Folks…it just doesn’t get much better than this. Such incredible musicality and virtuosity but never feels “shreddy”. I didn’t see any “I am going to shoehorn this lick here cause it’s a TECHNICAL feat”. Everything was in support of the melody and so frickin tasteful. That is not to say this guy doesn’t have technique. Good Lord does he ever. But, it is used to support what he plays, not define it. I am embarrassed at the low-key applause at the end. I would have been screaming like mad in support. This kid is an evolution.
I hope Jeff knew of Matteo before his passing. I'm sure he would be so proud and thrilled to see someone expanding his finger picking style to even higher levels. Without a doubt Matteo is one of the best ever...

@@milesstoned5139 it is clear you are a hillbilly who pretends he “knows” but you don’t know , lets see how his “carrer” ( it is career by the way fff ing hillbilly 😂 😂 ) will compare to Beck’s
This guy is the best electric player in the world . Not just technique but depth of ideas his lines his harmonic maturity unique style an inspiration a beautiful thing the universe is linked with him He dove deep worked hard had the genetics and open mind soul commitment to being the best he could be and he did it .
Is there a “best” though? That always seems limiting. Matteo is a fantastic player along with many others. All are bringing fresh techniques and ideas and taking the art of guitar forward. That’s exciting. Jeff would be pleased.
Best guitarist in the world. Have heard thousends of them but nothing come close to this. Not only does he has an amazing technique but his chose of notes, timing and phrasing showes that this young guy has a musical gift that is extremly rare
He's unbelievable and undeniable. and to @gazza1252 nailed it. If you like this, Guthrie Govan is even next level...all that plus more diversity. enjoy...
@@marcseal Matter of taste I guess! I might be even more impressed by the speed and variation (diversity if you like) of Guthrie, but Mancuso has a somehwat more melancholic way of melody making, which I prefer. And the way he plucks the strings is mesmerizing! Both are super guitarists. Hope they play together someday!
@@erikcouvret yeah, I didn’t wanna make it a competition at all, I just mean Guthrie has blown my mind more than any electric guitar player I’ve ever seen or talk to you. This kid is incredibly inspiring and beautiful playing. I actually prefer melodic, but I’ve also heard Guthrie do some insanely melodic stuff as he understands the harmony so much as well. Not a competition, they’re both freaking unbelievable. I just know some people are not here to Guthrie, and just trying to throw it out there.
It's ever difficult to say "The best". There are many incredible historic solos, in various genres, by various artists. Surely, this is one of the best solos by MM, that's my favorite guitarist today
Everyone needs to calm down. Matteo, Guthrie and the like have achieved the highest level of technique that not everyone can relate to just like many can't relate to the ethereal power of Mississippi Fred McDowell. It's all about personal preference which is pointless to judge and can't be measured objectively. Then there's pop music, that arguably has largest audience based on popularity. Matteo's version of Stevie's "Cause we've ended up as lovers" is beyond words and a brilliant tribute.
Max Ostro makes everyone else look like they’re working really hard.. Have yet to see a smoother operator . Max Only 19 years old .. Matteo is 26 . 7 years is long time in guitar playing terms .
@@nickguitarsweden3215 You made me curious and I watched the latest of Max Ostro's videos, and come one, he is neither particularly clean neither particularly tasteful or musical compared to Matteo. I wish him all the best of course, he has some remarkable skills but let's be honest there is no game between the two. Matteo 7 years ago was much more mature and in terms of cleanness, taste, harmony and rhythm and he showed that he could play with a band.
@@Aniblasfemus Well you’re probably right :) But the styles are very different and Max doesn’t have that many videos available online , so maybe there’s more to him than we can see on here ? Of course I agree Matteo is a world class phenomenal player :)
He plays them all against the wall, no matter who comes there. I've never heard anything like it! It's not a high flyer. He practiced hard to be the best! And then, despite the insane speed, he still has a harmony in his playing style that is breathtaking given the speed. There is no one equal to him, you can look for whomever you want. nobody will find He can do both classical and jazz. Who can?
