Max is a one in a millennium player. Meaning, I believe he is one in 5 billion of a player …truly is. The world has never, ever seen what Max is doing on the guitar. Period. Max is not playing frets, he is iceskating on them. Max is not playing scales he is digging out, Turns, come around, corner fillers, middle note runs and many, many other things previously, unseen, nor heard on the guitar. One could write a whole thesis on what he’s doing. Max is the max!
In my humble opinion, you exalted him too much. Max Ostro is very good at legato but nothing more. I didn't feel any emotion transmitted. Just an ordinary guitar player very good at legato and fluidity but very similar to Tom Quayle albeit at a lower level than Tom..
@@colossodirodi4340 couldn't disagree more with you
There's a ton of feeling there and he's capable of absolutely shredding but he chooses really tasty phrases instead of just a billion notes.
@@colossodirodi4340 maybe you should post a video of your playing so we can see what extraordinary is. 🤣
@@colossodirodi4340 he's frikin 18!
@@colossodirodi4340 If you didn't feel anything at 2:49 then you're dead inside. He's the real deal and light-years ahead of Quayle.
Young fingers with old chops versatility and sound. A nice gift to hear at the end of the day Jeff.
The phrasing and taste is unrivalled as far as I'm concerned !
Yeaah, this 19yo Max is absolutely genius. I expect what will he play 10 years later.
The quick movements you mention is him switching pickups, tapping a harmonic and retrieving his pick from between his fingers (following a hybrid fingerpicking section) simultaneously. Crazy sleight of hand.
I absolutely love how he uses a pick.
Say hello to most talented guitar player ever! Yes, there are of course all the Guthrie Govans and Tim Hensons and so on, but hey, he is way younger!
Possibly the best around right now. This guy’s playing is simply amazing
That bored look on his face cracks me up. It's as if he's seeing all the notes in his mind . I would love to see him play with some of our big guns like Paul Gilbert or Steve Vai .
I agree. I've watched and listened for years. he's mesmerizing...
I would recommend you discover the delights of Matteo Mancuso.
@@jamesglandon3737 … That guy’s picking is insane.
он гений, так как сам аранжирует. И прекрасный сценический образ.
That kid is simply amazing. He's at a level that's very rare to see. Love it. And looking carefully at his right hand, he did indeed flip the pickup selector switch on a few occassions.
I would recommend you discover the delights of Matteo Mancuso.
Holy...😳!
This was mind bending. It looked like the right hand had showed up to the wrong party. What a talent!
Have a great weekend, Jeff 🤗✨
Hahahaha you crack me up Gitte!
I would say Max is one of the top 5 players in the world right now.....he is on another level.
@@Midnightmidway Who is better....who is as technically skilled as Max? Name them....I am expecting the usual names. Ynwie Malmsteen, Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, John Petrucci, Guthrie Govan, Eric Johnson.
@@Midnightmidway I am not very young....I am probably older than you.
@@Midnightmidway I would rather listen to Max, than any of those players you mentioned. Except for Gary Moore....I love Gary's playing.
Some people se competition in everything. GET OVER YOUR FATHER. come back down to earth.
God loves us all😢
I wish Max would put out a whole album
Viva Max Ostro...!!🎉🎉🎉♥️
He is my actual favorite guitarist. A slap in my face each time I hear his perfect playing ability. Je suis écoeuré mais c'est troooooop bon putain !!! 😅
This is something special . Head and shoulders above the pack
First time I saw him was when he was playing an acoustic and electric up in his apartment with a metal chimney in the middle of it. I Knew then he was destined for greatness.
Thx for the reaction!
I watch Max's Promenade video at least once a week, I find his playing mesmerising! I hope he goes on to achieve great things.
AMAZING INVESTMENT and benefit to mankind as far as true quality music, and crafmanship as a musician.
Hey Jeff :) Glad you checked out Max, he is quite something.
He's absolutely amazing!
I would recommend you discover the delights of Matteo Mancuso.
He's a beast!
Pure genius. So pleasant to hear.
kieselsolocontest is unrivaled... believe me i have heard all the kids on youtube... Max is a master, been following him since he posted his first clip... went to my guitar and cut my strings! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
😂🤣😂👏👏👏
He is on the spot with the melodic changes, that makes the colour of the piece change. Gives it a kind of logic in the melody. But this is amazing...so fluently effortlesly...
