Please check out our new site Vid A Day Plus at www.vidadayplus.com All New Posts will be Posted there!
So good, the clip was actually on ABC. Amazingly, this kid is not even looking to furthur a career having to do with the guitar. Please check out JerryC’s original cannon rock here.
Sorry, but in order to watch this video you must go HERE!
My fingers hurt just watching that.
He’s pretty damn good!
WOW, very cool. Just stumbled it (which could bring you WAY more than 100 hits).
He’s damned good. Born to play, if you were to ask me. Stumble upon got me here too, just like Anita.
another stumbler, woulda been nice to see/hear him play without all the backgrounds to see how good he really was.
That is very awesome. wish I could play that well 😦
Stumbled here too, awesome. I caouldn’t even attempt that!
great ! thanks for posting. Is that a Fender?
a Limerick is all I have
Check it out:
There was a young chick from Natchez
Whose blouses was always in patchez….
When a comment arose…
and-they-dissed-on- her-clothes,
She went, “When Ah Itchez, Ah Scratchez”
Happy New Year!
Another stumbler here. I’m jealous of that kid!
Awesome His parents definitely are not wasting money in guitar lessons. I stumbled here what a great stumble for the New Year. A gifted young musician. Now lets hope His parents know… for wouldn’t it be a travesty if he is flunking chemistry and they so riding him on that they are unaware he has talent… It can happen so let’s hope he has great parent’s behind that guitar who listen and encourage him to do his passion. For life doesn’t end with chemistry, although if he needs a tutor in a subject by all means get him one. However wealth of spirit and life comes with doing one’s passion. Wish someone had told us that before we figured it out at 40.
stumbled upon this too,,,
Hes amazing,,,
was it that speed or did he speed it up…coz its hard to bilieve he can play that fast,,,his fingers were ablur!!!
Lessons? No Way Charltina, That Kid is Self taught, I can Tell! …
Smiles over at Rhapsody* Well met but what a gift.( Happy New Year to You Rhapsody and to all that stumble here and get a New Year’s present unexpectedly.
I’m a stumbler too…and I am amazed! I love guitar music!!
Stumbler:
That’s not that amazing. I’ve seen people play better than that at the age of 15.
Wow! Freddie Mercury would have loved you.
Definately – Lessons won’t get you that far, and would limit your ability. Clearly self-taught, always the best route.
STUMBLERS FTW!!! And your pretty damn good
I like the arrangement. el guitarrista tiene un poco de hambre pero el que hizo el arreglo es un capo.
wow what a remarkable talent it is obvious that this talented young man could well be on his way to stardom if that is his choiceif not then perhaps writing will be his gift to the world .It would be nice to know his name to follow his progress
Another Stumbler. He is amazing. One of the best rock Cannons I have ever heard.
I stumbled in as well, had seen the clip when it first was released, but even now it is just amazing. And I totally agree with Estelle66, Freddie Mercury would have loved that track. So classically Queen.
insane!
stumbled it also
Absolutely incredible…..what an amazing talent!!
omgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomg
ANOTHER GUITAR VIDEO.
irc junkie Stumbler here :p
That was some of the best guitar playing I have ever heard. I stumbled here also and I didn’t know it was possible to play the guitar that well. I am quite a good musician, so I appreciated the extremely complicated variations on the theme. That guy should seriously consider becoming a professional guitar player. He moved his fingers so fast they bust have started hurting badly!
This is not a kid, he’s a 20-something Korean guy who goes by the pseudonym “Funtwo”. A self-taught virtuoso and amazing talent. Check out his version of Dream Theater’s “Overture 1928” > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Se12JGfpCdY
I hope that kid changes his mind and does play a guitar in a band or something, it would be a loss to the world to keep a talent like that to himself.
Good stumble Anita! 😀
wow absolutely awesome !!!! jealous to death lol what an amazing and talented young man a pleasure to listen to I will bookmark and listen often
Wow, all these stumbles on new years day…
Great job kid, you should go do Trans Siberian or something…
Oh, lol “Vid a Day” different one each day…
^^^^^^^^^^ IS A MORON ^^^^^^^
rofl, this is a cover of jerryc’s
jerryc’s doesnt screw up ^^ check him out hes sick =p
Stumbled. Canon is the most beautiful song ever, and this guitar rendition is incredible.