Agree. No one, today, have Matteo Mancuso skills imo. First his unique right hand technique. His eclettism, his phrasing taste and melodic elegance. He plays EVERY genre of music with a superior Class. I don't want to say he is the best. Music is not a competition. But he is inspiring, emotional, a great musician.
@@Chris-TMH I don't agree. Govan imo hasn't same technique, same melodic taste, same eclettism, same musical sensitivity and knowledge. GG is no doubts a great guitarist. But he never got me emotions and goosebumps like MM. They are deeply different musicians. To invent a NEW and UNIQUE technique, about the instrument MOST played in the world, is something special. Really stunning. Nothing of really new in GG's playing.
@@consulentecomunicazionestr3072 everyone's got their opinion but I still disagree. GG is just as good if not better and his technique is unique because he can play pretty much anything off the top of his head, a lot of guitar players can't do that on the spot. You should watch him playing with Joe satriani and Steve Vai, all three of them can shred just like this guitar player, and all three have great technique and a lot of Melody.
Matteo is a musical genius he took his classical finger picking skills along with adapting the finger picking of the bass . Matteo style is very efficient. Even Rick Beato was impressed with his style but he also understood how Matteo got his unique style. Matteo is making music on his own terms.
i think this guy might be the best player man. he has the right amount of clean, samurai cutting technique, with excellent feel, tone, does not over play, plays just enough technical shit to wow you, excellent phrasing, slow + fast, light and dark, EXACT RIGHT AMOUNT OF BOOMER BENDS, just all around, excellent player. he really, makes me want to sell my guitar. this is the third time ive come back to watch this for inspiration. he is also a really humble guy. this dude motivates me to want to get better man.
I've been involved with Jazz Rock Fusion guitar since the late 70s and this solo is the best I've ever heard, in its musicality, technique and virtuosity. It was an utterly flawless live performance. Bravo Matteo!
Ok! This is one of those occasions you don't believe either your eyes or your ears and you don't know what to say... Ok... words appear in my brain... assuming I have one! I just realised I've held my breath for three minutes straight... aliens do exist... this guy is from another planet! I will see him alive on July 19, 2024... thanks in advance Matteo for what I am sure is going to be a life-changing evening in my hometown, which basically means in the middle of nowhere, and thanks for sharing your sheer talent with human beings like me!
I dont know about this solo invoking the ghost of Jeff Beck (Godspeed, Jeff!) but it certainly sounds like one of the nicest Holdsworth style cops ive heard in a long time. What a guitarists's guitarist.

That's probably one of the most amazing guitar improvisation I've ever seen, its has everything, this guy is another level, only Guthrie G had gone that high til Mateo came up.
You can Ay what t a out Matteo Mancuso but Here's the facts. He has class, very respectful dedicated dedícate with alot3of concentration to play like that but various morons think he's a novelty. Think of the concentration level of his instrument and also playing without a pick which i no easy task In the genre of music and I know Jeff Beck would be proud.!!Thank You for all you do!!
I grew up adoring John Petrucci, Guthrie Govan, Jimi Hendrix, Eddie Van Halen, Stevie Vai, Tosin Abasi….. Man this live solo puts you right up there with them. Incredible!!!! Absolutely fabulous. Jeeezus. WITHOUT A PICK!!! Subscribed for life…❤
@@margix1172 Just no. First of all. Guthrie is no shredder, but one of the greatest rock guitarists of all time. its not only my opinion. Take a look what Rick Beato says to this topic.

I think the reason is that there is an overflow of great guitar players on line that somehow make virtuosity a trivial aspect….Matteo Asato is probably the leading exponent of such case in point…. Eventually the most important thing is wether the player is listenable or not…. Repeating licks for the sake of showing virtuosity eventually gets boring
@@napomania eventually this is exactly what music is all about…. If it’s great then techniques shouldn’t be the main focus…. Seems like it’s an attempt to impress more than to play with real conviction
@@sjuozhunki I agree with your grandfather, but I also (to 100%) agree with the genius Mike Oldfield who said something like: "It´s better to play one note and really mean it than play thousands."
