Stand up or Guitar god?

I still can't decide!

Best guitar related video I've ever seen on youtube, and the fact that it's of my favourite guitarist is totally unrelated.

Watch, celebrate, laugh and gasp.

First of all i don't know who he is. :lol:

But i like his whammy passage 1.08, seems pretty good to me.

yeah, it was amazing, until the bloody youtube player stopped the video at 9:23 and came up with that related videos thing that scrolls through related videos at the end of a video

anyone else have that problem?

Definitely a Guitar God. Who just happens to be a very funny guy.

I really don't enjoy shred guitar nowadays, but Mattias Eklundh is fantastic, and the humour seems to come through in the music too.

The nice thing is he can actually come up with decent songs too.

The only problem is people are likely to to try and label him as a Zappa wannabe.

Which would be a very unfair thing for them to do (as Zappa was never the only person to have a sense of humour and a fixation for odd subject matter)

I picked up his cd Freak Guitar-The Road Less Traveled last year and it's some very cool stuff. He's a huge Zappa fan so I don't think he'd mind the Zappa-wannabe label

Oh he may not mind that label, bu I think he deserves so much more credit than that :)

I would love to have heard what would have happened if the two of them had worked together <sigh>

Hadn't heard of him but i thought that was great.
especially the sweep bit arround 5 minutes, surely that deliberately sounded like super mario?
