Hey guys!

This weekend has been very special for me because I've worked as translator for Yngwie's masterclass in Buenos Aires. I could meet one of my all time guitar heroes and have a talk. I couldn't be more happy when he congratulated me because of my memory to translate his long answers! You can find a video from that moment at my instagram story: HERE

Some cool pics:

Brilliant Gab, I'm so happy for you. Nice one

That is just killer to the nth degree!!!! Super congrat! It must be a cool story as to how this all came about? How did Yngwie find you to be his translator?

Amazing man, so those are real amps?!

Thank you Phil!!

Wow, that's really cool ! It is nice to see pictures of you and Yngwie.

Well, it was a big surprise for me. The producer who organized the event knows me because of Cirse and my work at GMC. He thought that I was a good choice for the job because of my guitar knowledge and teaching experience. He told Yngwie about me and he agreed that I would be a good option. And that's all, the day before the Masterclass, I got the message saying that I had to go!

I arrived to the theater 1 hour before the show and met Yngwie who was very polite and friendly. He explained me the structure of the masterclass and what he exactly needed from me.

Some time ago, I was asked me to do the same with Bumblefoot's masterclass but it was impossible because I was on tour with Cirse.. This time, I also had a gig but it was very close to the masterclass, so I could do both!

This is how I ended the night.

haha yeah!! the production provided all those amps.

On the other hand, you can see my stage where I just have a Fractal Ax8 and no amps or cabinets.




Thank you mate!

Ok that's what I wondered. So basically he hires a wall of marshall for every city he visits?!

maybe he has a small peenieweenie

hahaha yes, he does (hire amps, don't know about the second thing )

But it seems that he uses only two of those amps.

Def small then

Metallica, then Yngwie. Who's next? .

Wow, that's absolutely awesome Gab!!! You really had an amazing weekend and I'm very happy for you

BTW, when you said "was very polite and friendly" I checked twice the phrase to be sure that you are still talking about Yngwie

I believe in Law of attaction so who knows...





hahaha the producer told me that he was on a good day and he was right.

Now that is "a good day at work"!

Way to go Gab.

hahah exactly!

I don't suppose he let you have a go on his setup there?

No, I didn't play his guitars or amps.

Now that is quite a day!! Meet Yngwie, do a master class with him, then have a big gig. Nice!!
Todd

That's awesome!
Hopefully this will the first of many more opportunities! You totally deserve it

Perfect day!!





Thanks a lot friend!