Precision on the highest top, never heard something like that. Only 18 years old Maxie! 🤩
I would highly recommend people go find his interviews/questions and you find that people ask him things like " what shows are you watching " or " what are your favorite movies " or " do you do anything else other than guitar as a hobby? " and you will realize that Max lives, breaths music and his guitar, he doesn't make time for anything other than his guitar, he deserves to be where he his, he definitely deserves his own signature model, and whom ever he chooses, people will flock to him and his guitar.
I would recommend Stratele to review Matteo Mancuso, he is also within the same vein of Max Ostro, Imagine a dual or collaboration with both of them would legit break the internet and guitar community.
I love his expression like he’s really board and this is all way too easy. Just awesome.
😆
What I love with the develpment of Shredding over the years/decades is, that today a standard is reached, where it´s embedded in melodic concepts and it breathes. You don´t have to listen to a deafening load of notes but to a flow with distinct articulation.
The first time I heard such a playstyle was Shawn Lane with Jonas Hellborg and Jeff Sipe. Pure beauty and... yes, empathy and love in his constant flows of conscious. Max here reminds me of that. He is navigating so effortlessly through the chords/keys like it is his natural form of expression - no need to add words (loving the backing track too!).
btw... he doesn´t have a whammy bar and creates the effect only with the tone controllers. Are they modified to bending notes? Just curious.
Outstanding comment, Matt!!! Yes dead right!
Check out his 2019 Kiesel contest submission. Probably the best solo I've ever heard.
Yup! Next level for sure! And it's actually got soul, not just whacking off!
Yes
yup... master piece, best entrance i have ever seen in my life! impossible!!! 😆🤘
I prefer his JTC fusion collab solo for melodic reasons, but that 2019 Kiesel solo is by far more innovative and technically demanding. The kid is simply incredible.
The 2019 solo: th-cam.com/video/nb_Uj47N7jc/w-d-xo.html
Quite an impressive talent. Like him a lot.
So great that he has a straight face and doesn't pretend that he is in agony, and pulling a fake face. He's genius, all the way!!
I have great admiration for this classy young musician who stuns me with his mad maniacal skills and his interpretations. I also have great admiration for guitarists who do make their guitar sing from the heart and the guts and it shows on their faces and in the way they move their bodies and their guitars as if they are in sync - as one. Different strokes for different folks I feel.
The guitar is my instrument of joy and I find joy in every style and genre.❤
I think he is a good guitar player.
heard many many players, this example is oustanding, has feel and funk and ideas and tone!
👍👍 We both watched his complex techniques he was using with both hands. I did not see him palm the bridge, and I had to play back a few spots to see just what he was adjusting. As anyone who in at peace with his/her instrument, he makes it look seamless and easy, with fluidity. I have said this on many occasions on your channel, This is our next Generation doing things a bit unorthodox, as we old timers did it. Wow.
Love the new blood! :)
His fingers actually float over the frets. Amazing...
That gave me an eargasm....
I like the fact that the world of music has room for someone as spectacularly facile as Max as well as someone as earthy and simple as John Prine. The "Music Buffet" can sate any palate.
It's impossible to listen to Max Ostro without a big smile of joyning.
I AM AMAZED, so playful, joyful... Yet with a russian drama face on top of it 😊 Max is the real deal
The kid sounds great!!! I hear a Greg Howe influence, too. 😊
I was just about to say the same thing.
@@powerseostrategy Likewise.
First time I ever saw him play i was also lost for words 😂
This is the reincarnation of Pushkin, the genius of Russian poetry! Only on the guitar. 👏
he adjusts those knobs and switches lightning fast.
Awesome! What a player! Got chops and style
simplemente un genio de esta era
Unrivaled virtuosity. OMG
Phenomenal talent! Amazing chops, tasty phrasing, highly technical. I'm totally blown away with the new breed of guitarists currently dominating the scene. They're on a whole other level from a technical standpoint and better than five of my guitar heroes from yesteryear combined! The one gripe that I do have is the tone. It's a super clean and pristine tone, but they all sound alike nowadays. Thoughts?
I've been watching this cat for awhile now and maan is he ever clean. Very skilled but also just so smooth and clean
Been following Max for years. His firsr vids let you know He was going to be a Force to be reconed with.
My favorite solo in yeeeears! Max is it.
Wow! What a left hand! Really wonderful!
So young, so good 😃👏👏👏🎊
The kids today not play guitar, Max is a rare jewel in this World !!!!
That shirt tho. I saw them open for Dream Theater in 2022. They were pretty sick.
I think this guy should be one of the greatest of all times. Amazing talent! I think he's had to deal with some challenges that were of fault of his own.🥲😇 May he have continued favor & success.
The kid is so freakin good!
Divine Max ima! Put that on your T SHIRT merch !