Wow, it’s clear that this video isn’t even real! The guitar track is just superimposed over him randomly plucking the strings!
Stumbled also, great vid I am going to start forwarding this around to anyone I know who hasn’t seen it yet.
I do agree I wish there was less background so you could hear the kid alone but oh well. Maybe there are other videos of this dude around?
Stumbled here, saw it first on Soapbox. the timing seemed off there so I thought he was finger-syncing, but if it was on TV then I’ll believe it’s legit.
Stumbled here… It’s an ESP, not a very nice one though 😉
Wow, so many comments, it’s hard to respond to them! I’ll start out by saying that he is definitely not a fake. I don’t know much about guitars, but I am told by people who do that he does make a few mistakes. If he wasn’t actually playing it, there would be no mistakes. This guitar player’s online alias is FunTwo, and there are many more videos of him on YouTube.
Thanks a load to Anita, who stumbled this in the first place. I am now number 1 in fastest growing blogs on WordPress, and have received over 2000 views today.
that is very impressive! Another Stumbler, another New Years Day. No, that’s not a Fender.
this is the admin
remarkably, that is really him. when you are that good, you don’t event think. your fingers go when they are supposed to do. he is a beast. I appreciate all the views and positive comments.
another stumbler!
all i can say is wow.
Stumbled too. This kid is very talented !!! awesome !
It sounds similar to Steve Vai
I stumbled here, too. He’s REALLY good…I wish I could play like that!
Awesome! Fantastic stumble for the first day of the year!
Another Stumbler 🙂
Man that’s AWESOME playing , i wish i could someday play like him .
That kid have some future.. but he’s not thinking about it heh
YES INDEED!!!!!!>>>THANK YOU STUMBLE!!>>.IS ALWAYS A GOOD TIME STUMBLING HERE!!!!
Hallo Stumblers,
I also stumbled in here.
Great guitar player
Phantastic. Congragulations.
Grretings from Germany.
Great playing. I stubled here also and definitely like it…
Like those before – I Stumbled. Some day look for this kid’s name to be added to the list of the giants like of Robert Johnson, Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page, Buddy Guy, BB King, Jeff Beck, Roy Buchannan….. what a gift. Send this link to anyone at the Berkely School of Music.
Lol, I’m as well a Stumbler who got here by that very sort. And this kid is good, I’m glad I stumbled here.
I think this guy is amazing and obviously loves what he does. I too chose not to make music a career as it would make it a “job”. Not everyone wants to sell their talent. As for the poster that knows better 15 yr. olds, I never heard this guy say he was better than anyone. Always a naysayer in the crowd. Post your latest concert, undeaded, so we can judge you.
Stumbled as well.
What a world where I can sit in my home, and discover talent like that from across the world.
We live in an age of amazement.
[…] Couldn’t help watching I first saw this clip on https://vidaday.wordpress.com/2006/12/30/amazing-guitarist/, I really cannot resist the great guitarist’s awesome performance. Below is the original clip on Youtube. […]
As it turns out, we didn’t do our homework here at Vid A Day. He is not actually kid. He is a 23 year old man from South Korea. He has been playing the guitar for six years.
Stumbled as well.
Another Stumbler:))
This kid is amazing.
Josh, this video was made about 2 years ago. that is only 4 years of practice and a 21 year old man
yep, i stumbled it as well, damn that guy is good, i’d like to hear it without the drums in its raw form, but DAMN, he is good, props to him
WO hoo! hello fellow stumblers! great vid seen this a million times always love it
I’ve been playing guitar for a while, and it is clearly not a fake video, and for the people who are like “wow his fingers must hurt from playing fast” that is actually the exact opposite, it hurts less when playing fast, since your fingers are barely touching the strings to produce the sound, and I’m guessing your referring to the “rake style” of the song at those points where its an arpeggio but using a metal-esk style of technique to produce the sound. But back to the video, yes I enjoy it, great job to whoever wrote it and to who plays it nice job, good sync, a few mess ups but anyone that doesn’t play guitar won’t notice at all anyway. Keep up the good work there
Oh so very old.
