I love how Syn never stagnated as a guitarist. His solos get better with every album, and the feel he puts into them is insane. Makes some of his old solos sound dull since some are just him mindlessly shredding.
jesus, reading out your comment again, how can you say such bs? I mean M.I.A. solo? Sidewinder acoustic solo? Save me solo? dull and mindless shredding? so stupid comment
@@csanadmusicthey are all good, and maybe its becsuse Im older than when I first started listening to them but Ill take the phermi paradox or the stage solos over bat country and MIA.
@@christtel1484 they are definitely different, but pls refrain from saying they are dull or mindless shredding because they are the most lively and energised solos I’ve heard
@@christtel1484 A lot of his old Solos definitely were fast and flashy for the Sake of it, but they also had feeling back then. Gotta agree with his Solos since The Stage though - different level.
Syn used to be a bit sloppy playing fresh material the first few months which is to be expected. He absolutely slaughtered that solo. The amount he improved from nightmare to The Stage is insane. The amount he improved from The Stage til now may be even more impressive. I should note that I believe Nobody has been complete or at least close for a few years now so he probably has played it a lot but still... just damn that's impressive. A lot of his playing his going to go down as legendary. Really gives me some Allan Holdsworth vibes in this solo. Probably due to the complexity. Holdsworth was a pianist that learned guitar, essentially he played guitar in more of a piano way. The Nobody solo was written to be a violin solo and the band was going to find a youtube violinist to play it, but due to time and the pandemic the band just told Syn to do what he does and rip a nasty solo. He played that violin solo on a guitar and he was pissed with the way it sounded and hated it for a while. All while the rest of the band and everyone that heard it said it was incredible. Edit: just going to say that the part about the Nobody solo is straight from Syn's mouth in an interview shortly after the release of Nobody.
We'll, considering that this song was probably written 3 years ago and it's his most technical solo (don't even argue about it) I would not be surprised if this was his full skill live, but we will see
Sorry but that story about the violin is bogus. Maybe it has some truth in it, like maybe they really did want a violin solo there at first and then changed their mind or something, but the fact that this particular solo was written for a violin is nonsense. Anyone who knows anything about guitar playing can immediatley see this solo was written by a guitar player as it incorporates many guitar specific techniques, specifically ones common in metal. And anyone who knows anything about playing the violin could tell you that it's VERY unsuited for the istrument. Either the entire sotry is BS or maybe there's a shard of truth to it, but it's definitely not a violin solo played by a guitar player like you said.
@@JokerCat9 End of the nobody trax episode he talks about making this guitar a production model with schecter. Its coming. The one hes playing here is very frankenstiened and custom.
@@y3llowgd943 Diffrent body shape. Its Schacter. But probobly only for him. But who know. Schecter latly get pretty good guitarist roster so maybe they star doing stuff like headless
@@zulkhairia.182Ofcourse its his solo but he has played that on studio where u do parts lot of the times over and over until its perfect + in studio he plays guitar when he sits on a chair so sweeping/alternative picking is lot easier. In this scenario its onetake, he stands(playing is harder) + they havent performed in a long time cause covid and its first time to play their new song live what also brings pressure what the audience thinks about it. Its not about like he doesn´t know how the solo is played. According all of this Syn nailed it in a way many couldve not done the same even close in this kind of scenario. So mad respect!
Love that we can finally see the official way of playing it! Too many youtubers doing extra tapping to cover some of the crazy note ranges, but they never sounded quite right.
I think best solo ever, starts off fast af, full of octaves, and perfect transitions , especially the slides, different dimension of playing guitar, my man syn putting math into his solos
You are such a legend for recording this in such high quality focusing on Syn. I've been trying to find a good video of it so I can transcribe the solo accurately.

? why
It is Syn…
i can
Bro Syn is great live

bro as much as i love the solo. i think the drums are sooooooooooooo fucking good here
Ive been saying this, the drums sound almost like the way someone breathes when they're crying, all frantic and such
No way their last drummer could’ve played this. Sad he got fired but Brooks is the guy.
@@H.E.M. each drummer has their own style. Their new drummer changed their style of music and it’s surprisingly a good fit for A7x.

This is one of the hardest solo I ever played, and seeing Syn put all his focus to play it live here is so wonderful. It really is a hard solo.❤
I sat down the other day and just tried to play it slow, and it was still such a challenge.

@@elbentzo go argue with the band themselves then cus they said it on their podcast
That guitar is so sick! I want it now
They're making a production version soon
there go the life savings...
It’s pretty cheap bro, only $2,450
@@JokerCat9 No. they're not. There's nothing about it that's been said by Schecter as of yet.
@@JokerCat9 End of the nobody trax episode he talks about making this guitar a production model with schecter. Its coming. The one hes playing here is very frankenstiened and custom.
Dude's got impeccable timing. Plus he loves gypsy jazz
He's awesome
Either that’s a custom Kiesel Thanos or Schecter is going to finally make a headless guitar haha
it looks like a kiesel vader
Definitely not a Thanos. that 100% looks like Schecter made a headless Avenger for him.
He will be in contract with Schecter so doubt he would play another brand. Most likely from the customer shop!
@@y3llowgd943 Diffrent body shape. Its Schacter. But probobly only for him. But who know. Schecter latly get pretty good guitarist roster so maybe they star doing stuff like headless
It also has a 7th string. Which might appear on a song on the album unfourtunatly.
Mad respect for syn to play a solo that accurately for the first time live!⚡️💯👌🏻 Mad respect!!!🤟🏼
it’s his solo. he should be playing it better if anything
@@Korbs7 im about to say a same thing. that’s literally his solo wtf this guy talking about.

