- www.premierguitar.com PG's Rebecca Dirks is on location at Steve Vai's Harmony Hut studio in Los Angeles. In this video, Steve shows you which of his signature Ibanez guitars he's taking out on tour and which made an appearance on his latest album, how he uses his signature Carvin Legacy Amps, and why the Axe-FX II has replaced most effects in his rig.

Steve's house is like a guitar center except that the guitars at Steve's house are taken care of
I hadn't been in a guitar center for so long, and I had the most culture shock experience (since I had been playing, practicing, and becoming better in addition to never going to a guitar center for years). It was a sea of middle schoolers playing Smoke on the Water, Enter Sandman, and many other rock standards. It made me laugh and smile with some nostalgia. It felt weird finally being on the other side of that now. But yeah, that said, the guitars for the most part were poorly taken care of, at least if they were in arms reach from the ground.
PSgamer666 and half the guitars are jems
...and the guy that works there actually knows something about the stuff on the wall.
Oh yeah?
They’re actually intonated and tuned
"the right hand is... busy doing other things when you're a teenager" We nerds of the internet are no strangers to that Steve.
To those who can't get laid of course lol.
Fire Marshall Bill nor can you child.
Fire Marshall Bill Bruh i speak for every single male out there, who spends there time looking at videos.
Fire Marshall Bill yeah well every single male out there uses their right hand for.... doing other things when you're a teenager.
Fire Marshall Bill Same difference
Steve Vai is a cool dude. Cracked me up saying shit like "it has a input jack and a whammy bar."
+Zack Scruggs 3:17 rofl
+Zack Scruggs I couldn't believe he said that once I heard it lol. It cracked me up though.
He's just as much fun live, he really gives the impression of just being a wonderful guy
+Zack Scruggs I laughed out loud at that line.
my fav... "I stared at the left hand longer... the right was busy doing other things as a teenager" bruh ahaha
I once met Steve at like fan meeting and I said that i love his music and if he could sign my guitar and he didn't answer, he just kept looking at me and not blinking for some time and then he signed her :D He is kind of not human, but in a very special way, you have to look into his eyes to see. Love this guy!
I wonder if he was checking you out to see if you just wanted the signed guitar for an auction
@@Hellseeker1 Man I was 16 at the time and what I brought was my beat up squier I've been using for the past 6 years. I don't think he thought about me selling it, I was just an intimidated kid. It felt more like he was looking directly into my soul. The squier ain't going nowhere since it's my first electric and since then also my Steve Vai signed guitar :)
"They wanted to Mix my blood with the Dip" Goddamn Ibanez is kinky af
Heavy Gauge....what? kinky? what a clown you are
Yeah, but that is f*cking cool.
This shit is hilarious ! I about fell off my chair when he made the comment about getting a song on the radio. I admire that type of honesty. The Yngwie impersonation was pretty damn funny too..
A true genius with a great sense of humour. Anybody who reads that as arrogant doesn't understand both him or the meaning of the word. He is always so giving of his time and answers the questions asked of him. Most celebrities when asked a specific question just talk about themselves, completely ignoring the question and the person hosting the interview.
I like the fact that they never use lapel microphones. I enjoy turning my volume up and down constantly.
Relax. Just let the sphincter open and all that crap will flow out of the correct orifice.
You obvuiously read that EXACT comment somewhere else before as i've read it before worded exactly a couple of times. But it's still funny.
I like watching her stretch her arms out and in!!!
It looks annoying for the interviewer aswell
for real
I used to think Steve Vai was so uptight and thought so highly of himself based on pretty much nothing except some live performances I saw. I was so wrong about this guy. The more I learn about him the more I admire him. I think he's one of the few famous guitarists that actually deserves all the stuff he has and praise he gets.
Exactly!
7:56 "I do use the sustainer, I started using it a lot about 10 years ago. I've pulled back, cause.. You don't wanna keep repeating yourself.. You don't wanna keep repeating yourself."
