Okay, I'm on a different computer now, and now my posts are showing up along with the quotes, I wonder if it was my web browser....There I was blaming and cursing VGchartz, I guess it was my PC, sorry vgchartz....

Anyway, Matt Makaha isn't my real name.  Anyone from Hawaii (where I live) would know immediately that Makaha isn't a surname but it's a place on the west shore of Oahu.  In real life, I'm quite a humble guy, but as I mentioned in a previous post as a reply to somebody else, I could go the route of "I totally suck...please watch my video" but I don't think that would work well either.  My real name is buried in my two YouTube channels, someone could probably figure it out, just sayin'....

Your music made my ears feel like they were going to bleed. You need to upload some cleaner and better sounding plays (for my tastes). :P Also, it would be a lot cooler if you were playing fast AND doing creative unique strums. You pretty much did the same thing over and over and over. Repetition is easier to speed.

You do have great speed though!

Thanks for the compliments!

As I said in a previous post, Matt Makaha isn't my real name, and in real life, I'm quite a humble guy.  Since I'm asian, well mixed asian-- I'm Chinese, Japanese, and Native Hawaiian, my real surname is Chinese, so I was originally going to name the video "Naked asians can't play guitar" but I wasn't sure if I should play the race card.

Also, believe it or not, guitar isn't even my main instrument.  I started playing piano when I was 6, tenor saxophone and electric bass at 12, and guitar at 13.  So guitar is actually my fourth instrument.  On my productions, I play all the instruments and sing, like in this song, which I wrote about my Dad after he passed away:

You are good man but that Patrick Cross someone posted kicked ass.

You are ok not great nor fast.all u. are doingg is notes

well....actually, some people like my acoustic playing better....

For example, this video:

or this audio track, this one has acoustic guitar on the choruses and solo.  I play all the instruments on this track, as I said above, guitar isn't my main instrument--in order it's 1. piano 2.tenor saxophone 3. bass 4.guitar, no tenor saxophone on this track though:

Nice, but I think Michael Angelo Batio is pretty fast.

The song starts at about the 1:12 mark, but he doesn't start to really get into it until about 2:50.

Don't be too modest.

Yngwie's a lot better than you, dude.
