Edit 4/29: HOLY CRAP THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR 100K VIEWS! THAT IS ASTRONOMICAL!
Edit 2/11/23: OML! Thank you all so much for 500K! This has grown so much and I couldn’t be happier!
Filmed on a slightly older iPhone so there was a slight decrease in quality when received via airdrop.
I took guitar lessons 51 years ago and I never got much better , congratulations
Time really flies. Thanks for watching and I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Shhhhhh.... To the crowd trying to keep up. Your riffs are great. Can you play an entire song, with a live band?
@@ikarooz Yeah probably. I practice with a metronome and backing tracks a lot. I’d love to preform with an actual band but with all the COVID stuff I haven’t been able to.
@Gene Yuss Gamma = great band. Gamma 3 is one of my favorite albums especially with songs like "Whats gone is gone".
The other contestants listen to him and accept the fact that this guy has spent hundreds of hours locked in his bedroom practicing scales and arpeggios. They recognize the pure talent through self sacrifice. Just hard work. Just like studying for hours to have an exam. But this guy gives pleasure to all of his audience. An algebra test just ain't the same.
Thank you so much! All of what you said is completely true. For almost 8 years now, I’ve locked myself up in my room practicing until I nail what I try to practice. Which does sound depressing now that I think about it, but I was willing to choose passion over friendship. I knew if I fully dedicated myself to music, I knew that it would affect my social skills, making friends and even keeping friends. After all of this amazing support, I don’t regret any second of it!
He was second place, a paper plane buider took the first place ha.
@@gerardorockerman69 That plane must’ve shot mini paper rockets too.
@@arturogardunoguitar I think it's awesome that you have such amazing drive and passion for music. However I think you should also keep maintaining relationships as a priority. Please don't take this as me hating on you, or telling you to give up your dreams because that's genuinely not what I'm saying. I think you're a beast at guitar and you should never underestimate your talent. Just don't let it keep you from socializing and creating memories/relationships with people. I promise there's room for both.
All that said this performance was killer and I think you're extremely talented. Never stop doing what you love!
@@arturogardunoguitar lets hear some Jason Becker next.. You are fantastic, really beautiful. 💞
People are going all nuts over tequila but the first delay part was 1000 times more impressive and advanced
100%, that was some Satch right there
Because most people are fucking stupid and generic meaning they can’t appreciate the difficulty of something
Big sur moon!
Buckethead!
Yes. Let that be a lesson.
“Impressive” riffs WILL impress guitarists.
Catchy Riffs will captivate the masses and make you money.
I heard it for the first time not long ago…
Imagine the 12th fret and above..
That’s the high register area.
Now imagine everything from the nut to the 7th fret…that’s the CASH register.
Hearing a bunch of teenagers lose it at Crazy Train warms my old, dead heart
Real music is being rediscovered!
@Frozen Pizza do you get a badge for watching the gate?
@@irishwristwatch2487 this is the literal coldest reply i've ever seen someone get hit with you are my idol
@frozenpizza5242 eat your pizza then change that tam pen
I absolutely love how NO ONE clapped, or said a WHOO or NOTHING when you were doing Big Sur Moon with beautiful scaling, arpeggios from hell and delay work…. But screamed at crazy train 😂😂😂🤦
Edit: you absolutely KILLED it! Don’t ever give up playing guitar, I wish I could meet up with you and we could make some music happen!
Thank you so much! Yeah my mindset was to play the simple popular stuff that would help secure the win. But I knew I’d have to step it up to make it go big so I played Big Sur Moon first.
I absolutely thought the same thing. Randy Rhoads will live forever!
@@607rocket Eddie Bravo plays Jiu Jitsu, not guitar.
WHOO Broooo
Because nobody gives a rats ass about "arpeggios from hell" and "delay work", only music theory geeks...geek out over that stuff. People just want to hear something they can bob their head and dance/sing along to, it's not rocket science but for some reason people want to make it that
I guess you guys aren't ready for that, yet. But your kids are gonna love it.
no god no...
@@ccTheMilfHunter yes god yes...
Back to The Future!
right on Marty!
No, their parents
That cover of Big Sur Moon was epic!!!