Too many people will say “it’s too technical” “the music is lost” “there’s no soul” “nothing will be as good as it used to be” What I don’t understand is the need to mention one’s lack of interest to counteract what they perceive as “too much hype” because of differing opinions and taste in something as subjective as music. This was absolutely beautiful!
I first saw film of Matteo with his talented trio Snips. This kid is a freakin' MONSTER on the guitar. Mr. Beck would be honored by this performance, and would love that Matteo plays pick-less 😁
Every time I listen to him I am dazzled by his great talent, his great technique and certainly by the emotions he manages to convey. This tribute to Jeff Beck is amazing.
@@longlivefreedom9853lol what are you on about? He literally just re invented guitar. Watch what bonnamasa, Johnson and vai say about him. This is one of the greatest solos I’ve ever seen in my life
After one minute I am fed up, but I can listen to Mark Knopfler for hours. Whats the difference between them, well this guy plays a lot of notes that aren´t that interesting. Mike Oldfield: "It´s better to play one note and really mean it then millions of notes."
@@michaelwirth6843if you think this about MM, excuse me, but tu you dont have any musical sensitivity. MM Is exactly the opposite of a only tecnical guitarist. You can listen the feel, the passion, the emotions, and he transito there ti you. To play with many notes Is his own style, but he plays with tons of heart and soul. And I am a big fan of knopfler
This guy is everything I like in a guitar player. Fast and technical, but musical. I'm a jazz saxophone player, so I love the fact that he incorporated jazz lines into his playing, especially in non jazz and blues songs. He plays every single musical style that I enjoy listening to and can fuse them into any genre that he plays in. A true musical virtuoso. I look forward to following his journey.
Ever since I first heard Matteo play I have been astounded by his technical and artistic excellence. I started thinking the only thing lacking was the ability to get all those sounds and tones w/o using all those little boxes on the Pedalboard. Jeff Beck seemed to be able to do that better than anyone else I have ever seen. I hope that Matteo moves in that direction. That would be the cherry on top of all the amazing technique, creativity, and musicianship he already has
Matteo won't do that because you can't use tone and volume knobs while you play 5 fingers picking which is his "thing". He doesn't renders emotion by digging each note like Jeff did but has his own manner, far from vain shredding but playing fast lyrical sweeps. Just another approach of musicality. When you choose to sculpt each note, you play slow and Jeff was the absolute master of that since the Yardbirds, killing everybody with a single note or just a few. Matteo's creativity and technique are more jazz oriented and "talkative". Sorry for my ugly english :-)
He is fast, precise, melodic with a beautiful tone.., and still.., he is just another one in a row compared to to the uniqueness’s of Jeff beck. There will never be another one.., we were just blessed to live in his time.
I can't believe I have never heard of Matteo before, he's a guitar genius! I am also hearing Allan Holdsworth vibes in his playing, (another, alas, late genius).
The stunning quality of his articulation is a constant wonder. Every note has its own voice; nothing ever gets blurry and undefined. He's as good as there's ever been.
Hard to believe this guy only has 169 subscribers. Absolutely amazing. I’m sure that will change very soon. Oops, I just realized the guy playing isn’t the guy who is running this TH-cam channel. Thanks for turning me onto this guy, though. I’ll check him out.
*Matteo has an awesome talent for playing the guitar, an a humble personality to go with it. Been following him since he was 16 an even then I was impressed by his playing especially how he uses his fingers instead of a pick.*
È impressionante. Riesce a metterci anche anima e questo lo rende diverso da un semplice virtuoso. Penso che in questo migliorerà ancora. Ha ragione Steve Vai a dire che Mancuso porta lo strumento a un nuovo livello. Viva l’Italia!
