[..YouTube..] hahaha..and someone gave me 2 thumbsdown..wahahaha..

i wonder who that is…

maybe Petruci…………waaaahahahahaha

[..YouTube..] hahahahahahah

[..YouTube..] his fore arms are like….huge

[..YouTube..] Oh John what did you do to yourself. Steroids xD

[..YouTube..] does he look like sylvester stallone…
lol :D…

[..YouTube..] Jeez, when did he become ripped? when I saw him in concert I thought he was fat!

[..YouTube..] have you noticed, every time he plays he stares into your soul and whether your a boy/girl/tree you have an inner desire to have sex with him? yah me neither

[..YouTube..] He’s so sexy…..

[..YouTube..] why the hell did he shave his arms?
guess he is more into working out his body than his guitar skills now…

[..YouTube..] when he was performing in Croatia he was so fat that i couldnt belive!!!But he mega mastered his skills,now he can play with his eyes closed.

[..YouTube..] in studio he only uses his Musicman guitars, Mesa Boogie amp, Mesa Boogie cabs, Boss metal zone, Boss distortion and he gets his basic distortion.. for effects he uses tremolo, phrase shifter and other stuff.. always with Boss compact pedals

[..YouTube..] Im not a big fan of his playing.Pretty boring!

[..YouTube..] when he plays, and he looks into the camera, i feel like a mind-destroying soul is shaping through my body, lol. amazing work.

[..YouTube..] he holds the guitar like a pregnant lady -_- LOL

[..YouTube..] ha ha ha callyjohnwell ha ha ha yeah he was loking just like that,but what can you do// the man likes to eat.

[..YouTube..] hauhauhahahahahahhaa, lmfao, true

[..YouTube..] or… he holds the guitar in the classical fashion where the body of the guitar rests on the left leg… it’s a more natural position for the arms and is supposed to keep your back straight. Petrucci is all about form…

[..YouTube..] …..or…hes holding it like a pregnant lady..

[..YouTube..] thats cause they fuckin rock. boss, marshall and line 6 are the way to go

[..YouTube..] why does the video loop the first step

[..YouTube..] Because it was a F*ck up….

[..YouTube..] why would a pregnant lady play classical style? surely her stomache would just push the guitar off her lap then

[..YouTube..] Why the hell is it repeated twice?

[..YouTube..] he’s the man..he holds the guitar like its supposed to u dick!

[..YouTube..] guitarsterbation!!

[..YouTube..] or maybe he tried to play like u and look cool and then realized he sucked so he did something hes comfortable with and now look how he plays. good luck playing with your guitar at your knees i’m sure you’ll LOOK great.

[..YouTube..] DT ANF JP RULEZ!!

[..YouTube..] DT ANF JP RULEZ!!

[..YouTube..] hola alguno de ustedes sabe de que video son estas lecciones, espero su respuesta, gracias

[..YouTube..] petrucci’s the man

[..YouTube..] learn how to play that good and then talk u peace of Sh!t …

petrucci is the greatest!

[..YouTube..] No hace parte de ningun video para aprender a tocar guitarra o alguna cosa asi, pero solo un cometario, HE IS GOD!.

[..YouTube..] No hace parte de ningun video para aprender a tocar guitarra o alguna cosa asi, pero solo un cometario, HE IS GOD!.

[..YouTube..] Woah calm down it was a joke.

By the way, it would be “Piece” not peace.

And it’s spelt, “Humour” or if you’re American, “Humor”

[..YouTube..] I hate his stuff… not being jealous… I love Dime’s stuff and Zack Wylde’s stuff and so on… lol there’s one thing that this guy’s face reminds me of… he looks like Tom Green here, fucking LoL!

[..YouTube..] I hate his stuff… not being jealous… I love Dime’s stuff and Zack Wylde’s stuff and so on… lol there’s one thing that this guy’s face reminds me of… he looks like Tom Green here, fucking LoL!

