    Jan Cyrka is probably best known for three solo albums full of meaty guitar playing: "Beyond the Common Ground", "Spirit" and "Prickly Pear". However, Jan's career began in the 1980s when he was guitarist-in-chief with cartoon biker band Zodiac Mindwarp and the Love Reaction, supporting Guns 'n' Roses on extensive tours of the US and Canada. He now composes and records music for a variety of clients and his music has appeared on TV shows and movies such as Friends, Hi-Fidelity (John Cusack), The Fast and the Furious, Saturday Night Live, America's Most Wanted, Wife Swap, The Jeremy Kyle Show, Absolutely Fabulous and many others.
    Jan produced the monthly instructional CD accompanying Guitarist magazine for over ten years, and has worked with many of the world's finest players in his studio, including Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, Paul Gilbert, Mick Taylor, Pat Travers, Yngwie Malmsteen, Jerry Donohue, Billy Sheehan and Zakk Wylde. Jan also produced and mixed Guthrie Govan incredible first album 'Erotic Cakes'.

    Shredders take note: - blasting away at a million miles an hour is entertaining for about 5 minutes, this kind of playing is far more memorable. If most of us could play half as well as this guy we would be happy, texture, phrasing, melody, tone - its all here and it's fantastic - Thanks Jan

      It's about putting it all together. If you listen to somebody give a speech you don't want Is monotone speaking, You want inflection. Say it loud say it soft, Speed up slow down, Et cetera

      I’m not a guitarist but I would sell my soul to play like this.
      I have Jan’s album “Guitar Heroes”
      Guthrie Govan guests on a few tracks as well James Graydon, Alex Hutchings, Clive Caroll and couple more guitarists love the album for all the different styles approached.
      I’m just the bloke who hangs around musicians, a Drummer
      I take this approach to playing and listening to music
      Close my eyes
      Listen with my ears
      Feel it with my heart.
      Jan Cyrka’s playing is perfect for my very simplistic approach, it has feeling to it.

      It’s crazy, but this just got recommended to me, and I am at a point in my playing, where I want to slow down and start falling back on really intricate phrasing rather than just shred solos like I used to do. This piece would be tough for me personally just because I know I’d unintentionally rush a lot of the notes.

    It's funny to think that some years ago I watched this video and I thought "Wow! This guy is amazing! I don't know why I haven't heard of him before. JTC should pay more attention to him" without even realizing that he is THE FOUNDER of JTC!
    It's great to know that the boss is a hell of a player too!

    I Remember Jan from the upper george Halifax 1982. I first saw him play in Bradford and we became pals. He didn't hang around Halifax long as he was destined for bigger things. Your looking well Jan and still you have the magic fingers. All the best from Allan.

    Master of his trade ...the man is a legend.Well for me anyway.He is a legend.

  • @JTCGuitar
    @JTCGuitar  15 ปีที่แล้ว +25

    He has a preamp built into the guitar which boosts the output signal by around four times. This has a low pass filter on it to get rid of the fizzy highs. Combined with the Boss OD-1 and the Laney, and the way he strikes the strings of course, is how he gets that tone. Hope that helps.

    • @johnclark1925
      @johnclark1925 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Super, I was wondering if he had put a sustainer in the middle pick up... thanks for clearing that up. 😎🤘

    Obviously before Guthrie Govan came on the scene but ye! I too love this and think Jan is the man. I like the fact that he is just playing in the mood and not trying to impress as well we know he can play anything. This just has it all for me, I just love it. Peace!

    I am a guitar lover, not a player , but love guitar for the last 50 years . From Jeff Beck, Al di Meola, Pat Metheny, Larry Carlton, Frank Gambale, Allan Hodsworth, Shaw Lane , Neal Schon etc...
    And my all time favourite Andrew Latimer.
    I am looking forward to listening to more of his

    Insane. I remember listening to this masterpiece for the first time 15 years ago and it really blew my mind. The tone, phrasing, pinch harmonics, etc. perfect! I come back to this song al least once a week to get inspired and remind myself you don't have to play 300 notes a second but you need to make sure every note is a hit.
    Im pretty sure I will come back every week for the next 15 years too.
    Thanks Jan!

    What an awesome guitarist, will have this track played at my funeral!!
    I received the cd " Beyond The Common Ground" as a birthday pressie, made turning 50 acceptable!! An absolutely awesome cd for any fan of rock guitar music and by far Jan's best work.
    Joe Satriani rates him very highly, (his own words).
    If you ever decide to tour the UK, please come to Cardiff !!!!!

    Such a fine player & sad he's been around so long & doesn't really get the credit he deserves . Such a unique & awesome feeling way to approach to using the Whammy Bar to work those notes to their fullest . Took some hard looking years ago to find a few of his 90s recordings but well worth it . A real legend more need to hear.
