Chops 1 

I remember sitting in my room in the early 2000s coming up with the craziest licks on Guitar Pro and letting them play at ridiculous impossible speeds thinking no one will ever play this fast with midi clarity. I was wrong!

Good grief, never heard anybody play like this except the late Shawn Lane. You sir, are very talented

The fast part should be replaced with the word hyperspeed, since it really is faster than I've seen anyone else play....anything. At those speeds it must be a reflex action taking over, because the brain needs about 10 ms for the signal roundtrip and this stuff must be happening faster than that. (One can test their reaction time and see how fast they can react to a blinking light or a sound signal test. Somewhere around 30 or 40 ms would be the normal range) This really is the next level of speed - literally! Cheers!

I know that the action on that Vigier is real low but your string clearance must be like literally a fraction of a millimetre?! I can’t even imagine how you consistently gauge that and at those speeds? Then again the action is much higher on the acoustic and you’re STILL achieving something other worldly. It’s mind blowing!!

💪💪💪💪

Simply mind blowing

Roy, you are a ludicrous beast. Many thanks for all you do. Your achievements, both technical and musical, are outstanding! Cheers

Wow Roy, amazing as always!! I can see why you need that 120fps camera 🤣

1:52 HOLY FUCK

I routinely come to this channel to feel awful about my guitar playing.

You’re looking at getting The Phantom M320s camera to best capture the speeds you reach. Start at a cool $24000 though!

Makes me wanna throw my guitar at the wall.

Excellent exercises. I gonna take some of this to my daily finger training

So nasty so awesome such God given finger strength and coordination, truly unreal in every sense of the word, I would love to purchase some albums like well of heads, widow makers highway, anything I could get you tube does not have full albums for me to download like other artists. I want the full catalog of this great man, along with Shawn Lane you are my favorite Roy.

Incredible Roy 🙌

more of these please, thanks

I always get inspired watching you. You're a crazy beast on guitar. Love your works. Thank you so much for all the instructional videos ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I've only found out about you recently (someone mentioned your name in a discussion about Allan Holdsworth I was watching). I'm astounded by your abilities. As an old git of 70, much of what you play isn't really my cup of tea, but you're a remarkable musician. You must have sweated blood to achieve what you have. Respect.

Particularly enjoyed the tight, three way camera angles on the acoustic. What device are you using for holding the mobile phone?

Looking forward to the review of the Vigier Shawn Lane guitar, cheers

Ironically, because it's played so cleanly, the guitar sounds like another instrument - but it goes further: A melodic pattern starts to sound like something between a harmony and a timbre. So in multiple senses, one isn't sure what one is hearing, and that's quite refreshing. I've read about the stint with Dweezil and I imagine it sounded great. But imagine if Frank was still around. Maybe Roy would have become his synclavier "with eyebrows".

You are the flash of guitarist.

Thank you for sharing your music and extraordinary guitar playing! Also , if i was hoping to play with the same economy of motion as well as over 150 bpm. Do you offer lessons or have you created videos about how to improve picking speed? Of course i want to play music with lots of emotion but for me fast guitar playing does not always mean it is lacking in feeling. Anyway thank you if you see my comment ! I hope I can learn more about your technique to shredding up a storm 😊 !

Sounds like a videogame. Ridiculous licks

How do you not get carpal tunnel from this?

What’s that little gadget you’re attaching your phone to?

Shawn lane?

Is this dude even human?! 😳

Do you do skype/zoom lessons?

On lick 5 it looks like your hybrib picking when at its speed

Slow mo: difficult Full tempo: I might just as well try to play Shawn Lane. Or kill myself in some different manner.

How old are you?

The camera needs a higher resolution

I AM shit

Paging Keith Whalen

Ridiculous
