He has such absolutely perfect pick hand/fret hand synchronization. Consistently flawless, whether he's shredding, mixing in legato phrases, jumping 2 or 3 strings at a time. Videos don't do the live experience justice though. If you're a guitarist, you owe it to yourself to see Buckethead play live. Even if you don't care for his style of music, seeing that level of mastery over the instrument displayed just a few feet away from the front of your face … man, it's surreal.
Buckethead also plays bass. Fantastically, about as good as he shreds on the guitar. He used to do bass solo's in his live shows but the gear was too much for him and P Sticks to haul so he dropped it from his show. Check out his bass solo videos...it'll blow your mind.
in music my theory is technical skills are important but not as much as striking an emotional core with your audience to do this you have to think like them and know the impact of your music on their emotional state tech skills give you more options so don't beat your self up you have something we all do 😊
I’m my opinion he is probably the best to ever touch the instrument, the amount of raw talent this takes is incomprehensible to people who don’t play the guitar
It's so truly Magic to watch Big B live. This is what professional guitar playing should sound like. With the largest skillset of any player EVER. Buckethead is without a doubt the G.O.A.T.
Don`t care what anyone else here says about other guitarists being better than Buckethead, young Buckethead was practically untouchable. Even Yngwie didn`t have that precision and speed when he was younger....
This guy is so sick! He's probably the only guitarist who's shredding I actually find enjoyable(yes I know he's great at all genres). You don't quite get a sense of how tall he is, since his guitar is the size of a pool skimmer.
I've just recently discovered Buckethead. What an absolute virtuoso! He's so fun to watch! His notes are so clean and his shredding is magnificent to see and hear. He is astonishing! The bucket and mask add to his mystique.
Buckethead is the greatest guitarist to ever pick up the instrument! He knows his instrument and knows how to get everything possible out of it to produce the perfection wanted and needed to put these amazing songs out! You are watching an artist produce a masterpiece every time you watch him pick up his guitar! Thank you for putting this together for our listening and viewing pleasure!!
As someone who does NOT play guitar (I'm a drummer) I STILL can say with the confidence of an esteemed guitarist... that he is the best player E.V.E.R. This guy is otherworldly. There's really not much more one can say. I could watch it with no volume and his fingers move so effortlessly around the fretboard it's simply elegant
Honestly though, he is not all about speed and being technical, those bends here n there add some emotive touch to his songwriting. He actually plays with feel too keeping all the kill switch,tapping n legato stuff aside
Buckethead has written some totally beautiful and emotional songs. 'Watching the Boats with My Dad' and 'Sparks in the Dark' are two of many. Anyone who says 'all he does is mindlessly shred' hasn't heard a 10th of what the guy can do
Interesting how he plays a Les Paul as his main go-to guitar. Its not known as "shredder's" guitar, and doesn't have a particularly fast neck or good balance. Yet here we are lol.
Bucket head almost speaks to me with the guitar, When i bump siege engine at the gym, it feeds me adrenaline!!! Bucket head is the greatest thank you to my friend Arne for showing me him! BUcket Head you are the Greatest!!!!!
He’s the only one that can improvise a shred solo these days. People don’t hear the preparation. They’re so used to social media solos being clean cut that they forget how much more skill it takes to do this. Anyone can write a slippery solo and do 100 takes of it for a video. Only Buckethead is doing this.
He is kind of a mysterious figure. I listened to an interview with him once talking to a psychologist (???). Pretty sure he is somewhere on the Asperger/autism spectrum (mask, bucket, chickens, etc.) I think there are only 2 glimpses of his face available to the public - a photo with his father on an early album cover - and a brief video clip from when he was in his early 20's entering a venue before donning the mask. Banksy with a guitar???
Man thank you for finding all of this video people don't realize buckethead has been doing this since the what mid 80's m that as long as Matalica as been putting out albums but what is this guy at🤔🤔
He has a nice way of making simple melodies happen on one string, two strings. A few notes even. He's not all speed. He's probably better when he's playing slower and controlled more than super scale connecting time, from a to b and b to a. He has some real soul with little.
I have no idea how he does that sweep tapping. It’s insane. I think there’s a reason no other guitar player has ever done it because he’s the only one that can
I'm pretty sure this guy sold his soul to the devil in exchange for these skills. Epic like a Beethoven or Bach.. I have a feeling that he'll be talked about for a long time after his own. Which is strange to say because after all he is wearing a Kentucky fried Chicken bucket on his head..
i respect that he uses his pinky like a normal hand should... i've seen some guitarists opt to favour using their ring fingers over pinkies by choosing fingering that uses the pinky less, and by shifting their hand positions over to play the 'pinky notes' with their first fingers, thinking it's faster. moving your whole hand versus putting your pinky down? there's no way whole hand movements are ever going to be faster. this is really a bad habit to develop and bad form for a guitarist - it's also very counterintuitive. even django reinhardt would be shaking his head at these players.
Shawn Lane plays using his ring finger more than his pinky, and his playing is not only 10x more critical but so much more musical than BH. Basically he compensates for his skill with musicality. You can't compare the two. It's like chalk and cheese. I can't even begin to describe how much faster Shawn is, check him out and be dumb founded.
I don't care what ANYONE says. Nobody can melt a guitar like Buckethead.
Shawn lane can
@@thebroker2191 But not with a KFC bucket on his head.
@@michaelrstover I drove 6 hours to see BH and even I can say Lane has em beat
@@thebroker2191 idk the jordan solo was kinda insane
@@towel2493 shawn lane is better than buckethead. shawn lane has taught buckethead a lot of the stuff he knows today.
If he breaks a string the string repairs itself out of respect
I wish I could pin this cracked me up right there
@@lynntaylor5080 same here lol
I sure wish he wasn't Sick.

