Incredible! it was 5 YEARS ago today when Guitar Shred Show.com was published. Indeeed Mr. Fastfinger devastated the guitar scene in 2005. Mysterious sensei and his his adventurous guitar lessons made millions of people jam the boogie all over the planet. Worldwide respect from guitar players was recieved and the website won many important multimedia awards globally.
 But this was just the beginning. Too many things to list here. Check out the history of www.MrFastfinger.net news.

To celebrate the 5 years of Guitar Shred Show I'm giving you this present. EXPLODING SOLO full tablature >

I wish to thank all the Fastfinger's friends and fans, supporters and the companies I've been fortunate to work together with. THANK YOU! It's been awesome and unbelievable five years. Let's make the next five years even better!

P.S. Mr. Fastfinger's next album is in preproduction. Strong material! Keep focused...

Just got back from a cool weekend trip to France. Saturnday afternoon did a master class at Tous en Scene -music school with the students. Revealing the exploding guitar secrets of Mr. Fastfinger. The day was hot and it was even hotter in the class room!
In the evening had the honour to join Mörglbl on stage during their concert. We did two of their songs and two Mr. Fastfinger songs (Wax on & Tapping boogie). So much joy and energy!

Thanks to Gérard all find folks at Tous en Scene, Christohe Godin, Ivan, Aurélien and all the students. It was a perfect guitar weekend.

Shredaholic.com has a review of Mad Guitar Records - Melodic Soloist album which includes Mr. Fastfinger track "Epic". It's a very nice review in general. But what makes me most happy is this part:

"One of the most notable tracks is ‘Epic‘, which as the title describes, is a track of epic proportions. The guitar playing courtesy of Mr. Fastfinger, is slick, distinctive, original and highly melodic, and the composition is fantastic; already I would call this one of my favourite shred guitar tracks of all time (and that’s not something I’d put in print carelessly)"