Yes, this kid is good.
Check out Trace Bundy for another version of this song.
http://www.tracebundy.com
myspace.com/tracebundy
And your mind will be blown.
I am going to Start playing the guitar soon, I can only hope to be half as good as this person is, (stumbled too -ty anita for marking it)
Stumbler too !
And yes, that’s guy’s good ! I think it’s the second video he made, I already saw him on another video playing the same song.
Hmmm, this guy is not all that great. Check out this one at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATub40Npxik Now he is way better! And no, it is not me!
I wish I could watch this.
[…] Amazing feet guitarist/手の無いギタリスト これはすげー しかし、どうやでそのギターを持って帰る? Vid A Dayさんで見つけたギタリストも凄いけどな […]
Haha, it’s just another Version started by Jerry C. Now if you really want to see something really amazing… : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bI1PfmDl8fo
amazing stuff from funtwo!
Yeah, I love this song, even have it on my iPod.
Canon Rock performed by Funtwo, arranged by JerryC, awesome piece of guitaring.
Remake of a classic piece by Pachebel.
has anybody here heard name of malmsteen?
yes I think this guy plays pretty well but I don’t think he’s one of the best players in the world.Cause there’s already Vai,Petrucci etc. But maybe after a few years of hardwork,he can be one of them!
Amazing. He should devote his life to music and composing.
🙂
god half the guitar videos i stumble across are in this campy 80s speed-metal style. i give props for it but come on…there are other ways to play guitar impressively.
Why is the kid hiding his face with the baseball cap? Why does the music sound like it was studio produced? What is amazing is what we can do with video.
Stumbled~
Very interesting, indeed.
stumbler here! coolness!
i stumbeld here also hes great! thats amazing
Stumble upon rocks. This guy is pretty fucking good at the guitar
Hahaha
I Stumbled On This
Stumbling Maybe The Best Thing Ever
This Kid Is Beast
stumbled also
This kid is awesome, he should consider a musical career, if not playing guitar than possibly writing music. either way the music would be awesome.He is possibly the best guitar player I have ever heard! Amazing, it guitar solo dragon force would be jealous of.. in fact, it even sounded like them! He should be their lead guitarist!
stumbled, but this vid has been up on youtube and others for days.
them’s some fast fingers.
This video is so old…. To add, many people have done this same song with no problem.
stumbled here aswell, hello fellow stumblers
happy new year
fantastic
Holy crap! you can’t tell this kid as good with all the background “nosie”? Press mute and you can still tell this kid is great!
Stumbler here too, how nice to see you all!
That kid has talent to spare, so why won’t he give me some??
Wookey
x
Very good, seen better, ie faster and mostly improv. still a talent id love to have
can someone tell me why anyone would want to play like this guy? I can’t think of anything more boring – give him some long hair and some spandex and let him dick about on 10 minute solos, but he’ll still be boring and still play with no feeling and no subtlety whatsoever. I can stand about 30 seconds of this drivel before my mind wanders off. There are SO MANY AMAZING MUSICIANS IN THE WORLD. This guy’s not one of them.
[…] aber zu gut um katastrophal-cool zu sein, mehr aufmerksamkeit als der Rest der Welt. Nachdem ich das hier gesehen hab bin ich auch gut motiviert. When the Angels Sing klappt schon ganz gut, das Smoke on […]
Stumbler too, it’s always the people who have no great interest in what they are doing rather than just having fun, that are the ones that are amazingly good at what ever it is there doing.
stubled also. pretty amazing.
Wow only been here for a couple of days and a crap load of people stumbled it. BTW I did too. 😉 Thank you Stumble! And that kid is really damn good.
Yeah, I stumbled, too. That was some rock, rock on stuffs.
I feel sad because he pwns me at vibratos…but I guess it’s a little harder on a bass lol.
Hehehehe…nice name, Doug…
NICE…
GO STUMBLERS!!!! thats how i got here, tho i have seen this b4… still awesome
i wanna no who thumbs upped this…
out
-MickeyD
Ahh, canon rock. A tough piece, no doubt 🙂 I mastered it in 3 minutes :P!
