The clarity of his notes is just insane. That is much of his presence. Simply the articulation and clear intonation. Makes everything he does shine brighter, even the dark bits.
If you lookup on TH-cam Matteo performing Guthrie Govan's 5's, Matteo plays the notes clearer and his solo is more melodic.
Dude is like an alien from a distant galaxy: not only does he have insanely phenomenal chops, he's musically captivating, always interesting, and with an amazing clarion-like tone to boot.
Great video , Mark !! That guy is absolutely sick !!!
Thanks!
Haha, 3:11 you say, "What even happened there?" I was at his show a few weeks ago sitting at a table and a woman there said exactly the same thing, she was hearing him for the first time. What a treat seeing him live, the show was amazing.
I need to go see him live too!
Matteo Mancuso is probably one of the best in history. His technique and feeling are simply overwhelming.
The feeling is far from overwhelming!
Crazy how he makes that pinch harmonics sound without a pick as well
Jerry Reed used to finger pick notes this way, this style isn't unheard of. Matteo just takes it to another level and across genres.
He using classical and flamenco techniques and also rock.. He previously stated he studied classical and played acoustic. He played a classical/flamenco gig with Al DiMeola. He's fusing those styles in a cool way.
Matteo would have a hard time playing Jerry and Chet's stuff. I have heard Matteo out of his comfort zone and he has his weak spots.
I've been playing guitar for over 30 years and I've been listening to great guitarists for a long time. I've heard everything you can imagine, so I'm rarely impressed by anyone. Because, as a rule, the feeling is "I've heard that before" or "great technique, but...". When I saw Matteo Mancuso a few years ago on TH-cam my jaw dropped. He had the most insane, natural technique I'd seen since Shawn Lane. And he was equally musical. I was sure that Matteo would become one of the greatest guitarists in the world at that moment. And it's happening. He's from another planet.
You said it all with the musicality there! So true!
Yes. Something as incredible as Shawn Lane or Allan Holdsworth, which is insane. Plus he doesn't put technique before substance. I'm with him for 4 years now and God this young guy is something.
@HARTELNMTA314 nice! I will check Kent out too.
Matteo has gone far beyond Shawn and I'm sure Shawn would be upset about the appearance of Matteo on the scene. Just like when Jimi came out, some people quit playing guitar. Same thing happened when Van Halen came out. Leslie West quit playing for a while the restarted touring before his death.
I love it... Guitar players at that level seem superhuman to me.
His dad was his main inspiration. See videos from NAMM with Matteo and Vincenzo Mancuso at Bacci guitars. Brings tears of sheer joy.
I just saw those last night. So cool!
When accomplished shredders finger pick they sound like Ritchie Kotzen which is cool but Matteo is a whole other level with the cleanliness, precision and fluidity of his picking.
Best guitarist in the whole wide world.
No not at all
@@henrygeorge4876 Yes. The master of all classes.
On your knees, you mere mortal ! ☝🏻😁
@@Io-Io-Io cringe
@@johnlemon874 binge
is not restricted to flamenco technique but it is classical guitar general technique called "note appoggiate" o "tocco appoggiato"
He said on Beato interview he put some gel on nails
Paco! Of the electric😎
Very good.
And he's playing a Yamaha Revstar!
You know, I kept wondering what kind of guitar that was! Thanks for mentioning that.
Mostruosamente immenso!!! Il più grande chitarrista al mondo... versatile, veloce, preciso, tecnicamente unico!!! pazzesco 😱😱😱😱!
26 at that he is 27. Matteo is on top the world right now Nobody can match his Tone He is #1 in my book. May 5 2024
Yeah you can pretty much here all his notes at any speed and they are good ones with meaning. There are some interviews with him on Rick Beato channels.
Yeah the Gilmore effect with speed . He has studied classical and jazz and his Dad is player to.
Richie Kotzen has been playing without a pick for years now, and he sounds amazing!
I haven't listened to him in some time. I have to go back and check out his more recent stuff!
Also check Matteo's work with the band Drift-Lab. They have an album out and some amazing videos on youtube.
Oh awesome thanks!!!
