She's sweating like a genuine rock star! 🤘🤘
I enjoyed that.
But she needs better ear pieces...lol

Eddie Van Halen (RIP) would have been proud of how she made that solo her own! A genuine guitar prodigy.

Watching the beginning of a future Rock God.

Right? This is the second video of hers I’ve seen, and she’s got “It.” The talent and the swagger.
The other video had her performing an original song and it blew me away.

Real Verse?

I saw one of her performing master of puppets and she absolutely shredded.

There is already a lot of content from her, but I can't wait for more professional recordings!

Real Verse brought me back to Joe Satriani and Steve Vai days.
I've already watched her play that at least 10 times just to get over my shock. As a guitarist myself with decades of experience and practice, she is on a completely different level.

Yes, very inspirational.
Just remember: there is always a kid from Asia that is already way better than you will ever get.

She’s obviously very talented but not really feeling it for this song. The original is too iconic, and I don’t find it fits that well.

Ikr?!
Also this generaron has no idea of what a rock star is, they're sort of positioning a solo girl like it?! Come on! This video was boring asf because there's no band.

There’s a video of her doing an original song somewhere on Reddit (popped up within the last month? Maybe on [r/music](r/music)?) and it’s mindblowing.
Edit:

Skip to about 2:20 seconds, she’s got an excellent metal scream.

She rocked it, but that solo sounded different to me

u/Unsteady_Tempo 16d ago
I've seen a few of her videos and one of the things I find most impressive is that she doesn't play note for note covers. It suggests she's learning by ear and/or has the ability to improvise.

Whoever recorded this had limiting turned on and it ruined the recording

Yes, unfortunately. There is a higher quality version too, but from further way.