Wonderful! Thanks for sharing – my son has a PRS and plays all the time – I am sure it is helping him survive and thrive in highschool.
I stumbled here also! He is Awesome>>>>
It doesn’t matter to me how long he’s been practicing or how old he is
He is just awesome !!
Dude your awesome I’m not nearly that good you could be the next Jimi Hendrix or Stevey Rayvoughn
im another stumbler…
i hear he cant put on a very good performance but if he could hed probably think twice about the music career
Ahahaha. I think you mean Stevie Ray Vaughn.
Hendrix is nothing compared to guitarists these days. He was innovative, but technically speaking, he would have trouble playing this piece.
He’s a pretty good guitarist. I can’t play anything like that, but comparing him with people i’ve watching, he’s not Ghandi or anything.
Stumble stumble stumble
this kid fucking OWNS at guitar
you wish dont you
holy crap . thats awesome. i wish i could play like that.’
stumble upon = insomnia. trust me, i know
i almost cried it was inspiring..so great, i loved his talent so what if people have seen younger or better, this kids still amazing. the people who have said they have seen better are clearly ignorant to respecting someones ability. half of those who said it was ok couldn’t do that if their lives depended on it.
i love stumble
Stumbled on in……….Amazing!
talented kid, way to go
Stumble, and yes, amazing
What an incredibly inspiring piece of guitar playing! The feelings this invoked inside of me are indescribable. I felt immense happiness and even got tears in my eyes. Simply fantastic. Its things like this that remind you how amazing human minds really are.
Very cool. Bit cheesy tho isn’t it? 🙂
Interesting…
Dragonforce anyone?
All I can say is WAY COOL DUDE
stumblers of the world unite! i didnt know you could play that kind of music on a guitar, but as someone said the background music makes me wonder if he needs some music to guide him or if he just likes to “play along” either way hes very good, age doesnt matter, but i think that everyone should listen to more musicians… cause hes good, but not the best =)
Carlos Santana, check it out and hire him as backup for your next tour or album. Smokin’.
Wow, talk about an old vid. I blogged about this back in August 🙂 And it made the NY Times back then.
“This video hs been up for days”??? I posted it back in February, and I stole it from another WordPress blog. I have heard that it’s more than a couple of years old, but what does it matter really?
It’s still gold, though. Absolutely worth watching again.
Such amazing talent.
Although he screwed it up a bit at the end – you can see him turn his head, looks like he’s thinking “damn, I was so close”. Great vid tho.
Stumbled here as everyone else
this is not talent. it’s lessons and practice and a complete bore. i’m assuming most of these posts are from non-musicians. LAME. Zzzzz
wicked
Technically good, I suppose, but
I couldn’t listen to it for more than a few bars.
Would any really buy a cd of that to listen to repeatedly?
fake from beginning to end, good job moving the fingers to the music though, that took practice to get it right. very entertaining though, glad i stumbled upon it. ive been playing for 10 years. you can tell its fake because of the back up orchestra playing in the background, and the fact that he is sitting by his computer speakers…. if he can prove me wrong please do so here at http://www.constantskeptic.com. Until then, I remain constantly skeptical.
Seriously people, you need to watch right through to the end; the music does change. This video has indeed been questioned since it went up, but take a listen: SOMEONE played that. And here we have a kid who looks damn like it was him; why would it not be him?
hey i’m a stumbler too but have seen the vid a few times. this guy is great. I also play guitar and it isnt fake, his name is funtwo and even does concerts now. There are more vids on youtube.com. He’s a legend and a very good guitarist..
I stumbled here as well, although I believe I’ve seen an asian girl playing the same thing a while back on another site I’ve stumbled.
Stumbler. One of my fav songs turned rock. I love it! Kid rules!
stumbler! my best friend can play stuff like that and he’s that age… it’s not that unbelievable… if you’re actually dedicated to guitar and play a lot, you can get that good within a couple of years. and also it isn’t like he’s doing anything amazing. for amazing check out leo kottke… that’s some amazing guitar skills (at least on his album “one guitar, no vocals”
holy crap, how many people stumbled on this? i didnt think stumble was quite a big thing, or that it would lead so many to the same thing. including me.
