      If a guy has a guitar that looks like this, you know that he doesn’t have a gf and has never played standing up. Hendrix didn’t play sitting down like he’s on a toilet. 😂😂😂😂

    The titanium balls required to play this without any backing track is really what makes this more impressive.
    Edit: lots of people are misunderstanding this comment. It isn't that playing with backing track is easier than metronome- it's that people who play with backing tracks end up hiding a ton of mistakes behind a shoddy back track. This dude has nothing to hide behind, he only has a metronome clicking, which means any mistake is immediately audible. His playing has to be 100.00% perfect, or you would hear the mistakes instantly. Go look up other Necrophagist covers and you'll see what I mean; people with 100s of thousands of views will literally just play over the full song, hiding behind Suicmez. This guy cannot do that.

      there are some others: strandberg, tosin abasi's guitars, steve klein's been at it 50 years. that said, this design seems particularly successful. i think to get something that fits your body this well, it probably has to be designed for you specifically.
      time to grab some cardboard, find a shape you like, then mock it up in cheap wood and bolt on a dirt cheap squier neck. experiment until its perfect for you.

      @runrin_ 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +39

      ​@@acatnamedjoex4688 i think a guitar like this at least gives you the best chance to avoid injury.
      for insanely technical stuff like this where you have look at the fretboard the entire time, you don't really have any good options to keep your back straight. tapping doesnt help either since it pulls your right shoulder forward.
      if you look at the posture of professional classical players, who often use supports or stools, they usually don't slouch like this, even for the more technical pieces in their repertoire.
      it's possible to have great poture, but most of the time you need to compromise because the guitar is just awkward and not easy to hold.

      only when sitting down man. as soon as he stands up, you pay back everything you gained while sitting down with the added weight, bulkiness and looks.. on top of that this thing looks like a regular guitar got late stage cancer, absolutely hideous. a failed concept IMO.

    • @hazardeur
      @hazardeur 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +18

      talking about design.....i was thinking for 5 secs about this and it is clear that the better solution is a more regular and nice looking guitar and just add a click-on part that is shaped like the bottom part here. once you stand up, remove the part and off you go. that way you have the best of both worlds and your instrument does't looks like it got out of a freakshow

      the caMera is on a tripod so it would be easy to mask out the sped up clock and use that part of the frame at normal speed. The reason it sounds insanely perfect in terms of timing and the physics (hair, muscle movement) look unnatural is because thats exactly what he did. You can also see weird video artifacts from whatever smoothing/blend effect he used (watch his nose/face and youll see this when he moves his head) which helps offset the uncanny valley aspect of the sped up motion.

    This is incredibly brave and well executed. Decent tone, too. For the people crapping on the shape of the guitar - as an older guy who played guitar obsessively for a few decades and then had to stop I would encourage anyone to play and practice with as much ergonomic comfort as possible. Also, if this guy can play like that bare and with a metronome he will be fine cutting it live, in my opinion.

    I have listened to Epitaph so many times that I can hear every single instrument under these solos.
    Edit: Someone else also pointed this out in the comments.
    Also, this video is 8 min give or take, Epitaph is about 33, so that means that about 20% of the album is solos. And every single note serves a purpose; a perfect video, to highlight a perfect album.

    I remember seeing them on tour with Summer Slaughter a little while after this album came out. They headlined, and as they began playing their first song the entire crowd formed a gigantic empty circle in the middle of the floor and as I looked around it became clear that nobody was moshing, nobody was even bobbing their head to the music. We were all just standing there in awe.
