Man Plays Two Guitars Simultaneously

A very incredible feat. The video is a little rough at first, but it improves.

Must take serious concentration and skill to pull that off. Try to remember 2 guitars different notes and play them both at the same time. crazy 5/5

He is very good, especially because it is pretty hard to tap on an accoustic and get a good clean sound.

But mentally its like playing a piano, so it doesn't take as much concentration as you would think. In fact, he probably isn't thinking at all, he just does it.

5/5

big deal... you didn't hear hear of Michael angelo, did you?... oh, and there's also a video here of a guy playin' 3 guitars at the same time, but no one can surpass Michael Angelo (though his music sucks)... 4/5 cus those were acoustics....

Vizreel there are many people that have surpassed Michael Angelo Batio. While Steve Vai is my favourite guitarist I'd also have to say that there are plenty of others that even surpass him.

John Mclachlan
Al di Meola
Robert Fripp
Tommy Emmanuel

But to get back to the video:

Extremely good piece and he definitely has a great amount of skill!

His two hands are still doing the same thing as if he were playing one guitar. I'm not saying this easy but it's not as incredible as you would think...my question would be what's the point?

@ graft
niope, pretty sure no one can surpass Michael Angelo's speed... Malmsteen comes next after him at speed, oh and there's also Gilbert... Batio's music sucks, I didn't say he was a good guitarist, he's just really fast... and Friedman > Vai

Superhuman chops is a means to an end. Vai, Fripp and Holdsworth, have not only mastered when and what to play at speed, but when NOT to play, which is often just as expressive and magical.

Damn fine playing and not a bad song either. If you hired this guy into your band, would he get paid for 2 instruments or just 1?

.. people do this all the time, separating hand movements... Like the piano, playing one guitar, playing the drums... Nothing new although it was a good song and very well done.

the only reason michael angelo's might be faster than malmsteen is because the majority of what angelo plays barely strays from chromatic scale runs. if ur tryin to play fast play chromaticaly and of course your going to look super fast. use a little creativity and actually create music and of course your not going to be as fast, because your actually doing something, like yngwie. and just because vai doesnt showcase his speed as often as a lot of these other guys doesnt mean he cant play as fast or exceed them. which i know he does.