I don't know why I found that little joke so funny but I think it went over most people's heads 😂😂
"Because, you know. You don't want to keep repeating yourself. You don't want to keep repeating yourself."
10:27 I love how he went for the monkey grip and I wasn't there haha
Haha good eye
what strikes me here is how down to earth Steve Vai is. Someone like him that has done so much and yet seems human
He is human
@@Hotmaildotcomz Nah, he’s clearly an alien. You seen how long his fingers are?
@@Severe_Metalholicism clearly an alien. Joe Satch was letting the astute know... they used to go to the beach together, with their malibus... ☺️ → 🏄 👽
@@Severe_Metalholicism I shook his hand once. I have big hands but he has different level big hands. His thumb wrapped his own fingers
What a classy guy, pretty good interviewer too. I love insight like this into a musician's instrument cave.
I like it more when the artists show off their guitars. It means more to them and they can go deeper in details when they explain it rather than techs. Techs most likely know more about the actual technical aspects (rightfully so) but the artists really should show their own guitars.
So I'm glad Steve Vai showed his own collection.
He's just a plain good dude. It's amazing how his kind of "mystical" approach on his personality and ideas phisically transcribe to his stage presence, his clothes, his guitars and most importantly his playing. THAT'S what an unique player consists. Steve Vai is Steve Vai for a reason.
"maybe that guy could get his fuckin' music on the radio"
I love how Steve goes out of his way to explain stuff in great detail and Rebecca is such a sweet heart! Great video PG!!
6:23 like in a hundred years, if they get cloning down and if they can take the pieces of this blood and take it's DNA from it and clone me, and make another Steve Vai, maybe that guy can get his fuckin music on the radio. I JUST DIED.
I love how somebody like Steve Vai has a couple of $50,- practice amps and stock mini/traveller guitars just for fun!! Awesome to see that he does like the ocassional Marshall, Fender or Roland amp every now and then. You can tell by the way he talks he is very (brand)loyal to his endorsers.
I guess Steve stands in his bathroom every morning and talks to the mirror "Hey Dude..you are the best...GIMME FIVE"
haha, i can see him doing that.
Lol
*shrug* he's an italian virtuoso that's changed the landscape of rock guitar. He's probably doing pretty well at keeping calm, really. And, he goes on to say "You can't get that Hendrix sound cuz that was in his fingers.". Giving props is a sign that he knows his place. It's just at the top for good or bad in conversation. heh.
Right dude? What an out of touch egomaniac. . .
He's damn right!
Steve cracks me up with his crazy outfits, facial expressions, and dance moves.
He said exactly what I've felt my whole life. When I play I either find my zone or I don't but it's not something I can force to happen it's something I can't think and do it's a feeling from within and I find it at odd times but when I do it's mystical it's magical and I cherish those moments. Thanks Steve for sharing this. We are definitely toy collectors to a sense and all musicians are odd to an extent. You've Inspired me entire life I taught myself to play because of Passion and Warfare so I will always remain thankful for the inspiration to do that. Keep doing what you do And the radio comment you live in my radio always will
Look at all the Steve Vai haters on this page..... obviously very jealous of Steve's guitar playing abilities ... there are loads of gold nuggets in this video where Steve is willing to pass on his guitar knowledge. I found the video very insightful.
Rockerman pre I don't understand the "pre" part of your name. If you get that much from Steve Vai, you are already a true rockerman.
Rockerman pre Most people here don't even play, they just buy gear to look at and talk about.
Rockerman pre Or they're just joking around and you shouldnt be so sour over it :)
I think it's because of him making constant sexual inuendos to a girl half his age, comes across as creepy.
Lol, Rebecca got embarrassed when Vai said his right hand was busy doing other things. Lmao.
So Steve not only believes in tonewood, but also tonefabric?
And..?
+Dagger 323 It's all bullshit, man.