Where is the amazing guitarist?
😀
respect!!!
This video has been proven not to be fake. The reason he is sitting next to his computer speakers is because there is background music playing. He is only playing the guitar part.
I have an ethical/tech question for anyone who cares to answer it (please do!) Should I submit all my posts to Digg and Stumble Upon to generate more traffic, or should I let other readers do the submitting?
Better (very)late than never I guess lol
The originator of this was Jerry C (http://jerryc.co.uk/).
I was blown away the first time I saw his vid and it still rocks even now years later!
Good find!
stumbler, amazing job
Kudos to the guy.
I believe its pretty real,I mean even if he was faking,hes faking pretty damn well enough to actually do the song anyway.
eh,I’m usually a gibson/epiphone kinda guy though
damn dude…i wish i could have that kinda talent…and damn alot of stumblers…im one to…gotta love it…any who…DAMN DUDE THIS KID IS AWSOME!!!!
These comments… It’s as if no one had ever seen someone play guitar! lol
Another Stumbler here :0)
Amazing playing, especially for his age. I’m so glad he’s shared it with us all.
Holy…. wow
Stumble rocks
The guy certainly has a rare talent…. something perhaps that the “knockers” wish they had but haven’t. It annoys the hell out of me that critics are so sure of themselves, yet have absolutely nothing to back up their statements. So what if he is in front of his pc?
Get a life! The guitarist has one for sure. Good on him!
Stumbling on!
Another stumbler here….
If it’s real….WOW!!! Sure hope Trans Siberian Orchrestra stumbles upon him and if it’s not real….great entertainment!!
AWESSSOOOMMEEEE!!
AMAZING !!!!!!!!!!!!
WOW….
DO HE HAVE FACE ?
a satriani or vai in making???
I can’t believe I listened and really enjoyed him. Good for him.
I like the music.
He could be self taught, but his sitting position is like someone who is taught by lessons in the classical fasion. But then again, I am self taught and sit like that anyways.
He is good though.

love it.
We’re alllll stumblers.
Very gifted & has probably put in a hell of a lot of practice. Astonishing the people who bad mouth a kid with a very special ability. He’s not claiming to be the best guitarist in the world. Relax guys!
we’re not worthy. great piece, you’ve made her scream.
Stumbluh2
pretty good, but check this guy out:
http://dmbennett.wordpress.com/2007/01/07/219/
terrible song, terrible choice of song
I stumbled here too….amazing though
I stumbled on this video, watched it and my fingers started bleeding!
Incredible
Stumbled! Whoa, this kid is amazing, at least if he was self-taught. Even if he had lessens tho, it would take a long time and a lot of dedication to get that far! It’s too bad that he doesnt want to pursue it, propably not as a career but it cant do any harm as a hobby, or neighbourhood band.
This kid’s got talent, way to go!
WOW !! Hes awesome !
Web Guitar Wizard Revealed at Last – New York Times
One of the most popular hits on this blog , since it was posted on Jan. 18th, has been this guitar video. Now the NY Times reveals “Who is this guy?” Turns out we had posted the original version, which later popularized with a version by a guy that called himself funtwo, who had added a drum track.
Eight months ago a mysterious image showed up on YouTube, the video-sharing site that now shows more than 100 million videos a day. A sinewy figure in a swimming-pool-blue T-shirt, his eyes obscured by a beige baseball cap, was playing electric guitar. Sun poured through the window behind him; he played in a yellow haze. The video was called simply “guitar.” A black-and-white title card gave the performer’s name as funtwo.
The piece that funtwo played with mounting dexterity was an exceedingly difficult rock arrangement of Pachelbel’s Canon, the composition from the turn of the 18th century known for its solemn chord progressions and its overexposure at weddings. But this arrangement, attributed on another title card to JerryC, was anything but plodding: it required high-level mastery of a singularly demanding maneuver called sweep-picking.
[…] Wow, saw this blog entry linking to YouTube of a young guitarist. Took me back to the 80’s when I was a teenager and made me very […]
Yeah… I’ve seen that before – totally incredible.