Buckethead is jealous for sure ….
It's hard to get the delay timing right but he was dead on😎🤘
Any girl on that concert who recognized your first piece, is a keeper. Bravo and NEVER stop brother 👊
If I find any girl that likes buckethead as much as I do. I am never ever looking back.
Eddie Van Halen was the last of the original Guitar Heroes. He's probably looking down at you with a big grin on his face. But he's also probably thinking, "C'mon young fella ... take it to the next level". Stay true to his legacy, take what he gave us and use it as inspiration to create something new. We all stand on the shoulders of the giants that came before us so that we can see a little further than they could. Best Wishes to you from the Land Down Under :)
Alex Lifeson: 😐
Eddie Van Halen flows thru the veins of all young guitarists --- he is literally their lifeblood
Eddie Van Halen may be a legendary rock guitarist, but he certainly isn’t the last of guitar greats.
@@val13c59 true
@@val13c59 I said "ORIGINAL" Guitar Heroes. There are dozens of guitar greats even to this day. Guys who followed EVH, like Satriani and Vai are incredible musicians. But they like most guitar greats are more evolutionary rather than revolutionary imho.
I feel like we'll see this kid again in an even bigger spotlight one day. Bad ass!! Good job!!
Thanks! We’ll see!
The clinical perfection on Big sur moon was GODLY
1:40 : (Girls in the audience start to go crazy, screaming, whooping and he got mobbed after his performance)
Arturo: "Being such a shredmaster takes up a lot of my time ladies so form an orderly queue" 😄
Stellar performance Arturo keep practising those different styles you'll be a better musician for it and you're already well on your way. You obviously have a lot of discipline and dedication to your craft and in the words of ACDC for those about to rock, I salute you!
O
Amazing
Don’t ever stop playing guitar. You have been blessed by God with an amazing talent and the wherewithal to develop it. Truly great work.
Or he made a trip down to the crossroads.
I worked to get where I was at. No crossroads needed for hard work. 😉
Starts With Buckethead Big Sur Moon ! Blows me away! Great Job Raturo !
You don't see/hear a lot of Buckethead covers. Great to see a young person playing his music
@@franksergiovanni1981 no body can play them thats why lol
You can tell the first section was his favorite part of the performance to play. My favorite to listen to.
I like how you put Buckethead in there with the rest of the G.O.A.T.s, he is mos def one of them!
He's no where NEAR bucketheads level🤣🤣🤣
@@jethrokeys1438 He didn't say that disphit.
Holy shit, that Big Sur Moon cover was fantastic! Great job!
Thank you!
Big Sur Moon was surreal! Ty for starting it off with the most goated track on the list 🥰🌙
I haven't seen many other people play Big Sur Moon, well done and great choice!
Thank you!
Ab-So-Lute-Ly freakin' phenomenal.... *Bows down before a master shredder*....
Dude killed big Sur moon, Buckethead would be proud 🤘
Every guitar master "up above" is looking down and saying "damn, son, play it hard & let the devil take the hindmost!!!!".😃 YOU DIDN'T JUST KILL IT ~ YOU SLAUGHTERED IT!!!!
The Edge called, he wants his delay pedal back LOL....great job!
That big sur moon was astounding, its sad to see that no one knew it but then again Buckethead is basically unknown to most people.
He’s got the pedal and everything this man was a born legend, im just starting to learn and from all the knowledge I’ve gathered he’s got some skills ft
Portage lakes here ...you rip !!! Thanks .
Thanks for watching!
Great player vh buckethead classic tunes lots of styles and playing in only a few minutes
Thank you!
Really good. Wow. When I was in high school anyone who could play a hamfisted, pentatonic impro was considered a god. I see the bar has since been raised.
Yeah the bar has been raised much higher. So much so that people consider this performance basic or even boring.
Talent always seem to find an audience. Clearly this guy is going to be a professional musician and this should be his audition tape.
……And now here’s Timmy on his flute playing “Mary Had a Little Lamb.”
That's exactly what I was thinking...if I had to follow him I would have run for the hills!😁
By far one of the funniest comments on this video.