+BurroDeLasTinieblas if you say so…
Go compare a basswood Jem to an alder Jem.
Just because you don't have an ear doesn't mean that everyone else is wrong.
+Ricky Johnson Really not worth my time to debate this on TH-cam comments, but this has been scientifically proven over and over again. Tonewood doesn't make a difference to an amplified signal through non-microphonic pickups. Emperor's new clothes, pal. I actually don't give a shit what you believe.
One of my favorite Rig Rundowns ever. Ii am watching in 2022 and Steve Vai is still kicking and rocking better than ever.
I really like how he's so willing to share so much info about his ideas and gear. It's great to see he's still super enthusiastic 🤘🏼
steve vai is like a creepy uncle that is actually harmless
Your parents don't trust him,but they let you hang out with him.
That makes absolutely no sense, nor is it clever or funny. Let us know when you have something intelligent to say.
1970borntorun What did I do to deserve this!?!
I've met him, he is one of the oldest and most incredible souls I've ever had the fortune to be ushered into the prescence of. You know on Close Encounters of the Third Kind, there is that really tall, thin alien that emerges from the mothership? Well, mix that with the Dalai Lama and and a splash of Jimi and you've got Steve! :o)
I thought it was pretty funny, man. It's cool.
Prince Westerburg Yup. I got to meet him after a clinic, sat 8 feet from him for over an hour. He was whipping thru autographs after the clinic until he got to the item I'd made for him to sign. We talked for about a minute. He was pretty touched and put his hand on my shoulder and told me to keep at it. Not creepy at all. Nice guy.
Does anyone else find it kinda weird/freaky that at 7:05 the "Sea form Green" Guitar just suddenly appeared in his hands. (Personally I think this is solid proof that Steve Vai is actually god).
He takes the guitar off the stand at 4:11 and moves around with it in his right hand, while talking about the other guitars.
"She goes everywhere with me i actually sleep with her sometimes....she has both an input jack and a whammy bar" 😺😸😜
Bijay Poudel Best female sex organ euphemism I’ve heard.
Asexual
Grow up little disgusting boys! How pathetic.
steve bai
@@bldlightpainting What exactly is pathetic, in laughing at a joke? You sound like a 12 year old girl that's been allowed to wear makeup for the first time, that shows how grown up they are by calling others immature.
Wife: "Have you turned into Steve Vai yet?"
Steve: "Not yet - where's my Ibanez pick? If I've got the wrong pick I just can't play."
Such a great interview. Had me smiling the whole time. Thank u Steve Vai!
"Maybe THAT guy can get his fuckin music on the radio!" LMAOOO
Gold
Fantastic insight on Steve Vai's gear. It's a good thing the interviewer let him speak, he's a class act! A+
When Steve Vai say's "I had a lot of trouble" with anything related to guitar playing, I know there is hope for us all!
How could anyone hate on Steve Vai?
oldhamowls Because he's a little arrogant.
*****
He just tries to be cool and not look completely obsessed with his 263 guitars. If you look at other interviews, he is very humble about his fame.
Frank Rauen
Guitarists? Ever heard of Kanye West?
oldhamowls Because he thinks he's the best when we all know that Joe Satriani is the guy.
Non-guitar fanatics can listen to some of Joe Satriani's songs and have a lot of fun.
Vai's records are extremely boring and most probably aimed at those kids learning how to play the guitar who go like "Wow, that's incredible - how does he do that?" kind of thing - which has very little to do with music or musicality.
***** People often mistake confidence for arrogance, especially when they don't know any exceptionally talented people.
6:05 "Vai-ls" of Vai-blood? If you will.
Been in Vai's studio a few times and it's amazing!!! Doesn't hurt that he's an amazing guitarist as well.
[taps the guitar] [cocks ear like there's something to hear] "It's a unison." Spinal Tap moment there.