Basement players man... (if even)
DUDE. thank you so much for this, by far the best video of him playing it live. And he nailed it too, jesus
man thats a really fucking cool solo
I remember people used to hate on gates for his sloppy guitar work. Now look at him
Absolutely unbelievable player
This show was absolutely incredible to be at, thanks for posting this!
Syn in his best form of all time. Trust me. He playing so clean as never before.
Damm that headless with the syn style body looks sooo good
meh
really nice looking. looks far better than the schecter syn sig imo.
It's based on schecter avenger body
@@451days yeah would play better than one as well
@@hasahchan4775 better colors and no more stupid ass headstock
Syn never failed to impress the audiens everytime he doing the solo part 🤩
Love that we can finally see the official way of playing it! Too many youtubers doing extra tapping to cover some of the crazy note ranges, but they never sounded quite right.
AMAZING!!!
M. Shadows with that Rammstein shirt though. 🤯
I can’t wait to see this in person 😮💨
They sound amazing live, take a shroom before one of their shows and you’ll feel amazing 🤝🏻
That new freaking guitar... killer man
That solo is amazing. Tremendous and so clean live 🤯
love the new guitar
Yes it's got 7 strings, the low string is tuned to 'A' to play the nobody riff
This man has consistently grown and evolved as a guitarist.. What a legend
Best of the best
His live playing has got so much better (not saying it was bad before). Love that headless guitar too. New custom Schecter soon maybe?
Yeah you can tell he’s more experienced now
I think best solo ever, starts off fast af, full of octaves, and perfect transitions , especially the slides, different dimension of playing guitar, my man syn putting math into his solos

Bad assery! Thanks 🤘🏻
Once a legend, always a legend
that new signature guitar *__*
Killed that solo! Damn🤘🏼
Incredible
My Legends😎
I never really noticed his „Marty Friedman Style“ picking technique, although he‘s been my inspiration to start playing guitar.
You can see that through the years, Syn keeps improving
Impressive !
Great composition and playing .
Syn gets better each album , what a fucking beast
My idol is back
Der beste neue Gitarrist. Solos mit Groove und geiler Technik, sowie Style.
The nod of “yeah, that went really well” at the end 😂
My thoughts exactly lol
he's really tightened up his live performance playing
Dear God song,reminds me of childhood memories where everything was as fresh as the bright blue sky
Amazing
Damn syn you great man! We love u man
Matt really loves that shirt. Seen like 3 different interviews with him in it
Bela guitarra nova
About time Syn picked up an extended rang guitar. Then he goes and makes a masterpiece like this solo with it. SO excited for LIBAD.
Dude ain't playing a solo, he's driving a manual-gearbox bigass heavy duty truck 💀
cool man
perfect
Best guitarist on the planet.
É como se a guitarra estivesse chorando mas feliz ao mesmo tempo, sinistra gates é outro nível.
esse cara é gênio
Eveybody is talking about Nuno's solo but i think this was the solo of 2023 🔥
people who talk about how beast is the drum player, nobody
Su PTM escurri como pistola de silicon de ver como Mat tiene una playera de RAMMSTEIN. Ni si quiera mi esposa y yo tuvimos tanta conexión ❤
Esse é o Synyster Gates🙏
Technical level is so damn High... Solos and drums🎉🎉🎉
Badass
o cara é foda patroa
Loved the Auddience how they cheered at the end
I saw it on a video from far; but didn't realise it was a Schecter headless Syn custom!
Yes. There's alot of people that feel a certain type of way with the direction of A7X...but it allowed this.
Where can I get one of those guitars?? 😂 Already have the schecter version, and it's one of my favorite guitars.
This is a guitar like the guitar of the Indonesian dangdut king #Rhoma Irama
in my country thats guitar use by legendary dangdut singer.. u two is awesome
Not possible since it’s a 1/1 specifically build for Syn.
The singer you mentioned is using Steinberger/stanberg not schecter
Syn gates with signature headless guitar?😮
Just started learning yesterday first synyster gates song I’m learning
aku teringat gitar dari Rhoma Irama headless 🤪🥰😍
I Cried.
best Syn solo ever
0:42 goes so hard
Shadows looks sick in this lighting…..
I prefer the head with horns over no head and no horns but thats me
Solo is fire!
Which S21 Ultra lens are you using? Its amazing!!
S21 Ultra x10 periscope camera!
New signature?
Bruh! The guitar changed completely & Syn my boy has changed his hair OMG still adorable though
Synyster Sweeps 🤘
IS SYN PLAYING A HEADLESS 7 STRING???
Yep
Yeah , Rhoma Irama guitar 👨🎤
Ladies and gentleman, the guitar master Synyster Gates 🎩🎸👏
Never had a doubt this fuckin guy would nail it live
They really go all prog on this album. Reminds me a bit of tool and dream theater.
If u r prog fan, I suggest you Symphony X
He clearly enjoys playing this solo. He’s even impressed he pulled off his own material lol
new guitar? 🎸
Just make a new signature in that color and id be all over it
the face he made at the end was like "not bad, not bad".
I want that guitar so fuckin bad🥵😭💫❤️🔥
The guitar is Schecberg
wtf is this guitar. my heart is melting.
Synester loves Alan Holdsworth so much he even got the headless guitar now.🤣🤣
Syn gaining weights??
I can't believe it, A7X become like this, Metalcore to ProgRock, I don't know must be happy or not
his face at the end: damn i missed that pinch harmonic!
Dude makes it look like it’s as simple as making a grilled cheese, yet it’s rattatoulli level culinary skill.
Gitar romah irama
Someone tab it out pls
synyster custom headless 7 string?wow
nobody solo seems give Syn a hard time face like when he did mia solo back then..that solo look freakin incredible but men, synyster always nailed it