Check out Ewan Dobson. Can't compare the two. But his technique much like bucket heads is amazing. There's no wasted movement.
Saw him live on Halloween 2017 or 2018 I think. It blew my mind
he uses the same reductive patterns all the time. No style or originality. Dimebag had style and originality baby! see HIM live!
The other guy is paul gilbert
Dime a dozen n then there is Buckethead
That's not sweat, that's WD-40!
The way his pinkie moves is dangerously beautiful.
14:00 is probably the most insane playing he ever did live. That "sweep tapping" lick is just unreal.
Would have won many “bet you can’t play this” challenges… if Buckethead actually cared enough to participate in such ostentations. 🐐
Jesus Christ
holy fuck
If I could play the bass half as good as Buckethead shreds on guitar, I would go down as the best shredding bassist
Blasphemy. Les claypool is the bass version of Buckethead.
Gas Masked Bassist i believe you could make that happen
Buckethead also plays bass. Fantastically, about as good as he shreds on the guitar. He used to do bass solo's in his live shows but the gear was too much for him and P Sticks to haul so he dropped it from his show. Check out his bass solo videos...it'll blow your mind.

His skill just blows me away, how can a human be this good?
Thats the thing, he isn't human
@@noathy9408 Much like Neil Peart, Layne Staley, and Robin Williams...he's an alien.
And he can't even see the shit that well. No inlays and a mask. Fuuuuck
@@ChiefRager He can't see it at all.
Better than Hendrix 💯