[..YouTube..] Zakk Wylde is a horrible guitar player. Seriously he has no skill he just plays the same stupid generic crap for everything he does.

[..YouTube..] dude, the pentatonic and blues scales might be generic crap for you… but even if you have just a little piece of info about scales… you probably know that’s the most common scale on almost every musical genre… and if you say you can play in zack’s style better than he does… post of video of this miracle… otherwise I could careless for you, and won’t respect ya ’til I see that… cya dude..

[..YouTube..] Petrucci is FAR from the greatest. Vinnie Moore, Jason Becker, Shawn lane type players put him to absolute shame. Not even close.

[..YouTube..] Petrucci is FAR from the greatest. Vinnie Moore, Jason Becker, Shawn lane type players put him to absolute shame. Not even close.

[..YouTube..] Not to mention Paul Gilbert is 100 times better than Petrucci. Forgot about him.

[..YouTube..] Not to mention Paul Gilbert is 100 times better than Petrucci. Forgot about him.

[..YouTube..] heres one thing you dont know about zakk hes also a classical guitarist, yes hes accomplished that and hes also theory trained and can play flawlessly, he demonstrated in a video that he could do everything all other guitarists can do, he just chose a style and if that makes him a bad guitarist to you i guess that sucks, i love petrucci though i just thought id point this out

[..YouTube..] i wouldn’t go that far, all guitarists get to a point and then its just about your creative side

[..YouTube..] yum yum muscles. no i’m not gay.

[..YouTube..] i dont care ….

[..YouTube..] Look for him sweep picking, look for him flutter picking, look for him tapping with more than 3 of his fat sausage fingers, look for him doing any of those things and you will be sorely disappointed. Also, I used to be a huge Zakk Wylde fan until I actually learned how to play and found out how easy all of his retarded licks really were. He isn’t a classical guitarist or theory trained to a degree of anything worth menetioning either.

[..YouTube..] HA wow you’re an idiot, blue scale and pentatonic are retarded sub-scales in harmonic minor, and even if they were the most commonly used scales in almost every genre, wouldn’t that make them completely generic like I already said? And why would I look for the respect of someone on the internet, especially one as ignorant as you?

[..YouTube..] I’m pretty sure you are confusing wylde with rhoades. Rhoades WAS a classically trained guitarist who had a heavy theory background. Wylde was just a kid who was obsessed with randy’s playing and knew a bunch of sabbath songs. I’m not saying he’s bad but he is far from the best and is highly overrated.

[..YouTube..] that smell in the air… thats chicken shit, woah dude blues scales an pentatonic scale are retard sub scales in the harmonic minor? einstein must be proud of his grandson(not!) who are you anyway? probably just another retard with issues… either you eat shit for breakfast with a spoon or you’re full of shit… fucking poser…

[..YouTube..] i cant belive you would even put zakk wilds an john petrucci in the same sentance zakk wilds fucking blows after rhodes died that band went to shit then they got a cocky fucking fag who thinks hes the best out there petrucci will run circles around in with one hand. dont get me wrong yea zakk can play but he dont write in a theory way he writes in pentatonics he dont even use modes let alone a key change he sucks sorry dude but thats the truth

[..YouTube..] i cant belive you would even put zakk wilds an john petrucci in the same sentance zakk wilds fucking blows after rhodes died that band went to shit then they got a cocky fucking fag who thinks hes the best out there petrucci will run circles around in with one hand. dont get me wrong yea zakk can play but he dont write in a theory way he writes in pentatonics he dont even use modes let alone a key change he sucks sorry dude but thats the truth

[..YouTube..] False statement.

[..YouTube..] Zakk Wylde doesn’t even use linear pentatonics, he doesn’t use any type of raised pitch, and probably doesn’t understand it, and I also see that you couldn’t come back and tell me you found him doing any of the things I listed. Hm…. sounds like you don’t know what you’re talking about still.

