Look at the crazy scalloping in the higher frets… I wonder if he shaved those down to allow a little extra play for pressure bends in that range or if he just wore the fretboard down that deep.
This stuff just doesn’t connect with me on any level. I just can’t imagine hearing some dude fuck around at the local music store while pretending he’s going to buy the guitar and think “a whole album of that, please.”
I still remember my guitarist going all colonel Kurtz is God over this dude. I think another guitarist on our label who had been touring Japan and EU for a while saw him play somewhere and started preaching about him on the weird string benders underground broadcasting system they seem to have. Funny, none of the drummers I knew ever called me up and said “you gotta hear this dude play”. Rock guitarists are a bit more fanboy, imo.
What a flex, plays part with one hand and mouth.
Unlike Jerry Seinfeld, he had no problem being a pirate.

Yingwee!
Ultra cool dude right here!
I love this guy!!!
I love his playing so much! Amazing technical skill!
I mean sure the technical skill is there, but where is the soul?

In all seriousness, as weird as it might seem this is kind of sloppy by Yngwie’s standards.
Saw this guy in a bar in Milwaukee
Will glam rock ever make a comeback?
Talented guy with an ego bigger than the universe.
Ronny james dip described him as “ a penis with fingers”