It's actually quite difficult to throw a bunch of riffs together into one fluid piece of music but show off every style you kick major ass playing in only a few minutes. Thousands upon thousands of hours and some people play their entire lives and not get near this good at everything.,
Thanks so much!
@@arturogardunoguitar smacking
It’s already been done
This extremely talented young man was raised right!! Great taste in jams.
That’s Because his generation of music has no guitar solos. I’m being facetious, but it’s kinda true.
this was the song that made me a Buckethead fan
True fame. Stays with you forever, you inpressed your peers, your equals, they know you hold the power!
Dude this was killer! I’ve been playing for 25 years now, and started when I was a freshman in high school, where I fronted a metal band, so I KNOW that doing what you just did, and ALONE no less, was so freaking gutsy and takes a lot of heart and calm to not let your adrenaline run away with you.
You’re a great player as far as technical ability, but I absolutely LOVE your energy during the performance! You’re soooo hyped up during it, and the way that you’re pacing at the end is tooootally something I can relate to! Nice work man, this was a lot of fun to watch.
**Sorry for my superfluous usage of exclamations. . . .I have a slight addiction to hyperbole LoLLL**
Thank you for the awesome response! I’m on my 8th year of playing but this was my very first live performance. I got so focused on my playing that I almost forgot there was 50+ people in the audience! Im very relieved (and surprised) that I didn’t screw up at all.
I’M PROUD OF YOU
True! The feelings of failure in front of friends is WAY worse than complete strangers at a bar setting, etc. You have to actually see these people the next day! Lol
@@FranchiseSIX5 The stakes are much higher when your friends are in the audience and are even higher when the popular girls are too.
Someone needs to sign this kid, he is on his way to being one of the best! Congratulations
I was blown away in so many ways... fantastic talent you have there... but the fact that high school aged kids actually knew these songs gives me hope that good music will once again return to our culture! Thank you for bringing a smile to my face today! Eddie Van Halen is looking down smiling at you for that killer ending!
Feel good in knowing Eddie's legacy flows on in these up and coming guitarists!
Skillz!!!!💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
your opening part was creative and the best you nailed that beginning man. yoru awesome
This is dope. I love Buckethead.
He’s my biggest inspiration!
@@arturogardunoguitar did you see Bucket when he came to the Agora in 2019?
Unfortunately I haven’t. Seeing him live is my biggest priority.
Great job man. You're just begining a brilliant career...
I Salute you from Curitiba, south of Brazil.
Thank you! Best regards from Northeast Ohio!
Dude pur a huge smile on my face. Thanks for that!
So cool that he opens with Buckethead~~ but slow it it down a bit!
Wow… Big Sur Moon was absolutely phenomenal!
Wow the big Sur moon IS AWESOME!!!! Respect:)
Big Sur Moon sounded incredible! That song is one of my favorites.
100% Legit. Don't lose sight of your goals, this is your path.
Great Job.
Sincerely,
- Random Middle Aged Man from Canada
Thank you!
Great show! Loved the Big Sur Moon cover.
There are so many bad talent show eruption covers. This is not one of them. Excellent playing and tone. Wow.
Thank you so much! That actually means a lot!
He is very good. I hope he keeps on playing. 👍👍👍
the delay part is gold
big sur moon was the most impressive thing here, thats freaking awesome
Brother. You are one of the best in the world. Remember that and play like it's your last day on earth and you smash it and get to the top and change yours and family's lives brother. Your fantastic dude. Natural. Not one bad note.
What can I say...but...well done...very well done...don't stop playing...
Keep up the hard work!! If you choose, This can take you amazing places! I'm about fifty years ahead of you, and I KNOW I don't need to preach about the obvious things, but consider yourself preached! All the BEST!
Thank you so much!!
Wow! Magnificent!
One word...killer!
Nice job, that was fun to watch. Thanks and keep up the good work..
The best compliment I can give is...... there's hope for rock and roll in the future! Well done!!!!!!!
That was awesome. Brings me back to my HS days. My buddies did Rush covers. Such great memories.
I’m glad it brought back memories! I literally started my freshman year in the year COVID became a thing. So I’ll have some memories myself.