Immagino il grande JEFF lassù seduto in poltrona fiero di essere stato di ispirazione a generazioni intere, grazie Jeff grazie Matteo per le emozioni che ci fate vivere.
In molti non capiscono. Leggo commenti che parlano di fredda esibizione, solo tecnica etc. Ma siete sordi? SOLO TECNICA? Qui c'è cuore, anima, sensibilità e enorme passione e cultura musicale
Sick man.... so good! This isn't finger gymnastics... this is tone and soul..... sweet playing dude! One thing to do this on a recorded video, but to do it live.. wow
Not just technique harmonic maturity creative lines fresh approach intervallic tension inside outside jaco like light-years ahead ......... beautiful thing this guy is deep ....the best
È incredibile che ci siano quasi esclusivamente commenti stranieri! Abbiamo un fenomeno e in questa italietta provinciale e retrograda non lo conosce nessuno!!!
Ma no, è famosissimo in Italia tra gli appassionati. I "commenti stranieri" provengono da decine di altri stati, ovvero miliardi di potenziali visualizzatori che commentano in lingua inglese; è ovvia la sproporzione

@@user-jq4xb5qp5s I get what you are saying. Fair point
Processing takes time today
Otherwordly good. Unbelievable. A genius.
Eccezionale!…e Manc’uso plettro!👏👏👏👏
😂
First you listen, and you gasp.
Then you watch, and your heart stops for 3 mins.
Hands down some of the best I’ve seen, EVER.
Hail to the new King🤘🏻
Because you've competence and sensitivity in music
Nope, first you listen and gasp, then you find the whole thing boring as hell because and endless stream of uninteresting notes are ... uninteresting.
@@michaelwirth6843 My Grandfather once said "If we all loved the same thing EVERYONE would be after Grandma"
@@sjuozhunki I agree with your grandfather, but I also (to 100%) agree with the genius Mike Oldfield who said something like: "It´s better to play one note and really mean it than play thousands."
@@michaelwirth6843 BB King showed that to Jeff Beck once.
Fenomeno assoluto.numero 1 al mondo
Finalmente qualcuno che lo dice
Too many people will say “it’s too technical” “the music is lost” “there’s no soul” “nothing will be as good as it used to be”
What I don’t understand is the need to mention one’s lack of interest to counteract what they perceive as “too much hype” because of differing opinions and taste in something as subjective as music.
This was absolutely beautiful!
I was getting some Shawn lane vibes with the tone and ultra fast pentatonics. He really is a magnificent player and love his finger style approach.
Shawn and Allan melted ;-)
Finally a super talent who manages to keep in mind the guitar is actually a musical instrument.
stunning
He is amazing🎸💯
Please come to America and tour
Out of this World. Absolutely incredible. So much feel and virtuosity. Jeff was listening, I'm sure.
I first saw film of Matteo with his talented trio Snips. This kid is a freakin' MONSTER on the guitar. Mr. Beck would be honored by this performance, and would love that Matteo plays pick-less 😁
Watching Matteo play is mesmerizing. His right-hand technique is other worldly.
Тот гитарист, которому я хлопаю сидя за компьютером!) Маттео , из России с любовью!
Just when you think you about heard it all, Welcome Matteo you are pure delight to listen to, just sorry it took me this long to discover you.
Next next level!!!! 🤩
Impostazione, gusto, suono , tecnica, orecchio ... Perfetto. Mischia frasi Jazz,con blues ,con sfumature classiche . Straordinario
si però aiutatelo a vestirsi ! almeno che non sia sponsor ufficilae dell'adidas
@@fernandovezzani7952Ma che vuoi che gliene frega del vestito. Ci sono persone molto semplice. Non è un rapper. È un musicista
Every time I listen to him I am dazzled by his great talent, his great technique and certainly by the emotions he manages to convey. This tribute to Jeff Beck is amazing.
