Andy James plays "Diary of Hell's Guitar" for EMGtv 

hard to find word to describe how good Andy is...

This guy makes metal sound godly...

his technique is the absolute best when it comes to perfect shredding *flawless* and 2nd, he has soul in his playing - listen to "the wind that shakes the heart", "lost without you", 'bella's song" and "what lies beneath". 3rd, to those who says that his fast ripping solos has no soul, listen to how he phrases within those fast shredding. not only is his shred is unbelievably clean and articulate, but he also synchronizes it with melodies and harmonies.though I'm a metal head, I also don't like meaningless fast shred without proper soul foundation . Anyone can play fast if he puts his heart in it but to create a music with it is something that takes more than just practice from textbook which Andy has excel it.

I don't always get my face melted off but when I do... I watch @EMGpickupsTV.

People this is metal it has it's own type of soul, it is agrresive ,fast and heavy but that is a style that is not mean't for everybody and in my opinion andy james is one of the best players to ever describe it

Strongly believe this guy is the best on earth

I've been watching this video for years. This one has had a huge impact on my picking technique. Andy has a very subtle and nuanced picking hand/technique. I have learned a lot by watching him play.

He's gonna be a legend!! Truly brilliant performance by Andy!! Mind blowing!!!

Brilliant shredding at its finest this guy is so on top of his game its just mind blowing what a master of the instrument!!! Epic!!!

How in hell's name does this guy keeps getting better???

It's always good to see new Andy James EMGtv videos. Mindblowing player!

AJ = bad azz, fuk yeah! \m/

Andy is out of this world on the shredometer. No human word could be used to describe his speed, accuracy and consistency. It is truly incredible!

Emg: hey wanna play a song live to promote pickups? AJ: sure pal Busts out one of his hardest songs

very unique style! he's amazing, I wish my fingers would work that way

one of the best in my time, he's mesmorizing

He can't hit a wrong note. Everything is just perfection. Goddamn

This neck pickup sounds so fuckiiiiiiiiiiiiiing good !

The first break, oh my god. The phrasing is phenomenal !!!!

Who needs porn stars when you have this guy!!!

never ceases to amaze me

This song is absolutely insane!!

I like the fact, that he's rocking an LTD as opposed to a ESP.

This intro blow my mind !!

Andy James!!!...Badass heavyrock/Metal shred maestro!!!yeah!!!

This is definitely my favorite song by him

brings it back to Metallica

Andy, hero.

Flawless technique and execution! Damn your good Andy!

Quite an unsual feeling on this one, compared to other James songs. You can absolutely tell Andys signature style of playing and sometimes his characteristic licks break through the air. But I miss the typical down-to-earth way of mixing shred and emotional playing that Andy does so incredibly well.

Fav thus far

Without Words!!!! Extreme!!!!!

Hell yeahh!!!Andy James is the Best! Greetings from KK Sabah🇲🇾🤘🏼👊🇲🇾🤘🏼🤘🏼

That wall of guitars, man... so thick. So meaty. So HEAVY.

Andy is AMAZING!! The string skipping part on the intro reminded me of "Universal Mind" from Liquid Tension Experiment. Good stuff!

is he cyborg or something?

2023 and i still don’t understand how he can play that song without a mistake,andy is not human💀😈

Ok when is the 7-string version of his signature coming out!? I need it and I need it NOW.

Geeze, I thought that with that title and Andy playing sooooo fast that the fretboard was going to catch fire!

Just awesomely arranged chromatic sounding track!!! Bravo :D

Do you guys know if this is on spotify or something I've been trying to find this track to listen to daily🤤🤤🤤🔥🔥🔥🔥 Andy is a beast!!!!! Listen to this every morning walking up😎😝🤘🤙🤟

Crazy and Incredible as usual \m/!!!

Love that part at 0:52 , sounds so dark to me \m/

0:00 - 4:50 CLIMAX

no tapping?

amazing playing, amazing song, damn i need to brush up on my lead guitar skills!!

World's best guitarist.

FINAL BOSSZ; GO

i have a new title for this track: "my fingers destroyed" or "my fingers never die" WOOOOW incredible solo incredible perfection

I love Andy and far be it from me, a non-guitar player to criticize, but when I get the idea of Hell's anything I want those scary dark minor chords. That being said this is still bad ass and Andy James forever. 🤘

1:26 most epic scream bends ever!!!

Flawless techique, jaw dropping! And finally, after so many times I've listened to thos song I found a fuck up! There should be at least a few in songs like this, but Andy is a god, and he's trying to msk it. A SECOND AFTER 4:19

Damn !!!!

Andy is amazing at progressive rock guitar. Great player in that style. Of course, the guitar master Mr. Steve Morse is a savant in at least 5 styles, granting him my vote for best overall, hands down. Hard to argue that, I think, for any true guitar aficionado. I would love to see Any show his talent in other styles, (acoustic, flat picking, Celtic, banjo style, etc.). My opinion in no way negates the fact that Andy James is a premier picker. I love it! Tear it up Andy!

Oh, so some of you who judges Andy you are obviously guitar players, you know maybe 10% Andy's playing knowledge's approximately and tell his playing has no soul..hahah! you know nothing, okay? :D

0:41 never gets boring... and 1:25 also

Right up there in my favorites with Angel Vivaldi.

God of guitar

Andy, you're a fucking god!

Holy fuck

He seems like he only cares about playing super fast, but at least he sounds good doing it. Some people sound really bad at that, but he does a good job at making a tune that varies slow melody and fast chaos. And the occasional fast melody 👍

He’s just about the best…. He’s right there with Batio

Why is this beast of a song not on ITunes!, I hope esp put this 7 string version of andy's signature guitar into production :D
