We need a netflix show about present day Steve Vai who never got over his humiliating loss and becomes a washed up drunk. He sees a kid being bullied by his gf's bf and decides to step up and become his guitar sensei. He teaches the kid to shred and finally developes a fatherly bond until Ralph Macchio comes up and opens his own guitar dojo. Eventually they are forced to team up when the devil returns and steals all of Steve's students. The show should be called Cobra Vai. Write that shit down. (Stolen from a reddit comment)

The OP did not explain that two guitars were differently TUNED. Clue 1: playing with slide requires a different tuning altogether. Clue 2: Butler's inability to play last parts means his guitar was wrongly tuned for the piece, but he played by the ear and fumbled over his own ignorance. THAT was the catch; Butler was capable ear player, but uneducated, which the boy recognised & took advantage of. None of this is addressed.

We need a netflix show about present day Steve Vai who never got over his humiliating loss and becomes a washed up drunk. He sees a kid being bullied by his gf's bf and decides to step up and become his guitar sensei. He teaches the kid to shred and finally developes a fatherly bond until Ralph Macchio comes up and opens his own guitar dojo. Eventually they are forced to team up when the devil returns and steals all of Steve's students. The show should be called Cobra Vai. Write that shit down. (Stolen from a reddit comment)

The OP did not explain that two guitars were differently TUNED. Clue 1: playing with slide requires a different tuning altogether. Clue 2: Butler's inability to play last parts means his guitar was wrongly tuned for the piece, but he played by the ear and fumbled over his own ignorance. THAT was the catch; Butler was capable ear player, but uneducated, which the boy recognised & took advantage of. None of this is addressed.
There were some parts that were closer than I expected but more which weren't even kind of close. I love the concerned looks everyone gives when he's really bad.
Steve's facial expressions still work. But instead of being concerned about losing, he's concerned about Ralph.

I 've been waitin for someone to do this!
When Macchio dug deep after much frustration, and with a defiant flourish declared, "It's shreddin' time!" That was when the battle really took off!
The clean bit at the end is pure gold
Absolutely perfect! nailed it brotha!
4:31 My reaction when listening to Ralph's solos
TEARS! Beanley... you gave me tears. Oh my Odin that was so freaking hilarious. Thank you so much! 🤘🔥
🤣😂This was so hilarious. Vai's face when he started the duel and he didn't hear anything back.
That final bend was fine art.
Well done! Truely a masterpiece that had me on the floor laughing!
It always made me laugh when Ralph started doing the Hammer on, and the smile fades from the Devil's face, like it's something actually "Great" as if after hearing what Steve Vai did, a simple repeated hammer on/pull off, is suddenly something to 'worry about'

I always just took that as him recognizing what Ralph is about to play, being that the devil probably made a deal with paganini in the movie’s universe.

@@bushman6964 Yup, that's a Paganini piece. I don't think it's a coincidence, considering the context.

Funny thing to me is that those hammer ons are actually not that easy to play. If you are not good you end up sounding like this video.

@@denofearthundertheeverlast5138 Yea, but it's the look on their faces...they've actually heard some really awesome guitar playing so far, but then it gets quiet and everybody looks worried when Ralph starts doing a hammer-on that any beginner can do.
4:44 can't stop laughing 🤣
THAT was classic! great job!
I can't control my laughter when I watch this clip again