I thought I'd seen them all but this guy! Staggering...
There is just no one like Mancuso, past and present. This is a whole brand new level of virtuosic playing. What a joy to watch and listen!
He's already legendary!
Joshua Meader from Australia is another young phenomenal player
Holdsworth.
Tim Hensen
@@longlivefreedom9853lol what are you on about? He literally just re invented guitar. Watch what bonnamasa, Johnson and vai say about him. This is one of the greatest solos I’ve ever seen in my life
A beautiful performance and such an awesome instrument, love the Yamaha guitar.
Incredibly clean and articulate without any show off. Tons of melodic ideas by the minute. Wow.
This guy is amazing… speed, feel, phrasing impeccable, technique off the charts
After one minute I am fed up, but I can listen to Mark Knopfler for hours. Whats the difference between them, well this guy plays a lot of notes that aren´t that interesting. Mike Oldfield: "It´s better to play one note and really mean it then millions of notes."
@@michaelwirth6843if you think this about MM, excuse me, but tu you dont have any musical sensitivity. MM Is exactly the opposite of a only tecnical guitarist. You can listen the feel, the passion, the emotions, and he transito there ti you. To play with many notes Is his own style, but he plays with tons of heart and soul. And I am a big fan of knopfler
His right hand (picking) technique is surely the best ever, to play that cleanly and precisely using fingerstyle on electric guitar, unprecedented
It is absolutely insane.
Yes, it's such a unique technique. Never seen anything quite like it. Incredible.
never seen anything like that, fucking insane
Wow. Classical fingerstyle killing it in a electric prog shred context. Absolutely stunning chops.
This guy made me rethink fingerstyle on electric. :D
A friend turned me onto the amazing player. So grateful
music flows throught him. natural talent. joy to listen
Another example of why guitar is arguably the most versatile innovative musical instrument made.
Unreal talent. Now I want to hear his solo album.
This guy is everything I like in a guitar player. Fast and technical, but musical. I'm a jazz saxophone player, so I love the fact that he incorporated jazz lines into his playing, especially in non jazz and blues songs.
He plays every single musical style that I enjoy listening to and can fuse them into any genre that he plays in. A true musical virtuoso. I look forward to following his journey.
An insane way to play the guitar. Mateo is awesome!!
Matteo Mancuso is the premier guitarist in the world today and tomorrow. Along with Max Ostro . The young gunz are here and are the Top today !
They say I have a way with words but this kid always leaves me speechless.
thank you Jeff and Matteo...beautiful.
Ever since I first heard Matteo play I have been astounded by his technical and artistic excellence. I started thinking the only thing lacking was the ability to get all those sounds and tones w/o using all those little boxes on the Pedalboard. Jeff Beck seemed to be able to do that better than anyone else I have ever seen. I hope that Matteo moves in that direction. That would be the cherry on top of all the amazing technique, creativity, and musicianship he already has
Matteo won't do that because you can't use tone and volume knobs while you play 5 fingers picking which is his "thing". He doesn't renders emotion by digging each note like Jeff did but has his own manner, far from vain shredding but playing fast lyrical sweeps. Just another approach of musicality. When you choose to sculpt each note, you play slow and Jeff was the absolute master of that since the Yardbirds, killing everybody with a single note or just a few. Matteo's creativity and technique are more jazz oriented and "talkative". Sorry for my ugly english :-)
He is fast, precise, melodic with a beautiful tone.., and still.., he is just another one in a row compared to to the uniqueness’s of Jeff beck.
There will never be another one.., we were just blessed to live in his time.
I can't believe I have never heard of Matteo before, he's a guitar genius! I am also hearing Allan Holdsworth vibes in his playing, (another, alas, late genius).
The stunning quality of his articulation is a constant wonder. Every note has its own voice; nothing ever gets blurry and undefined. He's as good as there's ever been.
Perfect. And WHAT notes he play! A real artist.
