Maccio has nothing on Vai. And besides, if he wanted to play fingerstyle he should get a classic guitar.

Thanks for making me feel old on my birthday. I was 12 in 1986.

I haven’t watched this in years!
Maccio really is pretty good.
He shred-syncs even better than he Miyagi-Do-Karate-Syncs!

Who knew he was such a method-actor??

Crossroads is one of those movies that every guitar player I ever met has watched. Maybe in 10 years every guitar player I meet will have watched Crazy? That will be the true measure of its success.

It was pretty awesome that Maccio actually learned how to “guitar-sync” to emulate the playing and was pretty damn accurate.