They are the same note at the same octave, however, which is the technical definition of unison
Shhh.....You hear the sustain?
-no
Well you would if it were playing.
😂😂😂😂😂
"Don't even look at it!"
Too funny! Thought the same thing.
Crank it up to 11
She does ask some great questions... I've seen her progress and she really does address the material as much as any dude fan could ever.....Bravo Premiere Guitar.....
Rebecca is the real deal. She can throw down knowledge about guitars, pedals, pick ups, etc. with the best of them.
I have to say, fair play to Rebecca! She had to interview one of the biggest names in rock guitar, a serious guitar hero for almost half an hour. That's a lot of pressure and I think she did a great job. P.s. Steve Vai... If you're reading this, can you add me to the guitar giveaway list pleeease?! :) that Ultrazone Axe.... Simply stunning! Great interview.
This show would be so much better if they miked up the participants rather than rely on the hand held mic. Yeah, it looks cool and 'journalisty' but it really gets in the way. That was a very pedantic point. In other points, Vai is in my top 3 and seeing his guitar cave is one of the coolest things I could possibly imagine so thank you Premier Guitar
Was literally thinking that.. Its hardly a deal breaker but gets sort of annoying, feel sorry for the interviewer more than anything else
+Justin Clayden Apparently no one has ever heard of a boom mic.
thumbs up for Rebecca not running away from this guy
he does have a valid point. radio doesn't play steve vai.
So great an so many levels. This is paradise on Earth. I loved the "This is Spinal Tap" reference. One of the funniest movies ever made, and a must-watch for any rock musician.
The greatest guitar player and the greatest guitar collection off all times! 👍
It's weird when he references to his guitars as 'she's'.
I mean think about it, he has over 200 "she's" in a shed behind his house, all hanged up to the wall of which he likes to finger and play with.
Explains his sex faces he makes when playing. :D
Martti Hänninen It could just be all the sexy guitars that he has.
Mega MountainMan Actually yeah that room is really hot and steamy; Oh the crazy things I'd love to do to those guitars.
lol.
Draconequus because it's "la guitarra", feminine in the majority of languages in which genders apply to all nouns
It seems like Steve Vai is a guitar player version of Charlie Sheen, minus the drugs and the HIV.
Vai is a better comedian than Sheen though.
Omar Bell Vai couldnt hold sheens jock strap.
@@JerryRiceBall Oh, please, he's a disgusting, washed up disgrace. Apart from some viral catch phrases during a phase of untreated mania, everything he's ever said or done has been written by someone else, with someone else the directing him exactly how to say it, and exactly what to do while he's saying it.
Lmao you have no idea but he and his wife are super active in the swinger community
Steve Vai is basically every high school music geek, but he just happened to have worked the hardest and was born with the most talent. He still has this kind of kiddish vibe about him, making outfits and whatnot. Seems like a dope guy
Amazing collection! Love the fretboard to body unison understanding, something to think about when getting serious about next guitar purchase, Thanks for the carpet grinding pick trip
Man, I want a room like that. Holy shit
I want HER in my room. haha
A lot of people are giving Vai shit for saying the Jem is the longest running and most successful signature guitar in history. I'm sure Vai like myself knows that the Les Paul is technically a signature series instrument. I don't think he's being arrogant or dishonest considering the fact that he has said on many occasions how much he loves and respects Les Paul for his innovations in the evolution of the electric guitar and sound recording. I don't know Vai's reasons for not mentioning the Les Paul but IMO the Paul is not a signature in the same sense of what a signature guitar is today. The Jem is exclusive to Steve Vai, other people play them but no other guitarist has a signature model that is a Jem. The Les Paul however, is a design that many guitarists have their own signature based on. Slash and Zakk Wylde among many others have their own models that are Les Paul's. The design of their instruments are typically the same as far as the specs of a Les Paul go. Their models may vary in pickups, hardware, woods, and electronics but the shape, style, scale length, ect, are exclusive to the Les Paul. A Paul has become a specific instrument like a strat. Like I said, the Jem is identified with one player while the Paul is identified with hundreds of players. Ibanez has many endorsees but aside from Vai none of them play a Jem. A Les Paul is more like an RG in the sense that many players build signatures based around that specific design. I know the Paul is a signature but its kind of a technicality at this point. Regardless, Vai doesn't deserve such hate for an innocent comment like that. As he has matured as a man and a musician he has routinely checked his ego at the door and always gives credit where its due. He's a great spokesman for the guitar community which is often filled with retards who love to measure dicks by claiming superior chops and musical excellence. I'm sometimes ashamed to be among that community. I have said many times you don't have to be great at guitar to be a great musician. Chops don't always translate to great music. I can play circles around some of my favorite musicians but I don't consider myself anywhere near their level of brilliance. Anyway, that is my opinion on the matter.