I like the song as well…
Came out of curiousity after WordPress noted you as a top post.
I have to say the guy is okay. Not unbelievably amazing but very competent. I used to play in a band and our guitarist (who was sixteen at the time) could play stuff like that with his eyes shut.
Good luck to the lad though. He does have a talent.
I play a little but no-where near that standard. The video looks real enough especially the odd bum note towards the end.
But I have to agree with halfeatendonut further up
is REAL genius.
Top
Another Stumbler… Wow. Id love to see him play Guitar Hero
Seriously though, my group of musician friends are gonna die when they see this.
I’ve seen this many time and it is very crazy. Cool, though. Canon in D.
I am really impressed. This is great.
Reminds me of my old friend Steve Morse[dot com] from the 70’s. He was playing that well then.
This kid rocks!
Keep it up.
[…] Link: YouTube vía Vid a Day […]
Stumble’d too
The intro was incredible
i didn’t knew it was the guitar !
awesome player
he’s to become the next Eric Clapton
Another Stumbler
Keep Rockin !
I’m in awe…
Shock, and awe…
I stumbled too, cheers!
While he is good hes not that good, ive seen much better. Sorry to those of you who thought he was amazing.
the background music ruins it, i think he is good but not the best i have seen… stumble got me here as well
I suppose to a non guitarist it’s pretty cool but it’s really not that difficult to play.
i have to say ( this kid is good)
but seriously i know like 20 other people who are my age(16) who play thousands of times better, and no one knows shit about them, (yesthey do make and post vids on the web. jus because he played along to a remake to a classical song THAT ANOTHER BAND MADE I MIGHT ADD
does not make you a prodigy of any sort,
im not here to bag on him because he is good but im here to say that
you dont need to play a classical song TO BE GOOD i.e. this kid
P.s yes i do play guitar so i kno how hard those goddamn sweeps are
(i TREMOLO LIKE HIM
oh yeah i stumbled
Not really a “rare” talent but a talent none the less. The piece itself is lovely so it makes you feel all those good things even without the guitar noise on top.
It’s good though, I enjoyed it warts and all and it’s interesting to read the non-musician, and non-guitarist comments. Guitarists know what this is, but that opinion is best kept secret as it upsets non-guitarist types too much.
Anyone catch the last G3 concert? now they play pretty damned well but it’s pretty uninspired except for Steve Vai whom I love a lot.
How about the guy dissin’ Hendrix like he couldn’t play this. Yes-way he could play this for sure mate. Hendrix had a lot of technical skill, however blues directed it was he had the chops to tacle this piece. You have to remember this guy has been practiceing up this thing to show off on you tube for how ever long?
Wooo…Not that exciting…In fact most of it is power chords with momentary shreds thrown in.
But yea anyone who has played for more then 5 year should be able to accomplish that especially with the amount of effects he has thrown onto it.
The sweeps are good but still the effects are what make it.
Play arpeggios from hell perfectly then I’ll be impressed.
stumbled! you got props
i stumbled as well. that was pretty cool
STUMBLE CITY
MY INSIDES ARE HAPPY BECAUSE OF THIS VIDEO
ROCK ON that shits MAD!
p.s i stumbled that too
stumbled…again..but must say dude ur awesum…..
I just love Stumbler.
This particular canon has always been one of my favorite pieces of music, and an unconventional approach always makes it even more appealing if it’d done tastefully. This is most certainly done tastefully. While he plays with the music, he is true to the form of the piece. I enjoyed this very much and will probably show it off to my friends.
Excellent. But what a lot of knobs there are posting here. I read only the first 30 or so coments. Self-satisfied, pompous, stuck-up fuckwits, the lot of them. All experts in guitar, or soooo world weary in their experience in canons on the guitar. Why don’t you fucking shut up and enjoy it for what it is?
Stumbled on this one….
Sounds great! I tried to play this song but it’s too fast for me so I use a kitchen mixer and that’s the clue to this whole thing! No seriously, he should make himself known!
stumbled ….(suprise!!)
I like this Canon very much and I like also this virtuosic verion of it! Thanks!