Not a big shred fan so I agree, Buckethead has soul behind it. I also enjoy Dimebags shredding
I highly recommend checking out Guthrie Govan, he also puts alot of soul into his shredding.
1:11 I will learn that lick
Manuel Rivas did you learn it?
@@danielmccarten4357 I didn't try it
@D He's probably almost got it down … should be any day now … 😉
Maybe now?
You learn it yet?
You can not convince me otherwise
This man has either played guitar since the minute he was born, or he is a terminator made to play guitar
This is exactly how I see myself in my dreams 😭
Why does this dude get so much hate? Straight smasher
He gets hate?
Siege engine sounded so spot on with the studio version
His right hand is so smooth! I can't get over it. Incredible playing. Nobody does it better.
Mozart would be like “Holy crap”! He’s a modern day Paganini
I Love this guy
That first solo was amazing!
He is, and will always be one of the biggest influences into my guitar playing, alongside with Kirk Hammett and James Hetfield ofc.
Lot's of Metallica love I see. I actual want shred like this on the 4-string xD and mix with Cliff's style of playing it'd be gg if I can get there
Good taste my friend
Look deep into Randy Rhoads if you haven’t gotten around to it yet
I've just recently discovered Buckethead. What an absolute virtuoso! He's so fun to watch! His notes are so clean and his shredding is magnificent to see and hear. He is astonishing! The bucket and mask add to his mystique.
1:29 THIS IS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD, no THIS IS EVEN HIGHER LEVEL, It's BUCKETHEAD LEVEL! Ultra perfect sync with this effect pffff.... mind blowing
I went to a Buckethead show once. We were stuck behind a staircase so view sucked but was still the best show I ever been to
Every now and then I love a good Buckethead comp 😌
Buckethead i love you!! I'm a Guitar fan!! From buenos aires🇦🇷 Argentina!🇦🇷😁
Aguante Buckethead carajo!
I'm braziliam and Argentina is WAY much better than brasil.
i love this video so much
thank you
yea bucket is just a true master !
Also if you can please check out my original music !!
Thanks
It’s on my bucket list to see this guy.
Ha! Ha! I see what you did there! There’s nothing funny about Buckethead’s playing, serious shredded wheat!
He's on tour now, get a ticket!
Buckethead is the greatest guitarist to ever pick up the instrument! He knows his instrument and knows how to get everything possible out of it to produce the perfection wanted and needed to put these amazing songs out! You are watching an artist produce a masterpiece every time you watch him pick up his guitar! Thank you for putting this together for our listening and viewing pleasure!!
The sound is incredible. Best live guitar recording ive heard. Clear, clean
I think Buckethead has some of the best alternate picking/ fretting hand synchronization of any shredders out there.
Buckethead is the best, hands down!
Solo of the night of the slunk is freaking insanity !
There's a better live version on TH-cam from Mishawaka 06
The way Buckethead plays is unlike anything or anyone straight talent Fucking Awsome
As someone who does NOT play guitar (I'm a drummer) I STILL can say with the confidence of an esteemed guitarist... that he is the best player E.V.E.R. This guy is otherworldly. There's really not much more one can say. I could watch it with no volume and his fingers move so effortlessly around the fretboard it's simply elegant
Bru , almost blindfolded too.
facts brother
Yea he is really good , best I saw so far
I’m just totally blown away by this guys awesomeness

From another planet. Pinkie Planet!
Interesting how he plays a Les Paul as his main go-to guitar. Its not known as "shredder's" guitar, and doesn't have a particularly fast neck or good balance. Yet here we are lol.
That is a custom oversized Paul designed for shredding
At 1:50 the guy that says "Yeahh" sounds and looks like Paul Gilbert, lol.
Bucketheads guitar shredding speaks to my sould
And 2:22 is so epic. I love so much this guy
Please Name of that song?
@@miguellavado8089 7 laws of woo, the song names are in description
@@Frest99 thank you !

Try "Northern Lights" - 20 minutes long, but you'll feel like you're in a fight scene with the Avengers.