BTW: The pick doesn't create the harmonic effect; it's the finger, the natural skin that creates the sound, with our without a pick, so it won't make the harmonic sound is he had plastic skinir fingers, but this kid has great finger technique, which makes you want to learn flamenco style playing...
Noi tutti quando ascoltiamo qualcosa o qualcuno di nuovo siamo portati a paragonare o ad altri musicisti o a codificare il genere a qualche sound già esistente. È un errore, e l' ho fatto anche io. A volte mi sembrava Eddie Van Halen...Beck...Hendrix..Gambale...Lee Riteneur, Pat Metheney...il sound fusion del primo Jeff Lorber...Mezzoforte..gli U Zeb...oppure il fantastico Issei Inoro dei Casiopea...il fraseggio ricorda Rudess o Cotra al synth..?! O a Valeriy Stepanov..o a...NESSUNO!!!!
Matteo è unico...che non vuol dire più bravo o meno bravo... più tecnico o meno virtuoso... Matteo ha il suo modo di suonare, ha la sua tecnica...tutto ciò che ha e che trasmette con la sua musica è unico.
Bisogna però dire oggettivamente che Matteo è di un altro pianeta, non paragonabile a nessun altro chitarrista della storia, poiché quello che fa sulla chitarra è anche solo impossibile da pensare per qualsiasi altro musicista. E chi lo soffre dice di lui che è pura tecnica o idiozie simili... Matteo ha un fraseggio anche con note e passaggi velocissimi che è discorsivo ...il suo fraseggio è domanda e risposta, è tensione e risoluzione, sempre. Perciò non parlate di tecnica ma dite la pura verita, che Matteo non suona le corde della chitarra ma racconta ogni volta unaa storia con la chitarra, una storia che solo chi ha ottime orecchie e grande anima può comprendere. Nessuno esegue il legato come Matteo, col distorsore o senza...e poi è chiaro, limpido...e cosa dire del suo suono, del suono della sua chitarra...rotondo, chiaro, morbido o graffiante quando serve.
Uomini come lui sono come prescelti da Dio... È unico come Mozart... Aristotele...Dante, Einstein, Michelangelo, Paganini, Freud e altri uomini unici, di grande ingegno e anima. Matteo è Dio fatto persona...la sua chitarra è il vangelo dell'anima e nessuno prima di lui né dopo di lui avrà una tale immensa capacità di forgiare, pensare, eseguire musica in nano secondi cosi meravigliosamente complessa ma celestiale e comprensibile, trasmettendo gioia al contempo al cuore e all' anima di chi ascolta.
Grazie Matteo di esistere e di farci sentire cose che ci lasciano a bocca aperta.
Insuperable. Stunning!👏🎸
This is Claudio Quartarone's guitar technique!
Anyone in the UK can catch Matteo playing live at Ronnie Scott’s on Thursday 4th April with his band Drift-Lab. A few tickets left last time I looked. You don’t nave to be a member to buy tickets. I can’t wait.
Matteo is amazing. In interviews, he's said that only his thumbnail is natural, he uses Acrylic Nails on his fingers and keeps them short so they don't get hooked on the strings.
As you mentioned, he has beautiful tone. He is very musical, and besides being able to play lightning fast, it is also very clean. His recent interview with Rock Beato is well worth watching.
I loved that interview!
Crazy talent
No pick makes so much sense. Has to give you infinitely mote options
Matteo is great and it has been fun watching all his NAMM jams this week on TH-cam! Another great guitar player to check out if you haven't already is Tim Henson from Polyphia. Their song called "Playing God" is mind blowing!
Tim is a player that I have listened to quite a bit! Thanks for sharing.
check out Rick Beato's interview he did yesterday with Matteo and Mateus Asato it was so fun!
@@MusicWithMarky
I just watched it!
Hopefully my channel is big enough one day to be able to interview players like that.
Did everyone just forget about Mark Knopfler? He is a finger 'stylist' if that's the word. Granted that his right hand is a claw position, but let's give him the credit he's due. However, Matteo is insanely skilled and likely was left here on accident by aliens. But at the end of the day, you have to play music that people like. Paco de Lucia was just absolutely amazing! But I was worn out after 10 minutes of a 1000 notes a bar! EVH was a GOAT candidate (not going there) cause he combined all of this with MELODY. His fills were so complimentary to the song he was playing.
