What did we tell you about searching for guys on youtube!!! Jk, But yeah his technique is a little shall we say, unethically technically amazingly bad...

Posted by: Muris Feb 17 2008, 02:01 AM

I don't like his guitar Musicman

It is easy to take him for granted, but correct, he is a pretty incredible guitarist, very few are on his level. We better watch it, or he will have to replace all his hats with bigger ones.

Posted by: Owen Feb 17 2008, 02:04 AM

Yeah man, I have no idea why he holds his pic like that! His playing's really inefficient, but I think theres room for improvement.



Seriously, those Axis things? Like bits of cardboard, just fall to bits if you try and play them too fast!

Just as well this guys keeping it fairly low tempo

Posted by: fkalich Feb 17 2008, 02:09 AM

you hit it on the nail, he is clearly not even close to as good as that guy who plays 58 notes a second. As we were told, we were jealous of that guy. And as we are not showing jealousy towards this Muris fellow, he must clearly not be anywhere near as good as the 58 notes per second guy.

Obviously, I mean, this Muris guy is just not as musically accomplished as that dude who could nail so many notes in a split second, man, I was so jealous of him, In my opinion this Muris guy needs to forget about efficiency and melody and just try to scram as many bum notes as he can into a shortened interval! Thats what makes a REAL guitarist.

but about the pick thing. i feel the way we hold it (assuming you are talking about the horizontal thumb/side of horizontal index finger method, was clearly described on that tablet that Moses dropped going down Mt. Sinai (the one he never told anyone about), as a "thou shalt". But after a guy is this skilled, I would not expect him to change his way. These old guys did not have the advantage of this internet site when they were learning.

Of course I am talking about the celebrated 58 note per second guy, not this Muris "58 note per second wanna be". Who cares how he holds his pick?

Posted by: Owen Feb 17 2008, 02:31 AM

Not me!

I noticed he has some sort of fancy light up pick though. This is is obviously just to distract our attention away from his poor technique and improper phrasing...

Posted by: Muris Feb 17 2008, 02:35 AM

Pick with lights? Guy is a prick,I can tell you that

Yeah, that guy must think he's Bono or something.

Posted by: Tjchep Feb 17 2008, 04:01 AM

Bono doesn't wear his sunglasses in the studio?

Posted by: UncleSkillet Feb 17 2008, 04:27 AM

Man, I found another video of this dude. Who does he think he is anyway. All I no is this is the worst Improvisation ever. He might as well just quit.

Thanks,

He's not bad but in GMC we have instructors that can play like him

Muris is the Man !!! amazing, hats off

Posted by: MickeM Feb 17 2008, 11:31 AM

Yeah, and how weak his technique was. Someone should just hand him a GMC gift certificate

Posted by: wrk Feb 17 2008, 11:44 AM

I don't know if he is worth it, but i would be willing to donate a few $ for his first GMC subscription ... but he should post a few more examples first ...

This was horrendous! My ears actually started bleeding, and then exploded! I started to consider suicide so I could find the sweet release of death...not! Absolutely awesome, Muris. I hope you win Guitar Idol!