Grazie Matteo for your amazing performance.... 👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏
A superior mind. Heart, soul, passion, taste, enormous musical culture and knowledge. And much more. Born one in 100 years.
So many wonderful, great and young guitarists, today. And the winner is : MATTEO MANCUSO ! ❤
No doubts
I've been playing guitar for years. I wish I could do what this young man does. Excellent!
Man, you play soooo great, Jeff would have loved it! Thx
Jeff would be honored and proud!
He is what most of us will never be.
Simple truth
Jaysus, Matteo is one serious off the scale talent, and such a unique approach. He's so much more musical than many #shredheads before him. 🤘🏻
His right hand is doing stuff 💥
Hard to believe this guy only has 169 subscribers. Absolutely amazing. I’m sure that will change very soon.
Oops, I just realized the guy playing isn’t the guy who is running this TH-cam channel. Thanks for turning me onto this guy, though. I’ll check him out.
*Matteo has an awesome talent for playing the guitar, an a humble personality to go with it. Been following him since he was 16 an even then I was impressed by his playing especially how he uses his fingers instead of a pick.*
È impressionante. Riesce a metterci anche anima e questo lo rende diverso da un semplice virtuoso. Penso che in questo migliorerà ancora. Ha ragione Steve Vai a dire che Mancuso porta lo strumento a un nuovo livello. Viva l’Italia!
Pienamente d'accordo
L'impostazione della chitarra classica suonata divinamente su chitarra elettrica. Semplicemente un grande.
Con linguaggio espressivo, bagaglio tecnico e cultura musicale enormemente superiore alla sola musica classica
Has anyone seen my jaw?? It fell on the ground and I lost it....
Immagino il grande JEFF lassù seduto in poltrona fiero di essere stato di ispirazione a generazioni intere, grazie Jeff grazie Matteo per le emozioni che ci fate vivere.
In molti non capiscono. Leggo commenti che parlano di fredda esibizione, solo tecnica etc. Ma siete sordi? SOLO TECNICA? Qui c'è cuore, anima, sensibilità e enorme passione e cultura musicale
seduto su una nuvole che si beve il caffe' lavazza e gli angioletti? Ma bastaaaaaaa
@@SuperProvvidenza è una metafora
Uno dei migliori chitarristi del mondo e, forse, di sempre.
Di sicuro la sua impronta rimarrà per sempre. Go Italy! 🇮🇹💪
Condivido al 100%
It's fantastic technique and feel! No pick for guitar! Just fingers!
Sick man.... so good! This isn't finger gymnastics... this is tone and soul..... sweet playing dude! One thing to do this on a recorded video, but to do it live.. wow
You are correct, at last! Some comments are envy, or incompetent
That is the best guitar player in the world, hands down.
Yikes! Amazing!
He's a modern paganini. Italy has always produced incredible musicians
Good Lord, infreakinsane playing! 💯🔥🎸
Not just technique harmonic maturity creative lines fresh approach intervallic tension inside outside jaco like light-years ahead ......... beautiful thing this guy is deep ....the best
At last a very correct comment!
WOW Matteo how you flow from one style to another is amazing absolutely love it
He mixed 5/6 different guitar styles brilliantly
Awesome!!!!!!
È incredibile che ci siano quasi esclusivamente commenti stranieri!
Abbiamo un fenomeno e in questa italietta provinciale e retrograda non lo conosce nessuno!!!
Ma no, è famosissimo in Italia tra gli appassionati.
I "commenti stranieri" provengono da decine di altri stati, ovvero miliardi di potenziali visualizzatori che commentano in lingua inglese; è ovvia la sproporzione
Questo ragazzo è a livelli pazzesci per tecnica, fraseggio , idee e suona sempre col cuore veramente un grande artista .....
Out of this world!!! So dope, man........
Inizio la giornata sulle note di Matteo e mi rendo conto del sacro e del profano.... grazie Matteo!
