Michael Angelo Batio is my guitar teacher’s teacher. He is simply one of the best metal guitarists in the world. And if you think I’m exaggerating here are just a few accolades he’s accumulated over the past few years:
2005’s Fastest Guitarist in the World.
He has performed over 500 shows since 2003.
January 2005 issue of Japan’s Younge Guitar Magazine listed Michael as one of the greatest guitarists of ALL TIME!
He invented and was the world’s first player of the twin-necked, left and right-handed Double Guitar.
So those are just to name a few. Simply put, this man is a magician of music. Michael Angelo started playing piano and composing music at age 5 and began playing guitar at age 10. Ever since then he’s had the knack to play and an relentless quench for setting the standards at an entirely different level.
This is from his Metal Method “No Boundaries aka Speed Kills” video series for beyond advanced guitarists. Enjoy and hopefully this will give you an insight into how great people are at guitar as well as give you some inspiration to keep playing so that you can achieve success as well.
