I see elements of This is gonna hurt, Stars and Ballad of Death. correct me if I am wrong. I like DJ Ashba and I think some of you have been very harsh with your comments. there is no need to hate him so much, he is not cocky, he is down to earth type of person and he is a nice guy.
Ashba has written some really nice melodic guitar pieces that I enjoy playing every time I pick up the guitar. His stage performance is incredible and his playing improved a lot while touring with GNR.
@@lynnrinaldo6795 I didn't know who the fuck this dude was till he decided to talk shit about buckethead (who could smoke him at guitar with two fingers tied down) this pussy has nothing on Randy, dude is just a has-been that never was
Jezus people, show some fucking humanity! Such horrible hateful comments for no reason other than just bashing on someone who's having some fun. What happened to common courtesy, even if you're all safe behind a computer screen?
Very Cool mashup of Sixx.am Solos. I love how Ashba creates music by experimenting with different playstyles we all probably tried when we were beginners. (Hammering on strings with the pick, that funny pickscraping) THIS is how music is made, by trying out something that sounds different.
D.j. Ashba has such amazing talent and plays from the heart and it comes through in his music. I am so hurt and disheartened by some of the cruel and hateful comments I have read about this. What amazes me is here is a man who has made himself an entire life of doing what he loves and is worth a lot of money. He must be talented or he wouldn't be/have been in top name bands. His passion and drive for perfection make him incredible and his love for people makes him that much better. To those haters out there when you make money like DJ does and have a successful clothing line and a 1/16th of the following that he does then come back and say what you want but until then might I suggest you sit down and zip your lip! You look like a fool. Cannot wait to see what you have in store for us (pun intended) we love you and your music. #Sixx:A.M. #AFU #RISE 4-29-16 🌺🤘🏻🤘🏻🌺
+TheFabio you missed the point entirely. It's not about the money it's about the music and the message this group tells. I was just saying that when these haters are as successful as DJ and has some actual talent then maybe they can back up their opinion.
+Mama 2HaileyBug believe me, there are thousands of much more talented people in anonymity. Media exposure is not a measure of one's talent or worth. Being successful in the business world only indicates someone has good commercial representatives working for him. Otherwise, we wouldn't see so many cases of mediocre singers selling millions of albums. On the other hand, being a good musician is entirely up to him and if he bets we can't play pick scraping wah noise, well...
This is by no means hard but I can still see myself trying out some of these tricks to impress the non-players a bit. We guitarists tend to forget that we don't have to only play for ourselves or to impress other guitarists. Cheers.
If u r hating on this guys talent, u probably can't play it if u wanted to, that's the only reason or u hate ur self.i don't play this style of guitar but I give props when it's due,and he has some nice flash and licks...so FU haters
@ David Hernandez: I don't care about his playing. He is good at what he does, but "I bet" Eddie Van Halen can do that much better without being such a poser. But what's underneath that bandana? There's so much space between his forehead and the top of his skull. Is he hiding an amp under the bandana? I am sure it's not his brain.
Still my No.1 and most inspiring guitarist.. we share the same playing style, although u r way better player, got all my respect n support bro! And that's one killer lick, very unique and inspiring!
Funny when guitarist act like they didn't practice or develop a technique while learning to play something. I just play from the heart ya know? I have know idea what i'm playing ya know? lol give me a break
it's not that u didn't practice, but it's a combination of lots of different techniques that you forget them alone. but you put them in your solos because you have muscle memory that kind-of does it without thinking.
+Zaher Beaini He brought this lick to showcase on Guitarworld. Hes acting like they stopped him walking down the street lol! "maybe you can figure out what im playing cause I have no idea bruh"
+Lawrence Oneal yeah, you might be right, since it's part of the deal to show how to play it. but i was just talking from my experience, sometimes people tell me that's a nice lick, how did u do it? and I just don't know 100%
DJ I showed my grandson this video, he plays Guitar and he says your playing is “old guy bullshit” but he’s WRONG! He doesn’t “get it” but hopefully one day he will!! Until then I show everyone your music because it ROCKS!! Hope to see you Perform with Guns n Roses again one day.🤘🙏 🎸🤷♂️🤯🤘🤘
I'd have been an idiot to take the bet (I've only been practicing for about a year and I'm a slow-learner on guitar). But thanks for the demonstration. Perhaps some day I'll have half of a clue.
Dj has his shit together, might not be the most pleasant thing to listen to but the guys got style and can actually play his instrument. Rather than the comments from people that fuck up viberoto.
This is awesome. Some people just love to trash you just to trash you. They're just miserable, angry dickheads. You're the man, DJ. I hope to play even half as well as you someday.
I'm just learning & don't have an amp yet. I don't have the money right now. Anyone have suggestions on really good youtube teaching lessons? I have to go slow. Watching DJ bcuz 1. Love his playing 2. Sexy af!
+HeXx Henderson just google random number generator, get as many numbers u can, play them in any order u want, and u'll probably get something similar to this.
Awesome style mate. You know it sounds WAYYY more difficult than it is though bro. Any guitarist who has studied Ed's style for a long time could play this. Not trying to sound condescending whatsoever. Just keeping it real. Youre a great musician and I love what you do.... But i can play tha 😉
Can you please play the lick again without tons of effects and wah? If you actually want people to learn the lick then playing it clean is kind of essential.
Hey..the first lick actually sounds like Edgar Winter's synsasizer lick on his song Frankenstein.....Im a old guy now...used to play...I like you...a lot of negative people on RU-vid...your the one makin the money...ya lucky shit...lol
+larrya17 Except that Edgar was playing keys and he was actually playing something. Not just random wankery. I hear it though. That's the first thing I heard.
