    I used to watch this video when it just came out, I'm twenty now and I watched it when I was about eight and absolutely infatuated with music and the guitar.
    I cannot describe how much joy and nostalgia this video gives me, Alex will always be a guitar god to me!

    Hey Alex -
    I know it’s 10 years later but in case you occasionally check comments:
    I particularly like your ordering so that keys make great sense and your interesting transitions when key changes come. Great composition!
    The ‘editing,’ that is, where you chose to get into and out of riffs was great, consistently interesting and occasionally surprising. Fun!
    Your use of effects was great and your non-Strat tones were very good. Your pickup switching was flawless. I think many beginning and intermediate guitarists don’t spend enough time practicing the tech side of effect/setting/pickup changes. You certainly do.
    The added bass notes in Satisfaction were very nice; your SRV tone was great; thanks for picking Thunderstruck instead of legatoing it; the switch to slide in Seven Nations Army was slick. A pleasant time is guaranteed for all.

    The fact that he executes this without any noticeable breaks is so impressive to me. Like each riff in itself is not that difficult (except for a few), but the fact that he pulls off this pretty seamless medley with no noticeable errors all in one take, switching to drop D midway through, and having amp modifications and other accessories… I’m watching this trying to calculate how many hours he had to practice to get this routine right, and he deserves a thumbs up at the very least from everyone who clicks.