"Dang" gonna burn them strings till nothings left, awesome display of talent. Go Go Go Bucket Head you the Man ☝️

He’s a phenomenon but if you don’t have a whole band you won’t be remembered the same.
The Rainman of guitarists
He is kind of a mysterious figure. I listened to an interview with him once talking to a psychologist (???). Pretty sure he is somewhere on the Asperger/autism spectrum (mask, bucket, chickens, etc.) I think there are only 2 glimpses of his face available to the public - a photo with his father on an early album cover - and a brief video clip from when he was in his early 20's entering a venue before donning the mask.
Banksy with a guitar???
Addicted xxx
Man I love Buckethead so much
To witness Buckethead play would be like witnessing God make his creation of Earth and mankind
I would love to see him live.
Please tell me he does not go through TicketMaster.
Big BH could play in any band. But he would be bored. GOAT.
A lot of these were my favorites already. You've got good taste bro!
Lots of people comparing. BH is a dime a bucket. LoL. Can he shred,no doubt.
Buckethead is a skilled guitarist and a master of effects.
Man thank you for finding all of this video people don't realize buckethead has been doing this since the what mid 80's m that as long as Matalica as been putting out albums but what is this guy at🤔🤔
Damn. I don’t know anybody that has that much skill in their bucket
His brain so big he need a bucket as a hat
This is like shred at its worst…… Great.
Bro you have a Rick and Morty profile pic
He s the ONE !!! ❤
Awesome ... This is the inexhaustible Buckethead
Es el único guitarrista que visto que maneje diferentes velocidades en los dedos utilizando escalas
He has a nice way of making simple melodies happen on one string, two strings. A few notes even. He's not all speed. He's probably better when he's playing slower and controlled more than super scale connecting time, from a to b and b to a. He has some real soul with little.
Incredible speed and clarity of playing
imagine being the person filming right on him who couldnt get anything to focus but the marshall
I combine his and steve vais sgred licks and create my own patterns but using similar runs i love buckethead patterns
Post some stuff dude would love to hear
Face melting stuff. 🎸 👍
So now that Eddie and Prince are both dead, is Buckethead now the greatest? He makes it look so easy! Peace.
He's miles ahead of the both of them
Most amazing bit 10:25
I have no idea how he does that sweep tapping. It’s insane. I think there’s a reason no other guitar player has ever done it because he’s the only one that can
12:33 heaven
saw him 2008 amazing show
The pinky that no one had
Playing like bucket is so fun I’m ngl
I'm pretty sure this guy sold his soul to the devil in exchange for these skills.
Epic like a Beethoven or Bach..
I have a feeling that he'll be talked about for a long time after his own.
Which is strange to say because after all he is wearing a Kentucky fried Chicken bucket on his head..
He can play fast but he plays with a lot of feel as well, he knows when to inject some emotion with a big string bend.
I fucking L O V E seige engine live. Cant get enough of it man.
The best that's all.
This is just Raw Talent
i respect that he uses his pinky like a normal hand should... i've seen some guitarists opt to favour using their ring fingers over pinkies by choosing fingering that uses the pinky less, and by shifting their hand positions over to play the 'pinky notes' with their first fingers, thinking it's faster. moving your whole hand versus putting your pinky down? there's no way whole hand movements are ever going to be faster. this is really a bad habit to develop and bad form for a guitarist - it's also very counterintuitive. even django reinhardt would be shaking his head at these players.

1:45 yeah buddy that's it !!!🤘
Love rock 🤘❤️💛💚💙🖤🖤♥️💀
INCREDIBLE 😍😍😍😍😍😍
Has he recorded the first one or was that on the spot?
Probs on spot, don't know for sure
On the spot imrpov. Night of the slunk at Bootsy's birthday bash.
I'm pretty sure he's pretty good for sure
guys listen to chris buck if you're tired of this none stop shredding
My dream is to play the intro to Jordan lol
I'm playing from 9:30 to 9:43 in loop...please somebody help me!!!
Awesome 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
hes hands cant be human
Dude has fingers as long as hot dogs. I think it helps, so does Vai.
10:04 thank me later
@@antojovin6686 Buckethead - Jordan
0:40 my fav part
Same
Love the killswitch… I’ve hit that bitch like 4 times ❤❤
WTF the second clip
The stretch at 1:10, sheesh
His brain was designed to play guitar!
Dave Mustaine said Bucket is 2 times better than him and Slash combined.
the kind of guitar player that makes you wish you play drums....