[..YouTube..] no im not putting them in the same category, im one who thinks that everyone has a different style and no guitarist can play their style better than them, petrucci is by far better yes but you still shouldnt rip zakk a new one for playing the way he does

[..YouTube..] dude, I’m 23 I play guitar, piano, and bass since the age of 10, my grand grand father was a musician, as well as my grandfather and my dad, music is in all of me… now as for Zack I know he plays linear stuff, thats not the point here the point is that he plays it real fast and real clean and I bet he plays better than you, and I bet ya you can’t even play something that I consider simple, like the solo from cemetery gates by Pantera….cya dude.

[..YouTube..] dude, if you were talking to me than you’re wrong I have seen that video on one of the editions of guitar world, it was like one ot two years ago, it came on a DVD, still have it here along with hundreds of other dvd’s and stuff…he plays it real fast and goes trough the pentatonic scale and blues scales and make a ton of changes, than he plays some parts slow… yeah that’s the one…

[..YouTube..] WTF!!

[..YouTube..] erm.. yeah wtf,huh.

[..YouTube..] He looks a bit retarded when he says he’s got a loop going.

[..YouTube..] This is the best you can say!!! You’re a douche who wishes he had a GRAIN of his playing expertize!! Now go away!

[..YouTube..] Did it not repeat twice 0:25 and 02:02, then he does the ’shift’ Good nonetheless.

[..YouTube..] hahaha nice resume ruined by “Zack”

[..YouTube..] If you like hearing the same lick around 30,000 times a solo, then yeah, PG is 30,000 times better than Petrucci.

[..YouTube..] If you like hearing the same lick around 30,000 times a solo, then yeah, PG is 30,000 times better than Petrucci.

[..YouTube..] haha he looks funny i think making it look easy

[..YouTube..] pentatonic scale might be the easiest and the most simplest scale but if it’s used right, it can be the most tasteful scale

[..YouTube..] pentatonic scale might be the easiest and the most simplest scale but if it’s used right, it can be the most tasteful scale

[..YouTube..] Are you serious?? That solo is for pussies. Maybe once you start getting into some Rusty Cooley or Paul Gilbert you can come talk to be but you obviously don’t know what a linear pentatonic scale is. Like I said before, I used to really like Zakk Wylde, I had all of his stuff, and then I realized he sucked.

[..YouTube..] Paul Gilbert and Rusty Cooley aren’t better than Petrucci, and Zakks stuff gets a little boring but hes far from sucking at guitar.

[..YouTube..] Paul Gilbert and Rusty Cooley aren’t better than Petrucci, and Zakks stuff gets a little boring but hes far from sucking at guitar.

[..YouTube..] Retard.

[..YouTube..] Retard.

[..YouTube..] retard…

[..YouTube..] Are you serious? They’re easily better. Not that Petrucci isn’t incredible, but how can you say they’re not better?

[..YouTube..] i think it’s a really well written solo, and paul gilbert is probably my favourite, but says himself that he doesn’t really like to use exotic scales, and his fave is the pentatonic. I like petrucci’s use of cool modes etc. He’s got great technique, but has the stage presence of GI Joe. haha.

[..YouTube..] I wasn’t talking about Petrucci, he’s great, but MetalOlive is saying Wylde is better, where all he EVER uses are pentatonics.

[..YouTube..] I wasn’t talking about Petrucci, he’s great, but MetalOlive is saying Wylde is better, where all he EVER uses are pentatonics.

[..YouTube..] Petrucci and Gilbert are sure very very good guitarists, Petrucci´s my idol, but there is no best guitarist in the world. That´s subjective. They are both going along with the best guitarists in the world (with for example Steve Vai). And Zakk Wylde is really just some pentatonic man, although he´s probably a lot better than we are right now.

[..YouTube..] ah, my bad haha. I totally agree in that case, I personally hate Wylde, though his chops are pretty good.

