*Do you think Guthrie Govan the best guitarist in the world?* 🤯
yes
I like Guthrie but I also like late great Allan Holdsworth. It's hard to say if any of the two guitarist is the best but these two definitely have a vast music vocabulary!
RIP Allan Holdsworth 🎸

I would say he’s probably the “most accomplished” guitarist in the world. It’s hard for me to call him “the best” when there’s a handful of other guitarists I’d rather listen to. Max Ostro, Julian Lage, and Jeff Beck just to provide a few examples. I guess my main issue with Guthrie is that it’s just too damn much. He just overplays too much for me. Although Max has learned a lot from Guthrie, I feel he is more refined and smooth. Less alien shred and chicken picking. I prefer the tone from his light touch. Sometimes less really can be more. 🤷🏻♂️
There are so many, with different styles: it makes no sense to claim there is a "best one"... And music is not a competition.
As usual… speechless. I don’t think enough people honestly realize what a gift it is to hear this man. I know people will argue about the goat of guitarist, but if there was ever a such title to be given out I just don’t see how it wouldn’t be Guthrie, it would blow people away if they even understood half of what this man is honestly capable of, I’ve played guitar and been in music for 25 years, I’ve heard 98 percent of everyone there is, the popular guys down to the guys hardly no knows who can shred off the fret board.
But in terms of totality, Guthrie can play every single style, not just play and imitate the greats in their respective genre, but then play something that outshines everyone because of how unique and different, and how soulful his playing hits you while also blowing you away while thinking… how is this possible. His chicken pickin is very good, his classical perfect, jazz is unreal, his blues and more fusion rock stuff is crazy, and if he want to play heavy that’s not a problem, and lastly I’ve never seen someone improvise on first takes and play something that most of the greats couldn’t come up with in a week.
Well said!
the only people I've heard hate on him are the bluez lawyerz
I rather listen to mark ribot 😅
Imagine casually walking into a small nightclub one night and seeing "guitar jesus" sitting on stage. :O
Wish I'll get this lucky one day 😭
This is a cover of Work Song by Cannonball Aderley for those wondering :)
I missed the Aristocrats one year because i was hospitalized and i laid there the night of the show visualizing that band jamming out. I really hope they come around again. Guntrie has so many styles he has mastered , fabulous guitarist.
That was genuinely outstanding!!!!Guthrie is a phenomenal guitarist!The best on the planet I believe!
Jesus Christ the rhythm playing alone....GOAT
Was a great evening to be part of. Very chill, great musicians and good beer!
What an excellent solo!
And the call & response with the saxophone player was great
Outstanding!!
Wow !! More brilliance !!! Thanks to all for sharing this - magnificent, timeless, so full of soul . Such smoke camouflaged skill - the sax is incredible , yes the call and response - 🙏🙏🙏🙏 ear candy !
I have to see Guthrie live at least once in my life. One of most brilliant and wonderful guitarists to ever see this earth.
Ive been lucky enough to see him 4x and met him once. Very humble dude. Ans obviously amazing guitarist/musician.
I've watched him thrice and met him once. Really cool dude
Thank you for sharing this, really amazing :)
Glad you enjoyed it! Zak is really an exceptional musician too
Incredible talents ❤️
No doubts. I have heard a lots.
I wouldn’t say he is the best because I might not heard something crazier from someone else(who know😂), but his songs, improvisation,
Philosophy in music are the best damn things that I have ever heard.
It always inspires me.
The best guitarist that I have ever seen ❤
Music should never be a competition...but yes - he is the best!
I didn’t realize how versatile the guy is. To call him a rock guitarist is an insult.
This is the moment you have to realise that Guthrie can play each kind of genre perfect!🎯
nutzzzz!!! just nutzzzzz!! to think this is improv blows my mind !!
Awesome. Even good audio. Thanks.
We aim to please 🤘
yes
Wish I would have been there❤
Guy is from another planet
No doubt
Gutri continua incrível , sensível e musical , amo o som dele .
Envy how available his club performances are for those in the local area.
I imagine this must have been what it was like for people watching Liszt. Even his comping is just superb. Astounding talent.
Yes.
Always amazing. Such an incredibly versatile player. Anyone know what he’s using for his bass sound? OC3?
