So, our friend - and all-round guitar hero - Rob Marcello came to visit us recently at our headquarters in St. Wendel, Germany, and we just couldn't resist letting him shred away on the new #TriAmp Mark 3! Enjoy... kzread.info/dash/bejne/Z56YyqeQlZXWk5M.html #hughesandkettner #intotheblue #robmarcello #dangerdanger

He´s like all the shrapnel hero´s of the 80s perfectly mixed. Amazing

Thank you Danger Danger for finding this guy and introducing him to me. Every time I watch one of his guitar vids Im blown away. This is a new fav.

Rob is a fantastic player... I had never heard of him before, but ran into him at a Columbus, Ohio music store (?!) a couple of different times. The first time he was just sitting jamming by himself, and an employee, each time he walked past, would say "play like Yngwie...play like Vai...," etc., and Rob would perfectly emulate each one! Got to have a conversation with him tne second time... a really nice, humble virtuoso of a dude.

Rob Marcello is one of a kind, i like the way he blends the fusion side of the track with neo classical metal, a monster player with spectacular tecnique and great writing. I wish we can heard more of Rob in a near future, a solo album maybe? He is definitely one of my favorite players

And then i was sitting in my room and "behold"! Rob Marcello on Guitar.. And i was blown away!!

Great playing,with a lot of colors,i love that,really remind me of Greg Howe

so many changes in mood into this one single track Sherd with Melody !

this song is out of this world

One of the greatest of all time! Great songs, amazing technics, feeling and he is a great product specialist as well!

Can't get enough of this song! Master Rob please make more fusion-shred songs like this and release an entire album! And the tone is super tasty like a dream, someday I'll own an H&K!

such a masterpiece.

Jacob El-Em if anyone who plays guitar actually thinks that way when they listen to another person play then they don't have the right idea. We're not playing a sport here folks. Everyone has their own personality and character and musical inspiration that they need to put into their own playing. I'm in my 50s now and I've been playing guitar since I was 9 years old. I've seen literally hundreds if not thousands of exceptional guitar players and I've never felt intimidated by them in the least. Only inspiration and respect. That has helped me to become the good player that I am.

+Millo1868 Nope, we had a Tascam recorder with a stereo in. Backing track on one channel, Rob's guitar track on the other - straight from the built-in Red Box DI to the recorder. The TriAmp is a very loud amp, so we had to use a cab in the next room instead. The 4x12 in the room here was not the one we used, because it was simply too loud! On Rob's exact settings, we'll ask around and see if we can get hold of them :)
