here's the remedy for your suckiness, download this video., play it back on software that can slow it down to a crawl (actually TH-cam can slow play videos) learn 1-2 measures at a time until you know the entire song then start increasing the speed, i'd say if you do this every day for 5-6 years you MIGHT be as good as Tom :-).................I'm on my 3rd year so far :-) I'll keep trying, My motto is as long as i keep practicing........."I suck less today, than yesterday"
@@madmaestro3002 oh, how kind words, maestro!...however I find with my three Yamaha Pacifica 112Vs,,,the string trees quite irrelevant...., I still have them Graphtecs but really I love the slight rattle of the b and e string versus them string trees, mine are tuned very low whole octave down dont try that in a hurry!!!, floatin against the body, srpings hard and light, Cheers!, K : )
Very impressive playing. Just a reminder to anyone who is discouraged by how awesome tom is - he has been playing "spain" for who knows how many years... its not exactly "purely improvised", he had tons of time to experiment and formulate his moves (which are awsome) to the tune. His playing is wonderful and diverse, but there is a lot of repetition. I think there is less of his stuff getting transcribed because of his fourth's tuning.
Your argument makes 2 statements. 1. He has been practicing for many years 2. Practicing a song means you can't improvise on it I disagree with the second, while the first is obvious and i can prove to you that you are wrong. If it were true that if you practice a song, you are not improvising when you play it later, then such a thing as improvisation does not exist because every musician has and is practicing. Since improvisation exists and both statements are diametrically opposed, it proves that you are wrong. Practicing is how you build vocabulary which later you combine in infinite many ways. Just like when you learn the alphabet and phrases.
@@JonMurray in my comment, "Argument" was clearly used with a different meaning than what you are trying to make it out to be. I was proving a point, not arguing. Either you do not have sufficent knowledge of the English language or you are simply trying to be a troll. I am not interested in either.
The long awaited duo after Truth in Shredding era feat. Allan Holdsworth+Frank Gambale, and Cacophony era feat. Jason Becker+Marty Friedman. Tom Quayle+Martin Miller has successfully shaped the future of guitar scene. Good luck to both u masters.
I've been watching Tom on TH-cam a bit more than 4 years now. I noticed Tom back then demo-ing a Jet City amp. It's Tom's technique that allows this extraordinary gtr work. Not an accident; I bet he knows all of Segovia's diatonic major & minors backwards.
Tom's probably the most fluid legato player in the world, with actual good *musical* chops... People rave about Marshall Harrison but I think he lacks *substance* in the phrasing department. Rick Graham is right up there, but he's more of a stacatto economy picker.
marshall is phenomenal and the most technically and musically gifted but his phrasing isnt the best in terms of funky fusion rock, which i could care less. i enjoy marshalls enormous chops and tonal mixture. and i enjoy tom of course. but i listen to more than just guitar.
Tom Quayle and Guthrie Golvan are the 2 dudes that are turning this world upside down ! I just can't wrap my mind around the fact that they do it with some easy face !
Have you watched any Gustavo Guerra? Another guy who will take ANY guitar piece and reproduce it perfectly, with ease and pleasure. And lately he's been into jazz fusion.
I'm assuming Tom is still using his unorthodox tuning? I'd be curious to know if that might gain greater acceptance, as it does seem to confer benefits. I think Alex Hutchings also plays an unorthodox tuning, but not sure if it's the same as Tom's. Both killer players of course.
I heard Tom say in his podcast that, although he created legato patterns he can reuse, his playing, note/scale selection is 100% improvised. Just listen to this vid at 50% speed to hear - actually hear - what he is playing. It's more impressive once you have done that.
@@shanely7317 There are quite the many episodes :( I can't remember which one. Here you can find all of them. If you are a guitar player and a fan of Tom and his buddies, then this is for you: www.theguitarhour.com/
I have been playing guitar for almost 30yrs and I am a jazz guy but IMO opinion the only difference between jazz and shred is tone this song here is jazz
I love love LOVE Tom, but, food for thought: Jason Richardson. I know it's not fusion, but it's like every single note Jason writes is thought out in explicit detail. His melodic ideas aren't the mindless 64th notes you here in a lot of tech metal. I think they're brilliant, but feel free to disagree. Hope you enjoy tho!
@@pathaleyguitar9763 for Jazz / fusion players, it's the ability to improvise that counts, technical facility is just a means to an end. Tom is improvising for most of this video, and also Guthrie wouldn't play the same solo twice. Jason Richardson is not that great of an improviser (from what I've seen), he's from a new breed of electric guitarist that are more like virtuoso classical musicians. I'm therefore not sure they're comparable, would be like comparing Lang Lang to Chick Corea.
@@martinpaddle Oh I actually entirely agree with most of what you're saying. The only reason I responded with Jason Richardson as an example (and also Jason Becker and Petrucci would be good examples here) was because the prompt was "find a more melodic and interesting shredder" not "find a more adept improviser and fusion guitarist". I honestly don't really put Tom in the "Shred" category, so I agree with you that it's not appropriate to compare him to people that are in the shred category, but the prompt put him there, so I went for it. But yes, I agree with you!
Je ne supporte pas la tête de Martin Miller pendant que Tom Quayle joue. C'est vraiment un manque de respect total !!!Tom est absolument un fantastique guitariste.
Ye Olde Sorry but most people find this kind of music and playing boring in the world. Sure musicians love it but most of the world aren’t musicians. Hence, why it never breaks the charts and never has...
@@nsen74 what most people find interesting is not a mark of quality tho hahah. Loads of people like card I B dosent change the fact that her music is trash and the total antithesis of everything that makes music good.
No, Tom is playing great music here ! When a pianist or a reed player do a scale, everybody is fine with it but not when an electric guitar player does. I mean come on.. Scale and arpeggio can be played with passion and feel just like Tom is playing. He as an incredible fluidity that enable you to hear every note so you can hear the music he's doing. He's beyond the technique simple as that. But I get it that it might not everyone's cup of tea considering the huge emphasis on minimal blues/rock or indie and the quest to "good feel" "60-70 vintage authenticity" and "cool" in the guitar community.
Tom has always been about spectacular and technically superb shredding. Look at the description of his approach to music when the Dual Fusion pedal was designed for him. He was not interested in the "tasteful" or traditional aspects of playing Jazz or Fusion. There is a reason such an approach is called "shredding". It would go a long way towards really becoming a master of music if he gave more thought and attention to those deeper details IMO. Compare this performance to one done by heavyweights in the Jazz field for a bit of enlightenment.
What I learned in this "clinic" I suck far worse than I ever imagined. Absolutely amazing guitar work!

