggestions - Johnny Greenwood, Mark Knopfler, Jimmy Paige, Santana, Prince... more please!
People who hate Brian May also hate kittens, chocolate and peace....
and badgers
Huge fan of Zakk and Dime and you captured them both perfectly. RIP Liz from across the pond
Kerry King was pretty good, too
ok but one question, WHAT WAS THAT GUITAR THAT DIMEBAG DARREL WAS USING IN THE PHOTO OF HIM???
@@KyleHope-pt2ku A Washburn Dime 333 Rebel Flag I think ?
@@J.Diggins you mean the one that the confederates used...?
@@KyleHope-pt2ku Yeah... Dime had some guitars with that flag on it.

Love it, I hope David Gilmour shows more of his talent on part 2
0:55 That's literally one of the licks in Angel Of Death lmao
That first John Mayer note made me spit coffee out all over the screen
I was half expecting Kirk Hammett to just be one note
but with four different wah pedals
Honestly, without all of the wrong chords on the Brian May solo you did, the key sounded amazing and that would be an amazing cover!
Buckethead is probably one of my favourite guitarists.
Definitely my favorite guitarist I never listen to…
@@bingobongo1615 you gotta give him a listen, I'll admit some of his songs go on for way too long. Nottingham lace and Soothsayer drag on towards the end, but I love his guitar skills. His solos are amazing.
I've just started listening to him. He seems to have about 400 albums.
Same here. I've never heard him sound remotely close to this. He rarely even taps..
@@dickieradd Signature thing Mr Bradley should have done for Buckethead is excessive use of a kill switch :--)
This is one of the best videos i have seen in years. Thanks a LOT!
the funniest part about the marty friedman bit is that he could probably actually play that and then follow it up with a lick that puts the previous part into context and makes it sound perfect
Strange you did parodies, but played actual Poliphia song on 0:40
Wait.. Doesn't Tom Morello sound exactly like this ?
Time to hate you because you love him 👺
Please part 2 I need this so bad
Fan of all these artists and you!
Hahaha, rip liz. Zakk Wylde and Kerry King obviously sound EXACTLY like that.
I do love how slayer have some of the greatest riffs of all time but all of their solos are like riding a Ghost train on Ketamine
I believe this to be the most accurate portrayal/cover of ever single one of these 20 guitarists!!! The Dave Gilmour piece is my favourite as it proves that a solitary note can express such intense feelings of Weltschmerz, jubilance and anguish all at once!
Excuse my ignorance but... What is weltschmerz

@@sarahkaroline1550 Ah, wow, that's interesting! Thanks a lot for the explanation!
No problem, I'm happy to explain! @@ReizokoRyu
This is like the upside down version of that Guthrie Govan imitating 20 guitarists video
The fact that Brian May actually sounds good is a testament that he’s the GOAT
you could play absolute garbage with that tone and it would still sound amazing.
Sound good if you are ok with the fact that the harmonies were out of tune on purpose to make it sound dumb.
In my ear it sounded awful which was probably what he was going for 😂
most overrated guitarist ever
@@navneetsinghr4290 wrong
Brian May has his own sound, doesn't mean he's the GOAT. Not by a long shot.
0:22 1:00 2:24 David Gilmour 🤣🤣🤣
0:15, ladies and gentlemen, we present you the Drumhead
this video explains so much with so little context.. I love it
0:07. Marty Friedman tries to imitate Marty Friedman 😂😂😂😂
I very nearly choked on my tea at that last Dave Gilmour.
That solo sounds like a siren playing the British national anthem at 2:06
Edited: Actually, that's a traffic siren sounding solo
This so accurate...
Btw, Gilmour played that note since '73...
I like how it started out with Tom Morello, a guitarist I almost can't stand to hear anymore, and it is exactly how I explain his guitar playing to be perfectly lol.
didnt know who this morello cat was had to look it up, yea hate all the "bands" he played for.
if thats what he sounds like thats the reason i hate his music
Morello was his best when paired with Cornell. Otherwise he's meh.
@@TheUnwantedDong I love his work with Cornell and RATM but by god have I gotten tired of his guitar tone to the max. It's annoying now.

Gilmour.. That one got me the most.
And then you did him AGAIN lol.
Laughed more than appropriate at the final Gilmour
Zakk Wylde and Kerry King were extremely accurate.
And yes, I genuinely love them.
That Kerry King one was so accurate, I'd love to see Daron Malakian in a Part 2. He's one of my favourite guitarists, but there can be a lot of fun to be had with his playing style (maybe a small poke at the time his guitar shorted out or his super sporadic style of the first SOAD album)
Tim Henson one had me DYING. Synyster Gates needs more chromatic scales 😂😂😂
Love you content dude!
Tom Morello kills me every time 😂
I love that you turned your back during the EVH part. Nice reference to his early days.
2:24 😄
The Gilmour gag is hilarious. It's also funny the fact that his one single note is better than any thousand notes in a second that the others could make

Petition for a part 2 with:
Daron Malakian, Carlos Santana, Jack White or Mick Gordon
and of course david gilmour
This Channel gets better with Every video, you are talented and fun to watch.
You can play bad versions of these dudes while I struggle to play a decent version of myself
Tom Morello and Zakk Wylde are both spot on, exactly what I hear when I listen to Rage For The Machine (intentionally mistitled) and Zakk era Ozzy!