What definitely don’t need is another shredder. This kid is doing what others have been doing for ages. Malmsteen did Neo-Classical 20 years ago, and it was boring then. Yea, he can play fast, but he probably can’t write his own songs. There’s no feeling in his playing. It’s just fast.
Boring my ass. The word is timeless. That boy is mad if he’s not thinking of using that talent. I’ve heard many other kids trying to achieve this effect and failing miserably – the Pachelbel’s Canon cover is not original, but this one is exceptional.
And apologies for double-commenting, but the writing of his own songs is totally irrelevant 🙂
yep stumble here too. some of the best playing ive see from a kid in a long time.
another stumbler here!!! this kid is good…he could go places
another stumbler! this kid is awsome, would be good to hear with out the background noise! he could definatly go places
Stumbled ^-^ so he is good… too good if you ask me! ^-^ keep it up kid.
ASTEG!!!
rock on!!!
Just stumbled in too !!
Very good, keep it up.
Keep Stumbling
Another Stumbler – what song is he playing? And by who?
Love canon … stumbled as well but think the background “kills your skills!”
typical neo-classical shred guitar. this isn’t as good as the version by the guy who actually transcribed it for guitar (known as Jerry C, from Thailand) – the kid probably got the tablature from guitar world (yes, it was in there) and learned it. all it takes is three weeks of practice or so, and for a guitarist, thats not really that long.
but he shows potential – he made some interesting changes in the ending that sounded pretty good.
shred is pretty typical these days, but i like stuff like this…its got more feeling to it than typical thrash solos.
it’s fake
wow that was awsome, i watch it all the time. stumbler +1
Yeah, I saw this on ABC also! He’s Asian, haha, whooo.
Pants drummer…

Not a stumbler. But that’s freaking SICK!
stumbled in – great Canon! This kid is great tho I would have liked to hear him wo the background.
Espetacular! Demais! Excelente!
check this guy out, he’s right up your alley! Love ya
grande invenção….
tentaste
I stumbled in here too, What amazing talent this guy has. He should go far musically speaking.
*jealous* i wish i could play like this!! but i also agree with stumbluh that it would be nice to hear him play without the background music so we could actually hear him…kinda reminds me of a new-age Trans-Siberian Orchestra, love them too!!
Damn that kid was awesome. Fellow stumbler.
ummm…ridiculous. stumbler as well. Is he japanese? the japanese have a knack for perfecting the art of music….check out ebaums…there’s proof. good luck to this kid in the future anyway.
fake
Amazing-
Another stumbler
Fantastic!
I am stumbler too
EVERYONE STUMBLES NOW??? damn, i thought it was something rare. anyways, yes the guy knows his stuff, but it’s not too amazing if you consider that he has probably been learning the guitar since he was 5.

Espectacular, simplesmente espectacular.

That was absolutely amazing. He remins me of a young Jason Becker or something.
I wish I could be like him in my second life. Ureka and “Mabuhay”!
Good lord …just …wow …i wish i could play half as good as him(or at all for that matter lol) and what do you mean “fake” alwe? puh leez, you’re just jealous…another stumbler by the way
hey lomorace i know you posted a while ago and i hope you read this, no band wrote this song. for someone who is getting offended by the way this kid plays for some reason you need to stop pretending like you know what you’re talking about and find out who origionally wrote this piece. thanks!
Wow,stumbled here too.
hey super awsume maan !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it was like rocking i love it i wish i could play like him maan:((
i am suprised:-O
anyways but i love it its awsume maan
good going dude!!!!!!!
yay for stumble first off.
And nice! I would compare him to Zakk Wilde, who was on Ozzfest in 06 if anyone else saw him- put this kid in leather and he’d earn tons of money!
Ok, 21y/o… 24y/o…. 4yrs practice… 6yrs practice… Dude is absolutely amazing…!!!!!!!! 🙂
haha i wonder how many people stumbled here, i sure did 🙂
Ok, assuming everyone who stumbled in signed… and those who signed wrote the word STUMBLE in their sign…. then there’s 116…
Here’s Number 117!
uau…
YOU ARE A FREAKING GOD. Thats all I gotta say. Incredible.