You're no alone!
Lol. Tom Quayle vids have the best comments. "I'm done" "Anyone want to buy my guitars" "I quit" "Why do I even bother"
*Guthrie Govan removes wig* “I am actually Tom Quayle.”
Tom Quayle then puts his hair back "hello Guthrie Govan here"
Tom is awesome, but Godthrie is Godthrie

He was improvising, you can ask the right guy beside of tom (martin miller), he always play a different improvisation in every song and every take.
Fantastic! I used to work for Chick and I’ve heard this tune hundreds of times live. That’s as good a solo as I ever heard.
Sounds great love your music! Thank you
These guys are so awesome.. love their playing style..big fan
Wow!!Amazing playing!!True master of the craft indeed!!!!
When a tear comes to your eye within seconds, you know you're in the presence of greatness.
This solo makes me laugh and shake my head many times from how ridiculous good this is . Tom quayle is his own league of guitar playing 👌🏻
5:12 gosh that legato line is so clean and so melodic
That guitar tone is so perfect
Amazing as usual
I mean really, what can you possibly say, I’m actually surprised that it is possible to be that damn good! That was truly amazing playing Tom Quayle.
His melody choices are Godlike!!!
The long awaited duo after Truth in Shredding era feat. Allan Holdsworth+Frank Gambale, and Cacophony era feat. Jason Becker+Marty Friedman. Tom Quayle+Martin Miller has successfully shaped the future of guitar scene. Good luck to both u masters.
Wow Tom has beautiful full rich distortion tone and he is a killer player
Now I know where Max Ostro has got his biggest influence from. :D
Yeah, my only thing is: if I want to listen to Tom Quayle, I'd listen to Tom Quayle ¯\_(°°)_/¯
Kids an absolute beast. Here from his flawless cover of this piece
Top player tom does great video on you tube about guitars makes it look easy 👌
Hi,tom You are so great^^ absolutely amazing:) fan from philippines
AMAZING!!!!!!
Amazing...

