Very nice. When I've seen Carlos interviewed he mentions the importance of tone and connecting with the audience. You definitely connected with me and your tone is wonderful.
Congratulations, great performance. With the right gear you could get the perfect time. And with a little more practice you can do it perfect. This is the second best performance on youtube. Congrats, keep rocking!!
Just the other day I heard a guy covering this song and I left a comment saying his playing is the absolutely best I’ve heard thus far. Now I realized that I said that a bit prematurely.
Good cover dude. Well done. i just finished learning it from the album, too. Most players sitting in chairs in a room play it right. The players on the street busking with it, play the first half okay, then they improvise the second part.
Whew man that was pretty much exactly like the record...that vintage SG tone is just amazing! I know that definitely took some time and effort to learn it like the original recording...Carlos doesn't ever do it the same way twice so it's really nice to see it done like that. Thank you so much! You're a really good musician sir!
That was fantastic! Beautifully played. An incredibly faithful version, yet also it felt alive, fresh. It's my favourite guitar piece, there are so many melodic ideas in there, and you captured them all. I play it myself, but *way* less good than that!
Just the best version of the Samba Pa Ti, cover I've heard bar none. Go on young feller and make a name for your self, I think your amazing. Try writing some music for yourself, that's the way you get somewhere. Excellent talent, expand on it.
Great feeling when you play. This is the best cover I ever heard on TH-cam. And yet I have listened several of it. The sound of your guitar is very close to the original ... I guess we all wonder what did you use for that .... May be you can share ?
I am a lifelong Santana fan and guitar player for now about 60 years and yet this is the one amazing guitar sound to which I struggle to get close. I play four songs from that brilliant Abraxus album but without the tonal success you have achieved on 'Samba'. Your skillful, empathetic playing and 'cracking' of that unique tone makes this a truly brilliant rendition. I have even read Santana's own comments on obtaining this unique sound via his 'modded' Fender Twin Reverb, SG and open Waa-Waa pedal. I am not sure that, for me, his current PRS guitar sound and execution recapture the same beautiful feel of Abraxus. I was a little disappointed when I saw him in concert in London a few years ago that he did not play anything from the career changing Abraxus album - he's still great player though. Would you be kind enough to share any of your Guitar Rig settings for this 'Samba' sound and how you cracked his incredible and unique tone. Great job - thanks for sharing a very well done thumbs up👌👍
Absolutely the BEST cover of Samba Pa Ti I've ever heard......AWESOME!!!
Same guitar that Santana used to record this. Bravo kid!!!!!

Very good. Also the sound is stunning. How do you get this sound?
出足から最高👍

Nice guitar.
What is it they use to reproduce the background music while he plays the solo? I always wonder. Ho do they call that equipment?
Wow, Very nice indeed. Way to go, you nailed it.
I have been playing it for months and still sound like crap😂 so I can really appreciate it.
Bravo
😃 Congratulations, full of feeling!!!! BTW what backing track did you use?