Yes. Matteo is the new GOAT. His approach to string theory is revolutionary, in it's simplicity. If only he had 6 fingers....
and he's from Sicily, look into video of Matteo riffing off of his dad...
Cut this stupid goat thing out. Who was the old goat, new goat my ass!
I love his GYPSY JAZZ version
Watching him bend the strings across the width of the neck and vibrated them was scary.
He's so musical too. Like Larry Carlton on steroids. Incredible.
I agree!
If all other humans are in awe, then this guy is an Alien.
Marky, you are spot on, same here concerning: "the most interesting guy since Allan Holdsworth", he is also evolving very well, from Hendrix and Led Zeppelin to... infinity and beyond?
That's the thing too, right? He's young. He still has lots of evolution to go on the instrument.
He’s fresh and the next level in guitar innovation excellent performer 👍
Matteo has listend to every Kind of music from Classical to Heavy Metal
Yamaha makes guitars just for Matteo Look at Rich Beato and you can see his fingers
Yes totally late to the party. Imagine how famous he'd be if he was around in the 70s
True!
In His interview he said has very strong nails.
Oh cool. Thanks.
1 pick vs 3-4 fingers He is very Fast plays very Clean Matteo is 27 years old He trims his own finger nails. Everyone Loves his tone and he pinch harmonics alot
I believe he uses acrylic nails on his fingers.
Really interesting technical idea. It's like he has a pick on each finger!
Maybe he should come out with his own line of guitarist fingernails... Does anyone do acrylic nails in tortoiseshell?
Lol
It is normal classical playing... don't get me wrong, the dude is good but as a long time E-guitarist who transitioned to spanish and classical playing 20 years ago I must say , I am amused by the hype ...
I can certainly understand how you'd feel that way. Do you have any stuff online that I could check out?
Bass, Flamenco, Classico tecnique, all in one
Matteo is THAT ONE from 1 000 000 000
Matteo is the best since Holdsworth, although Holdsworth’s note choices are more unique
Agreed!
the little italian he is a monster titan
The Muhammad Ali of geetah!
"Goat" is kind of overused with guitarists but matteo is the new "hot" guy and he's really really good. His right hand is amazing... took Billy Sheehan technique and applied it to guitar
People need ro understand that good player don't need expensive guitar or expensive effect. It's all about gifted skilled player. This guy reach playing on the high high level with fingers. Pick is making you slow performing that's fact.
Mancuso is over rated. He's all technique and no soul....no feel. Anyone can train themselves to play shred and arpeggios. But can he place just the right now at the precise time? How is his dynamics and nuances? I just don't dig this guy.
I think any sense of someone's feel or soul is completely personal. It's really about what you connect with. If you don't feel any soul out of somebody's playing then it's just not something your personally and harmony with. For me when I listen to this guy on Spotify, his songs actually speak to me. I like a little bit of shred of course, but I do need more than that. That said, if his melodic parts and songwriting itself doesn't speak to you then it's just not for you.
Yes he is fenomenal! By the way: Mark Knopfler does it too. (And I do, but I play..... different ;) )
Oh yeah and Jeff Beck too, I don't know that they do that flamenco type thing though.
Listen Max Ostro…
Phenom but more technical show off than real musicality. He is so young. Sure a great guitar player for the future.
This old guy comments seems to be amazed like a five years old kid, seeing his buddy doing some incredible technical tricks! This is not what true lead guitar is about!
I have always played electric without a pick. I am not as good as Matteo.
''.... I am not as good as Matteo.''
Yeah I knew that already.
@iknowright6090 Who is?
@@iknowright6090 I was being ironic, of course.
@@mattjames4978 I knew that too
I play basketball.I’m not as good as Michael Jordan.😂
Rick Beato interviewed him answering all your questions how he does this including picking and no his fingernails are short
I saw that after I posted this. Cool stuff! Maybe one day my channel will be big enough that I can interview guys like this!
In another clip, Rick played Eddie Van Halen playing Eruption live and Matteo stated it was f***ing crazy.