Stumbler_ That was the SHIT!
i stumbled also.this guy is world class brilliance at its best.damn shame he wont be furthering his carreer in music for the rest of the planet to follow and enjoy his talents.
dude u gotta be kidding me this dude is awesome ive listened to it like 50 million times on you tube over 13million views!!!! if i copuld play that good id be famous and yes he was on tv on like nbc or something
he ought to get together with the drummer I just posted.
Seen it before. A guitarist I know was there and he said it’s basically the setting you tune into on the guitar. You find that sweet spot on your amp and you’re set.
Some good talent, but basically just knowing his way around the system.
I love how he hid his face just to spite all the people who thought it was freaking amazing though. Few people would do that anymore — they would stick there face in the camera.
For that, I give him kudos.
yea im a stumbler too :P. wow this kid could be a guitar hero. i play guitar myself and im not that good yet.
He is too good. plus, he plays cannon so that makes him great.:D
I’m stumbled here too and I stopped stumbling for playing it again & again…
this kid is amazing!!!! but then again, i would bet my dog that he’s taken violin lessons since he was in 1st grade. You can tell by how he plays with his left hand that he’s a violin player. And plus, every asian amazing guitarist i know usualy played violin before haha. i would kill to play like him
Incredible playing, just mesmerising to watch his fingers go.. fantastic stuff! Probably has had heaps of experience and such but doesnt stop him from being good.. besides, how would anyone get to that level without practise and experience? Good on him for getting there, keep it up!!
Amateur at best. I would say this is a long way from amazing.
Dude, you fucking rock.
hey kid, record it I’ll buy it. You really have something, share it.
wow…. i’m another stumbler, jumping on the bandwagon a little late, by the looks of it. that guy is AMAZING.
i would buy anything he recorded.
well, this is pure guitar wankery and no-one wanks better than a teenager
that doesn’t mean it’s not good – but hey a spade is a spade.
go dude, spank that strat!

Stumbled on this. ahhhhhh.

I love this kid as much as I love to stumble. Stumble on, Dude!!!

Hey Folks,
I’d like to clear a few things up. First of all I have been playing the guitar for 15 years. Mostly blues and jazz. The reason why you are seeing bitter comments from other guitarists stems from frustration. The reason why it upsets you so much, because you don’t need someone telling you what you should appreciate. Now, you can walk into any guitar center in the country and find at least 3 or 4 guitarists technically better than this kid. Sweeps are a guitar effect usually associated with delay pedals. They take a little time to master due to timing, but honestly, the ny times article seems a little too complimentary. Don’t get me wrong, the kid is good. But the comparisons to srv and hendrix are insulting to other guitarists. There is a plethora of guitarists that can play this well or better. SRV and Hendrix were innovators, plain and simple. Vai, Satriani, Buckethead are some of the most proficient guitarists to ever play. But they still aren’t quite the innovators that Hendrix and SRV were, and SRV actually just mimicked alot of Hendrix. Point being, yes this kid is good, but for all of the lauding taking place, it is certainly frustrating. If you are truly that impressed with this guy, then get out there and support your local musicians, the ones who actually compose their own songs. Expand your horizon, push for more new music on the radio. Not every unsigned artist is good, but unfortunately there are a lot of brilliant musicians who go completely ignored, a lot. People tend to look for different things to be impressed by with guitarists. Speed, Soul, Proficiency, etc. No matter what your taste, this guy does not top any lists (at least based on this video). Just another You Tube hype fest. For those who play and are impressed, practice till your fingers bleed and never be satisfied, when you reach this kid’s level, you’ll set higher goals, it’s endless, no one can play the guitar the way they really want to.
T.J.,
Thanks for the lengthy response. It’s always nice to see a well thought out comment in one of our posts, amidst all the crap we get 🙂 . I know that there are guitarists better than this kid. But he is fairly good and is playing a fine piece of music.
We live to entertain you.

A fellow blogger here, found your site via ImpressCMS, and
I have a piece of advice: write more. Honestly, it feels
like you relied on the video to make your point. It’s obvious you know your stuff, so why not use your knowledge to write something more considerable and keep the video as something supplementary (if there at all)?
