Love Jess Lewis's feel, she plays like a seasoned veteran

Yeah, she's great. I love her wonderful slippery thing.
It wasn't a mistake, it was chromaticism, I swear.

Seriously? :/
I can't stand her.
1) Horrendous Tone.
2) This video was not impressive at all to me and her ones that are technically impressive are just random w**kery.
3) Horrendous Tone.
4) The fact that shes probably the most famous female guitarist on youtube. There are far, far better ones and in my opinion it's undeserved.
5) Horrendous Tone.
6) shitee taste in guitars.
7) Horrendous Tone.
8) Lifeless Vibrato (sounds better than some peoples vibrato, It just isn't very good either).
9) Horrendous Tone.

I don't hate her... but I do...
I mean, She's good... but she really isn't...

P.S. sorry about all my grumpy posts in the last few days, I'm not really in a good mood and  find that the best remedie is usually to let it all out... :P

Anyway, It's all personal opinion. I just really don't like her.

See, now, the girl in the OP is a good guitarist, and rather than start some sort of argument type thing (apparently not everyone likes them) by pointing out the fact that shes female has $%&# all to do with anything, I thought I'd better leave well enough alone.

But she sucks, and people clearly think shes better because shes pretty.

Sloppy, terrible timing, cr@p phrasing, the tone is rubbish but more worryingly all her mistakes are still showing through what amounts to little but delay, reverb and some papery top end.

Now, I dont mean to be mean (I dont go out of my way to put down poor male guitarists either), but get a $%&#ing grip. Youre hearing that playing through a tit-filter, in your own mind.

:drink:

Happy that someone agrees with me :D

And I'd like to change some of what I said.
Watching some more of her videos, nothing she does is even very technically impressive yet it's still random w**kery and played sloppily enough to not be masked by ridiculous amounts of delay.
And I totally agree that her phrasing is horrific.
Also.... She uses the Floyd so much that she should really learn how to use it properly. Maybe watch a few Vai videos?? When she uses it, it sounds choppy and she rests it when the notes are out of key.

What I don't agree with though, is the tit filter thing...
I don't think that she's pretty at all and unless people like completely different girls from me...
Her eyes, nose and mouth are disproportionate towards each other and don't fit her face proportionately, she has a cr@p hair style and wears horrendous clothes. I don't think it's because she's "pretty" :lol:
I think it's just the fact that she's a girl that plays guitar and uploads her videos in HD, by the dozen. If it looks professional it gives a far more professional feeling, whereas the girl that played eruption is filmed with a cr@p camera and facing the other way. It isn't pleasing to watch, only to listen to.

...so you insist that you dont think she sucks because you dont think shes good looking?

I did read you post, I wasnt talking about or to you when I said about the tit-filter ;)

Tit-bias is more appropriate anyway. The cognitive bias to view anything in a more positive light if accompanied by tits. Even implied tits. Advertisers, and record labels for that matter, have known about this for years and years. Its one of the laws of stupidity (alas that one is near-unique to men).

She sucks. And not in a good way.

MDV + Itamar101 --- AGREED 100%!!

I had to hold myself back from launching into a diatribe against this "guitarist" last night and then saw new posts today and was dreading reading some sycophantic praise of this toneless w**kery...

You guys are great.

I called her a "guitarist" in a genderless sense because judged on that alone she ain't no great shakes and you guys have mentioned some of her flaws already.

Ho hum.. loads of that on youtube so why get irate?

BECAUSE OF ALL THE PUSSYBEGGING COMMENTS FROM GUYS UNDER HER VIDEOS!

Jeezz... it's PATHETIC.

She's a f**king dog anyway.

Umm... I'm not sure I understand what you mean here, but what I mean is that the fact that she has tits doesn't make her any better in my eyes. I think that the main reason she is one of the more famous female guitarists on youtube is because she has high quality records, in comparison to home videos filmes on an iPhone.
Tit-bias is more appropriate anyway. The cognitive bias to view anything in a more positive light if accompanied by tits. Even implied tits. Advertisers, and record labels for that matter, have known about this for years and years. Its one of the laws of stupidity (alas that one is near-unique to men).

:lol:

But I understand what you mean here and it is probably the case that the "tit-bias" effects some people, but in this case it doesn't effect me.

She's alright, not very impressive and not Pro level by any stretch,but the fans irritate me a lot more than she does.

Yep. Its the 'fans'.

Brainded, deaf morons.

I dont mind too much that good guitarists that happen to be female get a disproportionate amount of attention because they're female (like most in this thread), because they are at least good guitarists. There are thousands of male guitarists as good and better that dont get the level of recognition they do, but ho-hum, the talents there, so its fine I suppose.

I dont mind that bad guitarists exist (we all were and are to some degree or in some area), and it doesnt even bother me that bad guitarists make youtube vids.

It bothers me that the fact that shes a girl with a guitar overrides the fact that she cant play the bloody thing in so many peoples perception. Its embarrassing to me that I share the names 'guitarist' and 'man' with these imbeciles.

And it should be embarrassing to the guitarists that happen to be female as well. If I were them I'm damned sure I'd want my skills to be respected because for what they are, not be seen as far better than they are because of tit-bias/pussybegging.

Anyway. Some good playing. (A shame that the original tracks in there, but what shes doing is clearly separate and audible).

She still has cretinous fans, btw. But shes actually good.

MDV, though I don't personally like the "modem connecting" music style I think she is great and talented.

What I like most though is that she is skilled and having FUN!  PDT_003

Although this is great and she's really talented I also can't help thinking would she be able to do this in a horrid northern sweaty pub with people who are abusive and be able to cope well.