Oh yeah.
Who talks through a performance like this 😂
Some people aren’t able to “hear” music. They don’t know they are pissing on the Mona Lisa. So, they talk because they are bored because “nothing is going on”, just some music.
How frequently do they play in Chelsmford? It’s 30 mins from me I’d love to go!
Pretty frequently. I'd say you're better off following Zak Barrett to get a heads up on these gigs
Chops? Yes. But overall I think EJ is the best. Whether he’s playing blues, rock, jazz or country, the dude is on point and has his own sound. And throw in the piano! 🤘🏼
He's playing the bass line on a regular guitar, right?
no question guthrie govan is a genius, he does things on the guitar that defies physics..
Holy moly... off the scale.
Pretty sick guitarist!
It's called chromatic.... But for real, he is tha GOAT in my books!
Curious if anybody can ID Guthrie's pedalboard? seems like he went full digital now.
Anyway, crazy as always, and Zak Barrett is one of a kind as well!
Yea he did a Rig Rundown video in 2022 and I believe he's now using the Fractal Audio FM9 (czcams.com/video/vmxFIkN_m8M/video.html)
Work song :)
Now if we could get Vince Lee (Plymouth) to join in too....
I'll have to check him out!
Yes, the greatest. I happened to meet him and got his autograph. Jealous? You should be.
There's nothing "crazy" about Mr Govan's guitar playing here. He's doing standard stuff at a very high level of accomplishment. Mr Govan is, among other things, a superb, world class improvisor.
Who are these idiots talking through this performance? "Hey, let's go check out Guthrie Govan at a small, intimate venue, & yak & yammer thorough the entire performance, because it's really all about us!" These oblivious boneheads should be forced to gargle with Sani-Flush, prior to an application of crazy glue lipstick for the lot of them. Bloody hell!
I'd especially enjoy hearing Mr Govan play non-tempered scales in free time, sitting in with Evan Parker, Mette Rasmussen, Barry Guy, and Mark Sanders.
Thank you Essex Recording Studios for posting this great clip. CHEERS!
Wtf
This is a simulation of being a jazz guitarist, but it will definitely convince any, more rock and metal audiences, who think that playing any chord with a 7th or a 9th, is jazz.
Guthrie's basslines here are good, but of course sticking only in the very basic stuff of course. This is basically just fast rhythm n blues. But to each their own. The sax guy is actually jazzing it up here, he is the jazzer.
Personally, i never get into these " jukebox" players that simulate other styles- Even Danny Gatton, the master that he was, was just like this, a mimic. Guthrie is good, but people are licking his hole at this point. Everyone is always looking for some " master" player that can do everything. Well they can't.
Jack of all trades, master of none.
Guthries more like a rock fusion player. Im not sure if anyones ever really tried to see him in a pure jazz way
'This is a simulation of being a jazz guitarist'. No its not, and you took way too long to say nothing about what you consider jazz. Instead, you seemed to go with the classic internet contrarian position, 'I'm the ultimate arbiter of what is and what isn't jazz, so you guys are dumb'. Perhaps this is what constitues 'edgy' in 2024.
I think he's a versatile player that just enjoys playing and fusing his style with whoever he happens to be playing with. In this case, he's alongside a jazz saxophonist
This is the correct answer. It's two incredibly accomplished and proficient musicians playing music together, in a "jazzy style" if you will. Yes he plays a walking bass line, throws in some chromaticism and extended chords, with a guitar, effects and a playing style that might not fit in the "trad jazz box". Must suck to be stuck in a box though.@@EssexRecordingStudios
I find it odd that one can get salty for people liking something they dont like as much... thats like berating someone for liking spicy curry because you think curry should only be mild.
I think this ignores how subjective and personal music is (just like curry). No one person can define what "Jazz Master" is supposed to be i think, its up to the listeners to decide and thats totally fine! It would be boring to have 1 definition of "mastered" music we all have to follow under threat of someone taking our heads off...
No, I really believe Shawn Lane was the best...RIP
Not the best in the world for sure
Hes the best that has ever lived
And meanwhile Taylor Swift plays 3 notes on a acoustic guitar and she's heard by 99% of the planet as a guitar goddess.
Very good point. Hype is everything in "popular" music
yes
