My Guthrie Govan Interview Came Out

Sweet!!!

Hey Oscar... do you get that HD channel Paladia?


VAI's "Where the Wild Things Are" concert was on last night... I DVR'd it to watch later. :baimun:
 
Nice interview. I´ve visited two of his clinics. A very modest guy. He complained about his left pinkie, which pointed out to much. When I saw clips from some years ago, I realized that he was right. The latest clips I´ve seen does not show any pinkie defects; probably he has been working on it.
 
That's a really good piece JJ..:thu: I love the quote: "If you can’t sing it or feel it, then you don’t really own that scale".. a lot of people don't get that...and the bit about Hendrix "inventing funk rhythm guitar during the solo" :lol:..very cool.

Also, I don't think I'll be buying a Cornford amp anytime soon..I don't need the pain :cry:
 
nice interview.

his columns are way to complex for me. i have to get through the stuff i'm doing now before i can even think about touching it.
 
That's a really nice interview. I think they've mis-transcribed one of your questions about right hand muting, otherwise I just didn't quite understand it. I assume you tape your stuff? It would be really cool sometime to hear one of your tapes. It seems like you have a really good rapport with this guy. :)
 
DKH: Hm, Govan plays any style known to man extremely well. The only style I´ve never heard him play is free jazz?
 
Great interview! He is one of those guys that you see blowing your mind on YouTube but very few people know how much session work the guy does...he is definitely a big influence/inspiration for me as a player...

The sad thing is that Ed Yoon (then owner of Tone Merchants but now working at SUhr Guitars) invited me to that show and I blew it of since I thought Guthrie was just one of the instrumental shred cheese heads that populates LA like cockroaches. A few weeks later Ed sent m a DVD of the show and I felt like a huge idiot. :facepalm:

Ah, that is a bummer. Have you seen him afterwards, though? I went to his show in southern Norway a few months ago, and met him and Ed before and after the show. Best concert I've ever been to.

Just at the NAMM show...I got to hang out with him at the Cornford booth for a little bit but he was preoccupied with people trying to film him for the internet without his permission....:embarrassed:

It follows the conversation about how Cornfords are unforgiving amps.

Thanks guys. It felt like Mission Impossible trying finally hook up with him at NAMM but once we met everything just flowed. He's a perfect British Gentleman who looks like a hippie and smokes too much.