[..YouTube..] ah, my bad haha. I totally agree in that case, I personally hate Wylde, though his chops are pretty good.

[..YouTube..] Rusty Cooley is a wanker… Petrucci-stuff is a lot better written and with feeling.

[..YouTube..] Rusty Cooley is a wanker… Petrucci-stuff is a lot better written and with feeling.

[..YouTube..] You obviously have only seen Cooley on youtube then.

[..YouTube..] fighting on youtube is like racing in the special olympics. even if you win, you’re sill retarded.

[..YouTube..] That’s a horrible analogy you bastard.

[..YouTube..] john is startin to get bulky. i wouldnt say fat, but hes gettin large, like hes been liftin.

where do people get these videos from?

[..YouTube..] john is startin to get bulky. i wouldnt say fat, but hes gettin large, like hes been liftin.

where do people get these videos from?

[..YouTube..] i like his blank stare when he plays lol funny

[..YouTube..] i believe this is from guitar world

[..YouTube..] Yeah I remember reading he lifted every day, he’s gettin buff.

[..YouTube..] i commend your very intelligent observation, perhaps you are an endangered specie in this chaotic guitarists comparison landscape…

[..YouTube..] i commend your very intelligent observation, perhaps you are an endangered specie in this chaotic guitarists comparison landscape…

[..YouTube..] Cooley has some chops. Although I like shred alot I still like it when a guitarist writes a solo with emotion and feel. A la Petruuci, Dave Gilmour, Steve Lukather, Brian May to name a few.

[..YouTube..] that wuznt under a glass moon.

[..YouTube..] no he’s just gettin fat

[..YouTube..] no he’s just gettin fat

[..YouTube..] he started lifting weights and bulked up, nothing wrong with that.

[..YouTube..] his blank stare reminds me of ben stiller from dodgeball…i dunno why…it’s that look that says…yeah im playing guitar…wtf you lookin at.

[..YouTube..] He looks kinda like Steve Austin nowadays…

[..YouTube..] He looks kinda like Steve Austin nowadays…

[..YouTube..] lol now that you mention it………

[..YouTube..] lol now that you mention it………

[..YouTube..] does anybody know what purpose having two pickup selectors is…i was guessing that perhaps its more convenient is some way

[..YouTube..] why the fuck does he repeat it twice
did anyone else notice that

[..YouTube..] why the fuck does he repeat it twice
did anyone else notice that

[..YouTube..] No it’s not.

[..YouTube..] No it’s not.

[..YouTube..] Bad editing I guess… :/

[..YouTube..] Bad editing I guess… :/

[..YouTube..] Does it really matter who is the “best”?
If you think you are a guitarist then you should be practicing instead of wasting your time in this sensless chatter.

[..YouTube..] His guitar has peizo pickups as well as magnetic pickups.

[..YouTube..] His guitar has peizo pickups as well as magnetic pickups.

[..YouTube..] ah i see, thanks a lot

[..YouTube..] Sorry, was insanely lazy when I posted that. The pickup switch switches from 100% peizo, a blend between peizo and magnetic, and 100% magnetic. He puts the peizos straight out to the PA live for his acoustic sounds. Google for more information on them

[..YouTube..] thanks again

[..YouTube..] thanks again

[..YouTube..] I hardly see that as giving any respect to people running the special olympics. “You’re still retarded” makes people with disability seem less human and less worthy than anyone else.

[..YouTube..] he plays so perfect.

damn!

[..YouTube..] he plays so perfect.

damn!

ALLAN HOLDSWORTH is the Most Talented guitarist if all time. Eddie Van Halen even said this.. Holdsworth can outshred anyone. He has the fastest and most fluid legato playing ever seen. The only person who could even come close to Holdsworth was SHAWN LANE… Holdsworth can do it all. He’s beyond incredible. I saw Petrucci in G3 and was not impressed…