+Kris Ross - I had this argument with my friend, and we've come that the Les Paul isn't a signature guitar - it is THE guitar.
+Kris Ross He probably is being arrogant tbh, but, he's an excellent guitarist, and by all means a rockstar. If anyone has a right to be arrogant about something he helped create and a guitar that's made for him, it's Steve Vai. But factually, I would think it is the Les Paul, because it's a guitar he designed, and had his name put on, and it's a name that even people who have never touched a guitar know and respect
Correction, at this point, the Les Paul is a piece of junk with dodgy quality and craftsmanship. :(
The Les Paul guitar is not a signature series instrument. It just bears the name for marketing purposes. Les Paul's endorsement of Gibson only lasted from 1952 to 1961, after that Gibson just used the name and made what they wanted. The only reason that the series still bears the name "Les Paul" is because Gibson already has the trademark, and people know what the name means. The Jem signature guitar was also based on the design of the RG, which was in development the same year (1987). Either that or the RG was based on the Jem.
I think Steve is enthusiastic rather than arrogant. Amazing how he always seems to look so into whatever he is talking about and loves to share info. Reminds me a little of Rory Gallagher in that respect.
i couldn't take my eyes away from the interviewer the entire time.... she is gorgeous
That is how Satchel likes them
+Felipe CRP She is. She is. She is. Couldn't either, mate.
More importantly, she is a competent interviewer who doesn't get in the way.
Camera guy feels the same way. 25:17
Vai: these guitars are all very different.
Also vai: this one is jem and this one is a jem
Nice Guy, really down to Earth, That's why he is so successful. Great Studio.
I would've thought the Les Paul was the most successful and long running signature model of all time.
Ashley Mann 120 years or more?
Ashley Mann is the Les Paul an artist signature model?
Yes.
oh, I thought Les Paul was just the designer haha, I guess you're right 😂
Ashley Mann I think the distinction is that Les Paul created the guitar and owned the company whereas Vai is referring to a signature guitar created for an artist BY a manufacturer.
the most incredible thing about this guy with the guitars is that he has no ego and is very humble man...
Idk how someone can be so cocky yet so humble at once but steve is... AND I LOVE IT!
He's a confident musician. A lot of people misinterpret that.
Nice rack...of guitars
Really nice rack units.
Nice???
Wow. That’s a really big...room
i like how after every interview her arm falls limp because she just got done holding the mic up for half an hour
I've been a Steve Vai fan even since the first time I saw Crossroads. By far my favorite solo artist! That dual scene at the end is one of the best scenes in all of cinema.
Wow...he has a huge passion for his collection. Love it!
It has an input jack AND a Whammy!
Missing Rebecca...She really knew her stuff & asked questions which drew out good info from the artists.
She's cute. What happened to her?
She was definitely better than 90% of the interviewers on this channel.
Steve's the man. He becomes more so with the passing of time. He's close enough to my age for me to feel a certain affinity. I don't play what he plays, but I listen to him, almost exclusively.
