Guthrie is one of the 0.01% Guitarists that achieved the Wizard Level. Guthrie the White i just love him such a humble guy just amazing

I love how Bryan and Guthrie are very funny people in completely different ways. They're like a joke: an American, a Brit (and a German) walk into a bar...

... and lay down some of the tastiest fusion you've ever heard! I've been fortunate to have seen them two times prior and a third time coming up next Tuesday. I also spent a fair amount of time hanging out with Guthrie during Petrucci's JPGU2.0 event back in 2018 and I'll never forget it. He's the nicest dude you could ever meet, extremely humble about his own success, and will gladly spend time with his fans given the opportunity. He and I were hanging out with a couple other people until 4 AM one of the nights there, trying to figure out how to get more beer delivered 😂

Guthrie venturing into new sounds. The future is bliss.

He speaks like a Shakespearian stage actor, His music always incorporates humorous musical quotes from just about anything. He is an amusing musician

I love that Guthrie literally turned into a wizard

I’m not the biggest fan of Guthrie because I’m a blues and classic rock guy… but I truly believe IMO is he is the greatest living guitarist and maybe even the GOAT because of his technical ability and versatility to play any style and do it at the highest level. Humble living legend with such a likeable personality

@philgallagher1

Agreed (although I am a HUGE fan!). The thing nobody really comments about is that 80% of what he plays live is IMPROVISED. They have a start that is planned, and an end goal, but the bit in the middle is almost always made up on the spot. In my opinion he is clearly the best there has ever been. I say that because he can play EVERYTHING the greats played (Hendrix, Page, Clapton, Beck, Gilmour etc. etc.) as well as, if not better than, they did, and on top of that he also has his own style that is so far ahead of today's guitarists. Now that he's discovered "Digital" music, I'm quite scared to see where he goes next!

I’m not even a bassist but loved Bryan’s interview here…comes across as really nice guy. Interesting that even the pros sometimes cling to old classics like the Boss Chorus.

Discovered The Aristocrats yesterday and really enjoy listening to them. They are like a breath of fresh air, I usually just listen to European accordion music. Listening to rock bands and fusion bands just wears me out after a few minutes, but The Aristocrats have dynamics, quiet moments, and intricate rowdy moments. They are just fun to listen to.

Great video !!!!!!!!!!

Both are so masterful. I usually refrain from gushing in the comments, but damn.

Guthrie's enthusiasm and just sheer joy at playing and showing his gear is just infectious great guitar player but more importantly great guy🤘🎸Love him🤘🎸

Great interview

What a Joy. Thank you

Both these guys are so cool Rly down to earth and just real and totally immersed. Words probably don't cut it.. great stuff

Bryan + Damage Inc. = Awesome

This is such an incredible bass rig man!!!!!!!

[stack of doom] YOU SHALL NOT PASS!

The Aristocrats deserve SO much more attention!!! tyvvvm

Haha gotta be one of the funniest rig rundowns. Loved the Bumblefoot bit. Haha

I’ve always Aspired to do this - I was music director for an amateur stage musical at an anime convention, of all places - and so I made sure every single instrument had a consistent DI feed, with a small speaker onstage for stage sound. That saved us so much time & headache, on what was already a very technically complex production for a bunch of Mostly Cosplayers, and the sound guy was v pleased. Ya got some musicians lookin out for y’all - being able to tell them “I only need One DI into the soundboard for my signal” is one of my fav things about gig setup now

what a cool, clever and most talented guy guthrie is. you can't help but watch with a big old smile.

It's really cool to come to this video after seeing them for this tour wondering how he achieved so many different tones throughout the set, plus the little easter eggs he sprinkles in here regarding their setlist.

Guitar tones coming out of this man's hands and his new guitar screams n whispers into my psyche.

Those patches are awesome

Bryan is such a character! :) Nice job as usual PG! Thanks! More bass players! :)- Brent,VT

Master 🙌🙌🙌

If it works for you, it works for you. Efficiency and effectiveness for your music is all that matters. Good luck and to a prosperous new year

Stunning !

Two of my favorite musicians in the world!

Saw their show in Montreal on Aug 13. Amazing! Go see them.

Guthrie is an amazing guitarist I wished I'd had him as a instructor when I was learning guitar in school excellent rundown thanks.

Aww man i was expecting a loop like he always does in these types of videos lol. Cracked me up when he mentions the comments section, he definitely looks into the comments section of videos related to him lmao.

Such delightful folks, and incredible players. Guthrie is still the gold standard to which I hold all instrumental players.

It's hard to even imagine a better guitar player than Guthrie. Just an absolute master of the instrument ...and a genuinely nice person.

Man what a legends these two

He's one of the rare cases where a modeling rig actually makes more sense. Guthrie can just vibe in any style so fluidly that a rig that can do this much without a fridge full of racks probably makes touring better in every way for him. Most people don't need a fractal and could benefit from committing to the sound of one amp, Guthrie Govan is not most people. A lesser guitarist can get lost with endless possibilities...for Guthrie it's like Goku taking off his weighted clothes 🤣

Top shelf musicians. Couple of really cool guys too!

I went to a workshop with Guthrie. He told a story about working with Hans Zimmer. Guthrie got the music (sheets and recordings), but there was no guitar in it. He called Hans: "what should I play? There is no guitar?". Zimmer responded something like "Well, you will find something". Guthrie was able to find something and add it to the music ... Amazing guitar player (and BIIIIIG Zappa fan :-) )

If a stolen instrument from a famous brilliant musician came in to my hands i would have given it back to him/her for free. Not to every musician, but to Brian Belller in a heart beat. And whit that i would have made the biggest contribution to modern good music witch has become so rare and needs all the support it can get.

32:32 "Space: The final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise..." 🖖

In 1991 when I first met Guthrie at Chelmsford Boys Club he was already an astoundingly brilliant improviser with a compelling musical mind

Brian's such a warm guy as well as a fab bass player!!

y'all are going crazy with the rundowns lately
