Greg has never been recognized as much as he should be. He is just amazing.

I've been listening to Greg Howe since the 80s and I have always admired his amazing playing. His playing has always gotten better and better through the years. He is one of my top favorite guitarists for sure. I would love to see him play live with Dennis Chambers on drums and Victor Wooten on bass.

Greg Howe is one of the best guitar players on the planet. I have listened to his albums since his first album came out in 1988. His playing blows my mind!

That man can play.

Hi, Greg sometimes uses a hair tie to mute the open strings on his guitar. Give it a try. All the best, Larry DiMarzio

One of my fave guitarists, thats jazz rock fusion cutting the changes so hard to do...i love that gat too...Beast mode🥇🎸🕺🏼

I would love to see Greg Howe and Andy Timmos playing in a concert, these two guys are very complex in their playing guitar, would be awesome to see them live.

you forgot Guthrie !!!!!!

What I absolutely LOVE ist the amazing feel for melodic candy in his playing. His playing has head and shoulders and he is among the most amazing shred players. Pretty close to Satriani IMHO with less Rock but more Fusion appeal.

He is interchanging between noodling and the main theme. Thats how improvisation should be!

I like his quick back and forth slides. I think I'm gonna steal that technique for my own playing..

this is just amazing... by ANY measure. Just gets better and better

Damn! I love his playing so much! Fantastic rhythmic approach in his licks!

Larry, thank you so much for putting up all those awesome clips !!!

Smooth, effortless and beautiful. Great playing!

he's great..like his tone

+jeff holloway Yeah his tone is smooth and articulate. Dimarzio did a great job with that Custom GH pickup in the bridge. I liked his tone on this song but I think it sounds a little flat (low treble) but, maybe that's just personal player preference.

Great interview, thanks for this.

Fantastic as always

i love these videos, and greg's playing sooooo good!

might be a little bit of the way this was filmed but I think the tones he had on Introspection blow this totally out of the water.

this guitar is my fav out of the 7 that own..balanced,tone never ceases to just always make me feel that every pick,strum,hammer on, tap or whatever i do just flows from inside ya..thx greg..great inspiration and truley gifted,talented artist/musician :) greg seems like just one of the coolest,down to earth guy who is like a friend that you enjoy jamming with. i dont think he has ever taken his talent for granted and loves to share his ability with everyone..

Thanks for posting. Love Greg Howe.

No, it's called "Kick It All Over" from his debut self-titled album 1988.

bloody brilliant, incredibly clean.

It was funny how as soon as he started doing the Eruption stuff even his face started looking like EVH.

Love Greg's playing and phrasing.

hey larry great video, and i think the fact that you actually reply to people who ask you questions on your videos shows the real class of dimarzio!

Im not going to stop practicing u till i can play this good..

Greg is one of my all time heros! Been listening since I got hold of the album Howe2. Just want to say what a coooool idea the hair band is!! It works!! Cheers Greg!

Greg´s guitar playing is out of this world. No doubt, one of my favorites...

I absolutely love this. I'm not well versed in music theory, but whatever mode or scale he's playing is great. Just sounds so cheerful.

@edgarrg94 Thanks for the kind words. All the best, Larry DiMarzio

outstanding playing, Howe kicks ass!

amazing player, humble and clever at a time.

I dropped a Super Distortion in my Strat back in 1983 and haven't looked back. It still kicks butt.

incredible sound! Perfectly defined yet fat`n powerful! Amazing

what a fantastic player!

So good!!!

Amazing!

Beautiful.

Amazing ........again !

Awesome, nice to meet you bro.

i love this guy amazing guitarist

Man what a brilliant musician!!!

wow! great job!

Great phrasing, cool lick, groovy riff..... one of pioneer rock/fusion guitarist which made popular of hybrid picking

Great player. Very interesting sounds, musical ideas. Tasty stuff.

Such a skilled player!!

His style reminds me of Ritchie Kotzen...great in both times. Great players! I love those none bend vibratoes!

It's so great that the great Larry DiMarzio has time to answer the questions in the comments. Thank you!

damn! greg is the sickest. loved his playing since '88

Damn that solo got Cookin, im totally inspired and need to go play guitar now:) THANX!

God Bless and keep on rocking,I like to learn everything you know, only advance guitar player could understand you, to me i see it so clear, i never thought it would be that easy, Thank you and i wont let you down.

Great material. Love the Maragold stuff..

I had the pleasure of meeting Greg at a clinic he did at Sam Ash in Las Vegas. And I'll tell you, he's one of the most down to earth and cool guys you will ever meet.

I love his tapping ....

He has a unique style. amazing

@Ibik Hi, I did all the early models, Super Distortion, P Bass, PAF etc. Steve Blucher does most of the pickup design work now but I still over see everything. Now, I designed all the cables, straps, advertising, videos and the DiMarzio website. Steve started working with me over 30 years ago and he is really good. Hope that helps, Larry DiMarzio

Such an awesome, way underrated guitarist.

I have DP 100 super distortion on my LP and I love it very much.

Truly one of the worlds best

the taping at is amazing 3:55 very melodical and smooth

I love this video! ****

Gotta just love his vibrato!

Excellent

28 people with thumbs down are saying "I'm jealous and I wanna play guitar"

Greg please come to England!

beautiful guitar you'va got gREG!

Hi Larry, thanks for building your amazing pickups...I have a mexican strat...i changed the pickups...i have a chopper on the bridge and a HS3 on the neck...The guitar sounds really really good...Thanks man... :-)

He is my favorite....he is the best!!!!

Link this video to showing mastering of groove, timing along with technical prowess. Especially to our basic over-worn sweeping picking 3-notes per string alternate picking generation. Such a joy to watch, I love his jams with Kotzen.

Damn good!

Greg Howe is awesome, and Larry you make great pick-ups!

to those who say "this sound better than govan", or daniele gottardo or the other guys, let me tell you: they love Greg Howe, he was playing amazing stuff decades before the "modern" guitar players...

Lmao! I love Greg.I was lucky to have taken some lessons from Greg in th OC.Incredible feat to play for Michael Jackson by the seat of his pants! Thanks for the post Larry!

damn awesome greg howe. i wish.

Man, I spent the whole night shift with "Kick it All Over" playing in my head... Such a memorable riff and melody! EmotionalShredd... You are so right! I've been wondering if anybody noticed his similarities with EVH... And I notice now how he speaks like Vai.

The video was shot while Greg's guitar was still being prototyped. One of the earlier protos had a standard Breed neck pickup, but the neck pickup in the video is an Air Norton S, which is what Greg actually approved. Sorry for the confusion.

thats a sick song hes playing!

@monochromeEARTH Sorry for the confusion, but there is no single-coil sized Breed. The pickup in the neck position of Greg's guitar is an Air Norton S.