Outstanding!
youtube recommended has never failed to disappoint
Big Sur Moon!!!!!
Yeah dude the fact you open with buckethead is insane! Good shit!
Thank you! Glad you liked it!
At least you're not playing the shit that you hear on the radio today! I'm amazed to hear kids playing ACTUAL MUSIC on guitars in the modern era of talentless hacks with keyboard synthesizers and drum machines. ROCK ON BROTHER!!
Awesome!!!!
This kid was in high school? Looks and sounds like a pro -- like he's been performing in front of crowds for 30 years. Well done.
Thank you so much! Means a lot! 😁
And they say the new generations don’t appreciate rock. You are a shining beacon of hope, good rock music will continue to thrive in future generations. Amazing vid man, I hope I can play as well as you one day. 🤘😎
Big Sur Moon and Eruption were both insanely good. 🌒🌋
So I accidentally stumbled on your video and I'm glad I did. Great job! Keep on rockin.
Wow! Wow! Wow!
That dotted eight delay. Amazing.
It can be your best friend but also can be be your worst enemy.
Didn’t expect to get Buckethead to open. Wow.
Simply put, this kid actually shreds with the best of em…
Fantastic. Great to see the younger generation rocking out to the classics! 🤘
Great job man !!! ✔️👍😁
A absolute great sound out of a little practice amp. Who needs walls of Marshalls. It wouldn’t make this guy sound any better than he is in this video.
You gotta work with what you got! It’s amazing what that can do!
@@arturogardunoguitar Amen my brother. I swear my little fender practice amp sounds better than my hundred watt Marshall and 4x12 cab, just not as loud.
@@briangisler1981 sometimes pushing those little tube amps kicks ass.
@@rockinron3215 Indeed.. just mic it and put it through the monitors on stage, that’s all you need. No more back problems carrying them Marshall cabs. Been there done that.
Who? Any band after adding a bass and a drummer plus maybe rhythm and then PAs. That amp, solo on a theater stage? All you need.
Gave this a like before even finished the video that delay got me from the first few notes
Fucking epic 🤘🙏🎸 god bless all of the guitar players that don’t know how to not live there gift and put all they have into it
A lot of us play guitar but few truly play with all of there heart
that eruption tone was on point good stuff
Guitar..... the King of instruments
Great work man!!!
you killed it. I have been playing since 1985 and couldn't pull a lot of that stiff off that well
More than a bit of a talent. Fantastic. Good luck.
Yeah usually with these high school talent show videos you see kids that are good..for teens. This dude is just straight up impressive
Mad skills
Hey man! Been playing guitar for 25+ Years and you definitely got what it takes. Keep it up!
Man you were AMAZING! I wish I was actually there to see you play!
Great job great talent !!!!!!
Legitimately incredible. I don't have the words to describe how impressive that was. Not just the playing, but the confidence, especially for a high schooler. Holy shit
I can tell from the head stock that your guitar is in fact a Schecter guitar. But that is beside the point. The point is you are f-ing great. You also interact with your audience and that is one of the best thing that any musician can have. I love your eruption so much man. Rock is out \m/.
BRAVO
The one talent show I wish I was there for
As a fellow guitarist that hurt so much when no one gave you kudos for Big Sur Moon. They don’t realize the amount of effort and skill it takes to learn that and the amount of work it takes to dial in that perfect tone and delay. But that performance rocked bro you definitely deserved that first place win 💯👊🏼
Man thank you! Really appreciate it!
And to think you taught yourself how to play is amazing. Keep up the great work! Don't keep your talent just in Stow...there's a big world out there just waiting for you!
I’m looking forward to what the future has in store for me! Thanks for watching!
THIS KID HAS A CAREER IN VIEW!!!!
i know what its like trying to learn something then not stopping till u finally complete it. this shows your dedication. really well done!
Thank you! Really appreciate it!
Wowwww..This Is crazy!!Mad respect for you,so many sacrifices..
I appreciate Big Sur moon being in here, you killed it bro
Absolutely Amazing
Holy hell! Saw you in the Akron Beacon Journal and then found the article on Yahoo News! I hope you have an amazing career! Shared and subscribed.
