Chris Broderick of Nevermore, a complete guitar player
In: Acoustic guitars, Electric guitars, Megadeth, Nevermore Wednesday Jan 9,2008Well, this post is about Chris Broderick of Nevermore. There is a rumor on the internet that he is going to join Megadeth, Glen Drover wishing to leave the band due to family reasons. At least this is what some say…
However, this is not the reason of this post. The reason is an other one. After reading this news and watching a short movie with Chris Broderick playing five-octave arpeggios, I wanted to watch more and I did on YouTube. Of course, he can play electric guitars like hell, this it is what he does. He is a rock guitar player, he knows to shred and play both hands arpeggios, right?
OK, fine!!But now comes the thing that made me write this post! Man, this guy really knows how to play the guitar, beyond rock boundaries! He plays classical guitar and I am not speaking about dark arpeggios or futuristic sounds like Satriani does on his acoustic guitar, no! I am speaking pure classical guitar! Bach!
What do you know?Also see some jazz slap but I can not tell if he is good or not since I am not into jazz, but if you are, let us know what you think!

Damn, he has a really good classical technique too! You don’t often find shredders who can actually play classical guitar, there are a lot of fingerpicking pretenders, but not many who actually have the correct technique and play classical repertoire rather than “Dee”!

Indeed, that is what I am speaking about, Jon! This was the reason for which I posted this. Anyway, as far as I know, he spent his teen life playing 14 hours per day: 5h on electric guitar, 5 on classical guitar, 2 piano and 2 violin. Well…

Thanks for commenting,Andrew! Indeed, a great classical execution and as I have already said, this is the exact reason for which I posted this since the electric guitar execution of those arpeggios impressed me but I was expecting such thing while the classical guitar…well, not quite, since as Jon said, shredders don’t usually know how to play this style of music.

He’s not a guitar player, he’s just a musician, plain and simple. An awesome, talented musician.