Tom is sick Guitar player ♥️Love each and every phrasing ♥️ True Legend.... Legato King 🙏😊😍
Quayle is really an absolute amazing guitarrist ! oh my god he can play ! :)
omg is vanity!!! Be careful!
He is really cool. Also checkout Brett Garsed. Most notable tunes "letters from home", "Breathe", "Fud fight", "Got the horn" andy many more ...
Goodness. Dang this guy is good. Just wow! TQ is just a monster!
toms amazing.
Wow, wow and wow !!!
so chill
Genius!! 👏👏👏🤘😎
God level!!
Its insane!
My favorite version of the song!
Dongkwan Kim i
Tom Quayle: I can play this perfectly..... With my eyes closed.
Fckin hell
god damn, someone practiced his scales
amazing performance
Oh my god that Martin's face when Tom starts to play the intro. So funny)))
Martin so arogant face hahaha
Martin’s probably like i’ve heard this a thousand times..
That part at 1:38 - 1:46 is amazing
Reminds me of some material from Greg Howe “Introspection”.
As a Brummie it is good to see Laney being used again, although I think they make them overseas now though.
PQP!! MONSTER !!!
Caralho, sou fã demais

Ken T Allan holdsworth is better
I'M PRETTY SURE HE MEANS IN THE WORLD TODAY
Maybe he means in the world tomorrow
Bret Garsed

Another World...
I wish these guys would make an album together. I would buy it in a heartbeat.
Max Orto brought me here !
I want that track
Tom is just to smart ;)
Muito foda !
What a sick intro...
Paco and al would be proud!
Why they didn't write it.
Where can i get this backingtrack?
DAYUM!

@@YaoEspirito no, but I will definitely check it out !
Max Ostro does a great cover of this.
5:10 insane Tom corea.
5:45 wtf lol
Guthrie govan tends to do those sus arpeggios as well. They're sick lol
didnt know that shit was even plausible
This is crazy...
Me: I'm going to practice harder than before
The tone he got out of his fibanare guitar was far superior. Great playing regardless.
Specially that HSS 😍
So What martin miller doin there?i thought it was collaboration?
Damn dude! You are ridiculous! VERY Good!! You could give Jimmy Herring a few lessons! ; )
Absolutely unbelievable improvisation, why isn't Tom a household name?

Yea it’s the same, they tune in fourths. So

Bow before Zod
well i was

ah be
I have been playing guitar for almost 30yrs and I am a jazz guy but IMO opinion the only difference between jazz and shred is tone this song here is jazz
2:40
Well...we know Tom likes Al DiMeola....That is, if you heard it... Not bad.
but this version more like allan holdsworth's spain
God I love this song. And Tom Quayle. Tom Quayle's take on this song is sex to my ears. All kinds of sex. But the good ones. Oh my.
And I suppose Martin is really Ralph Machio from crossroads 🤣🤣🤣
GOOD LORD HE IS GOING IN ON THAT SOLO. CHRIST 2:41
Play by tom speed finger
This is the hair metal version of a Chick classic
How is this hair metal lmao
@@abdelrahmankhaled8239 His tone sounds like the guy from Winger or White Lion

Damn this is pretty thiccccc
More gear will surely make me a better player.....
How do they compare (guitar technos) to any great musician. Not well.
dun let scaling control the melodic instead of you control the melodic ..thats what GG said. guitar solo should have a story line and punch line
excellent guitarists, now they only need to play in good bands

DO JAJA on serbian
Miller looks so bored and unhappy
Martin resorts to running scales while Tom grabs the spotlight.
Dictum1 that’s a very agressive response bro 😂 it’s true he does look miserable
I love how MM is sulking in th beginning because he can't play.
I love how you can play better than MM :)
@jasper426 he can't play = it's not his turn to play.
Technicians
What your saying is where your great technique would be a tool rather than a reason
Why did this Video show up when I searched ‘40 year old Virgins?’ /-:
😂😂😂

sorry, I think that this is an awful rendition and a terrible guitar+amp sound to boot :-(