Max has crazy flow in his playing.
Max is awesome. Watch how he switches pickups multiple times in this performance. True slight of hand there :)
Not just switching pickups, splitting coils in different variations at the same time
2:49 - that's the best part. Agree about the three note bend as well.
His soul completely left his body and went straight into his guitar
Stunning, all the more so as he doesn’t look at his hand all that often !!!
Check out the song Rhumba. He’s alot younger and I was blown away. It’s your first song I saw of his.
He has an Yngwie level of instrument mastery.
Спасибо земляк!
he did not even notice he uses his right rand finger style and finger picked hundreds of notes did anyone else not notice its so slick you can barely see
he is watching up there, someone is whispering inspirations ...
Satriani on Crying make double bends in the same fret . Staring the frase bendig up ,then a semitone down, a semitone down, senitone up, senitone down, senitone up, semitone up and a tone down .
Btw ! Bravo Max Ostro
Clean and smoooooooth...
Smooth jazz music
Love Max's playing! I've read that he uses a thimble on the little finger of his picking hand. Ron (bumblefoot) Thal also uses that technique, so Max is in good company.
Max has such an incredible range of influences at such a young age. Definitely takes huge inspiration from Ron Thal, and also players like Shawn Lane (in some of his videos with less legato and more picking, you can really hear it), Guthrie Govan, Buckethead, and a sprinkle of Holdsworth. I still can’t believe he’s still a teenager, it’s gonna be incredible to see where he’s at in just a few years, one of the best in the world.
Oh man, he really reminds me of Guthrie haha, just makes this stuff look completely effortless 🥵
you're right, even if I hear more of Tom Quayle on this one.
X-Games Guitar!
Love that dude.
A young Robert Fripp right there multiplied by 11. 😉🙂🙏✌️
That was very good Jeff
Thanks Lyn!
The best, & i guess is the groovest too.
Love the arch echo shirt!! Great band
Быстрые пальцы.Максим хорош!
Yes! 👏👏👏
crazy good
Wowwwww😱 amazing man
That crazy bend thing was great. If you havent seen Chris Poland play, he is an EXPERT of that technique and uses it all throughout his playing too.
Thanks for the tip Rob!
Chris Poland!!!!
I think the knob is a blender. Blending the pickups. Max is my polar opposite. I pick everything and use legato almost not at all.
He comes from a planet called guitarrrr
Very musical considering his technical virtuosity.
Great, using the Tommy Emmanuel thumb over the base E string technique as well as so many ther skills.
his mannerisms and choice of notes during the "easily" executed
legato runs, remind me of Tom Quayle..
Yeah yeah.....................but can he play Smoke on the Water?
😂👍
Classy🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Is he constantly checking his volume and tone knobs? I see the pickup switching.
Ya that’s what I was wondering too
He’s probably checking it to make sure he hasn’t accidentally turned them while messing with the little silver switch in between. As far as the pickup selector, it seems Max likes to use it for the percussive sound it gives when you click it as much as for tonal reasons. If you watch “when luck failed”, you will see a great example of this. You will notice he’s clicking it back in forth in time with the music and not playing another note until he’s back on the original pickup. Pretty interesting stuff. Does anyone know what the little silver switch is? Does it split the humbuckers into singles or something? I’ve heard terms like “outta phase” but don’t really know exactly what that means. lol I’m guessing it does something to those pickups. 🤷🏻♂️
Chris Poland, former Megadeth guitarist, uses that bend trick quite a lot
Just when we're getting our heads around the genious of Matteo, along comes this "totally cool" kid, who just knocked it outta the park. Lots to look forward to here. Thanks Jeff.
Life is so unfear 😪
the guy's full name in Russian is made up of two words Sharp Mind.
I can't even imagine what he'll be playing in twenty years!!
With that hair, he's like the reincarnation of Mozart.
the strings seem to flow in his hands 😮
Это дети нового поколения. И мы должны гордиться тем, что они вобрали в себя уже в юном возрасте
всё то лучшее что имели мы и к чему стремились долгие годы через кровь, пот и слёзы. Видать не зря мы жили и живём.
"нам"-то чем гордиться? "мы" тут ни при чем ))) "нам" самим надо сего-то достигать
i think it takes him a split second from one note to another a tenth of a second?
No one touches this guy he’s not human could be a bot
amazing player is this guy even real
HAVE YOU SEEN (UNITED GUITARISTS) STARRY EYED DREAMERS. WAIT FOR MAX'S SOLO
thing that stood out is his hair. he got pat metheny hair.