Problem is, HE NEVER PLAYS ANY LICKS,, - it's just running up and down scales super fast. Is that actually playing guitar. ???
@ sky- i agree .his control and technique are perfect but not all that musical .
a blues guitar critic said of Johnny winters when he first hit the scene ,
" he plays five notes where three will do " . personally i liked winters at the time but the guy had a point..
His father has taught him since he was about 5YO.
There is speed, and there is taste, but Matteo masters both. He is the very best.
Agreed!
No different than any other shreader.
No goats here.
Van Halens debut album was 1978, not an 80’s song at all
Good point, but he always think of Van Halen as an '80s band because they fit that whole era so perfectly.
He’s really good but ain’t the goat
Derrick Trucks and Lindsay Buckingham play with fingers but this kid is as good as it gets
He’s 27
The new BOAT...
Govan still the best for me, techers, knowledge, any genre, and what makes him the best is the improv
I love Govan too!
@@MusicWithMarky I should hope so, from what I can tell and I may well be wildly incorrect, it's often the case, but seems like Matteo is playing something madly rehearsed and managed, there seems to be little I can find of him just riffing improv, it seems so stage managed which I'm not saying is wrong in any way, you gotta have the techers to do it, but the soul comes out in the improv, and that's just where the likes of govan and van Helen can just watch and admire this guy but know they've an edge haha
@@duzmano8161 Nonsense, it's sufficient to listen to 3 versions of the same song (e.g. The Chicken) to hear that he's improvising.
Goat is code for favoured freemason
Well, Matteo in the electric universe, the acoustic universe is
a diferent dimension… Must see Yamandu Costa…
Ohh cool, I'll check Costa out!
Jeff back
The answer is no. Yes, he has amazing techniques. But I know classical guitar players have a do that for years. It's no big deal. You have to have more than technique to be The new Goat. He's got no claws or teeth. But he will definitely gum and paw you death. 😅😅😅
Richie Kotzen plays like this as well. He got sick of losing his picks, said "f it" and just gave up and started playing with his fingers.
Oh I never knew that! That's a player I've listened to in years past, but not his recent work.
@@MusicWithMarky check him out, the winery dogs are a great band, and he matured to sound like Chris Cornell.
Check Jack Pearson man!
Will do!
@@MusicWithMarky
Won't be disappointed!
Mark Knopfler is also a great no-pick guy.
He’s obviously quick, fast different techniques. But It’s one way.
Anybody can do that in the classical world, there are tons of classical players Just try them
What an incredible virtuoso! But am I the only one who thinks that after a while it all starts to sound the same? Apparently so. Neil Young once said, "Guys like Steve Vai and Joe Satriani, they're genius guitar players. But I can't relate. One note is enough."
This has got to be all AI generated :-)
Lol
His technique is flawless but i don't care for the play ten notes where three will do type of playing.
I preger music thats melodic and meaningful. Today its become more like gymnastics. Id rather hear a solo with a few notes that moves you a lot more than a rapid fire exercise type solo that may impress you for the musicians skills but its not nearly as musical.
That balance between what you enjoy playing and impresses other musicians and something just purely melodic that a non-musician could love is a fun thing to find.
It's guitar aerobics with no soul or heartfelt feelings IMHO!
Interesting. He's one of the shredder guys who I'm finding that I feel like I do get melody and feeling from when I listen to his music.
Ok ok. But I will never get the emotions or joy I got with VH. Eddie is the greatest the world ever had. It’s not a question of technical approach, but the spirit. Nevertheless the guy is really good.
That's the beauty of music. We all connect with different things at different times.
@@MusicWithMarky you’re right. These days I’m more into Rabbea style of sound and playing
I love his stuff!
It makes you want to throw away your pick .....
Right?!
Matteo is a million times better than Van Halen and makes Eddie sound like a rank amateur-agreed? Eddie stinks compared to Matteo.
I don't think so. I don't think Matteo thinks so either. Eddie created an entire new generation of guitar. As great as Matteo is, I don't think he's changing the direction of the guitar playing world writ large.
🤦🏻
"I wonder if he can do pinch harmonic without a pick" 🤣🤣Mate, no offense, are you deaf??