I met Steve Vai one time... YOU OWE ME 18 YEARS OF CHILD SUPPORT STEVE!
so your "guitar gear" is basically a "guitar store"...lmao
IM IN THE ZONE
Hi, I'm a random smart ass on the internet who believes himself to be qualified of harshly judging (or really just being a complete ass to) Steve Vai, among other guitarists, and labeling them as terrible because I either don't like their playing or, most likely, can't play well like they do and am jealous. I also believe that, despite Gibson pretty much just using the name "Les Paul" to denote the design of a guitar, that the Les Paul is still a signature series. Also, my knowledge is superior to Steve Vai's.
And in case you didn't get it, I was being sarcastic. Let the stupidity ensue below in the replies. If there are any that is.
hi sarcastic random smart ass. it hurts when another smart ass actually backs up his comments with facts, don't it? sometimes find it hard to put someone down without making things up? (I totally love steve vai and have nothing but good things to say about his playing, and the jem is a great guitar). Does it make you feel hollow and empty inside when someone you don't like, (for no reason whatsoever) says something you dislike, and yet that person is correct? feel like you have to lash out without actually having a point at all? yes, I can imagine that would suck. maybe you need a teddy bear to hug or some apple pie and ice cream. it'll do wonders for your sarcastic, smart ass attitude I bet...
1. There was nothing to be offended by unless you were the person I was detailing.
2. Your comment contained not a single fact about anything that I mentioned. In fact, it contained solely harsh accusations and insults, which are often used when someone is angry because they don't want to admit being wrong about something. I don't fully understand your comment since it's lazily organized, but I'm assuming it was an ill one. Since most people that reply comments like the one I posted do so because they feel that the comment went directly against something they knew (or thought that they knew.)
Daggerpaw1
1. oh yes im pretty sure your comment was aimed at me.
2. each phrase was cleverly designed to poke fun at one of your incorrect and ill meaning comments, in an indirect, assumptive way. i actually had a lot of fun writing it, and still think its f@#$king funny! i cant help it if you dont see the connection.
mostly, though, im amazed at how many people got their undies up in a bunch over me pointing out one incorrect fact on the video. i even got people (you) commenting on it completely independently of the subject in question.
so lets wrap this all up, shall we? i dont like it when you call me a sarcastic smartass. you are not smart enough to know when someone is insulting you back. A lot of people on the internet like to argue about stuff without bothering to take 1 minute to go look up the relevent information, and Les Paul holds the honor of the longest running signature guitar, conservatively counted at 45 years. steve vai's model is a great guitar that has been in production since 1987.
rock on!
brainfarts
I lol'd :D
I love Steve Via,he's my hero,one day I'm gonna meet that guy!
This is one of my fave artist gear videos. They are both such nice people, she's is so good to look at and he's good to listen to.
it's almost like he lives in a guitar center, that would be awesome
Love Vai's dirty jokes.
That's because he's a pathetically immature disgusting little boy just like you son. GROW UP!
@@bldlightpainting ok chill old man...
@@bldlightpainting WTF is your problem? You are watching a video of someone who you apparently dont like, and you insult a comment he made? Do you know Vai? No, I doubt you do. So where do you draw your conclusion ,accusing him of being pathetic,immature and disgusting.? Maybe you need a hug dude? You are a friggin troll man.
@@bldlightpainting you are a cringe gentleman
Even though he is an ibanez player and artist, I saw two PRS and got so happy cause its great knowing that one of the worlds best guitarists uses guitars that are built less than 30 minutes away
“The right hand is busy doing other things when your a teenager”
Holy shit that killed me
Steve Vai also has a million cartons of Cigarettes so his guitars can smoke a cigarette after each song.
funny how when men talk to cute women we can't help but make dirty jokes
sure thats how you can tell whether they're into you or not
true!
