Interesting in a mind numbingly boring way :-P Yes his technique is impressive, if a little noisey, i personally wouldn't like to play that fast, mainly cause it seems that all the people i've seen play at that sort of speed lose all creativity, song writting ability and origionality.

I'd much rather listen to this guy..

His technique is amazing, apparently he could play two scales and once whilest maintaining a bass line.
Makes it sound musical aswell, even though he's not very liked in the classical comunity, i still think he rules.

Edit - Check the scaler run at the 4 min 20 mark in this Kazuhito clip, rather insane if you ask me.

That first guy looks like a fanny, also i don't know why you need to play that fast.

Edit: the second guy also looks like a fanny, not how he looks i mean when he is playing!

Wowser.... Adam Fulara takes guitar gurning to a whole new level!

His mother must of fed him with a catapult.

He looks like the bar-steward child of Cliff Burton and Dweezill Zappa.. but he is good.

He's even thrusting as he is gurning!!

Better than Ron Jeremy!

I found him earlier when I was browsing luthiers for a possible custom build, and I found the rek guitars site with a picture of the guitar he plays with a link to him on you tube. When I first saw the guitar it looked unplayable because the necks are so close together - but then after following the link i understood

gotta love these "fastest player" threads.

Seriousley though i could bash a fretboard with my hands and toes at the the same time = 20 notes with one stroke and i could do it pretty quick I rekon, but it would sound like cr@p :D

Anyway I rekon any faster than say 16th sextuplets at 140bpm is too fast and this is what most shredders use as their upper speed without being sloppy.

Well as John Petrucci always says,

'If you can't play over 8,000,000,000 notes per second then just give up, because you simply arn't good enough, put your guitar on ebay or something because you will never be as good as me'
