And a great singer.

As much as I still am a huge fan after all these years, I kinda miss the tone and musical style of this Richie Kotzen.

This has got to be the most beautiful Strat I've ever seen!

Ritchie was really underrated early in his career in the 80's. glad to see people discovering his work

Bobby Walker saw him twice.. once in 2017 and back in March... Incredible Live... Could’ve actually recorded both shows for a live album. 💯🎸☮️

Simply amazing. An awesome collection of super solid advanced rock guitar licks. Watching this video reminded me of why I started playing guitar, very inspiring.

You amazing but verry amazing Ingway Malsten.

damn the shrapnel roadrunner days of his cryptic script rivals even Vai back then in speed n tapping

I keep telling my friend, hey dude, you're halfway there already. And then I see something like this and realize that neither one of us are even near half way there yet. In fact, I'm going to go ahead and sell my guitar and maybe become a Chimney Sweeper at this point.

Super!!

Damn, he is sooo good 👍🔥

jest ~ wow.

I love Richie Kotzen. He's plays almost as good as me, he sings almost as good as me, and he looks... You guessed it!

Ex- C and E shows a Lot How he is playing today (2023). With more tríads, enclosures and jazzy stuff.Sure he keeps his pentatonics with bars and amazing hammers ons and pull offs since forever.

Très bonne leçon de guitare

este tipo esta completamente lllloooccccoooo

GOOD FREAKING LORD

Check him out with Adrian Smith of Iron Maiden in Smith/Kotzen.

Damn good player

Brandon Ellis of BDM reminds me a bit of Richie. Prolly their clean shred and legato technique.

no wonder he n greg howe can compose complex stuff he should collab with paul gilbert n joe satriani an instrumental album add in mathias n some new generation shredder it be a blast

Did anyone notice the G string breaking in 2:32? Best guitarrist ever, love Richie chops...

It's D and not breaking, just vibrating so fast, it can't be seen at such low resolution. If you check a few seconds later first 5 frets of the D string is there.

These pickups were custom made by Dimarzio for the Fender Richie Kotzen strat.

Gotta go play my guitar now….

Some tabs?

@lucasbittar

Pretty much! The trick is that he combines 2 shapes so it becomes a 3 notes-per-string pentatonic. In my opinion his signature sound is that fourths lick. He throws that in every now and then. Fantastic guitar player and killer singer. Richie is the whole package :)

Don't be so hard on yourself & don't underestimate yourself. Apart from that; there are dozens of 6-7 year olds on youtube - kids with snot at their noses - who play better than Richie Kotzen... so the thing is: There is no sense in competing with anyone or comparing yourself with others. There always will be someone better - even better than those we accept to be the best nowadays. You should just sit down and have fun. Bob Dylan uses only standart chords by the way... Enjoy your guitar and gear my friend.

I agree to not be too hard on yourself. For an intermediate to an advanced player this video is a great way to improve your rock phrasing. Although without a good understanding of arpeggios I can see this video could be a bit fast paced for some.

They are custom made by dimarzio, but you can get similar tones using the hs 2 by wiring only the top part of the pickup (soldering the black and white wires, black being hot)

Pentatonic scales and alot of hammerOns & PullOffs