I like to let the girl make the dirty joke. Then there’s no question she’s into you
i bet even if it wasn’t rebecca he’d make dirty jokes
vai would deffo make dirty jokes no matter who interviewed him, he always has tons of jokes and dirty thoughts, guys funny as shit
I learned the tapping the neck and body of a guitar to see how close the resonance was from Steve Vai and it actually makes finding a great guitar easier. It makes a huge difference on the evenness of volume and sustain from fret to fret
Such a wonderful optimist! Great collection. Really enjoyed this video.
she is so cute
***** who wouldn't
That is one sexy guitar indeed!
INAUD 43 well I am ass respectful as him
in how much scarcity does one need to be in in order to drool over a 5/10 on youtube?
INAUD 43 ass was used as a pun
Steve vai is truly one of the most successful men in human history 👏
Is he though? He can't get a hit on the radio, in his own words.
@@Aaron-zh4kj neither can you and your not a guitar god so look whos talkin
@@scuffyplayramranch5256 I never claimed I was one of the most successful men in human history, nor did I claim to be a guitar god. I was just saying, by his own admission, Steve Vai has not achieved a commonly understood mark of success in the world of music: getting a song on the radio. I'm a huge Vai fan, and I think he is objectively both technically and creatively at the top of guitar players and musicians around the world. I'm just saying, by a specific common standard of success by the music world at large, Vai is not as successful as he could be, or I dare say, should be . His ability and creating is overshadowed by incredibly mediocre talent that is shoved down our throats by the big record labels. We're on the same page, friend. No need to be up in arms.
No you’re thinking of Phil Collins
How can you hate this guy? He’s a chill dude with a good sense of humor! Also, you can’t say he has no feeling, because at one point he was frank zappa’s right hand man!
I come back to this video at least once every year to have a good time
Say Steve. Say ya give lots of the guitars away? Man I would love to have the Jem behind you in the first section of this video!!!!!! You are the best!!!!!!!!!!1 Looking forwarded to hearing from you friend!!!!!!
steve vai is the coolest person ever
Apparently, Steve Vai has redefined cool, brother Matthew. And it's about time.
I wish I could afford one of your Jem guitars. They look and sound so amazing. And so do you, sir!
Well done Rebecca. great job keepin this throwback on point.
13:45. "This is the Stonehenge version"... Lol. Nod to spinal tap.. Such a witty humor.. Lol
Rob all he needs is amps that go to 11 ! lol
Steve making inappropriate jokes.😂😂😂
He was wanting to hit that!!!
"these are some of the fun, creative things you can do when you are Steve Vai!!
this is by far the best episode
it's got this horn you know "touches the horn" lol
This guy hasn't been the same< since Ralph Macchio
took him to the woodshed
I love the comment someone made about that movie: he didn't know who did the better acting job - Ralph pretending he could really play, or Steve pretending he couldn't!
Such an inspiration, never change Steve. HOLY SHIT that cabinet or pedals
I sure wouldn't criticize Steve's facial expressions when he plays (as he commented here) bc its awesome to see him really get so passionate when playing. I don't get how sum of you say he's cocky or any description in that aspect. you obviously don't get his character & personality or music period. He's giving detailed descriptions of what any true fan or musician has wondered about much of his gear or the stories behind the guitars some of us has seen & loved 20+ years! Being so uniquely talented ppl will always try to find negative but i guess shredding a guitar & being him makes it worth it lol. my husband & I both think you are awesome!!!
6:10 "VAILES of Vai blood" Get it?
I'd give my first-born to just be in this room for like 15 seconds.
william johnson I gave mine away for hanging with John 5
Sweet. You know Rigo, I've never really listened to John 5, but I know he's all over the guitar magazines. What style does he play?
Rigo es Amor good choice, i would too
Watching this Video and watching Steve just look at his guitar gives me a good Vibe about Vai.
Steve Vai is a genius!! Rebecca Dirks is also a force of nature!!!
What a Great Time too be alive!!!
