Jazz guitar is always a weakness for me. Love his tone too.
But let me get out some of the responses early...
"Not impressed."
"No emotion."
"Meh"
"something something phrasing"
I'm sure I'm missing other mashups.

Technically quite impressive but there was something really rehearsed/wandery/excercise-ish about it?
hes like 12 though!
I don't think it was rehearsed, he probably knew where the changes were and the arrangement.But I agree his phrasing isnt there yet but by the time he's a bit older he'll probably be able to pull some very impressive lines off

I am not impressed, he has no emotion in his playing so it was meh to me. Can't quite place it but something about his phrasing bugs me

Holy fuck! This kid is gonna be amazing. He already is.
I agree, some of his phrasings were a bit out, whether intentional or not, it didn't always float my boat, but this kid is amazing technically and musically!
Plus, he's not hiding behind a perhaps slightly sloppy alternate picking hand with a load of distortion, something I know I am a bit guilty of.
* Actually, the more I listen, some bits I can't stand, some bits I am truly blown away by, namely the fast runs and sweeps. If he's improving, that's always gonna happen I guess. I'm just being ultra critical for the sake of it. This could well be the next Guthrie

"I am not impressed."
Seriously?
Not serious. Was just getting Remo's examples out of the way.
I actually lol'd.
It's videos like this that makes me wish I said YES to taking lessons, as opposed to sitting in my room playing Linkin Park in 6th grade...

i don't care if he's not doing any "feeling faces" or "closing his eyes emotionaly" the kid kicks serious amount of ass, period.

Awesome, better than a lot of guys 4 times his age or more. I don't think you should expect a 12 year old to be mourning his losses or battling a heroin addiction.

Sheesh, I don't think there is any guitarist under the age of the late teens that has amazing phrasing.
Real emotion (and the phrasing it brings with it) will come as the kid has more life experiences and more to draw from emotionally.
Give the kid some time. He already has the technique down, something guys 4 times his age doesn't, and most guys 4 times his age have even inferior phrasing to this, so once he develops his phrasing by the time he hits his 20s, he will be a fucking king.
I'm sure Joe Satriani probably never had great phrasing a few years into his playing when he was 16-17 and of course we could see by the time he started making albums when he was about 30, he had the emotion of life experiences to back him.
I know I certainly didn't really begin to understand good phrasing until not so long ago, now that I'm in my early 20s.
As for the rehearsed comment, well, most jazz just isn't as "off the cuff" as you'd expect. It's not like a jazz soloists walks into a session not knowing the chord progression and not having any understanding of how to play around that chord progression, so a jazz soloist (unless he's playing some wild avant garde and free jazz stuff I guess) is always going to have some amount of pre-learned licks they bring in with them.

Fuck that kid for being 4,000,000x better at guitar than I will ever be at anything in life. And fuck Sonar.

Being a Holdsworth and Chasain fan the phrasing doesnt bother me. His technical prowess is great. hes someone to watch out for

No feeling?
The statement coming from a forum where 90% of people is into death metal, deathcore or thrashmetal...and preferes tightness than feeling... I don't know what to think... I want to see clips from you playing with feeling...
That kid plays very well even though his small and fatty fingers.

Damn Christians!
The kid has a weight issue and I can tell by the way he plays that he watches a lot of anal porn.
